You would think the first thing Cain would do after finishing his investigation would be to report on it.
You would be dead wrong.
Cain barely remembered he was in an investigation in the first place, and after a brief stop to see his parents and show off in his village, Cain has made a beeline straight back to Cabal. Now, he's hunting for that blasted blue-haired woman.

He'd eventually find her out in the yard, sitting on a bench and popping coins into a pouch. She's mumbling something under her breath, over and over.

...
"What the fuck are you doing?"
Cain asks, walking over.

Kaia's skin crawls at the very sound of his voice, and she looks up at him with a frown.
"Since when do you stick your nose in my business?" she'd scoff.
But she'd answer him anyway, just in the spirit of letting him know she's hard at work on her path to Godhood.
"I'm working on investigating what happened to Phobos. It's in my best interest."

"Since I've been better than you."
Cain smirks. His good mood is suffocating.
"Oh, you're still working on that, are you? Plodding along?"

Kaia rolls her eyes.
"I've made a leap of progress, you dreg. And what's with you? Did someone drop their morals and let you squirm around on top of them for ten seconds?"
She didn't like how...happy he seemed.

"Ha ha ha... ha ha ha... you're so funny, Kaia."
His laugh is sarcastic, but the smirk never goes away.
"A leap of progress, you say? So you've done....what? Possibly maybe found a way to see how the last one died? You haven't even started your own actual journey, you're just looking at other people's?"
He leans in, hands on his hips, a shit-eating grin on his face.
"Tell me. How does second place feel?"

She gives him an incredulous look from the audacity he had to even get closer to her. No, the fact he even came over here at all.
She would have addressed any of the stuff he said before, but his final statement took precedence.
"You should already know how it feels, Rhamos."

"Me? Oh no. I wouldn't even begin to understand what that means."
His grin, somehow, becomes even wider.
"You know, since I climbed Mount Olympus and became a God, myself."

Kaia stares at him evenly.
Before bursting into such hard laughter she was already crying.
"Yeah? What'd you settle on? Cyclopes?"
Not that she even believed him, but, that's probably the best he'd get if anything.

"Not quite."
He's nonplussed in the face of her disbelief.
"I faced Ares, God of War, after already defeating a Harpy. By finishing his trials, I became Deimos, God of Dread and Terror."

Kaia's amusement suddenly becomes completely erased. Despite his tall-tale, one part irritates her.
"Excuse me, I don't think I heard you right. You're trying to become WHO?!"

"Haven't you been listening?"
Cain laughs, shaking his head.
"I'm not trying. I became Deimos."

"Are you fucking kidding me?!"
She stands up from her seat, making sure to be all up in his face.
"Deimos?! Are you fucking obsessed with me?!"

"Excuse me!?"
Whoa. This is a complete turnaround, as Cain stops leaning over. He doesn't want to get headbutted.
"What are you fucking talking about?"
