Bobby was a fast learner, as his speed of progress in martial training was considerably fast, even beyond what Kemino could even imagine.

During these four months, Kemino taught everything he knew, beginning with the basics to the extremes of samurai, then to what he considered being his best skill: the skills of the ninja.

During these four months, Bobby followed the same routine, starting with going to his office early in the morning along with Diana. He would continue his various projects on contemporary medicines and further experimentation on blood. He even started experimenting with vampiric blood, which he took from Diana. And he even made a remarkable success, making a way to refill vampiric blood in his system by making blood pills. These pills were designed like a capsule filling with concentrated three liters of blood. They came with Diana's blood and some others were from human blood.

Bobby could ingest a blood pill containing vampiric blood when it ran out. And so it came pretty handily to him.

After hours of his research, he would go back directly to Diana's residence and he would practice various arts under the strict guidance of his Sensei, Otsuka Kemino. Then he would sleepover in the castle. These happened for the past four months.

It was earning morning of the first day of the fifth month. Inside the dining hall of the castle, Bobby, Kemino, and Diana had a morning breakfast like usual.

Kemino suddenly spoke, "Bradford, this is it. I have taught you everything I have learned all my entire life. I think I have nothing left to teach you. So, let's end our martial class of today onward. If you have anything, you can always come to me. Alright. " He then stood up and placed a notebook over the dining table just beside Bobby. "Practice this on your own. I have already written my comprehension in it but you need your own comprehension if you wish to go farther in the future." Then he looked at Diana and said politely, "Young miss, my work here is done. I have spent four complete months here avoiding my duty as director of my institute. Now, it's time for me to say goodbye to you."

"Gramp, can you please stay for another day?" Diana pleaded as he was the only family she accepted in her life, and after he left, she'll be all alone again. So she was extremely reluctant for his departure and it was also suddenly.

"Hah!" Kemino sighed and replied, "Young miss, don't worry. I will come here soon again. Now, I gave some of your family's important tasks to complete and one colossus Institute to run. So, I can't. Alright, this is it. I'll take my leave then." Soon he flew away in his flying car, finally living the island.

Bobby and Diana watched his car leaving and becoming smaller and smaller on the far horizon, and soon disappeared from their sight.

Bobby turned and saw Diana's two long tears. So he hugged her from behind and asked in his sweetest voice, "Are you all right, Diana?"

Diana quickly wiped her tears and replied, snorting, "Hmm, who cares about a stupid old man? I'm fine, totally."

p "Hey, I think you care for my Sensei. Alright, don't hold back. You can tell me everything. I'm all ears." He whispered to her while they swayed lightly, under the morning sun while they basked in its warm and pleasant rays.

Diana felt a strong sense of security around Bobby. So she opened up her feelings. "You know. Even though I'm the fabulous princess of the Carver family that everyone envied, there was an immense hole which nobody could fill in my life…."

"Mmm-hmm," Bobby replied softly and caressed her hands.

"Actually, I have never met or seen my parents. And I was literally brought up by him. As I grew up, I understand that even though I have everything I need, I came to understand that I'm an orphan. And I envied other kids my age who have their parents. Gramp Otsuka filled that hold for me. For me, he did everything a parent should do for their children, and I also admire him as my parents."

"I understand your sentimental feeling for him and what my Sensei means to you?" Bobby then turned her body, caressed her face, and said lovingly. "But don't you think you are old enough for those feelings? Now, you have me. And I don't like you to be overly mawkish for those things." He then pulled her head over to his chest and asked, "Don't you hear my pounding heart?"

"Yeah, it's beating as if it was about to burst. Are you okay?" Diana asked with concern.

"It's your fault, little butterfly. Your face is so beautiful that the morning sun catches it. And I can't help myself. Seeing your face causes my heart to pound."

"Hmm, so, corny." Diana chuckled on hearing his honey-coated words. And her mood quickly lightened up.

Both embraced each other as they gazed at the island's beautiful scenery for two hours.

"Darling, we are late for the office. You get ready. We'll leave within fifteen minutes." Bobby said, and the two returned to the castle.

After half an hour, the two also began their journey toward the direction of Aphrodite city on the black flying beauty.

—----------------------------------------------

Aphrodite City,

A man was currently sitting crossed inside a room of a building in the center of the city, cultivating his Origin Chi and holding a green stone. It was as if he was sitting on a floor that was covered with various strange drawings that helped him extract the energy from the magical stone. The greenstone was not some simple stone. It was a magical stone that contained a large concentrated amount of natural Origin Chi inside it. The man had long crisscrossed scars over his face. It was none other than the assassin with the code name, Mr. Spade.

He muttered a spell softly. As he performed a specific form of breathing exercise, one could see a greenish-like gas ejecting from the stone and infusing into his body as it was polished through the magical array formation on the floor. This continued for an hour, and the color of the stone became colorless and broken down into powders. And the eyes of the finally opened, and he stood up and jumped into the portable swimming pool attached to his room. Having cleaned himself, he dressed in his full black clothes and wore the mask. "You can all come in."

A group of seven men came into his room in different shapes and sizes. There was a bald, muscular guy among the No.3. They all looked down, carefully avoiding glances at their boss.

"Relax, I'm all dressed up. You can all look up." Mr. Spade ordered.

The seven glanced up and slowly opened their eyes while praying to their gods. Seeing that the boss was in his fancy clothes, all of them sighed and thanked their gods for showing mercy to them in their minds.

"No. 3, you tell me. Any progress in finding anything related to Bobby Bradford? Alright, give me all the detailed reports without slipping anything." Mr. Spade asked in his usual calm tone.

The baldy with the scorpion tattoo over his head took a step and began his report with respect. "Sir, as per your instructions, we did some digging and discovered that he was the only male child of two high school teachers, Jeremy Bradford and Mia Bradford. And he also has an elder sister named, Margaret White. Recently, their family moved to the Aphrodite City of the Dwarka planet from Mother Earth. Under the government records, it says that Bobby Bradford gains a scholarship program under the sponsorship of Captain Jean Carlos, the hero of the entire Delta Belt region which gave them to live here in the Aphrodite City. Additionally, he is appointed Assistant Director of the University of the Aphrodite, the youngest person to hold such a position. For the entire four months, we fail to find his trace inside the Aphrodite city. We put surveillance around their mansion in district A13 and after finding that he is still not coming back to his home. The seven of us went separately to the University of Aphrodite to get information about Assistant Director Bobby Bradford and found out that he was the exact person we were looking for, but no one in the entire University knew of him nor had any of them ever seen him. Sir, this is all we can get on him."

"Hmm, interesting. This boy is not so simple as just the Defect. Just barely 17 and already a professor at the University. It's been four months and no one in the institute knew about him. This means he has some strong backing to even have such privileges. And more importantly, the target was already aware that someone had put a hit in his head. So, it's pretty reasonable of his absence." He pondered for a while and gave his order, "Alright, now stop doing unnecessary things. Just watch after his family. Soon he will come back."
