Chapter 46 Tier-1 Official Mission

"Boy, I can't do that," Cynthia answered sincerely.

"Why not?" Bobby asked, "Don't you think it's time for you to come clean to me if you want me to trust you completely?"

"Hmph!" Cynthia sighed and explained, "Even though I'm the Guardian of the Unholy System, I still have some mandatory rules to abide by or the Unholy System will eventually wipe my existence out itself. There is so much I like to say to you. But, sorry, my hands are tight."

"Fine, just forget it." Bobby sat down on his mechanical chair indolently.

"By the way, don't you still trust me?" Cynthia questioned languidly, as her tone sounded quite earnest.

"Yep, isn't that obvious? Mm-hmm, I really don't like to hurt your feelings, Cynthia, and also, don't take it the wrong way?" Bobby replied sternly. "But wouldn't it be weird if I trust you from the get-go, someone I knew little about? Moreover, you look like someone who is really professed with the art of secrecy… Um… more likely in our human tongue, we term it as espionage. There is something about you that I can't really figure out….er….you are clouded with mysteries in a strangely dangerous way."

"Hee-hee-hee, espionage! Are you really going to play like this?" Cynthia giggled and further added, acting all ingénue. "Mysterious-I'll take that as your way of compliment. However, do you think it's a bit extreme to label someone like me as dangerous when I am na?ve, pure, and beautiful?"

"Na?ve?" Bobby was flabbergasted by her words. And he wondered in his head, "Na?ve, my ass, who do you think you are taking me for? I had almost died in your little cave the previous day, and you are telling me that now? In addition, most importantly, you knew about the Holy Grail. Just simple words about it from your mouth could ignite a spark of colossus war, nevertheless in the Galactical level. And you're telling me how na?ve you are? This is fucking hilarious." He then sniggered coldly.

"Look, I know I may be a bit of a handful for you and I feel you. But believe me, I will never betray you." Cynthia assured him firmly. "Oh, I can't spill out anything regarding the Holy Grail for now. But I can do something else." "Hmm, this might be of some help, I hope." A soft sound chimed inside his head with the snap of her fingers.

Beep! Beep! Beep!

Soon, a notification popped up in his mind with the beeping sounds.

Bobby checked it, without much ado, and saw it as:

[An Official Mission: Activated! (With an emergency request from the guardian.)]

[Tier-1-Mission: Kill 3 experts with 5 main energy levels.]

[Reward: Some pieces of information about the Holy Grail. Also, the next Tier-2-Mission will be unlocked,]

[Time limit: Lifetime.]

"Hee-hee-hee, what do you think? Satisfied?" Cynthia asked with a smile.

"Thank you, Cynthia. And I'm sorry about my previous words." Bobby extended his gratitude toward her.

"Eh, I understand," Cynthia replied sophisticatedly.

Tring! Tring! Tring!

"Assistant Chief Bobby, the Chief is on the line. Care to connect her line?" An AI in the female voice attached to his main desk spoke abruptly, interrupting their discussion.

"Okay, connect," Bobby ordered.

"Hello, boy, can you hear me?" Scarlette Chanel's mellifluous voice was heard through the communication channel.

? "Yep, babe. Loud and clear. It's not been long, and you are already calling me. Miss me that much?" Bobby teased her.

"Miss you?!" Scarlette Chanel scoffed. "Alright, I'm busy right now. Check your private military account on our official site. I have already sent the details regarding your first assignment. Good luck with it." And she immediately disconnected the line.

Bobby smiled wryly and said to himself while shaking his head, "Do I scare her off that much? I guess not." He then used the AI and began to check over the file sent by Scarlette Chanel.

After checking all the pieces of information on the file, he muttered to himself, "So you want me to do further research on human's and Ogarian's blood under the influence of Titan Might serum? Ho-ho-huh, this is the most interesting one. And I have long since been interested in researching this serum. Now, I can finally study how the hell this serum could create something so amazing like Origin Chi inside the human body." As he had long since been experiencing a fair share of discord from the current social trend, owing to being a Defect, he had always been dreaming of having Origin Chi one day. So he wished to get his hand on the Titan Might serum.

"Hmm, aunt Mia and Margarete must have been freaking out right now. I must get home soon." He thought since he had not returned to his house after leaving it with Captain Jean Carlos.

After gathering some earlier data regarding the very assignment, Bobby picked his backpack and set it for his home, driving the red Yamamoto R-Cc12 SUV.

District A-13, Aphrodite City,

It was somewhere in the western region of Aphrodite City. Various buildings and resorts were neatly constructed, unlike any other place in the city. Compared to others at other places, those buildings looked somewhat outshined, outdated modeling and designed. It looked verdant as various lushly green trees and shrubs were grown all over the region in many well-organized patterns. The good thing was that it was less populated and mostly was quartered, especially for the military personnel and their families. So it was mostly quiet, as well as naturally scenic places one could find in the entire city.

In a recreational chair sat a beautiful young lady, enjoying her tea while basking in the mild afternoon sunshine. "He didn't return yesterday. Both mom and dad had also left for their little get-together party for their High School. And now I'm all alone here in this strange place. This really sucks. " said the lady, while reclining her back leisurely.

Out of nowhere, a red flying vehicle warped out of blue just above the mansion and landed not far away from the lady.

"Wow!" she exclaimed, gazing enviously at the vehicle.
