"I received some basic training before, but..." Forge hesitated a little before speaking in a low voice, "I never killed before."

Lenny sighed and changed the topic, "By the way..." He looked at the Apex, "What's your name? I didn't have the chance to ask."

"Oh? I'm Forge Umbra. The lead scientist in biology and genetics of this station." She answered with some pride in her voice.

"What about the kid?" Lenny was clearly uninterested in her position on the ISU.

"I don't know." Forge thoughtfully scratched her chin as she tried hard to remember. It didn't took long before realization came to her, "I remember something. The kid came with some important people of the UHG, Hylotl Government. He's probably the son of one of the representative that came today."

Lenny glanced at the kid and thought, [So, this kid is their target... Fujiwara Saito... why I always end up in troublesome situations...?] Lenny helplessly sighed at his terrible luck.

...

Independent Scientific Union's Stationary s.p.a.ce Station. Some minutes earlier...

[Why the h.e.l.l he would choose this place!?] Lenny complained inwardly as he sat on the comfortable couch of the reception hall of the ISU's s.p.a.ce Station.

After parting ways with John, Lenny immediately resumed his hunt for Starkid.

But it didn't go well. The infamous Novakid, Starkid, disappeared out of thin air. There was no clues, nothing at all that help Lenny locate the person.

Frustrated, Lenny went to near the Frontier on Beta Sector, a place which was now completely lawless after the Terrene Protectorate fell.

With the destruction of Earth, the Protectorate's Outposts, s.p.a.ce Stations, and bases near the the Frontier were all raided by outlaw groups, Rebellion's members and Occasus Cult's members.

The planet he went was a wasteland of death and criminals, and also the headquarters of the Bounty Hunter Guild.

He just went there to fill up with alcohol and get drunk, but he found something he wanted, a clue.

It was a inconspicuous letter left by a mysterious person.

The barman told Lenny that the man said it was to give only to the Bounty Hunt known as Lenny and no one else.

Opening the letter, Lenny found out that the sender actually knew about his real ident.i.ty as a previous member of the Starkid Outlaw Crew, and also stated to know where Starkid was currently hiding.

Lenny was suspicious but still followed the coordinates written on the letter and reached the ISU's s.p.a.ce station.

Now, Lenny was sitting on the lobby waiting for the sender to appear.

He was getting impatient since he had been sitting for almost one hour.

There would be a lot of visitors, businessman and scientist come and go. They often curiously glanced at Lenny to know why would there be a Novakid in such place since it was common sense that Novakids don't like science and neither have any interest toward it.

"Mister Lenny?" A normal looking middle-aged man approached from behind Lenny and cautiously asked.

Lenny turned around and took glance at the man.

The middle-aged man was wearing a formal clothing and looked like a Butler which was very strange to have one in a place like this s.p.a.ce station.

"Yes, I am." Lenny answered while keeping a close eye at the person.

He couldn't tell if this was really the sender of the letter, which by the way...who would send a letter in this day and age?

"Oh, thankfully I'm right." The man sighed in relief and flashed a kind smile at Lenny, "Director Yang wishes to see you, Mr. Lenny."

[Director Yang!? Morgan Yang!?] Lenny was dumbfounded. Morgan Yang was a legend in the ISU. As one of the founders of the Union, he was also the one who rose the organization to the pinnacle that it was today. Lenny was very surprised that such legend wanted to see him.

"Are you sure it's me?" Lenny pointed at himself and asked.

"Yes, certainly." The middle-aged man nodded, "Director Yang said that he wanted to see a yellow Novakid, named Lenny, with an Omega brand on his face. This certainly can only be you."

"Really? But I have to meet with someone else..."

"The person who sent the letter was Director Yang, Mr. Lenny."

Lenny stared at the man, searching for any falsehood on his expressions an body language, but he found nothing. This showed that the middle-aged man was telling the truth.

"If you follow me, I'll bring you to Director Yang." The man politely made a gesture for Lenny to follow him.

Lenny nodded and made up his mind to go and see what Morgan Yang had to say.

The moment Lenny stood up, something caught his attention.

Glancing at the door, he saw a group of people enter the lobby.

There was a stern middle-aged male Hylotl with a small male Hylotl kid with light blue scales walking beside him, curiously looking around, wanting to see everything that was in his surrounding.

Around these two people, multiple Hylotl guards wearing some orange armors with menacing looking weapons on their hands.

Their eyes constantly scanned the people in the lobby, searching for any possible threat.

As soon as their eyes fell on Lenny, their eyes dangerously narrowed.

They suspiciously stared at the Novakid. It was evident if someone there could represent danger towards the middle-aged male and the kid was obviously Lenny since he was the only person around that wasn't wearing some formal clothing or lab coat.

It was also common sense that most Novakids were outlaws, hitmans, or Bounty Hunters.

Be either of them, it was clearly a danger towards their master, that's why the moment they caught sight of Lenny, their grips over the weapon tightened.

Lenny only looked at them for a few seconds before walking away with the middle-aged man.

[This has nothing to do with me.] Lenny thought while walking beside the man as he led both of them towards the elevator.
