While they were sitting over the couches facing one another watching the 3D screen created from Jeremy's space projection skills, Mia and Jeremy saw Bobby dig the earth up from the pit that had formed from Assassin No.10's landing. When the pit had enough room to fit a corpse, he put the dead body of Assassin No.10 into the pit, and he again covered the corpse with dirt and earth, and he buried it in the pit.
Later, they witnessed Bobby stealing a huge rock from among the many stones piled on the foot of the small hill and installing it just above the grave of Assassin with the code name No.10. He then began to carve some words on the stone with the small knife he had taken from the previous assassin he killed in Aphrodite City.
"Hmm, what're the words he is curving in that stone? I'm curious. Can you zoom in a bit so that we can see more clearly?" Mia demanded with a curious expression on her face.
"Okay," Jeremy concurred with her, as he had been planning to do the same, anyway. So he raised his right hand in the air toward the direction of the screen and made a spreading motion with his thumb and index fingers and as he did that, the screen began to zoom in toward the stone, and first, they saw the code name of the assassin curved on top of it in English, then next were the last words the assassin gave just before he passed away. Then they saw Bobby carving and Jeremy read out aloud in the guest room.
'A Great Sniper. If we met in a bar or somewhere, we might be friends and drink together. For the first time, this is the most exciting fight I have ever experienced. With respect.' From Bobby Bradford, the one who takes your life.
Then they saw Bobby stand up and cleaned the dirt away from his hands and his clothes and after that, he glanced up at the tallest Apocalypse tree around there and saw a man with a man donned in a black dress covering his face with a handkerchief.
"Hmm, don't you sense it too? This guy is dangerous." Mia then looked at the man currently nibbling the potato chips and asked. "Jeremy, can my son take that guy out?"
"Don't worry? Finally, the part of the fight I had been looking forward to was about to happen. Maybe it might turn out ?hard for Bobby to play with this guy but I'm pretty confident to say this to you; our boy will be perfectly fine." Jeremy replied with a goofy smile and he said, raising the potato chip package at her. "Potato Chips?"
"No thanks. Enjoy yourself." Mia said in a calm tone, even so, the motherly part inside of her kicked in and asked again. "Jeremy, if… I mean, if possibly the worst case comes up, then can you get there in time to save our boy?"
Jeremy grinned at her as a response and he continued eating his potato chips and they continued observing the screen attentively.
—-----------------------------
Back to the scene, somewhere in the centermost region of the wood, lying beside Aphrodite city.
Bobby was observing his new opponent on the top of the tallest tree with his right leg while lifting the other like a crane, and the Assassin No.1 was similarly observing Bobby with keen eyes, gazing down while trying to find out what the Origin Chi level was circulating within Bobby's body.
With a thought, Bobby activated his ocular skill as he hushed softly in his head. "Devil's eyes Skill," and in a flash, his eyes turned cyan for a fraction of a second and returned to his normal clear blue eyes. He then instructed the Unholy System to further scan the new opponent standing stiff on the tip of the tree.
With the sound of beeping chimed in his head, a new notification began to pop up in his mind.

"Aren't you going to whimper like last time?" The melodious voice of Cynthia chimed inside his head.
"What's the point? I'll not gain anything from it, anyway. There is nothing I get from simply complaining about it, right?" Bobby responded in his mind. "Cynthia, bless my luck. I think I'm really going to enjoy killing this bastard."
Suddenly, the man at the top of the three began talking to him. "Bradford, right?"
Bobby grinned at him, showing his teeth in response as he folded his hands, showing his lazy expression.
"You can call me No.1. Before we start, I have questions for you." The Assassin said in his icy, indifferent tone.
"Alright, at least, consider this as a last show of kindness from me. What is it? Shoot, I am ready to answer everything in the most honest way possible." Bobby replied as he stretched his body.
"Wow, you have quite the confidence, don't you? Good." The Assassin with the code name No.10 whispered under his breath, praising his temperament. He then further continued. "Mr. Bradford, the last time No.3, the Baldy guy went missing, was spotted with you in the Ghost's neighborhood town. So what happened to him? Did you kill him? If he is dead, then tell me where his body is? Also, can you still tell me where he is right now if he is still alive?"
"Wow-wow-woo, that's a lot of questions at a time," Bobby responded as he continued stretching his body as he moved hysterically side by side sometimes. "Well-well, I'll simply tell you the truth. That night, I spanked the hell out of his butt, and after learning that his body was really needed for my experimentation, I resisted my urge to kill that guy. Yeah, he's still kicking. And by the way, what did that guy eat exactly to gain more than a tonne of weight? Now, thinking about it, my arms are all sore from carrying that Baldy.... Oh, I'm sorry to tell you this, that you don't need to know where I hold him captive. Regardless, you won't understand even if I tell you where he's right now, and on the other hand, you're still going to die today, and it's pointless, anyway. So, is that all?"
"Fine, that'll work too. Later, I can browbeat you to confess the location." The Assassin No.1 said. "I have one last question for you…. Is that his tomb?"
"Yep, this's the best I can do for him. Oh, I see now. Hahaha… Even assassins are touched by their brotherhood and camaraderie. Hahaha…. There are quite a few surprises in store for me today. Alright, I'll give you this one more offer for you. If you want me to make another similar fancy tomb for you besides this tomb, then you have to go all out and amazed me with your skill." Bobby responded while he laughed loudly.
"You seem like a nice guy. Did he struggle when he die?"
"Hee-hee-hee, that's really rich and funny at the same time coming from a cold-hearted assassin like you. Hey, it will piss your boss royally for sure if he witnessed such a sight of tears from you." Bobby responded as he saw two drops of tears from the Assassin.
"Did he struggle?" The assassin with the black handkerchief face-mask asked again patiently,
"I don't think so. I finished him with a swift attack after listening to his final passing word." Bobby responded truthfully, with a casual tone.
"Good to hear. If that's the case, then I'll kill you less painfully. Get ready!" Then the Assassin with the code name No.1 made various hand gestures and at the same? time he made some incantations and he finally shouted with his palm toward the direction of Bobby. "Earth Spike!"
The next instant the earth just at the spot Bobby was stepping rose, making a pointy-shaped. He quickly dodged it but multiple other earth spikes came out and he continued moving briskly as he activated using his ninja movement skill, and he shouted, "Ist law of Ninja Movement Technique, Racing With the Wind!"
With a swooshing sound of the wind, Bobby continued dodging all the earth spikes.
The assassin, who was currently standing on the top of the tallest tree as he enchanted another spell and he shouted using his other hand, making several motions. "Gravity Magnification, 3x amplified!"
Bobby felt that he was suddenly slowing down, as his body felt that it was gaining weight all of a sudden. In the meantime, the assassin controlled the two spells at the same time and continued harassing Bobby finally, a spear made from the earth rose from the ground and passed through his belly as it caught him with an element of surprise unlike the previous version of the earth spike which just remained attaching to the ground, this version of earth spike in the version of a spear was more nimble and able to move freely detaching from the ground.
"Argh!"Bobby groaned in pain and dodged another two such spears made of earth as he stood on a thick branch of a tall tree nearby.
Immediately after removing the earthen spear, his highly regenerative ability of the vampiric bloodline kicked in and within seconds, the wound on his stomach closed, leaving not even a scratch where it was.
