Could you

England. With its rich history of knights and wars, kings and castles, and once having an empire where the sun would never set, there is no need to wonder why it was chosen as one of WS's home bases.

Also, being the only one having the WS base located in a castle. It wasn't hard to make it fit for being a WS base. Since there are so many in England, the representative of England picked out his favorite castle, and after a bit of renovation, he made it suitable for being a WS base.

Alex, Jason, and Vanessa made their way to the castle, asking anyone they met if they had seen his father. As the three of them headed to the board room where the decisive meetings are held, Jason heard.

'If you're looking for your father, he is out for two days.'

Jason turned to face a man peacefully enjoying the soothing sunlight, sitting on the solid frame of the window, gazing out while enjoying a smoke.

The man had a carefree but a comforting atmosphere around him. If one only looked at his hair, which was fully gray, one might suggest he was in his 70's or even 80's, but his physique said otherwise.

His long hair was tied back with a few strands hanging on the sides. Having aquatic eyes and a neatly trimmed beard, the same color as his hair. No matter how you look at him, he was charismatic despite being in his 50s.

For the first time in two days, Jason's lips curled upwards.

'Long time no see, Agent Jason.'

'Uncle David.'

Jason instantly felt a quick tap on his head, but it soon got turned into a head pat.

'Idiot, you're supposed to call me Agent David when we're here.'

'My apologies, Agent David.'

'Hi, Agent David.'

Vanessa greeted her father. It was a heartwarming welcome.

'So, what do I owe the pleasure of being in the presence of the youngest WS Agent in history.'

'Youngest? Aren't you and Vanessa about the same age?'

Alex dropped a random question to make his presence known. Vanessa felt she should be the one to answer Alex's question.

'Technically, yes. We both became the youngest people ever to clear the WS agent test at the age of 17. We also became WS agents on the same day, but since I'm 5 months older than Jason, the title belonged to him.

'138 days do not make 5 months.'

Jason corrected Vanessa as if she had made a colossal blunder. Those 138 days must be really getting to Jason.

'Wanna know a secret?'

Vanessa put her hand near her mouth to pretend to be saying something sacred.

'He also got another title other than this. Want to know what it is?'

'Do not say it.'

Jason made a vain attempt.

'Batman!'

Alex was intrigued and also surprised to hear it. He looked at Jason.

'Coincidence?'

'No.'

Was it really a coincidence that Alex also nicknamed Jason Batman. Who knows? But ever since he was a child, Jason had always loved Batman and wanted to be like him.

'That cold and stiff voice, is that you, Jason, my boy?'

A voice came from behind, which Jason recognized immediately along with everyone else except for Alex. Ever since the treatment, Alex's senses had become sharper, yet he was confused to hear such a voice.

A voice which was too high pitched for a man but too deep for a woman, a young enthusiastic voice.

They all faced the direction of the voice to see a person in a lab coat. Walking and waving at them.

'Professor.Richard/Rachel.'

The person's figure was too confusing. His chest seemed broad like a man, but the way her body curved was like a woman. Having silky silver hair, not below her neck that shone brightly with emerald green eyes.

He had facial features of both man and a woman but tipped towards the feminine side. Calling her a transgender would be somehow wrong. What was his biological gender remained a mystery to Alex as she came near.

'It's been a while, Jason.'

'It has. Professor. Richard/Rachel'

'Where's Prof. Richard?'

Alex asked, not believing what he was seeing.

'Silly boy, I am Prof. Richard.'

She answered.

Then who's Prof. Rachel?'

'I am.��

He answered. Alex, just like everybody who met him the first time, was confused.

'Are you a man or a woman?'

He thought it was the fastest way to clear his misunderstanding.

'Yes'

The answer made the situation even more confusing.

'Please call me Rei Rei.'

He winked at Alex. Alex looked at Jason in the hope that maybe he could save him.

'Alex, show some respect. That there is the first and only modern polymath.'

Polymath is one who has mastered many branches of knowledge. It was not unusual that the leading pioneers and inventors were polymath in the 15 and 16 century. Leonardo Da Vinci, being among the greatest of all.

However, as the depth of knowledge became deeper and deeper, the number of polymaths gradually decreased. Finally, when each branch of knowledge became an abyss, their kind had gone extinct. Not even Einstein, Nikola Tesla, Richard Freyman, or Stephen Hawking was a polymath. Though all of them were grandmasters of their branch of knowledge.

It was thought that today it would be impossible for someone to become a polymath until Rei Rei came along. Revolutionary ideas come out of his mouth like sweat on a hot summer day.

Rei Rei has 6 PhDs and M.Phil in 12 subjects, excluding the M.Phil of the PhDs, making a total of 18 different subjects.

'You flatter me too much, Jason. I'm simply curious about everything.'

'You're a polymath?'

'That's what people are calling me nowadays.'

Rei Rei grabbed Alex's shoulders and looked into his azure blue eyes.

'And right now, I'm tremendously curious about you.'

He began to shake Alex violently, which even surprised him at how much strength Rei Rei had. Her eyes sparkled with curiosity like a child seeing something pretty for the first time.

'How did you obtain superhuman abilities, I absolutely must know.'

There was a tiny amount of madness behind Rei Rei's eyes, which made Alex a little wary of him. All the more wanting to know her sex. Alex saw a chance and grabbed it.

'Let's make a deal then, I'll let you examine my body if you let me examine yours.'

'Alex!'

Jason scolded him for proposing such a shameless deal to the head scientist of WS.

'Deal.'

Rei Rei grabbed Alex and quickly headed towards her lab. Getting his body examined in exchange for Alex's body was a steal for him.
