Prologue

5: 00 a.m. March 7,2020.

"Jake!! Jake!! Oi! I said wake up dumb son!". Hart Assass shouted then slaps his son's face.

"PAK~PAK~PAK~!!"

"WTF! Dad I said not the face!! What would you do if I can't marry because you damaged my beautiful face, huh?!". Jake shouted back while rubbing his face.

Smiling creepily, Hart said, "What did I tell you about not paying attention to your surrounding? What if I was an assassin trying to kill you?".

"Tsk". Jake answered, " First of all you are actually an assassin, second, who would dare assassinate the son of the assassin king and third, why would you always go for my face just because yours is not as pleasing as mine?!".

"Hmph, get up and prepare for your morning training". Hart said then he went outside the room.

Sighing, Jake was left inside the room. Brushing his teeth and looking at the mirror, he saw his eyes was almost covered by his bangs and his shoulder length hair was messy. He combs it and tied it to make himself look tidy. Talking to the mirror he said, "No matter how many times I look at you, your face looks so perfect and handsome. Tsk~Tsk~Tsk".

He finished his morning preparation and went to the basement. Opening the door of the training room he saw many poles standing inside the room.

His father was standing on a pole with a serious face. Trying to find out why, he asked jokingly, "Why so serious~?", while mimicking Joker's voice.

Looking at his father's eye that is telling he ain't taking that joke, Jake also started to become serious, "What happened?".

"Nothing happened but something will". His father said calmly as he suddenly sprinted towards Jake.

Surprised by the sudden attack Jake was thrown away backwards until he hit the wall. "What the Fack?".

"Tsk, that attitude of yours will surely get you killed". His dad said while releasing his murderous aura.

Jake who sensed the murderous gaze suddenly became serious. His eyes sharpen and his gaze became menacing. He sprinted forward and punched his father but was blocked. Then he twisted his ankle and threw a kick but was countered by a kick from his father.

The two continued with their martial arts exchange until a dagger appeared from his father's hand. Jake was shocked by his father's action and asked, "Are we doing it for real?".

His father answered calmly, "What do you think?".

Jake took his dagger from the side of his legs and assumed the same pose with his father. He started jumping from pole to pole trying to confuse his father. Suddenly, he attacked his father's arms with his dagger.

Calmly watching Jake move, his father blocked it with a dagger and punched Jake in the stomach.

"Augh!", Jake moved away from his father while massaging his aching stomach.

Then suddenly Jake sprinted forward and attacked his father's face. It was his father's turn to be surprise. Tricking the enemy that you are injured then suddenly attacking is a good move for an assassin. It would lower the guard of your enemy making an opening for an attack.

Although his father was surprised, due to countless battle that he experienced, he calmly dodged his head to the side and avoided a clear hit from the dagger. What he did not expect is that Jake's dagger managed to scratch his face.

A streak of blood formed on the side of his face. Covering it with his hands while smiling, he said, "Okay, let's stop for today".

Panting, Jake asked again, "What's this all about?".

"Clean yourself first and take a shower, let's talk while eating". His father walked towards the door and left the training room.

Sighing, Jake thought, "What's with the old man, acting so damn mysterious?". Jake took a shower and prepared their breakfast.

His father came out of his room in a business suit and luggage then he joined his son for breakfast. Wondering where his father is going Jake asked, "What's with the getup, where are you going?".

Keeping a serious face while staring at his son for a few seconds then smiling he said, "You're a grown-up now, I can leave you without worrying".

"What? Where are you going? How about my training? The living expenses?".

"I am going overseas for about a year or two. Here's a debit card for your living expenses for about a month, I'll just deposit every month so you won't spend too much on unnecessary things and as for your training, just continue what you have been doing until now". His father said while giving Jack the debit card.

His father added, "All you need now is experience and I plan to send you some targets while I am away. You can already wound an assassin king at your age so just continue and persevere".

His father stood up and left the house. "Take care of yourself".

"What? Leaving just like that"
