Chapter 3 A Genius Military Strategist!

Inside the director's office, three men were currently sitting on the sofas. They all wore suits. They were currently drinking coffee comfortably while checking Bobby's profile on a holographic 3D- screen projected from a small ball floating in the air.

"Director Kemino, he is a bloody 'Defect'!" One of them spoke in a British accent. He was a well-built Caucasian blonde man.

"Yeah, Captain Jean Carlos. But, this boy is a genius in every other field. Check this out. " Director Kemino replied and ordered the AI, "Silla, show me all the academic achievements of Bobby Bradford."

Then, the white ball started flashing a series of files one by one. At first, the files were regarding his academic records, showing the aces record on multiple majors.

"Except for being a Defect, he is truly a genius. Boss, what do you think?" Captain Jean Carlos praised him and asked toward the petite, middle-aged man.

"Umm! Good. Excel in all the fields of Space Science and Technology. Also, he is only 17. You're Right, he is a goddamn genius! Alright, we will take him in. " The petite middle-aged man replied and continued sipping his coffee.

,m "Gentlemen, Hee hee hee! I have more surprises for you." said Director Kemino with a chuckle and instructed the AI again, "Silla, show me all the hidden files of Bobby Bradford."

The holographic 3D- screen started flickering and ten files appeared on it. All of them were marked as top secrets and the details of the contents were mostly redacted.

The other two looked at the screen and they became more serious.

"Wow! " Captain Jean Carlos exclaimed and said, "Hey, I know that one. That is the core strategy plan of my recent mission in the Delta belt region. Director Kemino, I think you are the one who made that military strategy. And who the hell is this lad? "

"Gentlemen, I am showing these files because you two have already reached enough security clearance level for these files." Kemino said and continued, "Yep, your recent military plans were all plotted by him. You should be more thankful to him. And one more thing, Bobby knew nothing about his achievements. I am keeping him in blindside until now."

"Then why are you taking his military achievement points?" Captain Carlos asked. Taking someone else's military points was a great crime.

"Captain, that is a bit rude!" The petite middle-aged man spoke.

"Hahaha, I don't mind at all. And I can explain. Silla, show me Article no. F78847 of the military code of conduct. "

On the screen, the details of it came out. It was written that if a minor gained some military achievement points, then it would be passed to his or her guardian. If even the guardian were also a civilian then, the points would go to his or her mentor. The mentor must pass the military points to him or her when he or she had joined the military.

"Hee hee hee, I will pass his points to him soon." Director Kemino chuckled and said.

"But, he is a Defect. So, he can't join the military." Captain Jean retorted.

"That's the reason I am inviting you, gentlemen, here," Kemino said and smiled at them.

"So, you want us to enlist him in the military? " The petite middle-aged man said.

"Yep, can you help him? He will be a great help to you." Kemino asked seriously.

"No, that is not possible," replied Captain Carlos.

"That is too bad then," Kemino said.

"Alright, I will recommend him to the military. Can we meet him now? " The petite man replied.

"No, I have some more conditions," Kemino said firmly.

"I am listening." The petite man replied calmly.

"First, I need Bobby to work directly under Captain Jean. His safety should be on the top priority list. Nothing must happen to him. Second, I will still be his acting mentor after he enlisted in the army." Kemino said. He had a Japanese-American origin, tall physique, and yellow skin Asian look.

"Okay. I agree." The petite man kept his teacup on the tray and replied calmly.

"Hahaha, then it's all good. I will call him now." Kemino laughed and pushed a button on his hand.

A few minutes later, a seventeen-year-old boy quickly rushed in and stood before the director's office door. And he clicked on the doorbells button.

"Master. Bobby Bradford is here. He is requesting your permission to enter the room." The AI spoke in a female voice.

"Permission granted!" Kemino replied.

Beep! Beep! (Electrical beeping sound for unlocking the door.)

"Come in," Kemino spoke from inside the room.

Bobby walked inside and stood before Kemino. He asked politely, "Mr. Director, do you call me?"

"Come and sit here," Kemino said and waved his hand, signaling him to sit on the round sofa.

After Bobby sat on the sofa, the other two men inside the room started observing him.

"Bobby, let me introduce them first. He is one of the founders of Johnson military corp, Mr. Gregaon." Kemino spoke and introduced the petite, middle-aged man.

Bobby looked at him with a smile.

" He is the famous Mr. Gregaon. So, everyone's rumors on social media are true after all. He is, after all, the mixed breed of human and Ogarian races." thought Bobby on seeing his blue teeth and silver nails.

Both human and Ogarian races were very similar. The only difference was that humans had only white teeth and white nails, while the Ogarians had different colors of teeth and nails.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Gregaon." Bobby greeted him.

The petite man smiled and nodded at him.

"And this man, you must have already heard of him, Captain Jean Carlos." Kemino pointed at him.

"Sir, it's my honor to meet you today. I am a big fan of yours." Bobby spoke to Captain Jean with a smile.

Captain Jean Carlos greeted him back with a warm smile.

"Alright, Bobby, it's time to discuss important matters now." said Kemino, and he continued, " Son, you can finally join the space military. They are here to take you in. Finally, your dream about entering it will come true."

"Director Kemino, how is that possible? I am just a Defect. According to our Federal Constitution, all Defects are forbidden to join any civil services, especially the military. " Bobby asked with some confusion as he knew it was absolutely impossible for a Defect like himself to join the military.
