"Professor?"
"Yes, I"ll teach Biology, How the wildlife behaves, which plants have healing properties and how to use them, etc.. To be a hunter you have to completely understand the ecosystem there. And someone with personal experience is better for teaching."
Maria's face remained the same, Raquel's went back to her cold look. Bella was excited because of P1's commercial
"I'll work on the Hunter institute, I'll come back in the weekends for visiting."
"I heard on the radio that there's a theme park there! Can we go?"
Jefferson smiled, this girl is really simple.'
"We can go later."
"I'll call my friend!" Bella went to her room.
"A professor, on P1?" Maria asked with the same gentle smile.
"It's a simple job, very safe, I could choose to be something else. But thinking how mom taught the orphanage back then, I decided to be a professor."
Raquel looked at him coldly. 'In the end, he just wants to distance yourself from us again.' She thought, and the excitement from before vanished, she didn't care anymore.
A Hand rested on her thigh. She turned her eyes to see Maria smiling back at her reassuringly. 'I'm not a child though.' She thought but still held her mother's hand.
"What a coincidence. We'll move there too. can you hook us up with a good place?" Maria said.
He just looked at her for a few seconds, not expecting this.
"Bella has school, and you just woke up from a long coma, Raquel is colonel and leader of an elite troop, the city relies on her, you can't just move."
"We're going," Maria said again, she was smiling but it didn't reach her eyes. Her words didn't allow rebuke.
But Jefferson frowned, his face went stern and he looked in her eyes. the room went cold. "You can't, there's no reason to. I won't allow it." His voice was curt and stern.
Maria tilted her head.
"Did you just tried to command me? am I a soldier? A Maid? Your wife!?"
Jefferson flinched. His demeanor was gone. He looked at Raquel. She had the most to lose here. To his dismay, she was writing her resignation letter on the cellphone already.
Maria smiled and pulled the cold beauty's head to her bosom "Thank you~"
Then she whispered, "Sarah's going there too." Raquel squinted.
Maria turned to the stairway "And you sweety? If you want to stay and commute to school there's no problem whatsoever"
Bella jumped "No! I want to move too!"
Maria looked at him with a grin. Deep in her mind, she was already calculating. Sarah told her everything until now, even the fact that he was given a list of jobs form the supreme commander himself. She didn't like that, not one bit. It was a trap, they wanted to use her boy. Maria looked to the sky out of the window. Her eyes squinted remembering her Late Husband's and words. 'If you weren't so bent on helping and teaching you'd be an excellent politician.'
She smiled 'I have to do it now Paulo, I'll find the guilty for your death, And..." She looked on at Jefferson Being suffocated with hundreds of questions per minute by Bella. "Protect this Airheaded boy."
Jefferson looked at each one of them. His shoulders felt pleasantly heavier. He didn't think he'd feel like this.
He smiled and sent a message for Reis [I want another home for my family two floors and four bedrooms with security.]
He took out the red crystal and fiddled with it. Suddenly the energy Léo left behind act. He felt, that in the corner of the crystal was a removable piece. He smirked. 'So this was it...You left me some gifts too'
He looked at the blonde trio. "Give me your crystals for a second."
His serious voice cut the mood. But his eyes were too stern to joke around. He could lie, but more lies won't be good, but he can't tell the truth either.
"What I'll do now, you cannot tell anyone." He said and looked especially at Bella, She nodded obediently
He took all of their red crystals and plucked out the part Léo's essence signaled.
There were obvious questions on their faces.
"I can't, and won't, tell you the why or how. Can I count on you to not tell anybody? "
Maria looked at him, she blinked a few times and laughed."What a brute. Fine. I won't ask questions."
Jefferson smiled and threw them a bank card "I need to go out, I'll be back tomorrow. go about arranging your stuff. if you don't want anything here, you can just buy it anew there are about 20 thousand reais(5,500USD) there."
Walking outside, Jefferson reached for his phone to call an uber. Then he saw the Moto with the police written on the side. He caressed the small cut on his cheek and grinned.

As he went out Bella went to her room to look for P1's images.
Alone on the couch, Maria smiled at Raquel. "My girl got some action huh~?" She dragged the 'h' with a grin.
Closing her eyes Raquel got up, completely ignoring Maria's nonsense "I'll grab a beer."
"Vrrrroomm" the Engine sound echoed
Raquel's eyes snapped open. She bolted outside.
Jefferson, mounted on a bulky Police moto, saw Raquel from the mirror and twisted the handle strongly. Speeding away with a smirk.
Gnashing her teeth Raquel took out her pistol and fired away.
"MOTHERFUCKERRR!!!!" *pow* *pow* *pow*
"Breathe fire on him girl!" Maria laughed and screamed from the window

Late in the night, Jefferson entered a bar. Walked directly to the counter and ordered a bottle of beer.
-There's a ton of incidents happenings. people are awakening abilities so suddenly you saw what happed on xx? a whole house was burnt down.
-Yes, I'm thinking of moving to P1 city, they have security for those kinds of things.
-Ha, Better do it soon, there are too many people running for the opportunity to secure a place there.
Jefferson heard their talks and gulped down his beer. It felt unusually bitter. After lighting a smoke, he prickled his finger, and let the blood fell on the red crystal.
It shone red, then numbers and words flowed as an image to his mind.
