Maria is currently undergoing her vacation. By vacation, it means that she I currently hunting down the bastard that did that to her son. It seems that the bastard stayed low after the incident with Adrian happened.


    She is currently searching for him using the few connections she has with the underworld. The world might have be advance but that did not mean it became cleaner. You could even say that they be more organized and more secretive sincew enforcement has be tight.


    Fortunately for Maria, the person she is searching for is not afraid of thew enforcement because he acts as a legitimate businessman for the underworld. He has many businesses that are considered as his subsidiary, so she knows where to find him.


    Adrian''s mother, Maria, did note from a normal family. She voluntarily cut ties with her family because she cannot marry Adrian''s father. Their family has a tradition to not mix their blood with that of foreigners so they could remain as purebloods.


    The reason for this is Adrian''s mother lineage. Their family has records that theye from a long line of royalty. She was a descendant of the famed warrior princess named Urduja. This is reflected from her official name which is Maria Urduja.


    Since her family is from the line of the famed warrior princess, it became a requirement for all children to be taught the martial art called Kali. Maria also taught this to Adrian for him to learn to protect himself but not to use in fights. If she did not marry Adrian''s father, then she might have been the new n had.


    She did not regret her decision though as she is now very happy with her life. She felt that her previous life was suffocating because all the decisions were made for her. The only regret that she has would be the inability to talk to anyone from the n anymore.


    She left the n with one of her older cousins which was Mina''s mother. Mina''s mother became bored of the life that she lived and wanted to find love by herself and she did. Mina as born earlier than Adrian, but her mother died of childbirth. Mina'' father died of a disease two yearster which is why Maria and Richard took Mina as her own child.


    Maria is a pacifist but there is one thing that people should not touch and that is her family. She was not taught the Kali that is taught as a sport but the deadly arts one. She had a duffle bag filled with all sorts of weapons because she knows that the man that she is looking for would be heavily guarded.


    "From the information that the broker said, he should be currently living in a vi in this rich neighborhood. Criminals have reallye a long way." Maria stated as she proceeded to a distant vi.


    She checked the perimeter as she is not a person that charges in blindly despite her rage. She then noticed that she is not the only one checking out the vicinity. She noticed three identical vans parked near the vi''s vicinity.


    Soon, a man dressed in casual clothes while walking his dog strolled near Maria. She thought that it was a resident, but the man gave her a small note. The note that she is given told her toe to the van a few meters away from the vi that she is targeting.


    She thought that the one who gave her the note would be an ally since the man could have pointed a gun at her if he was an enemy. From the perimeter check that she had done, she concluded that a frontal assault would be suicide.


    The guards that are stationed at the entrances are armed but the guns are hidden behind their back so that passing residents will not report them. She decided to go to the van pointed by the note. She believed that ''the enemy of her enemy is her friend''.


    The van that the note pointed at is a ck fifteen-seater vehicle. But when the door opened, only two people were present inside the van. One of which is the servant of her husband''s father.


    "Good afternoon, Madame." Bernard greeted Maria as he gestured her to enter the van.


    The van is filled with state-of-the-art spying equipment with all monitors showing the whole area of the vi. There is also an aerial view of the vi that can show the current location of the guards inside the vi. The guards inside the vi no longer hide their weapons as they cannot be seen by a random passerby.


    "Why are you here, Madame? I am sure that you are enraged but you cannot just barge inside the vi. The man that we are dealing with has been reported to have killed about fifty people." Bernard stated in order to calm down Maria.


    "You do not need to worry about me, Bernard. Just worry about yourself. It seems that father''s statement of him sending someone to teach this Edison Torrio a lesson is real. I thought he was mostly bluffing." Maria stated as she opened her duffle bag.


    "We are doing our best, Madame. You should return home and wait for our news." Bernard stated with urgency as he saw the weapons inside the duffle bag. He even started to sweat because he knows why the Madame is here.


    "What is the current information that you have? Give the time where they change shifts or any blind spot that I can sneak inside." Maria stated as she changed her clothes to that of ck and wore a mask.


    She pulled up two swords with a wavy de and put three daggers on her left leg. She also put a nunchaku on her waist as an extra weapon. She is now ready for war and Bernard could not stop her. Bernard could only report what is happening to his master.
