"Woah...amazing!" A young boy said in amazement as he was looking over the cliffs he was standing atop of. Seeing down at the clear blue cannals and channels of water flowing out to the sea. The sent and wind of salt water hitting his face as it felt refreshing at the touch of his face.

"Don't get too close kid. After all you don't wanna worry your dad too much, or your mom finding out about this." The boy then turned back to see a man looking to be around his late twenties. Sporting a cool pair of sunglasses that seemed well with his long hair. 

Complementing the attire he wore. Being a yellow t-shirt underneath a black jacket with silver metal trimmings attatched. And black trousers with a gun holster by his right hip and black combat boots tucked in with his trousers. 

The boy smiled as he ran up to the man and hugged his leg, as he was somewhat shorter compared to this man's height of 182 cm (Roughly 5'10-6') while he was only 140 cm tall (4'5-4'6"). He laughed as he scratched the back of his head and smiled sheepishly. 

"Yeah I know Uncle Kairi. Is dad back with his work again at those castles outside of town." The boy asked as the man known as Kairi smirked and ruffled the boy's hair and grinned. Statchign him from behind the shirt and pulling him away from the cliffs and back to the plain grassy fields they stood earlier.

"Yeah you know our job Izuku. To discover and study a lot of past historical artifacts and record them again. But just because you traveling around and missing school with your dad, doesn't mean you can slack off on our self defense training." Kairi said as he got into a stance and held up a wooden practice sword.

"Come on Uncle Kairi! Can't I go look at Marseille more? Gah!" "Gotta make sure you're still sharp!" Izuku said as he then defended the sword with a palm thrust and grabbed his practice dagger from his back and continued with the lesson his uncle gave him.

It had been six years of this occurring on in Izuku's life. And he never wished nor regret it. After that day when his dad came home. Reading him the story that was on even par with his favorite one of all. And seeing such a historic artifact that belonged to the hero Arash. The moment they asked him if he desired to travel occasionally with his dad. His response was immediate.

Since then. He has traveled the world roughly now thirteen times with his dad. From the neighboring countires like China and smaller areas like Beijing and Korea. To Russia's cold land of harsh winters. To America and their vast land and open skys in Texas. And other places of the world.

But....when he heard of this place as their next destination. Estatic could not even be a word to describe the joy and immense feeling Izuku had. And throughout the years, he loved seeing and working with his father around the countries and cities they were working in. And more so he found a new family relationship to his father's friend, Kairi Sisigou.

He was a freelancer mercenary and archeologist that his dad persisted his boss in hiring every once in a while. And he was part of helping him learn about self defense for his sake, due to having traveled to dangerous parts of the world. And helped in learning languages.

"And break!" Kairi said as both stopped and tossed their practice weapons aside as the sat down and drank their waters they brought. 'Jeez...Uncle Kairi is really pushing it a lot. But, they were useful tips when we landed in California. I kinda feel bad about tossing over those guys asking for directions...' Izuku thought.

"<Hey Izuku...things troubling you at school lately?>" Kairi said as he spoke in this country's tongue. Another test for Izuku to see if he had been learning. Izuku froze at that as he bit the inside of his cheek and swallowed a small sip of water.

"<Thing's have been alright? Why?>" Izuku spoke French fluently as Kairi smirked at his speech.

"<Good, glad to see you can talk fluent French now. What is this? The fifth language you're now fluent in?>" Kairi said as Izuku was glad the topic went a bit off course from school.
