The next day, Takeshi is fully recovered from all his wounds.
When he leaves the medical room, there's two men in black suits.
One of them says, "Mr.Takeshi, please come with us."
Takeshi confused and says, "What, why?"
Then the other man replies, "We'll explain later, but what matters now is that you have to follow us."
Takeshi replies, "Oh, alright."
Then he bows and replies, "Thank you for your understanding, sir."
After that, Takeshi follows them.
When they're walking, he looks to the glass window.
As he looks to the window, he surprised. Because it turns out there's a lot of reporters outside.
Everyone is waiting for Takeshi for the news.
It is all because of the trending topic this week is
"THE MAN WHO COULD ABSORBS THE HOLY FIRE"
Meanwhile, Takeshi doesn't know about it, that's why he's been taken away from the medias.
The two men take him to Minato.
Takeshi asks, "Minato-san, what happen? Why should I follow them?"
Minato replies, "I knew it, you don't know what happened."
Takeshi says, "Hah?"
Minato then answers his question.
"It seems like the information regarding the incident had been leaked to the public."
"What?!" Takeshi surprised.
Minato then says, "And now, your name become the most trending topic on Japan."
Then his female assistant says, "There's a possibility that this news could spread to the entire world."
Takeshi replies, "WHAT?!"
Minato says, "Don't worry, Mr.Takeshi. We will try our best to make sure this news doesn't spread globally. So for now, I suggest you to stay at your apartment and don't go outside until the trends are over."
Takeshi nods.
Minato says, "Alright, my two agents will be taking you back to your apartment."
After that, the two agents take them to a black car at the parking lot.
They immediately leave the building and prevent the crowds.
As they're on the way towards his apartment, he sees the news about him on the huge screen of a building.
Takeshi then says, "Oh my god, how it become like this?"
When they finally arrived to the apartment, Takeshi says, "Arigatou Gozaimasu." to the agent.
Then the agent says, "Doumoitashimashite, Mr.Takeshi. Be careful and may the Gods bless you."
And then, they left.
Takeshi immediately returns to his apartment room.
He takes off his shoes and lies on the sofa.
Takeshi sighs and says, "Ha! Finally I'm home!"
Then he opens his phone and have a look on social media.
The social media is filled with a lot of trending news of him.
When he sees that, he says, "Even in the social media, I also become a huge topic."
Suddenly, someone knocks the door.
Takeshi surprised.
He goes to the door and says, "Who's there?"
A young woman replies, "It's me."
Takeshi says, "Oh, Aimi-san."
Then he opens the door.
Aimi says, "Hey there, how's your health?"
Takeshi replies, "Oh, as you see. I'm totally healthy and fine."
Aimi says, "Yokata."
Takeshi replies, "Why are you doing here?"
Aimi says, "Oh, I just want to give you some food and drinks."
"Food and drinks?" Takeshi asked.
Aimi blushes and replies, "Yeah, I thought you're still probably unwell. So I buy you food and drinks, but it turns out, you're already fine."
Takeshi says, "Oh, arigatou Aimi-san. I appreciate it."
Aimi replies, "Doumo."
Takeshi then says, "Do you know about….."
Aimi replies, "Yeah, I heard the news. I'm truly surprised when I see you on TV and now, your name becomes a huge hit on the social media."
Takeshi answers in a sad tone, "Yeah."
Aimi then smiles and pats his shoulder and replies, "Hey, why you're sad? I mean, now you're officially a phantom hunter. That's cool you know."
Takeshi smiles and replies, "Yeah, I guess so. But I don't expect to be like this."
Aimi says, "Well, life is full of surprises. Alright, I'll be going now. Take care of yourself, okay."
Takeshi replies, "Oh yeah, take care yourself as well, Aimi-san."
Then Aimi smiles and says, "Soreja."
After that, Aimi left.
But then, Takeshi says, "Aimi!"
Aimi turns back and replies, "Yes?"
Takeshi replies, "Do I make the right decision?"
Aimi says, "Well, I don't know. Because that question is only answered by you alone. But according to me, you just begin a new chapter on your life and it's not wrong to start something new."
Takeshi replies, "Is that so."
Aimi then says, "I believe that you will be great phantom hunter and you will saved a lot of people like when the time you try to protect me. So stay strong and rise up and be victorious."
Takeshi replies, "Yes."
"Gambarou ze, Takeshi-kun." Aimi said before she leave the apartment.
Then Takeshi returns to his room.
After that, he immediately put all the foods and drinks that Aimi gave to the fridge.
Then he starts to make a cereal for breakfast.
As he eats his cereal, he says inside his mind, "Yeah, Aimi's right. It's not wrong to start something new. Yosh, alright. I had made my decision. I will struggle to become a great phantom hunter, so I could be strong. With that, I could finally have the strength to protect a lot of lives."
After that, he starts exercising from jogging every morning in a place where no one sees him, have push ups, pull ups and sit ups inside his apartment 100 times everyday.
And he also learns and practices himself a little bit of fighting with his hands and legs for combat.
He keeps doing all of that as his daily routine.
And as time passes, the trend of his name is starting to fade little by little.
But everyone is still curious about who is Aido Takeshi.
So even if the trend starts to fade, but his name is still well-known among the phantom hunter community.
And a lot of content creators are trying to figure out more about Takeshi.
Yet until now, no one still can't find detail information about him, because the Phantom Hunter Association protects his entire private data to protect his privacy.
Besides his name, the identity of the man who could absorb the holy fire still remains a mystery 'til today.
And recently, the netizens give him a nickname, which is the
"THE FLAME BEARER"
Since then, that nickname becomes Takeshi's identity.
Two weeks later, Takeshi runs out of food and drink supplies.
So he has no choice, but to get out of his apartment and buy all his needs again in the supermarket.
He wears a red hat, grey jacket and a black mask to cover his identity from the public.
Gratefully, no one notices his identity and he could buy all kind of supplies that he needs without any issue.
But when he's on the way back, suddenly he sees there's a young woman running towards him.
She screams, "Help! Please sir, help me!"
Takeshi says, "Woah, calm down. What happened? Why are you running?"
The woman replies, "I'm been chased by a lot of strange people."
Takeshi replies, "Strange people?"
Suddenly multiple portals appeared surround them.
Takeshi says, "WHAT THE?!"
Then a bunch of assassins come out from those portals.
As they come out, everyone panics and escape.
The assassins wear a dark green cloak and wears a British drama opera mask (Some wear black and some wear white and each of the mask has different emotions).
The woman replies, "I've been chased by these people."
Then Takeshi says, "Alright, I'll help you, miss."
After that, he prepares his fist.
In his mind, he says, "This is the chance to show myself what I made of. I WON'T BACK DOWN AND I WON'T LOSE!!!!!"
