Chapter 33 - Vermillion Bird's Night 5, Cha 32

"7 archbishop, 10 supporters and 3 normal people. 20 guys here. Oh I have already slammed 3 of them. 1 bodyguard a normal person, that second floor guy and this cage guy." Shino smiled, "tell me, where are kids unless you want to watch me struggling to find them myself in your afterlife." He said and ran forward, punching one down before he could react then a elbow to another archbishop and gave a uptodown kick slam to the face of last normal guy.

That archbishop from before came down from second floor, he isn't dead. "Your punches have not enough power to kill us." He said to shino as he spit out some blood. Shino gave him a backlook, glaring, "Because I don't want to kill. Don't make me like it again." He said firmly before running towards him but suddenly he is strapped in big chains from behind over his waist and his wrists as well. "Same repelling sorcery? But doesn't sorcery also cantains variant techniques? Oh I see. So different churches mastered different single technique." They all are struggling to hold Shino in place, "But I guess, each of you know just one simple technique that doesn't really work in modern era. So you guys stick together to do complex works right? But I don't have any technique, no wish, no energy, nothing." Then he grabbed the chains himself and pulled it sharply, making one sided people fly in air and fell on other. "Surprisingly this hall is really big."

Then his sight fell on one painting on the wall. I am confused, that painting is simply showing the human illustration of archangels which are also known as guardians. But. Why is it that I can see.... Lucifer as one of them, that is Lucifer, right? Wait how do I‐. As he was distracted a large pillar came from behind. But he didn't looked back as the stained mirror in front of him showed it, he stopped the pillar with one hand and crushed it. Then he turned, "now tell me or‐" a metal bat was about to hit him but he managed to dodge it but his pendent got hit which he was wearing in neck. ".... you." He just held the pendent, there's blood contained in it. And so he stood up as everyone took a step back. Then he looked up, tilted head with tongue out, he licked the blood from pendent. "Now now now, You know what? I can hear you now." He had a death stare in his eyes. "Wh-what do you mean you can hear now?!!"

"NOPE! He IS deaf." , "really? But he seems comfortable anyway!" , "I saw that, he is deaf but I still like him!" , "what are you even talking about?!" Two children around Cia's age were talking, this is an orphanage. And the sight is kinda faded. Their faces aren't shown. Then a feeble boy came, same age. "Who are you tow girls talking about?" He said in a sweet voice." One of them said, "oh nothing!" , "yeah nothing serious Tsuki" She said while gesturing with hands then other girl said in her ears "he can understand basic conversation, how?" , "Practice? He was not always been deaf, teacher told me that." Then another boy came, "guys?" He said, then Tsuki looked at him, "Shino? I thought you were on roof." These 2 boys are both seems to be week, and a bit nervous for no reason. Then someone came, a man in suit, he always come. Shino bitted his lips while looking away, and Tsuki was held one corner of Shino's shirt. Even those girls seemed more energetic. Then the man looked at the boys and said, "All childish. Now GO!!" He gave them a scolding, and both of them got scared and ran away. Those girls then also left silently. Then that man looked up, a fighter plane was going somewhere then even more of them. "So government gave their orders?"

Back to present, in the car Madreka was about fell asleep when she suddenly heard a burst sound and looked outside. Shino was coming out but he didn't jumped the main gate like before. He kicked it out, the gate fell down, now she can see that he is coming with the children, most of them under 15. Around 25 of them. Madreka eyes widen as she counted them. Then she came out of the car.

"Are these all?" , "Yes." , "what about men?" , "someone will adapt them. They will not say a thing. Next location." Shino told Madreka without looking at her. She is a little terrified now. He can hear right now? Seriously? Is this a joke? Then she called Arnes, "ok, get that plane over here."

And just after few seconds, a jet arrives and landed just a little away from surrounding buildings. Then all the children were transfered in it. "Shino. Are you ok?" She asked putting her hand one his shoulder. "I'll be ok if you promise to give me kisses after all of this." , "so you are ok huh? Let's get to the second place." He nodded, still not looking. Plane again flew away. And madreka and Shino both sat back in car, ready to go.

[Boooom, CAR'S TIME!!!

The car Shino is using for this mission. I said earlier that this is a customised Arnes's build on Shino's request with tons of feature. But today I'll tell some history, so the idea Arnes used to build this car or say the inspiration came from the history books. In the southern part of hemisphere, the time just before the Modern era War, people used to travel through hybrid cars that were attached with the ropes. These are for security purpose, a country was suspected to put some bombs in other country's cities' critical areas but the government instead of putting a investigation and having a lockdown in areas, they just gave some cheap roped cars. These cars aren't exactly like a cart and the ropes only save them if the bomb in within the 5 meter range by keeping the car hanged up in air. The worst part was that people didn't know all of this and thought this is the new technology they are testing in public service. But as aspected, things didn't go any well and after few confrontation, civil war started and then slowly with some international lies a war arised in whole southern hemisphere which then due to global connection and because of supporting neighbor countries, northern part also jumped in the war, making this a 2nd world war. But that's of course not all.

The roped cars of course got into graves and never came back as any revolutionary idea until Shino saw it. He thought it's kinda funny and insisted Arnes to find way to use this. On the other hand, by coincidence, Arnes new form car also needed some type of rope technology to bypass certain things from inside, so that's how this masterpiece came up.

The car works on a mechanism they named, "rope-escalation-and-repulsion-thingy". Madreka named it actually. It works quite simply, the rope system instead of using cable towers like those times, is inside the car here along with a powerful metal strap spring system and special stretching knots to pull it to work. It doesn't need external force like a fuel but can be rechaged or say can be reset as car moves. But it's also very dangerous to harm other parts of the car but again this is Shino who got trees of money in his backyard.

That's all.]
