Chapter 38 - Vermillion Bird's Night 9, Cha 37

Shino ran at a speed normal eyes can't keep up with. It was a horrizontal run before he turned towards his opponents. Two of them quickly loaded their firearm while the people in air floating were ready to explode the whole area togther.

"Push him to a corner! We will burn him down with devine flames!" One of the 5 people who were floating shouted to the groundmen. Then his eyes frowned on the sight.

Shino has lost it. For some reason he now keep remembering not only his daily normal life but deep buried past memories as well.

He pushed his pal throw one of the person's head, with a hook from downward, he threw him into the air.

Dududududu!!!

Firring finally started along with fireballs coming for Shino. Even the bullets are enhanced with something like mist.

"...." he didn't said anything and just kept dodging somehow. He looked up to the floating figures covered in spells. Theose magic circles covered the sky and Shino quickly recognized what they are actually doing.

"Sorcery, Qi-cultivation and manipulation, kinesis, purity and even using divine.... there are so many kinds of techniques and hybrids...." he kept saying the monologues while beating the shit out of everyone. It wasn't any martial art, rather he is being natural. The flow of body physiology and the sharp movements of different species.

He gave a punch on someone's abdomen then a kick to another's face. They kept coming at him with all kinds of techniques and Shino had to fight atleast 2 or 3 people consecutively. "Normally, all the techniques in existence can be devided in two types. One that are building blocks. They are like most pure thing. It involves simple manipulation of matter to the precise cutting of atomic structures. It's like manipulating the strings directly, doesn't matter if it's physical or mental.... then comes our second column. It contains what everyone use normally, any kind of technique, any species, any generation. Every kind falls into it. Scientifically, these are non sense and the reason is simple, they are not in plain sight of radiation. How can you see the vibrations that doesn't exist on same planes as us?" Then one of the person shouted, "stop lecturing us!!"

And then Shino kicked his face, a reckless roundhouse kick. And the head twisted 270 degress to the right. Blood spurted out a little too much. Shino stood there as everyone were still coming. Trying their best to somehow break his defense and push him to a corner. Then suddenly a injection poked in his arm backside. Then another one. They were sent from afar. It's Madreka who held the injection gun in her hands, trembling.

Then her lips moved with no sound coming out. "I'm sorry, but I don't want citizen nearby die for no reason." She said in pattern even gesturing with her hands. And it looks like Shino somewhat got it. Then a man came to Madreka as well, to be precise there were 4 of them. But then suddenly before they could do anything a flying wall came towards them at quite a speed and crushed 2 of them, other 2 were just stunned and froze.

"Khwaa.... haaahh...." little boy breathed heavily as his nose bled. His hand was hanging in air as he used the substitute power of his main mental ability. Madreka quickly wiped his nose and layed him down again. "Don't worry about them. Just rest, your head is already bleeding." She tightened the band gently on his hand after all the cleaning then faced to the 2 others who maybe are planning on how to take them down.

"Ok now you idiots. Come here." She walked to them and gesturing them to come closer but they themselves can sense that she isn't a easy target either and quickly activated their techniques.

"I see now. You guys don't have good enough physique to stand against Shino." She looked outside it was brighter outside then this dark convenience store. "Not a single one have that physique huh? But looks like you guys do have better alignment for using these techniques."

Then one of them shooted his power on another one and he ran towards her with a energy infused punches. She then grabbed a nearby hook and pushed her boy upward for a kick, man got ready for that kick but as it landed with a swing with sliced his whole arm. "Hah! My shoes are special, couldn't you see? Oh right, there isn't much light here." Then she kept kicking in rounds and circles and he tried to parry those shoes blade. The blades are actually on the soles oh her shoes, it's like skates but in unique shape to help her walk as well. She pushed him back and other person quickly started healing him. But then Madreka just threw her one shoe to that healing guy's neck.

"Kwnaa..haa...."

His Adam's apple got sliced and a deep wound appeared. His hands trembled with the lack of oxygen while other glared back, "Die Bit-" she quickly came forward and stomped her kick onto his face disruption his facial bones. "No foul wording." She then came held back. And that man quickly activated his technique.

He really underestimated her by coming here with such weak technique. Maybe people who got crushed had better techniques that's why boy prioritized those two after sensing each of their powers through mental review technique. It's another substitute that any mental power wielder would have.

She then exchanged few blows, he had strengthened his skin with infused energy and hence it isn't cutting anymore. But there is a problem. He finally noticed that his skin might be intact but his underneath bones are getting fractures somehow. "Huh?!"

"What? If take a axe to cut a wood covered with uncuttable clothe, wood will still be cutted as clothe moves with that axe. Idiot." She smiled before landing a upped kick around his shoulder then draging it down to his throat. He fell down miserably. "Shino would have killed you quickly you know? Because you guys are ganging up on him. Oh"

She quickly went back to the boy not even looking back if he is really dead. "How are you feeling now kid?" , "I'm a little sleepy. And head is hurting a bit."

She took him in her arms and ran back to car to grab essential that might be of any use. She quickly opened the door. "Eh? Where's the driver side door?" She looked down and it is on the ground with bullet marks. Then she opened a Cabinet in lower parts on the car desk. That boy is sleeping the seat.

"Not this, this isn't either, no no, where's the com-X2?" Then she saw something shiny on the ground of the car. As she held it in her hand, she recognized it in a second. "Heh. This idiot brought this one?" On the handheld device it's written, 'com-Z2'.

After sometime Madreka and the boy were in a nearby building at 7th floor. The boy is sleeping on a couch and Madreka is looking down on the ground then upwards where few people seems ready to bombard the whole area but they couldn't find the right time.

The room they are in right now seems like a vip guest room. But the lightning of the whole building is out. Maybe a abandoned hotel. She looked down as she held that device close to her chest. Shino is single handly slamming people and their are few of them now, around 10. They lasted this long amazed Madreka. But she is the one who putted this much limits on Shino. Those 2 injections she launched were last they have. 1 is enough to make a person paralyzed for a day and here Shino after taking two of them is moving around as if he work on diesel.

Then those 5 people got frustrated and one of them spoke, "this isn't working, these dogs will die anyway let's just bombard all at once. Our objective is to kill that man.", "yes, it's unfortunate to kill our own men but it's headquarter's mistake to not send enough people." Another one replied to him.

"But how many do we have? 150? 45 here will die, that's a huge loss." But they have decided and then the circle above them became larger with many smaller ones covering the edge oh it.

A larged golden-red light emitted through it. Shino looked upward and grinned then jumped and stomped one's face, twisting his whole head and throwing him onto another with too much force handling what is on ground. Then he ran to these 5 flying people but suddenly a earth wall stopped him and spiked roped held him at one place. He tore them apart and punched the wall destroying it completely, it was 1 meter wide but it doesn't matter. The incantationers got pushed back and other's chain magic got failed. And as their magic technique got progressed and was about to start, Shino couldn't move from his place. And has to dodge too many enhanced bullets.

"This isn't going anywhere."
