Chapter 92: The Past One Year [2]

"Nagami Yuki, age 13, her techniques are exceptional, her results are really elevating to a point you wonder if she’s human, her immense tactics are good but she lacks judgment as well as balance, she really doesn’t exactly play well with others... almost like a soldier in need of a direction" Anzai states.

’A strange factor’ Anzai thought with dark looks. ’But when she’s with Hiro, she seems to be in place’

Daiki ran as fast as he could while breathing heavily, he stops abruptly when he got to a robot, it then roared loudly before bouncing on him, he pulled up his arms in defense while trembling as his body went up in a phase, the robots passed right through him, smashing to the ground instead, Daiki took a deep breath of relief knowing he wasn’t a gutter yet.

"Masaaki Daiki, age 13, possesses an ability to phase through objects as well as others, but he comes naturally on instinct, others... well they are still getting a hang of it," Anzai explained.

"Also we have Acker Sand, age 15, he shows excellent results as well, but he has a unique speed that others can’t march up with, observe" he motioned.

Kiyoshi did, instantly about five robots fell to the ground without them knowing what hit them. Sand now suddenly at a corner smiling curly at his accomplishment.

"I must hand it to you General Anzai, you really have groomed these kids in the past year, I’m impressed with what I’m seeing," Kiyoshi said with beaming amusement, impressed and satisfied with the results, they were worthy to be called soldiers now.

"They really were a handful," Anzai said, chuckling nervously as he scratched the back of his head, remembering the past year of nonstop training, hard work really does pay off.

"Well, Dr. Touka did help me oversee some things, we came to discover more about their abilities together, she’s pretty good at her work" he adds in acknowledgment.

Touka standing beside Tori blushed slightly at his words while pulling the strings of her light purple hair behind her ear.

"I GOT IT!" Yumi shouts triumphantly raising the device they were set to obtain as it glowed, the robots powered down, instantly.

"Good job Yumi," Mirai cheered.

"Ugh, finally it’s over," Sumi said in a bored tone as she folded her arms.

"Good job everyone," Shino said with a smile on his lips.

"And there we have it, the smallest of them all, Takai Yumi, age 12, with her height and petite figure she would do any kind of sneak attack, we didn’t even see her get the prize," Anzai said still wondering when.

The footage went off as Kiyoshi turned to Anzai.

"You truly have built them up into soldiers, I believe we will be planning another mission to the outside world soon" he states.

"Not so soon Prime Minister Kiyoshi, they still have one thing they haven’t practiced," Anzai said in a serious tone.

Kiyoshi blinks puzzled, he thought they were ready... but seems like there was more.

"After several studies of what we gained from the outside world, we now know during their previous attack that the weapons we designed are of no use, Thanks to Ten theory, it appears their blood is the only way they can fight them" Touka explained.

"And what have you guys thought of about this?" he asked.

"A designed weapon with their blood," Anzai said.

"Hmm I see, then I think it’s about time we informed our chief designer in gadgets" Kiyoshi states. It seems like a good idea, their own specially designed weapon made from their blood.

"Shouldn’t we just ask the apprentices to do the design, Kiyoshi-sama?" Tori said sweating profusely, with a deep shiver, as a familiar feeling overwhelmed him.

Anzai raised an eyebrow wondering why something got him stirred up.

Kiyoshi shook his head in a hard no. "We need a master if we want this to work, she’s the one who designed all our gadgets, she will be excellent for this job" he said for certain, she was the only one capable.

Tori just chuckled awkwardly but in his head, he was panicking.

"General Anzai, what about Hiro? How’s he coming up? I haven’t visited him at the medical center in the past few months" Kiyoshi asked, slightly worried.

"Oh he’s good, I was able to train him a bit, he should be ready for the final exams with the rest of the bio-genetics," Anzai said.

Kiyoshi sighs deeply.

"Poor Hiro, he will be way behind the others... I guess he will just have to keep up" he states.

"Yes, I believe so," Anzai said, smirking.

Level 35: Unknown Facility

After Lights Out

Slamming of punches against a bag could be heard throughout the hall, along with steady breath, more punches along with kicks as it echoed in the hall loudly.

His fist wrapped with black bandages came fast at the bag, each punches sent the bag dangling fiercely, it came hard and strong, then his leg and knees correspondingly, measuring up in a perfect flow, steady and fast, and then with one wave of his leg the bag was sent flying against the wall crashing into it as the metal deepens. 20 more were next to it.

Hiro took heavy breaths, his spiky red hair drenched with sweat along with the sleeveless ash shirt he wore, and his arm had portable muscles that fit his frame perfectly. He cracks his neck in a swift motion.

"Another" he states, his voice a bit deep.

He walked towards another bag on the floor, it weighed tons but he lifted it with little effort, but suddenly he paused his actions as his head turned to the direction Yuki was seated, but surprisingly enough, she was fast asleep, her head going back and forth. Well, that was a first, Yuki was always awake throughout his training, it was odd to see her sleep, she must be really tired.

He dropped the bag walking towards her, his shadow covering her.

"I told you to stay behind, but you didn’t listen" he states with a frown, before sighing. "Dummy".

*Silent Footsteps*

In the long lobby, Hiro saunters through it while giving Yuki a piggy back ride. Funny enough she weighs no less than leather, he stops for a minute adjusting her properly. But he shivered head to toe with clenched teeth when he felt her bosom going up and down his back, it sent a strange feeling to his body.

He quickly shakes his head profusely. ’Dammit... this is annoying’ he thought flushed but quickly regained himself.

"Concentrate, Kimura Hiro!" he scolded himself.

Yuki groaned behind him, still fast asleep as she moved a bit getting more comfortable, her arms around his neck tightly but not enough to strangle him.

"Hard... but soft" she murmured under her breath, making him stiff at her words.

She groans once more. "Kimura Hiro" she murmured softly.

Hiro turned his head slightly, through the light white leather material around his eyes, he could sense her ever white aura, it shines brighter than the lights around the lobby.

"I’m your anchor" she trailed off before going fast asleep, she must be really tired, after all for the past one year not missing a single day she was always there with him, watching him train, it was annoying at first but then Hiro had no choice but to get used to it.

Hiro sighs, continuing his walk.

"Who knew you talk while sleeping, how very uncute," Hiro said as a small smile found his lips.

Level 17: Bio-genetics Level

Room Hall

As swift and quiet as he can be, he gently drops Yuki on her bed, her roommate Asano was fast asleep, everyone was fast asleep at this point, at least they had a good night’s sleep, and Hiro hasn’t had any since the past one year, just little close eyes and then the next he was up and ready to train.

Hiro flung the blanket at Yuki, it fell on her from head to toe, not properly but to Hiro, he did a good job, she would have to thank him later.

He walks out of her room heading out, knowing he had some training to do.

"Hiro Senpai" a tiny voice came in.

Hiro halts instantly at the voice. ’Shit!’ he cursed in his head, no one was supposed to see him.

"Hiro Senpai"

Hiro turns to sense it was Yumi, she stood there sleepy while rubbing her eyes.

"Hmm" she made a sound as she removed her hand away from her eyes, she groaned not seeing clearly, Hiro smirks knowing he had the advantage in the dark, he turns walking away.

Yumi blinks once as her eyes adjust to that darkness.

"I thought I saw Hiro Senpai," Yumi said puzzled as she looked around but he was nowhere to be seen, she swore she saw him though, maybe her eyes were playing tricks on her.
