Chapter 1000 Running Around part 3

Stralit brought Kisuke to a station where they could ride a flying shuttle and it didn't take too long for them to exit the barrier that was maintaining the city's climate.

An hour later, Stralit and Kisuke were at an enormous gray cube with countless openings on it that various vehicles went in and out of. They went through one of the openings and a long dimly lit tunnel greeted them before reaching the interior of the cube a few minutes later.

The first thing that caught Kisuke's attention was the portal in the middle of operating, 'It's the same as the one that the Evies use. That settles it, they share the same underlying technology, so it should be easier to acquire them.'

Stralit was silent as she watched Kisuke look around with great interest. Since she already found the pattern in Kisuke's nightly activities, she wanted to see if he'll sneak into this place too.

When they reached the ground, Stralit immediately started showing him around. Thankfully, they didn't have to go through any checkpoints or they'd be moving slowly and they wouldn't be able to see the whole place in just a few hours.

Naturally, the Luxatos working nonstop were wondering why the commander was showing this critical place to the outsider, but thanks to their unbending trust in her, they didn't do anything beyond staring curiously.

After the tour, Kisuke was able to summarize the place into three main points, 'The single large portal in the middle is used for transporting a vast amount of resources and arms. Aside from that, there are three rooms containing a smaller portal each that transports smaller parcels and personnel, though it seems it's not being used that much.'

'Lastly, the rest of the space is being used to manage the whole logistics operation... However...' Kisuke turned to a certain corner and pointed to an unadorned metal double door that no one seemed to be touching, "What's in that room?"

Stralit was waiting for him to ask that but she didn't show any strange reactions on her face, "That's the archive of this place. Just some instruction manuals to train newcomers and other stuff that could be used for the operation."

Kisuke immediately turned his head away from it and started asking questions about the other things.

A slight grin was present on Stralit's face since it was very obvious what he was trying to do. Unfortunately for her, Kisuke indeed made it obvious for someone like her. She thought that she was manipulating Kisuke's movements, but she never would have expected that Kisuke was controlling her thoughts by just giving her false impressions.

Although this could really only work if the one he's controlling didn't know anything about him. This was also one of the reasons why he chose to use a small and weak Gigai. Disposability aside, it's really hard to take his current form seriously.

Night time, Stralit focused on Kisuke's monitors since there wasn't anything critical that was going on, 'Now let's see how you'll sneak into that.'

At the same time, Kisuke opened his eyes and immediately moved to arrange his bed as if he were sleeping in it. Up until this point, Kisuke never revealed to anyone why he would sometimes take a very long time to sleep so they'd been watching his sleeping patterns too.

And as they expected, Kisuke soon came to the edge of the city and made his way toward the supply hub.

"But how is he going to make it?" One of the Luxatos monitoring Kisuke asked, "By his speed, he won't be able to reach his destination."

"That's right. And here I thought he'd hijack one of the transport vehicles." another Luxato commented.

Stralit was also wondering what he was going to do but her eyes went wide a few seconds later when Kisuke suddenly disappeared from their sight, "Where did he go!?"

"P-please hold on! We're contacting our agents to ask them what's going on!"

As Kisuke was traversing through a thick forest, they thought that they'd just lost sight of him, however, they couldn't really be blamed on it since they all knew the forest that he was running through like the back of their hands.

A few seconds later, Kisuke appeared on their monitors again but a lot further than they had initially estimated.

"Tell them to get closer and spread out more. But take care not to be noticed." Stralit commanded.

But not long after, Kisuke's form disappeared once again before they caught him again tens of meters away from his projected position, "Ma'am, our agents were able to confirm that he's using some sort of instant acceleration technique."

"What? Enough that they lose sight of him?"

"According to them, yes. It seems to be a Magic technique but there's something else that's bothering them so they took out their analyzers to get more concrete data."

"Fine... Just be careful not to be noticed."

And every few seconds, Kisuke would disappear and reappear, inching closer and closer to his destination. Nevertheless, it only took a few minutes to get the result of the analysis, "M-Ma'am... The results have returned."

Stralit noticed the strangeness in her subordinate's voice and looked at the data herself. After looking through it a single time, Stralit took a step back and sighed while rubbing the bridge of her nose, "...You're kidding me. A Spirit Technique? To think he's someone who could use something like that."

In an instant, the importance of Kisuke's existence shot up to the top of Stralit's priorities, 'Do I have to report this to the higher-ups?... This is the first time we've met another race that could naturally use their soul to strengthen themselves.'

"Tell everyone to back off. I'm observing him myself." Stralit commanded, "And reclassify... No... Purge the data we've gathered tonight."

"P-purge!?"

"You heard me. And brief everyone involved in this operation to never release any information that they saw and heard today. Or else, there'll be heavy consequences and I won't be able to save any of you."

"U-understood!"

Little did he know that the same 'higher-ups' are hiding the fact that someone else could use Spirit Techniques aside from them. And that someone is currently the one who locked the whole Earth up.
