(Kyosei's View)

One thing I learned with the cults appearing nowadays is that they disregard human lives and treat them as disposable tools or much worse, which is pretty messed up in my opinion. The ones who get the most abuse is the female survivors who are either treated as slaves or they will be used as human targets just like the woman I met before who died after trying to drag Kogure out of danger.

I already cleaned up the very first cult I encountered before and massacred most of their members while saving a few of the victims that managed to survive. If these cults has their own beliefs and has been saving people to grow their cult and create their own organization without wasting any human lives just for the fun, I might have left them alone since they don't just kill people. As for those opposite of what I mentioned, I think that is a different story.

"By the way Kyosei, Zecker already sent me a blueprint Zhao Fang developed. Remember the prototype gadget that allows us to create our own internet connection when the internet connection that is still up goes down? He already completed it and has sent the blueprint."

On the laptop of Nanami, Zecker, the american hacker is waving. As always, they talk in English which is why I have to switch on my English speaking skills.

"Oh, Akuma, it's been a while hasn't it?"

"No, it isn't. It's just a few days since we last talk to each other."

"Now, now. Don't be such a wet blanket. There is nothing wrong greeting you like that."

"So, does that prototype already got finalized?"

"Yes. As you can see, Zhao Fang's situation in his homeland is already dire. The internet connection and the cellular data they have in there already broke down and he can't access the internet anymore. Good thing for him, he is in his final stages of finishing the prototype. After two days, he finished the prototype and created it with working internet connection. Once he get to connect again, he sent us the blueprint and how to set it up for it to properly work."

"He didn't ask for any charge like virtual money or anything? Something so helpful as his invention and he just gave it for free?"

"Nah, he is doing well on his own and he didn't need money especially if money no longer has a value in this chaotic sh*tty world. He shared it with us so that the prototype can be improved further as he only created something simple that can allow him to connect to the internet. He can only do much on his own so he decided to share it to us to allow it to develop more."

"I see, The more minds helping mold and upgrade this tech, the better it will function as an alternative. I never expected him to be so open minded on it. He is thinking far ahead rather than thinking on what is going to happen in the present."

"Alright, let's skip on that. What I contacted Nanami about is the current situation on your place. Although America has it hard too despite the guns, the casualties is not that big and dangerous. Of course, we still struggle at night too. We just wanted to know what is the current situation on your side too."

Before I can open my mouth, someone opened the door of the control room and waltz inside nonchalantly. I thought it would be Haru but didn't expect to see someone else. It was none other than Kogure.

"Japan is still under ruin considering that people did not get to prepare on the attack, I must say that the survivors and the soldiers are all having a slight bad and good time. Despite not getting any kind of strong firearms and relied most on things they can use for everyday lives that can kill."

Nanami didn't expect Kogure's entrance and shocked by how this kid is acting mature and a.d.u.l.t.

"Who is this kid Kyosei? Is it one of the survivors that you brought along with you?" Nanami asked.

"He is the one and only survivor I brought here along since I returned. I have no luck finding others alive aside from this kid."

"Good day to you, miss. I am Kogure and you can say that I am a matured kid that can easily get into the talks of a.d.u.l.ts without difficulty. So if you are busy with your talks with this chap in the laptop, please do so and continue, though I will be joining in this conversation as it piques my interest."

"(Whistles) This kid is a smooth talker!" Zecker said.

"You flatter me but no. That is just my way of ordinary talking. In any case, Osaka might have been under barrage of deadly infected appearing left and right and Tokyo closed off the borders all of a sudden and monopolizing the soldiers there. That leaves us behind without anyone else to rely on but ourselves and a few of the SDF who were also abandoned during the middle of the fight and some were left behind during the extraction to act as decoy but ended up alive and well."

"How did you know these things? These information is quite exclusive to us in Blood Battalion members and the ex- SDF soldiers themselves!" Nanami frowned as she confronts Kogure.

"Heh, as a kid with great curiosity and quite a good skill at snooping data and other information due to my genius mind, this information is nothing to me."

"Kyosei, just what kind of abomination kid did you brought back with us?" Nanami glared at me.

"Just deal with him. I think you two would get along with each other just fine."

"Whatever, if she doesn't believe what I am saying then I don't care. I am just stating those things from what I have obtained so far."

Zecker nodded as he notes down something.

"I see. Things seems to be in the same intensity of chaos as my place. Since the president is no longer around after his sacrifice during the breach in white house, the other politicians took this time to take the leadership and use this chance to rule. I am not sure if it will be going to change into war soon."

"Just like Sun Tzu1said, "In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity." Those politicians are using this kind of mindset to immediately get to rule over the masses as they are hungry of power," Kogure said.

Zecker scratch his head as he looked like he just met someone. Then, in the video fees, the noises in the background has changed from silence to gunshots.

"Ah sh*t, looks like there is some breach again. Gotta chat later dudes and gals."

After that, the feed drops, leaving a static screen and since no one else is in the chat, Nanami turned off her own video feed and close the laptop.

"As expected, there is only momentary peace before chaos and trouble is always brewing in the background. I am not surprised," Kogure sighed.

"Kyosei, are you sure this kid is really a kid and not an a.d.u.l.t pretending to be a kid? Even matured kids in his age does not act so mature like this," Nanami is confused as she looks at me to question who Kogure is.

Since I am also confused on Kogure's latest behavior, I decided to confront him on this.

"Are you lying to me when you said you are seven years old? Because if I am the one going to evaluate your age, you are far old enough to be around 30 or older than that despite your looks and your height."

Kogure smiled and suddenly pulls out an eyeglass and puts it on.

"Heh, I thought you would catch it sooner but I guess looking like a kid will always deceive other people. And yes, you are right in your assumption there, Little Akuma, Kyosei. I am no longer a seven years old. Also, I would suggest that you add "Doctor" if you try to address me."

"A doctor? Wait, not everyone called a doctor is actually a doctor. Are you perhaps a scientist?!" Nanami is already trying to pull out the gun on her waist as she stares at Kogure.

"Don't be too defensive, miss. I am indeed a scientist. And yes, you don't need to pull out your gun and point it at me. I am not going to do anything dangerous. I am just a mere scientist that looks like a kid. Also, Kyosei, your guess on my age is a bit close but not quite. Since you almost guessed it, I think I should clarify that I am still 37 years old." Sun Tzu was a Chinese general, military strategist, writer and philosopher who lived in the Eastern Zhou period of ancient China. Sun Tzu is traditionally credited as the author of The Art of War, an influential work of military strategy that has affected both Western and East Asian philosophy and military thinking.
