Chapter 29
Commander was walking straight the corridor. He heard how Haze walked after him, but then she did a turn to somewhere else.
'It seems Drunkard is lucky today.' Commander thought continuing his way, 'I hope Professor will do everything like usually. I think it's good to drink something, the seal is broken and friend I dead.' he rubbed his nose, 'Damn, I need a vacation.' he entered the room which was made for conferences and saw a woman with fair hair and a cute face. She was wearing a dark green uniform, he hair were tide in not a long pony tail.
"Glad that you're still here." the woman chuckled seeing the man in front of her.
She was much younger than Commander, but still elder than Tatsurou and Yukikaze, probably she was twenty five years old.
"The hell brought you here." the man seemed he wasn't glad to see her.
"I thought you'll be a little more hospital to me, offered me a glass of coffee or tea." the woman chuckled.
"I'm not in mood to play with you in such games, besides you have the one who should offer you that." Commander watched at her with serious eyes, "The seal is destroyed and Splash is dead."
"I see." the woman nodded, "It seems the day is really messy."
"I'd see what you'd do on my place here." Commander didn't remove his eyes from her.
"I wouldn't like to be on your place." the woman said, "To be a mere messenger between darling and you all is enough for me." she replied him and saw how he sat in front of her.
"What have you brought here?" Cyclopes asked her, "I didn't ask anything to bring me."
"Probably you forgot." she smiled and put a smile pile of papers onto the table, "Here."
Commander took the papers and looked at the front page, where was written Mizuki Yasuhiro code name 'Sparkle'.
"Is it?" Commander looked at the woman.
"Yes, the documents on Yukikaze's father." she nodded, "I was explained about my cargo and I was watching after it carefully."
The man took the papers, and started to run by them with his eye. He checked each paper, he counted about fifteen pages.
"It's direct information on him." Commander looked at the woman with surprise, "It also was started by Vereshagin's father."
"Yes, but you must understand that it's the information that touches only 'Red Division', and it's up to ou to give them or not. He has no scaring in giving them to Taimanin, but on the contrary, he believes Japanese government will drop the sanctions they hung onto their family."
"Well, seeing that they will do that I think." Commander crossed his hands, "After all, it's a direct information about our protection of Japan for Yasuhiro's help."
"Yes, and the structures of Vereshagin aren't mentioned here so there is only the work of 'Red Division', nothing more."
"It's really a wise sign for him, now he became s as smart as his father." Commander put aside the papers.
"His father was a blind fool." the woman disagreed with the man, "If he was he would help to Yugoslavia too, but Andrew did everything himself."
"And put in danger everything what their family created." Cyclopes replied, "I hear about it and would never allow to join to that conflict, I don't understand how former leader could allow mercenaries to go there."
"I'm not here to discuss policy with you." the woman said, "I'll always be on the side of my Andrew and Drunkard. My business is done." she got up and went to the door, that was behind Commander, "Give them to that girl, I think she'll be happy to read about her father."
"I will." Commander nodded and turned around in order to see her back, "I must do something else before giving them to Yukikaze. I hope Hush is still here." Commander got up took the document and left the room after her.
Oleg helped Tatsurou and Yukikaze to bring Shiranui to some room where was a spacious bed. While the young ones tried to put the woman into the bed in order to feel comfortable for her. Oleg decided to find places for sitting he brought three chairs. Two of them he put on the left side of the bed and the other one on the right next to the bedside table. Yukikaze and Tatsurou sat fast, Yukikaze took the hand of her mother and looked at it with a smile.
"I can't belive I'm holding her hand." she said, "I wanted to do it for so long. Five years." she hold her hand against hers, "And finally it's became true, I have so much to talk about her, so much to ask."
"And you will." Tatsurou hugged Yukikaze, "I have lots of questions too, and I hope Auntie will answer them." he smiled gently also taking her hand.
"You did a really hard work." Oleg said them with a smile, "Not all can do anything like that in your age. And you know what, I'm really proud of you."
"We must thank you too, sensei." Tatsurou turned to the man, "If not your help, we wouldn't be able to join 'Red Division' and rescue Auntie, we must thank Pavel and Hirata-sensei too for their assistance."
"Yeah, probably we should give them something for their help?" Yukikaze looked at the boy.
"No, need in it." Oleg replied them, "We're here to make good relation with you, and to save one of Taimanin is a real evidence of that."
"However, I think we'll be punished." Tatsurou sighed, "I don't know what can Igawa-sensei think."
"Don't worry, I have an idea." Oleg chuckled, Tatsurou and Yukikaze looked at him with surprised eyes.
"Sensei, is it really you?" Yukikaze looked at him with distrustful eyes.
"Yes, but don't tell anyone about what you've seen." Oleg became a little serious, "After all you deserved such treatment. If you want you can have a rest too, you earned it."
"No." Yukikaze shook with her head, "I want to be the first one whom mom will see."
"Me too." Tatsurou nodded, "If it's needed we'll sleep here."
Oleg nodded and took out a notebook Przemislav gave him. Yukikaze and Tatsurou were watching at Shiranui, as if she was about to disappear. First what Oleg saw was cursive letters. He narrowed his eyes and tried to read them.
'Damn, I hope my Polish is still good.' he thought and started reading.
'If you can't use mental powers well, that means your…' he suddenly stopped reading.
'What was that word?' he asked himself, 'Got it.' he nodded as if he remembered something.
'Brain paths are clogged and you must let them to be cleaned. That's the thing only another metal user can do. There several people who aren't created for mental empowering. That's not true, thus you're to clean those paths. Izumi is the first one whom I could make suitable for these empowering.' he stopped reading.
'It seems I have to tell everything to Maria.' Oleg pondered, 'Didn't want to tell her about it, she will start questioning, who taught me them.'
The time past and the Taimanin fall asleep too. Tatsurou leaned back onto the back of the chair, while Yukikaze laid her chest and head onto the bed of her mother. Oleg looked at them and smiled to such picture.
'I don't want to disturb them.' he smiled as he got up, 'They earned it.' he went to the door and saw a man with the eye patch, who was in a doorway too, Oleg only gave him a sign to be quite and left the room not giving Commander to enter it.
"Well, they had difficult days." Cyclopes said, "Let's give them a chance to rest well."
"Yes, we'll have the time for thrashing." Oleg nodded, "But now it's let them enjoy every moment." he put the note book into his pocket, "By the way what did you want from them?"
"To give that." Cyclopes replied showing the papers and a flash drive.
Oleg took the papers and was slightly surprised, "The documents on her father?"
"Yes, it was a real pain in the ass to get them." Commander nodded, "However, now she can understand his role in our game. Don't want to read?"
"These documents are on her father." Oleg only replied, "So she is the only along with Taimanin who can read it."
"Like always too official." Commander chuckled, "Didn't change since the academy."
"Is it good or bad?" Oleg raised his eye brow.
"For me there's no difference." Commander looked at him with his eye, "It's much important you could find your place in this life, somehow I'm glad you didn't join us."
"I have someone whom I can't throw." Oleg smiled.
"I know." Cyclopes agreed, "Take care of Maria and him too." Commander gave documents to Oleg, "After all he is the only one who reminds me her."
"Don't worry, I will." Oleg smiled and saw how the man went further the corridor, "By the way, what with Splash? Will you bury him?"
"No, we don't say good bye directly to the dead comrades. Professor takes care of everything." Commander replied thoughtfully, "However, I'll pray for him."
Oleg only nodded and said, "Where do you have a kitchen here?"
"There." Commander pointed with his right hand at the same side on an intersection continuing goring further.
Oleg went by the shown way and found kitchen quickly. There were several fridges, but there were no one there. Oleg started to check each fridge and found some fruit to eat. He took several apples, pears and even tangerines. He put them into a small bag and went back to the room where were young Taimanin along with the elder one.
When Oleg entered the room he saw that Shiranui was moving with her head. He put the bag onto the bedside table and the documents inside of it, and then he put his hand onto her forehead. She opened her eyes and saw Oleg's face.
"Good night sleepy beauty." Oleg said to her sitting onto the chair also taking out fruit out of the bag.
"You're the man who was in my head." Shiranui blinked.
"Yes, my name is Oleg." he introduced himself, "Sorry for late introducing."
"My, my we hadn't much time for that." Shiranui slightly sat up.
"Mommy…" they heard some mumbling.
Shiranui and Oleg looked at her left side and both of them smiled, seeing Yukikaze mumbling.
"I can't belive it." Shiranui whispered trying not to cry, "I finally saw my daughter after these five years."
"I belive you have a lot to discuss." Oleg looked at her he took a dagger out of his tunic and started to slice the apple.
"As I remember right, you're the teacher of my daughter, am I right?" Shiranui looked at Oleg, who only nodded, "I don't remember anything about foreigners in the academy."
"Well, you're to know a lot, even these three months for me were a lot." Oleg gave her a piece of the apple, Shiranui took it with a free hand, as the second one was taken by Yukikaze, and put it in her mouth.
"I think my head will explode of such amount of information." Shiranui joked, "Can I ask you a question?" Oleg nodded, "Does Asagi know about what Yukikaze Tatsurou are doing?"
"Do you think she would let them go with mercenaries?" Oleg looked at her with puzzled expression, "I, my student and Chikeko helped me in it."
"Chikeko too?" Shiranui looked at Oleg with a slight surprise, "Well, since she is here too, then it means I shouldn't worry about you. Where are you from, by the way?"
"Russia." Oleg replied merely, "There two Russian teachers and students in Gosha. Our countries joined forces on fighting one criminal organization."
"NOMAD or Incubus Faction?" Shiranui asked him.
"None of them." he gave her another piece of apple, "It's 'The Third Law', and they are much more troublesome that these ones."
"It seems I have to study a lot about current situation." Shiranui ate the apple.
"Asagi will explain you everything, if you need to know something too, just ask me too I'll tell everything I know about them."
"And where we're right now?" Shiranui asked him.
"It's the shelter of 'Red Division'. They're also our allies in fighting those scums." he decided to eat another piece of apple, and the other one gave to Shiranui, "However you're still know about them." he membered the papers in the bedside table.
Yukikaze started to roll over. Shiranui put her hand onto her head and said with a smile.
"My little hero. I'm really happy to see she became like that, and even Tatsurou is with her."
"He is really interesting boy." Oleg praised the boy, "I didn't think he would pass along with Yukikaze the whole way. However he joined her and also went inside your head to fight the nightmare."
"And about blue haired man." Shiranui remembered Splash, "Is he…"
"Died." Oleg sighed starting to peel the tangerine, "He saved your daughter."
"I see." Shiranui nodded, "I didn't want anyone die because of me."
"Well, as I understood he had some debt in front of your husband, so he sacrificed himself." Oleg tried to explained what he didn't knew.
"Yasuhiro? Is he dead?" Shiranui looked with shocked eyes.
"Well, they give me a document which I'll give later in Gosha." Oleg said, "I don't know a lot about this so you'll know everything from it."
Shiranui wanted say something, but felt how Yukikaze raised her head.
"Mom?" she rubbed her sleepy eyes.
"Good morning." Shiranui looked at Yukikaze with happy eyes, "Did you sleep well, dear?"
"Mom!" Yukikaze exclaimed, Tatsurou even felt from the chair because of such unexpected thing, "How are you? Nothing bad?" Yukikaze looked at the face of her mother.
"Nothing to worry, I think." Shiranui smiled to Yukikaze and looked at Tatsurou, "Tatsurou? Are alright?"
"Auntie?" Tatsurou turned his head, which he was rubbing, "You awoke!"
Yukikaze and Tatsurou quickly hugged the woman. Yukikaze started to cry because of such happiness, Shiranui, who tried to hold herself in front of a foreigner couldn't hold her any longer and cried too.
"Mom! I was missing you. I… I can't find words…" Yukikaze was sobbing.
"I know dear." Shiranui hugged Yukikaze, "I also don't know what to say, I…" she stumbled, "Sorry for being weak and broking my promise to return."
"You're not weak!" Yukikaze protested.
"You could take your bad side down, Auntie!" Tatsurou said too, "You're one of the strongest people!"
"Thank you." Shiranui sobbed too, "Thank you for saving me from that nightmare… I… don't know what I would do if I'd hurt you two."
Oleg got up and followed to the exit, however he put the tangerine next to Shiranui.
"I think I'm an extra person here." Oleg replied them, "Have a good talk." he left the room then.
"I hope you listened to Rinko." Oleg heard Shiranui's voice, "And didn't cause her troubles, while I'm was out?" she tried to hold her voice marry, but it was difficult.
"Of course not!" Yukikaze protested, "But you know what?" Shiranui looked at Yukikaze with interest, "We're a real couple now."
"Nice to here." the woman patted her daughter, "I hope you don't bother Tatsurou a lot."
"No, she doesn't." Tatsurou answered, "I even went for that trip for Yukikaze, and if not her persistence I wouldn't be able to become more decisive."
"My, my, our Tatsurou became so manly. I'm surprised." Shiranui chuckled happily, "But I'm glad you two became stronger."
"By the way, mom!" Yukikaze turned to the woman again, "When we return to Gosha, I hope you'll cook something for tasty, won't you?"
"I want to eat Auntie's food too." Tatsurou nodded too.
"Sure, I'll do it." the woman happily answered.
They were talking for the whole night Tatsurou and Yukikaze told what happened with them on their journey, about the members of 'Red Division'. Yukikaze told about Splash's story about her father and Shiranui's husband. When Shiranui understood what happened to her beloved husband she cried, but Yukikaze and Tatsurou could calm her. She told about Drunkard and Haze, Shiranui could remember a man in a service cap and a greatcoat, but her memory about him was vague, as her evil side fought him. They told some things even about Commander, how they had training with him and how difficult the fight was. However they could impress him.
Shiranui could only praise her daughter and her boyfriend for their progress. She had mixed feeling of happiness and sorrow. She was happy that Yukikaze could do everything alone without her help, glad for Asagi, Rinko and Tatsurou watching after her. But from the other side she was sad that she couldn't share all that with them all, for her absence. However she gave a promise to herself not to repeat that mistake again.
Professor appeared on a high skyscraper, a night sky and strong autumn wind met him.
"You're late, it's doesn't seem like you." the creature that resembled a dragon with wings said to the lizard person, "Has something happened?"
"Splash, has sacrificed himself for the young Taimanin." Professor explained, "I was dealing with his body."
"I see." the dragon roared, "So I can finally ask you, the hell you didn't tell me about Tyngak? If you'd tell me about him I'd prepare myself better."
"I didn't know he would be resurrected that fast." Professor replied, "When you fought him did you feel something?"
"Don't question me! I'm the one who is doing that."
"Dokboq, I want to know before starting to answer." Professor said, "Did you feel something?"
"Well, I felt like he was gain his conscious." Dokboq answered, "Like it was still an empty golem that fought with his instincts."
"I see, we have time then." Professor said pondering, "We must capture that boy, if everything is done right he'll be a great help to Taimanin and hunters."
"How?" the demon was surprised with such an answer.
"The power of the first demon lord of the second line will not also give him significant aid for future, but also will raise their bounds." Professor stated, "It'll help them to increase their trusting."
"Damn, can ou explain everything clearly?" the dragon humanoid roared, "I hate you puzzles!"
"If not my puzzles you wouldn't join me in fighting demons." Professor smirked with his toothless mouth, "However the third seal is destroyed and difficult to predict what it can cause."
"What do you mean?" Dokboq didn't understand him.
"I feel some instability. Like something is happening. It's difficult to explain, but it's so."
"I see." the dragon grunted, "I'll fly over the Tokyo Kingdom then."
"No, it's in Tokyo I think." Professor replied with a serious voice, "However, I also feel it in Demon world."
"Well, I'll take Tokyo and you'll take Demon world, you know that pit much better than me, so you'll quickly find everything there." the dragon humanoid offered his idea.
"I think we'll do so." Professor agreed with it, "Now, it's time when we must join Taimanin as three demon lords we'll be difficult for them."
"I don't even understand how to defeat them together. Atet and Tyngak were strong, however the boy with the sword scared him."
"Yes, I noticed it too." Professor remembered the fight with two demon lords, "Next time, I think luck shall be on our side."
"Let's hope so." Dokboq exhaled and then took a wing.
The night past really fast, Yukikaze and Tatsurou didn't felt sleepy at all and spent the whole night in talking. Shiranui was only listening and giving her comments to their words. The woman was happy, she could hear the voice of those who she loved and missed, while Yukikaze and Tatsurou felt the same.
However their talk was interrupt by a knock at the door. Shiranui allowed to come in and she saw Oleg along with a blonde hair and an eye patch.
"Chatting?" he only asked Yukikaze and Tatsurou.
"Kinda." Yukikaze replied him happily.
"Nice to see." Commander replied her, "So, you're Mizuki Shiranui, nice to meet you can call me Cyclopes."
"I understood." She looked at his eye patch.
"Well I don't want to disturb you, but we must go. Everyone has left this place we're the last who is still here." Commander wanted to turn around, but asked Shiranui, "Can you walk? Or should I carry you?"
"Didn't wait a helping hand from mercenary." Shiranui chuckled, "I think I'm able to go myself." she got up and tried had a little walk.
"Fine, check her mental state and we'll go." Oleg nodded and came to Shiranui.
The man put his hand onto Shiranui's head and closed his eyes, after several seconds he removed his hand.
"She is fine, nothing abnormal."
Commander nodded and prepared to leave the room. Yukikaze and Tatsurou got up too and followed the men still chatting with Shiranui. Oleg took the papers out of the table and checked his pocket where he put the USB drive. Every one packed everything, and was about to leave. They went to the room where was the big seal. Commander told everyone to stood in it. And next moment they appeared in another room.
"Finally we left that damn underground pit." Commander spitted, "I can't wait to have fresh air."
Commander opened the door of the room which looked like the previous one, and then after walking by a corridor they came to the bar.
"Good morning Commander!" they heard a voice it was a man with pointed ears and with long fair hair, he saw that other four people went after him, "Well young ones are here too and you miss…" the elf stumbled on the woman and the man.
"It's my mom whom we were discussing." Yukikaze answered the elf, she quickly remembered the barman.
"Ah, I see." the elf nodded, "So, that means everything is well, I started to worry, Drunkard Haze and the rest were gloomy and didn't say even a single word."
"I thought they would tell you about Splash's death." Commander sighed, "I don't understand why Drunkard didn't tell anything."
"Well, they drank one glass of whisky and then gone." the elf replied, "No I see why they were like that." he became a little upset.
"Shouldn't we say goodbye to him?" Tatsurou asked the man.
"We don't do that." Commander replied, "Thought we're all family we never do such a thing, because our contention is work nothing more." Commander headed to the exit.
The bar was empty so they could leave it not attracting attention. The sun barely started to raise and a cold wind blew on them.
"So good." Tatsurou stretched his arm, "I missed surface a lot."
"Yeah, it's really good after being in that damn brothel, and that underground shit." Yukikaze did the same.
"My, my, what a language." Shiranui looked at Yukikaze, "It seems mommy should give a proper lecture when we return."
Yukikaze shut her mouth understanding she should find correct words now as mother was near her.
"Do you remember where are your shelters or a place where your planes take you?" Commander asked Oleg.
"Yes, on location for that isn't far." Oleg nodded trying to remember something.
"I'll help you to reach it, but then I'll go for my own business, I hope you don't mind." Commander told them.
"If you're in a hurry you shouldn't help us." Oleg didn't want to hold the man who was elder than he was, but then only jumped started to jump onto the building, everyone headed after him, "Well, it must there." Oleg pointed to the opposite side to the sun.
Commander was not far from Shiranui, Yukikaze and Tatsurou were on the other side, while Oleg was in the head of the squad.
"So, kids didn't you think to join us?" Commander suddenly asked, "Your help will be significant."
"Sorry, but our decision is the same." Yukikaze answered him, "We're Taimanin and our place in is in Gosha."
"However it was really good to have an opportunity to fight with you." Tatsurou said, "It was the experience I needed in my life."
Commander chuckled, "You have really good kids Shiranui. Take care of them."
"I will." she said with a smile, "However, mommy isn't glad that you took Yukikaze to bar, I hope she didn't drink there with big guys?"
"Of course, we didn't!" Yukikaze shouted, "Only juice!" Shiranui laughed along with Tatsurou.
Their way wasn't long when they came to the needed spot Oleg could contact with the vehicle with the help of Tatsurou's communicator.
"I'm looking forward to see you in action." Commander looked at Shiranui, "Your help will be really important in the future."
"Honestly, I want to see you in battle too." Shiranui answered the man, "So I'll wait to see helpers of my daughter again."
Cyclopes nodded and then followed his way somewhere else leaving the Taimanin and the Russian hunter to wait the vehicle that will take him back to Gosha Village. As their way, waiting wasn't long and lasted only fifteen or so minutes. The vehicle took them and delivered them to Gosha Village fast.
Shiranui was worried, excited and happy everything combined in her head and she didn't know what will happen to here there, how everything changed in these five years. Tatsurou and Yukikaze tried to calm her telling everything is almost the same, while Oleg's eyes were in the notebook that was given by former Polish mentor. In his other hand were the needed papers about Mizuki Yasuhiro.
The vehicle delivered them to the hangar for other air transports. They went out of it and Oleg saw a leaving group that headed to exit from the hangar. He looked carefully and recognized a girl in a blue uniform with blue hair and tanned skin.
"Ikenami!" Oleg shouted attracting attention of the girl.
"What?" Ren turned around and was stumbled when saw Oleg leaving another transport, "Oleg-sensei?" Ren was astonished of the sight of the man.
Then Yukikaze and Tatsurou jumped out of it.
"Yukikaze? Tatsurou?" Ren became more surprised there even was heard noise behind Ren in the corridor.
Ren moved aside and let the crowd to enter it. Everyone who was on a mission with Oleg yesterday came even Maria with Ilya. Asagi went ahead and looked at the trio with a serious and even a little scaring eyes. Rinko also couldn't remove her eyes from her brother and his girlfriend.
'He didn't lie.' Rinko exhaled.
"I hope you have a proper explanation." Asagi came to them, Murasaki was also next to her.
"I think someone should make a proper apologies." The woman with the axe also stared at her students.
"Sorry for making you all worried." Tatsurou bowed in a sign of excuse, "But we had no other option."
"Because you'd never let us to do what we wanted to do." Yukikaze joined.
"What do you mean?" Asagi didn't like their answer, but then was shocked of what she saw.
"Long time no see, Asagi." Shiranui jumped from the vehicle.
"Sh… Shiranui?" Asagi was shocked of what she saw.
"Mizuki-san?" Murasaki was astonished too, "But… how?"
"Shiranui?" Sakura also was astonished.
"Is it Mizuki Shiranui?" Maki was shocked of seeing a woman in black and white uniform with a ribbon in her hair too.
The only who seemed not surprised were Russian hunters. Ren was surprised, but since she was informed she wasn't puzzled and excited as the other. Chikeko was also had mixed feelings because she was in numbers of those who helped them to go for that venture. No one knew how to start the talk so Shiranui decided to disturb the pause herself.
"I thought the meeting will be a little funnier." Shiranui chuckled, "You look like as if you saw a ghost."
"Mom is real." Yukikaze chuckled as she took the hand of her mother, "See?"
"I can't belive it." Asagi still was shocked, "How? When? Where?" she couldn't even form her question.
"It's a long story." Oleg said to her.
"We'll tell you everything sensei." Tatsurou nodded at Oleg's words.
"I'm eager to hear everything." Asagi could only reply.
The team headed to the Gosha Academy which wasn't far from the hangar facility. Everyone was puzzled. Shiranui decided to stay calm for the whole way and prepare to protect Yukikaze, Tatsurou, Oleg, Chikeko and the Russian student Oleg told her. She saw only two foreigners they were the one in the girlish uniform and guns and the boy with a sword, who was next to the tanned girl.
'I must know really a lot.' Shiranui only thought.
The way to the academy wasn't long, however it seemed really hard. As Sakura, Asagi and Murasaki didn't know what to think and wanted to hear everything. When they finally reached the conference hall. Everyone took free places, Oleg gave a place for Shiranui and decided to stand still holding papers in his hand.
"Now, I demand to know what were you two doing." Asagi said seriously as she sat in the middle of the table.
Yukikaze wanted to start explanation, but Oleg interrupted her.
"I'll do it." Asagi looked at him with puzzled expression, "First I must start from the beginning first of all, they went not alone, but with a help."
"With a help?" Asagi didn't understand his words, "As I remember you was in the village and…" Asagi stumbled and looked at Chikeko, "It seems I understand."
"Yes, Chikeko and Pavel agreed to help, however the idea of leaving belonged to me alone." Oleg continued, "Pavel and Chikeko's task was in delivering both of them to the point and let 'Red Division' to take them."
"'Red Division?" Murasaki asked the man, "What's their point here?"
"It's here." Oleg came to Asagi's place and put the documents in front of her, "I don't know myself it well. But Mizuki Yasuhiro has some connection to 'Red Division'. I was told there all information on him."
"Yeah, my dad in not some traitor!" Yukikaze said to Asagi.
"How do you…?" Asagi looked at Yukikaze.
"Well, it'll wait." Oleg interrupted Asagi, "Yukikaze tell further."
"Well, I and the other member of that division sneaked into the brothel in order to find mom. Tatsurou stayed on protection. We were about to start an uproar there. But everything became much better as something went wrong."
"It happened during the situation with the seal." Oleg explained, "I left you because I noticed them and wanted to deliver them back to the base."
"You like to make problems, don't you?" Maria sighed shaking with her head.
"Sorry for making you to worry." Oleg looked at his countrywoman, "Well, in some ways 'Red Division' paid debt helping Yukikaze for what her father did for them."
Asagi did a quick examining of the report there was a direct information on his even his signature was there.
"So, if not him UFS would continue invading upon Japan." Asagi pondered.
"What do you mean?" Murasaki didn't understand the word of the leader Taimanin.
"At least I'm glad he didn't work with other countries." Asagi pondered about something, "But I'm surprised the Vereshagins was one of his employer."
"Their family has a lot of businesses, but the places where the concentrated everything are Russia and Yugoslavia." Oleg said, "No wonder he could gain a strong ally that UFS scared of him."
"I've heard about them." Asagi nodded, "But didn't know that Yasuhiro worked with someone so popular."
"I think I've started to understand his small leavings." Shiranui entered their conversation.
"There direct information on his mission he received from 'Red Division." Asagi closed the document, "However I think he helped them much more than is written here."
"That's what I don't know." Oleg replied.
"Does it mean you also know members of 'Red Division' well?" Asagi looked at him with a strange glance.
"Sis, I don't think…"
"Sakura, calm down please." Asagi didn't let her younger sister to finish.
"They want to recruit me." Oleg confessed, "However I reject their offer."
"Why?" Murasaki asked him, his eyes looked at Maria who was watching at him.
"I see." Asagi understood what held him.
She did a pause, Asagi was tapping with her fingers by the table. None of presenters wanted to interrupt her. However Oleg decided to do so.
"I'm ready to accept whatever punishment you'll give. I'm ready to return back to Russia if it's needed." Oleg looked at her, "And there I'll be punished properly."
"No way!" Pavel stood up, even his chair fell onto the floor, "I also took action in it so the punishment must be mine too!"
"Pavel." Ren tried to hold the boy.
"If you want someone to punish, then it should be me." Chikeko got up, "I knew about everything in the beginning, and didn't do anything to prevent it, but helped them to leave Gosha sending them in a dangerous adventure." Asagi looked puzzled at Chikeko, Sakura seemed glad Oleg had protectors.
"No, the punishment should be ours, because we wanted that." Yukikaze tried to protect Oleg too, "If not we he wouldn't make such a plan and we ould stay here."
"Then you should punish me." Shiranui raised her hand, "After all it happened because of me and my fail on that mission. If not that nothing of that would happen."
Oleg only smiled, he was glad that all of them wanted to protect him.
"Well, of course I can't leave it unnoticed." Asagi started, "You put in danger the students of Gosha Academy, however you wanted to help not only Yukikaze, but also to entire village." everyone was surprised how Asagi turned the situation, "You brought the evidence of Yasuhiro's innocence. And at the same time you did everything to help and protect not only students, but also your colleagues." she remembered the occasion during their vacation, "And I'll minimize your punishment." Asagi smiled, "All of those who took part in it will work at Inageya for a week. You'll put a uniform she'll give you."
"In a sweetshop?" Oleg remembered the place, "Probably deportation?"
Everyone laughed at it except Murasaki and Asagi, the second woman only chuckled and added.
"Rejections aren't acceptable, one week after lessons till the evening." Asagi looked at all of them, "For now we're done. The conversation about the results of our mission will be tomorrow. For today you can have a day off the teachers can be free too. Shiranui…" she turned to the woman then, "Please stay."
"Got it." Shiranui nodded.
Everyone started to leave. All were glad that the result was so unexpected. Rinko quickly joined to her brother and her childhood friend. Pavel was surrounded by Maki and Aki too, while Oleg was surrounded with Chikeko and Sakura.
When everyone left the office Asagi finally decided to start.
"I must apologize to you." Asagi started, "I'm sorry for not being able to find you, and for stopping your searches."
"You shouldn't be sorry for that." Shiranui put her hand onto Asagi's shoulder, "I took that cursed mission and it was me who failed on it, so it must be me who must apologize. Even I probably do the same thing on your place."
"Five years I was blaming myself for that stupid mistake I took you from Yukikaze and in some place I'm in charge of Yasuhiro's death, if only I had more information…"
"Stop that blaming." Shiranui interfered, "Blaming yourself will only make you feel worse. I know it know better than anyone. You did what you had to do, and I did what I had to. I fail in this mission and the fault is mine, but now I'm here and you know I'm really glad to see you all, this instead of sitting and apologizing for past years why not to celebrate my return?"
"Yeah!" the door suddenly banged, "Why not to do so?"
"Sakura?" Asagi didn't seem glad her younger sister was listening to them behind the door, but then the teachers entered the office after Sakura.
"I'm sorry Asagi, we tried to remove her from the door." Murasaki sighed.
"She is right." Oleg nodded, "After all we must live in today, not letting the past to worry us." he glanced at Maria who only looked at Shiranui.
"I agree with him." Maria nodded, "I don't know the whole picture, but you should do what you do and not blame for mistake of others."
'I hope you understood it too.' Oleg thought about Maria.
"At the same time it's a good opportunity to celebrate!" Sakura exclaimed, "What are we waiting for?" even Murasaki chuckled at these words.
"Yeah, you're right." Asagi nodded, "And about your punishment it'll start from tomorrow." Asagi said to Oleg and Chikeko, "You'll go too Oleg, after all if not you difficult to say what could happen to Shiranui."
"By the way, is anything opened here in such hour?" Maria asked the principle.
"Don't worry, I know the place where we can do that." Asagi smiled, and then headed ahead to the exit.
Shiranui followed Asagi, "And what about kids?"
"Well, we told them to go and have their celebration." Murasaki replied.
"Yeah, kids aren't allowed to drink alcohol." Sakura chuckled, "So it'll be just the party for big girls and a boy."
"Maybe we should call Takeuti? To be the only man there is…" Oleg didn't liked the idea he will be surrounded by a bunch of woman who were really beautiful.
"Are you excited?" Sakura chuckled, "Don't worry I'll sit next to you."
"I'll sit too." Chikeko didn't like such idea, "I helped Oleg in that so I can do that."
"My, my." Shiranui laughed wiping a tear under her eye, "Didn't know you have a love triangle here."
Oleg, and two women tensed of such words even Maria didn't feel fine of these words.
"I'd say a square." Sakura chuckled glancing at Maria.
"Well!" Oleg coughed in his fist, "If we decided to have a party, let's go then." he left the office.
'I remember about her.' Shiranui looked at Maria remembering her projection in her head.
The teachers left the academy. However before that Asagi informed the security to tell that it's a day off today as the reason of that will be explained tomorrow. Asagi decided to be a little selfish for at least one day. No one found problems in that even Murasaki decided to do so too. On their way Shiranui and Maria had a little chatting they presented themselves to each other in order not to have awkward moments in the future.
The bar was found quickly as Asagi was their guide they quickly ordered the table. The staff seemed astonished too when they saw a woman with ribbon in her hair, while the passersby also were shocked and couldn't belive to their eyes.
When everyone took their places and when drink were brought with snacks.
"Well let's drink for Shiranui, who was saved by Yukikaze and Tatsurou!" Asagi got up and raised her glass, even waiters with the barman decided to raise a glass for that, "And for those who gave them all to her rescue."
"Let's!" everyone exclaimed and then dried their glasses.
The talk started Asagi told about everything what happened for these years she even told about 'The Third Law', that could give a lot of troubles for three months. Everyone took part in the discussion, Oleg and Maria gave their words on the organization. Sakura was sharing her opinions too as energetically as always, Murasaki decided not to lecture her and talked too, along with Chikeko. Their celebration continued for a lot of time Asagi told even about the demon lords of three lines and the legend Pavel told her.
"You know, since you mention I barely remembered a person in metal armor. He used ice and the color of the armor was white."
"I think it's another demon lord." Asagi said, "But how could you meet him?"
"Well, twice the first time was in another brother, and the second was when I fought the man in orange uniform and a mask with some company."
"Torch." Oleg was surprised, Shiranui also encountered them, "I'm surprised you could also meet with them."
"Well since three demon lords of the second line are here we'll have a lot of problems." Asagi frowned.
"If you think I'll sit in my office and working with papers you're mistaken." Shiranui chuckled t Asagi's ponders, "I'll help you with everything I can."
"From celebration to work." Oleg said.
"Have a small vacation at least." Chikeko was worried for Shiranui.
"I'll have while I will be working with papers." Shiranui chuckled.
The event continued. The group was sitting till the evening, Chikeko was unable to walk, while the others were in a good condition. Murasaki decided to deliver Chikeko to home, while Asagi and Shiranui went on their own. Maria decided to go to bed fast too as she had lessons tomorrow. While Sakura decided to drag Oleg on a walking.
Sakura continued the talk, but all her words were devoted to his idea on saving Shiranui.
"Didn't know these three months would change everything that much." Sakura looked at Oleg, "Working with you saving Shiranui, demon lords. But you know what?"
"What?" Oleg asked her.
"I'm happy you all came here." Sakura smiled, "If not you Shiranui wouldn't be save and turned into a demon."
"I'm glad that they could do it in time." Oleg smiled too, "After all if they wouldn't do that I'd punish them myself."
Sakura brought Oleg to the dormitory, both of them still were in their battle uniforms. However there was no problem with that for them.
"I want to give you a reward." Sakura mumbled, she took him for his collar and pressed her lips against his.
"What?" Oleg could say the only word.
"It's for everything what you did for us." Sakura said when she broke the kiss, "Probably I'm not as elegant as Maria or Chikeko, but I think to do it straight isn't bad."
"Well, in some places you're not elegant as them."
Sakura pouted her cheeks, "Thanks."
"But your attitude and character suits you better, you should don't put on a mask and if something happens to you always stay yourself and never change. That what I think is good in you." Oleg did a compliment to Sakura making her blushing.
"Well, thank you probably." Sakura confused then she gave him a kiss in his cheek and ran forward, "I hope you'll have a cute dressing at Inageya! I'll come to see you tomorrow!"
"Yes, yes." Oleg waved to her, "I've almost forgotten about it."
And with a deep sigh he went to the dormitory in order to have a proper sleep after all those events.
