Path Of Blood - 89 Chapter 81

They were speeding through the tunnels, Haruki was running as he was thinking. Team RWBY followed closely behind him. Yushu and Kurenai were guarding their Six.

Blake was staring at his broad back, “I’m still chasing your back even after all these years. I couldn’t even show you how much I’ve improved.” She gripped her weapon tight.

Yang, on the other hand, was frowning. She shouted towards Haruki, “At this pace, we won’t have any Beacon to save! Don’t you have any method to make us go faster?”

Haruki pondered silently, ‘I hope that there’s an airship waiting for us at the end of this tunnel…’

Suddenly Gluttony’s voice resounded in his head.

[Hey, Dumbass! Have you forgotten the Deus ex Machina strapped in your arm?]

‘What’re you talking about? I thought that Ars Mag- – Fuck me sideways. Me and my idiot brain.’

[Why oh Why were you even chosen to wield it?]

Haruki shrugged his shoulders, “Beats me…” He looked at the people following him from behind.

“I have an airship waiting I’m going on ahead to start the engines.” He told the others. They nodded as they also increased their pace. Haruki turned into lightning and disappeared into the edge of the tunnel.

Haruki asked Ars if He is able to create it. Which in turn, Ars Gave him a list of possible vehicles he could materialize. Haruki went ahead and summoned a Lockheed SR-90 “Black Phoenix” Stealth Bomber. (A.N: Go search SR-71 Blackbird. It looks just like that. Except it’s also has a little bit of a cargo plane look in the mix.)

He was nodding his head, “Ahhh yes it’s beautiful…But this costs a lot what the hell Ars!”

Ars Magus’s mechanical voice resounded in his head.

<<It requires a lot to make, Even the Anti Matter Cube that it runs on. Most of All the Technology in your previous Dimension would cost a lot, Because of the materials they were made on.>>

[Kahahaha, You got nice taste kid. But do you still even know how to drive this thing?]

Haruki nodded, “Of course you’re looking at the Best Pilot in the Galaxy! I just Have to press autopilot then boosh! We’re done!” He said as he motioned a moving plane with his hands.

[Fuck…I honestly thought that you would be a Mary Sue…] Was the only thing gluttony could utter.

“Don’t be stupid. I’m at my best on the battlefield, nowhere else. Don’t expect me to be some kind of magical genius that popped out of another dimension that could do anything. I’m proficient in killing and that’s it.”

He said as he climbed aboard the jet. He started the engine and waited for team RWBY to catch up.

Meanwhile, on Team RWBY. they were staring at the two new faces in their group. “How long have you known Haruki?” Yang was the first one to ask.

Kurenai stared straight at her and smiled, “I’ve basically known him all my life, The same goes for my sister. We know everything about him and about you girls too.”

They all furrowed their brows, “What do you mean? Are you part of his group? I Heard Haruki say that you two were new hires?” Blake said as she put a hand on her hip. They all stopped in their tracks. “Tell us what your relationship with him is.”

“He’s our master. We were born to serve him, well something along those lines. without him, we wouldn’t even be born.” Kurenai said. Yushu, on the other hand, was staring at her nails. Ignoring what is happening around her.

Weiss furrowed her brows, “Born to serve him? what is he? some kind of noble?” Yushu scoffed at her remark, “Him? a noble? please… The world would turn upside down before even the slightest of noble demeanor gets ingrained in him.”

Weiss still not convinced about what they told her asked another but she opted that the keep moving forward. “Let’s move, but before we get to him could you answer one last question for me?”

The two looked at each other and told Weiss, “As much as we’re allowed to…” Weiss took this as a yes and asked, “Do you trust him?”

Kurenai laughed, “Hahahahaha! Like I said I wouldn’t be here without him. I’ve seen the truth about that man. I do trust him.”

Yushu rolled her eyes, “He may be an idiot, but he’s reliable nonetheless. I couldn’t ask for a better master.” Kurenai smirked at her sister’s words. “Oohh!! I’m going to tell master about this!” Yushu spat at her direction, “Shut the fuck up! ugh… it’ll get in his head.”

Blake looked at Weiss’s direction, “You see now? He probably has a good reason for why he’s hiding things from us.”

They finally reached the vehicle Haruki has materialized. Yang couldn’t help but whistle. “Wow! This is a thing of beauty! What is this? It looks like something straight out of a fairy tale!”

She ran around the plane with stars on her eyes. Ruby was the same but she was checking out the weapons. “Wow! What kind of weapons does this baby have!! Oh my!”

Weiss, on the other hand, doesn’t recognize the model of this ship. “What kind of vehicle is this?”

Haruki opened the Hatch behind the plane, “It’s The Lockheed SR-90 “Black Phoenix” Stealth Bomber. An unsanctioned military vehicle that is unknown to all kingdoms. Not even Atlas. It’s top secret
