Chapter 28: The Difference Between Us!
When Medana woke up in the morning, she heard Linda's voice over the police radio.
"Silver Knight, you bastard. What did you feed my daughter? She's been vomiting all day and is still in bed. You'll see me when you come."
Medana couldn't understand why a Lisa would be sick with the wrong symptoms. She just served her a simple gobi fried egg and rice.
What's more, the police officer is shouting at her over the police radio. Police radio is not something that only two people can hear like talking on the phone. All the field police in the city must listen. By now, the policemen know that their camp commander and Silver Knight are cooking breakfast together and raising a baby.
For Madana, it was a huge humiliation.
...
Arriving at Linda's condo, She saw Lisa sitting on the couch in the living room with a blank face, wrapped in a blanket.
"Mom... Why does the world go round and round?"
Lisa's face turned green. As for Linda, she immediately started screaming when she saw the Silver Knight.
"Tell me, what else did you feed your child? Yesterday, she vomited at school, and her abdomen still hasn't recovered. She spent the day in the hospital and has just been discharged."
According to Linda, Lisa's illness does not seem to be small. Madana began to scratch her large silver metal hood.
"I only serve plain cabbage and fried eggs and rice. There are no things like peanuts that Europeans can get food poisoning from."
Peanuts often cause food poisoning for Europeans who are not used to eating them. Genetically, They are slightly different from Asians, so the stomach does not digest well and is prone to allergies.
"Are allergies caused by genetics..."
As Madana spoke, she connected to the system and searched. Linda stood in front of her in a police uniform with her arms folded, watching as if she was about to be handcuffed at any moment.
The results from the system are...
[Foods that should not be fed to chameleons.
Green Cabbage: Usually only watery and has no nutritional value for chameleons. Eating too much can cause dehydration and stomach fullness.
Rice: Rice, a sticky grain food, is not well digested by the chameleon's digestive system. So, if you don't want your pets to die from indigestion, don't feed them.
Pepper: Chameleons hate strong spices like pepper and masala. Keep away from them.]
'Dammit... She really has allergic to Fried rice with cabbage.'
"Silver Knight...Try to repeat what the computer in your suit said."
"Heh heh.. Cabbage Fried Rice should not be fed to chameleons..."
dong.....
After that, the sound of metal clashing came out. Linda's feet, wearing thick boots, landed directly between Madana's thighs.
"Ugh..." She wasn't wearing genuine leather heels like before, so Linda didn't feel hurt when she kicked Madana. As for Medana, she was overwhelmed by some strange and dark thoughts and kept shaking.
"My God, why do the girls I know love to kick other's important place? If only I had a younger brother, I'd be dead by now."
Madana, she can't even know how to thank his little brother for going on a trip.
Today, as usual, She still have to send Linda Lisa to school. Although the girl has only been in school not for a long time, she seems to be making some friends. Luckily, thanks to some pills, she recovered quickly. This is thanks to Madana's all-knowing suit system. She found a prescription for transformation Mutants from a medical support website. She also cooked breakfast today, but she had to be careful not to cause an allergic reaction.
"Sister Medana, I'm going." The little girl in a white dress greeted Madana and ran into the class. Just as Madana was about to turn around, a boy with green hair blocked her path.
"Hey... weren't you one of that day?"
'Ah, He's mutant frog boy, isn't he?' Madana still remembers that day when she mistook the boy is a monster and threw the boy into the lake. The boy is a chubby young man, but he's not really fat. Like Lisa's tail, it's because of the fat sacs that are characteristic of a frog. A shapeshifter can hide characteristics if they want to, but it's not very confortable to live with. So they usually keep it the same.
"My name is Lucius Vaz. What's your name... the girl with the silver hair?"
Madana was shocked. They are at the entrance of the school, people have noticed and are looking around.
"You bastard, How did you call me a girl? Hmm..." Madana crossed her arms and squinted in a villainous way. A boy about fifteen years old is calling a girl with hair colour? It's rude. And she is in her twenties.
"Why? I call you a girl because you're younger than me?"
"Hmm... I'm a mature girl in my early twenties. Call me big sister... next time, call me big sister."
Madana moved closer to him with a lovely gesture, supporting her waist with one hand. After that, the boy's forehead was pat by her hand. The boy was so angry that his cheeks swelled.
"No matter what you do, I still haven't accepted that I lost yesterday. You won by relying on support equipment. I'm stronger than you, so I should be able to win."
'Hmm, How could this guy even think that?' Madana raised an eyebrow. She just met a crazy muscle man. Madana is a tech hero. It is not wrong to attack by relying on technical equipment.
"You little frog, you know? I don't have the power to do everything a frog like you can do. I won't let you transform, and if I tell you to fight me by the hand, will you do it..."
"This...this is..."
"Bad boy, there are all kinds of people in this world. There are those who use wisdom to dominate the world, and there are those who use strength alone. What's wrong with using your advantage to defeat someone else?"
"...." The boy was silent. This is the real truth.
"If you become a hero one day and are defeated by a technology-based villain, you won't end up just being thrown into a lake like me. In this world, there is no Plot Armor like in comics, manga, and games."
"....." The boy said nothing more. He hid the small hero comic in his hand behind his back.
"But at least I want to fight you again. At least I want to prove that I'm not weak."
"Alright." Medana nodded at the boy's words. Today's young people are very active. At that time, he was crazy while reading about heroes. It was only when he became an adult that he realized that the real world of heroes is more real than he thought. In the world of real heroes, strength is everything.
This time, the school allowed two of them to use the school competition field. The teachers also smile and laugh since Toadius is so excited about the battle. Finally, the lazy school frog is active again. No one wants to see Toadcius looking like depression little frog from the memes. Everyone wants to see him become a really tough hero.
Madana is wearing only the small technical gloves made the day before. The girl wearing a white dress and gloves looked so beautiful and powerful that she had eaten the whole school.
The frog has also transformed.
"This time I won't budge." The giant boiled frog quickly jumped and attacked. But Madana is calmly avoiding poisonous liquid, and slime. After avoiding the frog's tongue shots, Madana, who was jumping in the air with only her body's strength, jumped back onto the floor and looked at the frog again.
The teachers and students who were watching the competition were also amazed. Although the glove was a B-level support item, Madana had no other power to use. She dodged two hundred C-ranked attacks with the strength of an ordinary athlete.
"Your turn end?, it's my turn." Madana ran towards the big frog at a normal speed. The frog also ran. When she got close, Medana slid under the leaping frog and punched him in the thick belly.
Boom...
The giant frog rose into the air, transformed back into a human, and fell back onto the field. The referee went to see the little frog who couldn't get back up and gave Madana the win.
"The winner...the girl with the silver hair."
"...." Medana remembered that she had not told these people her name just now. But because she was confused, she stopped correcting the truth. Instead, she walked over to the frog. The frog groaned as he pressed his stomach in pain. Even her mouth is still drooling.
"Do you understand.. I defeated you not because of the support equipment or because I have too strong mutant power. Battle is like a river. You just have to be able to swim with it. You are strong, but you are fighting stubbornly and wasting your strength. While I am saving your strength and waiting for a sure attack. While you are freely spraying poison, I am studying your attacks. This is the difference."
After that Madana didn't look back and walked past the frog. But the frog knelt down in pain and said to Medana.
"Teacher... accept me as a student."
"...." Madana stood there for a moment and continued walking. The frog is cute, but she already has Lisa, She is so busy now. Why she want to take care of another kid? Making disciples is very handy.
While she was patrolling the city again in Silver Knight suit, she received an email from Lady Butterfly. Emails are not as easy to track as the phoneline, so Lady Butterflies communicates that way. Madana also opened a new account as Silverknighthouse666 @ gmail. If you don't know, it's like the name of a medieval nobleman's house.
[Dear Sir Silver Knight. According to the court's decision, most of the cases have been allowed to be charged, so like the previous cases, we will have to deal with each one. But there are too many cases and it is impossible for the two of us to face it alone. I need to hire a trusted lawyer now.]
Under the law of any country, if multiple charges are brought against a single defendant, each charge must be tried separately. Due to the dozens of cases filed against Lady Butterflies and Silver Knight, the office must be examined every day. The problem is that neither of them have that much time. So now he need to find a representative.
Currently, only one trial is scheduled because the witness, Uncle Grant, is still to be examined first in order to examine witness intimidation. Once done, the court will order to investigate each case separately. So Madana also needs to be prepared.
The silver warrior jumped into the alley where the newsstand was. It's been a week in the city, and even minor crimes don't seem to happen anymore. All this is due to her efforts. Silver Knight doesn't open a personal page like other heroes yet, but the fan page has more than 100,000 followers. No C level has ever gotten such a following.
Madana walked straight into the newspaper shop.
"Grandma, give me today's newspaper."
....
Aizawa sat in the office staring at the documents. After that, He threw everything in the trash.
"Gang...unreliable guys. Just because of a small charge, we're going to suspend all business with our company?"
When a business is sued, the bigger risk than the court is that the business partners leave. Their stocks plummet and the future is uncertain afterall. Just now, shares of the American Sakura Corporation plunged forty percent, and more than twenty projects canceled their contracts.
The assistant girl standing against the wall came forward and said.
"They don't think it will be easy for Aizawa-sama to be sued this time. Not only is the person suing the famous Silver Knight, but the one testifying is the Digory family."
The Digory family is not very famous in the world of heroes, and they are relatively wealthy. Even the richest of them, without a billionaire, is only worth $53 million. But they are the most successful in the art world, and they have an A-level hero named Mr.justice to back them up.
Mr.justice is a modern-day Sherlock Holmes or a modern-day lawyer Lincoln. He's not a combat hero, but he's a very good a lawyer hero. Even though he retired, everyone still remembers him. Because of his beauty and intelligence, he was like the sun king of the American legal world.
(note: Lawyer Lincoln is one of the best crime fiction novels of all time. Just like the lawyer Perry Mason.)
"They're even saying that Silver Knight might be Mr.justice's disciple."
"What about the other one?"
"She's definitely not a hero, just a regular news anchor."
"Hahahaha..." Aizawa raised his head and laughed dryly. The assistant girl was so scared that her whole body trembled.
Whenever Aizawa is about to kill someone, he laughs like this.
"Keep an eye on her, don't overdo it. The U.S. Central National Security Intelligence Service is already aware of us. If we move now, we'll all be dead. If we know where she's been and what she's been doing."
"Yes please."
"What about the Silver Knight..."
"We don't know... he's like a ghost."
Aizawa placed his hands on the table and rested his chin. He looked like he was thinking about something.
"That Silver Warrior is smart. He could even beat down even the best lawyer that day. Such a person has the ability to hide his true image. So what about the witness?"
The girl was flipping through some of her files...
"I don't know why, but he become the driver of a major shareholder in the secretive Galaxy Gems. We won't be able to touch him for a while."
Aizawa nodded. The Galaxy Gems is also famous in the underworld, especially in the gem smuggling business. But after a new shareholder appeared, the conglomerate grew rapidly. The new shareholder was very powerful and oppressed the other shareholders. No one knows how many secret mines she has.
cThey might not be as powerful as the Yamaguchi, but they didn't dare to mess around while the country was watching. Even the main family in Japan can't save them if they made such a mess.
Suddenly there was a light in the room. Both the assistant girl and Aizawa's eyes widened, and the assistant moved first. When she hit the ground, the concrete on the floor rises and becomes a wall. But bullet had already reached them. The bullet pierced her stone wall and hit Aizawa's shoulder. If the stone wall didn't block the view, Aizawa would probably be dead.
"Aizawa-sama. Take your place quickly. There's a sniper."
...
On the other side, there was a middle-aged man crouching on the sunny rooftop holding a sniper rifle. He closed one eye and looked at the mechanical eye and lens that glowed with blue light.
"Dammit, Earth Type Mutant?... You can still move in the last half second."
He is a cyborg called Elohim. The place he was on was over three thousand meters away from Aizawa, and even the best snipers couldn't do this. On the plains, there was a Canadian sniper who shot at a target from three hundred and five hundred meters, but Elohim was aiming at an office room on a two hundred meter high building from the roof of a building more than four hundred meters high. As the city says, noise, The view is not as good as expected due to the reflections. Even this can still be thrown over the shoulder without hitting the head.
"Looks like I'll have to kill him myself tonight."
