Chapter 106: (Not So) Grand Escape
Soldiers dressed as civilians patrolled the hotel at night, hanging around the city streets, pretending to be locals wasting time in the middle of the night.
A group stood around a corner, men and women vaping from electric cigars. Many were in a nearby diner, relaxing at tables, drinking cool alcohol or beverages native to Turkmenistan. Others wandered, walking around the alleys and streets, vigilant of the supernatural in their patrols.
Some were inside buildings, skyscrapers, in rented rooms, looking out through their telescopes and binoculars for supernatural beings lingering in the air.
"Their security is extremely tight." Tsubasa commented.
They were high up in the skies, surrounded by protective spells that made them invisible, wings spread from their spines under the cool sunless air and starry, pale moonlit night.

"You want to hear about my time in the Great War?" Baraqiel asked.
