TAT!
Tat, tat, tat!
The sound of a pebble hitting the ground and rolling about echoed through the hall connected to the kitchen area.
The two prisoners on standby paused for a moment and wondered if they should even consider checking on something so be little to them.
For they had a more important job aside from guarding the hallway.
"Man let's just leave it be... besides you know we gotta..."
The teenage boy with dirty skin brown shirt ruffled hair brown eyes yellow teeth and a very ragged uniform said while flicking his eyes twice towards the kitchen.
Meaning that something very important could be happening there.
The other boy sighed in realization as he said,
"Yah, I guess you-"
Tat, tat, tat, tat!
Pow!
"OWWWW!"
The other boys shouted in pain as the pebble had bounced off the walls in a consecutive motion as it hit his big toe hard.
"Ughhhh, the f*** was that?!"
"I-I dunno... something's not right here, let me go check."
The other boys said as he dashed into other hallway turning his up, left and right looking for the any trace of the pebbles' origins.
He then dashed to the left, checked and found nothing. And then to the right, dashed and found nothing.
He made on last check but...
"Cardinal technique: Scavenger!"
His eyes then turned to like those of a python as tiny black scales were seen to appear just below his eyes.
He then looked once again in the same pattern from before.
"AHA! I knew there was a rat!"
The boys said while smirking proudly.
We then see that the boy saw faint but clear as day heat radiation pattern that looked it belonged to that of a boy.
The radiation's pattern was then seen moving in a certain direction and so without a word the boy dashed at an even faster speed.
"Dammit Milo, you could've taken me with ya."
The other boy said while sitting on the ground but, his once injured toe looked as normal as it was before.
This was due to his abilities as cardinal warrior who could use a cardinae as the books suggests about these individuals.
Now cardinal techniques what are they?
Well, cardinal techniques are like the typical special attacks or powers a cardinal warrior can deploy.
Like for instance a cardinal warrior who can use the water cardinal attribute and then command a cardinal technique as a special move or ability.
What makes a cardinal technique and a cardinal point different?
Well, it's for the fact that they have about three clear differences from each other.
One being that cardinal techniques are special moves or abilities of a cardinal warrior that they can call out for in their heads or orally while cardinal points are the distinct definition of a cardinal warrior that can only be called out orally since a cardinal point belongs to the cardinae.
Now when we say a cardinal point us a distinct definition of a cardinal warrior, we mean that a special attack that belongs to the cardinae of a cardinal warrior.
It's said that cardinal points can only be achieved when one has synchronized with their cardinae up to at least 10%.
And it's also said from the experience of the cardinal warriors who have managed to reach that stage of synchronization has said that when they reached 10%, they suddenly died?
Yes, they died.
It's also said when one reaches 10% synchronization they can easily climb to the elite or even pinnacle of primal level.
Second being that a cardinal technique can a heavy damage type attack or fatal blow while a cardinal point can either be fatal or an omni-fatal blow.
An omni-fatal blow is the sure hit effect of a cardinal warrior's cardinal point to cause death to only the physical body of the enemy but also destroy their soul completely.
Cardinal warriors who possess omni-fatal blows are people who are said to be in DemiGod and Constus-flux levels.
Finally, being that cardinal techniques are singular to their creatures while cardinal points can be passed down through entire generations.
Cardinal techniques are as such because their created through both cardinal warrior and their cardinae meaning that if another cardinal warrior were to try to learn or mimic their technique it could lead to their cardinae being destroyed.
The reason for this is that a cardinal technique can kinda act like a trade mark or copy right of the owner cardinal warrior and his cardinae.
The cardinal technique is like a special code created by both cardinal warrior and his/her cardinae that has its own built in virus.
So this can kinda refer to the proverb;
"One man's meat is another man's poison."
