Playing With Other Supernaturals

Chapter 690 Concerns

Instead of the discussion, Kisuke's attention was on Ais who was making a very complicated expression, "Haah... If nothing changes, it's going to be complicated in the future."

"What do you mean?", asked Yoruichi.

Kisuke sighed, "I'm talking about the Sword Princess. At this rate, if nothing is done, I might have to kill her."

Knowing a bit of Ais' mysteriousness, Yoruichi asked, "Couldn't you just do what you did with Artemis?"

"Artemis-sama's situation was entirely different from her. Although the Antares managed to gain control of Artemis-sama, the core of her soul is still up in Heaven. That's the reason why I could easily sever their connection. In Wallenstein-san's case, her soul was directly melded with the Black Dragon and it's only because of Aria-san that she's still in control of herself."

"I could probably separate them safely, but it would take a substantial amount of time and I don't have that. I'd rather pour my resources into the things that could surely help us. All I could offer her is a challenging chance, but as she is right now, she'll just be swallowed by the Black Dragon."

"Why do you have to do it, nyaa?", asked Kuroka. If it was such a pain in the ass, Kisuke could just ignore this problem that might be solved on its own.

"It's because I don't want Loki to be our enemy. She's good at scheming, yes, but what's really amazing about her is her ability to figure out other's intentions. If she goes against us, it would be extremely complicated. But also thanks to her ability, she's one of the few Deities that we could easily convince to side with us at the right time."

"So rather than that poor Ais herself, you're more concerned on how Loki would think, nyaa?"

"Well, that's not really all. I also promised Aria-san so there's that. Anyway, are there any files that show the three who'd just left?", Kisuke suddenly changed the topic.

"There is, nyaa. I'll play it one by one."

The first video file was Irina saving a War Shadow and evading Bete using a flashbang. The next one was Akeno saving a Needle Rabbit and teleporting away after sending a wave of lightning towards Tione.

On Koneko's side, it became complicated when the Xenos she wanted to save became embroiled with the Freya Familia who were guarding the walls. The Siren Xenos, Ray was protecting the Lygerfang against Allen Fromel but due to the difference in Level and experience, Ray, who was as strong as a Level 5 Adventurer couldn't even fight back.

When Allen was about to land a decisive blow, Koneko didn't hesitate to partially unlock her Sage Mode and revealed her Sacred Gear. Using the momentum she got from the thrusters behind her, Koneko got in between Ray and Allen before punching away the latter's spear.

"You!? White Flames!", Allen immediately recognized the Adventurer known as 'White Flames of Dawn'. But instead of questioning why she was protecting the monsters, Allen wanted to know how a Level 3 like her was able to fend off his attack.

Koneko, however, didn't say anything and used the small opportunity that was created and followed up with a kick using the same momentum.

Allen saw her foot from the corner of his eyes and immediately used his arm to block it. However, he severely underestimated the power behind her kick and was sent flying.

Using this chance Koneko grabbed Ray and the Lygerfang to escape. But before she could do anything else, she felt some threat behind her and hurriedly turned around to see three flying knives.

Koneko was about to block using her flames but stopped when she felt another's presence. The next instant, an extremely cold breeze blew and created several icicles that blocked the throwing knives.

Allen turned to the source of the cold breeze and showed his fangs, "Even you, Nine Hell... What the hell's wrong with you people!?"

Stepping out from the shadows of the building, Riveria first turned to Koneko and looked at the monsters behind her for a few seconds before turning to Allen and saying, "Go. I'll take care of this."

Koneko furrowed her brows from confusion but still took the chance that Riveria gave her and grabbed the Xenos once again before using Flash Step to leave the area.

Allen dropped down from the wall and faced Riveria, "I never thought that one of the top dogs of the Loki Familia would be helping monsters. If others were to know of this, they'll surely be disappointed."

But Riveria just smirked and replied, "Really? I only saw a veteran Adventurer bullying an acquaintance. I never saw any monsters."

"So that's how it is. Regardless, for messing with my business, I would have to give you a few cuts.", said Allen and readied his spear and knives. He already gave up on chasing the monsters since someone who was at the same level as him appeared to interfere. He could only hope that others who were also guarding the walls would find those monsters.

The playback ended there because Serafall wasn't interested in them anymore.

The next file was a few days later after the disturbance with members of the Loki Familia and Loki herself visiting Hearth Manor.

The one who welcomed them was, of course, Medusa, "Good day to everyone. We were expecting you."

Except for the Riveria and Loki, this was the first time for others to meet her outside of the Dungeon and Tiona couldn't help but ask when she looked at her gem-like eyes, "Y-you won't turn us into stone, right?"

Medusa chuckled and replied, "Of course not. I wouldn't do that to our important guests."

The younger members were still nervous around her but Finn stepped forwards and said, "I'd like to thank you first for your assistance when the monsters wanted to rush to the surface. With your presence, it became a lot easier to defend the tower."

"It's my duty to protect the place my master left. Anyways, please follow me inside. Hestia-sama and Artemis-sama were already expecting you."

"What about the special 'guests'?", asked Loki.

"It'll depend on them if you can meet them. On that note, please don't pull out your weapons inside or we'll have no choice but to retaliate."

Loki nodded and turned her head to Ais, "Don't worry. They already promised they won't be hurting anyone inside."

Seeing her stare, Ais noticeably gulped and became nervous. Aside from that, an extremely complicated feeling was brewing inside her. But even if the belief that she held dearly through all her life was to be threatened, she wanted to go. Ais wanted to know how 'he' and the people around him viewed this.
