Playing With Other Supernaturals

Chapter 719 Filvis Challia

At dinner time, everyone sat around the table full of delicious food, including Filvis. Although she was still flinching at the noises and was at a general loss of what to do. In hindsight, it was actually pretty easy to calm her down. As someone who had been persecuted by others all the time, Filvis was very sensitive about how others looked at her.

With everyone gazing at her as if she's a genuine and real person, she wondered how these people could act like this, especially now that she had such inhumane features that could surely scare any normal person. Thanks to that, however, Filvis got a sense of safety, albeit, only slightly.

Remaining quiet while staying on the seat given to her and watching everyone's attitude, Filvis shook when Medusa suddenly placed a plate in front of her, "It's an informal setting so just take whatever you fancy."

Filvis looked up to her casual expression and hesitantly nodded.

Soon the table descended into chaos with Aika grabbing the majority of the meat for herself. Ever since learning how to maintain her figure using Magic, she didn't care what she eats anymore. And due to her actions, others also started imitating her, mainly Claire, Tanis, and Ophis as the 'candy' that Kisuke gave the former two earlier was still in effect.

The noisy and rambunctious dinner should have been unbearable for someone like Filvis, however, this atmosphere of a casual and uncaring attitude actually gave her more of a sense of comfort. A lot better than an awkward silence would. It's as if she was actually accepted. But before that train of thought further developed itself, Filvis sighed and shook her head in an attempt to brush off these 'dangerous' thoughts.

"What's wrong? You don't like the food? Do you have something specific you want?" Hestia suddenly asked her when she saw that Filvis hadn't touched her utensils yet.

"N-no. That's not it, Lady Hestia..."

"Then you should start eating before these gluttonous girls wipe everything off the table. I know you're hungry and if you want to do something, you should have at least the energy to move around."

"B-but..."

Nevertheless, Hestia just waved her hand at Filvis and started putting some food on her plate herself, "I know what you're thinking and your concerns, but save it for later. I can, however, reassure you that my children are different from the rest and won't judge you on how you look."

While Filvis was still unwilling to believe her words, she swallowed back her words, "...Thank you very much."

Filvis gratefully accepted the meal but as she took a bite from it, she felt her unnaturally long canines and reminded her of her current existence, 'What's going to happen to me now?'

'Looks like Tanis's presence still couldn't reassure her,' Sona thought. She doesn't know exactly what Kisuke's reason was on why he turned Filvis into a Xenos, but the latter already told her that he already got what he wanted from her. Coincidence or not, Filvis's existence was actually a great boon, not for them, but Tanis, 'If she can make a small opening for the path to the coexistence of Xenos and the people of the Lower World, it'd be really great for Tanis-chan.'

Dinner ended and the first ones to leave were Claire, Ophis, and Tanis because they still had to finish their homework. They were then followed by Kisuke who planned another all-nighter.

The rest then moved to the living room where Artemis and Irina prepared tea for everyone.

With Filvis in the middle, everyone was staring at her with great interest, putting her in great discomfort. Nevertheless, Filvis gathered her courage and asked, "Uhmm... What's going to happen to me now?"

"You're a lot meeker than you originally are." commented Aika. Since they would commonly come across the Loki Familia investigating the Evilus' movements, they'd also come across Filvis with either Dionysus or Lefiya. And from their memories, she had a stronger and more stoic attitude, very different from the demeanor she's displaying now.

However, after recalling her history and thinking about it, Filvis's stance and attitude were very understandable. With nothing to depend on and reincarnating as something that others would instantly kill when they come across her, she couldn't really display a strong front.

Seeing Filvis making a difficult expression, Sona just waved her hand and said, "Forget about it. If you're asking what's going to happen, aside from Kisuke having something in mind, we don't really know what will happen to you, nor do we have any idea where you'll end up in the future. One thing I'm quite sure of, though. You'll be deciding on the path you want to take on your own, since Kisuke will let you off."

Of course, Kisuke already told the girls his intention of sending Filvis to the Loki Familia tomorrow but asked them not to reveal it since she might run away.

Filvis couldn't help but scrunch up her brows slightly, "Then what am I doing here? Kisuke Urahara could have left me alone in the Dungeon if he's just going to let me go. Does he plan to do an experiment with me? How did he find me in the first place?"

"Don't worry about it. He'll bring you somewhere and he'll be done with you. It's your choice what to do after that next. And as for how he found you, we don't really know. Though we've already learned that it'll just be tiring asking him everything, and as for whatever he's trying to do? As it is most of the time, it's actually just for 'fun'." Sona sighed.

"Enough of that~!" Irina suddenly interjected, "We're not here to talk about Kisuke's plans, but Filvis-san herself!"

"M-me?"

"Yep~! Aren't you curious about what you can do now?"

But in front of the excited Irina, Filvis firmly shook her head, "N-no."

"Eh?"

Filvis gritted her teeth and explained further, "I thought I'd already escaped that hell, but only to be sent back right into it." She then recalled Kisuke's last words to her before she completely turned into ashes and suspected that he has something to do with her current state right now. Her complicated feeling then turned into silent fury, '...Why...?'

"I can't say that Kisuke-kun has nothing to do with your current situation, however, please remember all the words he said at that time." Hestia inserted. Sona and Koneko already told her in detail about what happened in Knossos and Dionysus' last moments last night. Including the parting words that Kisuke gave her.

'Well, I guess you're also aware that no matter how you answer, that sick Deity won't be leaving you alone. However, you two are both wrong about something. And even if you wanted to, you won't be together like he said.'

Those were his exact words and Filvis became incredibly confused when she recalled that.

Raising her hand, Serafall gathered everyone's attention, "Ah, about that, I asked him about it and explained it to me why he did that~!"
