Playing With Other Supernaturals

Chapter 726 Lysa part 1

"Just yesterday, when she saw me on the streets, she instantly ran away. There's no way that girl would want to come with me.", explained Kisuke.

"She did that?", asked Loki, "If she's going to be terrified of someone, it would be Sera-chan."

Kisuke was surprised that Serafall's name had suddenly come up and Loki noticed that and continued on, "Before the whole Knossos subjugation started, Ais-chan felt that her strength was not enough to match the red-haired Creature. In an attempt to bridge that gap, she decided to find someone to help her get stronger. The strongest person that she knew, aside from you, was Sera-chan. Though I was really surprised when she agreed."

'She was probably bored with too much free time.', thought Kisuke.

"Serafall-san came to the manor after Ais-san asked her. After that, it was just a one-sided beatdown. It was so bad that I had to stay by Ais-san's side at all times so that she could continue fighting. But...", Line hesitated before continuing, "But what scared her the most... No... What scared all of us, was her intent to kill. It was so clear that it was actually suffocating. We didn't expect any of that from the usually cheerful person."

"What Wallenstein-san needed the most was not the strength to match her opponent, but the intent to kill for her to actually use her full power against the Creature that looks like a Human. Sera-chan understood that and drowned her with killing intent so that she could develop her own.", clarified Kisuke, 'Though it seems to have backfired, 'cause that same killing intent ended up consuming her.'

It was then that Loki suddenly asked, "I was there, too, for most of the time and for her to manifest such killing intent... Just how many people has she killed?"

Line immediately shut her mouth and waited nervously. She didn't understand why Loki would suddenly ask such a question.

Kisuke didn't mind her question and answered truthfully, "She's participated in and led armies to wars spanning decades. After it had all ended, she had to exercise her authority to stabilize everything. If she couldn't develop a killing intent like that, she would have never led one of the largest armies, nor would she have survived to sit in one of the highest positions in her country."

Loki nodded in understanding, "I see... Someone who has already experienced the horrors of war from top to bottom, huh? If it's like that, then it's understandable. The fact that she can act so cheerfully like that is amazing, too."

Seeing the situation had ended well, Line sighed in relief too. However, she was curious about one thing and asked, "Wars spanning several decades, isn't it? Just how old is Serafall-san?"

Kisuke thought for a moment before answering, "I'm not too sure either and she'll surely try to kill me if I attempt to investigate it. But she's way older than Riveria-san, that's for sure."

"What!? Isn't she a Human!?"

Kisuke just smiled at her and replied, "Line-chan, people of her strength have a life expectancy beyond common sense. Once you've reached a certain stage of Magic or Ki, you'll also gain a body strong enough to contend with them. At that point, you'll be beyond healthy and diseases and failures of the body would be the least of your concern."

Before Line could say anything back, the other members of the Loki Familia finally arrived with Finn leading the group, "Loki, we're here. Kisuke Urahara, welcome to the Twilight Manor. We're sorry for making you wait."

"Don't worry about it. Loki-sama and Line-chan were here with me and I'm the one who came unannounced. I apologize for that."

As Line stood up, Finn, Riveria and Gareth all sat down surrounding Loki while the rest just gathered around them. But instead of them, the first one Kisuke noticed was Ais who was hiding behind Tiona with a worried look on her face, 'She's really weak to being scolded, huh. Must be the first time she came across someone like me. I guess even Riveria-san could completely take the role of a parent for her.'

"Let's drop the formalities. That would only waste both of our time, even if we have lots of it." Finn started.

Kisuke nodded at him, "That's what I wanted. You must have already heard it, but I want the Loki Familia to take in a Xenos." Kisuke started untying the rope on the sack, "More specifically, I want Viridis-san to take care of her."

Lefiya was shocked that her name actually came up and pointed at herself nervously, "M-me?"

However, before Kisuke could answer or reveal who's in the sack, his bulging belly started squirming around before the small White Dragon peek its head outside, surprising everyone and putting them on high alert.

The Dragon did a quick scan before it excitedly leapt out of Kisuke's clothes and flew towards Ais in the back, [Aria!]

But contrary to the joyful Dragon, Ais was having a murderous look. She couldn't even hear the Dragon's 'voice', which further shocked the rest as she was already blinded with hate and rage. Without any warning, she swung her fist using all of her strength in hopes to instantly kill the Dragon.

Riveria wanted to stop her because she had a feeling that she was making a very grave mistake but it was already too late for her to interfere, "Ais!" She could only hope for Kisuke to save the Dragon.

The little Dragon finally noticed that something was not right with 'Aria' and felt extreme danger from her. However, it was already too late to return to safety and it could only watch the fist descend to it with fear.

"Danku (Splitting Void).", muttered Kisuke.

A small transparent rectangular barrier appeared in front of the Dragon and stopped Ais's fist.

Ais woke up from her stupor when she felt the pain in her fist, but before she could take it back, a small lump of Magic Power suddenly struck her forehead, sending her head back and making her kneeling in pain, "Ow!"

But thanks to that pain, she finally realized what just happened and got scared that she attempted to kill the monster that came from Kisuke, 'It's obvious that he's keeping it... What did I do?'

She immediately looked up to apologize but her words were stuck in her throat when she saw the small White Dragon floating in front of her. Not because of its form, but it's strange eyes full of emotion and currently radiating with sadness. For the first time, she was feeling guilty about trying to attack a monster and she was incredibly confused by it.

[...Aria...]

"W-what?" She finally heard its 'voice'.

But the Dragon suddenly turned and flew back to Kisuke's arms, [Aria!!!]

It was as if it was a wronged child that was seeking comfort.

Hugging it with his right arm and patting its head with her left hand, Kisuke started consoling the poor little Dragon, "Yosh, yosh. Don't cry. Uncle Kisuke is here. I already flicked the head of that bad girl so don't cry. Here, you like sweets, right?"

This surreal scene further made everyone speechless.
