Playing with other Supernaturals

Chapter 682 Impression

Sitting at the head of the table, Kisuke asked everyone, “Well then, everyone, what do you think of this place?”

Tenestra immediately raised her hand and said, “It’s ridiculous!”

Fenia hurriedly grabbed her arm and gestured to her, “Shh! Watch what you’re saying!”

However, Kisuke just chuckled at her response and added, “It’s fine. I want everyone’s honest opinion. That way, I’ll have a more accurate view of this place. Please go on.”

Chris Flamesworth then looked out the ‘window’ and said, “I clearly remember that there wasn’t any window on this thing when we arrived, yet here we are, seeing what’s outside.”

“Not just that. The walls, floors, ceilings, and doors, everything is made out of Adamantium and Orichalcum. Just the sheer amount is ridiculous and I still can’t wrap my mind around how you’ve gathered everything that you used to build this.”, added Urdor.

Yeena also gathered her courage and revealed her opinion, “Not to mention the strange but wondrous mechanism that covered this place. Even in Altena where Magic technology advances every day, such things are impossible.”

“And finally, those Magic Circles that were able to instantly move us to this floor. In my opinion, those are the most ridiculous things and I also have a feeling that you want us to do something regarding that.”, was the final opinion from Carys.

From their perspective, since they didn’t know the full capabilities of this building, the mechanisms that were used were certainly impressive but it was something achievable by combining Magic items made by those with Mystery Development Ability.

What was really astonishing was the instant movement Magic. If it was possible to do the same thing outside of this building, then not just the Dungeon exploration, but also instant long-distance travel would be possible, allowing free trade from very far territories which would, in turn, advance civilization as a whole.

Kisuke smiled and nodded, “Indeed. As you can see, we’re just three people and we won’t be within the Dungeon for most of the time. Although this ‘inn’ can manage on its own since I made it that way, it’ll be hard to regulate people who want to transfer from the 9th floor to this floor and vice-versa.”

Carys, Yeena, Chris and Tenestra all stood up in shock with Tenestra saying, “You were able to do that instant movement Magic outside of this building!? And from the 9th floor to this floor!?”

Kisuke also stood up and went towards the exit, “Shall we check it out?”

Everyone looked at each other before nodding with serious expressions. If what he said was true, then a big change in Dungeon exploration was about to come. As the representatives of the Astarte, Patecatl and Hadur Familias, they started thinking about how they’d be able to help to manage this portal.

Since Chris and Urdor are from Agricultural and Blacksmithing Familia respectively, they knew that they could only lend assistance to the Astarte Familia, an Exploration Familia, so they instead started thinking that way instead of trying to contest with them.

Leaving the building, everyone else from the Expedition team saw them. While Carys asked those from the Astarte Familia to not follow them, Chris and Urdor asked one person from their respective Familias to follow them.

After 10 minutes of walking, they reached a large clearing about 70 meters wide. In the middle was a platform made out of Adamantium and on it was a 30-meter wide extremely complex Magic Circle surrounded by 7 pillars engraved with complex circuits which were connected to the Magic Circle. Each of the pillars was 3 meters tall and 12 inches wide with a small cavity in the center.

Kisuke went straight up to the podium while others only silently followed him. Meanwhile, Kuroka went towards the pillars and inserted Magic Stones in each cavity before following the group towards the center of the Magic Circle.

Everyone else aside from the two were busy observing the Magic Circle, in particular, Tenestra who started taking notes about it when Kisuke suddenly said, “Well then everyone, brace yourselves.”

With a tap of his cane, the Magic Circle lit up and covered them with light. A few seconds later, they found themselves in an untouched but familiar corner of a safety point which was on the 9th floor.

“T-this is… So it’s really possible!” Carys immediately faced Kisuke and directly asked him, “Do you want us to guard these two points?”

“Not just that. I’d like to leave the management of these Teleportation Circles to your Familia.”

Not just Carys, even Chris and Urdor were shocked that Kisuke was giving such an opportunity to the Astarte Familia, “B-but what if we mismanage it and bar others from entering?”

However, Kisuke just shrugged his shoulders and said, “I don’t care. I only want a steady stream of customers to my inn.”, and with a shit-eating grin, Kisuke added, “If you want to mess with the Aruna Familia, I won’t say a thing~.”

The representatives of the three Familias knew that from here on out, it was going to be extremely noisy. Even if the Astarte Familia chose to be as fair as possible, dissatisfaction and greed would still consume a lot of people.

Carys looked down and contemplated. Although they were probably going to make a lot of allies, among them would be enemies hidden in the dark. However, this would also open a lot of opportunities for them.

She then looked back up to Kisuke and asked, “How do we use these Teleportation Circles?”

Kisuke happily explained how to operate and under what conditions the Teleportations Circles would function. Finally, he took out a black card and gave it to Carys, “This card will allow you to remotely enable or disable the circles and you can also use this to expel anyone within the vicinity of the circles. Bring it up to your forehead and you’ll understand how to use it.”

Carys did as Kisuke instructed and information instantly flowed towards her consciousness. She was surprised but didn’t show it on her face, ‘Although this card could indeed give me control over the circles, it’s only possible when I’m not more than 30 meters away from the platform. The key that could give me full control anywhere I am is the pill that is inside the hidden compartment located at the side of the platform. Once I’ve eaten that, it’ll give me a higher authority over this card.’

Carys brought the card to her forehead once again but the instruction omitted the information regarding the pill. She smiled and thought, ‘Thanks to this, it would be a lot easier to give this black card up in case we are threatened with something or it is stolen.’

She looked up to Kisuke once again and said, “Thank you very much. I’ll take care of it.”

Not waiting for his reply, Carys immediately faced Dulran and Fenia, “Dulran, immediately relay all that has transpired here to Lady Astarte and stay by her side at all times wherever she goes. Never agree to leave her side even if she has to meet other Deities.”

The Dark Elf nodded and hurriedly left without saying any word.

“Fenia, go back and take half of our remaining forces to set a camp around here. I’ll leave you to guard this place for the meantime.”

“Understood.”, Fenia nodded and also left.

Meanwhile, Chris and Urdor also issued similar commands to the person they brought along and also immediately left with grave expressions.

“Now that this is out of the way, let’s return.”, Kisuke reactivated the Teleportation Circle and returned to the 48th floor.
