Playing with other Supernaturals

Chapter 732 Uncertain Future

The Loki Familia members kept asking Kisuke questions regarding the Dragon that’s stronger than the previous two but he just kept feigning ignorance. Curiously enough, only Loki herself kept quiet through the noise they made.

“Enough of that and let’s move on to the next thing.” Kisuke pushed them away and grabbed the sack that had already stopped moving the moment the other Loki Familia members arrived. Although it moved a bit while listening to Kisuke’s stories.

“Hey… You haven’t killed yourself, right?” Kisuke suddenly asked. Although he already knew the answer, he wanted to tease her a bit and it’s also a way to divert the other’s attention.

Jumping on his words, Loki also joined in, “It’s too strange that you wanted us to take care of a Xenos since until recently, we didn’t see them favorably. On top of that, you’re specifically asking Lefiya to take care of… Wait, is it a man or a woman?”

Kisuke didn’t answer her and instead directly pulled down the sack after opening it, revealing the Xenos inside it. However, they couldn’t tell what kind of Xenos she was because she was covering herself with her wings. They couldn’t even see her face since she’s covering it with her hands.

But even then, Lefiya’s heart started palpitating for some unknown reason when she looked at her, “…S-she… What is she?” She asked meekly.

But Kisuke didn’t answer her question and looked strangely at Filvis, “…Did you always have this kind of character?”

With a purposely hoarse voice, Filvis retorted, “…Shut up!”

However, she absolutely underestimated Lefiya’s power to recognize her as the latter immediately went in front of her to everyone’s surprise, “Lefiya? What’s wrong?” Riveria asked when she saw her about to bawl her eyes out.

But Lefiya couldn’t hear her question as she could only focus on the person in front of her, “…Filvis…san?”

Everyone shuddered when Lefiya suddenly uttered the name of a dead person and that was also the same for Filvis herself, as she didn’t know how she was able to recognize her, “Y-you got the wrong person.” She replied with an intentionally deep but obviously fake voice. Filvis was already panicking internally.

Kisuke then smiled and stood up, “Well then. It looks like I don’t have anything to worry about, so I’ll take my leave. I still have some things to do.” He left directly after saying that despite the reactions around him.

Loki immediately followed him on the way out, “Wait… Kisuke.”

Finn and Riveria were about to follow her but she gestured for them to stay behind and deal with the situation right now.

Once they were outside with no ears to listen to them, Loki finally spoke up, “You wouldn’t mind me asking a few questions myself, would you?” Since she has a feeling that he specifically came for her instead of her children, she’s sure that Kisuke would clarify a few more things for her. If not, he wouldn’t have mentioned his Dragon friends.

And although no one else made a connection to him, thanks to the passive intervention made by the Gods Divinities to make the children of the Lower World not think about it, she was bothered about the Dragon that flew over Orario some time ago and Kisuke’s involvement with it.

“Ask away. If I can say it, I will.” Kisuke replied as he continued walking.

But before getting into that topic, Loki asked first, “Was that the real Filvis Challia?”

Kisuke nodded, “She is. No doubt about it.”

Loki creased her brows, “How did you do it?”

But Kisuke just shrugged his shoulders while replying, “I may have a hand in it, but it isn’t my handiwork. Since she’s a Xenos now, you could say that it’s the Dungeon’s will. Why? I don’t know.”

Kisuke’s answer only opened up more questions in Loki’s mind. Even among the Deities, the existence of the Dungeon is veiled in mystery that they haven’t had a clue how to uncover. For starters, the Dungeon actually became the foundation in the creation of the Lower World and it only started spawning monsters when its inhabitants started thriving.

If there’s someone who knows what the Dungeon’s true form is, it’s only their ‘Father’.

Shaking her head, Loki changed the subject and asked the question that has been bothering her since earlier, “Then let me ask another one. How are you related to the Dragon that flew over Orario last time?”

Kisuke smiled, “We’re not friends, but we’re acquaintances.”

Although Loki was already expecting this answer, her head still ached immensely and directly asked, “I have no idea why, but are you trying to oppose ‘him’?”

Kisuke’s expression didn’t change and he looked at Loki, “Oppose him? That’s a very strong word, however, the fact is, he wanted me to do something for him.”

“…What?”

“I have just said it. I’m actually working for him through a contract.”

Loki’s slitted eyes opened widely as she looked deeply into his eyes, trying to figure out what his real intentions were.

Kisuke also stared at her eyes for a few moments before turning around and continuing his footsteps. While he left with a smile on his face, Loki was making a very serious expression, and many things simultaneously ran through her mind. Once Kisuke left her sight, her eyes glinted with the same color as her hair for a split second before turning back and returning to her children who were making a ruckus inside, ‘Just where do you stand, Kisuke Urahara?’

However, before she could enter through the doors of her manor, a piece of paper flew in front of her, making her catch it without thinking. On it was a written note and Kisuke’s stamp, [Be careful of Freya-sama.]

Loki looked back before turning the piece of paper into many more and scattering it everywhere. She took his warning to her heart as she had a feeling that he didn’t have any bad intentions despite making his position vaguely on ‘Father’s’ side.

If it wasn’t clear as before, now Loki truly couldn’t treat him like any of the other children and could only see him as someone in the leagues of the Gods. Not because of the strength he possessed, but because of the sheer headache that he could cause her.

=================================================

AN (January 27, 2022): Before everyone eats me alive, I’d like to apologize. As you’ve thought, I forgot to update the NovelFull part last time.

And when did I figure that out? Yep. Just now.

I was confused why certain chapters are still on my draft. It turned out that I didn’t publish them.
