Playing with other Supernaturals

Chapter 83 Power Collector

Kisuke ignored Aika’s curses towards him and inspected how Koneko is fairing, “Koneko-chan, how are you doing?”

Koneko heard him but didn’t answer him as she’s concentrating very hard on melding her inner Ki with the outer Ki she gathered. But every time a substantial amount of Ki have fused, she would lose control of it and the outer Ki would escape outside.

Kisuke didn’t mind her not responding and went to the center of the training ground where three arrays were arranged thirty meters apart from each other.

Each of these arrays is elevated one meter from the ground using a cleanly cut rock. The inscriptions on the rock are faintly glowing with various colors. Floating on top of each rock are rotating cubes in the size of basketball giving off different colors of light.

These cubes are the ones Kisuke has been working on these past few days. They are purified Ki, Mana, and Reiryoku which the array below them filters and gathers. This purified energy forms can be useful for a lot of things he is planning to do in the future. It can also be fused with the food so he can get a similar effect when Kirio Hikifune cooks her Reiatsu rich food that can help trainees develop further, but without using any of Kisuke’s energy reserves.

It can be said that he created something ridiculous as he just essentially created an unlimited power generator.

“It can only gather so much and the rest would start to disperse back to the atmosphere. I also have to do something with the waste it creates. Looks like my initial estimate of only 10 percent of each energy type can be injected into the body without much repercussions. The temporary strengthening effect should be enormous but strains the body. If I want something permanent without side effects, then I have to take it slowly for the body to adapt. With this, the foundation training of both Koneko and Aika should speed up considerably and it can also help Yoruichi train the next level of her Shunko.”

Kisuke muttered under his breath while he plans his future schedule. ‘I have to halt my study on Sacred Gears for a while due to the lack of data. I didn’t think that even the books that should contain information that is not known to the public which I won from the bet wouldn’t even contain a bit of information on how these Sacred Gears works. I have to wait for Aika to mature or some Sacred Gear user that would want to kill me.’

After contemplating for a bit more and inspecting the array one last time, Kisuke turned around to go back. He saw that Aika is still being chased around by Yoruichi’s lightning and swearing which can get her banned in any T.V. stations. Koneko is also still sitting crossed legs while meditating with furrowed brows.

He waited for a good timing before shouting at them, “Dinner time!”

“F*ck! Finally!” With a jump, Aika evaded Yoruichi’s last big attack. Koneko opened her eyes and silently stood up with a dejected expression.

Kisuke ignored Aika’s brass actions and just patted Koneko’s head to cheer her up a bit.

“Hey… What’s up with this difference in treatment?” Aika asks displeased as she put her clothes back on.

“Sorry. I just have this really strong urge to ignore you.” Kisuke blankly answered her.

“What does that mean!!? It’s you who made me like this! Take responsibility and take me too while you’re at it!” Aika immediately protested.

“Yoruichi is the one who turned you like that. Go ask her to make you her concubine or something.” Kisuke didn’t wait for Aika’s comeback and directly faced Yoruichi with furrowed brows, “Isn’t her change a bit too much?”

Aika was about to say something, but when she heard Kisuke’s words, she stops herself to listen as she feels like it’s something important. Aika herself noticed the fast change in her disposition and wanted to know more about it.

“That’s what I think too. There’s probably something happening that we can’t see. And we know what’s to blame.” Yoruichi touched her chin and said.

“The giant *ss dragon from before?” Aika muttered.

“Right. It’s the biggest possibility, but since we don’t know what exactly did it do to you we can’t just point that way without any hard evidence. I already examined you before, but aside from the unique aura that the red dragon left on you, I didn’t see anything else.” Kisuke also rubbed his chin in contemplation.

“What should I do?” Aika asks. After thinking about it more, she’s afraid that she’ll become someone who isn’t herself.

Kisuke grinned at her and asks, “What do you think of this change?”

Aika felt a bit annoyed at his grin, but thought to herself, ‘What do I think of this change?’ She reminisces all her experiences since the day the supernatural world opened to her. Aika noticed that she started to behave differently when she saw the ring that Kisuke gifted to Yoruichi. After thinking for some more, ‘Is it really ‘different’? No. I would have acted like that, but only in my fantasies. I didn’t change and just became more ‘open’.’ Aika opened her eyes wide in realization and saw that Kisuke is still grinning at her.

She returned a grin and said, “I don’t hate it.”

“Hahaha~. Is that so? But let me tell you this just in case you started to doubt yourself again. It completely impossible for someone else to change another person’s personality or psyche. At least that’s what I know from all of my experiences.” Kisuke patted Aika’s shoulder as he reassures her, “And if it’s my honest opinion, I like this aggressive you more than the plain old pervert you.”

Aika’s eyes twinkled at his words, “Really!? Then marry me?”

Kisuke, without hesitation, answered her with the biggest smile she had ever seen, “Hell nah~.”

“Tch!”

Yoruichi suddenly grabbed and hugged her from behind resting her head on Kisuke’s shoulder, “Stop flirting with my hubby and let’s go. The food might get cold.”

“Just a bit more?”

“No.”
