Playing with other Supernaturals

Chapter 931 OP Elf

While bringing various food from England, Kuroka came back to where Medusa, Riveria, and Aika are, “Heya~ How are you all doing, nyaa~?”

Instead of just a singular tent, there was now a log cabin big enough to house a large family in the middle of the clearing. Thanks to Medusa learning the Kisuke-way, she now also knew how to build simple buildings overnight.

And although there were three people in this place, only Medusa came out to greet Kuroka, “Good morning. How are things going on that side?”

Kuroka stretched her arms up to loosen the tension on her back, “They’re chasing down the Alphecca Tyrant user but I think it’s a trap to gather everyone there. It shouldn’t be long before things explode. Are you going to bring them over?”

Medusa nodded her head, “It’s a good opportunity for them. Regardless of the result, I’ll take responsibility.”

“Don’t single-handedly assume responsibility, nyaa~ I’m in this too.”

Medusa chuckled and asked, “Oh? You want to get a scolding from him?”

Grinning, Kuroka replied, “Like you, I’m looking forward to it!”

Contrary to Kisuke’s wishes of just letting Aika naturally recover, the two of them decided to just throw her at the site of conflict to hasten the process, of course, without saying anything to Kisuke. They came to this conclusion after watching Aika for the last two weeks and they thought that Kisuke was taking the wrong approach here.

Compared to him, who was buried in his work, Kuroka and Medusa could actually see Aika’s decision and didn’t think that it’d be good for her to stay this way. Not when she kept returning to this place at every opportunity she could get and would even lie about it to her parents.

“Where is she, anyway?” Kuroka asked while looking at the log cabin. Although she could feel Riveria’s presence in her room, she couldn’t tell where Aika was.

“She returned home yesterday. I think she decided to confront her parents about the course she wants to take.”, replied Medusa while looking in the direction of Aika’s place.

“Even though she hasn’t remembered anything substantial?”

“Isn’t this the main reason why we planned to take her there?”

“That’s true, nya~” Kuroka chuckled, “What about Riveria? How has her ridiculousness evolved?”

Medusa hesitated for a moment before sighing and answering, “She’s now able to imbue the petrification attribute into normal Mana Bullets.”

Kuroka was just asking casually and didn’t really expect to receive such a ridiculous answer, “S-seriously? She was able to copy your petrification and was even able to apply it into something else?”

Medusa nodded, “It wasn’t as strong as mine and she can’t really use it directly because she doesn’t have my eyes.”

“W-what if she could replicate your eyes too?”

“…I don’t know if that’s even possible.” Medusa shook her head, “It wasn’t just that. She’s also able to replicate your Illusion Youjutsu. And as if that wasn’t enough, she’s also able to do something similar to Touki.”

“Even Youjutsu!? With Demonic Power!? …And do you mean the Touki Shirone and I use? Not the general one?”

“I don’t think she has seen any other Touki users aside from you. On top of that-”

“There’s more!?”

Medusa nodded once again, “It seems that she’s also capable of replicating some Martial Arts. When we sparred in some close combat practice, I saw that she was slowly adapting my movements. As such, I speculate that her eyes… No… Her Demonic Ability is to see through the world’s logic and use it for herself and even modify it to her liking.”

The corner of Kuroka’s lips twitched, “…What the heck? That’s OP.”

“It is. But it’s not all sunshine and rainbows for her, since it’s also accompanied by some pretty heavy restrictions. First is the energy consumption but that isn’t really a problem once she expands her capacity or gets a battery as an artificial source.

“Second is that it seems to cause heavy strain on her mind. There was one time she got too excited and instantly lost consciousness while bleeding from her orifices.” Medusa sighed yet again while holding her head when recalling that incident, “I panicked that day, you know? I thought of calling Kisuke, but I didn’t think he’d be able to respond immediately considering where he is, so I instead called Sakura-san. Thankfully, it was only bad mental fatigue.”

“Only? That’s pretty bad though? Could have sent her into a coma, nyaa.”

Ignoring Kuroka’s comment, Medusa continued, “Third is that if she doesn’t work hard and study, she won’t be able to retain what she’s ‘learned’. The moment she ‘sees’ it, it’ll only last a day or two in her head. The problem is, once she uses that ability of hers, she’ll be able to ‘capture’ everything that’s happening in her field of view, and if she focuses, she’ll even be able to use her other senses for ‘viewing’.”

“Then isn’t bringing her along to the upcoming battle be just going to be a detriment to her? If she’s unlucky, she’ll overload her mind again.”

And as an extension to that, Riveria’s bane would be large-scale battlefields where everything is happening at the same time. Medusa thought the same so she was now contemplating whether to bring Riveria or not. She’s afraid that when she ‘sees’ thousands of spells being thrown everywhere, her head might actually explode… Literally.

“Shall we consult Kisuke about this, nyaa?”

Medusa looked at her before looking back at Riveria’s window. A few moments later, she replied, “Let’s make a call.”

Half an hour later, Kisuke arrived at their place with a big smile, “So where’s our OP Elf?!”

But Kuroka and Medusa couldn’t answer his question and were instead staring blankly at his lower body, which wasn’t there.

Kisuke, who was standing… or floating, asked them, “What?”

“Did you die?” Kuroka returned a question while pointing at his lower body that could be likened to a traditional pop culture ghost.
