Chapter 1331 Main Objective

Yoruichi sent Stralit and Gwenn to a safe place before hurriedly going back to Aika's room, "How is she?"

Within the room wasn't just Aika, who was lying on her bed and heavily breathing and sweating, but also Riveria, Akeno, and Irina taking care of her.

"She went a bit over her time limit, but she's fine overall." Riveria answered as she looked towards Yoruichi, "She just a need a bit of time to rest and cool down. Who did she fight that she had to use Outrage and Phase Change?"

Yoruichi found a chair and sat on it while sighing heavily, "Someone extremely troublesome. And even with all that effort, Aika only hurt him at most."

The three people who are assisting Aika adjust herself were shocked and Akeno immediately commented, "Only hurt him? Even someone like Kisuke who has extreme regeneration ability could be killed by Aika, but she only managed to hurt him?"

Yoruichi shrugged her shoulders, "That's just how unreasonable that man is. If not for Ophis and Lilith's snakes, we wouldn't have it easy like this."

"Sosuke Aizen, was it?" Akeno muttered with an extremely concerned expression, "What's the risk of him retaliating?"

"As time goes on, the lower the risk. He probably already knows what we're capable of so he won't be the type to wait." Yoruichi leaned in before continuing, "The fact that he's not here right now suggests that he might have changed his target."

Irina finished inspecting Aika and applying Holy Power on Aika to counteract the destructive tendencies of her Outrage, "The only prominent Etoulde around here is..."

"Alicia." Yoruichi finished her sentence, "He might go after Alicia, but frankly speaking, that might be good for us."

"And very bad to Shiva's faction." Riveria added, "But if this Sosuke Aizen is not careful or doesn't care in the first place, it won't matter if we deny our association with him, we'll still take the blame. He might just announce it as a form of retaliation to us."

"Maybe. But I doubt he'd do that. He would be actively working against Kisuke at that point, you see? I think he'll at least do it discreetly so that he can properly move."

And just as Yoruichi had expected, Alicia Crowfeather, the main liaison for the Alliance and Shiva's Faction disappeared without any trace.

"This is nuts..." Gwenn scratched her head in frustration upon receiving emergency notice of Alicia's disappearance, "She's really gone?"

Stralit was also looking down at the notice before turning her head up to Yoruichi, "...Is she perhaps..."

Yoruichi waved her hand in dismissal, "I can assure you that she's still alive. That guy, Aizen, only wanted to move on his own and a conveniently rich young lady was running around so he decided to use her as a stepping stone to make it easier for him."

Stralit and Gwenn fell silent and were contrasted by the wind coming through the window ringing the chimes, giving a pleasant vibe.

Yoruichi brought them to the Dungeon World and within the land that the Ouroboros Academy secured after abandoning the gate.

As of right now, they were given a small but very cozy house, and all of their needs were provided. Despite this though, Stralit and Gwenn still consider themselves as prisoners with how they are not allowed to leave.

"What's going to happen now?" Stralit asked. She might be in the same situation as Gwenn, but she's not as worried as her since she at least has some idea of how Kisuke's companions operate, 'If I'm in the same shoes as them, I also wouldn't let go of ourselves until an agreement could be reached.' She felt a bit guilty for Gwenn, but nothing could be done, 'Unless I could fully trust her... That's impossible, huh?' After all, she couldn't trust even her own mother and only revealed the big secret to Kisuke because she didn't have much choice and thought that he's weak.

Yoruichi sat down and gave them a small smile, "That would depend on you guys."

Gwenn narrowed her eyes and asked, "What do you want?"

"No need to be so defensive. I can promise you that even if our negotiation fell through, I won't hold you two any longer than this. You'll be free to go."

"No hidden issues?"

Yoruichi nodded, "No hidden issues."

"Then please tell us what you want first." Stralit initiated the conversation.

"I'll tell you all about the man called Sosuke Aizen in full detail except his origins if you can give me satisfactory answers." Yoruichi saw Gwenn's shoulders shaking a little bit but pretended to have missed it, "I'll start with a simple question." Yoruichi's casual tone disappeared, "Who's really running the show here?"

Stralit slightly tilted her head to the side, "What do you mean?"

However, Yoruichi wasn't looking at her but at Gwenn, "She seems to have an idea of that, so you should ask her."

Stralit eyes widened in surprise and turned to the side, "Gwenn?"

Gwenn looked straight into Yoruichi's eyes for a few moments before sighing and turning her head to Stralit, "This is essentially revealing our information to potential enemies. Are you sure?"

Stralit became silent. She didn't really want it to come to this but considering the situation, she could easily see the unknown man, Sosuke Aizen, prying far more from Alicia, "There's no point of keeping things as they are, right?"

Gwenn smiled wryly, "I'm of the same opinion. I just want to make sure that we're on the same page. We also need information on that man if we want to counter him. It's not an exaggeration that he's on the same level as those from the Holy Family."

"Haahhh..." Stralit let out a huge breath, "Go on. I'm also curious about her question."

Gwenn nodded, "Even before the Evies could be made aware of this world, the Holy Mother already came into contact with one of its denizens and planned to assist him to fend off the inevitable arrival of the Evies who would try to run a thorough analysis of its biological beings."

"Wait... Thorough analysis?" Yoruichi interrupted her.

"Yes. They planned to annihilate all life on this planet and put them through an extreme analysis for replication. This has been their main goal in hopes that they would be able to replicate or engineer something that could render the Etouldes' abilities useless."
