Playing With Other Supernaturals

Chapter 717 A Short Outing

Chapter 717 A Short Outing

Around 10:00 AM, Kisuke took the three little girls out. The others wanted to come, but Kisuke refused their participation, citing that today is the kids' day. Kisuke checked Tanis, who had her 'special' characteristics hidden through a field created by his special energy that anyone, including the Gods, couldn't see through, to make sure that the device he made was functioning properly.

The gentle smile on his face couldn't be hidden when he saw her nervously cross the gates and their cheering when she successfully got out of the manor.

As Kisuke watched them from behind and just let them play around, he thought that he would have to make some moves, but was surprised to see that no one came to mess with the little girls, 'Looks like the incident that Ophis caused is still in the minds of these people.'

Prior to going out, Kisuke gave Claire and Tanis candies that would regulate their food intake so no matter how much they eat for today, the feeling of fullness would soon disappear, giving them unlimited freedom of what they could eat for the day. Of course, he had to remind them that it's only for today since it could potentially destroy their senses when it comes to food.

When Tanis asked why Ophis didn't receive any candy, the latter only answered with a smug face, "I am... strong."

"So if I become as strong as Ophis-chan, I can eat anything!?" asked Tanis innocently.

Patting her shoulder, Ophis replied with a weird glint within her eyes, "All my followers shall stand on the top of the world."

"I will become as strong as Ophis-chan~!" declared Tanis.

"Me too~!" joined by Claire.

Although none of them truly knows what they are saying.

Nodding proudly, Ophis replied, "I shall guide you on how to subdue some birds and bats. And after that, their owners."

" "Yaaay~!!!" " Both of them cheered. Of course, they still have no idea that Ophis was talking about the three largest Factions on Earth.

Overhearing their conversation, Kisuke got a little bit nervous but also became extremely curious, 'Just what was she learning these past few weeks? And what is she planning to do in the future? Maybe I should let her finish her castle?'

Kisuke in the future would recall this moment as the beginning of the legend of 'The Three Void Empresses and their Flying Castles'.

While watching them frolic together, Kisuke's mind ended up wandering to the recent events and reflected over them. It didn't take too long for his train of thoughts to reach the scene yesterday where he'd talked to Syr before he separated from her, 'Was it a good idea to present a contradiction to her belief? Even though she's more open-minded than most Deities, I just went against the belief that she's carried her whole life. I hope that this won't cause extreme action from her in an attempt to solidify her belief.'

After calming down and reflecting, Kisuke regretted opening his mouth yesterday, 'And I just can't take back what I just said... Forget it. There's no use regretting that. What's the worst she could do? Charm the whole town? I really doubt she'd do that unless someone kicks her in the face.'

While mulling over things, Kisuke caught sight of the Loki Familia members. Ais, Tione, and Tiona seemed to be shopping for some things, but the moment the three of them saw Kisuke's group, instead of greeting them, Ais immediately did a 180 and ran away.

It wasn't just Kisuke who was surprised by this but also the Hiryute sisters who didn't know what to do after witnessing that. For now, however, both of them chased after Ais despite wanting to ask Kisuke what he did to Ais for her to have such a strange reaction like that, 'Am I really that scary?'

But after a while, Kisuke just shrugged his shoulders and sent what just happened at the back of his mind.

The three of them wanted to continue playing until late afternoon but they had to go back early afternoon when Ophis said that the egg was about to hatch.

Kisuke was surprised by this because his initial estimates were way off and figured that Ophis must have done something to the egg overnight.

Arriving back home, Kisuke and Ophis went straight to the egg and saw Artemis who volunteered to look after it poking it.

When Artemis saw them enter the room, she immediately said, "Welcome back. I think I saw it moving earlier."

Kisuke nodded at her and turned to Ophis, "Is it supposed to hatch today?"

Ophis nodded and went straight to the egg to cradle it.

Kisuke stared at the egg for a while and thought, 'It seems that it'll hatch in an hour or two.' Sitting beside Ophis, he chose to wait with her. During that time, he noticed that Ophis avoided using her 'Infinity' as she guided and injected Magic Power from the atmosphere into the egg.

"Why?" asked Kisuke.

"This child already escaped fate without my power. She doesn't need it."

Kisuke thought back to the moment Ophis sealed the Dragon into the egg. Because the corrupted Spirits ripped the Dragon from the Dungeon, its link to both sides was so weak that Ophis was able to pull it out from the corrupted Spirits and the Dungeon without using her real power.

"Her desires shall be fulfilled by herself." added Ophis.

"Desire?"

Ophis nodded at Kisuke's question but she didn't elaborate any further.

Artemis, meanwhile, was squinting her eyes and pouted her mouth a little, "Another cryptic conversation... Mind explaining it?"

"Fufufu. Just think of it as a new friend coming into existence." Kisuke just chuckled at her question.

However, at this moment, something shook Kisuke's consciousness, and immediately looked towards the direction of the Dungeon's entrance, 'What? Right now? That was fast.'

He then stood up and said, "Something came up so I'll leave for a short while." Although he wanted to see the egg hatch, he has a responsibility he has to take care of.

"Where are you going? Are you going to eat dinner with us?" asked Artemis with a bit of concern.

Kisuke smiled wryly at her question, "I'm just going for a short trip to the Dungeon to fetch someone. By the way, please ask Medusa and Akeno-san to prepare an additional portion for dinner."

"A guest? Got it."

But as Kisuke was about to leave through the door, he recalled something quite important and turned to Ophis once again, "What about the Dragon's heartbeat? Would I need to put up a barrier?"

Shaking her head, Ophis answered, "She's already past that point."

"I see." He then looked at Artemis's direction one last time, "I think it'll be a good idea to call others. After all, it's a rare chance to see a Dragon egg hatch."
