Volume 5 Chapter 236 - The Start
Now that they are done with Aika and Koneko, the couple decided to check on Medusa. However, when they reached her bedside, both of them staggered and stopped, "Yoruichi… When did we kidnap a kid?" Kisuke asked.
"Don\'t ask me… But it does sound something you\'d do." Yoruichi replied without pausing.
"Hey! I wouldn\'t do that!… Probably."
Yoruichi ignored Kisuke and jumped on the bed to take a closer look at the sleeping child. Her appearance is that of a lovely girl similar to Medusa\'s sisters inside her core, "What do you think happened?"
Kisuke touched Medusa\'s forehead and sent a pulse of his Reiatsu-Ki to gather information from her body. He separated his hand and rubbed his chin to think for a moment, "I removed everything corrupted in her core, as a result, her core was reduced by a sizable amount. Since her core is a lot smaller than usual, it couldn\'t support her large body and she became like this… I guess. That\'s how I understand it now but I could be wrong and might be something else entirely. We won\'t know for sure until I do an in-depth examination."
Yoruichi nodded in understanding but asked in concern, "Is that a good or a bad thing?"
"As I can see it… It\'s a good thing. Unlike how we met her for the first time, not just her body, but her entire existence became \'one\'. If you understand what I mean."
"In other words, those things that are preventing her from keeping it together were already gone?"
"That\'s the idea, but it is also not that simple." If Kisuke wants to explain everything to Yoruichi, he would have to delve deeper into the schematics of the soul and body integration. Adding the fact that Medusa has a \'Divine Core\' that plays a big role in her existence, the topic would become even more complicated.
"Well… As long as she\'s okay." Yoruichi jumped down from the bed and transformed into her human form, "I\'ll be patrolling and see what broke loss after your display. After that, I\'ll get mom."
"I see. Be careful and don\'t touch any of them yet." Kisuke kissed her forehead as a good luck charm. But Yoruichi wouldn\'t be satisfied with just that and grabbed his face before planting a sensual kiss on his lips. They went at it for a whole minute and separated with a trail of saliva, "That\'s just a primer. I\'ll overwrite those girls\' smell with mine later~."
Even though Yoruichi accepted the fact that Kisuke would have more partners in the future, she still couldn\'t help but get a bit jealous when she saw Medusa and Sona took a bite from her cake, \'It\'s a different story if they all became the cake though.\'
Kisuke pressed down the heat building up in his body and grinned, "Is that so~? Then I\'ll look forward to it~."
Without saying anything further, Yoruichi left through the window and disappeared among the shadows.
Kisuke stared at the shadow for a few seconds before turning around, "Now then… I should reinforce the house more and contact mom." Although it\'ll attract more attention if his house looks like a fortress, after what he has done earlier, he doesn\'t care anymore. Their safety is more important. Besides, if others see the house in full-blown defense mode, most will try to avoid it.
Kisuke then contacted Sakura and asked her to stay where she was until Yoruichi gets to her location. She asks why, but he only told her that he\'ll explain once she\'s home. Sakura could only reluctantly agree.
"Now that is out of the way…" After doing everything he can, for now, Kisuke took out a lump of curding black blood contained in a glass bottle, "Time to check this guy\'s problem." This bad blood is from Kokabiel and Kisuke wanted to inspect it. Before he incinerated Kokabiel, he secretly took this out from him. Based on Kisuke\'s observation, Kokabiel should have tried to escape, but he didn\'t. He only gave Kisuke a weird feeling so he suspected something is up and investigating it wouldn\'t hurt.
Instead of eating or sleeping to end his day, Kisuke experimented with Kokabiel\'s blood and only stopped in the afternoon the next day, "Whew~! That sure took a lot of time." Kisuke wiped the sweat on his forehead. Now that he has the time to rest, Kisuke immediately noticed a cute intruder. Beside him is Ophis who has been quietly staring at him for who knows how long, \'Oh right… I made an exception for her in the barrier.\'
"Have you been waiting long?" Kisuke put away all of his tools and cleaned himself up with magic.
Ophis, in response, only silently nodded.
"Hahaha… Sorry about that." Kisuke patted her head, "Go sit on the couch of the living room first. I\'ll bring the doughnuts and some other snacks with drinks as an apology after I check on those girls."
Ophis\' eyes lit up when she heard him say that there will be additional snacks and she turned around walking briskly towards the living room to wait. Kisuke chuckled at her reaction and proceed to check on the sleeping girls.
They\'re still sleeping but their condition is now a lot better, especially the two injured girls, "I have to develop another healing method… Kidou isn\'t very effective for those with a physical body even if it\'s
using Reiatsu-Ki. There is something different about it and I have yet to know what it is. Orihime\'s \'Reject\' ability is powerful, but I can\'t always have that. Besides, it\'s effectiveness is reversing fatal injuries and it would be a waste to use it on anything else."
Kisuke thought for a while and reached a conclusion, "I should either develop one using Mana or study a Hollow\'s High-Speed regeneration… Either way, it\'s going to take some time." He muttered while he walks towards the living room where Ophis is staying.
Even before Kisuke was able to lay down all of the snacks on the center table, Ophis started attacking them like she has some sort of grudge to it. Kisuke, on the other hand, filled the table to the brim with all sorts of snacks and started filming Ophis\'s battle like he\'s a dad who\'s recording his daughter\'s precious memories.
As peaceful as it is now, Kisuke\'s actions stirred the whole supernatural world in action. And in the far future, Kisuke would look back to this event as his lucky break. If he had chosen to stay silent and hidden like he originally intended to, he probably couldn\'t have protected everyone important to him.
If he didn\'t came out, those in the shadows wouldn\'t have eyed and moved against him which will lead to various incidents and coincidence that will truly shape his future and prepare him for the enemies that he won\'t be able to defeat alone.
