Playing With Other Supernaturals

Chapter 1185 Etoulde Guests

Kisuke went home with a lot of things occupying his mind, more than usual.

[Master, you're very intelligent. And because of that, you were able to change me, my sister's, and many fates.]

Kisuke looked down at the tanto blade on his hand, "What's up with the out-of-nowhere compliment?"

[However, you think too much sometimes so that a simple problem is becoming a complicated one.]

"So you have a solution."

[No. What I'm saying is to think in simpler terms. The opponent's ability is simple, taking and granting names. You're not sealing his ability nor trying to fight against it. You just want your names to be yours and nothing else. Simple, right?]

"...Simple, you say... But it didn't make it easier."

[Simple doesn't mean easy. However, now you won't be as lost. The only other thing I can say is that the moment you doubt yourself in front of him, you'll lose.]

"..." Kisuke didn't say anything for a long time because, in all honesty, he didn't know how useful what Tiamat said to him just now, 'Just keep my name, huh? How simple... and nonsensical.'

Tiamat guessed what he was thinking but also didn't say anything else, 'Anymore will be useless. But it's really just that simple.'

After sneaking through her own security, Gwenn the Hartagertle Mercenary Union receptionist, or rather, former receptionist, arrived at the planet called Nenvetune and its largest city where black market trade was openly being conducted, Zurg. After receiving a piece of information a month ago, she decided to track it and this is the place she ended up with, 'That Yoru... After making a name for herself for 3 ExE cycles, she suddenly disappeared. But at the same time of her disappearance, the upper echelons of the Etouldes suddenly started getting restless with multiple clans clashing with each other for some reason or another. Why do I have a feeling that she has something to do with this?'

It's a baseless line of thinking but she can't somehow remove that from her mind, 'After befriending her for a bit, I'm pretty sure that she's hiding her true appearance and her Pamatypian is just a cover.'

Wearing her cloak that covers her true appearance but not her presence, Gwenn reaches the district where most of the combat slaves are sold. At the darker part of the city, Gwenn came close to the building she wanted to go in, but before she could approach, she suddenly felt a very familiar ability brushing past her, "!?"

Gwenn hurriedly turned towards the source of the ability and met eyes with someone who was wearing the same cloak as her. Even without using her 'eyes', she was able to guess the other's identity, "I certainly didn't expect to meet the Holy Witch here. Are you here to buy some manpower?"

"You know I hate them the most, Sage's Eyes. Though I also certainly didn't expect to see you here."

After that, the two of them went quiet, trying to gauge each other's actions, 'Why is this fake bitch here?' Gwenn thought to herself while staring at the other party's eyes.

'Why is this lazy bitch here.' the Holy Witch, Alicia Crowfeather, also thought to herself.

The two of them were stuck in a stalemate for a minute or two when all of a sudden, a voice came from the relatively small building in front of them that only extends to 3 floors compared to other buildings in the surroundings that are at least 5-story tall, [Instead of blocking traffic, why don't you both come in?]

The two guests were not startled because they already felt another gaze aside from each other examining them.

"...Let's head in?" asked Gwenn.

Alicia also dropped her threatening demeanor and walked up, "Let's go."

The two of them entered the building while regretting calling each other's names. When they got in, the whole place was covered in darkness except for one door with a few neon lights illuminating it, 'Transport pod?' Both of them thought.

As soon as they approached it, they stopped and their innate Spiritual Power skyrocketed and prepared for battle.

Not far from the door, is a tall woman of the Human tribe. Pale white skin, short gloomy white hair, and a black blindfold covering her eyes, "Please don't be alarmed. My name is Laria and I'll be your guide for today."

But how could they not be alarmed? They only felt her presence when they got this close. If she intended to attack one of them from this distance, it could have been trouble.

Gwenn and Alicia stared at her for a few moments before glancing at each other, 'Truce.'

At the quick agreement, Gwenn stepped forward, "Thank you for the work, but why do we need a guide? We just need to meet one person." Since they didn't talk beforehand, Gwenn is just guessing Alicia's intention, 'But that's Yoru's voice and she's inviting both of us. The witch is also probably here for her.'

Laria stepped to the side and pressed the button beside the door, "The transport pod will only transfer to a specific place if there's a registered aura traveling together."

The door opened and Laria went inside while also inviting the two, "Please."

Gwenn hesitated for a bit but soon stepped into the pod. However, she didn't let her Spiritual Power rest and her eyes scanned everything she could to gleam some clues and prepare for anything unexpected.

Alicia also hesitated for a bit before following Gwenn, but not before spreading out her invisible threads.

Although not as good as her mistress, Laria could also feel the spread out of Spiritual Power thanks to some training she had. Nonetheless, she didn't mind this and activated the transport pod. A second later, the three of them disappeared.

As intense light covered their senses, Gwenn and Alicia both prepared their own portable emergency transport module which didn't appear in the market, and if it did, only in black markets and would be enough to buy a portion of a small planet.

When the light disappeared, they found themselves in a wide prairie and a wooden cabin in the middle of it with a field full of different crops and some livestock beside it.

"A small world?" Alicia muttered to herself while looking around and spreading her threads everywhere aside from the cabin.

Gwenn saw the threads avoiding the cabin and said, "You can feel it?"

"My senses are not as good as yours but it's enough to avoid danger."

"This way please." Laria interrupted them and started walking ahead.

The girls followed and they didn't have to reach the cabin to see the only other person present within the space plowing new fields.

She also felt their presence and turned around to greet them, "Ah, you're here. Welcome."

But instead of feeling welcomed, Alicia's eyes widened in surprise, and hurriedly activated her emergency transport module.

Gwenn was shocked at her sudden action but was more stupefied when all of a sudden, a dense and heavy Spiritual Pressure that would put most of the high-ranking Etouldes in shame suddenly blanketed the whole space and she heard the farmer girl mutter, "Bankai."

The emergency transport module activated but to Alicia's horror, it couldn't open the space, "Space lock? And to this degree? Unbelievable..." she murmured to herself before turning and glaring at the farmer girl, "I didn't expect to meet the Sage's Eyes in this place, but that's still in the realm of possibility... However, what are you doing here, Yoruichi Shihouin?"
