Playing With Other Supernaturals

Chapter 1308 A Small Display of Power

Tessai turned to Kisuke with an exasperated expression, "Just what did you do on that side to be 'controversial'? I know that you're reckless, but not to the point of deliberately attracting attention."

"Don't blame him." Serafall immediately retorted, "From what I heard, he was just dragged in the first few times and he got involved with people who could influence a portion of the world. You know him. Once he has to do something, he'll do it to take back control... And he's so damn good at it that he eventually became an influence that no one could ignore anymore."

Serafall then smirked after pausing for a bit, "It would have turned out differently if he became recognizable through time, but he essentially shot straight through the sky with no one being able to grab his feet... And a lot of people didn't like that."

The current generation is an anomaly and it wasn't just Serafall who shared this opinion.

There are many who rose to prominence this past decade and most of them could probably turn the world upside down if they decided to go down the wrong path. However, unlike Issei, the Red Dragon, Vali, the White Dragon, Rias, the Gremory Princess, or CaoCao the Hero of Longinus, Kisuke, and Yoruichi are nobodies.

Even though Issei started out as a normal Human at first, he became tied to the Gremory Household and he's the host of one of the Longinus. As such, most of his achievements in his earlier years are also partially credited to the Gremory Household and the Underworld.

But unlike him, nobody knows about Kisuke and Yoruichi even after they appeared in the world. With no discerning origin and abilities that go outside of any known systems, no one could understand how they could possess so much power. When everyone realized that there were no chains of obligation tying them down, it was already too late and they were already out of their reach and created a group that was now considered one of the major factions to exist.

At that moment, their conversation was interrupted by a huge wave of Magic Power that washed over the whole region. It was so much that even Kirio, who had lost her power, felt it.

Tessai hurriedly turned towards the window to open it. What he saw outside was a bright red light shining over the whole town, giving those who basked within it a light form of oppression. He thought that there was an enemy attack but Kisuke beside him also peeked and smiled, "I know that's the easiest way to do it, but it had to be as flamboyant as possible, is it?"

"Well, Issei-chan would also want to do something to benefit the Alliance. Either Azazel-chan and Ajuka-chan probably asked him to do it like this." Serafall also stood up and went to the window.

Curious of what's happening, Kirio asked after taking a peek, "What are they doing?"

Kisuke pointed towards the nearby destroyed building and the surrounding debris that are now outlined by a soft red light. As if a miracle, the debris started floating and fusing back to the destroyed building and a few minutes later it was now fully intact that its previous state seemed to have never happened.

"...What's this?"

"Restoration Magic." Kisuke answered Kirio while going back to his seat, "They are repairing the whole region. Naturally, that only works for inanimate objects and recently destroyed buildings."

"It also doesn't work on things that possess a considerable amount of energy." Serafall added, "Those things need a specialist."

Tessai watched the process for a few more minutes before saying, "So this is normal for that side, huh?"

"It's not." Kisuke replied, "That scale of restoration was only possible because it's being done by Issei with the help of a few others who are good with spatial recognition. Believe it or not, but those kids are of legendary status even on the other side. The work they are doing is normally done by thousands of people restoring the buildings one by one."

Serafall nodded and also supplemented, "They are normally not allowed to do this. Yes, they can do it in a snap, but they are also taking away precious jobs from the weaker mages. After all, these restoration and logistic works are a lot better than standing on the frontlines for a lot of people."

"Frontlines..." Tessai muttered before closing the window and going back to his seat. He can ask Kisuke more about that, but with how long they have been staying on this side, he doubts that he also have a proper view of things over there. Since there was no point in continuing this discussion, he decided to face Kirio who also just went back, "What about the Zero Division? I heard none of you will be attending that meeting."

Kirio smiled wryly, "For what? After what Ichibei has done, we really are not in the position to decide what's what. Kyouraku also already promised to us that we can allow our subordinates to return to the Gotei 13 if that's what they want and those who'll remain, including our territories, will be transferred to the Special Region."

"Special Region?"

"That's what we're calling Hell now." Kisuke answered, "The initial plan was for the Soul Society, Hueco Mundo, and the Human World to be transferred to a special space where they could remain stable even after the flow of souls changed. But after Hyousube Ichibei's threat ceased to exist, we couldn't leave Hell alone with all the untapped resources within its expansive land. It will serve as a springboard for the Soul Society to recover and aid for the development of new technologies that will eventually come as long as they trade with the other world."

Serafall frowned, "But it's also this point that those geezers from the other side wouldn't let go of no matter what. With the conflicts intensifying, new lands mean new breathing spaces."

This is another reason why Serafall didn't want to join the negotiations. It was because those from her side will definitely ask for access to these lands. If it was just her, she'd happily offer Hueco Mundo which is essentially a desolate land to ease up the pressure on the Ouroboros Academy and the Dungeon World.

And even just momentarily, this will also ease up the people who are breathing down Kisuke's neck because he's gathering too much influence in such a short amount of time.

If Kisuke didn't decide to back off, she'd be the first one to propose this idea.

Kisuke smiled. He guessed what Serafall was thinking and patted her head, "Don't worry about it. This is actually a very good decoy in my opinion so let's just leave it to them. Just remember that whatever they end up with, we will benefit from it somehow."

Tessai and Kirio shuddered because Kisuke's gentle smile slowly changed into a mocking one. They felt like they heard something they shouldn't and would, of course, not ask about it any further.

"Decoy?"

Kisuke didn't explain just directly changed the topic, "Besides, Kyouraku has some interesting ideas."

"Interesting!?" Kirio couldn't help but snap back at his words, immediately forgetting the previous topic, "They're not interesting! They're just beyond reckless! I can't believe old man Yamamoto agreed to it!"
