Playing With Other Supernaturals Volume 2 72 -A Cute? Dragon

Volume 2 Chapter 72 – A ‘Cute?’ Dragon

“A giant flying liz—”

“Aika-senpai, shut up for a moment,” Koneko whispered to her ear as she covers her mouth.

Yoruichi and Kisuke turned their heads on Aika with their mouths twitching but didn’t say anything. They then refocused their attention to the gigantic red dragon that is flying to their position.

The dragon is a massive red Western Dragon with a horn on his snout and has two sets of wings. His overall length measures around 100 meters.

“Hey, Kisuke.” Yoruichi opened her mouth and asks.

“Hmm?”

“Are the boss encounters this common? Just last night, a dragon in a form of gothic lolita that can be regarded as the strongest we’ve ever seen visited us. Now we caught the attention of another one of the same level. Are we really that eye-catchy for these guys?” Yoruichi asks in an exasperated voice. She also wants to do a facepalm but stopped herself as she can’t lose focus now.

“Maybe our power system is just that eccentric for them? Or maybe it caught sight of my Cero and got curious? Anyways, Koneko, Aika, when I say leave, teleport back to shop with your pendants. I and Yoruichi will also follow behind but don’t move, for now, it isn’t hostile yet.” Kisuke answered Yoruichi’s question with more of his questions and gave instructions to Koneko and Aika.

Koneko already separated from Aika and they nodded silently while also staring at the big dragon.

The red dragon approaches the hole and stared at the four of them. Kisuke and Yoruichi increased their vigilance as the dragon’s gaze pass through them.

The dragon kept staring at them for a minute and two when Kisuke noticed something. Due to its large size and reptilian eyes, he couldn’t easily pinpoint its focus in a short amount of time, but now he’s sure that most of its attention is on Kisuke and Aika, ‘It’s understandable if it’s just me or Yoruichi, but Aika?… Wait… Aika also caught Ophis’ attention, maybe its related to her Sacred Gear too? Dammit, my senses are still in mess and I can’t gauge the dragon’s soul accurately. And it isn’t even trying to hide it either.’

The dragon saw Kisuke’s expression something change in its eyes. If not for his very powerful observation skills, Kisuke wouldn’t have noticed it, “It’s… gloating?”

“Hmm? What did you just say?” Yoruichi thought that she heard him wrong as his words don’t match the situation at all.

“I said that it’s gloating while looking at me… No, more like it is showing off? I also can’t believe what I’m seeing right now. Its demeanor also doesn’t match its appearance and power level like Ophis-chan.” Kisuke unconsciously rubbed his eyes, but what he saw didn’t change, ‘Seriously?’

“It looks cool!” Aika muttered, but that level of volume is enough for the dragon to here.

Kisuke noticed the subtle action of raising its chin a little, “Oh? It likes your compliment.”

“Really!?” Aika also felt a bit shock.

“Tough on the outside but cute in the inside?” Yoruichi couldn’t help but say.

“Hey!” Kisuke felt helpless after hearing his partner and is getting ready to escape, ‘I hope it doesn’t follow us to the Human world.’

The dragon also heard her and snorted. The snort took a form of a large shockwave that broke the temporary barrier the Yoruichi put up with four knives and almost lifted all of them into the air. Kisuke was about to give his signal to escape but halted as he saw the dragon ignore Yoruichi and didn’t have any further action.

Now the dragon is just staring at Aika and it’s unknown what it is thinking, although only Kisuke can tell this and Yoruichi to some extent.

Aika can also somehow tell that the red dragon is staring at her as she suddenly left something squirming inside her and lock eyes with it.

Kisuke’s mind is trying to calculate the things he could do and gain and just chose to wait and see. Another few seconds of silence prevailed and the tension increased.

The silence was broken when Kisuke, Yoruichi and Koneko noticed a ball of red light 10 centimeters across suddenly manifested in front of its snout. The ball of light suddenly shoots out and traveled to Aika’s direction. Koneko and Yoruichi wanted to block it for her but Kisuke stopped them. Both of them were flabbergasted at Kisuke and looked at him smiling, they decided to just trust him.

Aika wasn’t able to react and the red ball of light hit her disappearing inside her. She panics and touch all over her body but didn’t notice any change, “What the hell was that!?”

Kisuke also inspected her but didn’t notice anything different aside from a subtle change in her aura and his senses which aren’t working properly isn’t helping either, ‘I’ll have to thoroughly examine her later to see what exactly is that ball of energy. I’ll probably have my answers instantly if I start with her Sacred Gear.’

Kisuke returned his attention to the dragon who is seemingly satisfied and turned around with a small snort and slowly flew away. A portal appeared in front of it leading to another part of the Dimension Gap and went through it, ignoring the stares of the rest. And before long, the portal disappeared along with it.

“Why does it feel that it wants a cool exit?” Yoruichi learned from her previous experience and only spoke up after it surely left.

“What a coincidence, I also feel the same.” Kisuke agreed with her.

“Are all great beings this childish?” Yoruichi faced Kisuke and ask.

“If you ask me that, who should I ask? And are you suggesting that there are more of them out there? If that’s the case, it’s a mystery why the worlds are still existing.” Kisuke stretched his body as it’s still sore from earlier events and wanted to rest early, “Koneko-chan, Aika-chan, you two return for now. We’ll follow you after we’re done here. We still have to fix that hole or this training ground would disappear and that would be a shame.” Kisuke returned to his nonchalant self and made them sighed in relief.

Koneko and Aika nodded at him and activated the pendants to return to the shop.

“Now then, It’ll take an hour or two to fix everything. Yoruichi, help me by supplying Reiatsu as I can’t use mine properly yet.” Kisuke started walking towards the hole while thinking of the ways to fix the broken barriers.

Yoruichi skipped towards him and followed behind him, “You have to treat me later after you’re all fixed up.”
