Volume 7 Chapter 349 – Commencing Plan

Four days later, Kisuke already fully healed his right arm and called everyone for a meeting first thing in the morning. And that does not include Hestia as she’s still sleeping.

“I called everyone today because there will be a change of schedule.” Kisuke started.

“This is sudden… What happened?” Sona asked. She knew that Kisuke wouldn’t easily change his schedule and today is the day they are supposed to update their status so that they can move away from the I-rank parameters.

“Some of my scanning instruments detected some strange activities in the Dungeon and Yoruichi, Kuroka, Medusa, and I will be going to investigate it as it might be something that urgently needs attention,” Kisuke explained without a change in his tone, “With that, we will be postponing the status update for today… What about you three? What do you want to do?”

Sona, Aika, and Koneko looked at each other. They’re already satisfied with their control in Mana but since the update is not going to happen, it’s not bad if they can improve more, “We’ll continue our exploration. But since it might become dangerous if you detected something, then we’ll only stay on the ninth floor to practice.”

“Alright. Be careful.” Kisuke then dismissed the three of them so that they can buy some potions and head to the Dungeon early.

Once the three of them left, Yoruichi faced Kisuke, “Are you sure about this?”

Kisuke stayed silent for a moment before answering seriously, “I am.”

Yoruichi sighed and face the two other people left in the room, “Let’s review the plan. According to their capabilities, the optimal monsters that they should face are Minotaurs.”

Kuroka nodded and added further, “Sona can, at most, hold three Minotaurs at once with her muddy water while the Shirone and Aika can run around one each. With that, we need six Minotaurs to…” Kuroka was about to say ‘kill them’ but stopped herself but the rest understood what she meant.

“So here’s the plan. Yoruichi and I will be keeping a close watch on their souls while you Kuroka and Medusa will lure the appropriate monsters. I already change the effects of their protective charms. Instead of protecting them from fatal attacks, its effects are now to seal their real powers so that they would only able to use their Falna to defend themselves. Thanks to that, it should become easier for them to take the Falna’s abilities for themselves in the future.”

“What about those that will protect their souls?” Kuroka asked.

“Aside from the existing protection that I gave them before, these past 4 days, I didn’t sleep to add more protection. Nine more layers to protect their souls from any damage, six more layers of protection against the influence of the world itself, and three more layers against the Gods’ prying eyes. Of course, even with all of those, it’s not possible to cover every possibility. That’s why Yoruichi and I will be focusing on their souls’ states.

“And in case that they really die, I already prepared three Gigais or fake bodies that aim to preserve their souls before I fix or remake their existing dead bodies.”

“I-I’m relieved to hear that… But you really know how to revive the dead, huh…” Kuroka still couldn’t believe that someone is capable of something like this.

Kisuke smiled and corrected her, however, “It’s not reviving the dead. I can’t revive the dead. The ‘death’ you’re talking about is just a state of existence. And ‘true death’ for me is when someone ceased existing… And I can’t revive that.”

Kuroka finally understood his point of view. It turns out that they’re perceiving ‘death’ differently. Medusa, on the other hand, only nodded at Kisuke’s words. After all, she already ‘died’ countless times and tried to find a way to cease herself existing before.

“Now then… Let’s go. I’ll leave it to the two of you to decide how you should proceed… But remember… No matter how hard it is to watch them, don’t help. You’ll be defeating the entire purpose of this plan.”

“I hope this goes well…” Yoruichi muttered while watching them leave.

“I really do hope so… I don’t want them to be added to our growing amount of weak points… Even though I can take revenge when something happens, it’ll be long over for regretting.” He also didn’t want to resolve in this method too, but with how fast things are moving, he can’t just let them naturally grow.

Hearing that, Yoruichi couldn’t help but smile, ‘He has changed… He’s already afraid of losing the things he has now…’

Kuroka and Medusa went in the Dungeon’s 1st floor and put on a robe to hide their overall figures before putting up an optical barrier that lets them blend in with the walls. Kuroka also used her Ki techniques to hide both of their aurae and waited for the arrival of the trio.

Half an hour later, the trio arrived and went pass them without them noticing. After allowing some distance, the Kuroka and Medusa started following them discreetly. The two of them also took care not to stare at them directly as they might get noticed. As an alternative, the duo followed them by following their traces. And since they’re taking their time, it took them about an hour to arrive on the 9th floor where they would be practicing their techniques.

The three girls then started slaughtering the Kobolds and Goblins on their way. Kuroka and Medusa gained some distance from them and started talking about their next step. And once they predicted the path that they would take, Medusa proposed that she’s going to the middle floors to lure the Minotaurs they are going to need while Kuroka will keep track of the group.

When Medusa successfully lured the Minotaurs, she’ll give a signal to Kuroka when they arrived at the 9th floor and Kuroka will let out a signal of their exact location and where Medusa should go to trap the girls with the Minotaurs.

Verifying their plan, Medusa hurriedly went down to the 13th floor to look for Minotaurs. However, once she started her search, all Minotaurs here are alone and figured that she would need to be on floor 15th or 16th to at least get a group of six Minotaurs.

Without wasting any time, Medusa descended towards the 15th floor, but once she arrived, the number of Minotaurs on this floor is lower than she expected and descended one more floor. It was then that she noticed the commotion coming from the 17th floor and decided to take a look. If things don’t look good, she would need to cancel this plan and put it on hold.

When she arrived in the big room which is the 17th floor, she saw a horde of Minotaurs, around a hundred of them. And in front of those monsters are the Loki Familia who just arrived and came across the monster horde.

She decided that there wasn’t much threat and intended to gather the six Minotaurs that she needed from the 16th floor, but before she could leave, the horde of Minotaurs suddenly started running away from the Adventurers of the Loki Familia after their initial clash.

‘Should we cancel?’ However, seeing that the horde is running towards her position, the entrance of the 16th floor, Medusa decided to push on. ‘No… I’m already here so I should just get 6 monsters from that horde.’

Hiding from their sights, Medusa took out a candy which is made by Kisuke. Inside this candy is a large amount of compressed Mana attuned to her own so that she can make use of it.

After swallowing the candy, from her child form, Medusa returned to her very mature form that is more beautiful and graceful than most Goddesses in Orario. She then materialized the blindfold that can stop her eyes’ abilities because she didn’t bring her glasses. Since her attire is also a problem, she constructed her former attire before.

With everything ready, Medusa appeared in front of the running Minotaur horde and the Loki Familia group who’s chasing after them.
