Playing With Other Supernaturals Volume 7 398 -A New Reason to Search

Volume 7 Chapter 398 – A New Reason to Search

Lefiya, using her Elf Ring, was able to cast the magic of the Elvish Princess, Riveria Ljos Alf’s attack spell, Wynn Fimbulvetr. The spell blasts the opponents with an extremely cold blizzard and freezes them solid. It was then up to the other three to crush the monster, which took less than a minute to do so.

The girls of the Loki Familia approached the girls of the Hestia Familia, wanting to thank them. However, Yoruichi stopped their advance and told them, “There are still monsters roaming around, so let’s save this for later.” She then turned around and the two others followed her after giving their farewells.

After seeing them leave, Loki then instructed her children, “Lefiya, go with the guild folks and get healed up a bit. Tione, Tiona, would the two of you go underground? Got a feeling there’s still something there. Ais, we’ll take care of the last monster together.” Their group split up soon after.

On the other hand, Yoruichi’s group suddenly stopped at a desolated alley, “Sona-chan, did you notice?”

Sona nodded at her question, “Yes. I’ve been using a low powered magic sonar in the middle of the battle so that no one should suspect anything.”

“What are the two of you talking about?” Aika asked in confusion.

“Someone is lurking underground while all of this is happening. I’ll go check it first.” After Yoruichi answered Aika’s question, she used Flash Step and disappeared in front of them.

Down the hole that the plant monster has created, is the complex sewer system of Orario. Without being careful, roaming around these parts could trap you for days.

A hundred meters away, a figure in a black cloak is running away from the spot where the plant monster appeared. A few seconds later, Yoruichi appeared behind the running figure and instantly knocked them out by striking their neck, “KAH!!”

Yoruichi caught her and opened up her cloak and saw a black-haired Elf. Opening her eyes, Yoruichi saw that they were red. After making sure that she didn’t change her appearance in any way, she memorized her face. It was then she noticed that something amiss with her, ‘It’s just half of her soul present in her body? What’s this?’

Yoruichi frowned and tried to record everything she can for a few minutes before getting the magic stone in her hand and leaving quietly, ‘I wonder what’s her story… And where’s the missing part? It doesn’t look like it was forcefully severed too.’ As the mystery deepens, Yoruichi arrives back with the girls.

“How was it?” Sona asked, seeing the frown on Yoruichi’s face.

“Let’s return first. I want to tell and pass something to Kisuke.”

“So yeah, I did some poking around underground after that, but couldn’t find a thing. At least the rest of the monsters were easy as pie.” Loki said to the Goddess she invited over to a detached building of the Twilight Manor to complain.

“The nerve. I’d been wondering why you called me out here at this late hour.” Freya sighed, however, it’s pretty obvious to Loki that she has something else in her mind, “I have no connection to today’s incident or interest in your involvement.”

Loki frowned at her strange demeanor but immediately hid her expression by drinking wine, “Big words, coming from the culprit herself.”

Freya’s eyes widened at her words before smiling, “My, my. Do you have any proof?”

“Not a single injured bystander. Escaped monsters acted like they were searching for something and ignored all the townsfolk. A lot of them were charmed and I can’t remember seeing a certain airheaded vixen anywhere at the scene. Even the guys in charge of watching the monsters were falling all over themselves, or so I’ve been hearing.” Putting down her glass of wine, Loki stood up and put her foot on her chair before pointing at Freya with a big grin on her face, “Charmed, charmed, charmed. All this charm. That settles it. Not that I have a clue what you were trying to achieve though.”

Freya picked up her glass of wine and gave up on denying her accusations, “Fufu. Indeed. What you say is true. For the most part.”

Loki then proceeded to threaten her, “Wonder if the Guild would like to hear about this? Their punishments are pretty harsh, aren’t they?”

In response to that, Freya only muttered a few words, “The Eagle Feather Robe.”

“…Come again?”

“The Eagle Feather Robe I lent you has yet to be returned, yes?”

“M-maybe so, but… I’ve really taken a liking to it. Returning it now would be just…” Loki started faltering.

After getting the reaction she’s aiming for, Freya smiled brightly, “If you’re willing to overlook today, or rather, if you’ll turn a blind eye to my activities from here on out, I’d be willing to let you keep it. How does that sound?”

“…” Loki made a complicated face before shouting and scratching her head in frustration, “Gah! Dammit! Dastardly woman! Now I’m pissed! And I even warned you! One of my cute kiddos got beat up pretty bad taking down one of those monsters.”

“…?” This time, Freya is genuinely confused as she explicitly commanded the monsters she released not to hurt anyone else besides the target.

“Why are you making that face? You know the one. The tenth! All snaky and gross, with a flower for a head.”

“… I only released nine monsters.”

“…Lying through your teeth.”

“It’s the truth. I only needed them to delay yours and Ganesha’s children. I never intended to cause any harm with my little prank.”

Loki’s expression became serious, “…Well then, the heck was that monster?”

“Who knows? I don’t even know what you’re referring to.”

“…”

“…”

Freya then stood up, “If there’s nothing else, I would like to take my leave.”

Loki knew that she wouldn’t be getting anything about the plant monster from Freya so she asked the final thing that has been bothering her, “You’ve been out of it for a while now… Are you thinking of messing with that kid, Kisuke Urahara? Take my warning seriously this time. You can’t touch him.”

“Although I’m indeed interested in him, I found an even more interesting and troublesome child.” Freya only gave this answer before leaving for good.

“More interesting than him?” Loki frowned at her words.

Once she got away from the Twilight Manor, Freya muttered to the wind, “Ottar.”

A burly man then appeared beside her, “Yes, Freya-sama.”

“What happened to the child I asked you to search?” Freya is referring to the child with a crimson soul she saw last time.

“No news about him anywhere. We couldn’t even find a single clue about him.”

“I see… Ramp up your search on him. I want to meet him.” Freya commanded and Ottar disappeared again after acknowledging it.

Freya recalled the moment Bell grabbed the knife that the cloaked and masked man threw to him. The moment he touched it, Bell’s soul increased in radiance, as if it just accepted a great tonic and the knife became connected to his very soul. The only other type of weapon that can do something similar is a Divine Weapon, which the Gods themselves use. And the man who gave that knife to him and waved at her is the same crimson-colored soul she got a glimpse before, “Who are you?”
