Playing With Other Supernaturals Chapter 924 First Mission

Chapter 924 First Mission

The two heavily hooded individuals were walking through the busy streets but none of the passersby were suspicious of their attire. Even then, the two-eyed their surroundings carefully, [Aren’t we emitting twice the recommended amount of Anti-Recognition Magic? What if we catch the attention of something troublesome?]

[I want us to complete this mission as fast as possible. Things are moving fast in London and we can’t expect support from our superiors since they’re stuck trying to avoid attention. Only those with sufficient perception will be able to detect us. If they’re stronger than us, we’ll escape but if not, we’ll take them.]

The other one nodded silently and continued walking without saying anything more. Unbeknownst to them, however, five pairs of eyes were watching them curiously, “Tanis-chan, are you sure it’s them?” asked the white-haired little girl.

The blue-haired girl nodded, “Yes. Their scent is very different from everyone else. It’s as if they’re like me.”

“What does that mean?” The golden-haired girl asked while tilting her head.

One of the two black-haired girls answered, “…They didn’t come from this world.”

“Eh?” The golden-haired became even more confused.

Despite being related to the influential people, only Ophis and Lilith were actually aware of the possible otherworldly invasion and there was no way the two of them would tell the others if not explicitly asked. As such, even though they’d discovered a very important clue regarding these beings, none of them were aware.

“They look suspicious,” Claire muttered with a giddy tone. When Kunou looked at her, her eyes were shining with excitement, “This looks like a work for our Crimson Order of Magical Girls Society!”

As if on cue, light shone from the girls’ bodies except for Kunou lit up the entire alley they were in. When the light subsided and Kunou opened her eyes again, she was greeted by her friends in very cute and frilly attires and accessories that matched their hair colors, “M-Magical Girls!?” Kunou instantly forgot her confusion and became lovestruck by the outfits that she could only see in anime and plays, ‘I thought she was joking!’

But then, she recalled the scene that they’d caused and the voice she’d raised before looking back at the hooded people in a panic thinking that they’d notice their presence, “This is… bad? Wait… They didn’t notice?”

“Of course, they wouldn’t. We’re in stealth mode.” Claire answered as a matter of fact.

“…What?” Kunou hurriedly looked around and only now that she noticed that there was a barrier around them, “…H-how? Why did I not notice anything?”

“Tch, tch, tch.” Claire repeatedly clicked her tongue while swinging her forefinger left and right, “The first rule of stealth: Don’t let anyone know you’re going stealthy~!” Before whispering under her breath, “According to Yoruichi-neechan.”

“…Since when?”

“Ever since Tanis-chan discovered them.”

Kunou made an unbelieving expression and probably any other people besides her would have too. But contrary to their innocent appearance, these girls were bonafide Adventurers and Mercenaries, albeit not registered in any Guild, for exploring the depths of the Dungeon and fighting monsters on an almost daily basis because they got bored after studying.

Of course, these girls would happily tell Cleria and Sakura their activities within the Dungeon whenever the ‘Contact Day’ arrived but the latter two have a misunderstanding that they were only going around the uppermost floors and just listened to them with warm smiles plastered on their faces. Naturally, everyone around them knew of this misunderstanding. Still, none of them actually cleared it up because nobody wanted to be scolded. It became a tacit agreement to keep it that way while justifying their stance, ‘They are protected by Medusa and Kuroka 24/7 from the shadows, so it isn’t actually that dangerous.’ while also giving them the skills they needed to fight.

“Let’s follow them!” Claire declared and the other three Magical Girls raised their hands, “Ohhh~!”

“Wait!” Kunou raised her voice, causing the others to all look at her. Becoming embarrassed, Kunou muttered while fiddling with her fingers, “I also want a costume.”

Claire grinned at her and snapped her fingers, “Ophis-chan, Lilith-chan, please~!”

The Ouroboros Magical Girls also snapped their fingers and in an instant, golden light covered Kunou. A second later, the same attire but also matching her hair appeared on her, “Welcome to the Crimson Order of Magical Girls Society!”

‘Although there’s no crimson one?’ Kunou retorted in her head, but she was so happy with her clothes that she soon forgot it.

After an hour of walking around, the pair of hooded individuals finally discovered who they needed to take away to be experimented with, a caucasian woman who was just going about her day and was about to go home after work. More than ten meters away, the woman noticed their suspicious attire and became cautious of them.

Keeping her bag close to her and tightly clutching it, she went past the pair and heaved a sigh of relief before feeling a bit guilty about how obviously she acted cautiously toward them. But a second later, her vision darkened and her initial reaction was to shout. However, she couldn’t do that as something had also covered her mouth before she felt her body accelerating backward.

The terror-filled woman tried her best to retaliate as she’d finally realized that someone had grabbed her from behind and was now running towards who knows where.

As tears began to flow from her eyes she did everything she could think of to save herself or gather attention since she knew she was in a busy street. However, her efforts only betrayed her as there are no signs of them stopping nor any signs of anyone chasing after her.

Nevertheless, she didn’t have the time to feel hopeless as she felt a momentary feeling of weightlessness, before landing in two short and soft arms.

The woman’s vision came back along with the sound of something crashing not far from her. Too bad, however, as a heavy feeling of sleepiness suddenly came over her mind and the last thing she saw was a colorful band of little girls facing what seems to be robots.

“Nice one, Tanis-chan~!”

“He’s hard! Armor?”

“Golems…? How strange.”

“Ophis-chan, Lilith-chan, please seal the area~!”
