Playing With Other Supernaturals Volume 2 62 -An Idiot

Volume 2 Chapter 62 – An Idiot

After sending off Sakura, Kisuke and the rest re-entered the house. The token imitating Kyouka Suigetsu is still active, but not for long. Kisuke urges them to hurry back inside so that they can start what they have to do for today.

“I need to explain something to you two first.” Kisuke looked seriously at the two residents of this world, he then continued, “I want the two of you to know that I and Yoruichi may have unknowingly attracted the attention of some hostile being. It may become dangerous staying with me but I can somewhat assure your safety. Although you still have to decide if you want to continue this.”

Kisuke then focused his attention on Koneko, “Koneko-chan, I already promised that I’ll help you reconcile with your sister and I do that when the right time comes, but you can choose not to come anymore and avoid this danger that I brought to you.” Kisuke knew that the hidden enemies already took noticed of Koneko, but if she back out now, it’ll reduce the risk of her getting targeted as she still has the support of the Gremory Household and the host of the Red Dragon Emperor which is bound to attract more attention from others, with that, the hidden enemies will think twice if it’s worth it to risk revealing themselves for someone who doesn’t have much interaction to their target.

Kisuke and Yoruichi also planned to protect Koneko from the shadows if she chooses to turn around now, but Koneko didn’t even hesitate and exclaimed, “Are you looking down on me senpai!? I will not turn my back against you and Yoruichi. You already did so much for me that I don’t know if I’ll be able to repay everything in the future. Putting aside my reconciliation with Nee-sama, I still want to learn a lot of things from Yoruichi-san. So don’t throw me away! Even if you do so, I’ll shamelessly cling on you!”

“Hahaha! Good answer! Girls these days really need more guts, although you’re still lacking in muscles, we can work on that!” Yoruichi crossed her arms and praised Koneko’s resolution.

“Stop turning her into a muscle head. She’s not like you who have experience in political affairs from childhood and thus can think critically in all situations.” Kisuke lightly reprimanded Yoruichi with her attitude.

“You don’t have to be worried about that, I also teach her how to respond and think properly in most situations, although she really needs more experience with people, just interacting with you will give her enough edge not to get fooled by any random people.” Yoruichi just returned a sneer to him and Kisuke doesn’t have a comeback to that.

“Well, whatever, I trust your judgment. How about you, Aika-chan? You can still erase your memories of this and live a normal life. This is the final warning for you.” Kisuke transferred his attention to Aika who’s listening to their conversation intently.

“I don’t know how dangerous is this ‘danger’ you’re talking about, but I already made my decision. Don’t try to talk me out of it, I want in!” Aika gave Kisuke her usual smug smile and answered like Koneko, without any hesitation.

“You’re stupid, but you also have guts! But I’m sure you’ll regret it later as I’ll be the one training you in your fundamentals and it won’t be a pretty sight from outside perspective! Do you still want to continue?” Yoruichi released a bit of her pressure to Aika while asking her. Aika suddenly felt like she’s deep underwater and had trouble breathing. Adding to that is Yoruichi’s smiling yet threatening expression. Her resolution crumbled, but she still chose to answer before she completely changes her mind as she knew that she was just testing her, “I’m sure!”

Yoruichi didn’t say anything else after hearing Aika’s answer and just continued to release her pressure for one more minute. Seeing that she still hasn’t changed her mind even after enduring it with a crumpled face, she smiled normally and released Aika from her pressure. Aika is heavily breathing and drenched with cold sweat. Yoruichi thought that she would look at her with a horrified expression, but contrary to her expectation Aika looked at her with admiration, “Wow! Will I be able to do that too?”

Yoruichi is dumbfounded and pleasantly surprised. She turned her head towards Kisuke who is flashing his grin to her, “Amazing right?”

Yoruichi nodded at him and commented, “An idiot. Nevertheless, an amazing idiot.”

“Hey! Why the sudden insult!?” Aika protested from the side. Koneko, who also felt Yoruichi’s pressure, albeit weaker since she’s not the target, also looked at Aika in amazement.

Kisuke didn’t answer her question but instead asked a question himself, “Aika-chan, what do you think is needed to become a full-fledged warrior and become one of the major players in a world where strength is at utmost importance?”

“Hmm? Talent?”

“Wrong. Talent can be defeated by hard work and potential can even be improved with the right guidance. But what truly separates those normal fighters and really exceptional ones is idiocy.”

“You’re saying those strong guys are idiots?”

“In a way, yes. Strong people are eccentrics in their own right. Normal people could never try what those on the top capable of doing. But remember that to become truly strong, you’ll have to risk your life to become strong and not everyone has that courage. That’s why there are a lot more normal people than the strong ones, it’s also because potentially powerful people die with their reckless affair. Well, there are exceptions to this and those are who are born powerful and didn’t have to work as hard. But there are also problems with those beings which is they can’t improve further, most of the time. They tend to underestimate their opponents with low background and ended up being killed by the same idiot because he or she didn’t expect the idiot to do something that would end his life any moment just to defeat his opponent.”

“And those idiots include you two?”

“This guy would recklessly experiment on things and would even use his own body to confirm his research. Think about it, if this guy is not a genius, he would have killed himself long ago.” Yoruichi patted Kisuke’s back while saying her piece.

“And this girl would recklessly challenge strong guys without much thought. A big battle junkie in short. Though we know someone else who is a bigger battle junkie than her. That guy would catch a blade with his bare body just to give his opponent a handicap.” Kisuke also commented on Yoruichi’s behavior and ended up remembering Kenpachi Zaraki.

Both Aika and Koneko were dumbfounded at Kisuke’s statement and both exclaimed, “That’s not just idiotic! It’s just plain brain-dead!”

“Ahahaha. You might be right, but the point here is Aika-chan have the right ingredient to become strong, given that she won’t give up.”

Koneko looked downcast and said, “I don’t have that kind of quality.”

“Don’t worry Koneko-chan. Although not as big as Aika here, you also have what it takes. Don’t you want to challenge your sister who is an SS-rank wanted criminal just by yourself? After reaching that goal, we can work to thrash those on top of Underworld who put a bounty on your sister.” Yoruichi patted Koneko’s head in consolement and also suggested something crazy.

Koneko’s eyes lit up and said, “Good idea.” Consenting to that crazy idea.
