Volume 7 Chapter 413 – Progress

The next morning, Kisuke and Hephaestus had finally come out of the workshop after they had entered it more than a week ago.

“Whew~! We finally finished~!” Kisuke stretched out his limbs. Despite the grime and dirt all over his body and face, he was still wearing a large smile.

Opposite of Kisuke, Hephaestus still had a clean countenance and sighed while lifting her head, “Haah… I didn’t think we would do it all in one go.” But despite her complaining, she was also very happy with the result, “But with the framework done, we just need the materials and facilities to actually make these things.”

However, behind these happy feelings and accomplishments, Hephaestus was also feeling scared, ‘I couldn’t actually gauge his depth despite watching and being close to him for more than a week!’ Instead of seeing the entirety of his abilities, Hephaestus had fallen into the pit of suspicion as the veil of mystery that was hiding Kisuke actually became thicker and thicker the more she witnessed of his actions.

‘And that isn’t the most terrifying thing. I taught him blacksmithing because I thought he would need it, but I messed up and taught him almost everything since he learned everything almost instantly. Including those concepts which mortals find hard to understand! He even had different views on some of those concepts that helped me understand it better! He might already be the best blacksmith apprentice that I know and he hasn’t even forged a single weapon yet!’ Hephaestus wanted to shake her head but didn’t do so as Kisuke might notice what she was thinking.

‘What the heck… I’m the Goddess here. Why does it feel like he’s the one who could see through me and I can’t do it the other way around?’

Kisuke could actually see the complication in her mind but didn’t point it out, ‘Aizen could hide his thoughts a lot better. Well, she is the Goddess of Smithing and not the Goddess of Communication.’

The two of them went out and saw the girls hauling something in. It was 5 meters long and was covered in cloth, “Hey~! Welcome back~!” Kisuke first greeted the girls that came back from their exploration.

The three of them looked towards him and happily ran over giving him a group hug, “We’re back~!”

“Hey, hey, hey!” Yoruichi immediately protested, “It’s not just you who didn’t see him for over a week.”

Kisuke calmed them down and asked, “What’s that?”

“It’s something we got in our exploration,” Aika answered him while Medusa and Kuroka removed the clothing covering it revealing the giant black sword.

“It’s the drop item of Udaeus. Ais-san doesn’t have any real use for it so she gave it to us as payment for her upcoming debt as Riveria-san had suggested.” Sona answered him.

Kisuke approached the black sword with Hephaestus at the same time to inspect it. After a few minutes, they looked at each other and said, ” “This will do!” ”

“Oh? You’re about to start making those Sacred Gears?” Yoruichi asked.

“Yeah. We just need some more suitable materials to make it.” Kisuke answered.

“More than materials, we need a proper facility to forge these things,” Hephaestus said.

Kisuke stood up and faced her, “I’ll take care of that. It should be done within two days.”

The corner of Hephaestus eyelids twitched but she still answered, “I-Is that so? Then I’ll take care of some of the materials myself.”

Kisuke smiled happily and said, “I’m very grateful for that, but is that fine?”

Hephaestus nodded, “It’s fine. I also learned a lot of things this whole week and I’m interested in what we can actually make with the best materials we have.” Hephaestus looked around before asking, “Where’s Hestia?”

“She should be in the shop, Hephaestus-sama,” Medusa answered.

Hephaestus thanked her and faced Kisuke again, “I’ll be going to prepare the materials. I should be able to return in two days.” She bid her farewell to everyone and Medusa led her back to the surface.

Once he came out again, Medusa also came down with more guests. Riveria and Ais were following her while looking around with shocked faces. Although Riveria already came down here, back then, she was not herself and even though she was able to recover, she could only try her best to pretend to be calm. However, despite that, Kisuke, Loki, and Hestia still figured her out.

“Oh hey~, good morning Riveria-san, Wallenstein-san~.” Kisuke greeted them.

“O-oh… Good morning.” Riveria and Ais were slightly startled when Kisuke suddenly talked beside them. Feigning a cough, Riveria stated their purpose, “Ehem. I’m here as promised. First of all, I’d like you to take a look at Ais if there are any problems with her.”

“Sure, I’ll do that. I also already received my advance payment. However, there are things that must be done first.”

Riveria nodded at Kisuke’s words, “I know. I already talked about it with Ais last night.” She then faced Ais.

Ais also nodded at Riveria and she raised her right hand, “I hereby swear to my Falna that I’ll keep everything about the Hestia Familia secret unless I’m permitted by Kisuke Urahara to tell others about it.”

“Very well.” Kisuke then took out a white small pill from his pocket and gave it to Ais, “This is a sleeping pill and once you take it, you’ll lose your consciousness for about 5 hours. Just enough to finish examining everything.”

Riveria frowned and didn’t like that, “Wait. Why does she have to be unconscious? Can’t you do it without doing that?”

“I can. But there are certain tests that require her to sleep so it can be properly diagnosed. And on top of that, there are some things in my laboratory that I wouldn’t want to show to anyone. Let’s be honest, even though you swear that you won’t reveal anything, there are still loopholes in that and I can’t take my chances for my important equipment even if someone who was to see it doesn’t know what it does.”

Riveria didn’t answer immediately and contemplated his words. She, after all, didn’t want to compromise Ais’s safety. But while she was pondering on her choices, a hand landed on her shoulder and Riveria turned to that person.

“I’ll accept it,” Ais said with a resolute face.

“But…”

“I’ll be fine, Riveria.”

‘Just where are you getting that confidence?’ Riveria thought when Yoruichi supplemented Ais’s decision, “You can trust Kisuke. He won’t harm your friend.”

“I promise that I won’t do anything to her body aside from examining it,” Kisuke said. Yoruichi instantly caught the loophole in his words and probably his real goal but didn’t react to it or anything.

However, Riveria is actually a bit worried about another aspect, “But you’re a man.”

Kisuke’s eyes widened and suddenly laughed out loud before stopping and faced Riveria with a nasty smile, “Once inside my laboratory, being a man or a woman is just another set of data. Nothing more.”

Riveria and Ais suddenly felt chills at his words. They knew he was telling the truth somehow, but that didn’t make them feel at ease at all.

Ais then took a deep breath and suddenly swallowed the pill, wanting to get over it. She then fell forward as she lost her consciousness within seconds later. Riveria immediately caught her with a complicated expression.

Kisuke and Yoruichi felt some admiration at her swift decision but it could be also attributed to her recklessness, “Must be hard on you.” Kisuke muttered to Riveria.

“I’m already used to it. This is the reason why I can’t leave her alone.” Riveria replied.

“Yoruichi. Please take her to the lab. I still need to prepare some things. Riveria-san, please join the others while you wait. They should be able to entertain you.” Kisuke then walked away.

This time in the Editor corner:

And Author’s… Please don’t forget the Author:

Alexander: Your loyal host for today. The King of all Mad Scientists/Perverts. Let the fun begin.

28th00: I gotta wonder how Orario is feeling about a bunch of no-names (literally) level 2’s dragging a big ass buster sword through the middle of town that they know is the level 37 Monster Rex’s weapon. I really gotta wonder…

Garan: Probably Thinking where the hell they steal that from can I steal one too or eh normal day in Orario as no one knows they are Level 2’s except the Gods and Goddess’ and Loki famila most would think they were a high level out of town adventurer

Goyya: Well, everyone one would think that they’re just some supporters hired by the two.
