Playing with other Supernaturals

Chapter 176 Not in the Plan

“Medusa was spotted along with a Human man!” A man came in from the outside world reported.

“Finally? Where is she? You guys! Let’s go and get her before she escapes again!” Dennis asks and commanded his subordinates simultaneously.

The same man hesitated for a bit before saying, “Sir, we’re sure that she’s Medusa due to the aura she is emitting, but there’s something wrong with her…”

Dennis, along with the other three furrowed their brows, confused at why this guy is fidgeting while reporting. “What’s wrong?”

He stayed silent for a moment as he’s still trying to recall what he just saw, thinking if it’s real, “She’s dressed in a maid uniform…”

“What…?” Dennis blankly asked. Their minds started running at full capacity trying to guess the monster’s intention of doing so.

He knew that it’ll hard for them to believe his words because even with the long record of hunting Medusa, this has never happened before, “It’s true! And most importantly, she isn’t wearing a blindfold but a pair of glasses instead!”

” “What!?” ” Along with his words, Dennis and Theodore stood up in shock. It’s understandable since never in their records Medusa revealed her eyes after her first beheading. And, indeed, Medusa never revealed it again due to her hate for it and strange reluctance to use it.

Elexa and Petter were also shocked at his revelation but calmer compared to the two.

Theodore calmed himself and thought for a bit and asks, “What about the man with her? What’s up with him?”

“Sir… We don’t know anything about him. All we can tell is that Medusa seems to follow his directions…”

Theodore, Dennis, and Petter now are making ugly faces. They couldn’t imagine someone like Medusa would follow someone, a human man at that. It’s pretty well known in their clan that Medusa, along with her sisters, has abnormal hate for men.

The man has nothing else to report, so he stepped aside to let these young masters think of their next course of action.

After a few minutes, another man entered the space and reported, “I’m here for another report! We wanted to pressure Medusa along with the man, but he suddenly changed his appearance and wore a white bone mask with green markings and pressured all of us instead! We judged that even if all of us who are outside goes against him, we wouldn’t stand a chance!”

‘Where did this guy came from? What’s his goal? Why is he helping that monster? He is pretty strong, alright… But all of those stationed outside are the weakest of the clan. Even I could do something like that easily.’ Theodore thought to himself and eyed Petter to gauge his reaction. He can tell that he’s a bit shock at this development, but returned to his normal demeanor. But seeing this, Theodore’s suspicion grew… Petter is giving him a feeling that he doesn’t want to get involved in this, but he’s the one you set all of this up, including asking Athena to use this place. Theodore then transferred his sight to Elexa. As he expected, she’s still concerned about Medusa. Although Elexa is the one closest to him if it’s compared to his other cousins, she’s also the weirdest as sometimes, she would give him a completely different feeling… as if she’s a different person from time to time.

Shaking the unnecessary thoughts off, Theodore focused on the said man accompanying Medusa, “Where are they now?”

“… They are coming straight here.”

“Hooh? If that’s true, I don’t care if Medusa’s eyes were relieved or some unknown guy is wiping her ass for her, they’ll both die here.” Dennis looked at Theodore but the latter didn’t react to his words, ‘Heeh… Your confidence will be your downfall. You all thought that the poison is the only secret of our House? I’ll ‘accidentally’ cut your head along with that monster later.’

After a few seconds, Dennis and Theodore both noticed that Elexa has been strangely quiet. Normally, if Dennis started saying something like that in front of her, she’ll refute his words immediately, but they only saw her look of concern while looking at the point where people appear after they are teleported inside.

‘Big sister… I wish you luck on saving them… I hope you succeed.’ Elexa earnestly thought, ignoring the words of her cousins.

“Dennis! Don’t f*ck this up!” From the audience’s stand, the old man in the middle of the members of the House of Harpe shouted.

Clenching his teeth and fist, Dennis answered, “I won’t let you down, father!”

“Theodore! I know you want to get the seat of the Clan Head for our House and late father… But don’t risk your life for something like this…” Instead of shouting like the old man, the lady from the House of Flight, Theodore’s mother sent a telepathic message to her son.

“…Got it, mother. I know what to do.” Theodore replied the same way and his expression became serious. Like Theodore, his mother noticed something unusual. They feel that this won’t end with just the competition for the Clan Head, though they can’t tell where the bad feeling is coming from.

Everyone inside became busy as they prepare for the incoming monster. After their preparations, they waited for a few minutes before the magic circle coming from the outside lit up. Everyone on the audience’s stand drew their weapons and kept quiet, but instead of the anticipated Medusa and the unknown man, five balls of paper appeared which put a question mark on everyone’s head.

A second later, the balls lit up in white light. Petter and Theodore, with the sharpest instinct in the crowd, yelled, “Get down!!!”

A large explosion that shook the entire space came. Strangely though, it didn’t do any damage beyond a meter of the balls and it just spread a cloud of yellow smoke.

The smoke immediately spread throughout the arena and the people started cursing. The loudest of them all is Dennis, “*Cough* *Cough* What the f*ck!!! What the hell is this!!! Smells like fart!!!”

The bomb is actually a smoke bomb that spreads nasty smell.

Everyone who can block the sense of smell immediately did it with the use of magic. But they underestimated the stink bomb, as the nasty smelly fart actually went through their barriers and directly assaulted their sense of smell. Even if they physically cover their nose or even if they stopped breathing altogether, they could still smell the strange fart. Truly a horrifying weapon of mass discomfort. The one who made it is a genius without equal, but he used his smarts in such a nasty thing.

Everyone thought that they should evacuate the place as there are no winds to blow away the bad air, but soon after, they noticed that the smell is slowly disappearing along with the yellow smoke. After a few more minutes, it disappeared entirely as if it’s all just a bad dream. Although there are still lingering smell, it’s a lot better than the saturated smell of doom.

Everyone felt relieved except for four people, Petter, Theodore, Theodore’s mother and the cloaked figure in the House of Shield. They all thought that if the enemy is capable of sending something like that despite the restrictions on the magic circle, then it’s also entirely possible that they could just send a nuke to kill them all without even being able to retaliate. Cold sweat started to flow from their backs.

A few seconds later, the magic circle lit up again and everyone felt scared of another round of stink bombs and prepared to obliterate it with magic before it can even explode.

To their relief, no stick bomb appeared but a man with a white bone mask wearing a black suit along with their target, who is wearing a maid uniform, Medusa. They all stared at them blankly until the man spoke up, “Nice to me-… Damn! Who the hell just farted!? And this smell? Whoever you are, a suggest you go see a doctor! You’re probably constipated for a few years now! Or maybe this is how you welcome your guests? Is this a cultural thing? Quite unique… and smelly if I were to word it nicely.”

Dennis instantly reacted and pulled out his rapier, “You bastard!!!”

The masked man blackened eyes opened wide and said, “So you’re the constipated guy. You can die from that you know~.”
