Playing with other Supernaturals

Chapter 235 Aftermath 7/7

Originally founded with the purpose to create an opposing force to the growing alliances of mythologies, the Khaos Brigade was built as a cooperation between the Fallen Angel Satanael and the Wizards of Oz. At some point, it was handed to Ophis, the Dragon God of Infinity, who has the sole purpose of removing the Great Red, one of the most powerful Dragons in existence known as the True Dragon, out of the Dimensional Gap.

A few minutes later, few more people arrived, including Kuroka and Bikou who are looking at Ophis strangely, “It seems that everyone who will attend is here. Let’s start the meeting. The main agenda is about the Tri-Faction Alliance that is Azazel is proposing.” A young handsome looking man appearing in his early twenties with silver hair that is tied in a braided hairstyle spoke. He wears a silver robe with detailed accessories.

“Where is Rizevim?” A good looking man with black hair tied up in a small ponytail and violet eyes as the silver-haired man.

“Creuserey-sama, Rizevim-sama is currently busy with something and won’t be able to attend this time’s meeting.” Replied the silver-haired man.

“Tch! It’s always like this! He’s too busy to laze around! If he had joined us to fight the Anti-Satan Faction, we would have won! Euclid! You should ‘fix’ that master of yours!” Creuserey’s Demonic Power rose up and disturbed the surroundings. He always has hot blood for Rizevim, who is the strongest Devil among the Old-Satan Faction and didn’t participate in the Civil War against the Anti-Satan Faction led by Sirzechs Gremory.

Euclid only ignored him as he’s already used to his countless provocation.

“Stop this. We should be talking about the actions we should take against the leaders of the Three Factions.” A tall bespectacled woman with a voluptuous figure went in the middle of them to stop their fight. She had tan skin with long brown hair tied into a bun with a headset and she has blue-grey eyes.

“Katerea! Aren’t you upset about how he acted during the war!?” Creuserey then focused his anger on the fellow descendant of the Original Satans.

Katerea fixed her glasses and replied with a glare, “Of course I am. But what you’re doing is only wasting time. Instead of regretting the past, you should use your head to think of a way to deal with those fake Devil Kings.”

Creuserey gritted his teeth because he can’t say anything about that. Seeing this, Katerea ignored him and looked towards Kuroka and Bikou, “The Hero Faction isn’t here and there are only two from your group?”

“Vali is injured and the others are still on a certain mission for the organization,” Kuroka replied.

“I see.” Katerea looked away from them and addressed everyone in the hall, “We’ll discuss Vali being injured later. For now, we’ve confirmed that Azazel is indeed trying to initiate an alliance between the Three Factions. For this alliance to happen, leaders of each faction has to come together. I want to use this chance to take down those leaders.”

“Understood. Since you’re the one who initiated this meeting, we already figured that you do something yourself. But you must understand that we can’t focus all of our manpower for this as we still have a lot of things to do and we are already behind the schedule in some of them.” Euclid voiced out his thoughts.

“I know. I only need the participation of your magicians and Vali’s cooperation to deal with the barrier that would be placed. As for dealing with the leaders, I already have a plan.”

“Is that so… Then I’ll lend you some of the stray magicians. You can use them however you want.”

“Great.” Katerea looked back to Kuroka and Bikou, “Will Vali be able to do his work? We already planned this some time ago so I can’t have him back out now. He’s the biggest key bypass the barrier without notice.”

“No worries~. He’ll be up and running before you know it. His injury isn’t that big of a deal after all.” Kuroka lied through her teeth.

“Hmm? That’s not what I heard from the Fallen Angel spies… I heard that he almost got killed by an unknown individual.”

“The fact that they reported you the wrong diagnostics means that Vali successfully fooled you all.”

“Hooh… So you mean to say that unknown individual who is currently staying in the Kuoh Town isn’t that much of a threat? Why would Vali try to pretend to be hurt? And if he’s not really hurt, they why isn’t he here?”

“Does he have to? He already knows what to-” Kuroka, however, was interrupted in the midst of explaining, “You don’t have to explain it to her Kuroka.” Vali came walking from afar.

“…” Katerea and the rest of the people in the room stared at him for a while to check if he’s really healed, “Hmmm… Good. Now that you’re here, let’s discuss in detail what we have to do.”

For the next hour, they discussed how will they trap the leaders of the three factions and eventually freezes them in time using the hidden servant of Rias Gremory who holds the Sacred Gear ‘Forbidden Balor View’.

“Now that is out of the way, how should we deal with that unknown guy? Kisuke Urahara, was it? Even though Vali only pretended to be seriously injured, the fact that he was able to fool everyone means that he’s really injured to some extent. Am I right, Vali?” Katerea led the topic towards Kisuke.

“That is indeed the case,” Vali replied.

“Even though he isn’t as strong as the leaders, he could be a pain in the a$s, so we need someone to deal with him in case he gets involved.” Katerea then looked towards one of her underling who is a High-Class Devil and understood what she meant.

Not everyone could receive a ‘snake’ from Ophis. Only those who act as leaders can receive one and those who propose something to achieve her goal in the long run. As long as you can connect what you’re about to do to Great Red leaving the dimensional gap, Ophis will always and with certainty grant you the power to achieving it.

With that in mind, the High-Class Devil faced Ophis who is currently blankly staring forward, “Ouroboros Dragon-sama, please grant me the strength to remove this threat called Kisuke Urahara. Just like those in the Three Factions, he will stop us from achieving our ultimate goal of removing Great Red from the Dimensional Gap. If we don’t deal with him now, he will surely do something to impede us.”

Understanding what he is trying to do, two more High-Class Devil hurriedly stood up from Asmodeus and Beelzebub to ask for the same thing, “Ouroboros Dragon-sama, please grant us the strength to remove this threat. Since Vali Lucifer was injured, he would be a hard enemy without your blessing.”

They knew that the limit Ophis would grant her blessing is three for today. There was never the case that she granted more in the single day. If not, it wouldn’t only be these three that would ask for her blessing. The others who were a bit slower and still don’t have her blessing regretted and they couldn’t ask for the same reason even if she can grant another set of blessings tomorrow. That is Ophis’ unwritten rule. Despite how naive Ophis is, she never changed this rule.

Vali, Kuroka, and Bikou off to side didn’t do anything and only watch them. They wanted to know if Ophis will react differently since Kisuke Urahara apparently has a connection with her.

After a few seconds, Ophis silently lifted her hand and a magic circle in the form of infinity symbol emerged and three black snakes came out from it. The three High-Class Devils rejoiced after seeing this and the trio couldn’t believe what’s happening, ‘So she would give blessing to those who could help her remove Great Red from the Dimensional Gap even if it means you’re close to her?’ Vali thought.

The High-Class Devils already witness this sight multiple times so they already know what they need to do. Each one of them opened their mouths to receive the snakes. They knew that Ophis’ snakes would reside inside their stomachs to give them incredible power. And just as they expected, the snakes entered through their mouths and rested inside their stomachs.

The High-Class Devils then tried to feel their newfound powers, but even after a few seconds, nothing came to like how it is described by those who received her blessing. Even though who are watching were confused as they can’t feel any form of fluctuation of power from them. A few more seconds later, they finally felt something and they all smiled. But that smile only lasted for a fraction of a second before it turned into panic and then into despair.

The snakes sitting on their stomachs became active and started eating their intestines before moving towards their internal organs. The pain they’re feeling couldn’t be described as all of them started rolling on the ground screaming in despair. The snakes then drilled out of their stomachs and swallowed them whole from the outside before dispersing into black smoke.

Their gruesome death turned the hall into complete silence. A few seconds passed and the first one to break this silence is the initiator, Ophis. She stood up without minding everyone’s stare of horror and she dispersed into black smoke like her snakes. Ophis left the scene with a dumbfounded and horrified audience.

Vali, Kuroka, and Bikou were sweating bullets while thinking, ‘Who the hell is Kisuke Urahara!?’

They wouldn’t have believed that the right answer to their question is ‘Ophis’ doughnut keeper.’
