Playing With Other Supernaturals

Chapter 1129 [Combat] Test

The tall man smirked at Yoruichi for a second before bringing his right arm forward and tapping the bangle he was wearing similar to Yoruichi's. The next moment, the man's whole body except for his head lit up. As soon as that flashy light disappeared, Yoruichi saw that the man was now wearing sleek metal plates that covered his vitals.

In his hands was a short sword that had dangerous light running through its blade and what seemed to be a gun, but Yoruichi was not quite sure.

The man then pointed the tip of his sword at her and arrogantly declared, "Pamatypian, I don't care how good you are in close-quarter combat. It is your unlucky day to face me within this kind of environment."

Seemingly not needing a response from his opponent, the man turned to the receptionist, Gwenn, and said, "It seems that this will be finished earlier than I have expected. Would you mind having dinner with me? I'll treat you to a good place."

Gwenn scowled with disgust, "Shut up. Less talking and more fighting. I don't have the whole day to listen to your nonsense."

Yoruichi, on the other hand, didn't get angry at his actions. In fact, she felt happy. It's exactly this type of person that she doesn't mind beating and etching fear directly into their skull.

But as soon as her mind went into a violent place and got ready to fight, Yoruichi shuddered as she felt a very intruding gaze looking into her. She immediately jumped back, away from the gaze's direction, and saw the receptionist taking care of her looking at her with her now glistening red eyes and a shocked expression.

The next instant, Yoruichi realized that her hand was already on her blade's handle, ready to be pulled out, 'That was close! I almost released the seal on my Reiatsu-Ki!'

Yoruichi immediately checked if she made the irreversible mistake and sighed in relief when she found out that the seal is still completely intact, 'But what was that gaze? She didn't discover my Spiritual Power, did she?' She asked herself while glaring at the shocked receptionist whose eyes already returned to her normally dark red eyes.

The shocked receptionist got hold of herself and returned her expression to a neutral one, slightly angry even, and recalled the scene from earlier.

The moment Yoruichi got into the mood of fighting, the invisible aura and her general demeanor immediately changed which prompted interest from Gwenn. Enough interest that she ended up using her ability to 'see through the world' and what she saw shocked her so that she blanked out for a moment, 'The quality of her Magic Power and Ki are both top-notch... But a very large portion of herself is nothing?' It was then that she recalled some sealing techniques that would limit one's energy levels and thought Yoru had the same.

'But even considering a large portion of her strength sealed, her demeanor that she showed proved that she's a veteran on the battlefield and one that has already claimed many lives before.'

Gwenn's curiosity was further piqued as she realized that she severely underestimated the Pamatypian. She's very confident in how she judged people even without using her unique ability, and in fact, that skill of hers was very well known within high society and very sought after as it was a very good tool to expand one's influence and discover unknown talents. And due to her not being an heir to her clan, so many people have already approached her with so many invitations to their group or marriage proposals that she'd gotten so fed up with all of it that she had to escape from it.

There were only a handful of people who could escape her eyes and those were, regardless of their strength, very dangerous individuals.

Gwenn calmed down and looked at Yoru who jumped back and was ready to attack, 'And she even noticed my gaze too... There's no way that idiot can win.'

She then turned to the proud man and said, "You said you want to treat me to dinner?"

The moment Yoru's opponent heard her words, he calmly nodded, "Of course. I'll bring you to the most amazing place I know that's unknown to most." However, his tone of glee and sickeningly sweet voice betrayed his act of calm.

Gwenn grinned at him, ignoring his act, and said, "Fine. But only if you can defeat her. Not just that, I'd recommend you to receive enough rating to promote you to high-tier in [Combat] category."

The man forgot the expression he was making and asked her, dumbfounded, "Are you serious?"

"You have my word. And I think you know enough to guess the weight of those words."

The man froze for a moment before he started giggling to himself, "Kuhuhuhu... It's really your unlucky day, Pamatypian. My chance has arrived so I won't be holding back anymore."

The clueless man didn't have enough skill nor senses to even detect any abnormality between the two, not to mention, the change in his opponent's demeanor.

Yoruichi didn't even say anything because she wanted to maintain her quiet attitude and just watched this man repeatedly declare himself as the winner. But more than that, she was more curious about the receptionist, 'She was able to gauge my ability instantly? But just how much did she see?'

Nevertheless, Yoruichi became sure of a few things. Even though it was just for a short moment, her eyes glinted with Spiritual Power so she's either a successor or an Etoulde. She was not able to detect her sealed Reiatsu-Ki. If she did, she wouldn't be as calm as she is now. After all, not just from Kisuke, but she also was able to confirm from Seraselbes that the appearance of someone who could effectively control their Spiritual Power and derive an ability from it was a very big deal for both the Etouldes and Evies.

It's also the reason why Seraselbes personally knew Kisuke and Yoruichi's appearances and names. Aside from them and their group, she only knew Issei's name due to her connection to the Etouldes and the rest was only a handful of Gods and Dragons.

Yoruichi immediately stopped entertaining these thoughts when her opponent suddenly moved and stepped backward. And as soon as he took his second step, Magic Power converged around him before his figure was entirely erased from her sight.

"..." Yoruichi wondered what she should do when a ball of highly concentrated Magic Power that contained enough power to easily blast a hole through a high-ranking Devil came rushing towards her at a speed that was undetectable by most people from her left that was aimed at her head.

Sadly for the man, 'Yoru' is not among those 'most people', as she just leaned back to dodge the bullet. The bullet missed and hit the giant tree beside her but it only created a few inches deep holes in it, 'That's some sturdy tree. He said the Great Forest of Sector 6, didn't he? I should go there and collect a few logs.'

The first bullet was just the start as more of them rained down on Yoruichi from all directions. However, Yoruichi just dodged all of them with ease.

"Hooh? Your senses are better than I thought."

Yoruichi heard her opponent's voice to her upper right and instantly made a mad dash toward it. After a few dashes and zigzags through trunks and branches, she threw a punch to a certain spot and hit something invisible.

Taken out of his stealth, the man reappeared with Yoruichi's fist in his stomach. But as soon as he appeared, he also disappeared as fast with a puff of smoke as if he was just a mirage, "But I can't say the same for your smarts." Yoruichi heard the man's condescending voice behind her while a blade was coming for her left shoulder.

The man was grinning wildly since he could finally see himself stepping into the high tier and receiving more lucrative jobs and offers. But more than that, what he wanted the most was the prestige of the high-tier brings, 'Finally... After working so hard for a long time.'

But as soon as his shining sword touched his opponent, it went through without any resistance as she too disappeared like a smoke, 'Huh?'

The next instant, he heard the voice of the Pamatypian for the first time, "Too obvious." Before receiving a massive blow to his flank, sending him crashing and bouncing between the trees.
