Playing With Other Supernaturals

Chapter 1311 Strange Request part 2

In a random empty asteroid in a distant star system, Yoruichi was sleeping in a small place that she made habitable. The moment her terminal rang, she instantly opened her eyes and checked it, "She contacted me way sooner than I expected... I just tossed out a bit of bait yet they're inviting me this early? Is it a trap or are they just this desperate?"

She knew that Kisuke was a 'successor' of Stralit Luxeux and that a strange relationship had connected the two of them. Also thanks to Seraselbes, she was able to easily gather information about her and even managed to solicit her help to stop the Evies from fully puncturing the Draconic Deus' barrier.

'Though because of that, she received a disciplinary action.' Yoruichi thought to herself before thinking back to the day the Luxeux Matriarch's aide suddenly asked for Benihime's information, 'Stralit's disappearance coincides with the strange incident in their home world. And now they're asking about Benihime? I was just shooting in the dark, but it really turned out that her disappearance had something to do with Benihime.'

She wanted to ask Kisuke about it, but she couldn't really contact anyone in the Draconic Deus this far out. Furthermore, Kisuke didn't warn her about this so it's either he doesn't have any idea that this happened or he can't relay this information to anyone.

Yoruichi stood up and stretched her limbs, "Either way, I'll finally get some clue on the bastard who hurt Koneko-chan." She then replied to the message she received and warned them not to do anything funny if they wanted a smooth trade.

Yoruichi arrived at a designated point within the home planet of the Luxeux Clan, Lux, a planet covered with golden shimmer. But instead of her real appearance, Yoruichi arrived with her Pamatypian disguise, dull white hair, rough gray skin, and slightly altered face while wearing a standard skin-tight combat outfit.

"Welcome, miss Yoru." In front of her is Adrenna wearing a similar combat outfit as Yoruichi.

"Miss Enna. It has been a while." Yoruichi greeted her back with a smile, "And I certainly didn't expect you to call me this soon. Is it alright for me to assume that your master agreed to my condition?"

"You may call me Adrenna here and yes, my mistress agreed to your condition." Adrenna replied while narrowing her eyes, "But before that, may I ask why you wanted to see the sword?"

Yoruichi smiled fearlessly, "Will answering that change how you treat me?"

Adrenna was silent for a short moment before saying, "...Please follow me." She turned around and started walking away. What they need right now is more information about the sword, 'I can't risk being hostile with her now... But if she tries to take young lady Stralit as hostage...'

Although Adrenna managed to calm herself in time, Yoruichi still noticed the slight bloodlust that momentarily leaked out from her, 'Looks like the situation on their side is not that good.' She followed her while being mindful of her surroundings and prepared the escape capsule that Seraselbes gave her.

It might reveal her affiliation with the Evies, but it's a lot better than dying or being trapped.

They were walking for a few minutes and Yoruichi thought that they'd be going at this pace for a few hours when all of a sudden, Adrenna who was in front of her suddenly disappeared, melding into an invisible wall, "!?"

Yoruichi stopped and looked around. Even after knowing the existence of the barrier, she still couldn't sense it, 'What's this? How come I can't feel anything?' She was very tempted to take out her equipment to take a closer look at her surroundings but ultimately decided against it and walked forward.

As soon as she hit the barrier, her surroundings instantly changed and she was now within a pitch-black environment that further confused her senses.

Yoruichi was glad that there was no hostile intent but she further put up her guard.

"Please walk forward and do not deviate anywhere. This is our security measure." Yoruichi heard Adrenna's voice but she couldn't point out where it was coming from or how far she was.

Yoruichi hesitated for a moment before taking a step forward. Five minutes into the well-paced movement, her surroundings cleared up and the darkness receded behind her. When she turned around, she saw a pitch-black hallway and she had a feeling that she wouldn't be able to exit this place by retracing her steps.

"My safety is now in your hands, huh..." Yoruichi muttered while turning back to Adrenna who was waiting in front of a big metallic door.

It wasn't just Adrenna but also Corvina who was waiting on the other side, watching the former guide and their guest, was surprised.

"...You can read the flow of Spiritual Power? Are you perhaps a successor of one of the sensory-type clans?" Even though Adrenna asked, she already knew the answers. It's obvious that she could read the flow of Spiritual Power or else, she won't be able to tell that she won't be able to come out the same way they came in. As for the latter question, it's a no because there's no indication that she's a 'successor'.

As someone working for the Luxeux Matriarch, she was taught how to differentiate all the successors from other Etouldes.

Yoruichi smiled but didn't give an answer.

Adrenna sighed and opened the door. Since it's not a big room, it was immediately revealed to Yoruichi what's happening. She ignored the veiled person and muttered out loud, "That looks pretty bad."

"Bad? What do you mean?" Adrenna hurriedly asked but Yoruichi ignored her and walked towards the unconscious Stralit and the mannequin.

Adrenna tried to stop her but Corvina gestured for her to stand down.

Yoruichi took her steps until she was at the same distance as when Corvina was about to get affected by the cuts and stitches. She stared at Stralit for a moment before turning towards the veiled woman and asked, "What happened here? If possible, I'd like to know every single detail to give this girl a better chance to live."

Adrenna looked into Corvina's eyes and the latter just nodded her head. The former then approached Yoruichi with her terminal and showed her the only surviving record of the scene of the court that day.

The whole video isn't even a minute long but it was shocking nonetheless.

Yoruichi contemplated for a bit before turning towards the mannequin and speaking in Japanese, "How long can the girl last?"

Corvina and Adrenna were surprised but thankfully, they already installed several languages that originated from Draconic Deus to their auto translator in anticipation that they'd have to talk to one of its natives.

The surprise, however, didn't end there as the mannequin they thought couldn't reply, responded back, "Around a week before her Spiritual Power is completely depleted."

"Will she be alright by then?"

"I'm hoping that she will, but I don't really like working on such a tight margin."

"Give me a number here."

"One out of a hundred. I overestimated her adaptability."

Yoruichi clicked her tongue, "That's not just a tight margin..." She muttered until she found something strange in Benihime's words, "Wait, adaptability? You're not expelling it?"

"Thanks to my and Kisuke's utilization of her [Shadow], Ichibei's power has been tightly woven into her soul which is the source of her ability, so much that it became impossible to separate the two."

'What the hell are these two doing?' Yoruichi was speechless. She has so many questions like how Ichibei reached this place and how Stralit used his [Naming] ability. However, this isn't the time for that right now, "What do you need?"

"The White Bone Hell if possible, but the hot spring in Kisuke's hideout would suffice. If I can get away from removing impurities from her, I would be able to focus on adjustments."

Yoruichi started rubbing her chin and muttered under her breath, "White Bone Hell, huh... Even with obfuscators, it would be suicidal to transport that through Etoulde territories."

"I will allow you to use my secret channel to bring whatever you need."

Yoruichi was pulled out of her thinking and turned to the source of the voice, the veiled woman.

"I can guarantee your secrecy and security."
