Playing With Other Supernaturals

Volume 6 Chapter 304 - Negotiation Part 1

The sun already disappeared the light from the street lamps covered the whole Orario. Everyone is already ready with their casual clothes and is only waiting for Kisuke to come out.

After a few minutes, Kisuke came out with his usual attire of Shihakushou. With him is a cart with 50 one-liter bottles.

Pulling the cart, Kisuke arrived in front of everyone.

"What's that?" Yoruichi asked in curiosity.

"My merchandise~."

"Kisuke-senpai… We're going to eat and not sell your dubious products…" Koneko gave him a dubious look.

"No worries. I managed to land a deal with the proprietress of the pub. Since we can't exchange those magic stones for Valis, I have to sell something to support this Familia."

"And whose fault do you think it is that we can't trade the magic stones for money, nya?" Kuroka gave the culprit a mean look.

Ignoring this, Kisuke started walking, "Let's go~! We celebrate the establishment of our Familia~!"

Since it the celebration of her Familia, Hestia also became excited and immediately followed Kisuke, "I'm not going to hold back tonight~!"

They arrived at the Hostess of Fertility and Hestia abruptly stopped, "…Kisuke-kun, are we in the right place?"

"Hmm? Yeah."

"I know I said that I won't be holding back, but the food here is very expensive… A meal here is around 500 - 1,000 Valis and that doesn't include any liquor!"

"You don't have to worry about that Hestia-sama. We'll have enough money, and by chance we got none, we can just let Aika work there for a week or two." Kisuke replied with all seriousness.

"Why me!?"

Yoruichi dragged Hestia inside and ignored Aika. As if they agreed with it beforehand, everyone else also ignored her and entered the pub with merry faces, "I'll go get the most expensive wine, nya~!" Kuroka started.

"I heard seafood is a rare delicacy here… I'm going to try some lobsters. And of course, the most expensive wine." Yoruichi muttered.

"Rare fruits are a must, so I'm ordering deserts made from them." Sona also eyed something.

"I wonder how much I could eat while also processing all the food with Senjutsu…" Koneko did the same.

"Master has a food storage facility… I wonder how much take-out order I can request until this pub closure?" Medusa won't be outdone.

Hearing all of this, Aika snapped, "You bitches!"

"…They're joking, right?" Hestia asked Kisuke who's also watching this in amusement.

"Given a chance, they'll probably do it…"

"…Why do my worries about other Gods seem so insignificant?"

"Because it's insignificant…"

"I pity whoever God will challenge us for a War Game… Even if we lose the battle, I highly doubt they'll win the war…" Hestia finally realized it. Her children are all nuts. However, she started looking forward to the future more, 'How much upheaval will these children create? However, that itself looks fun.' Despite only meeting the crew recently, slowly but surely, Hestia is adapting.

"Kisuke! What are you selling!?" Aika faced Kisuke when the rest of the girls already entered the pub.

"Cola… Why?"

"Cola? Does that exist in this world?" She whispered to him.

"I couldn't find any records of it existing, at least."

"Great! How much are you going to sell this for?"

"Around 800 Valis each bottle?"

"So you don't have an exact number yet?"

"I'm going to go negotiate it with the proprietress and what we'll be getting is what we can spend on our celebration dinner."

"Wonderful! Leave the negotiation with me! If I don't gather enough money tonight, I'll probably be going to work for a long time here to pay-off the dept that those bitches will incur!"

"…Go ahead."

"Introduce me to the proprietress."

"…Follow me."

Kisuke, along with Hestia and the overly eager Aika, finally entered the establishment.

The first thing that Kisuke and Aika saw is their group ordering food as if there's no tomorrow and confusing the poor Cat person waitress. However, they also noticed Yoruichi watching Hestia as if waiting for something amusing to happen.

Hestia, on the other hand, immediately recognized an acquaintance, "Huh? Why is she here?"

Loki, on the other side with her top executives, also noticed Hestia and smiled, "Oh~. Looks who's here! Isn't this the poor chibi Goddess? I didn't expect to see you here. How many months worth pay will you spend tonight?"

Before she could respond in anger, Kisuke covered her mouth to prevent her, "Ah, fancy meeting you here, Loki-sama. Good evening~." With a flailing loli Goddess in his arms, he greeted Loki.

Loki smiled and responded in kind, "Yeah, good evening, uhmm…"

"Kisuke Urahara."

"Kisuke… It seems that you have more manners compared to that chibi."

Kisuke only chuckled in response. He can feel two different kinds of stare from Loki's companions. The first kind is curiosity which is coming from three girls who're accompanying Loki before and the rest were stares of wariness.

Kisuke then decided to ignore them for now and looked down to Hestia, who's still flailing, "Hestia-sama, please go with others first. Aika and I will follow you." Seeing her nodding despite the flames in her eyes, she let her go and she obediently went to Yoruichi and the rest without minding Loki which surprised her.

"Kid! Did you bring it?" A call came from the counter and Kisuke knew he's the one being called. He faced the direction of the counter and smiled, "I got some, Mia-san." He then started walking towards her and continued speaking, "However, she's the one who's going to negotiate the price." He then pointed to Aika who's following him.

The Loki Familia already finished what they want to talk about so when they heard someone is selling something to Mia, who they knew the real identity, it caught their interest and decided to watch them.

Getting the cue, Aika took out a pen and paper and wrote something before passing it to Mia.

Mia took a look at the paper, '10,000?' She then looked towards Aika who gave it to her.

Aika grinned and said, "The price for one bottle~!" Even Kisuke who saw it admired her guts, 'Even though I said 800 Valis per bottle is enough…'

Mia understood why she wrote the number since she also didn't want to everyone the price of something she'll be selling, "That's ridiculous, are you trying to rob me?" She then passed back the paper containing a new line, '1,000'. In this regard, Aika already succeeded. However, she knew that it isn't enough for her companions.

Not being discouraged by this, Aika started her barrage, "To create this Cola, a lot of advances and modern techniques are put into it. The first thing you need to do is creating carbonated water. To get carbonated water, carbon dioxide gas is dissolved in water at a low concentration of 0.2 - 1% which creates carbonic acid. This can be done in multiple ways, but we use the most advanced method of directly injecting the water with carbon dioxide within a controlled environment.

"The acid gives carbonated water a slightly tart flavor. This bite is caused by the acid when the carbon dioxide dissolves in the water and then reacts with it forming carbonic acid. Although this type of acid is weak, it is an essential part of the carbonation process and is how we get that fizziness and that bite we crave.

"And all of that just for the carbonated water which is only part of the long process to achieve this kind of taste!" Aika finished her narration and wrote another number on the paper, '9,900', 'Good thing I remembered those random articles on the internet.' She thought.
