Volume 9 Chapter 559 - A Fan

Concluding that they wouldn't be able to continue their attack anymore due to Gasper slowly but surely culling their numbers, the remaining Magicians decided to retreat and escape through teleportation circles.

Everyone from the Occult Research Club and Student Council should have been able to sigh in relief after their enemies retreated, however, Gasper was still out for blood and searching for more Magicians.

At the same time, a strange teleportation circle appeared before a small Grim Reaper appeared from it, "Tsubaki-san! The Magicians started retreating so I returned here… Whoa! What's that!?"

The small Grim Reaper thought that the darkness was an enemy and readied her scythe.

"Bennia! Stop! That's Gasper!" Tsubaki shouted at her.

"What? The Dhampir? How?" asked the small Grim Reaper. It was also at that time that she noticed the new person, "…You are…"

Kisuke looked at her with a surprised expression and murmured, "A Grim Reaper? Now that's a surprising new character~"

However, before he could even greet her since she was looking right at him, the small Grim Reaper suddenly removed her skull mask and shouted at him, "B-Boss Hat!"

The small Grim Reaper had the appearance of a little girl with pale skin. She was a cute girl with long, dark purple hair and sleepy golden eyes. Her hair was tied in a long braid by a bow with a purple skull, reaching all the way down to her hips. Bennia also had 3 black markings on both her thighs while also having gold neon lines in its interior.

She wore a white skull mask in conjunction with her Grim Reaper clothing, which consisted of a light blue dress and a black and white hood resembling a jesters cap with an emerald gem at the tip. She also wore black elbow-length gloves covered in gold neon lines with gems at the back of her wrists.

"I've been called a lot of things in the past, but this the first time someone's called me 'Boss Hat'," Kisuke chuckled, "Nice to meet you, Grim Reaper-san. The name's Kisuke Urahara, not 'Boss Hat'."

As if not listening to him at all, the small Grim Reaper also introduced herself, "Nice to meet you, Boss Hat! I'm Bennia Orcus! I'm a fan! Please shake my hands! If possible, a signature too!"

'A fan, huh… How did I become a celebrity again?' Kisuke thought as he shook his head, "Now's not the time Bennia-san. See that?" pointed Kisuke at the darkness, "I've still got to deal with that."

With eyes filled with light and excitement, Bennia replied, "I see! Boss Hat is about to make his move again! Please go ahead and don't mind me!"

Kisuke's first impression of Bennia was that of a very upbeat and lively girl, much different from most of the cold Grim Reapers that he'd met before.

Thanks to him talking to Bennia, the rest of the students finally arrived around him and the first one to call out was Irina, "What happened to him, Kisuke?"

"He just lost himself for a moment. I'm going to bring him back," replied Kisuke as he approached the darkness that was still expanding in search of its prey.

The moment Kisuke approached him, the darkness also extended towards him, but instead of defending himself, Kisuke let the darkness wrap around his arm, 'Hmm… Breaking it into pieces before bringing it to another space, huh. If one doesn't have enough Magic or Ki, one won't be able to resist this. Though I wonder what it can do with the things it has 'eaten'.'

Shaking off the darkness, Kisuke dived and pierced through the darkness and brought out the rampaging dhampir, "I'M GOING TO KILL ALL OF YOU!!!"

Kisuke didn't say anything and removed the hypnosis magic that he'd put on him and used healing Kidou to calm his raging soul and separate it from the influence of his Sacred Gear.

A few seconds later, Gasper settled down and the light within his eyes returned, "…W-what?"

"Good morning~. Did you enjoy that nightmare?" asked Kisuke with a grin.

"…Nightmare? What happened?" Gasper held his aching head and recalled what happened. When he was about to start rampaging again, he saw the rest of his comrades running towards him, including Asia and Xenovia in good health, "Asia-senpai…? Xenovia-senpai…?"

Kisuke let him down and Gasper started running towards them with tears gushing down on his pretty face, "Asia-senpai!!! Xenovia-senpai!!! You're alive!!!"

Asia and Xenovia were taken aback when Gasper came crying to them, but Asia recalled Kisuke's words from earlier and figured that he must have seen something terrible and comforted him, "It's alright… Everything is already fine."

"What's going on?" asked Xenovia to Asia but the latter only smiled at her.

Kisuke then looked towards a certain direction and muttered, "He's back."

A teleportation circle then appeared and Issei, in his Balance Breaker emerged from it, "Everyone! Are you alright!? Wait… Kisuke? You're here too?"

"Yup~. For now, let's all calm down and drink some tea in a nice room," Kisuke proposed.

Half an hour later, Kisuke heard everything from Issei, "In summary, you were in a meeting with this Mephisto Pheles for the Magician that can enter a contract with you and he also warned you about the circulating imitation of the Phoenix Tear's. Although it can heal, not as much as the original and those after its completion might target Ravel-san here."

"Yes." Issei nodded, "So I immediately made some arrangements to keep her safe since Rias, Yuuto and Azazel-sensei left for Romania to negotiate with the vampires. I just knew that if they wanted to attack, this would be a good time. I just didn't expect that they'd be targeting Gasper too."

"There's something I also need to report to the Underworld and Rias. The man who led the Magicians inside of Kuoh Town, Euclid Lucifuge… Claimed that he's Grayfia-san's younger brother."

The Devils were shocked at Issei's revelation and questioned him about it. However, Issei just shook his head and said that he wasn't even sure if that guy is really telling the truth. Though he admitted that he had an uncanny resemblance to Grayfia.

"Another point of concern is the Evil Dragon that was with him. Ddraig told me his name is Grendel, also known as the Crime Force Dragon. He's an aggressive, psychotic Dragon that is only interested in fighting and killing. He's a battle maniac who loves physical combat and destroying more than anything. However, Ddraig also pointed out that he was already slain long ago and shouldn't be roaming the world right now."

Only Tsubaki, Akeno, Rossweisse, and Kisuke got the implication within Issei's words, "I see… Someone or something was able to revive a long-dead Evil Dragon. Then it's safe to assume that there are also other Evil Dragons or some other beings revived to work for the Khaos Brigade." Kisuke made it clear to everyone and made them shudder.

Issei sighed, "I can't even defeat this Grendel… He had seemingly unlimited stamina. He and Euclid only retreated because Vali was apparently giving them some headaches in some other place." Issei then stood up and added, "I have to make a report to Sirzechs-sama first."

"Go on. I'll talk to you later." Kisuke nodded at him.

As Issei tried to leave the room, Ravel also followed him, "I'll come with you! I also need to contact my House."

"He sure has grown, huh," muttered Kisuke with a smile of satisfaction before turning his attention to everyone else, "Now then, since I've got some free time, let's go over and review your fight from earlier."

Kisuke was about to give them the lecture of their life.

Editors:

28th00: On the plus side, it's nice to see Issei has grown so much and is actually getting the political ramifications of some of the stuff going on, including timely reports on paradigm shifts. Kisuke is gonna tear them apart while in Lecture Mode, but it's gonna be a massive plus since this guy is a veteran at training people, somewhat. They usually call it torture, but what do they know?! Boss Hat Bennia? Man, I can't remember but I think she was there when Kisuke went to beat up Hades. She's always a joy, loli reaper fangirl that she is. Sona ain't here to recruit her, but she's definitely hanging around cause she's a hardcore fangirl.
