Chapter 1007 Change of Plans part 2

Kisuke spent just over a day reaching the final Space Gate to return. But before he stepped into it, he first returned to his original body to inform those on Earth of what he'd heard from Seraselbes, 'It's going to be complicated since this is most likely funded by some big factions. I can only hope that they'll be able to slow down their entry and secure the foundation of the barrier.'

Since they went through some Summoning Magic, Kisuke knew that there was a limit to how much they could send inside and any strong Evie won't be able to go through it due to their 'size'. However, it also means that they'll try to take the barrier down from the inside and once that happens, it'll be an all-out war.

"You're back. Sooner than I expected. How did it go?" Stralit asked when she felt Kisuke entering her shadow.

Kisuke didn't say anything and passed the cubes that Seraselbes gave him.

Stralit inspected the cubes before inserting them into the console in her room. It took her around half an hour to get all the information that she needed and immediately destroyed the cubes with a deep frown on her face.

"Is something wrong?"

Instead of answering, however, Stralit asked back, "Did she say anything else?"

"She told me that you're in danger?"

"She did?" Stralit's eyes widened, "She's trusting you? Just what did you do?"

Kisuke shrugged his shoulders and feigned ignorance, "I don't know. I simply passed her what you wanted her to receive. That's all."

"...Did she introduce herself to you?"

Without any pause, Kisuke answered, "After I introduced myself, she also told me her name. Is something wrong with that? Is there some sort of spell that automatically activates when I hear her name?"

Stralit stared at him for a few moments before shaking her head, "No. There's nothing like that. I'm just a bit surprised. But you better keep her name a secret because it'll only land you in trouble, especially in the territories controlled by us." She then returned to her console to work on something while muttering to herself, "I really don't know what she's thinking this time around."

While changing back to his usual clothes behind a small curtain, Kisuke asked, "What exactly is putting you in danger?"

Only the sound of keys being pressed was heard for a minute or two until Stralit answered, "I guess this might involve you too so it's better if you know. An unknown Etoulde is working with the Evies and Abtors so it's safe to assume that most of what I do and my schedule were already leaked to them."

Kisuke came out with his usual green shihakusho and added, "And there are probably a few Luxatos working with them. With that kind of lineup, no matter how careful you are, they'll catch you off guard sooner or later."

Stralit stopped her hands and there was a complicated expression displayed on her face. She didn't want to believe Kisuke's assumption but she was not naive to think that everyone besides her meant well, 'But as much as I want to weed them out, I have no way of finding them.'

Kisuke was able to guess what she was thinking and said, "This is where I come in, right? Although I learned that shadow technique from you to safely traverse the Space Gates, it can also be used to find those in the dark and no one would really bat an eye if I disappeared for long periods of time."

"That's too dangerous since they know my ability. They could have something that could easily find even me."

"But you should be able to tell when they use something like that, right?"

Stralit thought about it for a moment before answering, "This is the special ability of my clan so anything that could detect it, we would be able to detect it too."

'Right. Your ability doesn't allow you to control or hide within shadows but put the shadows themselves within your dominion. Any changes or fluctuations made in it would be noticeable unless you come across someone with an unreasonable ability like 'Complete Hypnosis'.'

"The problem is, we don't know how many of them are out there. They'll surely use a sacrificial pawn just to find me and all I would be able to do is to send that one guy to jail, cutting off any further leads. Any wrong move and I'll fall for their trap." Stralit added.

"Then that would mean that as long as you're within their sights, they won't use something that would incriminate them."

After thinking about Kisuke's proposal long and hard, Stralit finally agreed to it, "Fine, but I'm giving you a distress call device and you shouldn't hesitate to use it."

"Then I would like to do something to keep us connected."

Stralit tilted her head at him and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"Since you shared your ability, it's only fair that I also share with you what I know." Kisuke approached her and jumped to her shoulder, "If you feel it's something threatening or bad, you may reject it while or after I'm done."

Stralit wanted to ask more about what he wanted to do but Kisuke didn't let her do so as a mix of Spiritual Power and Magic Power formed a 'brand' on her forehead, 'With that, the Le Fay's Teleportation Magic should be set as long as she doesn't erase that mark.'

Stralit touched the Magic Circle that had already disappeared and asked, "What was that?"

Kisuke didn't explain but instead sent a telepathic message [For something like this. As you can see, there's no fluctuation of the usual Telepathy Magic so it's a safe way to communicate even at long distances. I think this will be better than your distress signal since I can instantly send a call as long as I'm conscious.]

Kisuke spent three days stalking Stralit's subordinates and found at least ten suspicious people with enough evidence gathered. But catching ten people is not good news for Stralit at all since all of them were caught while being careless and that would mean that they're comfortable enough to let their guard down which either they are idiots are they are actually a sizeable number on their side that they wouldn't have to worry about getting caught.

"Are you going to be alright?" Stralit asked after Kisuke told her that he would have to sleep for an extended amount of time.

"I'll be fine. This is a normal occurrence. Though I might take some time because I used a substantial amount of Spiritual Power." Kisuke would have searched for these spies more if not for Yoruichi's call.

Kisuke didn't say much more and immediately went to sleep as soon as he reached the room that Stralit secured for him.
