Chapter 1060 Round 2 part 1

Half a day later, there were various people who were transported to the floating island of the Ouroboros Academy, most of them were injured that needed immediate treatment while the others were the Deities who didn't accept Chaos' power with a few of their children.

In all honesty, they didn't really need to save them but that's just Kisuke and a few other apathetic individuals. However, some people, especially Issei, would protest against this and would just move on their own, so Kisuke was forced to wait to settle things down, 'I need to recover a bit anyways so this is fine.'

After meeting Sona, Medusa, Ravel, and Ingvild, Kisuke, and Yoruichi went straight to Hestia where Rossweisse was assisting her in the maintenance of the barrier.

"Hey~ How are you doing?" Kisuke greeted Hestia who was surrounded by Rossweisse, Akeno, Irina, Aika, and Serafall.

But instead of him, Hestia ran towards Yoruichi and hugged her, "You're safe!"

Yoruichi smiled wryly and felt a bit guilty because they didn't really tell him their plan of 'dying', "I'm sorry for making you worry, Hestia-sama."

Hestia pouted and said, "You should have told me."

Yoruichi, nevertheless, only chuckled, "We would have if we were sure that it was going to happen. We weren't even sure if there was indeed a traitor among them so it was just a bit of a sideshow."

From a pout, Hestia started making a contorted expression, "Death is a sideshow? I don't really get how your heads work."

While Yoruichi was comforting Hestia, Kisuke approached Rossweisse and asked, "How is the barrier?"

"It's amazing!" Rossweisse excitedly answered, "It doesn't run on any system and I can't even figure out the logic behind it! It's created as if there's only a single thought, 'defend', behind it and nothing else."

"How's the transfer process?"

Rossweisse's excited face then turned into an embarrassed one, "The transfer went smoothly. I initially thought that I could supplement and fortify it more with my own barriers but I'd only be adding a thin sheet of paper onto a steel plate."

'Even her barriers? As expected, people who can only do one single thing are some of the most frightening beings,' thought Kisuke while saying, "Thank you for your hard work."

Kisuke then turned to Aika and asked, "How's the preparation on your side?"

"Done. But I didn't really expect that we'd use it on the holed-up Transcendent. Those Magic Cannons won't be enough so I already informed Issei that we'd need his [Gift]." Aika, from her inventory, took out a tablet and passed it to Kisuke, "The strength of that shell, though not as strong as the one Hestia-chan can provide, is still a bit too thick." She added while watching Kisuke scroll through the tablet.

"Hmmm... So we only get one shot, huh? When's the next one after the first volley?"

"Three hours if I want it to get back a bit of its original strength but they would be completely out of commission after that. One day if you want to reuse it again after the second volley."

Kisuke scrolled through the tablet more before asking, "What about Issei's AxA? Can't we use that?"

This time, it was Akeno who gave him the answer after shaking her head, "It's not impossible, but breaking the seal of AxA will cause the Alliance to lose its leverage on peacekeeping and will keep Issei's movement to a minimum. As it is now, it'll be disadvantageous, not just for the Alliance, but also for us to have his freedom limited. I don't think it would be wise for us to have Issei use AxA even if it has devastating destructive power."

"Forget it. It's not like we can kill Chaos with just AxA. If he's someone who could just be obliterated with pure firepower, it wouldn't be this hard to deal with him." Kisuke went silent for a moment before continuing, "Just make sure that I can deal with Chaos alone."

"Alone?" Yoruichi approached him with Hestia from behind and asked with a frown, "Do you have to do it alone?"

Kisuke nodded, "It has the highest chance of winning and he'll let his guard down more if I'm alone." He wanted to take out the dagger he used to stab Tiamat in the forehead to check its status but he didn't want Benihime to go ballistic on him right now.

From the outside, they could hear Nyx's voice as she was trying to chase down Claire's group, "She hasn't caught them yet?", asked Irina with disbelief, but she was not reprimanding Nyx's ability because she also knew what Nyx could do. If she couldn't do it, chances are, she can't do it too.

"How are they escaping?" Akeno also asked as she too could hardly believe the situation.

"It seems that Ophis and Flanna are not with them. Where are they?" asked Serafall.

"They have an assignment they have to complete. They won't be joining us," replied Kisuke, "How about you join them? It's been a while since you've seen Claire and Tanis, right? You could test their skills too if you're curious."

Although a simple and reasonable statement, Yoruichi alone caught what Kisuke was planning, 'He's still struggling with a decision, but this is a good start.'

"Well then, I'll go check on Riveria to see if she hasn't been eaten alive by those curious individuals." Without explaining much else, Kisuke left the girls to themselves.

Although there are thousands of refugees that need to be treated, the island still feels enormous and wide. Along the way, he saw Deities that went to Loki's side in midst of the fighting assisting the other Deities who just came, 'There would be around a thousand Deities on our side if all of them could gather but Chaos would have tens of thousands. Not to mention, they would probably have most of their power back after being poisoned.'

What makes it harder is the fact that Kisuke doesn't really want to kill the enemy Deities because there would be no point in annexing this world if most of its manpower is gone, 'An hour... No. Half an hour. I have to finish Chaos within half an hour.'

While thinking of the sequences he should follow to force Chaos' cards, Kisuke reached the dormitory where those who fought in Orario are staying and once he stepped in, he was greeted by a restless sight. Immediately after, Riveria suddenly appeared behind him with a very tired expression, "Help me calm them down... I didn't think they'd react this much."
