Volume 4 Chapter 175 - Special Bombs

Kisuke and Medusa have reached the center of the ruins of Temple of Aphaia. Some time ago, people have started leaving this place making it devoid of any walking tourists or locals, "So this is the place… Are we supposed to enter this magic circle?" Kisuke wandered around inspecting the place for any clue that he can get. The only other people left hanging around are those from the Perseus Clan. They are staying a few hundred meters away from them and both Kisuke and Medusa ignored them entirely.

"It seems so… Are you really going with me?" For one last time, Medusa asked Kisuke.

"I've already decided. Even if you ask me a thousand times, I won't change my mind." Kisuke kept looking around. He already has a clue as to what's inside the alternate space, 'Hmmm… So if we enter that space, it'll automatically lockdown? And the Mana coming from inside is weird… Divinity? So a god or goddess is already inside? Hehehe. Great, I'll be able to test it for quite some time.'

From the corner of the temple, a small shadow jumped towards Kisuke's position. Medusa was about to retaliate but Kisuke stopped her by raising his hand. Kisuke caught the black figure in his arms and said, "Oh my… What a cute kitty~." Then proceed to pet it.

The black cat, Yoruichi, however, doesn't want any of it and started clawing on his chin, 'You bastard kept seducing everyone! Taste my wrath!' She shouted internally and jumped around his shoulders and back to try to reach his hair.

"What is this cat doing here? Did it get lost? Let's bring her out of this place first before going." Medusa wanted to touch the cat too, but she can feel that the black cat is somehow emitting hostility to Kisuke and is trying to claw on his hair and she hesitated. Although Kisuke kept waving his head to dodge her claws.

"Nah… We're bringing her with us~." Kisuke then caught Yoruichi and stopped her from moving by hugging her in his arms.

"… Don't bring it in if you can't escape with her."

"I can and I will, alright?"

"Fine…" Medusa let out a sigh and asks, "What do you plan to do now? Do we enter just like this?"

Yoruichi stopped struggling as she knew this isn't the time for that and she would better chances later when Kisuke is outside of his Hollowfied mode, "Hmm… Let see… Our choices are limited if we're outside…" Kisuke stared at the magic circle to study it and found a loophole. Normally, this magic circle won't transport non-living things only. They have to be accompanied or carried by a living being with a certain amount of Mana, "Yosh~. Let's do that!" Kisuke said and started rummaging his inventory with a large smile on his face.

Medusa took a step back and watch him with vigilance. Although she can't see his face right now due to his mask, she can tell that he has a big grin from her short interaction with him, and whenever he makes a face like that, someone is bound to suffer. Kisuke then took out 5 balls made out of paper which is as big as a baseball and placed it on the magic circle. Kisuke places his hand on the magic circle and it automatically activated. Seeing this, Medusa immediately runs to his side and grabbed his shoulder. If Kisuke would be transported, she would be included too. But to her surprise, instead of doing what it is supposed to do, the light of the magic circle started blinking and after a few seconds, the five balls of paper were transported.

"…What did you do?…" Medusa blankly stared at him.

"If you touch it, it'll automatically draw Mana from the surroundings to transport you. But if you can control that intake of Mana and only activated certain logic gates in it, you can modify its effects or remove its restrictions to some extent." Kisuke explained like it wasn't a big deal, which is true for him.

Medusa, however, held her forehead and sighed, "Although something like that is possible in theory, no one can actually do it! How can you finely control Mana which didn't come from you!? If you can do that, then you'll be able to cast magic even with your own Mana depleted!"

"Eh?… Well… With the power of friendship, everything is possible!" Kisuke randomly thought of a reason.

"That's not how it works!" Which immediately earned him a retort from the normally 'cool' beauty.

"Hahaha~. Just think of it as me being me~."

"…" Medusa wanted to say something but can't find the right words, "For some reason… I find that actually a good reason… What the hell…" Medusa kept muttering to herself until she calms down and asked about the second thing she is curious about, "What are those paper balls? Why did you send it away?"

"Ah, those? Just some special stink bombs~"

"…Why?" Her head started hurting again trying to find the reason for his actions. She wanted to ask why he has something like that or if he created it himself but save herself from frustration in hearing his answer.

"It's to lower their fighting spirit and concentration~," Kisuke explained. Although that really is one of his reasons, his main goal lies elsewhere but he didn't tell it to Medusa. Kisuke could have sent a bomb that is strong enough to kill everyone inside the alternate space, but he didn't do so for multiple reasons. First is, Medusa's goal is to save the girl from the flyer. Second, he doesn't know if everyone inside deserves to die, and he didn't want to cross the line of killing everyone to kill the thief hiding among them. The third is they are all just small fry and killing them is useless to him. And lastly, even though the Perseus Clan acts that way, they are still a powerhouse in the region. Removing them entirely would create a large vacuum of power where other powerhouses will try to compete with each other to take their territory. Only innocent small-timers of the supernatural world will suffer from that and even normal people could be affected which is something he definitely didn't want to happen.

Hearing his senseless words, Medusa gave up immediately and only waited for him to go in. Kisuke waited for a few minutes before stepping on the magic circle with Yoruichi in his arms while Medusa holding one of his arms. She didn't want to get separated from him during the transport and physical contact is a good measure for it. That's the reason she used to convince herself.

Once they were transported, they appeared in the middle of the arena. The first thing Kisuke noticed is not the people inside the arena and on the audience stand, but the owl statue in the middle of a stone table. He didn't lay his eyes on it for too long though as he pretended not to notice it. His first words, however, drove the people around with great rage, "Nice to me-… Damn! Who the hell just farted!? And this smell? Whoever you are, a suggest you go see a doctor! You're probably constipated for a few years now! Or maybe this is how you welcome your guests? Is this a cultural thing? Quite unique… and smelly if I were to word it nicely."

A man with a rapier instantly reacted, "You bastard!!!"

Kisuke's eyes opened wide and said, "So you're the constipated guy. You can die from that you know~."
