Chapter 993 Lysa
The moment Ophis' name escaped Lysa's tiny mouth, all the memories that had been sealed were returned to her, including the inexplicable joy of meeting the man who saved her again after not seeing him for most of her life, "Kisuke!"
"It's Kisuke-niisan for you.", a small gentle smile emerged from Kisuke's face as he patted Lysa's head.
Ais was stunned at his sudden change and her mind became jumbled. Meanwhile, Riveria sneered at him and said, "Stop kidding yourself. You're at least an uncle to her."
However, Riveria immediately regretted opening her mouth. With the same smile on his face, Kisuke pointed toward her and said, "Say hi to grandma Riveria~!"
"Hi grandma Riveria!"
"..."
Lysa immediately ignored the dazed High-Elf and turned her back to Kisuke before asking excitedly, "Ophis! Where!?"
She is supposed to have already learned how to speak properly but due to her excitement, her vocabulary and linguistic skill had almost disappeared.
Kisuke understood her excitement and started thinking of a way to meet those expectations. Since she's just a kid, he'd happily grant her small wish of meeting someone, 'Now then... It's not like I can conveniently contact Ophis or Lilith from my side...'
He knew that this would cause further confusion and might result in something undesirable among the girls of the Loki Familia. Nevertheless, it isn't exactly a problem that he cared deeply about so he would just leave them to Riveria.
Though before he could think of a solution for Lysa, the communication card that he'd kept outside his inventory started sending out alarms, and that card is specifically connected to Ophis.
Curious and happy with the coincidence, he took the card out at once and answered it.
After placing the card on the table, a holographic image of Ophis and Lilith emerged, [My mark... What happened?]
Kisuke answered by pointing to the little girl beside him.
Ophis and Lilith followed his finger and saw the Dragon with bright eyes staring back at them. For a moment, they forgot who she was, but her eyes and aura finally reminded them after thinking for a few moments, [Small white.], muttered the former.
"It's Lysa!" The Dragon proudly proclaimed.
The little Dragon wanted to talk to them and ask who is the other 'Ophis' and where are Claire and Tanis. However, another individual entered the hologram which made her freeze on the spot, [Hey, Blackie. Did you contact Boss? Hmmm?]
The red-haired grown-up 'Ophis' stared at Lysa and Lysa also stared back at her. The silence continued but it wasn't for too long as Lysa suddenly took several steps back and started prostrating while her whole body shook from fear.
Before anyone could react, Kisuke arrived behind her and instantly picked her up from the ground, "Yep. You don't have to do that."
Feeling the familiar arm and aura, Lysa hurriedly turned her body and grabbed Kisuke's head into a hug. After seeing Flanna, she couldn't speak anymore.
Unlike Ophis who saved her from the 'abyss', Flanna is technically a stranger. Since she's just a relatively weak Dragon, suddenly facing a 'God' made her panic and anxiety blown out of proportion, "...Kisuke...!" She could only mutter in a soft voice while burying her head into Kisuke's hat.
Flanna, on the other hand, just chuckled and asked, [Hey Boss, what's that amusing thing?]
Kisuke properly carried the child in his arms and tried to appease her, "Don't be scared of her. If she hurts you, Ophis will beat her up."
"Wha-" Flanna wanted to protest against Kisuke's words, but Riveria suddenly entered her view and saw her deadly stare. Flanna shuddered and immediately shut her mouth. Out of all the people in the world, Riveria is one of the very few that could actually scare her because of the nature of her eyes that could see through her if Riveria ever tried.
Riveria then turned to Kisuke and her cold expression was immediately replaced by a gentle one. She reached out and took Lysa into her arms, "I'll take care of her. Let's go Lysa. The adults are going to talk. I'll introduce you to a new friend."
Kisuke didn't say anything as Riveria took Lysa and the card off the table before leaving the bar.
Ais wanted to follow them, but Lefiya stopped her, "I'll go with them. Ais-san. Please stay here."
Lefiya knows that Ais was very worried about Lysa, especially about how she acted so weirdly. However, more than that, they need to figure out more about the strange man known as Kisuke Urahara to even make sense of what's going on. And Ais, who had the sharpest instincts, just a bit inferior to Finn, needed to be present.
After a moment of hesitation, Ais sat back down and watched Lefiya leave, and Filvis followed her, leaving only the Hiryute sisters and her on Loki's side.
"I don't know what happened, but I think it's a good time to get into the main reason why I invited you here." Bell forcefully pushed through the silence and took out his dagger once again before passing it to Kisuke.
Kisuke carefully received it and inspected it with an astonished expression, "This is actually amazing. For it to have evolved this much was not really in my consideration. It must have been hard."
Tiona, Tione, and Ais also looked at the dagger as it was a famous weapon that Bell had ever since he started adventuring and was rumored to have never changed and not even need to be maintained. It was a famous weapon not just because it's very sharp, but also because it could change its form to a certain extent. In addition to that, it's the only weapon that Bell could use when he uses his signature spells [Lightning Shift] and [Flame Shift].
Sadly, its name when Bell was just a beginner has been stuck with it, [Black Rabbit].
But while they were busy, Hestia and Artemis noticed that Loki was sweating bullets. Though after thinking about it for a brief moment, they understood what happened.
As a shapeshifter herself, Loki was able to see through Flanna's real identity, 'What the heck!? Isn't that the ridiculous Dragon that passed by years ago!? And why is she calling Kisuke 'Boss'!? And why does it look like she's scared of Riveria!? Just what happened on that side!?'
