Chapter 1186 Etoulde Guests part 2
AN: Please read the editor's section if the situation is a bit confusing.
==================================
Gwenn carefully looked at the woman who sealed the whole space and saw a familiar face but an entirely different race, "Yoru...? Are you Yoru?"
Yoruichi grinned at her while resting her white blade on her shoulder, "It's been a while, Gwenn. I didn't think you'd come looking for me when I'm fishing for an entirely different person." Her eyes then went down a few inches and looked at her closed fist, "I would really appreciate it if you don't do that... For the safety of everyone in this small space."
"Let me be. I don't know what's happening so this is insurance." Gwenn replied while continuously gathering Spiritual Power within her fist. Any strange movement from Yoruichi, Laria, and Alicia, she'll detonate the power she's gathering and thanks to her eyes, she managed to find a few weak points on the seal so aiming there is enough to destroy the whole artificial space, freeing all of them, albeit, injured.
Yoruichi stared at her for a few moments before sighing. Her blade then returned to its original form and the devastating Spiritual pressure and the space lock receded quietly, "How about this?"
Gwenn was silent but Alicia beside her immediately warned her, "Don't let it go! Just so you know, she came from DxD and I suspect her to have a connection with the Evies! Let's just escape from here!"
'DxD?' Gwenn thought to herself and tried to recall what that was, 'Ahh... Isn't that the latest world under attack by the Evies? I don't really follow what's happening on the frontlines so that's as much as I know. And Yoru have a connection with the Evies? That's not too strange these days, is it?'
A few seconds later, Gwenn decided to trust her guts and slowly recalled the power she was gathering to Alicia's horror, "Why!?"
Gwenn turned to her side and said, "You've been focusing your efforts on the frontlines, but you don't really know what's happening on the back."
"...The back?"
"Let's head inside." Yoruichi interrupted them, "It's better to have a lengthy conversation over some drinks. Laria, I'll leave it to you."
Yoruichi went behind the cabin to clean her workplace while Laria moved forward and invited the two guests to enter, "This way, please."
Gwenn didn't hesitate any more and followed Laria while Alicia gritted her teeth and thought, 'Yoruichi Shihouin... Kisuke Urahara... The two individuals that possess the most threat against the Etouldes. I felt my spider on her so she must be connected with Stralit Luxeus's successor. Not just that. It's confirmed that there's a hole in their seal that allows them to get out.'
Out of all the people within DxD, Alicia wanted to cooperate with Kisuke and Yoruichi the most. However, they are strangely unresponsive. Now she knows that they are trying to do something behind their backs and it gives her an ominous impression when there's a line connecting them to the Luxeux who she suspects have a connection with an Evie.
'Tsk... There's no point in imagining scenarios in my head now. I have to get a clearer picture of what's happening. Gwenn also mentioned that something is happening in our homeworld so that's another problem.' Alicia could feel a headache coming and followed the two who already entered the cabin while also securing her means of escape.

"Sorry for the wait." Yoruichi came out from the back 15 minutes later after a quick shower. Thanks to Laria's attendance, the guest is sitting quietly while enjoying their drinks, "I didn't want to meet you with all the grime and dirt on me."
"Are you really Yoru?" Gwenn turned to her and asked directly.
"The same Pamatypian that you met and registered in the Mercenary Union. Though as you can tell, that's just my disguise and my real name is Yoruichi Shihouin from the world you guys designated as Draconic Deus." Yoruichi sat down with them and turned to Laria who was standing on the side, "Thanks, Laria. Please leave us alone for now."
Laria lowered her head for a bit before walking away.
Gwenn watched her leave for a bit before turning her attention back to Yoruichi, "You're awfully honest. Or is this another lie?"
Yoruichi shrugged her shoulders, "It's up to you what to believe. But your friend here will be able to confirm if I'm telling the truth or not."
But instead of confirming, Alice asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Only if you answer my question first."
"What is it?"
"Are you the main contact of DxD?"
"..." Alicia became silent.
"If you can't answer that, I can change the question."
"Go on."
"What is Chimune Chipaoti trying to do by contacting Issei Hyoudou?"
"!?" Gwenn instantly turned her head towards Alicia upon hearing the name of one of the highest beings in Etouldes.
With a complicated expression, Alicia replied, "I'm the point of contact between the higher Etouldes and DxD."
'She answered the first one. Is she afraid that I have a way to differentiate a lie?' Yoruichi thought while carefully planning her next steps. Her preparation this past year was to have a proper negotiation table with Alicia, 'But the problem is Gwenn... I don't know where she stands in all of this.'
Yoruichi sighed and answered Alicia's question, "I came here to study what sort of beings are messing with our world right now, obviously."
"And what did you find out?"
"That we stand no chance if either side decides to destroy us."
Alicia calmed down after that bit of exchange and was able to tell that she was not in immediate danger, "So what did you call me here for?"
"Before that..." Yoruichi turned to Gwenn, "Why are you here? I just released a bit of information but I didn't think you'd catch it."
Gwenn thought for a bit about what she should reply with before saying, "After the mess, you made against the enemies of Luxeux, of course, I'll come."
"Enemies of Luxeux? I wonder what you're talking about?"
"Well, you can deny it, but I can rest assured that you've underestimated my eyes." Gwenn said while pointing at her shining eyes, "These eyes could hardly see through things, instead, it's much more effective at seeing flows and small details. It's easier for me to track than to find something.
"I still don't know about these enemies of Luxeux and what they went through, but what if it's really me? What are you going to do?"
Gwenn grinned and leaned forward with her elbow on the table, "What about taking another job? This time, against the enemies of Yarwood."
