Volume 5 Chapter 279 - A Note
A few minutes earlier, Serafall is doing all the work she has set aside to look for Kisuke and Sona in her office in the Underworld. Although she's doing her official duties, she still hasn't stopped her search and has been receiving reports from all of her connections.
A minute later, three holographic images appeared in front of her. Those images are the other leaders who attended the Peace Conference more than two weeks ago.
"Serafall… you should rest." It is the first thing Sirzechs said after seeing the usually cheerful and bubbly friend of him all haggard from the current events.
"I'm fine… And even if I'm not, I won't stop. Every second and minute they are gone, the chances of something bad happening to them goes up…" Serafall replied with a dark tone.
The three other leaders could only sigh, "Let's move with today's schedule. On my side, I made contact with various Gods and presented them with our initial terms for them to sign the Peace Treaty. Asgard is up for it while the others are still contemplating and will send their envoys sooner or later." Azazel knew that they wouldn't be able to convince Serafall and pushed forth their meeting.
"The problem is, as expected, Mount Olympus. When this whole issue exploded, Zeus, as strange as it is, stepped down from his position as their chief for the reason of taking care of her beloved daughter. Zeus apparently recommended Apollo to take the position he just left and is now managing the whole Mount Olympus.
"Of course, I also sent them the proposal for the Peace Treaty, but Apollo only replied with, 'If you don't bring us Kisuke Urahara's head. It'll be hard to pursue peace with our members dissatisfied.'
"I also tried contacting Zeus, but strangely enough, he can't be bothered right now… It smells fishy but I can't just openly meddle with their affairs." Azazel ended his report.
"That's indeed suspicious…" Michael muttered.
"And that Apollo is even more so!" Serafall gritted her teeth as her instincts were telling her something when she heard someone other than Zeus is now leading Mount Olympus.
They all looked at Serafall and thought that she's just overthinking things since she would want someone to take the blame for her little sister's disappearance. Although Serafall firmly believes that Kisuke has nothing to do with all they are accusing him of, the other three don't share the same thought. They don't know Kisuke enough to trust him as Serafall does. Although there is also a possibility that Kisuke's goal is Serafall's trust, and he's using it for things like this.
"Moving o--!? What's that!?" Sirzechs was about to present his findings when they suddenly felt a massive malevolent aura pressing on them.
Azazel and Serafall, who are both familiar with this aura, shouted, "Ki-tan!" "Kisuke Urahara!"
Serafall stood up and tried her best to pinpoint which direction is the aura coming from, but failed.
"So he's currently in the Underworld?" Sirzechs muttered as he also tries to search the origin of Kisuke's aura, but someone refuted him, "You're wrong… He isn't in the Underworld." Michael corrected him.
"Hmm? What do you mean?" Sirzechs asked and both Azazel and Serafall looked towards Michael with confusion.
"Because if you're feeling a strangely violent aura from there… I'm feeling it too… And I'm currently in Third Heaven. Everyone is panicking, thinking that someone is attacking us…" Michael explained.
"What!?" The three, who are listening, simultaneously exclaimed, "How is that possible!?"
Before they could further their discussion, however, Grayfia's holographic image interrupted them, "Sirzechs-sama! Kisuke Urahara's aura is felt in the Human Realm, please send reinforcements to search for him!"
Instead of agreeing with her request, Sirzechs asked, "What's going on?"
The other leaders also has the same question but nobody could answer them.
While they were at loss, the aura suddenly exponentially got heavier before disappearing in that same second. Everyone in the meeting is brimming with cold sweat as they all look at each other, "If that is really Kisuke Urahara, then we underestimated him… severely." Michael muttered.
"Grayfia… Bring others with you and search the Dimensional Gap…" Sirzechs gave his orders.
"Understood." But before she could leave, a large earthquake suddenly shook them and this earthquake is felt in Heaven, The Underworld, and Human Realm. Chances are, it's also felt on other secret realms which don't normally feel any earthquakes, "This is insane… Just what did he do?" Azazel asked blankly.
Grayfia was about to leave when she was interrupted yet again, not by Kisuke, but two large aurae clashing and all of them are familiar with those aurae, "Great Red and Ophis!? Really, what's going on!?" Azazel stood up from his seat and looked in a certain direction.
"This is bad… If they really start their clash, it'll only be people of this world who will suffer, but it's not like we can do anything about it!" Michael clenched his teeth in frustration.
Then they started giving orders to everyone in their command to stay on alert and watch if any powers of both Ophis and Great Red spills out of the Dimensional Gap. Their main goal is to stop any destruction that they'll cause towards the surrounding realms.
Just after they all finish giving their preliminary commands, while the clash of Great Red and Ophis were happening, a large wave of space fluctuation resonated throughout the realms, "What now!? Just who the hell died for all of this to happen!?" Azazel couldn't help but curse out. They really couldn't keep up with all that's happening in dimensional scale anymore. Aside from having no manpower to respond to all incidents, they also don't know how to properly respond to what's happening, which is becoming the source of frustration and fear for everyone. And the first thing that happened before everything followed is that they felt Kisuke's aura, which makes him the center of all of this.
Scratching their heads and not knowing what to do, the fluctuation in space suddenly stopped and a few seconds later, Great Red and Ophis' aurae started ceasing as if taking that stop in fluctuation a signal.
When they thought everything is done, a few seconds later, a split in void suddenly emerged beside Serafall, shocking everyone, "That's Kisuke Urahara's spell…" Grayfia muttered.
But instead of Kisuke himself, what came out of it is a bucket hat with white and green stripes pattern, a photo, 20 bars of chocolate, and a piece of note.
Serafall caught everything and the split in the void closed. She first looked at Kisuke's favorite hat and the photo which features her and Sona before putting it on the table along with large number of chocolate bars. She then proceeds to read the note, 'Good day Sera-tan~! Are you doing fine? Though their's not much time for me a longer note, I want to tell you that Sona-chan is already safe in my hands, and due to some accident, We won't be able to come back for quite some time. That includes me, Sona-chan, Yoruichi, Aika, Koneko, and Kuroka, so don't bother searching for us. Take care of yourself~!
PS
You might feel lonely, so here's your and Sona-chan's photo along with my favorite hat to accompany you in your journeys~!
PSS
By the way, It looks like Ophis-chan is pretty peeved, so I want you to give all of these chocolate bars to her. I've included my own aura in those chocolates so she should be arriving soon.
PSSS
Don't trust the Mount Olympus, especially that boney guy. However, don't openly go against him. Gather information from the shadows. You can get Belial Household's cooperation and if that is not enough, try to find Athena. She shouldn't be in a coma as the news says.'
Serafall blankly stared at the note for a few seconds after reading it before Sirzechs spoke, "What does it say?"
Hearing this, Serafall instantly burned the note which shocked everyone, "It says that Sona-chan is already safe and they will go in hiding for a while…" Although they don't show it, Serafall could tell that they don't actually trust Kisuke and someone who can't trust him can't be trusted with the content of that note.
Serafall ignored their further question by saying the same answer over and over again. Everyone sighed at her stubbornness but they couldn't do anything. And just as they're about to discuss what just happened, in front of Serafall, a little girl in gothic lolita outfit appeared.
