Volume 10 Chapter 589 - ‘Monster’
Outside of the Twilight Mansion, Loki was looking towards the gigantic red Dragon with a rare serious expression when everyone from her Familia, fully geared, approached from behind, "Loki, we're ready," Finn declared.
However, Loki just took a peek at them and said, "Don't bother," before looking up again.
Finn furrowed his brows and asked, "What do you mean? Are you saying that thing isn't a threat?"
But before Loki answered Finn, she first addressed Ais whose emanating a dangerous aura, "Curb your rage, Ais. That's not the Black Dragon. If anything else, that being is not a monster. It's very far from one."
Although Ais couldn't do what Loki asked her, like everyone else, her eyes became wide open when she heard Loki's unbelievable words, "W-what? What are you saying, Loki? That's obviously a monster!"
At that moment, Ouranos' voice suddenly ran out for everyone in the Orario to hear, "The seal on your Arcanum shall be temporarily lifted."
That announcement sent shockwaves throughout the inhabitants of Orario and as Loki released his Divine Power, she said, "That's not a monster. If I were to be more specific, that Dragon is more of a God."
They couldn't understand what Loki was saying. Even more so when the vicinity was drowned by Divine Power by numerous Gods releasing their Arcanum and suffocating the mortals.
It was then that all those who were in front like Finn, Riveria, Gareth, and Ais noticed that Loki had some streak of sweat running through her forehead which they never witnessed before. Finn, Riveria, and Gareth figured that the situation was very bad.
As silence engulfed the whole of Orario because of the pressuring Divine Power from all of the Gods residing there, the red Dragon just kept on flying, ignoring everything below and just basking in the new sun.
'What the heck?' thought Loki and a few other deities.
A few seconds later, however, a distant, but loud roar of a Dragon was heard. As some of the few people who are familiar with it, Loki and Ais instantly recognized that roar, "T-the Black Dragon!?"
Despite the heavy pressure she's currently feeling, Ais's magic started acting up as wind with an ominous aura started rotating around her. Seeing this, Loki immediately shouted, "Ais! Stop it! And that idiot monster! Why is it trying to provoke a lion when it's just a rabbit!?"
The red Dragon, meanwhile, looked towards the direction where the roar came from, and without a warning, it opened its mouth and started gathering crimson energy in it.
Seeing this, every God started panicking and started deploying their Arcanum, wanting to attack the red Dragon, "Stop it, you retards!" Loki hurriedly shouted using her Divine Power, "That Dragon isn't hostile to us! Don't provoke it!"
With a forced smile, Finn muttered, "W-we truly don't stand a chance."
The red Dragon kept on going while the Gods watched in trepidation until it stopped and took back the power it was gathering.
In Great Red's eyes, he could see the 'small' black Dragon cowering inside its cave after being pointed by his annihilating beam. 'Chuckling', Great Red took back his attack and flew upwards before it opened another rift, leaving the world.
On the other hand, the Gods were dumbfounded. Even Loki couldn't even react properly at what she just witnessed, "I-it just wanted to scare the Black Dragon?"
As her Divine Power abated and the red Dragon left, Loki suddenly cursed to the already clear sky for everyone to hear, "Fuck you! Don't do it here! You really scared the heck out of me!"
She then started stomping off to the exit of the mansion in a bad mood.
"Wait, Loki! Where are you going!?" asked Riveria.
Waving her hand without looking back, Loki answered, "Denatus! And you don't have to worry about that red Dragon. I doubt it'll come back so just clean up the place."
While still having multiple questions in their mind, they have no choice but to follow her orders.
In an unprecedented event since the establishment of Orario and the Denatus, every single Deity, including Ouranos, attended the meeting to talk about the red Dragon that transcended their understanding. While some are worried about their future, some are also feeling excited at its existence that might be on the same level as their 'Father'.
Among the attendees were Hestia and Artemis who were also nervous due to the current state of events, however, for a very different reason, 'Yoruichi-kun said that Dragon is Kisuke's ride back home? How was that possible!? I can tell that Dragon is around Chaos' level!'
While Hestia and Artemis were worrying for their future and fearing that they might be discovered, the rest of the girls went towards the spot where they briefly felt Kisuke's aura.
A few kilometers away from Orario, atop a secluded mountain, six cloaked figures came into Yoruichi and co's view, "Kisuke?"
The tallest figure removed his hood and smiled at Yoruichi and the rest, "I'm back~!"
With a flash step, Yoruichi instantly removed the distance between them and planted a kiss on his lips, "Welcome back~!"
And while they were having their moment, one of the cloaked figures started running towards the girls, "So-tan~!!!"
"Guh!!!" Serafall tackled Sona and the two of them rolled back as the former tightly held the latter, "O-onee-sama!? What are you doing here!?"
However, Serafall ignored her words and kept rubbing her face on Sona's, "So-tan~! I missed you!!! Is that broke shopkeeper taking proper care of you? You became thinner! Are you eating properly!?"
Yoruichi looked at them, back to Kisuke, then to the other hooded figures, and turned back to Kisuke, whose making a wry smile and shrugging his shoulders, "For now, let's go back," Yoruichi proposed before the group teleported towards the underground hideout.
Since the instruction to them was to keep the cloak on outside, Ophis immediately removed hers and went straight to the couch, "I have come!" she declared.
"Welcome~, Ophis-chan. Hope you enjoy your stay," replied Yoruichi.
Nodding, Ophis answered back, "I shall."
She then turned her attention to the rest of the newcomers who'd already removed their cloaks, "Oh, isn't this Claire-chan? You came too?"
Claire ran towards Yoruichi and gave her a big hug, "Yoruichi-neechan! I came too!"
And while they were giggling with each other, Aika and Koneko approached Akeno and Irina, entirely ignoring Sona's cry for help.
"Akeno-senpai!" Koneko excitedly ran towards her.
"Koneko-chan! I'm relieved to see you doing alright!" Akeno grabbed her and checked her wellbeing.
"Kisuke-senpai and the others are taking good care of me!"
