Chapter 658 Complaint part 1
Going back in time for a bit, everyone went home to prepare for the upcoming day after seeing Kisuke off. However, an hour later, Loki and Riveria came running to their estate while dragging Line along with them. "Oi!!! Kisuke! You bastard! Come out!", yelled Loki from the gates.
Feigning a cough, Riveria reminded Loki, "Loki, you're in public. Please be mindful of your image."
"I don't care! I need answers!", replied Loki and called out to the mansion again.
With a timid expression, Line who was dragged over here asked, "Uhmmm... Loki-sama, Riveria-sama... What are we doing here?"
"We're here to complain!", answered Loki.
"Complain about what?", asked Line with an innocent expression.
"Your behavior, of course!"
Line tilted her head in confusion, "Did I do something wrong?"
Loki and Riveria gawked at her. "A-are you seriously not aware?", asked the latter with a twitching mouth.
But before Line could say anything else, a tall woman with long purple hair and a pair of glasses came out of the mansion, wearing a simple maid uniform. However, her gait made her look more like a high-ranking aristocrat instead of a maid. This contrast made Loki, Riveria, and Line quiet for a moment.
The maid approached and opened the gates for them before greeting them, "Good morning, Loki-sama, Riveria-sama and Line-sama. What can I do for you?"
While rubbing her chin, Loki stared at her for a while before asking, "Are you Kisuke's rumored new woman?"
Chuckling, the maid replied to her, "I have no idea what you're talking about, Loki-sama. Besides this isn't our first time meeting."
"Hmm? We've met before? Maybe with my children within the Dungeon, but I would never forget someone as striking as you."
The maid nodded and added, "It's a complicated story, but I'm Medusa."
Riveria and Line's eyes widened at her words, but Loki took some time to pull out 'Medusa' from her memories, "Hmmm? Medusa... Wait... What!? You're that little kid!?"
"As I said, it's a complicated story. Anyway, please come in.", Medusa then ushered them in.
"Where's Kisuke?", Loki first set aside her shock and asked what she came here for.
"Unfortunately, he once again left for more business and we don't know when he'll come back.", answered Medusa as they walked.
"Again!?"
"He's a busy person and doesn't know how to rest."
Loki started scratching her head in frustration before saying, "Fine! I'll complain to that pipsqueak instead!"
"Hestia-sama, is it? I'll lead you to her."
Reaching the living room, Loki and her companions came face to face with Hestia, who was sitting cross-legged on the couch with her arms crossed and having a scrunched-up face, "What menace have you brought upon this home!?"
Loki didn't say anything to her and instead panned her sights to her side, "Can I knock her head?"
Artemis, who was peacefully sipping her tea, smiled at her and said, "Be my guest!"
Loki smirked and approached Hestia with a threatening glare. With Artemis' permission, Loki unhesitantly raised her fist.
Flailing her arms around, Hestia immediately took back what she said with a panicked expression, "Wait! I just wanted to say that at least one time!" But Loki didn't listen to her and everyone could hear a fist knocking on the head resounding throughout the whole room followed by a scream of pain.
A few minutes later, Sona, who was in the same room asked the guests to sit down, "What can we do for you today, Loki-sama?"
Of the three of them, only Loki sat down and made herself feel at home, "I'd like to issue a complaint to that bastard, but I've heard that he isn't here."
"He has important business to attend to."
"To your homeland again?"
Sona shook her head and told her the truth, "He actually followed Yoruichi-san and Kuroka-san who had previously gone to the Dizara Region."
"So that's where they went... But for what?" Asked Loki but she only received silence from Sona.
Accepting her 'answer', Loki sighed, "Dizara Region, huh... I have a feeling that they'll wreak havoc in that place... I want to see it. Do you have any teleportation circles here?"
Sona smiled wryly, "Loki-sama, you do know that something like teleportation magic can't be dispersed to the public easily. On top of that, only those who are experts in Space Magic could execute it safely."
Sona and Akeno could only do it despite both of them not being experts due to their Devil Lineage that gave them an edge through 'summoning'.
"That's true... A lot of regulations would first have to be decided before instantaneous transfers could be used safely. Speaking of the Dizara Region, it reminds me of Astarte. I've heard that she's been active around that area."
"What about her?", Hestia asked Loki.
"Well, if she knew that Takemikazuchi was in Orario, she would probably scale the great distance between Dizara Region and here just to give him a beating. She's been chasing him for a few millennia after all, and I think that she still hasn't given up."
"Ah, I think I've heard about that back in Heaven. So she still hasn't given up on him?"
"Yep, but not in the sense that you're thinking. Last I've heard from her was when she declared that she'd hunt down Takemikazuchi and tie him up for a few hundred years to express her resentment. Ever since then, Takemikazuchi has been on the run from her."
"So that's why he didn't choose a popular spot when he descended.", muttered Artemis in realization.
"I also think that's the case.", Loki then smirked maniacally, "I sincerely hope that Kisuke would become the bridge for their reunion~ I can't wait to see the carnage~!"
From behind, Loki suddenly heard Riveria's cough which made her return to her original expression, "Ehem, I got sidetracked. Anyway, I want to know what that maniac fed to my Line during her stay with him!"
"Loki-sama!?", Line exclaimed in confusion.
At those words, Sona, Artemis and Hestia all made complicated expressions while Medusa could only smile wryly. "W-what did he do to you? D-did he cross the line?", Sona asked Line in a flustered voice.
"Cross the line?", Line repeated the question before realizing what it meant. With heat instantly rising up to her face, Line started flailing her head and arms as she vehemently denied her assumption, "N-no, no, no! Nothing like that happened! I swear! He only left me alone with some books and taught me some things! That's all!"
Hestia, Artemis, and Sona sighed in relief. But they also knew that if Kisuke wasn't careful, another one would be on the edge, like the High Elf beside her.
"So, what happened?", asked Hestia.
Clearing her throat, Loki started telling them what happened this morning.
