Chapter 805 Discovered Hidden Danger
With a small pout, Freya took out her 'heart' and brought it close to his chest, "I would have asked for more demands if I knew it would be as one-sided as that.", But before the orb could touch Kisuke, multiple intricate barriers covered the object, "Aren't you being too careful? This thing would do anything to you."
Kisuke nodded and said, "That's true... At least, that's what you believe is the truth. However, you didn't create Heaven so there's no way for you to actually know everything there is to it about Deities. Whether there's a hidden truth or not, it doesn't hurt to be careful."
"I guess you reached this level because this is how you do things." After the barriers were fully established, Freya pushed the covered orb and it disappeared in Kisuke's chest, letting it sit on the outermost corner of his soul.
Kisuke and Freya disappeared from the lake and a few minutes later, numerous concerned and curious Deities arrived at the shore of the Lolog lake, only to witness the devastation that they have left but nothing else.
After using Flash Step a few times, Kisuke and Freya arrived at the room where the executives of both Loki and Freya Familias gathered and each one of them was looking at them with trepidation. Not because of the battle which ended they didn't see because everyone's memories have already returned to normal. It's largely because of Kisuke's current appearance, closer to a monster more than a human he claims to be.
Kisuke ignored them for a moment and asked Freya, "Can you stand?"
Freya nodded and Kisuke gently placed her down. She didn't wait for anything else or even greeted Loki and her children. Freya just started walking towards the exit while beckoning her children, "We're done here. Let's go home."
Everyone from the Freya Familia kept what they were thinking to themselves and followed their Goddess without any questions. Out of everything that has transpired, they are just glad that she's safe and sound. It was also then that they noticed that despite her apparent weakness, her steps are light as if an invisible burden has just left her shoulders.
While they were leaving, they came across Gareth's group that has been trying to enter the area since earlier but thanks to one of the Loki Familia members who came out with them to explain the situation, no clash happened.
It also didn't take too long before Kisuke's rampant power calmed down and slowly returned to her previous form. After changing his clothes through Magic, Kisuke tipped his hat towards Loki and said, "Well then, Loki-sama, everyone. Thank you very much for your reception but I won't be staying long. I hope you have a good day."
"Wait. You haven't fulfilled your promise."
"Ah, that. It's really nothing special. Freya-sama wanted my 'experience' and I showed her some of my memories. She then used her orb as a stake."
Loki clicked her tongue and sat back down, "That's essentially telling me nothing by leaving out the most important parts!"
"But I've fulfilled my promise so I don't have any other duty to answer your curiosity." Kisuke didn't say anything else and directly disappeared in a blink of an eye.
"...Loki.", Finn called out to her.
Loki was able to easily figure out what's on everyone's head and said, "What? You're bothered by the form he took?" Since Loki knew that they couldn't possibly tell the difference between Freya's aura and Kisuke's aura, their attention was caught by Kisuke's inhuman form.
Silence from the surrounding was all the answer she needed and she couldn't help but sigh, "How is he any different from Filvis? And besides, many Gods themselves have horns on their original bodies and some of them even have extra limbs and eyes."
Loki then stood up and left the room, intending to catch some rest. But unlike Freya who left on a happy note, Loki is feeling disappointed that her children seem to be not at all capable of escaping the common knowledge that they have despite being presented with evidence, 'Fighting monsters all these years and avoiding conflict with people seems to have taken a bad influence in their minds. Even though they knew that people are much more capable of evil compared to unthinking monsters...'

As soon as Kisuke exited the city, Yoruichi appeared beside him, "Why did you come to watch? Were you that worried?" Kisuke jokingly asked.
Unexpectedly, however, Yoruichi nodded seriously.
Kisuke stopped walking and faced her, "Hmmm?... Why?"
"Aika gave me a heads up. She didn't know what it was but she told me that something dangerous might happen to you. Since we can't really categorize her ability anymore, I couldn't take that warning lightly."
"Dangerous...?" Kisuke resumed walking but his mind was running at full speed, trying to find a clue what that danger could actually be. Alas, despite spending some time contemplating on it, he couldn't think of anything. Though that itself is a clue since it meant that he either can't sense this danger in the first place, overlooking something, or something beyond his control was moving.
And considering that Aika felt it on himself, there's only one that comes to his mind. Tapping his cane, Kisuke sent a thought, 'You're awake, huh? Since when? And why are you hiding it?'
Though he was just guessing and tricking her to reply, Kisuke indeed got a response, 'Because I was bidding for my time.'
'Since you responded, does that mean you gave up? What for anyway?'
With a lighthearted tone, Benihime replied, 'Examination~'
Kisuke was startled and stopped walking which prompted Yoruichi to ask in concern, "What's wrong?"
"Thank you for coming... Looks like I was really in danger..." There's only one instance that Benihime referred to something as 'Examination' and that's when he tried to achieve his Bankai. Due to his Zanpakuto's nature and ability, he almost died before passing her test. And until now, he firmly believed that Benihime would have been fine with it even if they both perished that day.
