Chapter 927 Kisuke’s Super Secret Informants
After her meeting with the leader of the Youkai Faction, Sakura immediately made emergency contact with Kisuke.
[Hello mom~ Missed me?]
"I did, but this isn't the time for casual talk. I just received a very important piece of information that could change our relationship with the Alliance."
Kisuke's expression became serious and he instantly locked himself up in a barrier when he heard his mother's tone, [I'm listening.]
Recalling the information that came from Yasaka, Sakura explained it one by one.
First, the Alliance is already aware that an otherworldly invasion is coming in the near future. They even know the names of these invaders and some of their abilities.
Second, this information seems to come from Gasper Vladi in the future who had successfully become a Super Devil. Because he was able to develop the ability to manipulate time, it became possible for him to contact the 'past'.
"Finally, the reason why they hid this vital information from us is because 'Kisuke Urahara' and 'Yoruichi Shihouin' do not exist."
'We're killed? But he said we didn't exist... Was our existence erased and we're forgotten by everyone else? In the first place, could I even trust this future information?' Kisuke's eyes widened in shock and unconsciously started forming numerous hypotheses surrounding this, [Hmmm... If that's true, then I can understand their hesitance to reveal it.]
"I know! But that doesn't mean they should have hidden it completely! It doesn't make sense. You're doing your best to protect and prepare everyone from this threat yet here they are, essentially hindering you because they are afraid of information with the same trustworthiness as a prophecy!?"
Kisuke was already happy that his mother was getting pissed for him as he couldn't do the same since he'd probably take the same measures if he were in their shoes, [Of course they'd be cautious of me, mom. But enough of that. I'm interested in how Yoruichi and I disappeared in that apparent future. I doubt that they could have a full-blown conversation about the future since that could change many things unintentionally.]
"Indeed. According to Yasaka, this Gasper is refusing to say some information, especially on the interpersonal relationships between people since that could make things complex and difficult. However, there are things that he could confirm. Since you're from the Belial House, that's the main source of contradiction along with some of the people in your group."
"First is that it was confirmed that Nee-sama and Masaomi-san are both dead. Next, I apparently never surfaced or revealed myself. Aika, on the other hand, is a Magician that studied under Lavinia Reni. As an extension of those, Claire, Tanis, Riveria, and Medusa were never heard of."
Kisuke thought about it for a second, 'That came as far as messing up Rizevim's plan when I was a child and ended up saving my Aunt. Even if I'm erased in the future and forgotten, it shouldn't have affected the people around me that much... Then the only possible thing is that Yoruichi and I never existed in their timeline in the first place. Now I can understand their fear clearer because that would mean I'm something 'very wrong' for the world. A 'mistake' that shouldn't have happened.'
Kisuke couldn't help but grin to himself, 'Now then~ How should I take this to my advantage and mess with them?'
"Are you thinking of something bad?" Suspicion immediately rose from Sakura when only silence came from Kisuke.
[Hahaha~ Of course not~! How could I do that? In any case, the situation's become even more interesting. When are these invaders coming?]
"A decade from now."
Hearing that, Kisuke couldn't help but stifle his laughter while shaking his head, [That's impossible.]
"Hmm? What do you mean? Are they coming earlier or later?"
Kisuke's eyes sharpened, [They are already here. They are just laying low because this is enemy territory.]
Sakura's body shook, "W-what!? How do you know?"
Kisuke chuckled, [Let's just say I have a group of little troublemakers that got that information for me~]
The moment Claire's necklace activated automatically, Kisuke also opened a line to see what was going on. He was shocked that Claire's group got the first contact. But thanks to that, an opportunity also presented itself.
At first, Kisuke was thinking of contacting them so that they wouldn't reveal what they found to anyone and that's definitely not because he didn't want to get scolded, but because of Kunou's involvement.
After that, he was thinking of ways to convince the group to go bother that 'evil base' but Claire had already beaten him to it again.
Thanks to this situation, Kisuke would be able to gather information relatively safe, 'Although they'll be putting their guards up, once they realize that the girls are moving on their own without any backing from the big factions, they'll be showing more and more weakness. My lovely cousin is really great~!'
"So, are you going to do something about that?" Sakura asked.
Contrary to what Sakura expected, Kisuke shook his head, [No.]
[I could do something and clean them up, however, I won't be stopping their invasion. Contrary to that, they'll only be more careful and I don't want them to hide any deeper than this without gathering up some more information.]
"But you still can't leave them alone."
[That's true... But Great Red and I already have something in mind. Although we can't stop their invasion, there's a way to delay it for a few years or so. At this point, any time we can buy is already a good deal.]
Sakura went quiet for a few moments before saying, "Then I'll trust you. For now, we'll continue as we're planning and integrate the secular world to the supernatural world."
[...This will cause hostility towards the House of Belial and could even cause large wars in the Human World that could change the geopolitical landscape.]
Sakura sighed, "We don't have much choice. Ultimately, this will save more lives by bringing the dark side into the light. It's way better than just dying without knowing what caused it. Though thanks to these Soul Gears, we should be able to bear that hatred."
[Nah... I don't think those in the upper part of the society will blame you considering how they're expecting the invasion to come a decade from now. History, though. It'll brand us as some sort of villains for the foreseeable future until all of this is over.]
This time, it was Sakura who chuckled, "Did you think that our House is that weak? I assure you, we will be hardly mentioned. That's how much power the tool you gave us possesses."
