Playing With Other Supernaturals Chapter 167
Advertisement
Kisuke did the final test on his 'trump card' to make sure that it would work as expected.
While busy, Yoruichi suddenly called out from behind him, "Kisuke, looks like they made their move and Ana was hooked in immediately."
"Oh?" Kisuke stopped what he's doing and peeked at the screens. He saw Ana reading a flyer that one of the Perseus is distributing, "Yoruichi, do you have any information on the woman on the photo?"
Yoruichi shook her head in response, "Teach me how to control these cameras."
Kisuke taught her the basic controls of the camera and after a minute, Yoruichi mastered its use. She then controlled everything except for one to go around the whole island. The one left kept its focus on Ana who is now shaking in rage while the rest tried to capture the faces of the people who are distributing the flyers.
"How is it?" Kisuke asks while he prepares some tea for both of them.
"These guys are Petter Perseus' men..." Yoruichi furrowed her brows as she recalled the information she gathered these past few days, "But he supposedly not interested in the seat of Clan Head..."
"Maybe it's all just a ruse to throw-off other candidates?" Kisuke tried to guess but even he knew how unlikely this is.
"If that's the case, then he would have used this move long ago. I can't think of any reason why he would want to postpone this." After getting the faces of those distributing the flyers, Yoruichi then gathered half of the cameras towards the location written on the flyer, the Temple of Aphaia.
Kisuke took note of Medusa's movement and got interested in what she's doing, "Let's watch for now... It seems that Ana-san got some plans."

"And that plan doesn't include us," Yoruichi commented.
Kisuke chuckled in response, "I guess she too kind... I wonder what her connection with that girl?"
"Whatever it is... it's not a shallow one." Yoruichi nodded at his words, 'She important enough that she could risk her life... But why did she only appeared now?'
"Right." Kisuke has the same question in his mind but knew nobody from both of them knows the answer so they didn't voice it out.
They watch how Medusa pretended to be a lost tourist to join one group to get near the temple until she went away from it. Yoruichi nodded in satisfaction on the way she moves, "Though there are some things that she can improve on, she did a great job at that one."
"What do you think of her as your helper?" Kisuke suddenly asks.
"Hmm... If I can teach her a few things, then she would become a huge help when there is too much going on. And the greatest thing about her is she's an outcast. As long as we rout this Clan and make sure that the Olympians wouldn't touch her, she can do a lot of things. But you asking this... You decided to take her in?"
"No better choice, right? Especially now that we need manpower that isn't related to the Three Factions."
Yoruichi sighed. She didn't refute him as he's right about them needing more manpower, but they have too many secrets and can't recruit just about anyone. They can only do so by chance, such as this, "I also think that she the type of person that wouldn't stop until her 'debt' is paid after everything is over."
After discussing taking Medusa in, Kisuke and Yoruichi heard a beep from the screens which are showing the temple, "What's that?" Yoruichi asks.

"Oh... Those are additional sensors that I attached to those things. Those sensors are for scanning the surroundings' Mana levels, composition, and flow. And just one, it's done analyzing the environment on the temple." Kisuke then approached the terminal and strike some keys. The screens then changed its display to a bunch of numbers. Only Kisuke can understand these numbers as he deliberately didn't put any labels on it, "Hooh... I see..."
"What's up?"
"They are hiding on a separate space." Kisuke rubbed his chin in contemplation.
"Can you check inside?"
"They'll probably detect these things if we do that. We should only do it if I'm about to enter."
"So you'll be announcing your entrance?"
"They know that someone will enter anyway so I'll do it as flashy as possible."
"Why though?"
"I've just thought of a way to make things easier~."
"Hmmm... Well, whatever. Do what you want."
"That's settled then. Yoruichi, gather everything except the one on Ana. I'll do some modifications now."
"Roger that~. Oh, and modify one so that it wouldn't be detected so that I can watch the fun too."
"Sure thing..." Kisuke wanted to say more but he noticed something peculiar at the way Ana is moving after separating from the tourist group.
Yoruichi also noticed this and put back her attention to the screen, "What is she doing?"
Medusa is currently stalking one group from the Perseus Clan who's patrolling the area. Kisuke and Yoruichi are watching her movement closely because she currently emitting a hint of blood lust.
When the group entered an alley where there are no other people, Medusa immediately pounced on them and knocked them all out, 'This is completely unnecessary. Those are just minions of the real deal...'
Just as both Kisuke and Yoruichi tried to guess the reasons behind her unseemingly useless effort, both of them furrowed their brows when they saw her next actions.
Medusa walked towards one of the knocked down men and after a minute or two of hesitation, she took out her dagger and slit his throat. The man's blood spurted out like a fountain and died in his sleep. What made Kisuke and Yoruichi took a serious expression is when the blood from the man floated up and gathered on Medusa's hand like an orb. After getting everything, a tendril emerges out of the blood orb and went to Medusa's mouth for her to drink it. The orb of blood slowly loses its volume until Medusa consumed everything. Once she was done, she burned the corpse with simple fire magic and left the scene where she stalked another group from Perseus Clan.
"What was that?" Yoruichi voiced out her concerns.
Kisuke didn't speak and just kept looking at the screen featuring Medusa, 'What's going on?'

To live is to Dream (LitRPG; First Draft)
A new Power has come into the World and seeks to change it. Being on the last dregs of sanity and full of alcohol Daniel West receives an opportunity to seek revenge. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To live is to Dream is the second book of the Just a Dream series. You do not have to read the first to enjoy the second, but there will be recurring characters along the line. The first book features Mir, a man that dislikes how his current world appears and hence wants to change it. The second book will feature other people and how the changes implemented by Mir affect their lives. For those interested in my first book, it's easy to find it. Just beware that with the first book, it was my first time writing and there are a lot of grammar errors despite lots of editing, at least at the beginning of the book. The cover was done by Lmarief. I had requested something bizarre and she delivered. I have even used it as part of the story since her interpretation of my imagination was a bit different. Still, I loved it. As a thank you gift, I posted a link to her profile here for others who want a unique cover. https://www.royalroad.com/profile/220043
