Playing With Other Supernaturals Chapter 168
Advertisement
'What's going on?' Kisuke kept watching Medusa as she moves around and did another round of killing but also leaving the others alone, 'She selecting who she is killing? Why?'
Yoruichi also stared at the screen thinking of the common denominator of all she had just killed. After a few minutes, she suddenly got an idea, "Kisuke, can you get in and take a look inside Athen's Police Database?"
Kisuke instantly understood her thoughts and without a word, took out his laptop. It only took him some minutes to get in and view the confidential police files of Athens.
After that, he rewound the recording to crop the faces of Medusa's victims to do some image search on the database. And just as he and Yoruichi expected, they got a hit on most of them.
Medusa's first kill is a man with multiple **** and murder cases but was dismissed due to some lazily thought out excuses.
The second is accused of torturing random people that he grabs on the street, but then again, he was not convicted due to the 'absence' of evidence.
"Well... That clears things up. How can she tell which one is a criminal?" Kisuke put down some of his worries. He didn't care about the 'freaky' way she drinks other's blood because he knew that there are way worse things out there. And besides, it's the way you use power is the most important thing. For Kisuke, there are no 'evil' or 'good' abilities.
Yoruichi shrugged her shoulders and also let go of some of her worries, "Who knows... Maybe she developed some kind of sense for that. It isn't impossible. Adding that kind of sense will only make our assessment of her soar. That's very useful for a lot of things, but I doubt that's effective for real pieces of shits out there."

Kisuke then started modifying his 'drones' when they arrive and left Yoruichi to watch Medusa closely.
Half an hour after Medusa started her killing spree, however, Yoruichi called out to him again, "Kisuke... Come here."
He can tell Yoruichi's seriousness from her voice and dropped what he is doing to take a look at what's happening.
Kisuke's expression also turned serious after seeing Medusa's current state. After her 13th kill, a malevolent aura suddenly exploded from her. It seems that she knew that it'll happen so she immediately searched for a secluded corner and sat down unmoving. Gritting her teeth, the malevolent aura started circulating her. After a minute the aura is now slowly moving back inside her, but Medusa's expression kept getting worse.
"Change of plans. I'm moving ahead of schedule." Kisuke stood up and gathered all of his 'drones' back to his inventory.
"I also won't be watching from here. I'll go ahead and watch the temple. I'll secretly enter after you two. It seems more interesting to watch in person and some things are also outside of our expectation so having me near you will increase our safety margin." Yoruichi also stood up and transformed back to a black cat.
"Got it." Kisuke opened the window and faced Yoruichi one last time, "Enjoy the show~." He used Flash Step and disappeared from his position.
Yoruichi smiled and replied back even though Kisuke is not there anymore, "Give them hell~." The same with Kisuke, she used Flash Step and disappeared.
This will be the last time they would be stepping on this house.

Medusa developed a way to easily distinguish what type of person is in front of her. Every time a person murders, they would get the victim's resentment which they can't notice and each resentment is different from each other based on how they are killed. The one Medusa could detect is resentment from victims of heinous and sadistic crimes.

But even then, she wouldn't target those people who did this crime for one or two times. Her minimum threshold for this killing spree is those who has resentment of five or more people.
At first, she doing alright absorbing other people's blood for Mana. But after her tenth kill, the 'Gorgon' inside her started acting up. She was shocked that it was stimulated earlier than expected but she still can't stop because she knew that the Mana she gathered is still not enough to against the Perseus Clan, 'I have to endure it... As long as I'm careful, I shouldn't lose control of myself easily.'
With that in her mind, she continued to kill and absorb blood, but after the 13th kill, her Divine Core suddenly released a massive malevolent aura and its color became a mix of crimson and gold hue that is swirling around, 'What!?'
Normally, Medusa has a good grasp of her limits as she has already done this multiple times in the past. But she failed to consider one thing, and that is the existence of her sisters protecting her Divine Core. Without her knowledge, Medusa's sister has been controlling and taking care of her Divine Core so that it won't be corrupted which gave her a false impression regarding her limits.
But due to a certain encounter with someone who has a very strong soul in a certain alley, they gambled and gave Medusa their remaining power to save her from death... for her to get a chance to meet that person again.
By giving Medusa most of their remaining power, they almost disappeared, but with sheer luck, they were saved by the person they are hoping to meet Medusa.
Although not everything is good fortune as before they were saved by Kisuke, Medusa's older sisters were forced to 'sleep' and has been dormant ever since, even after recovering most of their usual power.
Due to that, Medusa's Divine Core got out of control a lot earlier and spontaneous than she expected. This change alerted the sister but it would still take some time for them to wake up from their deep 'slumber'.
"Guhh!" Medusa hurriedly looked for a secluded corner and sat down to try to control everything. She was successful at containing and reabsorbing the malevolent aura back to her Divine Core, but that only made it more volatile.
Although Medusa still wanted to take her core's control, violent thoughts started filling her mind freezing her intended actions, 'KILL! KILL EVERYONE!'
'No!'
'DRINK THEIR BLOOD AND EAT THEIR FLESH! ALL THOSE WHO TOOK AWAY OUR 'PEACE'!'
'No!'
She's fighting those invasive thoughts with all her might but it's all for naught. Scales are starting to form throughout her whole body and her hair is now forming a head of a snake, 'This can't go on! I have to end this!'
Using all of her willpower, she conjured her dagger and immediately aimed it on her neck. In a flash, the tip of the dagger arrive in front of her neck but a hand suddenly grabbed her arm, stopping it from piercing her neck. Soon after, another hand landed on her head and warm energy suddenly poured out from it and soothed her tired mind.
"Don't be hasty~. That's not the real solution."
