Playing With Other Supernaturals

Volume 5 Chapter 241 - Medusa\'s Move part 1

Irina then felt relieved, \'Huh?\' As she\'s trying to figure out why she\'s feeling that way, Kisuke\'s next word pulled her back to reality, "We\'re not eighteen yet, so we couldn\'t register even if we want to."

"Wh-… But that\'s…" Irina didn\'t know what she should say. Her mind blanked out but she tried her best to think of a proper response, and she successfully found one after a struggle, "C-congratulations…"

Even Kisuke didn\'t expect that Irina would act this way. He somehow understands why Medusa is currently shaking in fear but in Irina\'s case, the last time they met is a decade ago and even if she has a childhood crush on Kisuke, it couldn\'t have carried on until this day. The disappointed and forced smile she\'s making is painfully obvious. Kisuke could only respond with, "T-thanks…"

Irina ignored him thereafter and only focused on her meal. But everyone on the table could hear her whispering, "He\'s getting married… He\'s getting married…"

The atmosphere around the table became awkward… Except for one who is somehow already expecting this kind of result, Cleria, \'Heh… So he really isn\'t well versed in this kind of thing. I finally found something normal from him. But I just can\'t leave it like this. This bittersweet feeling is very tempting… In that case, let\'s add more fuel in the fire~!\'

Deciding her next course of action, Cleria turned to Medusa who stopped eating entirely, "What\'s wrong, Ana? Something bothering you?"

Medusa nervously trying to find a solution to her problem and her focus on her surroundings almost become nonexistent, \'W-what should I do!? How did I forget Yoruichi!? Or is it my subconscious trying to forget about her? Is it my fantasies at work again!?… In any case, what should I do? Yoruichi might just kill me… But wait, it might just be my imagination or dream that I kissed Kisuke, so perhaps I haven\'t done anything bad yet?… But the way he\'s acting earlier suggests that it really happened! Is he going to blackmail me? Considering his personality, this is very possible! But what does he wants?… M-my bod-!?\' Before she could finish her train of thought, she suddenly heard Cleria\'s voice and she let out a very cute surprised yelp, "Hiih!?… W-what?"

"I said if there is something bothering you. You\'ve been shaking for a while now. Are you okay?"

"Y-yes! I\'m perfectly fine!" Medusa ended up raising her voice in fear.

\'Cute~!\' Cleria honestly thought, "Is that so? Don\'t push yourself, alright?"

Medusa nodded vigorously.

Cleria then decided to initiate her final attack that would to a bomb, "Kisuke-kun. How about the heiress of the Sitri Household, Sona Sitri?"

\'She saw it, huh… What is she trying to achieve here?\' Kisuke thought and smiled. He\'s curious at what she\'s aiming so he just let her be.

"I saw it, you know. Sona Sitri… well… violated your lips with her and you responded in kind." Instead of looking at Kisuke, Cleria dropped the bomb waited for the reaction of two girls and they didn\'t disappoint her.

" "WHAAT!?" " Both Irina and Medusa stood up. Noticing each other\'s reaction, they locked eyes. In an instant, they understood each other.

\'A rival?\' Medusa thought.

\'A little girl?\' Irina became confused.

"And all of that while Yoruichi is watching just beside them~!" Cleria finally detonated the bomb, \'Now then, show me something amazing~!\' She isn\'t an old Devil for nothing.

Just as she expected, both of their eyes flashed and they immediately turned to Kisuke. The first one who said something is Irina, "What\'s the meaning of that, Kisuke!? Isn\'t Sona Sitri that Devil Student Council President!? Are you cheating!? Did you just cheat!? The Lord will land a Divine Punishment on you! Confess your sins now and correct your mistakes! I\'m ready to listen!"

Medusa, on the other hand, didn\'t confront Kisuke but asked Cleria a question, "Cle- ehem… Kyoko-san, is this Sona Sitri still alive? If yes, what is her fate now?" This is the first thing she wanted to know. Deep inside her, she wanted a certain result.

"Hmm? If I were to guess, she\'s probably skipping in delight." Cleria smiled answering her.

Medusa swallowed her saliva and took a peek on Kisuke. At this point, he escaped from Irina\'s assault by feeding Ophis who doesn\'t care how rowdy it becomes as long as she stays fed.

Even Irina is surprised at her words, \'Delighted? Did Sona Sitri know that Kisuke already has a lover?\'

Still didn\'t want to jump into conclusion, Medusa changed her question, "Did Yoruichi do something about her? Or is she planning to?"

"I don\'t know what she\'s planning. But as far as I can tell, she doesn\'t particular seems against his actions." Cleria\'s smile grew bigger and bigger. This is what she wanted to see, \'Ana-chan~! I wonder what\'s your next move is?\'

Medusa closed her eyes and thought for a moment. Everyone is now silently watching her. After a few seconds, she opened her eyes which now turned into slits and she sported a smile. The snake found its prey.

Kisuke felt a shiver when he looked at her eyes, \'Uhmm… Is this perhaps what she is aiming for?\'

Irina is a bit concerned with her inhuman eyes, but something else bothered her greatly. She understood what that expression with a tint of seductiveness meant, "Wait wait wait! You\'re just a little girl! You\'re too young and it\'s a crush at most! So stop making that expression! And most importantly, it\'s a crime!"

Medusa pouted her mouth after hearing her words. She\'s indeed a little girl like now and she likes it very much compared to her previous tall form as she just looks like her unaging sisters. But now she thought about it, it\'s bad for her to stay in this form if she wanted to pursue Kisuke. And she knew that Kisuke has a strange fascination on butts and maid uniforms which won\'t be able to achieve very well in her current appearance. Nevertheless, she just couldn\'t let Irina\'s words slide, "I\'m older than you!"

"What!? You\'re going to force your self with that obvious lie!?" Of course, Irina isn\'t going to buy that.

"Guh…" Medusa knew that she couldn\'t prove herself without showing her that form. This is her first step so she didn\'t want to lose, so she tried to think of a way to return, even temporarily, \'How can I achieve that? In the first place, why did my body shrink in the first place? My mana capacity is only a fifth of my normal so maybe it has something to do with that? If I can overload myself with mana, maybe I could return, even it\'s temporary. Although there are risks in that, I\'m just controlling the amount of Mana I originally have, so it should be fine… Now the question is how can I have that Mana.\'

While thinking of a way, Medusa inadvertently glanced at Kisuke and a certain idea dawned upon her, \'There is that!… No, no, no. I would look too desperate if I were to do that… But… Since I\'m already in this mess… It should be fine?\'
