Playing With Other Supernaturals

Chapter 981 Seven Years part 2

Loki promptly grabbed the photo album, hurriedly opened it, and was greeted by a treasure trove full of Riveria\'s candid photos ranging from her doing her daily activities and enjoying food to little accidents. All in all, it was a photo collection of Riveria experiencing the other world with all of her emotions and expressions on full display.

"Cute! Cute! Beautiful! Cool! Cute! What the heck was that!? That\'s funny!" Loki started muttering to herself while her breath was getting increasingly ragged and her face heated up as she went through the pages with great vigor. Due to her excitement, she raised the photo album on top of her head and shouted, "This is it! This is what I\'ve been waiting for all these years!"

But by doing that, Riveria managed to get a glimpse of what she was looking at, "That\'s!?"

She had been wondering what Kisuke gave Loki and had a bad feeling. And upon seeing her embarrassing moments printed out, Riveria immediately pointed her finger at it and a small ball of flame instantly ejected out from it, hitting the photo album and burning it.

"Ow ouch!" She didn\'t even want to let it go but the burning sensation forced her to drop it. Loki was devastated as the treasure disappeared in front of her eyes, "Noooo!!!"

Chuckling, Kisuke leaned forward and whispered to her, "Your free trial is over. How do you like it?"

Loki immediately turned around with renewed excitement and remembered Kisuke\'s words before, "I want ten copies of each of the wholesome and risque versions! How much!?"

Naturally, before Kisuke could answer her, balls of flame soon came raining down on him. While securing his hat with his hand, Kisuke dodged left and right while backing off and gaining some distance, "Let\'s talk about it later, Loki-sama~!"

Riveria only stopped her onslaught when it became dangerous for the pedestrians-only minding their business, "Where are you going?"

Kisuke tipped his hat and said, "I\'m going to check on a few things first and come back later. Go enjoy your long-awaited reunion for now."

Kisuke disappeared among the crowds before Riveria could say anything else, "There he goes with his secretive antics again." An obviously worried expression was displayed on her face, \'Does it have something to do with the tunnel closing on us earlier?\'

"What are you being worried about?" Loki asked her with a teasing expression, "I know you two have become closer all these years, but I think that\'s the last guy you should be worried about. Or rather, you should feel bad for those who mess with him."

Unexpectedly for Loki and those around them, Riveria didn\'t put any effort into denying that she has gotten closer to him and just smiled wryly, "It\'s not the case in his hometown."

"Hmmm..." Loki seems to think about something but chooses not to dwell on it for now. She grabbed Riveria\'s waist and dragged her to the inner parts of the Twilight Manor, "Let\'s forget him for now and have a feast!"

At her words, Riveria\'s face contorted a bit so Loki immediately explained, "Not that kind of forget! I know you\'re curious about what\'s happening but let\'s save that when he returns."

Meanwhile, the members of Loki Familia could only watch in silence, dumbfounded by what just transpired, "R-Riveria-sama got a..." Lefiya muttered in horror and Tione shouted the complete sentence for her, "Riveria got a man!!!"

After that, the whole Loki Familia exploded into commotion that Riveria, who\'s hearing all of it, could only facepalm, "How am I going to resolve this misunderstanding?"

"Misunderstanding? That\'s a misunderstanding? Who are you kidding?"

"It is! We\'re not yet-... I mean we\'re not like that!"

Loki just made a fed-up expression and said, "Yeah right. I believe you."

Kisuke walked around through the busy evening streets and came across some acquaintances but no one reacted to his presence, \'I wonder for what reason this time? And it looks like Yoruichi didn\'t deliberately tell me about this.\'

The reason why he separated from Riveria wasn\'t just so that he wouldn\'t intrude on their \'Family Reunion\', but also check the status and condition of the spell formations he\'d left behind. With the upcoming conflict with the \'Dungeon\', Kisuke wanted to modify them to suit his needs, \'I hope Chaos doesn\'t find anything unusual when I \'repair\' them.\'

By design, Kisuke made it so that some of the more complicated spell formations would crumble and become nonfunctional from the passage of time. So when he approached it again and did some modifications, it\'d appear that he\'s just repairing it and wouldn\'t raise too much suspicion for its real use.

Though before he could do all of this, he caught a glimpse of a familiar pub that didn\'t seem to have changed in any way, \'Looks like it\'s still as popular as ever. I\'ll have my dinner first.\'

Kisuke entered the Hostess of Fertility and was welcomed by the noise of the rowdy Adventurers that just came back from work and the slight scent of alcohol in the air. He then went straight to the bar counter and grabbed Mia\'s attention, "I\'d like some roasted meat and Deli soup."

What Kisuke didn\'t really expect was Mia turning to him with a grin, "So the usual stuff. It has been a while since someone ordered the Deli soup."

Kisuke returned her smile and nodded, "Yep~ The usual please~ It has been so long since I\'ve had that."

All the waitresses that heard their exchange looked towards them and wondered who Kisuke was since Mia wouldn\'t remember someone\'s usual order if they\'re not a regular.

However, no further exchange happened between the two throughout the entirety of the man\'s meal and their curiosity waned as they served the other customers. Except for one Elf waitress that had been feeling strange when her eyes landed on him the moment he entered.

A thousand miles away, Yoruichi, Serafall, Hestia, and Artemis were riding in a jeep-style car and were rushing through the empty plains towards Orario, "How long before we get there?", Hestia asked in excitement.

The driver, Yoruichi, answered, "Probably around 20 hours? Maybe a bit faster depending on the road\'s condition."

"Can\'t we just teleport?"

"We could, but where\'s the fun in that?", replied Serafall while looking out the window and enjoying the wind.

"That\'s right. Besides, that guy would immediately go to work once he landed so let him do his thing first and then we can have a proper reunion. We also have to make a few stops and pick up Line on the way."
