After taking a look at Issei's condition, Kisuke went straight to the lodging inside the secret training ground.

Entering a wide room for medical purposes, Kisuke didn't speak. In the center of the room is Koneko, laying on a large bed and sleeping with a pained expression. Koneko already returned to her previous petite form, but her body is full of bandages with some blood seeping out. Aside from that, most of her skin is also covered in bruise.

Kisuke already inspected her condition and the results are a hundred times worse than Issei's injuries. Her external wounds are one thing and can be easily fixed, but her internal injuries are a lot trickier to solve due to the result of her overloading herself several times. And it doesn't help that her vitality is at the lowest point that someone else will easily mistake her already dead.

Surrounding Koneko is an orange oval barrier. It is Kisuke's attempt to recreate Inoue Orihime's ability to reverse injuries, but it's still in the experimental stage and won't be as effective as the original. Although it's enough to close all her external wounds and stabilize her internal injuries if left alone for a whole day, which is what Kisuke plans before doing a more extensive treatment.

Kisuke could have used Asia's help to heal Koneko but her strange flame's ability is still lingering and could devour all kinds of Mana around her which in turn worsen her condition. Kisuke also didn't want to bring Asia here nor Koneko outside because of the turmoil she created.

Besides Koneko is Aika who is sitting and making a sour expression as she watches Koneko, "Will she be alright?" Aika asked without turning to Kisuke's direction. Even Aika won't be able to joke around with the current situation.

"She'll be fine. Though she probably won't be able to use Senjutsu for a few months if we don't find a way to speed up the healing process." Kisuke walked beside her and answered.

"Can I do something to help?"

"As of now, no."

"Then let stay by her side to closely watch her condition. You and Yoruichi will probably very busy. That's the least I can do."

"... I'll leave it to you then." Kisuke patted her head before turning around and exiting the room. Kisuke already put up numerous barriers to alarm him if there are any changes in Koneko's state, but watchful eyes as an addition won't hurt and may prove useful at some occurrences.

Left alone, Aika clenched her teeth and recall how the game went, 'It just a game. But you may lose your life if you let your guard down...'

Aika knew that if there is no Kisuke or Yoruichi who's helping her, she'll be at the mercy of others, and obviously, she didn't like that, 'Since I already entered this world and too late to get out, I have to at least make sure that I have the power to defend myself and Koneko who is in this state even if Kisuke and Yoruichi aren't around. It seems that there are complicated things going on around the Devils and I'm sure Kisuke won't entrust her to them if there is some danger.'

Leaving the room, Kisuke went straight to his laboratory to continue developing the medicine that will help Koneko recover. He isn't blaming Koneko for what she's done, on the contrary, he's happy that she was able to let go of herself. Although he really didn't expect that Senjutsu would this be dangerous to its user. Even Hollowfication won't have much strain on the body and only massive stamina consumption.

But with the data he gathered from Koneko's Sage Mode and further transformation, it's likely that her last form will be easier to control compared to Hollowfication.

Kisuke is very excited at these developments and thought that maybe he could use some of its data to further enhance Reiatsu-Ki and Hollowfication. But right now, he has to help Koneko recover before the damages in her body becomes permanent.

Yoruichi meanwhile is patrolling the perimeter of the house and escorting Sakura secretly in case that the Devils or any other beings attack them. Yoruichi also reminded Sakura that she shouldn't go out as much. Sakura also agreed as she also watched the rating game and knew that Koneko and Yoruichi are sensitive topics for the Devils. She filed an indefinite leave in the company she's working at and only goes out when she needs to buy some groceries.

On the third day after the Rating Game, Koneko woke up. Although all of her external wounds are healed her internal injuries just stabilize and would need some more time to recover even with the help of Kisuke's newly developed medicine specifically tailored for her physique.

On the Devil's side, The Underworld decided that they'll only watch Koneko carefully, along with Kisuke who is supposed to be connected to her training and the mysterious lady, Yoruichi.

The higher-ups of the Devil's society wanted to apprehend Koneko along with Yoruichi due to some unclear and longwinded accusations, but several Houses refused this decision, namely the Gremory, Sitri and strangely, the Belial House. They were shocked that the Belial House wanted to vouch for Koneko but the said house didn't reveal anything aside from wanting to help the nekomata in this case.

To their dismay, however, when the inspection team arrives, they only saw Kisuke and his mother, Sakura along with a lazy black cat. They never saw their real targets and choose to ask Rias Gremory and Sona Sitri as they also received a command to only watch from a distance and don't make contact with the said humans.

Rias Gremory gave them an excuse that Koneko is recuperating somewhere due to her serious injuries she incurred and won't be able to appear in public for a week or two. While Sona Sitri, who they knew could answer their questions, refused to entertain them on the grounds that she's very busy because her sister, the Devil King, is about to visit and wants to stay in the Human realm for some domestic affairs work and she has to prepare for it.

The afternoon of the third day, in Urahara Household, Kisuke, with Yoruichi on his lap in her cat form and Sakura beside him, is facing the current leaders of the Kuoh Town in the supernatural world. Namely Rias Gremory with her Queen, Akeno Himejima and Sona Sitri with her Queen, Tsubaki Shinra. Kisuke, Sakura, Rias, and Sona are sitting while facing each other while Akeno and Tsubaki are silently standing behind their masters.

"... and that's the current state of affairs." Sona finished reading and explaining the documents in her hands.

"Just watch, huh... I guess that's good." Kisuke rubbed his chin in contemplation, 'I didn't have to reveal some of my cards and I didn't have to make a move on my own,'

"It's thanks to the Belial House. Although it's really strange for them to get involved in this." As Sona said this, she sends a glance towards Sakura, but Sakura ignored it and just smiled while drinking her tea.

Kisuke knew what she's talking about and it's also his guess that his mother has some connection to the Belial House, 'Now that makes it easier. I should start my investigation there.'

Seeing that they are done, Rias opened her mouth, "Ura- Kisuke-kun, How is Koneko doing? We haven't received any additional news from you starting from the day you went to the medical ward to check on Issei. Can we see her?" Rias' voice is filled with worry and Kisuke can see her very haggard, maybe due to doing everything to protect Koneko's place on their side. Akeno also has the same expression.

Kisuke thought that he should tell them the truth seeing that they working so hard for their little junior.
