Playing With Other Supernaturals Chapter 234
Advertisement
After Kisuke asked her to leave before his battle with Kokabiel, Ophis just wandered around with the snacks on her hand with nothing to do. At first, she intended to return to the Khaos Brigade's hideout but decided against it after a few seconds of thinking, "...They might take biscuits."
Ophis then wandered the whole Earth while slowly eating her biscuits. But soon enough, the biscuits on her plate were gone without her realizing it. And even if she was able to decrease her eating pace, the biscuits only lasted for about an hour.
The moment her tiny hand landed on the plate but failed to grab a biscuit, she got a bad premonition. She hurriedly looked down on her desolated plate and her heart sank a little bit, "...Gone..."
Ophis stared at her empty plate with a blank expression for the whole ten minutes while standing on top of Mount Everest. The Infinite Dragon God, mourning the fact that her plate is empty. If others who know her were to witness this scene, the people who don't have enough nerve would shout, "What the f*ck!" and the rest would question their reality.
Ophis, however, didn't feel disheartened and a glint flashes through her eyes. In an instant she, teleported. When she reappeared, in front of her is a door and behind her is a hallway. Without hesitation, she opened the door and a certain scene entered her mind. It's the scene she kept seeing in Japanese homes and she thought of imitating it, "...Welcome home." She said with a small smile on her face.
Kisuke and Yoruichi who just arrived using Flash Step along with the now unconscious Aika and Koneko in front of their house were dumbfounded. But both of them saw the empty plate on her hand and instantly understood what's going on. Kisuke and Yoruichi looked at each other and laughs escaped from them. Moving forward, Kisuke patted Ophis' head and entered the house, "We're back~!"
Ophis nodded and followed them inside. She glanced at the two injured girls and looked towards Kisuke. Without turning around, Kisuke said, "They're fine."

They then reached the living room and set both Koneko and Aika on the sofa. Since Kisuke just did something big, he knew that a lot of eyes would focus on him and the first thing he did is to reinforce the defense and stealth mechanism of the house. He couldn't carelessly teleport to the Training Ground as he didn't want to risk it getting exposed at this stage. Beside's Medusa is also currently resting in his and Yoruichi's room.
Kisuke then proceeds to heal both Aika and Koneko with the help of Yoruichi. After the first aid, he remembered something, "Oh right... I promised Kuroka that I would give her medicine for that white guy."
"Is that alright? Even though that guy is weaker than you, his intent to kill is still pretty obvious." Yoruichi asked.
"It's fine. He's just a typical battle maniac. Even Zaraki would release bloodlust if it's about a good fight and he wouldn't hold back even if it's a friend. Besides, if it's as Kuroka said, we can strike a deal with them." Kisuke grinned as he pulled out a test tube with a cork containing a red liquid.
Seeing the test tube, Yoruichi's mouth twitches, "The hell? An HP potion? You played too many games."
"Since you know what it is, you also played quite a bit of RPG."
"Well... I have too much time sometimes and they're a bit... amusing. Anyway, how will you give it to her?" Yoruichi felt a little bit embarrassed and changed the subject.
"I intended to teleport it to her side, but..." Kisuke transferred her sight to Ophis who is still staring at him while holding an empty plate, "That intense stare and empty plate kept bugging me..."
"True..." Yoruichi also glanced at Ophis and instantly agreed.
"Uhmm... Ophis-chan... Let me have that empty plate first." Kisuke reached out his hand towards her and Ophis silently passed her beloved plate to him.
After getting the plate, Kisuke returned it to his inventory, "Ophis-chan, I can't keep giving you snacks for free."
Hearing this, Ophis' eyes widened. She, who was supposed to be an apathetic being, felt the world crashing down. The lights in her eyes were gone.

"What are you doing, you idiot!?" Yoruichi immediately smacked his head.
Kisuke just let Yoruichi smack him, but inside his mind, 'Crap... This loli is too cute!'
"Ehem!" Feigning a cough, Kisuke looked back up to Ophis, "Ophis-chan, you misunderstand. It doesn't mean that I won't give you snacks ever. It's just you have to 'work' for it."
Ophis' eyes lit back up and an elated feeling spread through her whole being. For Ophis, this is the first time she ever felt like this so she's a bit confused and curious. But the allure of the snacks is a lot greater so she ignored it for now and tried to understand what Kisuke means by 'work'. Thinking for a few seconds, she understood what she has to do and immediately conjured several 'snakes' that can strengthen people. For her, 'work' is just the same as the 'wish' those guys from her organization always ask her. She looked back to Kisuke, feeling proud of her ability.
Yoruichi stopped moving and whispered to Kisuke, "Kisuke... This loli is too cute."
"I know right!"
"...I want to protect her..." Yoruichi followed up.
Without any hesitation, Kisuke replied, "Great! I fully support you!" He then looked back to Ophis, "And Ophis-chan, I don't need your snakes."
Ophis was shocked yet again. This is the only 'work' she knew, after all. Not knowing what to do, she's feeling down again.
Kisuke and Yoruichi both wanted to laugh. Kisuke showed her the test tube with red liquid and asked, "Do you know Kuroka? She should be in your organization."
Ophis tilted her head in response. She doesn't know anyone like that.
Understanding what she wants to say, Kisuke supplemented her with information, "It's the black cat. She should be with the guy with white armor."
Recalling a certain figure, she nodded.
"Great. Give this to her, and I'll give you a box of doughnuts."
Immediately after hearing what she has to do to get a box of her favorite, she grabbed the test tube and turned into nothingness in an instant. A few seconds later, she returned. Kisuke and Yoruichi can tell her anticipation from her demeanor, 'This loli is getting easier and easier to read as time goes...' They both thought.
Without letting her wait, Kisuke took out a box of assorted doughnuts. Ophis immediately grabbed it and set it on the table. She opened her treasure box and got conflicted about which one to attack first. She then decided to get the chocolate glazed doughnut. But just as she was about to grab it, a certain message flashed through her mind stopping her mind midway.
Kisuke and Yoruichi noticed the change on Ophis but they only looked at her silently. Ophis stared at her treasure for a minute before closing the box again. She then gave it back to Kisuke.
"What wrong?" Kisuke asked.
"...Meeting..."
"Can't you eat it while in the meeting?" Kisuke knew which meeting she is talking about.
"I can't... They might get my doughnuts." For Ophis, snacks are the ultimate pleasure. If others in Khaos Brigade see her with a box of doughnuts, they might 'wish' for it and she won't be able to reject it.
Kisuke chuckled and received the box, "Good. I'll give it to you later."
Ophis nodded and she turned into smoke, leaving the two to take care of the injured people.
This time, she reappeared a large hall with a single luxurious seat on the podium at the end of the hall. Ophis is not the only one inside the hall as there are multiple others waiting for her arrival, "Welcome back, Ouroboros Dragon-sama." One of the figures greeted her with mock respect but Ophis is too innocent to notice this.
Ignoring them, Ophis slowly walked towards the podium and sat down on the only seat. She didn't say anything and only waited for them to talk. The rest didn't mind this as she never voiced out her thoughts even though she's the leader of their organization.

Savage Hunters
Giant monsters roam the land Civilization is frozen in a savage age. For the beast slayer Alden, power and survival are one and the same. The ancient evil that once ravaged his village and murdered his ancestors has returned. At the same time, politics hurls Alden and his crew into gladiator pit battles for control of the throne. When Alden takes possession of a cursed sword promising untold power, the hunter is determined to save his people by slaying every giant monster standing between him and the throne. But the angry ghost trapped inside the blade has other ideas. Buckle up for the brutal LitRPG ride of a lifetime Savage Hunters is an alternate-world neolothic fantasy. Characters grow their powers with explicit stat blocks presented right in the text, including levels, attribute scores, and unlockable skill trees. Experience is accumulated by battling enormous monsters the size of buildings. Political intrigue and romance elements ramp up as the series progresses. I originally wrote this story after playing Monster Hunter with my niece. She was 12 at the time, already an avid reader, and wanted to read my other published books. I'm a licensed psychotherapist specializing in severe trauma so I tend toward darker fiction. I told her my usual books are too brutal for her but I'd write her something special. The result was this series, which has been praised by both teens and adults for its depth and universal appeal. It begins with an emphasis on cultural elements because I consulted with a trained anthropologist to craft this neolithic setting down to exacting social detail. After these opening chapters, it rapidly shifts to an action-packed adventure. The first 3 books are fully written as of November 2020, totalling approximately 69 chapters. The first book has been professionally edited already. The following two books require some editing which I'll do on a chapter-by-chapter basis as releases progress. I welcome reviews and comments. Writing is a passion, and reader engagement makes my labor all the sweeter.
