Playing With Other Supernaturals Chapter 620

Syr rested her chin on her right arm and asked, "Such as?"
"One of those was to confirm my guesses."
"What I just did for you. What else?"
"Also to ask you to promise not to interfere with my girls."
"..." Syr pouted her mouth, "Say, what do you think of me? Be honest."
Kisuke stared straight into her eyes and with a straight face, he answered without any hesitation, "A perverted stalker."
Syr's face instantly crumpled up. She never would have thought that someone who knew her true identity would say that to her face. Unfortunately, although it was for her 'love', if one were to indeed describe her past actions, 'perverted stalker' would be a very term and she couldn't refute it, "...Can't you word that in a nicer way?"
"I can reword it, but not nicely. How about a deviant observer?"
Syr's face crumpled even more.
"No? Then degenerate pursuer? Sicko chaser is also good."
At that description, Syr started waving her hand wildly at him, "Stop, stop, stop! That's enough! It's getting worse! I get it! I fully understand your impression of me!"
Kisuke stopped speaking and continued sipping on his hot chocolate.
Meanwhile, Syr could only sigh and just choose to move on, "And? Why would you think that I'm going to interfere with their activities?"
While looking at his cup, Kisuke muttered, "Because I have a feeling that you're slowly losing interest over that boy."
Syr's eyes widened for a moment before frowning, "What are you talking about?"
Stirring the cup, Kisuke continued, "You know what I'm talking about. He's bright, I give you that. He also has a lot of potentials, however, that's about it. On top of being naive and ambitionless, he's also chasing after a nonexistent back. Sooner or later, he'll also forget that goal and would be satisfied with the way things are."

"And even if you create an artificial stage for him to grow, you know that there are limits to that. You're also worried that you might overestimate him and just outright kill him."
"I see that you also have the ability to see souls. It's probably because of this that you were able to see through my 'avatar' and you're also probably the person you gave Bell that strange weapon." Syr then leaned back to her chair, "However, you're wrong about some things."
"Oh? Mind enlightening me to what those are?"
"First of all, despite describing him as an indecisive boy, his soul is still the most beautiful and clean one that I've ever seen. And if I accidentally kill him one day, then I'd just ascend back to Heaven and embrace his soul there."
Kisuke could only smile wryly at her response, "You're crazier than I thought."
"Compared to other Deities, I'm just above average."
"Then the Deities are crazier than I initially thought." If Hestia were to hear these words from his mouth, however, she'd point out that he's also above average. Then again, she hasn't experienced anything 'crazy' from Kisuke aside from pushing Sona, Koneko, and Aika to the verge of death.
"But I can now understand that we see souls differently. While you're more interested in 'beauty', I'm actually more interested in 'personality'. Describing it further, you're more interested in the 'destination' while I'm more interested in the 'journey'."
Kisuke had only ever seen a soul color similar to Bell's from two different individuals. First was Ichigo's soul, while the second one was Issei's soul. However, Ichigo's soul shined brightly when he was trying his best to protect the weak and those who are important to him. Issei's, on the other hand, shined brightly with his desires and ambitions. Meanwhile, despite being similar to those two, Bell's soul only shined. If Kisuke were to describe it, it didn't have any personality, or it hadn´t developed anything yet despite reaching this stage of life.

While thinking about that, Kisuke muttered, "Sure, his soul is an amazing sight, but it's also one of the most boring souls that I've ever seen."
For Kisuke it was just an honest opinion, but for Freya who was currently in Syr's appearance, it was an insult. An insult to her aesthetics.
Kisuke saw her expression and immediately said, "Before you misunderstand, I'm not saying that the way you look at things is bad. It's just that we have different perspectives in regards to this. It's the same as the saying 'one man's trash is another man's treasure'."
Syr was able to calm down after hearing that, "I'm sorry for such a display. I jumped to the wrong conclusion." While sighing, she added, "But boring, huh? Such brilliance is boring?"
"If it's just brilliance, then Cranel-san is just above average." When he thought about the characters that really shined, Bell Cranel fell far short in comparison to them. One example of it was Kenpachi with his blinding desire for battle.
Syr was shocked yet again. Even if Bell's 'color' was disregarded, his soul was still one of the brightest she had ever seen. For Kisuke to claim otherwise, she could only murmur, "Just what have you seen?"
"People who cultivated themselves beyond common sense. Unlike Bell, those people have 'flaws', but in my opinion, those 'flaws' are the things that pushed them to such heights. The 'flaws' that aren't needed to attain Godhood."
That statement from Kisuke immediately sent multiple meanings towards Syr, which she couldn't believe. First is the fact that she didn't catch any lies about Kisuke meeting such people and the second was the hint from him that he knew, or at least, had some clues on how to become a Deity.
For the first part, she still could believe it as she hadn't met all the people in the entire world. However, for the problematic second part, it was a secret that not all Deities were aware of and those who knew about it would keep it to themselves and never revealed it among the residents of the Lower World.
The biggest reason why Freya was very attracted to Bell was not just his 'color and brilliance' but his 'flawlessness' that could potentially earn him a seat among the Deities, which would allow him to stand equal with her.
If Kisuke knew the conditions to attain Godhood, it could also mean that someone had already succeeded, but no Deities were aware of it.
Such a thing would send waves to all those in Heaven and would start a brand new era, not just for Gods, but also Demigods.
For the first time, Syr couldn't keep her composure and stutter, "J-just what do you know? And what are you, really?"
