Playing With Other Supernaturals

Chapter 1147 Bluff

As the air rapidly grew colder and a freezing wind blasted out from Serafall, pushing back everything around her, the Demonic Power she had been holding back immediately covered everything within this artificial space. Although it didn't have the same weighing effect as this world's Reiatsu, the aura Serafall was emitting is enough to give everyone a premonition of death.

"Just so you know, I didn't erect that barrier just to protect them from you two, but mostly so that they won't freeze to death once we started." Serafall explained as crystals of ice started forming in the air itself and breathing became harder and painful, "Do you still want to continue?"

Isshin, Gin, and Choujirou could protect themselves from the cold thanks to their own Reiatsu, however, they were still frozen in place because they had absolutely no idea what she was truly capable of, 'This is on par with Shiro-kun's Bankai in its final stage... Yet she's only excluding this strange pressure and is not yet doing anything substantial...', Gin thought to himself and started weighing his options.

Gin then looked at Choujirou who had been impatient until now, 'Looks like he'll be easier to reason with now. Well, it's hard to control one's emotions because of those chains.'

"Sasakibe-san... I think it's better to sit down now than not return at all." Gin softly said, "Let's prioritize our goal."

Choujirou tightened his hold on his Zanpakuto and clenched his teeth hard, "...But..."

"How much time do you have?" Serafall suddenly asked.

Gin turned to her while shaking his head and sheathing his sword, "We don't know. It could be a month from now on or even this instant."

"Then there's no point in thinking about it more than you should." Serafall's Demonic Power immediately returned back to her and the rapidly dropping temperature of the surroundings stopped and began normalizing. She then snapped her fingers and a Magic Circle appeared in between the two groups.

A second later, a 15 feet by 15 feet tatami floor with a table and 4 cushions on top of it appeared in place of the Magic Circle.

Serafall led by example, flying towards the floating floor and sat down on one of the cushions. And while at it, she also summoned some snacks to the table, "If it is not too much, maybe I'll be able to provide some advice. Not to brag, but I have a lot of things inside this head of mine that no normal person could possess... But that's only if you'll sit down too and let me hear you out."

Choujirou let out a deep breath before he loosened his grip on his sword and sheathed it. After hesitating for a bit, he walked forward and removed his sandals before stepping into the tatami mat and kneeling down on the opposite side of Serafall.

Isshin and Gin looked at each other and soon followed suit.

With everyone already properly sitting down and hostilities at the lowest level, Serafall internally sighed in relief, 'Thank goodness they didn't start fighting.'

While the device that Kisuke created to instantly deploy a Rating Game Field is useful, it's only designed for recreational purposes as it does not possess the same integrity and durability as a full-blown Field. Serafall secretly checked the status of the Field and found out that she almost broke it just by releasing her Demonic Power.

'Besides...' Serafall took a peak at the man beside her staring daggers at the visitors from Hell, 'He easily dispelled the freezing air. Looks like he has something like an opposite attribute to me and if we were to fight, it was going to be hard to deal with him.'

"Alright. Since we don't have much time, let's get to the main topic and hear it."

Although Gin knew why they were there, he let the man beside him explain it since the request came from him, "Eijisai... Yamamoto-dono needs his chains to be taken off. If not done soon enough, he'll lose control of himself and destroy everything around him... And that destruction might reach the Human World."

"And you think Kazui-chan will be able to do that?"

"He's the one who protects those who entered Hell from its punishment, isn't he?" Gin answered.

"So you've been in the Human World for quite some time that you're able to spy on their activities?"

Gin didn't answer.

"I'm interested in how you were able to hide yourself, how you were able to leave Hell despite being Unchained, and how you were able to find out about Kazui-chan, but I guess your issue comes first." Serafall tapped the table and another Magic Circle appeared. The next second, a holographic image of those inside the Kurosaki Household, "Kazui-chan, you there?"

The image of Inoue, Yuzu, and Karin appeared to be shocked but Kazui immediately appeared in view, [Sera-neechan? Are you calling for me?]

"Yep~. I just have a question. Do you think you can remove those black chains from the bad guys?"

Without hesitation, everyone saw Kazui shake his head, [No.]

Choujirou immediately slammed the table upon hearing that, sending the snacks flying all around and demolishing the table, "That can't be!"

But Serafall just nonchalantly ignored him and waved goodbye to Kazui, "Is that so? Then that's all~. Continue to behave and stay with your mother, alright? I'll give you special snacks later~" Without asking any further questions, she immediately closed the connection and their image immediately disappeared, "And there you have it. He can't do what you want to happen."

Choujirou stood up in a rage, "But he hasn't even tried it yet! How do you know if he can't do it!?"

Isshin placed his hand on his Zanpakuto and got ready to pull it out any second and that's the same for Gin.

Still remaining calm, Serafall answered with an unhurried tone, "That's because that's just how that kid operates. He doesn't even know when he's capable of what he's doing nor how he's doing it, yet he knows he can do it somehow. Don't you think it's fair to assume that he can't do what he knows he can't do?"

"...Then we don't have any choice." Choujirou also placed his hand on his Zanpakuto.

But before he could pull it out, Serafall suddenly turned to Gin and asked, "This Yamamoto-dono that you're talking about, is he the former Captain Commander?"

Gin nodded silently.

"Then did you hide him?"

Gin and Choujirou's eyes widened at her question and that's enough to answer it.

"No wonder there's no progress on their side," Serafall muttered to herself.

"What do you mean?"

Serafall casually stood up and snapped her fingers again. The next instant, a flash of light blinded everyone again and everything went to normal before they were all transported back to the real world.

Gin, Choujirou, and Isshin were startled when they found themselves standing in the yard and inside the house respectively while Serafall nonchalantly made her way toward Kazui and met his eyes at the same level, "Kazui-chan, I have another favor. Could you open the door to that town?"

"But I need to go to the shrine."

"It's fine. I already connected that place to here. All you need to do is perform the ritual." Serafall patted his head, 'If my conjecture is true and my setup is correct, he should be able to open it. And if he can open it, then that would mean [Hell] is of Divine nature.'
