Chapter 1083 Lullaby

 

Ajuka led Kisuke to the hole the latter created when he first intruded into the barrier and said, "I can't go in with you because I'm controlling parts of the barrier. Go meet Azazel and Sirzechs while you're at it."

Kisuke didn't say anything and reopened the hole he created but just as he was about to enter, Ajuka added, "By the way, take care of Serafall. She's annoying but she's still a good friend of mine."

Kisuke turned around and saw that Ajuka already started walking away. Kisuke stared at his back for a bit and thought, 'Must be hard being stuck in such a hard place.' Kisuke smiled and stepped into the barrier, 'Oh well, it was his choice and I have no say in it.'

As soon as he went through the film of the barrier, Kisuke immediately heard the loud roars of Trihexa and he saw that the seal he placed on it the last time he was here had already deteriorated. Around the chimeric immortal monster were the top warriors that chose to seal themselves along with it to stop it from resurfacing.

Naturally, all the people inside the barrier felt his presence and some of them were already making their way toward him.

[What do you think?] Kisuke asked Tiamat.

[It's indeed that child... Or should I say, children?] Tiamat muttered.

[Let me hear about it later.]

[It's a very unsavory story.]

[Looking at it now, I wouldn't expect anything else.] Kisuke then pulled out the tanto from her sheath, [Don't let anyone see your Shikai form.]

"Descend, Tiamat."

Those who were approaching Kisuke immediately stopped as he released a massive amount of Reiatsu and Ki. At that moment, everyone became witness to his tanto dagger transforming into a young girl with light blue hair, pink eyes with star-like pupils, and prominent horns. However, none of the seal's inhabitants could properly observe the little girl since the moment her presence was felt, the Trihexa suddenly stopped its struggle, causing confusion among their ranks.

The beast with characteristics coming from different animals like a lion, a leopard, a bear, a dragon, and more, began rushing towards Tiamat. Due to its size that's well over several hundred meters, huge winds were kicked up and pushed those around it while it roared through its seven heads.

[I require more, master.]

[Take as much as you need.] Kisuke replied to Tiamat and poured his power into her.

The next instant, Tiamat released a blinding light that covered the whole world inside the barrier. When the light subsided, the little girl changed.

Azazel, who was one of the people approaching Kisuke, froze on the spot while muttering, "...What the hell?"

The little girl had grown into an adult woman of unparalleled beauty. However, this was not the most striking change but her size now matched the charging beast.

As the Trihexa didn't stop its charge, it soon reached the gigantic Tiamat. Nevertheless, Tiamat was unfazed as she spread out her arms and received the 'child' into her embrace.

Their meeting caused a massive shockwave that shook the entire realm. A few seconds later, however, the tremors stopped. The rampaging beast stopped its struggle as Tiamat wrapped her arms around it and started humming to it.

Sirzechs and the other people within the barrier converged around Azazel and said, "...Is she singing a lullaby?"

While no one could answer him, it was pretty obvious what the giant woman was trying to do and it was clearly working, "But how?"

"Don't just use your eyes and ears. Feel the aura she's releasing." Azazel instructed, "While most of it is similar to Kisuke Urahara, the giant horned woman is also releasing a similar aura as the Trihexa."

The chaos inside of the barrier became quiet for the first time since it was created.

Half an hour later, the Trihexa completely settled down, unmoving, and some snoring sound that made all these things feel unreal to everyone else watching.

Tiamat had done her job and soon transformed back into a tanto dagger and flew back to Kisuke, [I've imprinted Ajuka Beelzebub, Shiva, and Indra's images in his head and the moment he is woken up, they'll be the first one he's going to seek. If you want to completely wake him up from his madness, my sister will have the answer.]

Kisuke put her back into her sheath and kept her inside his sleeve, [Thank you for your hard work.] He then saw the people inside the barrier slowly approach him. But instead of greeting them, he first opened the hole he went through when he came inside.

"Greetings ladies and gentlemen. I know you have a lot of questions but please be informed that I have no obligation to answer any of them. What's important is that the Trihexa has already gone into a very deep slumber and will not wake up unless a specific method is used."

"Does that mean we don't have to fight anymore?" One of the trapped Gods asked.

Kisuke smiled at him and said, "Precisely. I've already talked to Beelzebub-sama about this and all of you are already free to go. I know you're already missing your families, friends, and comrades."

They all looked at each other but soon, another God stepped up and said, "I don't know what you did but if you already confirmed it to Ajuka, we'll leave first. My small faction needs all the manpower they could get. Thank you very much."

The God who just spoke flew towards the hole that Kisuke created along with the Deities in his faction and thanked him as they passed by him.

Soon, the other factions started doing the same thing and left in a hurry while promising various rewards and gifts to Kisuke for what he has done. They don't know what he did nor do they know who the woman was, but the very eventful years of the past made them very anxious for their respective factions and that's the highest order of priority for them.

After a while, it was just those who were relatively close to Kisuke who remained, namely, Azazel, Sirzechs, and Zeus.

"You did something outrageous once again..." Azazel came to him with a wry smile.

"If you're out of this place, you'll have to do one or two outrageous things with how complicated the world currently is."

Azazel looked at Sirzech and Zeus who were making the same blank face as him, "I do not wish to remember our time here with longing, but with how you're making it sound, is the outside a hellscape?"

"Not quite but everyone is trying to yank benefits from everything they can get ahold of."

"Sounds very tiring..." Sirzechs muttered.

"Hey, at least you have a new nephew that you can look forward to~!"

Upon hearing that, Sirzechs' face beamed, "That's right, isn't it!? I've also missed my son's growing period so I'm looking forward to what he's like right now."

Zeus, on the other hand, murmured in jealousy, "Good for you..." He has a feeling that only problems will welcome him at home, 'Well, at least the rotten part was already largely removed.'

The four of them indulged in small talks for a quarter of an hour before Sirzechs and Zeus also left, leaving Azazel alone with Kisuke.

The moment they were alone, Azazel immediately established a telepathic connection with Kisuke and said, [I also don't know what Ajuka is trying to achieve with Shiva and Indra.]

[Ho~? Is that supposed to get my trust?]

Azazel shook his head, [Of course not. I'm just letting out my frustration that I'm behind everything.]

[What do you want?] Kisuke immediately went straight to the point.

[Introduce me to an Etoulde or Evie.]

Kisuke's eyes went wide open from surprise and asked, [What sort of mental gymnastics did you go through to arrive at that conclusion?]

Azazel looked straight into his eyes with a big smile on his face, [The sort of mental gymnastics that would allow me to do something in the current world.]
