Playing With Other Supernaturals

"A new room?" Koneko muttered as they enter.

"Yes~!" Hestia happily answered, "Kisuke-kun said that since I'm a Goddess that represents the Hearth, he created this place for me~!"

"Oh, you're home. How's today?" Kisuke came from behind them, still with a bath towel on top of his head since he just came out of the bath.

"It's great. We get to practice my magic and their Flash Step." Sona answered happily.

"Looks like you had fun," Kisuke smiled and patted her head.

"Yep~." With a big smile on her face, she enjoyed Kisuke's warm hands.

"That's unfair! We also worked hard!" Aika immediately protested at the difference in treatment and Koneko nodded vigorously.

Kisuke only smiled and gave them their head pats, "Good work out there~."

"...Say... I've been curious all this while..." Hestia suddenly spoke while watching them, "What's your relationship? I know Kisuke-kun and Yoruichi-kun were couples, but what about the others?"

"Ah... About that..." But before Kisuke could explain himself, the three girls simultaneously answered, "Harem."

"I see... Ha..." Hestia was about to put the cookie in her mouth but not expecting such answer, she dropped the cookie and exclaimed, "Harem!? You mean all of you are his wife!?"

Even Kisuke didn't know how he would deny that when the three of them answered so surely, "Ehem... Anyway, Medusa and I will be coming with you tomorrow. We also need to raise our parameters." He changed the topic instead.

"W-wait! Answer my question!" Hestia is still not satisfied.

But this time, Sona decided to help him since he didn't deny anything today like what he's doing in the past, "Sure. But we have a bit of situation here."

"Hmm? What is it?" Kisuke happily asked.

"Uhmm... Hey? Why are you ignoring me?" Hestia muttered from the background.

"We accepted someone else in our party," Aika answered Kisuke's question, still ignoring Hestia.

"Hmmph, fine! If you don't want to answer, then don't! No need to ignore me!" Hestia then started sulking on the sofa while nibbling on her cookies.

Kisuke could only smile wryly at her actions, "Hestia-sama, stop eating those snacks for now. It'll spoil your appetite for dinner. Medusa is cooking some food and should be done any minute now."

Hearing that, Hestia immediately stopped sulking and finished the cookie in her hand before setting aside the rest, "Great! I look forward to it!" She then happily ran towards the dining room.

"So you decided to add someone to your party... That's a lot earlier than I thought... But that's fine." Kisuke resumed their conversation.

"You're already expecting it?"

"Of course. And I did tell you it's fine to make friends. Aside from that, you guys are still practicing and I doubt you'll ask for potions from me when it seems you're trying to be independent. However, potions are not enough or too expensive for your team, so I thought that you'd hire a healer sooner or later. Although I have some concerns about the trustworthiness of that person, I trust that you three can help each other figure out the other party."

"...Are you stalking us, Kisuke-senpai?" Koneko suddenly said.

Kisuke only chuckled at her words, "Hehe, so I got it right."

"...You're really terrifying..." Sona muttered, "I also want to learn that..."

"It'll take you some time," Kisuke replied.

"Time is what I have the most... Remember, I'm a Devil."

"Right. By the way, here," Kisuke then passed them potions, "Drink it."

Receiving one bottle for each of them, Aika asked, "This is?"

"It's a medicine that I based on this world's high-quality potions. Those things are amazing. It's really hard to believe that they managed to create something like that. But I guess this is thanks to Falna and Developmental Ability, Mixing, which should be the acc.u.mulation of an insane amount of data and passing it to the skill user through the subconscious part of the mind."

"Right... We don't really understand... What will this do to us?" Aika ignored his rumbling as he would continue forever if entertained.

"I modified it so that it helps you guys with your specific conditions. Although this will cure some of the problems in your body, it's mostly for stabilizing your conditions for better treatment in the future. I would also like to get a hold on to those highest quality Elixirs first before I start your treatment in earnest."

Hearing that, the three immediately drunk the potions for them.

"Good. Then going back to the topic. You hired a healer?"

"Yes," Sona answered after wondering why the potion is strawberry flavored, 'Did he really needed to do that?'

"How's she?"

"How did you know she's a girl?" Koneko asked.

"Would you accept a man in your party?"

The three thought about it and instantly rejected that idea. Aside from the fact that they already dedicated themselves to Kisuke, they didn't want other men entering their mini girl group.

"Her personality resembles Asia Argento but she's not naive and she gives a more mature feeling than her," Sona answered.

"And I assume that she already knows about you guys controlling Mana directly."

"Yes... Watching her expression change from this to that is fun..." Aika answered him this time.

"Due to her circ.u.mstances, we managed to strike a deal with her and asked her to join our party to heal us in exchange for teaching her how to control magic directly or even modifying it. And in addition to that, I also promised her that I would introduce her to a doctor that can teach her medicine and healing magic." Sona added.

"A doctor? Who?"

Sona looked at her in confusion, "Huh? Aren't you a capable doctor? You can treat us, after all."

"Listen here, lady... I'm a candy store owner and not a doctor... I won't change my profession... Ever." Kisuke answered with all seriousness.

"...I'm sorry that I ask." Sona finally recalled how he seems so proud as a candy store retailer when he's clearly not good at it, 'He can earn a lot more if he just scams people...'

Sona then proceeds to tell Kisuke Line's story.

"Hmmm... Someone with an interest in medical knowledge... I'd like to see her for myself first. And if she's really good that like you describe her, then maybe I'll teach her the few things that I know."

"You can save someone extremely poisoned and on the cliff of death... But you only knew a few things?"

"I'm a storekeeper, a businessman and not a doctor or a medical expert," Kisuke emphasized his profession again as if becoming something else besides a candy storekeeper is a great downgrade.

The next morning, Sona, Aika, Koneko, and now with new additions, Kisuke and Medusa met Line in front of the fountain near the tower of Babel.

"Nice to meet you, Arshe-san. I heard a lot about you from the girls. I'm Kisuke Urahara, the captain of Hestia Familia, and this is Medusa. We'll join you for today's exploration."

Line is a bit shocked when someone else will be joining them today but still greeted them properly, "Good morning, Kisuke-san. I'm Line Arshe from Loki Familia. Nice to meet you too."
