"How?" asked Azazel
"Hmm?"
"How did you get information from that newly established group?"
"If you think it's a new group, then you're wrong. Aside from that, is that important?"
Azazel became silent for a moment before sighing, "Nope, it isn't. I'm just curious." He then put both of his elbows on the table and muttered, "So it's not a new group. It could mean that they've been moving around for a while now. Our initial assumption of their influence was wrong."
Sirzechs then spoke up, "So Rizevim wanted to invade someplace, but where is this place? If it's just invading, Trihexa is too much unless he wants to take over the whole world."
Kisuke nodded at him, "True. But I'll get more into that later after the next piece of information."
"Please go on."
Before speaking, Kisuke took out a small bottle that contained a small pink orb, "That's..." Issei murmured under his breath.
Seeing Issei's reaction, everyone got curious and waited for Kisuke to speak up, "I just got this from Ddraig-san earlier."
"Then when you said you wanted to talk to Issei alone..."
"Yes. I wanted to confirm some of my assumptions. Now to explain, this marble is the remnant energy of a being that introduced itself as Chichigami. You all probably already knew about it."
"May I take a closer look?" asked Sirzechs.
Without any word, Kisuke made the bottle float towards Sirzechs side. Sirzechs grabbed it and inspected it before placing it in front of Ajuka's hologram. A second later, a magic circle appeared in front of the hologram and the bottle was teleported to Ajuka himself. Same with Sirzechs, he inspected it quietly before sending it back, "And what about this Chichigami?" asked Ajuka.
"Well, you might already have an inkling to where this 'God' came from and I can assure you that it's beyond the boundaries of the Dimensional Gap."
Since Ajuka already guessed that this is the case and already warned everyone, they weren't as shocked, "We know that much, but it seems that you know more than we do. What else is about this Chichigami?"
"I just discovered a few things after I inspected it. From that remnant energy, I can tell that it's a type of spiritual being, but that's not all. Within this, there are other energies mixed in, and one of them is particularly special."
For the first time, Ajuka felt intrigued, "Hmm? But I didn't notice anything like that."
"It's true that my expertise is on souls, but 'souls' for me are anything that is made out of spiritual particles and not just the souls that go through reincarnation. As such, I have a bit of confidence with my eyes regarding this."
"Hmm... Then tell us what's so special about this."
"Yep, but before that, I want you to know something," Kisuke then faced Issei, "Issei, why did this Chichigami bless you with its powers?"
"Ah... Err... It's because of my love for boobs."
While Odin, Azazel, Yuuto, Bikou, Le Fay, and Benia started chuckling, the rest could only let out a defeated sigh.
However, Kisuke knew that they wouldn't have this kind of reaction later and continued, "Crossing worlds, even though it's just some thought or message, is incredibly hard. Based on my calculations, even someone like Ophis and Great Red would need an 'anchor' to the target world to even access it. Knowing this, I believe that this Chichigami was indeed able to contact Issei through his 'will' or 'love for boobs'."
Kisuke then addressed Ddraig, "Ddraig-san, please tell everyone here what's the estimated power level of this 'God'."
From Issei's left hand, Ddraig's deep voice resounded to everyone in the room, "Just below Ophis and Great Red."
Hearing this, Azazel and Ajuka's eyes widened as they got a clue to what Kisuke was trying to say.
Kisuke smiled at them and said, "It seems that these gentlemen here already knew what I wanted to say~."
Everyone looked around and saw Azazel and Ajuka making serious faces, "If such a 'God' exists, then a 'Gods' of Thighs, Midriffs, or Butt are also highly probable," muttered Ajuka with a serious expression.
Azazel, on the other hand, gritted his teeth, "It sounds incredibly stupid... But thinking about the implication of this, it isn't even funny. It's outright horrifying. If this Chichigami is really just below Ophis and Great Red, then it's already the most powerful being outside of them. And multiple of these 'Gods'?... Wait..." He then had a sudden realization, "If the other energies mixed in were the related 'Gods', what about the special one?"
Azazel's question sent shivers to everyone.
"It's a higher-tier of being than Chichigami," answered Kisuke.
Azazel sucked in a cold breath and the room became dead silent.
Kisuke then shrugged his shoulders and broke the silence, "Well, I don't have much data so I could have interpreted this wrong. For all we know, Chichigami couldn't have contacted Issei herself but sent an emissary to do it which makes the special energy Chichigami herself. Though that doesn't change the fact that a being out there that could possibly as strong as the two strongest beings in this world exist and we don't know how many exactly."
Azazel sighed, "Haah... So this is what you meant we're in a graver situation. I don't want to call you paranoid but I personally think that you're overthinking this."
"I sure do hope so since I always think about the worst possible situation," However, Kisuke's eyes suddenly narrowed, "However, I never told you that this is the reason why I thought that we're in a graver situation."
"..." Azazel stayed silent.
"Once worlds are connected, it's impossible to sever their connections anymore and communication between two will be a lot easier," added Kisuke. This is the main reason why Kisuke took great care in hiding the traces of the world he went to and moved to Mars, "Since you figured out that Chichigami isn't from this world, other myths should have done the same thing."
"Now, the next thing I'll say is merely my own speculations so take it with a grain of salt. What if Rizevim didn't declare his intent, not because he discovered the other world, but he already declared war on the other side? Although it's unlikely, it's possible. That would mean that those from this world already became the enemy of that side whether you like it or not."
"In comparison, Rizevim releasing Trihexa is very mild compared to beings on the same level of Ophis and Great Red invading this world. Hence, we might be in a graver situation than I initially thought."
The cold atmosphere within the room became even worse.
"B-but it's still very unlikely, right?" asked Gabriel, "Although you said it's a lot easier, it should still not be that easy. And just what is the possibility that Rizevim already contacted the other side before even amassing his army and releasing Trihexa?"
But instead of Kisuke, Ajuka replied to her, "Qlippoth is composed of those exiled from many Factions and a number of them are those expelled due to their willingness to delve into forbidden topics and initiate atrocious experiments. It is safe to think that they already found a way to communicate to the other side if what he said is true." He then faced Kisuke, "Aside from that, please tell me this. Do you have a way to contact the other side?"
Kisuke answered with a big smile, "As I said, it's relatively easy. Even now, I could use some technique to reach the being that contacted Issei by using the remnants of the connection."
"Seriously...?" muttered Serafall.
"And not just that... Knowing Rizevim and how crazy he could be, it's also highly probable that he already contacted the other side if he could," added Sirzechs.
