After being dragged into the lobby, Kisuke was now sitting in front of Loki who had a large smile on her face, "I'd never thought that you'd be that happy to see me. The current situation must be vexing you to no end."
While the drinks were being served, Loki's smile grew even wider, and said, "I too, never thought I'd be ecstatic to see your face. And you're right, it's annoying me to no end and I can't do anything worthwhile about it. Although it surprised me too that you came here openly."
Kisuke thanked the server and replied, "I have no reason to hide. I'm not a criminal, after all."
Loki then opened her eyes slightly before saying, "In her eyes, she begs to differ."
But immediately after, Loki shrugged her shoulders, moving the conversation, "Since you came here out in the open, it meant that you didn't need my assistance or whatsoever. So why have you come here instead of confronting her?"
This time, it was Kisuke's turn to shrug his shoulders, "I'd only cause a commotion before I could even reach her. And no way I'm going to sneak into her place since I'll only interrupt her flirting time. She might go insane in my presence and unleash her minions on my way in droves. Nothing good would come out of it if that were to happen."
"So you came here to wait for her to come to you instead?"
Kisuke grinned and answered, "I might as well check the state of things here. It looks interesting, in any case~."
Loki leaned back and sighed, "As long as you don't involve them later, you're welcome to stay here. Though I doubt you'll be waiting for that long."
Seeing that it was a good time, Finn who has been behind Loki all this time along with Riveria asked, "Loki, isn't it about time that you introduce us to this gentleman?"
"His name is Kisuke Urahara, a friend, though a nasty one. That's really all you need to know about him."
"My~ Loki-sama, that isn't a nice way to introduce someone~."
If it's a friend in Loki's dictionary, no matter what kind, then Finn knew that he won't be a detriment to the Familia as he knew how rare Loki would refer to someone as a 'friend'. Even most of the fellow Deities that were close to her couldn't make Loki accept them as a friend, but more like an acquaintance or an accomplice.
Though Finn is quite concerned with the content of their conversation and the fact that he's staying for an unknown amount of time, 'Lysa is fine since most of the town is already aware that Ais tamed a baby Dragon, but if by any chance that he discovers Filvis Chalia's inhuman nature, it would be difficult to tell if we could still trust him.'
Finn then turned to Riveria to ask for her opinion but he saw her making a weird expression and asked, "What's wrong, Riveria? Do you know him?"
Finn's question made Riveria jump a little and she hurriedly shook her head, "It's nothing. I just thought that he's somewhat familiar but I couldn't remember where I've met him.", turning to Kisuke, Riveria continued, "Excuse me, but have we met before?"
Instead of Kisuke, however, Loki was the one who answered while chuckling, "You've certainly met him before, alright? It's just that you already forgot about him."
"I already forgot? I'm sorry but someone as striking as him should have stayed in my memory if I have even a bit of an encounter.", Riveria isn't just asking about it because she didn't believe Loki but because every time she looks into his eyes, a weird feeling raises up from her chest and would slightly heat up her face. She wanted to get into the bottom of this, 'I certainly don't have any memory of him... But what is this...? It's as if I'm forgetting something incredibly important... I don't like it.'
Of course, she did her best to use her most famous poker face and didn't let out any of her suspicions to show, except, Loki was able to see through it quite easily.
Kisuke, on the other hand, was already thinking of ways to tick this High-Elf that had already forgotten about him in an attempt to see how strong the actual hypnotism is when he heard whispers from the door and turned towards it seeing Tiona, Tione, Bete, Raul, Annakitty, and Alicia.
"So, what do you think?", asked Tione.
Tiona looked at her in confusion and asked, "About what?"
"You know what I mean! Loki never has been excited at the arrival of a man! And she clearly shouted for everyone to hear that she missed him!"
"...So what does that mean?"
Tione sighed and almost forgot that this pure battle junkie sister of hers has the same knowledge of romance as a toddler, "Forget it! Bete! What about you? What do you think of him? I think he's Loki's previous lover, or at least they had history!"
Bete looked at her expectant eyes with a disgusted expression, "Why do you think I care about any of that? All I can say is that I don't like that guy. Something about him ticks me off but I can't put my finger on it... Tiona, why don't you smack his head? His smile especially annoys me."
"Why don't you do that yourself? If you really want to kiss Riveria's staff."
Even with their low voices, the four inside could still hear them quite clearly. While Finn was sighing, Riveria's brow was twitching, but aside from that there's nothing else from her.
Loki and Kisuke, meanwhile, both have dumbfounded expressions, "Does it look that way?", the latter asked.
Loki then put her hand on her face in surrender, "Don't mind it. They are the worst people to judge a man and woman's relationship."
A few moments later, a new group of people appeared behind Tione's group and the one holding onto a small white Dragon asked, "What's going on? Who came?"
Tione, Tiona, Bete, Raul, Anakitty, and Alicia turned around to look at the group who had just gone shopping, Ais, Lysa, Lefiya, and the masked Filvis.
Thanks to the shifting, however, the little Dragon got a direct line of sight of Kisuke. She stared at him for a few seconds, making sure that she's not seeing the wrong person, and started squirming within Ais' arms when she was able to confirm it.
Lysa's sudden violent movement caught Ais off-guard and inadvertently let her go as she flew straight to Kisuke at a blinding speed, "Lysa!?"
No one was able to stop her at her sudden flight and when Finn and Riveria noticed that a white silhouette charging straight to Kisuke seemingly with full intention to cause harm, it was already too late, "Watch out!"
Beyond their expectations, however, Kisuke just slightly shifted his head without ever turning his head and as the little Dragon flew past by him, his right hand shot out, grabbing the creature's tail, stopping its trail.
Kisuke then raised the Dragon in front of him and said, "Oi little lizard. Since when did you develop the guts to attack me from behind? Do you want to experience high-speed flight once again? This time, let's do ten times as fast. I know you'd enjoy it."
The gleeful Dragon who knew that she couldn't hurt Kisuke even if her attack was successful became horrified and hurriedly shook her upside-down head in panic, [Aria!]
"And shouldn't you have already learned an extra word or two? On another note, you're a lot heavier now too."
[Ariaaa!!!]
"What? You're growing? You certainly became a bit longer, but not as much as you've become wider."
[Aria! Aria! Ariaaaa!!!]
Kisuke ignored that protesting Dragon and turned to Loki, "Aren't you pampering her too much? You ought to make her work too."
