While the former Fallen Angel Governor and the Devil King were still stunned, Kisuke walked away from them, "W-wait!"
But before they could catch up, Kisuke ignored them and locked himself up inside his laboratory. A few more calls came outside of his door but Kisuke just hummed while working on his console. Soon enough, the noises stopped and he could tell that the two were convening the others that probably knew about the future Gasper Vladi.
'They'll be more careful around me, but that should allow more freedom on my side and they should be able to start working on their own.' Kisuke thought to himself while also thinking more about his conversation with his mother earlier. Since he was immediately approached after the call, he wasn't able to properly sit down and think about the implications of the 'future Gasper Vladi'.
'If my first guess is that this Gasper Vladi is just telling them that they exist by providing information that isn't available everywhere else is true, then perhaps, someone is really trying to cross to this world from theirs...' Kisuke scratched his head, 'How troublesome... Those transformers are already a big pain in the ass... Oh well, it'll be interesting for sure and maybe, their involvement will open up some new avenues.'
It wasn't just the names but also some of the abilities that were revealed to Sakura by Yasaka and the most troublesome of them are definitely from their ruler of the beings known as Evie, Melvazoa, The Malevolent God, 'Every encounter with that guy was predicted and he seems to know everything that's to know. Lastly, he calls his ability 'Omnipresence'.'
'If we're going against a guy like that, I'd definitely need the information from the 'future'.' Kisuke stopped moving his hands for a moment and directed his thoughts to another path, 'I thought the help of that world would be enough, but it looks like I severely underestimated these aliens. Looks like I have to put more focus back on 'that'.'
Resuming his work, a strange glint passed through Kisuke's eyes as he rearranged his priorities, 'If I'm successful, it may take a few years for me to come back... I have to prepare everything before that.'
Kisuke's head ached as he thought about the things he had to do, 'I definitely don't have enough time to do all of this.'

A week went by and obvious movements from the Alliance were observed in their attempt to find this world's intruders. But no matter what they did, the only thing they're able to gather are the reports of sightings. But even then, most of them were false positives and all the good reports were short glances. Nevertheless, they were able to confirm Kisuke's information, and those in the higher-ups were appalled with his ability to gather intelligence.
Never could they have imagined that his informants are self-proclaimed Magical Girls.
[Beep] [Beep] [Beep]
[What's going on!?] Xins, a 3-star Evie that's currently tasked to lead their mothership, 'Lavanda', came rushing into the command deck after hearing the alarm system going off.
[We have intruders in section C5-14. According to the initial readings, they are most probably the same people that were brought in last time.], one of the Evie tapping away on the screen replied.
[What!? How was that possible!? We already deployed an anti-teleportation system and moved to the outer regions of this star system!]
The Evie shook his head, [Unknown at this point. But the model predicted that they must have left an undetected mark on the ship before they escaped. Even until now, we still don't understand what sort of technique they used to teleport away.]
A blueprint of the entire Lavanda was displayed on the large screen and Xins saw five glowing red dots on the tail end part of it, [Deploy Team 3 and 8 to intercept them. The rest are to monitor any signals they are going to send outside and watch out for any reinforcement. Do we still have no way of contacting Sir Bebevu Su or Sir Gvardora?]
The Evie he's talking to shook his head, [Sending in Team 3 and 8. Still radio silent. They are probably deflecting any signals coming to them since the inhabitants of this planet began a blanket search for 'mechanical lifeforms'.]
[What are the chances of this being because of our current guests?]
[I'd say around 30%.]
[That low?]
[Yes. We have been operating on the surface for some time now and they might have noticed a few traces of our existence. No matter how hard we try to cover our tracks, we have no way of erasing it, especially now that we're searching for the 'Servant Maiden'.]
Xins became silent for a moment before adding, [Remind the Team 3 and 8 to watch out for any markings that they may make. We can't have them intrude again if they were to escape.]
[Roger.]

"We're back?" Claire asked while looking around. She then turned around towards the other girls in a similar Magical Girl outfit as her and also looked around, "How's breathing?"
Everyone checked their breathing and nodded.
"Great. As we've planned, we'll run forward for about 5 minutes and retreat. If it becomes dangerous we'll retreat earlier. Kunou-chan, please focus on mapping the area."
Kunou nodded and said, "Leave it to me. There's almost no Ki in here so that's going to be easy."
After a round of checks, the Magical Girls started running forward with Ophis in front and Lilith at the back. Their main goal is to find what's in this place and if there were any other captives that they needed to save.
And just a few moments later, they came into a junction and numerous Evies began pouring out. Putting out a barrier in front of them, Ophis just came crashing in and tossed the Evies away from them without them being able to do anything significant.
Another group of Evies came chasing from behind but Lilith could cover that with her sturdy barrier that the Magic Power Guns they were using couldn't hope to puncture.
Meanwhile, Claire and Tanis were just doing whatever they wanted as they moved. As they knew that there were no other Humans around them, they just started making holes through the metal ceiling, floor, and walls which made the 'robots' cry out loud.
Blasting open the floor, Claire found another hallway and said, "Let's go down~!"
With her cue, the Magical Girls jumped down and started running forward again.
That day, the Evies could only cry as they watched their ship being destroyed from the inside while trying to catch these intruders to no avail.
