Kisuke didn't agree with Yoruichi but since there was still some time before he left Yoruichi told him to think more about it.
Yoruichi and Kisuke returned to the house where Serafall was preparing dinner. But before they could reach the house, the two of them felt several presences dashing towards them.
.

After Kisuke left the Gods, It just became an argument on how to 'convince' Kisuke's group to have a mutual front with them. But as the talks went on, and they couldn't think of any way to persuade them through words, Hermes, Kali, and Freya started suggesting methods on how to force them into a corner to make them move in the direction they wanted.
Since it became boring fast, Loki just decided to leave and after that, the Deities left one by one, not coming up with a single concrete solution to this problem.
"Alright~ You know where they are, right? Let's go." Loki asked Riveria while stretching her arms.
Riveria looked towards the direction Kisuke's group left and saw the minute traces of Magic Power they left behind through her 'eyes', "They're not that far but should we really leave? Wouldn't Finn want your opinion on what's happening?"
"It's fine. From now on, I'm hands-off. I will not influence what they want to do... At least I'll try to hold myself back."
Riveria looked into Loki's eyes and despite the casual tone she was using, she could tell that she was very serious about this, "Understood. Do you want to be carried in front or hop on my back?"
"The front, of course!"
But before Loki could jump on Riveria, two Goddesses approached with their children, "Do you mind us going with you?" Freya asked with Ottar behind her.
Loki looked towards them and also saw Hephaestus and Tsubaki behind them, "I know what this girl in heat wants but what about you?"
"I just want to know the situation.", answered Hephaestus.
Loki stared at her for a moment before giving a reply, "The situation is as you see it. The lid of the Dungeon is broken because of that irregular who loves the Spirits the most. Nothing really complicated nor surprising after the failed subjugation of the Black Dragon."
Hephaestus immediately gave her a glare and said, "Don't talk to me as if I'm some fool. Those guys back there argued that they have to do everything to solve this problem. That's not wrong, but they don't seem to be much concerned about what's going to happen next. Now then, let me ask you two who seem to have some idea, what's going to happen next?"
Loki and Freya looked at each other before chuckling, "Nope~! We actually don't know.", answered Loki, "But I could at least tell you that Kisuke thinks that this problem is trivial and he didn't want to get involved with it and would rather work on more pressing matters."
"Trivial, you say..." Hephaestus frowned, "But this could decide whether the children of the Lower World could still exist or not."
Loki shook her shoulders, "Every answer I could give you from here on are just my assumptions and I would rather not reveal those without any assurance."
"Then bring me with you too so that I can make my own assumptions."
Loki immediately jumped into Riveria's arms and said, "Follow us. Let's move before those clowns can think of following."
Freya was also silently carried by Ottar and Hephaestus hopped onto Tsubaki's back.
"Please try to keep up." Riveria briefly uttered before running towards the edge of the town.
Tsubaki and Ottar were shocked to hear that from her and that's understandable. The fact that she never updated her Falna after being relieved of all the blessings she had had already reached them, including the 'fact' that she could only match a Level 6 or 7.
The two of them followed her while Tsubaki replied, "Don't worry about us. We'll stay behind you." As both of them are Level 9, the top of the caste, they were confident that they wouldn't be left behind.
But as soon as they left Melen's premises, Riveria muttered, "That's good to hear. Well then..."
Instantly as she finished her words, a Magic Circle appeared and disappeared in just a fraction of a second under Riveria's feet before she disappeared from their sights.
Everyone's eyes widened and when they saw her and Loki again, they almost became a small dot on the horizon.
"...W-what the hell?" Tsubaki muttered to herself as she tried to funnel most of her Ki into her legs to speed up in an attempt to catch them.
Ottar also did the same without saying anything but he was only a bit faster than Tsubaki and could still see Riveria's silhouette getting smaller, 'We had false information...'

The first to arrive was obviously Riveria and Loki, "Good timing. Serafall was just about to finish making dinner." Yoruichi greeted them.
Riveria just ignored the weird house that suddenly popped out in the middle of nowhere and went straight inside while saying, "I'll go help out."
However, her companion couldn't, "...Is this one of your hidden bases?"
"Nope~ Just built it earlier."
Loki immediately felt tired and not just because of this but also because of Riveria. The fact that even the top players of Orario couldn't catch up to her is just screaming to the world that she's lying about being able to hold back a Level 8, 'I already knew that she was lying... But not to this extent. Just what did she gain on that side?'
After less than a minute, Tsubaki and Ottar finally arrived while carrying their patron Deities with the former wheezing for air, "...W-where... Where is she?" she asked while slowly placing down Hephaestus.
"She's inside, helping out with the preparation for the dinner.", Yoruichi answered nonchalantly, "Come in. We'll have a better time with a satisfied stomach."
Ottar, on the other hand, could only stare at where they came from and recall the scene earlier, 'It wasn't just her speed... All the monsters she encountered were also instantly obliterated without her even looking at them.' For the first time in a while, Riveria's coldness implanted a bit of fear in his heart which not even Bell managed to do.
"You'll understand later." Freya voiced out to him as she slowly walked towards everyone.
