Kapitel 180: Chapter 180 – Surgery
When I woke up the next day, I was greeted by Kejoro, who sat outside of my room in Seiza.
"Good morning, Riku-sama."
"Kejoro…? How long have I been asleep?" I asked her as I raised my body.
I was so exhausted yesterday that I hit my bed without even finishing the last thing I should do, dealing with Walburga and absorbing the Incinerate Anthem.
I rose from my bed and noticed that my clothes were in disarray. Taking a second to fix it, I then crossed my arms and looked at Kejoro.
"So, do you need something from me?" I asked her with a faint smile.
"Yes. Actually, there is something that the others want to request to Riku-sama." Answered Kejoro.
"What is it?"
The youkai had almost never asked anything from me. They were content with what they got, and they certainly would have never asked for something useless.
Usually, some of them asked for a fight, while the others asked for Sake or something.
But I think I knew what they wanted this time.
"Yes. It seems that most of them were having a bet when Tsuchigumo had a fight with Vali Lucifer and Crom Cruach. And now, after getting a lot of Sake from youkai under Hagoromo Gitsune's Hyakki Yakkou, they all want to hold a big party. It also serves as a party for destroying our enemy."
As I had expected. They all wanted some party, huh?
I grinned at Kejoro. "Give them what they want. Also, do you know where Shirone is?"
"Shirone? I believe she's with Magari and Kuroka-dono right now."
"I see, thanks."
After getting confirmation from Kejoro, I spread my Senjutsu to find Shirone. Finding her was easy; I found her near the entrance, with Yaemasa and the other youkai.
I walked out of my room, and Kejoro bowed her head to the floor.
Right now, what I needed to do was clear. I should take the Incinerate Anthem from Walburga's body. Killing her was the fastest way, but then I could keep her alive to find the information about the hideout that the magicians used to hide.
I now stood in front of my mansion. Shirone was sitting on the terrace while looking at Yaemasa and the other small youkai.
"Yo, what are you doing?" I asked her from behind.
Startled, Shirone's ears perked up as she turned around.
"Riku-senpai…" she muttered. "You surprised me."
"My bad. It seems you still need a lot of training."
Shirone narrowed her eyes at me. "No one will be able to sense you even if they spread their Senjutsu, Riku-senpai."
"Are you sure? I didn't even use my Fear, you know?" I jokingly said, causing Shirone furrowed her eyebrows even further.
"Liar."
"No, I am not. You really need some extra training."
"I see…" Muttered Shirone. Her expression became normal again; it was her usual stoic expression with a faint smile. "So what do you want from me, Riku-senpai? Aside from the time when you attended Kuoh Academy, you rarely find me unless you want something. And that fact was applied to anyone that even Kuroka nee-sama had some trouble finding you."
"Yeah. Actually, where did you put Walburga? You know, that magician? I couldn't even find her with my Senjutsu."
"Oh, her?" Shirone rose up and turned around. "Let me take you to her. She's inside Magari's Barrier."
Shirone then began to walk toward Magari's residence right beside our mansion. It was still part of my mansion, but she had a special house separated from the main building.
Magari had a separated house because of her position. She was the one who put the barrier around this mansion area, so that was why she didn't go out of the mansion unless it was really necessary.
There were a lot of Magical Formations surrounding Magari's house.
When I arrived right in front of it, I was a bit amazed by the scale and the complexity of the barrier. Combined with my old man's Fear, no one would be able to find this mansion.
Unless an extraordinary thing happened like what Azazel did, he was freaking detecting the energy of a person who teleported with me to find my mansion.
Not only that, there was another barrier that blocked Senjutsu in the back area of her house.
'So that's where Walburga is?'
I had been here a few years ago when I was still in training with Kuroka. However, as soon as I was sent to Kuoh, I never stepped into this place again.
"Oh, you are here." A voice came from beyond the door, and then the door was opened, revealing Magari walking with her four legs.
"Magari." I called out to her, and her mouth curved into a smile.
"The magician is in the back. Do you need my assistance again?" She asked with a knowing tone.
That was what I intended from the start. I was about to ask for her assistance because I would be vulnerable when I absorbed the Incinerate Anthem.
I would need to use all my strength, and it was the time to push Telos Karma to the limit. I hope to achieve Balance Breaker by absorbing Incinerate Anthem.
So I nodded my head to Magari.
"Yeah, I am counting on you."
"Well then, come inside. Shirone, you are helping too."
Shirone nodded her head, "Un. I will heal Riku-Senpai if he's injured."
"Good." Satisfied, Magari nodded and turned around.
I followed her inside the house, and she took us to a room that looked like a warehouse.
A woman in magician's clothes was squirming around the ground with her hands tied behind her body with a magic-imbued rope and her mouth blocked by a tape. She was Walburga.
"Hmmmnn!! Hmnn!!!" She tried to say something, but no sound came out as her mouth was blocked.
"Well then," I muttered and took out Nenekirimaru.
Seeing the sword in my hand, Walbura's eyes widened, and she tried her best to crawl away from me.
"Let's take the Sacred Gear out of her body." I said with a grin befitting the lord of pandemonium.
