It was Sona's turn to be confused, "What do mean? You probably don't know, but I'm a high-class Devil, even though I don't specialize in mind control, someone on the same rank as me with that kind of skill can easily manipulate everyone here. It's not that I'm underestimating you, but although I'm surprised at your ability to distinguish auras at an unbelievable level, you're still a human and I can't feel any indicative feeling that you're very strong. It's also the same as that little girl. I don't know how she suddenly teleported here, but there are some humans with similar inborn abilities."
"If I were you, I wouldn't put my trust so much on my sensing abilities right now. Your instincts are screaming at you, right?" Kisuke answered her with a serious tone.
Sona stops and thinks again. Kisuke is right, even though she can't feel any pressure from the little girl, something inside her is telling her to be wary of the girl. Sona always trusted her judgment, but seeing Kisuke being serious for once, and also remembering his ability to sense aura, she heeded Kisuke's advice and focused on her instincts as a Devil right now. She didn't know why, but she had a feeling that she should trust Kisuke in this one, "Who is she anyway? A friend of yours?"
"Who knows? This is the first time I've seen her. I don't even know her name." Kisuke shrugged his shoulders and faced the little girl once again. Sona furrowed her brows again at his answer, 'He didn't know her, yet he taking her very cautiously earlier. Just what did he feel from her?'
The little girl already took back her sights from Aika and set it on him again. "You can call me Kisuke, what is your name, little miss?" Kisuke said to her while taking out another plate of cookies.
She tilted her and said, "...Ophis." She then grabbed the cookies to nibble. She hadn't had enough of it.
"Ophis-chan, huh. What a cute name.~ Do you want to try this pudding?" Kisuke took out a cold pudding and opened its lid. Ophis eyes' flashed, she now trusts Kisuke for giving her good food. Seeing that there is a new one, she couldn't help but look forward to it.
"Just where are you pulling out all of this stuff? And why do you have them?" Aika stood up, still nursing her forehead and asked while pouting.
"It's a separate space in stasis that I created using magic and it's very convenient. As for the sweets, they are for Koneko and Yoruichi's appeasement whenever I teased them too much." Kisuke replied while scooping the pudding with a teaspoon and feeding it to the excited little girl.
While this is all happening, Sakura and Sona is both thinking of the same thing, 'Ophis... Ophis... Where have I heard it before?' Then something flashed in their minds, '!? I couldn't be... right?' At this time, they coincidentally saw each other's eyes and noticed the latter's expression.
"Miss Urahara, could you be thinking of the same thing as me?" Sona first voiced out her concerns
"If you're asking me that, then it looks like it, after all not just anyone can have 'Ophis' as her name," Sakura replied with a gulp.
As for why Kisuke and Yoruichi didn't react to her name, it is because even though they have read the information about the 'Ouroboros Dragon' from Cleria's library, it's an obscure one and the name of the dragon was never mentioned.
"Then let's confirm it." Sona approached Kisuke and Sakura nodded at her.
Sona wanted to ask the little girl directly but when she saw her busy chewing and enjoying her pudding with great relish, Sona instead faced Kisuke and ask for a favor, "Can you ask what her race is?"
"Hmm? Ah, sure." Kisuke scooped another serving of pudding and Ophis opened her mouth, but Kisuke stopped his hand in midair and asked, "What is your race, Ophis-chan?"
When Sakura and Sona saw this, they shuddered and shouted simultaneously, "What the heck are you doing!?"
"Eh? Just asking?" Kisuke tilted his head at their reaction.
Ophis saw his hand stopped when he asked a question, she figured out that she has to answer to eat the pudding so she didn't hesitate and immediately said, "Dragon."
Kisuke ignored them and focused his attention back to the little girl who is anticipating the pudding in his hand, "A dragon? That's cool, here is your pudding.~" He then resumed feeding her.
"Why does it feel like you're training her like you would to a pet...?" Sona couldn't stop herself from retorting, but then she immediately remembered what she just said. Her thoughts halted and she faced Sakura, "Miss Urahara, do you know any other dragon named Ophis?"
"I only know one such dragon. How about you Miss Sitri?" Sakura can't take off her eyes from the little girl who is being played by her son.
"What a coincidence, I only know such one dragon too," Sona replied, also staring at Kisuke's antics.
Aika also approached the group and asked, "Dragon? Those giant liz- I mean those legendary beings? Those also exist?"
"There is a Devil in front of you, so a dragon isn't that surprising." Yoruichi also finished her milk and joined the conversation.
Aika thought for a bit and also approached Ophis, picked up a cookie and also started feeding her. Now that two people are feeding her, she also started chewing faster and happier.
'This is a dragon? I kinda want one.' Aika cleaned her cheeks with her handkerchief while thinking such a thing.
Sakura and Sona, who is watching from the side, have their backs drenched in cold sweat while watching them, but they didn't say anything as they don't know how would Ophis react, 'Is that really the Ouroboros Dragon? Maybe we're wrong?'
Yoruichi noticed their nervous expression and asked, "Is there something wrong?"
"Uhm, Yoruichi-chan. Doesn't the name Ophis ring a bell to you?" Sakura asked Yoruichi hesitantly.
"Hmm? No, how about you, Kisuke?" Yoruichi shook her head and asked her partner.
"Me? First time I've heard of it." It was unknown when Kisuke took out a bunch of different desserts for Ophis, and He and Aika are now competing who the little girl will choose to eat from by employing various methods to attract her attention. And surprisingly, Aika is taking the lead. "Kuh... So this is the rumored girl power. I'm no match for that."
Aika finally regained her smug face and directed it to Kisuke in full glory, 'I finally won against this bastard.'
Meanwhile, Koneko, who is forgotten, is sneaking some cookies for herself, but Ophis noticed her, so Koneko has no choice to feed it back to the little girl 'cause she got scared at the pressure she is emitting.
"Ophis-chan, sharing your happiness with others can also make you happy," Kisuke said some nonsensical thing, but Ophis took it seriously as naive as she is.
She looked again at Koneko and thought for a bit, Ophis then picked up a cookie and imitated what Kisuke was doing, putting the cookie in front of Koneko's mouth. Koneko didn't think much of it and just took a bite. She smiled as she finally got her snack.
Ophis has a strange feeling, but it isn't a bad one, so she continued feeding Koneko trying to figure out what she is feeling. Now we have a strange situation where, two perverts are competing to feed the gothic lolita girl, while the lolita is feeding a catgirl.
Sakura and Sona, who is relatively normal and aware of who the little girl is, are speechless.
Sona couldn't hold back anymore and asked Kisuke, "Urahara-kun, do you know something about the Ouroborus Dragon?"
I'm sorry for those who are disappointed at Sona's reaction, but she has enough composure withstand the truth like how Rias reacted when she first met Ophis.
Though she's more afraid of how the MC acts.
Ophis: *nom* *nom* *nom*

"Ouroboros Dragon? Isn't that the strongest existence along with Great Red or something." Kisuke absentmindedly replied, but after thinking about it for a few seconds more, he finally gets what they are trying to tell him, "Oh... Ophis-chan, are you also called the Ouroboros Dragon?" He stops his hand in midair again after asking the question, and Ophis already knew the drill, "Yes." And she displayed a magic circle in a form of two snakes eating each other forming an infinity symbol
"WHAT!?" Both Sakura and Sona shouted at them unintentionally which disrupt the 'cookie cycle'. Both of them already suspected that it's really the Ouroboros Dragon, but until they can get a piece of concrete evidence or the little girl claim that it's really the Ouroboros Dragon, they don't want to believe at their assumptions until the end. But now, after being shown by that unique magic circle which matches the records of their respective clans and is only available for the Ouroboros Dragons or those it blessed, they don't have any choice but to acknowledge the fact.
Aika who is enjoying her newfound power over Kisuke was dissatisfied when the two interrupted them, but she isn't rude enough to rebuke her crush's mother and the student council president of her school especially now that she knows that Sona is a devil. Although she wants to continue feeding Ophis, she is curious why the devil seems so scared of the little girl being the Ouroboros Dragon, "Uhm, why are so surprised? What is an Ouroboros Dragon?" She asked.
It was Kisuke who answered her question, in the simplest term he can, "The Ouroboros Dragon is the strongest existence, in other words, she can reduce the whole town into rubbles with just a snap of her fingers. Hmm, maybe even rubbles won't be left behind."
Aika was frozen and dropped the cookie she has on her hand. Her body moved like a machine that wasn't oiled for years as she slowly pointed to the little girl still waiting for her cookie with an incredulous expression, "H-h-h-her? S-s-she can do that?"
"Ahahaha~ No doubt. You see how serious I am earlier when I was inviting her over, right?" Kisuke laughed and patted her shoulder.
"You crazy bastard! And you're treating her like a little girl! Wait, how old is she anyway? With the existence of magic, anti-aging magic should exist right?" Aika grabbed his clothes and started shaking it, again."
"Anti-aging magic does exist, but she isn't using one." Kisuke just let Aika do what she wants, it's pretty amusing to see her all flustered after all.
"Then-" Aika wanted to say that the little girl has the same appearance as her age if she isn't using any anti-aging magic but Kisuke interrupted her.
"Concept of time doesn't exist for her, so if we want to quantify her age, it probably a few millenniums or even far back to the inception of the world. And a reminder for you, you've been treating her like a kid with me." Kisuke grinned at her as she knew what she is thinking about.
Aika stopped grabbing Kisuke clothes and slowly moved the center table to the side. She then proceeded to kneel down in front of Ophis doing a dogeza, "I'M SO SORRY!!!" Aika treated a supreme being that can destroy towns like a kid. That thought led to her current actions.
"In a way, that's also the right response. Kiryuu-san is really amazing. If she had some ability or a Sacred Gear, I would have immediately invited her for my peerage." Sona commented at this sight while her mouth is twitching. She already recovered from her shock and started to gather information, 'If that really is the Ouroboros Dragon, what is it doing here? And how can Kisuke invite her just like that? I also remembered that ever since coming in here, she only looked at two people and one animal, Urahara-kun, Kiryuu-san, and the cat, Yoruichi. She didn't even take a glance at the rest of us with the exception of Toujou-san when she was 'lectured' by Urahara-kun and started feeding her.'
Ophis tilted her head at Aika's action and remembered something, she said, "Don't mind." She can't remember where she learned of that phrase but she knew it was used for those who are asking for forgiveness and Aika has been feeding her great food with her 'combination tactics' which caused her to like her a bit.
Aika looked up and she thought she saw an Angel. She remembered all her interactions with her, albeit not that many, and thought 'She really is just a kid... and an Angel. I'm healed!' She stood up and hugged the unsuspecting Ophis while rubbing her cheeks against her, "Thank you very much, huehuehue." She started to sound like an old man.
"This damn pervert! I also wanna do that!" Kisuke protested at the side.
"Stop it you, idiots!" Sakura and Sona are in sync today.
"There's no harm done." Aika and Kisuke simultaneously said. The perverts are in great sync today too.
Sona couldn't believe what she is seeing, 'Are these idiots looking to die? Well, maybe because they are idiots? But it looks like the Ouroboros Dragon doesn't mind it, so we should be safe?'
As for Sakura, she couldn't contain her curiosity anymore, "Uhm, what is the Ouroboros Dragon doing here anyway? Did you lure her here, Kisuke?"
"I actually don't know why she's here." Kisuke rubbed his chin and asked Ophis again, "So what are you doing here, Ophis-chan?"
While Aika is still groping her all over, she answered, "I'm, ever 'changing'. I, can be anything. But you, force 'change' into others. We're, similar, but different."
Kisuke furrowed his brows at Ophis' words, 'Is she talking about Benihime's 'Restructure'? Did she saw through me even without revealing Benihime? Should I say, as expected of the Infinite Dragon.'
"What is she talking about, Kisuke?" Sakura, as well as the rest, confused, except for his trusty cat partner.
"I'm not really sure. Maybe she's talking about my Sacred Gear?" Kisuke feigned ignorance.
"You have a Scared Gear? And why would she be interested in it?" Sakura was only mildly shocked at the revelation due to all surprising things that happened today.
"I don't really know anything about my Sacred Gear, maybe she knows more than me." Kisuke directed his sentence to Ophis who is still restricted by Aika. She only tilted her head in response. Obviously, because Ophis doesn't know anything about Kisuke's Sacred Gear as he doesn't own one, hence, her confusion. But the rest took it as her not wanting to answer.
"Then, what about Kiryuu-san?" Sona also posed a question that was bugging her. She wanted to ask more about Kisuke's Sacred Gear but Aika, who captured Ophis attention even for a moment is more interesting as she knew that she's just a normal human.
"Me?" Aika separated from Ophis as she wanted to continue feeding her asked.
"It's probably also about her Sacred Gear." Kisuke is the one who answered Sona's question and Ophis nodded in agreement.
"What!? She has one?" Sona was flabbergasted. 'She has a Scared Gear? And it even captured Ophis' attention? Do both of them have Longinus? No, I'm sure Kisuke doesn't have one as I already saw it in the past. But Kiryuu-san?'
Kisuke smiled at Sona's reaction and said, "I don't think it is a Longinus, but if you want to invite her over your side, you can't force her." He saw through her thoughts, making Sona smile wryly, "I won't. That's just bad taste."
"Scared Gear? Longinus? What are you talking about." Aika stopped her hand and asked, as this is about herself and she doesn't know the terms they are using.
Sona is still deep in her thought so Kisuke answered her instead, "Scared Gear is a tool born with the humans to give them power. Just think of it that way."
"What can these tools do?"
"All sorts of things. It can even develop into something unexpected."
"And I have something like that? Why don't I know about it?" Aika asked again now even more confused.
"It can be awakened in many ways, but most of the time, it is awakened due to some life-changing events of the host or with some outside help." Kisuke resumed feeding Ophis when he noticed that she is still anticipating for her cookie.
"Then can you help me awaken it?" Aika is feeling a little bit excited as her inner chuuni is shouting inside her heart. 'I hope it's something related to fortune-telling.'
"Kiryuu-san, it's not something easy to d- "I can." You can!?" Kisuke interrupted Sona in the middle of speaking, but his affirmation shocked her more than anger her as there are very few ways to activate a Scared Gear through outside means. Most of it requires some complicated ritual to actually do. She didn't think Kisuke would have the ability to do it.
