Bab 367: The First Customer
Silence... Different from the anticipatory silence from earlier, the pub is now covered in awkward silence. Even those who are downed due to alcohol except for Bete all instantly woke up with mouths wide open.
Everyone's stare is congregated on the High-Elf which is the source of that seductive moan and now covering her mouth with a red face not knowing what to do.
During this time, they suddenly heard clicking sounds from the person who started all of this and gathered everyone's attention. On his hand is a black box with strange protrusion and buttons.
The man himself has a large grin on his face and said, "Yay~. I got something good~."
After saying so, Kisuke took back his camera and decided to leave. Signaling the girls, they all stood up and started walking towards the exit while ignoring everyone's stares. Yoruichi grabbed the unconscious Hestia via princess carry and followed everyone.
Seeing that Kisuke was about to leave, Riveria muttered while shaking, "W-what d-did you... do?" Her question pertains to several things including the function of the black box, his method of reducing her to this state, and his goal.
Before exiting the pub, Kisuke turned around and smiled, "Did you think that you could get away with those questions for free? Then let me tell you this, there's nothing more expensive than free. That man told you, right? Be wary of my prices and this is the price for those information and trying to trick me in answering your questions." He then followed his girls outside to go home.
The silence continued for a few minutes and Riveria was able to calm herself down sufficiently and stood up, intending to leave, "I'm going first." She hurriedly exited the pub to escape with a still blushing face.
"R-Riveria-sama!" "Riveria!" Ais, Lefiya, Tiona, and Tione and some other girls immediately chased after her.
Finn couldn't stop himself from asking anymore, "What was that?"
"W-who knows..." Loki replied, "But that's the first time I've seen Riveria make that kind of expression. I don't know if I should be happy or pissed that someone else pulled out that expression from her." After hearing Riveria's first-ever moan, she instantly sobered up.
"To reduce the prideful Elf just like that... He's a terrifying kid..." Gareth commented.
"I told you, right? That kid is dangerous." Loki added and Finn and Gareth indeed recall those words from her.
That night, Riveria didn't come out of her room no matter how much the others call for her.
The next day noon, Riveria finally came out but she pretended that nothing out of ordinary happened yesterday and when she caught someone talking about the events of the last night, she'll use her authority to send them to annoying errands or ask them to train by running around the whole Twilight Manor fifty times. Just an overnight, she became a tyrant.
However, not everyone is afraid to poke fun of her as Loki kept pestering her despite her bad mood.
While laying on the floor after being smacked on the head, Loki asked as she noticed that Riveria is getting ready to leave, "Where are you going?"
"To that man, Kisuke Urahara's place," Riveria answered simply.
Loki looked at her with a dumbfounded expression before descending into laughter, "Ahahaha! Great! I assure you that you'll finally break that guy's expectation! But be sure not to kill him~."
"No way I'm going to do that. I'm going there for a proper business."
Loki could only smile while watching her leave.

Early in the morning, everyone woke up pretty early, including Hestia, which shocked everyone, "What? Is it so surprising that I woke up early!?"
"Yes." Everyone simultaneously answered.
"Ugh..." She can't really say anything back as she's living a pretty carefree life, "I'm going out to invite the blacksmith that I know. It might take some time, but it shouldn't last for three days."
"That long? Where are you going?" Kisuke asked.
"She's a very person so it might take some time to convince her."
"I see... Please be careful."
After breakfast and dressing up, Hestia went away with jolly steps.
"What about you girls?"
"We're all going to the Dungeon. I'll be leading them to the 16th and 17th floor where they could bash the heads of the Minotaurs to removed their lingering fear of them." Yoruichi answered.
"Then I'll be manning the shop today while I arrange some of the data I got from the Dungeon." Kisuke then gave her kiss to the forehead.
Smiling brightly, Yoruichi replied, "We'll be back early in the afternoon~." Before walking away.
However, instead of following her, the girls lined up in front of Kisuke, "I can understand Sona and Medusa... Even Aika and Koneko... Why even you, Kuroka?"
"I don't want to be left out, nya~! And besides, you should just accept me! You know I'm not going to let anybody touch me anymore, so you gotta take the responsibility, nya~!"
"Don't want to be left out? But you're in front of the line..."
"It's called preemptive strike, nya~. They're too slow."
'Well, it's not like I'm not expecting this to happen... I guess I'm blessed enough in this life to have everyone's affection.' Kisuke sighed and gave her a kiss on her forehead.
"Thanks, nya~!" Kuroka wanted to ask something of another level like a kiss on her lips but stopped herself since there's still a long line behind her. But before separating from Kisuke, Kuroka gave him a wink and said, "I'd like to schedule a session later~." She then hurriedly followed Yoruichi.
Kisuke has a feeling that they will be going all the way later and could only smile wryly, 'My first world problems...'
Kisuke then proceeded to give everyone a forehead kiss and watch them leave before leaving for his Candy Shop that he'll be manning for today.
The whole morning went without any disturbance which is good for Kisuke's research and bad for his business. But it wasn't until noon that an unexpected guest or customer arrived, "Oh my... I wasn't expecting this after what happened the last night... Good afternoon to you, Riveria-san."
Riveria blushed for a bit after hearing him mentioning the last, "Good afternoon to you too, Kisuke Urahara-san. But it's really hard to believe that you're not expecting me... After playing with me last night."
"Please just call me Kisuke. And believe me that I'm not really expecting you to come today. I predicted that you'll only come a week or two later. After all, what I did isn't very flattering."
Riveria's blush grew deeper and said, "Please stop mentioning the last night. It was also my fault for trying to trick information from you and I sincerely apologize. So please forget what happened last night."
'That's impossibel~. But since you apologized, I won't be mentioning it for about an hour~.' Kisuke thought but he didn't say it out loud, "What's the purpose of your today's visit, I wonder? I doubt it's for the candies on my shelves that attracted you."
Riveria is unsatisfied that she didn't get a reply of promise from Kisuke but set it aside for now and answered his question, "I'm here for a formal business... Regarding your magic..."
"I see..." Kisuke then stood up, "I'm about to have lunch. Please join me." He then invited her to the inner portion of the shop for lunch and private talks.
Riveria finally remembered that she hasn't had lunch or breakfast yet as she's too busy 'silencing' people in the Loki Familia and reluctantly agreed to Kisuke's offer, "...Thank you."
