Sirzechs is a very busy man so he didn't insist on asking about the evidence and disconnected the call.
Everyone is silent until Kisuke muttered to himself, "I really look forward to the bet~. I hope Koneko-chan likes my present."
Rias and Akeno reacted to his words, "You're cheating!"
"I'm not. You agreed to my terms, confidently at that. It's not my fault that you can't win." Kisuke smugly replied.
"N-no... But..!" Rias couldn't think of anything to refute his claims.
"G-Give it up, Rias." Sona on the side is stopping herself from laughing but she's failing at it miserably.
"Sona!?"
"If there is one thing that I learned from interacting with him, that is betting with him is just giving him benefits without return." Sona composes herself and explained to her the futility of her actions.
"Why didn't you warn me then?" Feeling bitter, Rias blamed Sona.
"Don't take it out on me. I'm also the victim here. But I must say, seeing others suffer from his tricks makes me feel quite good." Sona heaved a sigh of satisfaction.
Rias pointed at Sona and face Kisuke with her mouth twitching, "Urahara... What did you do to her?"
"Do what?"
"She's acting strange! This isn't the Sona that we knew!" Rias exclaimed and off to the side, Akeno is nodding with great vigor.
"She always acts like that around me though. At first, she likes acting tough, but as time goes, she became more honest to herself." Kisuke recalled Sona's attitude when he first met her.
"No no no. She didn't become honest! Although you're correct to say that she likes acting tough, that is her true and default personality. But now, she can act like a delinquent and she's even started to like seeing others suffer!... You've infected her..."
"How rude! Don't call me like I'm some sort of disease!"
Rias ignored Kisuke and grabbed Sona's shoulders, "Sona! Wake up! That guy is messing with your head!"
"That's wrong, Rias. I'm fine. In fact, I never felt so free before. Fufufu~." Sona is feeling funny after seeing Rias' expression, 'This sort of thing isn't so bad.'
"Y-you...!" Rias was speechless and glared at Kisuke.
"Yoruichi, I make sure I clean myself properly every time I exit my lab, but are there still some of the drugs still on me? Now that I look closely, Kaichou is indeed acting funny." Kisuke crouched down and asks the cat beside him.
"Don't worry, no drugs are on you. And don't act like you're blameless here. It's clearly on you."
Kisuke didn't refute her words because he has some inkling that it really is his fault and he just didn't want to admit it.
"Alright, let's stop this. The day will end without us accomplishing anything if we keep doing this. Let's go to Koneko-chan. She's getting restless." With that said, Kisuke disconnected the magic circle that transfers sound he secretly activated before Sirzechs even started talking.
In the medical ward, Koneko is crying her eyes out and kept muttering her sister's name, 'Nee-sama... Kuroka-neesama..."
Aika is comforting Koneko and looked where Kisuke's communication magic formerly is and sighed, 'To think Koneko-chan has such a tragic story... Compared to me... Just a normal person on top of being annoying...'
While they were all bickering, Kuroka, who's having a hot time alone, heard everything that Sirzechs said and end up crying a little remembering her childhood. But after all of this, from her understanding, Shirone should already know what really happens back then. Kuroka stopped struggling and kept on thinking what this entails, 'Will Shirone forgive me? How did she react when she first time heard it? What if she never forgives for what I had done? What if she doesn't care about me anymore? What if...'
Kuroka ends up getting emotional from anticipation and fear. She completely disregards what is happening outside until she felt someone carrying the box she is in, 'Am I going to see Shirone now? What if she still hates me?...'
Kuroka felt a pulse of magic and the air in the surrounding suddenly change. It's the same feeling she has when she uses teleportation magic.
A few minutes of traveling, Kuroka heard a knock on the door followed by the voice of the hateful human who tied her up 'nicely', "Koneko-chan! Underrated gift or your lovely visitors?"
From the other side of the door, Kuroka heard Shirone's voice, "Gift!" Kuroka has been watching Shirone throughout the years secretly and this is the nearest instance that she heard her voice, 'She knew!?'
Aika opened the door and let Kisuke entered the room, leaving behind the four Devils, Sakura, and Yoruichi. There's an obvious disappointment to Rias' and Akeno's face when Koneko unhesitantly chooses the 'Underrated' gift over her 'Lovely' visitors.
Kisuke saw Koneko's puffy but excited eyes, "Yo~. Koneko-chan! How have you been?" Kisuke gently put down the big white box tied in red ribbon.
"Good. But I'll feel a lot better after hearing everything." Koneko didn't even look at Kisuke as her gaze was already attracted to the box which she guesses that her older sister is in.
"It seems that you can't wait anymore. Well then, We'll leave you alone for now. Goodluck~" With that, Kisuke left the 'hungry' cat alone with its 'food'.
After Kisuke exited the room, Koneko slowly approached the box with excitement and fear taking over her heart and say a note on top of it, 'Pull this ribbon to receive your gift.'
With both of her hands shaking, she reached out for the ribbon but wasn't able to pull it immediately, 'What should I say? What if Nee-sama hates me? Because if not for me, she didn't have to suffer so much... What should I do? Why is Nee-sama aren't making some noise? Did Kisuke senpai did something to her?'
One question after another kept popping up in her head and she slowly pulled back her hands from the ribbons. But just as she did, she noticed a note written on it, 'Don't think too much. If she starts getting angry at you, I'll help you spank her~.'
Getting back her smile, she pulled the ribbon with all her might and the lid of the box flew up with the sides of the box falling outward. Kuroka, who is tied up lewdly with a flushed face appeared in front of her.
The effects of Kisuke's binding spell already disappeared so Kuroka inevitably ended up moving quite a bit to find a comfortable position, but she regretted it now because the knot is really well placed that it kept attacking her sensitive place. Even though she knew that she has to appear serious in their long-awaited reunion, she couldn't help but get turned on a little bit.
When the boxed opened, Kuroka saw Shirone's face directly for the first time in years, but her heart fell when she noticed that Shirone is giving her a cold look. Kuroka avoided her gaze and her tears are already welling up, 'So she hates me after all...'
Kuroka closed her eyes because she felt that Shirone approached her. She thought that Shirone would slap her due to her actions in the past. But contrary to her expectations, Shirone tugged the rope which is binding her and tried to break it using brute force. Although it only ended up digging on Kuroka's various places, "Ahn~."
Both Kuroka and Koneko opened their eyes wide at the sensual voice that Kuroka released.
With a sigh, Koneko went to the corner of the room where an unassuming box is placed. Opening it, she grabbed a giant harisen(white paper fan) that Yoruichi gifted her in the past.
With throbbing forehead, she exited the room. Kuroka heard the hateful human's voice after a few seconds, "Yo, Koneko-chan! You got out earlier than expected. Did something happen? And why are you carrying a giant harisen? And please stop glaring at me... I'm starting to get scared."
A loud slap was heard and it was followed by Kisuke's voice again, "Ow... ow? Ow! ow! ow! What the hell!? Why does it hurt so much!? Hey! Where did you get that harisen!?
"Yoruichi-san..." Koneko answered simply followed by another loud slap.
"Ow ow ow!!! Yoruichi!? What the hell is that thing!?"
"Hehehe... I'm learning from you every day and I created a device that hits you harmlessly but it multiplies the pain. Only masochists can tolerate the kind of pain it produces."
"You created the ultimate S&M device!?"
Here's another one~.
Enjoy~.

Kisuke is currently untying Kuroka who is glaring at him menacingly, but there is also some curiosity within her eyes.
Kisuke finished untying her and face Koneko, "Koneko-sama, I've done your order. Please let me off. If you want to hit someone with that, please go to Himejima-san. It seems like she'll welcome it."
"What!? How did you-- I mean, what are you talking about!? Are you saying that I'm a big masochist!?" Watching from the door with everyone else, Akeno protested. Everyone ignored her claim though.
"Akeno-senpai, I can lend it to you for a few days." Koneko looked at her with a complicated expression. She didn't really want to lend it as it's her weapon against the biggest pervert of the Urahara Shop, but since it's her Akeno-senpai who took good care of her, she's willing to loan it for a few days.
"Koneko-chan!?"
"Wait! She can't enjoy it if there is only an M, I nominate myself as the S!" Kisuke said seriously. But it earned him another hit from the harisen.
"...Koneko-chan... If you want to volunteer yourself, then I wouldn't insist any further. I'm just giving Himejima-san a choice here." Kisuke rubbed his butt to nurse it.
"I'm not choosing either of you! And I won't be borrowing it!" Akeno couldn't take it anymore. Even though her shame tolerance is quite high, against Kisuke, however, she might as well just a little girl. Although deep inside, she thinks that the offer is quite attractive. And if she were to be perfectly honest, she also wanted to take Kisuke's offer if he can tie her up like what he did to Kuroka. It just couldn't escape her mind after witnessing Kuroka's hidden ecstatic expression.
Rias and the rest, except for Sakura and Aika, looked at her with a dubious expression, but Akeno ignored them as overly defending herself would only look bad for her.
"Alright then, let's go out and leave them alone," Kisuke said as he walks out of the room and everyone followed him.
Making sure that they went away for sure, Koneko faced Kuroka for the second time who's also looking at her eyes without making a word. Because of Kisuke's perverted antics, all of Koneko forgot her fears and only relief and happiness have remained, 'Did he know that this would happen? I'm very thankful, but even I can tell that I'm being spoiled...'
Setting aside this issue for later, Koneko, without warning, jumped towards her sister and hugged her, burying her head on her bosom, "Kuroka-neesama! I missed you..."
Kuroka could have dodge Koneko's tackle but why would she do that? Her problem is she didn't know how to react when Koneko suddenly hugged her and became awkward. But when she heard her call her name and told her that she missed her, tears flowed down through her cheeks and returned the hug, "I missed you too, Shirone."
Fear and uncertainty disappeared entirely from Kuroka and was replaced by relief and happiness. She felt that as if a large boulder on her heart was lifted after a few years of silently enduring it.
The two nekoshou cried in each other's arm for a half an hour as they try to brand the aura and smell of the latter to their memories. They lay down on the ground and stopped crying and slept just like that. Even if they're on the cold hard floor, with each other's warmth, it's the best sleep they ever had for ages. They returned to their childhood time they were craving for, albeit, a bit late.

After leaving them alone, Kisuke decided that they should return to the surface. But Sakura and Aika proposed to remain to take care of the two cats. With a bit of deliberation, Sakura, Aika, and Yoruichi remained and Kisuke and the four Devils will return to the surface.
Rias and Akeno said their farewells after they reached the surface. Kisuke didn't stop them and asked, "What about your gift? Are you giving up? Even if that's the case, you still have to honor your part of the deal."
Akeno shivered slightly at his words since it's technically her that would suffer, but somehow, there's also a strange feeling welling up from inside her, though she can't tell what it is.
"Our gift is just a bunch of her most favorite snacks, but it's pretty obvious that she wouldn't like our gift more than her long lost sister. Of course, we'll honor our part of the deal. I'll arrange some things for the protection of your mother and you can talk to Akeno about the other part..." Rias sighed and conceded.
"Okay~. I won't ask for Himejima-san service for now as I can see that you're still pretty busy. Although I look forward to your service, Himejima-san~."
"Kuh!... I won't surrender to you!"
"Stop speaking like some stereotypical female knight in an erotic game." Kisuke grinned and commented.
"Wha!? You bas---!" Akeno was furious at his words but before she can take it out on him, Kisuke teleported her away... sending her again in the previous maid uniform shop.
"... Do you really have to piss her off too much?" Rias asks Kisuke. She wasn't worried about Akeno as this isn't the single instance Kisuke did this to her.
"Hmm... I swear I promised myself that I would piss her off as much as possible... As for why... I actually forgot." Kisuke looked up and touched his chin trying to recall it, but gave up after a second. "But kudos to myself still keeping my promise." He gave her a thumbs up and a bright smile.
Rias did a facepalm and sighed, giving up the notion of understanding his train of thoughts. She said her farewells again and teleported away to continue her work.
With the Gremorys' out of the way, Kisuke faced Sona and Tsubaki, "How about another cup of tea?"
"Heh... so you've guessed that I still have something else to say?" Sona looked at him in awe, 'I really want him in my peerage.'
"It's just a guess. I don't know if you really know something, but you should have noticed that the Underworld gave up pretty easily on Koneko's case."
"Hmm... I see. Thank you for the offer but we have to go, I still have to prepare for the inevitable headache coming for me. (And for you.)" Sona rubbed her forehead but she didn't say the last part, "What I want to say is that the Underworld is getting restless due to the disappearance of some Devils with noble lineage. The higher-ups are busy cracking this down and can't send more of their men to deal with Koneko's case."
"Hmm... Is that so? Thanks for the info~."
"You're welcome. Tsubaki."
"Yes, Kaichou."
Tsubaki cast teleportation magic bringing Sona and her back to school.
Enjoy~.

Just a heads up.
I want to reach 50 advance chapters on my pat,reon(my goal for this month) first before posting more chapters.
