Kisuke turned his head and saw Riveria with a tired expression and Devil wings out, "What? They couldn't accept your explanation?"
Riveria grimaced and replied, "... It's more that they couldn't believe what they were seeing. After all, in this world, race is something you can't really do anything about and the source of many conflicts."
The Deities found Kisuke and Riveria with bloodshot eyes. With Loki in the lead, she ran towards Kisuke, "Kisuke! What is this!? How is this possible!?"
"It's a reincarnation system that was created by a certain genius to replenish the depleted Devils after a great war. No point in saying anything more than that."
"B-but-"
Kisuke interrupted her, "No buts. You just need to know that you can't apply your common sense here or you'll just trap yourself in a jail of your own making."
"Guhh..." Loki stopped and looked at Riveria who was not willing to tell anything more. Those behind her also stopped and reigned in their curiosity. Nonetheless, a certain possibility emerged in their minds. If Riveria could do it, wouldn't that mean that it's also possible for the rest of the children to do the same?
Not willing to entertain their silly thoughts, Loki sighed, "Fine... I apologize."
"It's fine." Kisuke was planning on briefing them on what they should do next and slowly unlock the powers of the rest of the Deities who just came. But before he could do so, a small rumble came from a distance and only those with sensitive enough senses were able to feel it.
However, Kisuke couldn't help but widen his eyes because the dagger in his sleeve started reacting to the out-of-place rumble. Without any hesitation, he connected his Communication Magic to Aika, "Ask Issei to come back and prepare the cannons. Fire it at the shell as soon as possible!"
Aika didn't question his abrupt decision and instead asked, [It'll take a few minutes to gather enough power to deal with the enemy Deities. Will you be able to hold out?]
While giving Riveria a hand signal, Kisuke replied, "I can fix the formation I left in Orario to deal with Tiamat so I'll be able to transfer everyone out except for Chaos." After giving his instructions to Riveria, Kisuke hurriedly flew towards Orario.
[Issei is returning. One minute before impact.]
"Prepare for the second volley as soon as possible."
[Understood. I've also issued an emergency summon and Sona-chan will lead everyone to meet the enemy. Should I also call Ophis, Lilith, and Flanna?]
"No. They have an important job to accomplish. However, please do tell Sona to aim for a defensive battle. Just keep everyone busy while I deal with the big boss."
[Alright. Good luck. I won't distract you anymore.] Aika then cut the connection because she knew that the suddenness behind Kisuke's actions would mean that he would need some time to analyze the situation.
Halfway through his flight, Kisuke flew to the side and let a 7-meter wide blinding beam of red light pass by him. And the beam was sitting more than 10 meters above the ground, it still melted its path and it's a testament to how much destructive power is behind the beam.
Although it was still just a dot within his vision, Kisuke could see the beam of light slam on the black dome and shake it horribly.
The black dome managed to resist for ten seconds before it couldn't take anymore and the beam bore a 7-meter hole in it before weakening and entirely disappearing as if it was just a bad dream.
A few seconds later, Kisuke arrived near the dome and saw parts of it flaking off as it couldn't take the burden anymore and started collapsing. Nonetheless, he immediately ignored the collapse of the structure and scanned what was inside.
He saw a few Deities on the surface and the Deities also saw him, all wearing terrified expressions. Chaos promised them that his barrier will be able to hold on for at least a week no matter how much they attack it from the outside. However, Kisuke suddenly appeared after the horrifying light so there's only one reaction from them after witnessing this misunderstanding. They all escaped to the depths of the Dungeon where they could feel safer from the arrival of the monster.
Since they even left their children, they really threw away their pride to save their hides.
'Now that's convenient.' Kisuke thought to himself while taking back the energy that was needed to release his Shunkou, 'Did they inherit Chaos' cowardly nature?'
'In any case, this has just become a lot easier for me and it won't just be the [Expulsion] formation that I'll be able to restore, but 'that' too.' Kisuke didn't wait for any further trouble and began working on fixing the formation that was broken with their battle with Tiamat, 'I can't afford to make any mistakes. A single wrong choice will cost me my life. Hopefully, I read him right.'
A few minutes later, Kisuke had managed to fix the formations that he needed and was surprised that no one came to bother him, 'Are they setting a trap for me? Too bad, I'm not here to play with them.' Without any further delay, Kisuke activated the [Expulsion] formation and everyone aside from the being that couldn't move was teleported away from the Dungeon to random directions several hundreds of kilometers away. If they really were preparing a trap for him, it instantly became useless.
After taking a deep breath, Kisuke prepared himself and descended with suitable speed toward the deepest part of the Dungeon.
As he went through the once familiar Dungeon, he could see black veins throbbing along its walls, ceilings, and floors, 'Tiamat said that it would take him some time to get what he wants, but clearly, that isn't the case anymore.'
It didn't take long for Kisuke to arrive at the very bottom where he'd battled Tiamat and saw that Chaos was standing in the middle while watching a humanoid figure with pure black skin in a fetal position embedded in the ground with a faint barrier covering it. As soon as he saw the 'corpse', Kisuke instantly noticed it had the same face as Tiamat.
"You're fast, Kisuke Urahara." Chaos took his gaze off from the 'corpse' and turned to him, "But in the end, it is your arrogance that'll cause you your demise."
"If you prepared a speech for me, save it. I'm not really in the mood to listen to the rambling of a guy who thinks he's at the very top of everything yet is the most cowardly of them all."
