"HAHAHAHA!"

Medea, Ingvild and Semiramis looked at Jason in astonishment, he seemed to have gone mad.

"Is it always like this?" Semiramis asked.

Ingvild said nothing and Medea simply shook her head. It wasn't the first time Jason did something strange, something incredible always happened when he acted like that.

"We don't have to worry about Hanging Gardens of Babylon materials."

They all gave him a strange look. Didn't you just say you had no way to get them?

"Does it have relation with `that´?" asked Medea.

Jason nodded. Medea already knew everything about the System so there was no reason to hide it from her.

"When are we going to have the materials?" Semiramis didn't care about the conversation between Medea and Jason, she wanted the materials so she could show her Master how incredible her noble phantasm was.

"Within 1 year," replied Jason.

Semiramis nodded, it didn't seem like much time considering the amount of materials and how rare they were.

"What do you have to do to get them?"

Medea knew it wasn't that easy and asked about the mission. Jason smiled and looked at Semiramis.

"Semiramis"

"Yes?"

"I'm going to send you and Kuroka to investigate something for me."

Semiramis was confused but nodded anyway. She was not going to disobey an order from her Master.

"Ingvild, call Kuroka"

Ingvild got up and went to look for Kuroka.

Jason adopted a serious attitude.

"I want you to teach Kuroka about poison and assassination methods while you're on the mission."

Semiramis frowned when she heard Jason.

"Not everyone can go through my training, if I'm going to train her I'm not going to show mercy."

Jason smiled at Semiramis' words.

"I was worried that you would show it."

"A little girl able to endure 3 years of hard experiments just to protect her little sister, do you think she couldn't take a simple training?"

"My training is not simple," Semiramis muttered softly.

"In addition, she is extremely talented with poisons," Jason continued. "In the beginning it was going to be Medea who was going to teach her, but I think you are more suitable for the job".

Semiramis felt a warm feeling when she felt Jason's confidence in her.

"It's okay, I'll train her." Semiramis agreed.

"I've already brought her."

Ingvild walked in next to a 13-year-old Nekoshou with black hair, her breasts were already starting to stick out.

Kuroka looked curiously at the two women sitting around a tea table and Jason standing to one side.

"Sit Kuroka" Jason seriously ordered.

Kuroka sat nervously as she felt the tense atmosphere. She felt a gaze fixed on her and crossed glances with Semiramis.

Semiramis nodded at the sight of Kuroka. Kuroka looked similar to Semiramis, black hair, golden eyes and wide breasts.

"Do you know why I called you here?

Kuroka shook his head.

"You're going to be sent on a mission with Semiramis."

Kuroka opened his eyes in surprise and looked up at Semiramis, a chill running down her back as she saw the smile she was giving her.

"She's going to be your teacher from now on."

"I refuse Nya!" Kuroka immediately refused.

Jason was not surprised but Semiramis raised her eyebrows in surprise.

"Why," Semiramis asked curiously.

Kuroka gave Semiramis a look of disdain.

"I'm very strong-Nya, I don't think you can teach me anything-Nya."

Now it was Jason who was surprised, wasn't she calling death?

"Hahaha, what an interesting girl"

Kuroka frowned as she listened to Semiramis. She had been at Jason's house when she was summoned so she did not know who Semiramis was or her powers, but she knew that after the experiments her strength had increased greatly and she had confidence in herself.

"What must I do to make you accept me as a teacher?" Semiramis asked curiously.

"Defeat me in combat-Nya, if you defeat me I will let you be my teacher" Kuroka smiled "But if you lose... I will think what will happen if you lose-Nya".

"Are you sure?" asked Jason.

"Yes!" Both nodded at the same time.

"It's okay."

Everyone left the store, Medea created a barrier where the two were going to fight while Ingvild went to call the rest of Nekoshou.

"Jason-sama, why are they going to fight?" Nekohime asked Jason.

"Don't you know that curiosity kills the cat?"

Nekohime blushed and looked away.

"Idiot" murmured.

"Did you say something?"

Nekohime blushed even more and lowered her head so low that her chin touched her chest.

Everyone laughed when they saw the normally dignified Nekohime acting like a maiden in love.

In the barrier that Medea had created.

Kuroka and Semiramis faced each other, both wearing the blue and red kimono with the words Soaring Dragon on their backs.

"Are you ready-Nya?"

"Anytime, kiddo."

Kuroka stepped into a combat position while Semiramis remained in a relaxed position.

"Isn't she leaving too many openings?" Chloe asked.

"It seems so," Sarashiki commented.

Nekohime didn't say anything but her face said she agreed with the other two.

Chloe came to a revelation.

"Is she leaving them on purpose?"

Jason just smiled and kept quiet.

The conversation could not be heard inside the barrier. Kuroka frowned (Are you underestimating me or are you trying to deceive me?)

" Start" Medea's voice was heard inside the barrier.

Kuroka ran at full speed toward Semiramis. Kuroka threw quick blows at Semiramis before withdrawing. Semiramis was still in the same place, apparently she had not moved at all.

" She is intact!" Sarashiki exclaimed from the outside.

Kuroka frowned and active her Senjutsu. Touki covered her body and ran again toward Semiramis, hurling another flurry of blows.

Kuroka withdrew again, Semiramis still in the same place with a mocking smile on his face.

"You're not so bad-Nya"

"Neither did you, it looks like Jason was right."

"Now I'm gonna get serious-Nya"

Kuroka used his Senjutsu to create wheels of flames.

"She's going to use her Kasha," Blair said.

Kuroka threw her Kasha at Semiramis. Semiramis then made her first move.

She raised her arm and grabbed Kuroka's Kasha.

"She's crazy!" Chloe shouted incredulously, all Nekoshou thought alike. Only Jason, Medea and Ingvild knew what was going to happen.

A strange smoke came out of the hand holding the Kasha. In front of the stunned glances of Kuroka and all the Nekoshou, the Kasha was extinguished.

"Poison?" Kuroka asked stunned.

"That's right.

Kuroka was not going to accept her defeat so quickly.

"I have poison too"

Kuroka used his Youjutsu and tried to poison Semiramis.

"Idiot," Jason said.

"Why do you say that, Jason-sama? I think Kuroka's poison is quite powerful," asked Nekohime.

"Leaving aside that the poison created by Youjutsu only affects Devils and Youkais, do you think it's a good idea to use poison against the creator of the poisons?"

The Nekoshou were surprised to hear the words.

"You mean she's not a devil?" Blair asked.

"No, she's a demigoddess," Jason replied.

They all opened their eyes wide, if what Jason said was true then Kuroka had no chance against Semiramis.

The poisonous fog covered Semiramis and Kuroka gave a victorious smile.

"Not bad poison"

Kuroka's smile froze at the sound of Semiramis' voice.

"Do you have anything else?" Not receiving a reply from Kuroka, Semiramis smiled, "Then I suppose it's time to make my move.

Semiramis released her aura that she had kept hidden. Kuroka could not withstand the pressure and knelt forcibly.

The Nekoshou stared in terror at what was happening inside the barrier. They could not feel the pressure as they were protected by the barrier, but they could see the magical circles behind Semiramis pointing at Kuroka.

The number of magical circles was so large that they seemed infinite. When Kuroka spat blood when she lifted her head and saw the magical circles, but still did not surrender.

"That's enough!"
