Kidnapped

"So that would be everything?" Sona asked as she arranges her notes regarding Kisuke's terms.

"Yep~. I wouldn't want to strain my relationship with the Alliance by asking too much." Kisuke replied as he sips his tea.

"Understood." Sona took away her notes and stood up from the couch, "I will be passing this to Onee-sama now since she's probably the one who would do her best to establish a good relationship with you two."

"That would be wonderful. Thank you for your hard work."

"If you're thankful, treat me to some dinner some other time." Sona chuckled and turned around.

"It would be an honor to treat a beauty to a dinner~." Kisuke also stood up and accompanied her to the door.

Strangely enough, Sona isn't feeling embarrassed right now and only smiled at him, "I hold onto that... Well then, Good night~."

"Yep~. Good night."

Sona is tempted to ask for a goodbye kiss, but her courage is still not enough for that, so she started walking away without looking back.

Seeing her slowly went away, Yoruichi jumped out from the house and landed on Kisuke's shoulder, "No goodbye kiss?"

"Spare me with that. It'll be awkward." Kisuke then turned around to re-enter the house.

"You coward."

"Yep, yep~. I'm a coward, so let's go back to the training ground. I still have a lot of things to do." Kisuke reached the living room and saw Medusa cleaning up the center table, "You're still up?"

"I can't sleep with you still working."

"If you keep that up, you'll end up not sleeping for a few weeks."

"I'm fine with that. I don't need much sleep either."

"Well... If you're happy with that." Kisuke could only scratch his head. Even though he wanted a maid, he's still not used to someone taking care of every little thing for him.

But just as he and Yoruichi about to transfer to the training ground, both of them shuddered, "Ana! Go to the training ground first and wait for our return!" Kisuke hurriedly shouted before using Flash Step to leave the house.

Medusa was dumbfounded at the sudden order as she could feel Kisuke's genuine panic, but she immediately followed his instructions and teleported to the training ground without finishing her work.

A hundred meters away the house, Kisuke and Yoruichi arrived at a certain spot and caught a glimpse of a magic circle before it disappeared.

Kisuke, however, was able to memorize it and immediately started calculating its destination coordinates, "Yoruichi... Call mom. Tell her that a Non-Aggression Alliance was successfully established between the Three Great Factions. After that, tell her to bring Cleria and her family with her back to the Belial Clan in the Underworld... If they ask why, tell them just in case something happens to us."

"...Got it." Yoruichi transformed back to her human form and took out a token that would only be used to contact Sakura in case of an emergency.

Five minutes into unstop calculation, Kisuke finally figured out the teleportation magic's destination and his brow furrowed further, "...Yoruichi, stay here."

"No." Yoruichi glared at him.

"Chances are, this is just a big trap, but I have no choice but to dive in and save Sona. The problem is, I don't have any idea what will happen once I entered and all I know is that Grim Reapers are the one who took her away and they brought her to a small realm somewhere around the Dimensional Gap."

"All the more reason for you to take me! We would have more options for working together!"

"But..."

"No buts!" Yoruichi knocked his head, "I'm happy that you're protective of me but remember, I've always been beside you when there is a big battle and I don't want that to change!"

Kisuke sighed, "Fine... Are you ready?"

"Anytime."

"Good." Kisuke then devised his own magic circle that has the same destination point as the one he calculated earlier and a few seconds later, both of them disappeared.

Inside of a large stone dome, a gigantic and complicated magic circle, glowing in dim red light, is etched on the floor. In the middle of it is a stone altar and lying on it is the unconscious Sona.

Blood continuously flows out of her to the magic circle below, powering it, due to the slits on the main arteries of her limbs. Even with her strong Devil physique, it wouldn't take 15 minutes before she dies from blood loss.

Around the magic circle are black-robed Grim Reapers chanting and controlling the sacrificial spell in this large dome.

"Who's that?" Ask the beautiful young woman with the cute face of a child that has long black hair and with pointy ears to the Grim Reaper beside her. She wears a cute frilly dress that has a corset jumper skirt. Her body is also giving out a tremendous dark aura.

"Nyx-sama, she's the heir to the House of Sitri, a Prince Rank in the Underworld." Answered the Grim Reaper in dark robes decorated with ornaments and what was described as a 'clown mask' on his face.

"Heh..." Nyx let out a slightly impressed voice, "Are you not afraid of others finding out what you plan to do now that you targeted someone from a prominent house?"

"Not at all, Nyx-sama. We have already arranged our scapegoat."

"How much of the seal can be removed after her draining all of her blood?"

"Since she's from a prominent house, a pureblood Devil, and the little sister of the current Devil King, 7% of the seal should be relieved."

"That much? Wow... I guess you can really complete this plan... By the way, I came here to deal with a human, but will he really come here? This is a pretty secretive place after all."

"He will come. Hades-sama already arranges everything and he's surely come."

"But what's taking him so long..." Nyx then saw a magic circle appearing below them, and with it, a man with pale blond hair wearing a bucket hat and traditional Japanese clothing and a woman with purple hair and dark skin appeared, "Looks like they're here."

Without any hesitation, Nyx sent a wave of black energy towards Kisuke and Yoruichi.

Kisuke and Yoruichi got out of the way and the black wave of energy heat the floor, but it didn't damage it.

When both of them saw this, they didn't think that the black energy is weak at all, on the contrary, it's very strong and should be enough to destroy most of the Kuoh Town. What's strange is the durability of the place.

Kisuke and Yoruichi immediately scanned everything in the room and ascertain Sona's condition. When they finally confirmed it with their eyes, Kisuke and Yoruichi instantly raged, but that didn't let it cloud their judgment.

'What's this ritual? And this room... it's strangely durable. Whatever... The first priority is to secure Sona and get out of this place. Dealing with all of these can come later.' Kisuke and Yoruichi looked at each other and nodded.

"Shunko!" Yoruichi disappeared from her spot and started massacring every Grim Reaper working on the ritual. She could have gone straight to Sona and pull her out, but she doesn't know the inner workings of the ritual and she might just do Sona more harm so she left it on Kisuke who is capable of analyzing the situation better.

I heard you like things escalating quick, here you go~.

Enjoy~.
