"Are you done?" Gwenn returned with a bunch of snacks in her arms.
Kisuke first slowly lowered his head towards Gwenn before turning towards Stralit, "Well then, Ms. Stralit. I will be waiting for your contact." He didn't say anything else before leaving in a random direction.
Gwenn waited for him to disappear from her sight before asking, "Can we trust him?"
"Of course not. Although he was able to help me out, I don't know much about him." Stralit lied with a straight face, "But using him is a lot better than using Alicia's contacts. She's only hiding our existence because you're blackmailing her."
"That's true... It won't be long before someone notices so it's better to take some distance from her." While Gwenn has questions, she doesn't really become suspicious of Stralit, "What did you talk about anyway? Is he useful in the first place?"
"He apparently works directly under someone called Mephisto Pheles and has some information that we want."
Gwenn passes her snacks to Stralit before taking out her terminal to look up the name 'Mephisto Pheles', "...An influential and old Devil that primarily works within the Human World. He's the chairman of an organization of Magicians called Grauzauberer that remains neutral between Shiva and Indra. Hmmm... But there's nowhere in his profile that he's related to someone called John Smith. It's either he's a secret piece or not important enough to be listed here. Which is it?"
"Actually, he just gave me a piece of information. You could decide after hearing that."
"What is it?"
"The lover of your very important friend seems to have opened a path to another world once again."Gwenn's eyes widened and she hurriedly tapped away on her terminal. A few seconds later, she started muttering, "...There's no information about that at all. How accurate is this?"
Stralit just shrugged her shoulders, "Who knows? We'll be able to confirm that once Alicia gets the same information and verify it."
Gwenn wanted to directly ask Alicia about this but stopped herself. If this is true, then that would mean they got acquainted with someone who's capable of gathering vital information like this and she would hate it if Alicia gets him, "Let's wait for a few days. For the time being, I'll try contacting Yoruichi to ask more about this strange world and that strange space they call the Dimensional Gap."

[So they were able to enter Earth? My goodness, I know that the hole they created in the barrier is significant but to think they could easily come here... Might as well take down that wall.] Yoruichi grumbled.
"We can't do anything about that now. That Gwenn girl will probably contact you in a few days so I'll leave it to you to control the flow of information there."
[Don't worry about it. I'm done with my countermeasures. Aizen, however, I have no way to control him.]
"Let him do what he wants. Despite his strength, he's an incredibly cautious guy. Though I don't really have any way to control him. Once he notices, it'll only become a headache later on."
[Out of interest, he'll probably make contact with the Etouldes sooner or later.]
"I guess I have to warn Stralit about him next time we meet."
[What are you going to do next?]
"I already left my trail as John Smith so I just need to wait for their offers. To make it more convincing that I'm somewhat of a 'secret weapon', I don't plan to show myself anytime soon."
[And where are you going next?]
"To that deadly lady. I need to pass a message..." Kisuke paused for a moment before saying, "I'm sorry Yoruichi but I'll be the one taking their heads."
Yoruichi immediately knew who he was talking about and couldn't help but sigh, [...I'd like to do it myself but now that it has come to this, you're the only one with actual freedom among us. Any further delay will just make it harder to track them. But how much are you willing to show off?]
Kisuke smiled with a hint of the craze in it, "Tiamat and I probably won't pull any punches if required."
Yoruichi squinted her eyes, [You plan to wreak havoc without holding back?]
"Yep~ You guys prepare 'cause those robot guys will probably use this chance to go on the offensive."
Yoruichi sighed, [Fine...] But soon enough a crazed smile also appeared on her face, [If you plan to go all in, make sure to grab the feet of those higher-ups.]
"Leave it to me~!" Kisuke chuckled and ended the call. He was still keeping his disguise but he already left Draconic Deus some time ago and is on his way towards Seraselbes.

Sona, who had been listening to Yoruichi and Kisuke's conversation, had glistening eyes, "So we can finally do something?"
Yoruichi nodded, "Let's call everyone and prepare to set a trap. We won't be able to get everyone, but it's still good enough to slow them down."
"Wouldn't that give it away that we're somehow related to whatever he's going to do?"
"Probably, but without proper evidence, all they could do is speculate."
As they were talking, Sona saw an urgent notification pop in and the moment she brought it up she made a surprised expression, "How surprising..."
Yoruichi went around her and took a peek at her screen, "Hoo... Now they want direct contact? Do you think the DxD Team is aware of this?"
"With how things are going on with the Alliance, I doubt it. They're probably losing confidence in them so they had no choice but to let go of their middleman. And most probably, she's asking for direct contact because of those two new Etoulde that Kisuke told you." Sona replied while typing on her keyboard and setting up the schedule for the meeting, "Are you coming?"
"As long as it's only them. And I'll bring Aika too. I don't really want to be stared at by Gwenn too much."
"Alright. Aika is free too so she should be able to come immediately. Where should I set it up?"
Yoruichi thought about it for a moment before replying, "I guess somewhere deserted. Somewhere where a little bit of noise won't be a problem."
