Chapter 32: [32]Ara?
Yeah things are definitely going to go crash and burn soon.
Considering that Aponia, the woman who can definitely see the future, is kneeling in front of me calling me a 'Saviour'.
There's also the fact that they are wearing makeshift concealment rings, probably to hide their mana from the devil's that rule this Kuoh
You would be surprised but Titanium is a decently good conductor for mana. Well like I said, it's decent as it can't take to much of it. It goes 'kaboom' if it does go over it's limit, that's unless you write some stabelazation magic circles on it which stabilize the mana inside.
Well back to Aponia, all things considered. There's either one of two options, either the Hersher are coming to our world or Trihexa is going to be unsealed with or without [Sephiroth Graal] assistance along chaos brigade.
Sadly it's the first one as I've already confirmed that Elysia has the core of Origin within her.
When I was doing my 'thing' with her earlier I was actually checking if she had a core of any sorts. From afar I couldn't feel any honkai energy from her but it never hurts to check up close.
And guess what?, my gamble paid off. Elysia seems to have a very good control of her Honkai energy and Core. It's to the point we're even I need to get up close to her to sense it even a little bit.
But despite me knowing that she has the core, Elysia herself doesn't know that I have one since I sealed my core completely before hand so that she wouldn't sense it.
Good thing I did otherwise she would have found out from just a touch.
"Get up Aponia we have a lot to talk about" I spoke up as I broke the shocked silence.
"Sigh all of you meet me at Kuoh Park after school, it's better of we talk about this with no 'devils' hearing us" I didn't even bother looking at them as I walked away.
"Eh?, wait Otto!" Elysia ran to me as she began speed walking by my side.
"What was that?, I've never seen Aponia do something like that?. Come on tell me~" It seems like Aponia's actions made Elysia even more curious.
"Sorry but you will have to wait after school" I responded.
"Are you sure Kevin is even going to come?, he's a very... carefull person" the last part of her sentence seems worried.
"He will, if he wants to find out about everything then he will definitely come" Kevin might be a careful person but he's definitely uninformed. And considering that they had Vill-V create make shift concealment rings with just titanium then I can only guess that they have no backing. No backing means lack of information, and lack of information means their curiosity.
I did hear them talking about the devil's so at least they are aware of them but not the whole other mess that they will have to deal in the future.
"Hmm please give little'ol Elysia a sneak peek~" she tried to sweet talk her way into some early information.
Fine of she wants it that way then there no other option left.
I stoped walking as Elysia looked at me with curiosity, ready to hear what I had to say.
I stretched out my hand as a bouquet of flower where birthed on my hands with [Rebirth] and wrapped them with some decorations with [Reason].
Rias and Sona might be able to sense mana if I use it in school but they have no way of sensing Honkai energy.
Elysia only looked at my hands with her mouth life open, her beautiful eyes dilated as they looked at the bouquet of flower in my hand.
"You don't want them?, it's rude to refuse such a beautiful gift~" She didn't say anything as she just took the flowers silenty.
I knew this was going to happen, but she was going to find out sooner or later. Not like she's any different but my origins is different than hers.
I only walked away as Elysia kept looking at the bouquet of flower in her hand.

Elysia PoV-
*Sigh*
I was quite surprised when Otto use that energy.
I could even feel one of 'those' inside of him, but despite that it feels... different.
Fundamentally speaking it doesn't feel like it originates from where I did.
The greater will
It's as if he obtained that power by himself and not through bestowed means.
How troublesome but at the same time I'm Curious
Curious about who Otto really is~
Looking at the departing Otto I sighed and returned back to my friend, it seems like I'll have some convincing to do, after all he owes me a proper answer~
---
As night fell over the night of Kuoh a few students could be seen waiting in a park.
"Are you sure about this Kevin ?" Said Su, he knew that they needed info but...is it really worth it?
Especially when it was all of them in the same place.
For all they know Otto could be planning their 'accidental' disappearances.
"No I don't trust him, but Elysia and Aponia vouched for him. That enough should give him our benefit of doubt" Kevin trust his comrades completeley, even if he might be stubborn for their safety.
Especially Aponia since she has the best judge of characters, and there's also the fact that she's a psychic so she should have already a small read of his intentions.
"Do not worry Kevin, my Lord shall enlighten you from what I couldn't not" Aponia couldn't warn them of the Honkai but perhaps he could?
Now that fate has becometh a blurred line in her eyes ever since Otto arrived, things have becomes more unpredictable.
"Why do you keep calling him Lord?.Ah!, is it some kink play you two do?" Asked Pardofelis with a slight smile.
"Mou~ dont say things like that Pardo, stop teasing poor Aponia~"
"Sigh I'm surprised by how laxed you two are" sighed Fu Hua, from the moment she entered the park her senses have been flaring off telling her that something was wrong, and Kevin was the same as her.
"I agree with her, all of you are to relaxed" spoke a monotone voice that was in the middle of the group.
"..." Kevin didn't dare move, that voice that had just spoken was none of his comrades. He had neither sensed the woman neither knew she was there the whole time, that also included the other as well.
One wrong move or twitch of his could mean the end of his and their lives.
"Who are you?" Asked Kevin without turning back to see the mysterious woman.
"I am her on behalf of Lord Otto" She said with a small bow, full of elegance and dignity how a maid should be.
"Ara? such a cute girl~" elysia who didn't know how to read the tense atmosphere, hugged Rita as she thought that she looked super cute In her maid dress.
Kevin widened her eyes at Elysia's actions "Elysia No-"
"It is fine, master Otto informed me about Ms. Elysia's...unique personality" Rita was already prepared to get hugged by her as Otto was more than sure that Elysia would hug her while saying something along the lines of 'What a cute girl~'
Basically, Otto already had Elysia's personality figure out.
"Let's not waste any more time, let's go" before any of them could say a thing, a purple fog consumed them completely making them disappear from the park.
