Chapter 223 - Kokabiel vs Kisuke (1/2)
”What!? No!?” Sona immediately rejected her words and faced Kisuke, ”I don't why Yoruichi doesn't want to help, but if you're going to get involved in this, then I won't allow it! Although you're pretty strong for a human, I can't let you against that guy!” Sona then grabbed Kisuke's kimono, ”So, please... Escape... I don't want any harm coming to you because of my mistake...”
At this point, Sona's concern is only his safety and how not to get involved with their problem. Kisuke, in response, only smiled wryly and wiped the tears that are threatening to fall from her eyes while patting her head. He then faced Yoruichi, ”Is this really how they see me?”
”It's your fault. No other reason.” Yoruichi chuckled at his question.
Everyone is confused at what they are talking about but it seems that the newcomers aren't nervous at all since they can still laugh. So looked up to him and asked, ”What do you mean...?”
”Well... Just watch.” Kisuke then separated from her and walked while facing Kokabiel who is still silently watching his movements. He already dispelled the giant spear of light in his hand long ago.
”Wait! Where are you going!?” Sona tried to stop him but found herself frozen in place, '!?'
”Sona-chan, it seems that you're misunderstanding something...” Yoruichi grinned at the unmoving Sona.
”Misunderstanding?”
”Yes... It's true that I'm on a different level than Kisuke.”
”Then why are you not stopping him from doing something so reckless!?”
”Listen... When I said I'm on a different level, I meant I'm way below him.”
Before everyone could process Yoruichi's words, Kisuke started talking to Kokabiel, ”How kind of you to just let us talk like that.”
”Hmmph. I just amused on the way you teleported. Did you think that you'll be able to bluff your way out with that kind of show?” Kokabiel sneered at him. He's referring to Kisuke's Senkaimon.
”No no no... I wouldn't bluff my way out. In fact, I won't let you escape.” Kisuke sported a large grin and his eyes were flashing ominous lights.
Kokabiel already knew that he shouldn't underestimate his opponent after going against Aika so he readied himself. Despite that, however, the pride in his bone as a high ranking Fallen Angel couldn't be suppressed, ”Hooh... So you're saying that I'll be the one escaping? I'd like to see you try.”
”With pleasure~.” Kisuke then suddenly disappeared, but unlike Aika, who would leave a bunch of clues where she would be landing and the fact that Kisuke's Flash Step is already polished, Kokabiel wasn't able to react despite watching his surroundings carefully. Kokabiel suddenly found the sole of wooden sandals in front of his face and he was kicked away so hard that his face deformed, '!?'
