"So what can I do for you, Holy Mother? I doubt you revealed your presence because you just wanted a chat." Kisuke gave up trying to guess her intentions and completely ignored the other two, 'Looks like they won't be doing anything anyway.'
[That's incorrect. It is you who needs sothing from . This one might make more mistakes so I'm just making it easier for the both of us.]
Corvina flinched. Although she doesn't know what sort of grievous mistake she made, it is apparent for her that the Holy Mother is talking about her.
Kisuke was silent for a while to think of his response. It was a few minutes of uncomfortable silence, but Kisuke ultimately agreed to make it easier for both of them, "I just want to know what your stance regarding your husband's actions on Draconic Deus... And what you're going to do when... You know... I 'accidentally' kill him because he's ddling too much." Kisuke couldn't help but leak a bit of his very dense bloodlust towards the end of his sentence. He wanted to confirm if there's so truth to Seraselbes' words that the Holy Mother and Holy Father don't get along, which is the sole reason why he's here in the first place.
Corvina and Adrenna wanted to speak out, but with the Holy Mother in their presence, they couldn't have their turn yet. And even if they could, they have this strange feeling that the man in front of them is, by so miracle, capable of toppling one of the pillar Gods that existed since the inception of the Evie Etoulde world and have no words to deny it, not after the Holy Mother claid that he can destroy the Luxuex clan with relative ease.
There was another minute of silence but this ti, it was not uncomfortable, but dreadful. Corvina and Adrenna looked at Kisuke with complete hostility but the latter just continued ignoring them since whatever the Holy Mother decided to do, Kisuke knew they had no say in it.
[Accidentally kill, huh? That's a threat that I can't easily let go of... But if it's just sealing him for a bit, I think we can discuss it.] Contrary to Kisuke's tone earlier, Chimune's tone beca jovial at the end of her sentence.
This didn't just shock Corvina and Adrenna but also Kisuke. Although it wasn't a straight answer, it was still far different from what he was expecting, 'Seraselbes is actually right about them?'
"I know killing him is out of the question, but sealing him is fine? Are you two going through so marital issues?" Kisuke jokingly asked, but wasn't really expecting an answer because he was trying to buy so ti to arrange his thoughts and maybe could indeed get Chimune's cooperation regarding certain things.
[You're misunderstanding sothing, Kisuke Urahara. We, the Pillar Gods, don't have the sa relationship dynamics as you mortals have. We only use labels for the sake of simplicity. Although lvazoa, Regalzeva, and Seraselbes call themselves siblings, and Resetoras and I called the Holy Father and Mother, it doesn't hold the sa aning as you're thinking.]
"...In other words?"
[Hmmm... Partners, colleagues. It's much more complicated than that, but those are probably more accurate depictions of our relationships. However, those don't do good when you're trying to run a whole civilization where 'blood' and 'lineage' was given the utmost importance.]
Kisuke was still trying to understand her words when Tiamat talked to him, [That's probably true as the sa could be said to my sister and . Even though we were born at the sa ti and in the sa place, that technically is just us randomly spawning out of nothing, a re coincidence.]
'The mysteries of the universe... or multiverse, I guess?' Kisuke thought to himself.
"I think you know that we're already running out of ti so I won't ask why you're agreeing with this, but should we discuss how we'll stop and seal him?"
[That's true... But we'll do that another ti. It's ti for you to leave now.]
Kisuke was confused, "You understand that yet you want to leave now? When is this another ti?" They were really out of ti so why postpone it? Although he's prepared for so delay, he was already expecting sothing concrete when he successfully told the Holy Mother, 'Did I misunderstand her intentions?'
[You'll know. And don't worry. It'll be sooner than you think.]
Kisuke stared into Corvina's eyes for a few monts before letting out a defeated breath, "Fine. I'm going to be very busy moving forward so when the ti cos, I hope it's convenient for all of us." He stood up and used his [Shadow] to find out the way out. Since the barrier surrounding this facility had been taken down, it was easy for Kisuke to find a path.
A few seconds later, he lded with the Shadow and disappeared, leaving behind the two people and one 'ghost'.
"M-master, what do you intend to do?"
[Corvina, I trust you... And this war has gone on for far too long.]
After leaving those perplexing words, Corvina could feel her master's consciousness disappear.

[What are you going to do next?]
'Prepare to retreat. Although I threatened her to kill the Holy Father, I won't be able to do that if I can't even et him. I was hoping that this Holy Mother would be able to pull him out, but I guess that's out of the question as of now.'
[You don't trust that she'll discuss it with you in ti?]
'It's not about trust. There's just no way I won't do sothing when waiting for sothing I'm not sure would even co.'
But just as he got out of one of the many gates he had to go through to go ho, another familiar voice resounded in his head, [Should we discuss it now, Kisuke Urahara?]
Understandably, Kisuke instantly froze on his spot and in panic, hurriedly scanned his surroundings and himself, "W-what!? How?"
The voice didn't give any regard to his panicked state and just continued with her jovial voice, [I told you, it'll be sooner than you think.]
[Let's go back and eliminate Corvina] Tiamat imdiately suggested.
'Good call. Stralit won't be able to forgive , but we have to cut this connection... A peeping tom's connection.' Kisuke turned around intending to go through the gate that he just ca out of.
Seeing his actions, the voice asked, [You're going back? Why?]
Kisuke stopped for a few seconds before thinking, 'Looks like she can't hear us.'
[How would you rate my rapid response?] Tiamat asked, proud of herself.
Kisuke didn't think that Tiamat would be fishing out complints this ti but he gave her what she wanted, 'It was great. Although we're still not sure if she couldn't really hear us or she's just pretending to be unaware.'
[It's true that she can pretend to not notice us discussing killing her precious disciple, but I can assure you she can't.]
'On what grounds?'
[She's using Prima Materia to attach her consciousness to you. I would have noticed it if she were to directly attach that to your soul or consciousness like I did with the Soul King's remnant.]
