The next morning, Kisuke ca out of Kuroka's room after cleaning her up. He then went straight to the dining room to et everyone and have breakfast. But as he entered the room, he received a glare from everyone except for dusa.
"Did you properly clean up the kitchen?" Yoruichi asked first.
"Y-yeah… I cleaned them up before leaving…"
Sighing, Yoruichi added, "I didn't think you two will do it here… And so of the whipped creams disappeared…"
"Just what sort of play did you two partake yesterday?" Aika curiously asked.
Kisuke sat down and answered, "Uhmm… wet and ssy play?"
The girls were dumbfounded at his answer and started imagining what happened last night, with Kuroka and Kisuke 'eating' each other, "…Damn… That's hot…" Aika muttered.
Suddenly raising her hand, Yoruichi announced, "I want the sa treatnt tonight!"
Soone else then followed. Raising her hand, Sona also presented her desire with a blush on her face, "…T-then I want it too…"
Everyone knew that she wanted the sa thing after Yoruichi, however, Yoruichi herself has a different idea, "Oh? You want it too? Then let's go together~."
" " " "Eh!?" " " "
"You're fine with that, right, Kisuke?"
"If you're okay with it, then I'm down! No way I'll be missing this~."
"What about it, Sona?"
With a red face, Sona looked back and forth between the Yoruichi and Kisuke. She wanted to refuse for her ntal health, but sowhere inside her, there's a burning desire to go along with their idea which she can't ignore. Gathering her courage, she answered with a very soft voice, "…Okay."
"Great~. We'll do it tonight, so prepare yourself~." Yoruichi and Kisuke then proceeded to work on their breakfast while Sona did her best to ignore the incredulous stares that are coming from the girls who're thrown out of the loop by pretending to fix the position of her glasses and focusing on her breakfast.
That morning, Aika, Koneko, and dusa couldn't say anything. And more than anything, the feeling of being left out is unbearable that each one of them started scheming how to let Kisuke make a move on them.
After the awkward breakfast, the girls got ready as they would be exploring the Dungeon today too. They intended to gain more excelia until they can't anymore.
"By the way, you should say your greetings to Sophie-san… If you don't want to be scolded later." Kisuke reminded them.
"… She'll probably scold us regardless…" Sona muttered.
"What's your plan for today?" Yoruichi asked Kisuke.
"So guests will probably arrive today so I'll be staying at the shop today. And please tell Sophie-san that I leveled up."
"Got it. We'll be going~." Yoruichi then asked for her goodbye kiss. And just like yesterday, everyone lined up behind her to get their goodbye kisses too even if it's just on their forehead.
"Be careful~."
After everyone left, Kisuke first wrote a note to inform Kuroka of everyone's plans for today when she wakes up later before making his way towards his shop to open it.
Kisuke spent three hours silently combining his Reiatsu-Ki before his expected guests arrived, "Kisuke-kun? Are you in?"
Opening his eyes, Kisuke shouted back, "Hestia-sama! I'm here."
Hearing his voice, Hestia entered the shop, and along with her are two more Goddesses. The first one is the familiar Loki while the other one is an eye-patched beauty that Kisuke already knew through Yoruichi and Kuroka's investigation.
"Oh my~. Good morning Loki-sama" Kisuke first greeted Loki before facing the other Goddess, "And this is…?"
"Hephaestus." The eye-patched beauty introduced herself
Giving a big smile, Kisuke introduced himself, "Hephaestus-sama~. Good morning to you. I'm Kisuke Urahara, the captain of Hestia Familia and the owner of this humble shop."
"Nice to et you too, Kisuke-kun. Thank you for taking care of my friend, but you shouldn't spoil her too much. Or she'll revert back to being a shut-in Goddess."
"Hephaestus!?"
"Ahaha~. You need not worry about that, Hephaestus-sama. Hestia-sama usually takes care of this shop so she isn't technically unemployed."
Hearing that, Hestia imdiately beca proud in front of her friend, "See? I'm not a shut-in anymore!"
However, with Hestia sticking out her chest, Loki beca infuriated, "Although I heard that there's almost no custor that cos to this shop which resulted in you to just eat and sleep all day."
"Ugh!"
Not minding Loki's words, Kisuke continued, "I was not expecting a guest today. To whom do I owe this pleasure of the visit from the Goddesses of top Familias?" A simple lie. He wanted to test if they can really tell a lie from truth and to what extent.
Loki and Hephaestus looked towards Kisuke with neutral expressions for a few seconds before Loki spoke up, "Trying to test if lies are really detected?"
Smiling happily, Kisuke replied, "Yep~. And thank you for your response~." Turning around, Kisuke invited everyone inside the shop, "Please co in. I'll prepare so snacks and tea. We can talk after that."
Hestia happily followed Kisuke when she heard about the snacks while Loki and Hephaestus first looked and nodded at each other before entering. However, before she could step inside, Hephaestus' eye caught the cane on Kisuke hand and exclaid, "W-what's that!?"
"Phae-tan?" "Hephaestus?" Loki and Hestia called out in confusion.
'As expected of the Goddess of Forge… She was able to see through it…' Kisuke thought before chuckling, "As expected of Goddess of Forge~. You were able to see through its trick~."
"Trick? What trick?" Loki asked curiously.
Kisuke then pulled out the blade from the cane, "This is the trick~. My main weapon~. And it was forged in a unique way and probably caught Hephaestus-sama's interest."
Loki has been suspicious of Kisuke all this ti as she hasn't heard him lie ever since they first t and thought of the possibility of a mortal capable of lying to Gods. However, his lie earlier gave her a sense of comfort since she was able to detect his lie, causing her to drop a bit of her guard.
So when Loki heard about it being forged in a unique way, she didn't think much of it anymore, contrary to Hephaestus who has an idea of the blade's true identity, 'A child tricking the Goddess of Trickery? A lie born from the truth? Who is he?' She then looked towards Kisuke's eyes and sighed, "Forgive my reaction. It's my first ti seeing this forging technique." She decided to play along with him. That way, she can hear more about the blade later.
Loki thought that Hephaestus' reaction is a bit weird but didn't dwell on it further as she too has so things in her mind that she wanted answers from Kisuke.
