"Please stop this at once!"
The latest entrant is a petite woman with long dark red hair. She was wearing a white one-piece dress with a black jacket on it.
He came running and stopped between Medusa and Dennis, "Please stop this! This tradition is inhuman and must be abolished!"
Theodore sighed, "Here we go again ..."
"Enough with your bullshit, Elexa! It was not a human, but a monster that had cost many lives in the past! So what you said doesn't apply to him!" Dennis's headache grew worse when the last competitor of the House of Shield appeared.
It wasn't that he was a threat to the Clan Chief's seat because he was the weakest of all. He was so weak that he would lose even to an ordinary bastard on the road. Only his unrelenting sermon bothered Dennis the most, "In addition, it didn't really matter as he would come back to life after a hundred years or so. And killing her was the order of Athena's mistress. Our clan only used that opportunity to choose the next Chief."
"That's..." Exela wants to refute her, but she's afraid of antagonizing Athena because you may never know when she's listening.
"seen? It's been like this since our predecessor. Nothing needs to change." Dennis did not give up and continued talking.
"But we can change it now! He must not suffer for our benefit!" But Elexa is very stubborn and will not really change what she believes is right. In other words, after seeing Medusa suffer for countless years, the Hero Complex inside her woke up and wanted to stop the tradition of choosing this Clan Head even with her weak abilities.
"Well!!! Free! Talking to him is useless! He's usually a very smart kid, but strangely he's stupid!" Dennis scratched his head violently in frustration.
While they were all doing this, they saw the movements from Medusa who had been silent all along.

Back when Theodore first appeared, Medusa managed to cool her head and thought clearly, I almost lost control again. In addition to insulting my sisters, the poison also dulled my raging thoughts after hearing it. I have to be careful... My brothers want me to survive this life... I don't know if they're still alive but I have to confirm that later... For the time being. hold on...' Gritting her teeth, Medusa controlled the rest of the mana within her body to guide the strength her sister had left behind. He instinctively knew how to use and prepare it for the best time he could get.
'Next is the escape route ... Passing through the city streets was not as good as they had men everywhere in this place. The only place I could go was the sea. But that's Poseidon's domain... Well, I guess it's okay. Ever since my first beheading, I haven't met any of them in person or they've done anything to get in my way against Perseus... Anyway, I won't be able to escape Greece so they're sure I won 'don't go anywhere they can't reach ...' Recalling the situation again, he felt desperate, 'If only I could rest in peace ...'
Medusa calmed her breath and circulated her Mana. After a few minutes, Medusa rejoiced because all the competitors for the current generation were here. If he managed to escape, he would not have to worry about one of them attacking him in the dark.
As they began to argue, Medusa did not care what the girl said because she had already seen many others who tried to stop the tradition but failed. He puts his plan into action gathering attention back to her and that's what she wants.
With a deep breath, Medusa let out a shrill scream and all the minions and the last comer, Elexa, lost their consciousness. While the three staggered and lost balance fell to the floor while holding their heads. He only used the power left behind by those voices.
"What!?" In contrast to the two, Petter was still able to speak and stare at Medusa helplessly as he leaped and fled towards the sea, "Damn it!"
Petter shook his head to ease the pain inflicted by the shout and aimed his spear at the fleeing Medusa.
As Medusa jumped into the sea, Petter threw his spear. But due to the lingering effects of the scream, Petter misses his target and hits only Medusa's leg, not her chest as he wished.

The next day, Kisuke, Yoruichi, and little Claire leave early to enjoy their day.
They begin to walk around the neighborhood and Claire points to things while happily introducing the place, such as where she will get her candy or play with other kids.
Kisuke and Yoruichi listen attentively but they realize something strange when they see the other children on the playground staring at Claire strangely. Kisuke and Yoruichi look at each other and urge Claire to move to the next place. They decided to set it aside for now and ask Cleria later for further clarification. But Kisuke has decided to bring Claire back to Japan.
After touring the neighborhood, Kisuke puts Claire on his shoulders which Claire enjoys a lot and they move to a longer distance.
Kisuke and Yoruichi consult Cleria's notes to get around and most of the places listed in the newspaper are places with good food and snacks.
Normally, all of these snacks would make the little girl bloated even before she had time for lunch, but Kisuke, with the ingenious use of Reiatsu-Ki, was, manipulating the food within his body to instantly dissolve and be released through breathing and sweat, resulting in his endless appetite.
They had lunch at a restaurant with a beach view. Chefs were stunned by the amount they could eat. They ordered almost every item on the menu.
In the afternoon, they go sailing and one more round for Kisuke and Yoruichi's fishing competition and this time, Claire acts as a judge. There was no clear winner though as Claire only laughed happily at everything they caught.
Back at the beach, the sun had already set and they decided to walk along the coastline to enjoy the afternoon breeze.
The three of them reached a place where there was no one so they decided to go home since it was quite late. But just as they turned around, Kisuke and Yoruichi stopped their steps and looked at each other.
"What are you gonna do?" Yoruichi asked Kisuke.
"Hm... For the time being... Let him live, I guess..." Kisuke answered him and faced Claire who was staring at them confusedly, "Claire-chan, stay with Yoruichi-neechan for a while, okay?"
"Are you going somewhere?"
"This nii-chan will do some good deeds." Kisuke mischievously smiled at him before disappearing from his sight. He had gotten used to this scene since he had already done it in front of him a few times today, but his hand still grabbed Yoruichi's hand and held it tightly.
Yoruichi smiled and patted his head, "It's okay. He'll be right back."
"Hm." Claire sweetly nodded at Yoruichi that she could only pinch her cheeks, 'After my body matures in a few more years, I should also have a child...'
A minute had passed and Kisuke returned with an unconscious woman in his arms.
With a bright smile on his face, Kisuke said, "Let's go home~."
