Playing With Other Supernaturals

Chapter 1201 New Members

Kisuke had to extend the log mansion because of the amount of people staying in it. And after the last one, Gin, received the special 'Gigai', everyone gathered once again.

"This is really weird... I wasn't expecting that we'd be able to use the Hell's Blessing... Or Magic Power as you call it." Gin commented while deploying a simple Magic Circle on his fingertip that generated a very small cyclone, "And we learned it way faster than the Gotei 13 members."

"That's a given. Your bodies are now suited to utilize it while the Shinigami's Spiritual bodies are always at risk of being injured even at the slightest use of this power." Kisuke replied while compiling and reviewing all the data he gathered throughout their transfer, 'The materials for the basic Homunculus are finalized. It's a lot easier and cheaper to acquire than I expected. I should probably start preparing a few thousand normal batches and a few of the special grades for special individuals.'

"So when will we meet the so-called teachers?" Furofushi curiously asked while playing around with a small rock in her hand by changing its shape every five seconds.

Even the most stoic Yamamoto couldn't help but play with fire that was not produced by his Zanpakuto with deep interest.

"I'm just waiting for them to contact me... Oh... Speak of the Devil." Kisuke's phone suddenly vibrated and as he pulled it out, he said that the other side was ready, "Let's go out for a bit."

Kisuke exited the house and the rest followed him silently. Between the house and the hollowed-out mountain, Kisuke stopped before waving his arm and conjured a complicated Magic Circle 20 feet wide, "Oh right. I also invited someone who could help me adjust your Zanpakuto."

As they already knew that he was not alone when he returned to this world, everyone didn't really think much of 'someone who'll adjust their Zanpakuto' since he or she is probably someone they don't know. They were just a bit skeptical if someone foreign could really help.

A few seconds later, 5 pairs of feet appeared within the Magic Circle first before they slowly materialized from the bottom up.

It took another few seconds before they completely materialized but after that few seconds, instead of greetings, there was only silence, more notably, from the Shinigami side with them staring at someone with their mouths open, "...Nimaiya." Yamamoto muttered in an astonished tone.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, they actually knew one of the people who arrived and it was the illustrious and original maker of the Zanpakuto, "Yo~ I heard from this violent guy's girlfriend that he needs some help... However, I was not really expecting to see the former members of the Gotei 13 like this. You joined his side too?"

No one could speak from the Shinigami side since they are still processing this new information. After all, it's hard to understand why someone who was attacked would suddenly take the side of their assailant. Not to mention, it wasn't not your ordinary assault.

Kisuke and the rest of those who arrived silently walked off, leaving them to their own devices. Since explaining himself was less effective than just letting them exchange information, he didn't bother, "I'm sorry to call you all suddenly like this."

Serafall, who's looking at the stare-off, turned to Kisuke with a big smile, "It's fine. After Flanna-chan released her Draconic aura more than a week ago, I figured that you already started something major so we were already prepared."

"It's also a good reason to break away from the Human world," Kunou added.

"Break away? Why?"

Claire sighed while explaining, "Various defense ministries are trying to get in contact with us and it's actually annoying now."

Kisuke rubbed his chin in contemplation. If it's just him, he could easily mess with them so that they won't think about taking advantage of him anymore, however, these girls are different and don't follow the same logic as he does, 'More importantly, I don't want them to turn out like me, not even remotely.'

"Onii-chan... Are we finally going home?" All of a sudden Tanis asked, which made everyone stop walking and stare at her, "No, no, no. I don't mean that we should. I'm just asking..." But when she felt Kisuke's hand on her head, she stopped speaking for a moment before saying, "...I miss everyone."

Claire and Kunou grabbed each of Tanis' arms and looked at her with a worried expression. Nevertheless, even they can't hide that they felt the same as Tanis.

'They've been away for too long, huh... Even though I did tell them that it might take a few years, it's still my fault and responsibility for bringing them with me.' With guilt settling in Kisuke's chest, a new resolve also sprouted, "Don't worry. I'll try to finish things within a few months. Please wait until then. In the meantime, I'll be asking everyone to teach them a bit about Magic and Ki."

Serafall gathered the girls in her arms and asked, "It's already certain that they'll be joining us?"

"As far as I'm concerned, yes."

"Then what's the current immediate goal?"

"Annihilation of the [Chained]."

In his laboratory, Kisuke was meeting Ouetsu alone, "So why did you do it? I thought for sure that you already turned rouge. Surprised is an understatement when your girl suddenly made contact with me and I'm still wondering how she did that."

"I planned to make large movements. I wanted the Zero Division to hesitate when they wanted to assist."

Ouetsu was exasperated at his response, "I understand... But did you really have an aim for the lynchpin? You almost gave everyone a heart attack. Nobody was expecting a sudden heavy attack that almost took out the most important single thing in the world."

Kisuke grinned at him and said, "I trusted that you guys would be able to protect it~."

"Fuck that trust. That strange Kidou after that strange chant even gave Ichibei a nervous fit."

"I can't do that easily, though?"

"If I knew you could, I wouldn't recklessly come here to meet you."

Ouetsu sighed and changed the topic, "I heard that you want me to adjust their Zanpakutos to match their current bodies. I appreciate your trust but adjustment is impossible. The only way is reforging them. But their Asauchis already have very strong Spirits so doing it without my girls is also borderline impossible."

"But it's doable."

"...Breaking them in the process, which is the most likely result, will be the least of our problems."

Without replying, Kisuke took out a stack of paper and placed it in front of Ouetsu.

Curious, Ouetsu took the stack of paper and scanned through it. But only a second later, he went back from the start and took off her sunglasses, "This... Are you serious? You're giving it to me just like that?"

"If you can improve the Soul Gears, then this is actually a small price."

Ouetsu became silent and appeared to be thinking about something. A few minutes later, he asked, "Can you also give me that body, most importantly, temporarily?"

"I already prepared one for you."

"Great. Now I just have to learn the fundamentals of this Magic thing."

"You don't have to study it much since my equipment here is enough to fill the gap."

"Great! Lead me to the forge that I'll be using! I'll have to test out a few things now!" As a craftsman, Ouetsu can't stop the allure of learning something new that would lead him to new horizons, "You already prepared that too, right!?"

"The third door on the right. All the manuals that you'll need to operate the machines and tools are on the table."

Without saying another word, Ouetsu briskly walked towards the door that Kisuke just pointed at. But before he closed the door behind him, he turned to Kisuke one last time, "This place could handle it even if I turn up the flames, right?"

"The Magic thing is enough to handle that. Even if you make a literal sun in there, everything aside from what's inside the room will be fine."

"That's some impressive shit! I like it!" Slamming the door, Ouetsu disappeared from Kisuke's sight.

'He'll come out in a few days... Right?' Kisuke thought to himself, a bit worried.
