Chapter 427: A Date Trip to the Human World?
Chapter 427: A Date Trip to the Human World?
As expected, Captain Asahagi readily approved of Yecheng's plan to take Koetsu to the Human World for a break, as he had anticipated.
There were primarily three reasons for Captain Asahagi's willingness to grant this request. Firstly, Yecheng's usual idleness in the 13th Division, where he did little more than waste food, was one factor.
Secondly, Captain Asahagi was aware that Lucia was embarking on her first mission to the Human World. Given that Lucia was from the Rukia family, any mishap there could lead to significant complications.
Allowing Yecheng to secretly protect Lucia in the Human World seemed like a reasonable precaution.
The third reason became evident when Captain Asahagi learned that Yecheng intended to bring Koetsu to the Human World. His vice-captain, Shiba Kaede, and the fourth seat, Yoru Tenshi, earnestly pleaded with him to approve Yecheng's leave.
Captain Asahagi could discern the intentions behind Kaede and Yoru Tenshi's request; it was clear that their older siblings were trying to play matchmaker for their younger sister and brother.
While Yoru Tenshi's request could be overlooked, Kaede had diligently served for many years, and this was the first time she had asked for a favor. Captain Asahagi found it difficult to refuse.
Upon learning that she could go on a date trip to the Human World with Yecheng, Koetsu was equally thrilled. She even snuck into Shiba Dou's room the night before, ensuring he wouldn't be able to get out of bed the next day.
When they reached the massive gateway, Yecheng provided the guards with various written proofs while reminding the excited Koetsu beside him, "Koetsu, once we're in the Human World, you must follow my instructions and not act on your own, understand? The Human World is different from the Soul Society; everything there is fragile. So, your dangerous explosives are off-limits there!"
Given that this was Koetsu's first trip to the Human World, Yecheng felt compelled to offer these reminders.
He was all too familiar with Koetsu's fiery temperament. If she encountered him, it might be manageable, but if others angered her, she might unleash a blast powerful enough to detonate a Spirit Orb Core.
After all, Kozatsu Machi was the key to the King Key, and if Koetsu's artistic explosion were to level the place, the consequences would be dire.
"Rest assured, once we reach the Human World, I'll stay by Night City's side."
Hearing Night City's words, Koetsu nodded repeatedly, indicating her understanding. In fact, her brother Haiyan and sister-in-law Shiba Dou had already reminded her of this several times yesterday.
As Koetsu's family, they naturally knew her personality well. Fortunately, the person accompanying her was Night City, the only one who could keep Koetsu in check, so they felt somewhat relieved.
A traditional wooden sliding door appeared in the sky above Kozatsu Machi, and soon, two Soul Tickets slowly flew out from the door, followed by a man and a woman who also emerged from the doorway.
"So this is the Human World? It's quite different from what I imagined."
Looking at the skyscrapers before her, Koetsu's eyes were filled with curiosity.
Compared to the Heian-era architecture of Soul Street in Soul Society, the skyscrapers in the Human World were indeed novel to Koetsu.
"It's a bit inconvenient to move around in the Human World in our spirit form, so let's follow the usual rules and get some Artificial Bodies first."
Night City had an Artificial Body, but the last time he returned to Soul Society with Luanyu, he had left it at Purification Shop.
"This is indeed a rare sight. I didn't expect you to come to the Human World again. Are you here on a mission this time as well?"
When they sensed Night City's spiritual pressure in Kozatsu Machi, Kurona Kiyotsugu and Yecheng Yi had been waiting in the shop for a long time.
However, when they saw Koetsu by Night City's side, both parties were clearly taken aback!
"Koetsu, what are you doing in the Human World?
"Yee, I thought you had gone missing. I didn't expect you to be hiding in the Human World all this time!"
As everyone knows, Yecheng's Shigekakushuu family and Koetsu's Shiba family are both among the Five Great Nobles of Soul Society.
Not only do Koetsu and Yee know each other, but they are also good friends.
When Yee went missing in Soul Society, Koetsu even felt a bit down for a period, as Yee was the only noble lady in Soul Society with whom she got along well, and they shared similar carefree personalities.
"Oh my, I didn't expect this at all. I can't believe the young lady of the Shiba family would personally come to the Human World.
As far as I know, the young lady of the Shiba family isn't a Shinigami of Gotei 13, right? Does this mean that the task you've come to Kozatsu Machi for is somewhat special?"
Kurona Kiyotsugu used his folding fan to cover half of his face, revealing eyes that seemed to scrutinize Night City and Koetsu, as if trying to discern something from their expressions.
"There's no need for probing. Our visit to the Human World is merely out of personal interest, and we don't have any special mission."
Hearing Night City's words, Kurona Kiyotsugu feigned surprise and laughed loudly, "I see, it's just a personal interest trip?
I thought something troublesome had happened in Soul Society again, requiring the strongest third seat to be dispatched.
But if even the young lady of the Shiba family can be easily brought to the Human World, I guess it's no wonder you're as handsome as me, Night City?"
Ever since the previous incident, Kurona Kiyotsugu and Yecheng Yi have been paying close attention to Night City. His sudden appearance in the Human World was not a pleasant matter for them.
"Oh, come on, no matter how capable I am, I can't compare to the awesomeness of Shopkeeper Kurona, who even managed to bring the heir of the Shigekakushuu family to the Human World and... turned him into meat."
