Bleach: Studying medicine cannot save Soul Society

"Nanao, I'm sorry, I seem to have woken you up."

Senju Makoto put down the quilt in his hand and said with some embarrassment.

But after seeing that the person in front of him was Senju Makoto, the instinctive trust made Ise Nanao relax, patted his head, and said.

"Mr. Cheng? Why are you here? I am..."

When he said this, the image of himself and Shifengin Yoruichi drinking flashed in Ise Nanao's mind, but what happened next, Ise Nanao had no memory of at all for a while.

"I originally came here to discuss some official business with the captain of Sifengyuan. I was about to leave when I saw you seemed to be drunk and sleeping here..."

After a pause, Senju Makoto seemed to have thought of something, and said as if he was afraid that Ise Nanao might misunderstand.

"I have absolutely no other intention. It's just that there was heavy dew at night, and I was worried that Nanao would catch a cold if she slept like this all night, so I found a quilt to cover Nanao."

Listening to those concerned and slightly panicked words, a hint of touch flashed across Ise Nanao's originally rather intellectual and capable face...

For Ise Nanao, she was entrusted to the care of Kyoraku Shunsui at a very young age.

However, with Kyoraku Shunsui's character of drinking all day long and missing the joy of izakaya, how could he really take care of the details of Ise Nanao's life.

On the contrary, it was Ise Nanao who had been taking care of Kyoraku Shunsui in all aspects since he was a child, and after Lisa Yatomaru was forced to escape Seireitei, Ise Nanao hurriedly took over the position of deputy captain.

This also made Ise Nanao's character become more capable, helping to take care of Kyoraku Shunsui's public and private details.

During this long period of time, Kyoraku Shunsui has undoubtedly gradually gotten used to it. Even Ise Nanao has become accustomed to taking care of others in this way, and no one has ever cared about whether Ise Nanao is tired or tired.

until...

"Thanks."

Ise Nanao spoke to Senju Makoto unnaturally, her heart throbbing with the unfamiliar feeling of being cared for.

"You're welcome."

Senju Makoto smiled softly, then handed the two corners of the quilt that he had spread out to Ise Nanao, and said, "Although Nanao is already awake, I still cover it to avoid catching a cold."

After Ise Nanao subconsciously took over the quilt, she felt inexplicably disappointed and even regretted that she woke up at the wrong time.

Being tucked in by Chengjun himself, maybe... it will be better than imagined, right?

Ise Nanao thought this, and then habitually sat up on her knees, then skillfully folded the part of the quilt between her legs, and said a little embarrassedly.

"I'm sorry, Cheng-kun, I drank a little too much today. Please forgive me for my rudeness."

"fine……"

After a pause, Senju Makoto simply knelt down in front of Ise Nanao and said.

"It's just that Nanao in my memory never drank a drop of wine. Could it be... that it has something to do with what happened today?"

Hearing this, Ise Nanao suddenly remembered something and reached out to touch her waist...it was empty!

Suddenly, Ise Nanao's beautiful eyes widened, panic flashed past, and she was about to get up to look for him.

At this moment, Senju Makoto's voice sounded.

"Nanao, are you looking for this?"

Immediately, an edgeless sword with a ruler-shaped body and four diamond mirrors inlaid on both sides was handed to Ise Nanao.

Seeing this, Ise Nanao quickly took it with both hands and inspected it carefully, then he breathed a sigh of relief obviously.

Senju Makoto asked as if he was a little confused.

"Nanao, is this your Zanpakutō? But I remember that you clearly didn't have a Zanpakutō before."

"this……"

Hearing this, Ise Nanao was a little speechless, and she also paused while stroking the edgeless sword.

After a full moment, Ise Nanao slowly spoke.

"This is not my Zanpakutō. To be more precise, it is the only Zanpakutō that has been passed down from generation to generation in the Seireitei. The other one is named Yanluo Kagandori, and the name of this one is

'Excalibur·Eight Mirror Sword'."

Divine Sword·Eight Mirror Sword?

Senju Makoto's expression showed just the right amount of surprise, and then he seemed to be unable to help but praise. "It's amazing. I didn't expect that the Zanpakuto handed down in the Nanao family would be so powerful."

However, after hearing Senju Makoto's words, Ise Nanao couldn't help but gradually become harder while stroking the "Sword of the Divine Sword: Eight Mirrors Sword" until the joints of her phalanges turned obviously white, and she spoke.

"Makoto-kun, do you know? The mission of the Ise family is to protect this 'Sword of the Eight Mirrors', and the curse of the Ise family is also to protect this 'Sword of the Eight Mirrors'."

"curse?"

Senju Makoto asked as if he was a little confused.

"Yes, it's a curse..."

Ise Nanao bit her lower lip and said, "Unlike other nobles, the Ise family is an extremely special matrilineal family. Does Makoto know why?"

Senju Makoto stared at Ise Nanao, who was usually extremely intellectual and capable. At this moment, he was extremely emotional, as if the painful secret hidden deep in his heart had to be revealed bit by bit.

"Because... only female members can use the 'Sword of the Eight Mirrors'?" Senju Makoto asked guessing.

"No!"

Ise Nanao shook his head, lowering his head and seemed to be stroking the "Excalibur Eight Mirror Sword" with concentration before answering.

"Because...curse! The Ise family only produces female newborns, and every male who marries the Ise family will die young soon after getting married, so...the Ise family can only

Become a special matrilineal family.”

"In the past, in order to save me from the curse and misfortune caused by the divine sword that was guarded by the times, my mother sealed the 'Excalibur Eight Mirror Sword' in the flower of the Kyoto band leader when I was extremely young.

A pair of special double-sword Zanpakutō are formed in the Tian Kuang Bone."

"It's just that, with Captain Kyōband's knot, Posleep was broken through. Captain Kyōband's spiritual power was no longer enough to maintain the seal on the 'Excalibur Eight Mirror Sword', so he had no choice but to re-seal the 'Excalibur Eight Mirror Sword'.

The Mirror Sword is returned to my hands, and I will personally fulfill my mission as a member of the Ise family."

Time... seems to have stopped in the room at this moment!

Ise Nanao also felt that her heart seemed to have stopped beating, and as the person in front of her who dared not look directly became quiet, cracks slowly appeared one after another until it completely shattered... and fell into the abyss.

'Sure enough...this is the result...'

Ise Nanao's face turned pale as she pressed the "Sword of the Eight Mirrors" across her thighs with both hands.

That unspoken confession, that intention that would bring harm to the other party... is that over now, right?

Next... you will definitely be disgusted by Makoto-kun and stay away, right?
