Death god, my Zanpakuto is a bit trendy

Volume 1: 116, hot spring

Ohmae Kagura Dessert Shop.

The economic situation of Seireitei has been very bad in the past year.

Because a large number of Shinigami were dispatched to fight, as well as frequent accidents in the world and Rukongai, many small shops that were barely able to survive were closed down.

Only with the financial resources of the Ohmaeda family can they maintain such a nearly empty business all day long.

Spacious and bright store.

Haruto was enjoying morning tea time with Ayaka, Yongone and the others - although he had eaten a meal following Lily's farewell banquet in the morning, it was considered a formal meal, and sweets that would automatically fall into another stomach would certainly not be affected.

By the way.

Yongyin's favorite food before was white porridge, because she had been afraid of the crazy height growth since she was a child; during this period, after Lily's "Western-style teaching" and unabashed envy of both heights and bigness, Yongyin became Yin began to face the truth again:

At her age (reiatsu), no matter how much she eats, she won't continue to grow taller.

so.

This time, Yongyin is addicted to desserts other than porridge and can't help himself... It's probably like this when things go to extremes.

"Where's Nanao?"

Haruto didn't eat anything.

He was absorbing spirit seeds all the time, and he had almost no idea about the feeling of fullness, and he didn't want to put anything in his mouth at all.

"Nanao is trying to catch up with Yuine."

Ayaka squirmed her bulging cheeks while drawing circles around her face with a tilted silver fork. Although the Eighth Division also had free afternoon tea time, most of the snacks provided by the team were Japanese-style and completely different from those here. the same.

If you always eat one type of food, no matter how good it is, you will gradually get tired of it.

"Didn't you tell her that you should balance work with rest?"

"I said it, but the little follower's brain..."

"You know~"

Caihua scolded with a smile.

The nickname she gave Nanao was indeed accurate: when she was at the Zheno Spiritual Arts Academy, Nanao was always by Haruto's side; after arriving at the 8th division, it became even more serious. Apart from practicing, Nanao almost spent the whole day hanging in front of Haruto. Behind Lisa Maru.

Everyone else thought Nanao was learning how to become the vice-captain, but Haruto knew that she was learning how to become a woman who could help Kyoraku Shunsui like Yakinamaru Lisa - the two sounds like Almost the same, but the actual meaning is completely different.

"All right."

Moreover, Nanao's training also has a goal.

It is difficult to compare other aspects, but it is easy to judge the strength by the spirit power level: Yongyin was a sixth-level spirit power when he was in Zhenyang Spiritual Arts Academy. During the period after entering the fourth team, due to the high-intensity reply In actual combat, he officially broke through to the fifth level a few days ago.

This is already a proper vice-captain level.

If Unohana's deputy was not a captain-level expert like Yamada Seinosuke, Yuine would already be qualified to apply for the deputy team.

Nanao, who was still at the same level as Yongone when she was in school, began to practice more and more arduously, striving to break through the upper limit of the sixth level as soon as possible.

"What about Qingyin?"

Haruto turned his head and asked Yuine.

"Jiligulu."

"!"

Yongyin had just stuffed the food into his mouth and almost choked on the cake after speaking incomprehensibly.

"Bah bang bang."

At this moment, he was blushing and patting his chest.

"...Yongyin, please slow down."

Haruto hurriedly handed over the tea and used some ice and snow ghost path to cool down - he would definitely have to ask the waiter to refill the pot later.

"ha!"

Yongyin finally put down the small cake.

"Qingyin is also practicing."

"Qingyin also wants to be the vice-captain?"

Although Qingyin is not the type who spends three days fishing and two days drying nets, it definitely has nothing to do with hard work.

"No."

Caihua took over the second half of the sentence first.

"Qingyin is catching up with my progress~"

"you?"

Qingyin's talent is better than Ayaka.

And when it comes to hard work, if Kiyone has nothing to do with hard work, then Ayaka is completely idle——

In the last half year of the Zhenyang Spiritual Arts Academy, they worked a little harder.

"Didn't you notice it?"

Seeing Haruto's reaction, Ayaka immediately said angrily and surprised.

"Sorry, so..."

These words must not be uttered.

But Ayaka's current spiritual pressure is indeed too weak in Haruto's opinion: the gaps between the captain and the vice-captain, the vice-captain and the chief officer are all extremely exaggerated. Although Ayaka has reached the seventh level of spiritual power without knowing it, It really doesn't make much difference to Haruto.

"It's too big. I'm still waiting for you to surprise me."

"Eh~"

Caihua muttered in dissatisfaction.

“You won’t be distracted at first sight.”

"..."

Girls' complaints must not be answered forcefully. Waiting patiently will resolve them naturally.

Talk about it.

Haruto is actually curious as to why Ayaka's progress is so fast - where is her upper limit? If she is really talented, judging from the current progress of spiritual pressure, she will be able to at least be a deputy in a hundred years. The captain comes out.

The only reason he could think of...

"Even without the power of 'distribution', it can still affect the people around you."

Ichigo Kurosaki will unconsciously use the awakening of the Fullbringing Technique to "activate" the people around him. Haruto may have the same effect during the process of absorbing the spirit... Or compared to Haas Ward is about the same.

"Is this the foundation of the power of the Spirit King?"

Not only that.

If the possibility of extending life becomes difficult, then where are the "active substances" containing powerful spiritual particles and vitality that left Haruto's body?

——Haruto has reason to suspect that this is the key to Ayaka's recent surge in spiritual pressure.

"Clang!"

Ayaka's words "I'm full" woke Haruto out of his brief thoughts.

"It's almost dinner time."

Next to her were spacious and bright floor-to-ceiling windows, Caihua glanced at the sunset that was gradually turning red.

"Let's go find the next one quickly, shall we?"

"..."

After all, food is just solid spirit. The more powerful the Shinigami, the faster it is digested and absorbed. This is why Shinigami generally do not gain weight. As for the Ohmaeda family... strong genes are only one aspect. , mainly because their food is so good.

"Then we have to search a little bit."

They had almost eaten at the stores they had eaten at when they were in school, and Seireitei's downturn had resulted in few new stores opening recently - anything opened within twenty years could be considered "new" in Seireitei.

"that......"

Yongyin rarely raised his hand to speak.

"I have a recommendation."

She is usually the one who passively accepts opinions, and rarely actively offers opinions.

“It’s an authentic London restaurant!”

"...The one where Lily works?"

"Yes!"

During this period of time in Seireitei, Lily also found something to do for herself, which was called experiencing the local customs and customs.

It’s not like he was using Team 8 for free.

"..."

Haruto has never been to this restaurant, even though Lily used a "very cute maid outfit" to tempt him to eat; after all, in Haruto's impression, there seems to be nothing more to London food than boiled potatoes and starry sky pie. What features does it have?

can only say......

Although Yongyin's recipes have changed a bit, he still has an inexplicable love for these unpalatable things.

"sure."

Haruto didn't want to go sincerely, but since it was Yongin's rare invitation, Haruto definitely couldn't object.

"But you won't be able to get enough to eat there?"

"..."

Haruto glanced at Ayaka's belly and said nothing.

"That--?"

Ayaka's objection instantly made Yongyin retreat.

"Let's go to the hot spring hotel!"

"ah?"

The Caihua family owns a hot spring hotel. Although the place is a bit weird, this proposal is even more difficult to understand.

"Anyway, the portions of dinner in the hotel are very small. If Yongyin wants to eat London food, we can just order takeout~"

Takeout is a new concept that Lily came up with for a London restaurant after working part-time... Haruto, who is experienced in the field, will not comment.

It has to be said that Lily's takeout idea was promoted very quickly, and the one who accepted it the fastest was Chojiro from the first team; the table in the British classroom once a month was soon filled with takeout specially ordered by Spade.

It is precisely because of the promotion of Vice Captain Quebu that the restaurant's sales have been rising in such a sluggish economic environment.

"There will be too many people queuing up at the store. When we meet the members of our team...will we be grateful if they give up their seats?"

The queue leader is not a problem, but Ayaka's second assumption is very sharp: if the three of them, the officers, queue up with ordinary team members, what will the latter think?

"...an evil feudal society."

at last.

After bidding farewell to Ohmae Kagura Dessert Shop—you can tell by the name who opened the branch—Haruto ordered a takeout from Hell Butterfly, and the three of them headed for the most famous hot spring hotel in Seireitei.

————

Late autumn.

Bathing in hot springs is a very enjoyable thing at this time of year.

But when Haruto and the other three arrived——

"Eh~"

Ayaka's loud voice was enough to prove her mood at the moment.

"The venue is reserved!?"

The female general in the hotel obviously recognized the identities of the three people, and her attitude in speaking was also quite polite:
