Chapter 15: Chapter 5: The Captain-Commander Summons
"Mikami, how on earth did you do it?"
On the way to the dormitory, Yamada Senosuke ran up to Yu Mikami, a bit excited as he asked.
Yu Mikami pointed at Aizen and said, "He taught me."
Senosuke was momentarily taken aback and turned to look at Aizen.
Aizen wore a confused expression, looking as if he had no idea what was happening.
Senosuke cast a skeptical glance.
Suddenly, he reached out and grabbed Aizen's wrist.
Closing his eyes, he felt the intensity of Aizen's Reiatsu, and after opening his eyes, he shot a look of disdain at Yu Mikami.
"Mikami, stop creating confusion. Aizen's Reiatsu intensity, although high and comparable to that of the Kuchiki heir, is still leagues behind yours!"
Yu Mikami chuckled.
The foolish Senosuke had been deceived by Aizen's pretended demeanor.
Perhaps, in this World, only a wise and perceptive man like himself could see through Aizen's true self.
With this thought in mind, Yu Mikami sharply distinguished himself from who he had been before today.
Sōjun Kuchiki kept his hands in his sleeves, following the three of them.
He was also very curious about what had happened to Yu Mikami, but just as Yu Mikami wouldn't pry into his family matters, he wouldn't casually question Yu Mikami.
After thinking for a moment, he spoke up: "Yu, you need to be cautious in the days to come."
"Cautious about what?" Yu Mikami asked, looking at him in confusion.
Sōjun Kuchiki said seriously, "The current Soul Society is in turmoil, with various factions eager to expand their power and increase their influence."
"Someone like you, possessing great strength and boundless potential, is exactly the kind of target they like to pursue."
"The older generation won't consider you. Once you accept the olive branch they extend, you'll become a weapon in their hands."
"What kind of weapon you become and what fate awaits you doesn't matter to the nobles."
"If it comes to that, your once-bright future may be plunged into darkness."
"Moreover, once you choose to join a particular faction, other factions will certainly take steps to harm you secretly in order to prevent you from becoming a hindrance in the future."
"The conflicts among the nobles are filled with dirtiness…"
As he spoke the last line, Sōjun Kuchiki displayed a look of helplessness.
In fact, it was not just commoners like Yu Mikami; even he, the legitimate heir of one of the four great noble families, would also be caught up in this massive vortex.
He was unwilling to accept this reality but had no options available to him.
That was why he hoped his friends could live more peacefully, without experiencing the same things he did.
After contemplating, he seemed to have made a decision.
"Yu, if you trust me, you can choose to nominally join the Kuchiki Family."
"With the Kuchiki Family's name, the other families will naturally no longer trouble you."
"As for those who want to harm you in the shadows, they'll have to think twice about the Kuchiki Family's power."
"Don't worry; I will tell my father that you are only joining in name and won't make you do anything."
Seemingly afraid that Yu Mikami would misunderstand, he quickly clarified.
Looking at Sōjun Kuchiki, Yu Mikami felt a bit moved.
He reached out and patted Sōjun Kuchiki's shoulder.
"Teacher Sōjun, you really are a good person."
"I just want to protect the people around me as much as I can... It's not as noble as you say," Sōjun Kuchiki gently shook his head.
Yu Mikami pondered for a moment.
To be honest, Sōjun Kuchiki's suggestion was indeed very tempting.
As he mentioned, the current Soul Society was too chaotic; if he remained at his previous level, it might not be an issue.
However, thanks to Aizen, what happened today would surely spread among the noble families soon, and there would be no way for him to hide.
Rather than being harassed by the various noble families, it was better to join the Kuchiki Family, at least he would have acquaintances there.
But... if he joined, could he really be like Sōjun Kuchiki imagined, remaining a complete outsider and a mere spectator?
Not to mention whether Byakuya Kuchiki would accept him, he himself couldn't bring himself to take advantage without contributing.
Under Sōjun Kuchiki's gaze, he nodded and said, "I will think it over carefully."
Upon hearing this, Sōjun Kuchiki sighed.
From Yu Mikami's response, he knew he had politely declined.
However, since Yu Mikami was insistent, he couldn't press the matter any further.
He could only watch the situation develop and do his best to help as much as he could...
......
The dormitories of Shin'o Academy were shared by four people per room.
Yu Mikami, Aizen, and two other classmates live together in one room.
Yamada Senosuke lives next door.
As for Sōjun Kuchiki... being the super-rich heir, he naturally has a single occupancy room.
To this, Yu Mikami has expressed countless times feelings of envy, jealousy, and hatred.
After returning to the dormitory, Yu Mikami assured Yamada Senosuke that he would find time to practice with him, finally managing to brush off the guy.
Sitting on his bed, he closed his eyes and began to digest the skills he had synchronized from Aizen.
As a traverser with a special ability, the system's capabilities were indeed very reliable; all the skills synchronized from Aizen felt innate, etched into his DNA, and he could use them anytime he wanted.
However, simply mastering the techniques doesn't make one a strong person.
It's like playing a competitive game; a character you've trained from scratch has clarity on the usefulness of each skill, when to use them, and how to string combos together.
If someone has never engaged with the game, and just buys an impressive account, even if the skills are complete, they'd only be able to unleash a small portion of their potential, leading to a massive waste.
As a disciplined person, Yu Mikami naturally couldn't accept that.
Seeing Yu Mikami begin to cultivate as soon as he got back, Aizen felt a bit of pressure.
Without a second thought, he took off his shoes and socks and sat down on his bed to begin condensing his Reiatsu.
Before long, the two roommates returned to the dormitory.
As the two entered the room, they initially wanted to invite Yu Mikami and Aizen to grab a meal together. However, upon seeing the state of the two inside, they quickly kept their mouths shut.
They exchanged a glance, their expressions somewhat complicated.
When everyone else is playing around, there are always some people secretly cultivating.
This World is truly too difficult.
After spending about two hours, Yu Mikami finally absorbed most of the footwork techniques synchronized from Aizen.
To understand them more profoundly and to remember them solidly, just imagining wouldn't be enough; practical application was a must.
He would find an opportunity to spar with Teacher Sōjun… That guy, being a noble, should have some insights into footwork, right?
Glancing at the rolled-up scroll on the bed beside him, Yu Mikami decided not to call him after all.
After all, if Senosuke worked hard on his cultivation, he could relax and be a slacker himself...
With this pleasant mood, Yu Mikami left the dormitory, intending to head to the cafeteria for a meal.
However, as soon as he stepped outside, he saw his homeroom teacher, Muneyoshi.
When Muneyoshi spotted Yu Mikami, his eyes lit up, and he quickly hurried over.
"Mikami, come with me!"
"Wait a minute… Teacher Muneyoshi, do you even know where I'm going? I'm not just following you."
Yu Mikami took a cautious step back.
Was Muneyoshi trying to act as a go-between for some noble family?
Seemingly guessing his thoughts, Muneyoshi rolled his eyes.
"Kid, what do you take me for?!"
"Just come along already… Captain-Commander Yamamoto wants to see you!"
