Chapter 62: Chapter 62 - The Future and Meeting the Soul King!
Chapter 62 - The Future and Meeting the Soul King!
Shin'ō Academy, Class 1-1.
"Alright, that's all for today's class. You are dismissed."
On the podium, Aizen spoke with a gentle smile.
Though Aizen's clothes were a bit disheveled, and his glasses were missing, no one noticed anything unusual.
After Aizen left, the students in the classroom immediately started a lively discussion about the recent Zanpakutō class.
"As expected of Captain Aizen, his lectures are the best."
"So there are so many nuances to turning an Asauchi into a Zanpakutō."
"I've decided, I will be the first freshman to have a Zanpakutō."
"Get real, do you think you can be faster than Gilgamesh?"
"Then I'll be the second freshman to have a Zanpakutō!"
"Did you forget about Renji and Rukia?"
Renji and Rukia were also discussing the recent class, trying to awaken their own Zanpakutōs using their spiritual pressure.
As for Gilgamesh, he did not participate. He had already evolved his Asauchi into his Zanpakutō.
So now, Gilgamesh was just sitting quietly, petting Yoruichi Shihōin, and silently looking at his status panel.
Name: Gilgamesh
Character Template: Gilgamesh (Youth)
Class: Archer
Spiritual Pressure: 50,000
Spiritual Power: 700
King's Points: 72,900
The King's Points were steadily increasing, with 10,000 coming from Tier Harribel and the rest from the stable growth of the Kingdom of Uruk.
However, due to the limitations of territory and population, the growth of King's Points was slow.
Gilgamesh was aware of this and did not rush to allocate points or exchange anything.
After closing his status panel, Gilgamesh scanned the classroom.
He hadn't forgotten his purpose for coming to the Shin'ō Academy.
However, since most of the students in Class 1-1 were from noble families, pampered since childhood, although talented, they were not the kind of individuals he was looking for.
After taking a final look, Gilgamesh planned to check out other classes.
But just as he was about to get up, the Omniscient Star suddenly shone.
The future was revealed.
Gilgamesh was accustomed to the Omniscient Star passively showing him the future.
Since he was in a safe place, Gilgamesh curiously wanted to see whose future was revealed this time.
Viewing the future from an omniscient perspective, Gilgamesh was stunned.
This time, the future revealed was his own.
In the future, he was alone, riding Vimana, arriving at the Soul King Palace.
Ichibē had been waiting for a long time, and under his guidance, Gilgamesh reached the inner sanctum of the Soul King Palace.
The inner sanctum was the main hall of the Soul King Palace, floating deep within the approach to the palace, where the Soul King was sealed.
Seeing this, Gilgamesh knew that his future self was going to meet the Soul King.
Moreover, judging from Ichibē's reaction, he, or more precisely, the Soul King was aware of this event.
Otherwise, to meet the Soul King, Gilgamesh would have to fight the Zero Division, and Ichibē would not be so polite.
While Gilgamesh was immersed in the revealed future, a surprised voice suddenly echoed in the classroom: "Is that... Captain Kuchiki from Squad 6!?"
This statement was like igniting a barrel of gunpowder, instantly exploding the entire classroom into a frenzy.
"Why is Captain Kuchiki here?"
"Obviously, he's here for Gilgamesh."
"Oh my, even the Kuchiki Clan, one of the Four Great Noble Houses, is here to invite Gilgamesh?"
"What's the big deal? Didn't Naosuke Tsunayashiro come before?"
"That's different! Naosuke Tsunayashiro is just a descendant of a branch family of the Tsunayashiro Clan, but Captain Kuchiki is the head of the Kuchiki Clan."
"Do you think Gilgamesh will accept this time?"
"He probably will. The Kuchiki Clan's offer is too good to refuse."
Amidst the heated discussions and gazes, Byakuya approached Gilgamesh's location with an unchanged expression.
Seeing this, everyone understood what was happening.
Renji and Rukia naturally assumed Byakuya was here for Gilgamesh and didn't think much of it, just silently watching Byakuya approach.
Perhaps because they had been influenced by Gilgamesh, even though Byakuya exuded a strong noble aura and the presence of a superior, it did not affect Renji and Rukia.
Soon, Byakuya stood in front of them.
Under everyone's gaze, he looked at Rukia.
Rukia was stunned the moment she met Byakuya's gaze.
For the first time, Byakuya carefully observed Rukia up close, thinking to himself, 'She resembles Hisana so much, except for her demeanor, everything else is just like her.'
At the same time, Byakuya only saw astonishment in Rukia's eyes, not the restraint or fear his presence usually caused.
This made Byakuya look at Rukia with a bit more respect.
Byakuya was almost certain Rukia was the sister Hisana had been searching for, and he spoke coldly, "I remember your name is Rukia, right?"
"I have something to discuss with you. Can you come with me?"
This statement caused an uproar in the classroom.
No one expected that Byakuya was not here for Gilgamesh but for Rukia.
Even Rukia herself hadn't expected it.
But she didn't agree immediately, instinctively looking at Gilgamesh.
However, at this moment, Gilgamesh had his eyes closed as if he were resting, showing no reaction.
Not wanting to disturb Gilgamesh, Rukia said to Byakuya, "Alright."
Hearing this, Byakuya turned and left without hesitation, and Rukia followed him.
Seeing this, Renji looked at the 'resting' Gilgamesh, bit his lip, and quietly followed them.
He wanted to know why Byakuya was looking for Rukia.
Others in the class also wanted to know and began discussing it.
Just then, Gilgamesh's thoughts returned from the revealed future to reality.
Before he could digest the massive information contained in the future, he heard the surrounding students' discussions.
Frowning slightly, Gilgamesh knew why Byakuya was looking for Rukia.
However, due to his influence, Rukia might not agree to join the Kuchiki Clan this time.
As for whether she would forgive and acknowledge Hisana, that decision was up to Rukia.
If Byakuya or his people tried to pressure her...
Thinking of this, a domineering gleam flashed in Gilgamesh's eyes, and he thought to himself, 'No one bullies my people!'
