Chapter 1115 A Visit from Seireitei
A few hours before sunrise, Kisuke returned to their house in Karakura Town. He intended to go straight to an unused room in the basement so as not to disturb anyone but Serafall in her nightgown came out while yawning, "Welcome back~"
"I'm sorry I woke you up." Kisuke changed his plans and stayed in the living room, "Coffee?"
"With three cubes of sugar, please~." Serafall sat down, not minding her appearance, "How was your trip?" Since she could accurately track Kisuke's whereabouts as the latter didn't really bother hiding his Magic signature, she knew he went somewhere far when his aura suddenly disappeared.
"Unexpectedly fruitful and it's not as I've imagined." Replied Kisuke while carefully brewing two cups of coffee.
"Do you mean Hell?"
"Yeah." Kisuke nodded and told her how and reached Hell and what transpired when he trespassed it.
Bringing the cups of coffee over to Serafall's side, Kisuke was able to finish his short report.
"Thank you." Serafall took a few sips of the coffee before continuing, "Please listen to me too." It was her turn to tell Kisuke what had taken place yesterday.

"I see... Aaroniero Arruruerie and Zommari Rureaux." Kisuke rubbed his chin, "Not just that, they are also capable of controlling the Chains of Hell to save themselves. It's already certain that they have a certain amount of authority over Hell so the next question is to what extent."
Their ability to command the 'Beasts of Hell' is not a big deal to Kisuke because strong individuals can always find ways to control the weaker ones so it doesn't really matter if they could control them through their authority or something else.
"Well, we should at least expect more of these 'Espadas' coming out of their graves. Since they are essentially Hollows with most of their humanity hollowed out, they'll be thriving in Hell." While muttering this, Kisuke remembered something from more than a decade ago and added, "Ah... Maybe Ulquiorra Cifer won't be around."
"Ulquiorra Cifer?"
"A nihilistic Hollow with great power. Instead of dying, he scattered into nothingness after pushing himself in a great battle."
Serafall didn't ask any further because she was not very interested, "By the way, it seems I stopped you when you were about to do something."
"Oh right." Kisuke then took out a pair of smartphones from his inventory, "I intended to modify this for Ophis and Lilith's use. It'll be inconvenient if we keep using Telepathy Magic to communicate remotely, not to mention, easily traceable and interceptable over long distances. I plan to modify the other girls and yours too."
"Do you mind if you work on mine right now?" Serafall took out her smartphone and passed it to Kisuke.
"Sure, it shouldn't take too much time, but I'll finish Ophis and Lilith's first so that they can have it before they leave for Soul Society."

As soon as the students left for their respective schools, Kisuke also left to do something else.
Serafall, on the other hand, stayed at home because she knew that she'd be contacted today. And while waiting, she reviewed the documents about the Gotei 13 from more than a decade ago that she received from Kisuke. Although a bit outdated, it's still very relevant since one can easily track who would succeed in the position of the late Captains.
It was after lunch that Serafall felt someone approach their house but she first waited for a doorbell ring.
The doorbell rang and Serafall also heard a woman's voice, "Excuse me."
Serafall slowly walked and opened the door to see a female Shinigami standing beyond the gate, a slim and youthful girl with long black hair pinned back, with flat bangs that hung to the right side of her face. She has slightly light blue eyes that have a deep tint of violet and wears glasses with a slightly oval shape to them.
"Yes~? How may I help you?"
The Shinigami straightened herself, "I'm Ise Nanao, Lieutenant of the 1st Division. I came here as Soul Society's correspondent. I would like to have a bit of your time if that's possible."
"Ah, Nanao-chan, is it?"
"N-Nanao-chan!?" Nanao was instantly taken aback.
But ignoring her reaction, Serafall snapped her fingers and the gate's lock unlatched itself before slowly opening, "Please come in. Let's talk inside."
Nanao calmed herself and entered through the gate. She thought that the gates opening themselves was neat but thought it was Human technology, "Thank you for having me."
Nanao didn't really know what to expect when she came here. She wanted to have more backup since the target of their invitation was at least a Captain level in strength, but her Captain strangely reassured her that she won't be in any danger. Aside from that, bringing a large force might just provoke the individual known as Sitri Serafall.
Serafall asked Nanao to sit as she prepared some tea, "I apologize for my late introduction. You probably already know my name but I'm Sitri Serafall. Nice to meet you and please call me Sera-chan, Nanao-chan~."
After hearing about it the second time, Nanao was calmer and received the tea she was offered, "Thank you... Serafall-san." However, she still couldn't call her by a pet name. Still, Serafall looked like she genuinely wanted to be friends in Nanao's eyes so she opted to call her by her first name.
"Hmm... I guess that's alright for now." Although not satisfied, Serafall accepted it, "I would like for us to get to know each other, but let's take care of the main business first."
Nanao gracefully drank her tea before saying, "Once again, thank you for letting me in. I'm Ise Nanao of 1st Division and I'm here in response to Captain Mayuri's petition to invite you in the Soul Society and it received approval from the Captain Commander."
"Oh my~ I was expecting that to take a few days to a week. To think it'll be approved this fast and easy."
'She knows the inner workings of Seireitei?' Doubt immediately sprouted inside Nanao's mind.
Seeing her reaction, Serafall grinned, "Not that deep. I just got hold of a bit of information about the Seireitei. My rough assumptions are based on that."
"...Information?" This was a very concerning statement for Nanao. Since she doesn't know how much information she has, she couldn't gauge the current situation.
Serafall took a sip of her tea before speaking, "I know you guys are allocating a substantial amount of manpower to investigate my origins, including those around me, so it's natural for me to reciprocate the favor, isn't it?"
Nanao became nervous and couldn't answer.
