Chapter 774 Cats’ Evolution

Chapter 774 Cats’ Evolution

After more than a day of sleep, Kisuke finally woke up feeling refreshed for the first time in a long while, 'Maybe I should do this more often...', he thought while stretching and scanning the whole building with his senses.

Kisuke was incredibly curious about what they talked about when he was sleeping but he wouldn't initiate a question for that. If they want to talk about it with him, that would be great. But if they want to keep it a secret, that's fine too. In any case, he already trusts them enough that they would know what to do regardless of whether he's in or out of the picture.

The next thing he checked and it already became a habit, was his cane with a hidden blade in it, 'Still no response, huh... She taking too long. Way longer than I expected. I wonder just what she's going through right now? I want to check, but I might only interrupt her and if she needed help, she would be sending a non-stop SOS signal directly to my head.'

After spending a few minutes of carefully probing his connection to Benihime, Kisuke moved on to the next thing on his agenda, 'Now that Irina and Akeno-san are safe, I should give Yoruichi the signal to start Aika's Zanpakuto subjugation.'

With Aika's current skill set, she shouldn't be qualified to call the name of her Bankai yet, just like Ichigo tried to call his for the first time. But unlike Ichigo, who needed the power up to go against his enemies, Aika needed her Bankai too for a very different reason. Due to the nature of her Zanpakuto, Aika needed an outlet of her power that kept increasing due to her baby Dragons growing. Since her Reiatsu control couldn't keep up with this growth rate, she could only release it periodically as a temporary measure.

A Bankai in this case would be a great boon for her as she won't just have a limited outlet for release, it'd also force her to exert and learn more to control her Reiatsu.

Her situation, however, made Kisuke appreciate Ichigo's genius more as he had little to no problems like these. Aika, on the other hand, was just a normal person that was trying her best to adapt to her 'genius' circumstances.

Up to this point, Kisuke was still wondering if pulling a normal girl like her into their world, even if her circumstances pushed her here, was a good idea.

'In any case, she doesn't seem to be aware how dangerous her situation is, so this has to be done as soon as possible.'

Departing from his room, he first went to the living room where everyone had gathered except for Line, "Good morning~!"

Everyone just finished their dinner and was relaxing, "It's already evening.", replied Yoruichi after placing her tea down.

Claire, meanwhile, excitedly ran towards him and gave him a big hug, "Kisuke-niichan!"

Kisuke carefully caught her and picked her up, "What's up?"

"Mom and aunt were asking if you're okay..." Earlier was one of the scheduled communications to the other side and Yoruichi didn't hide anything from them, telling them what had transpired. Of course, Sakura and Cleria were very pissed at how reckless they were, but more than that, they were very worried about those involved.

'Looks like I'm going to hear a few hours of a sermon when I get home.', thought Kisuke as he reassured Claire while patting her head.

The next one to approach him was Hestia, and she did so while fidgeting. While wondering what's wrong, Hestia said first, "I apologize for how we acted earlier. I realized that we might have made the situation worse, not just for Irina-kun and Akeno-kun, but also for you and Yoruichi..."

Immediately after, Artemis also came, "I also apologize. I wasn't thinking straight at that time."

After giving them a quick peek, Kisuke slowly shook his head, "Please don't apologize. You were worried and panicked with what happened to Irina and Akeno-san. There's nothing that you did that deserved an apology from you. In fact, I should apologize for not explaining things beforehand. If I had briefed the two of you, you could have prepared yourselves for what may come, yet I chose to stay silent. I'm sorry."

Seeing Kisuke bowing his head, Hestia and Artemis panicked as they knew he never had any ill intentions. Contrary to that, he may have chosen to stay silent because he didn't want them to worry and hoped that the worse wouldn't come.

But after a few moments, the awkward atmosphere was forcefully destroyed by Sona asking, "Shouldn't you return to Kuroka and Koneko-chan's side soon? Their training might not have been as dangerous as everyone else's but we're worried about them being just by themselves."

Gently placing Claire down, Kisuke nodded at her, "That's right. I have to go soon. Aika."

Suddenly hearing her name being called, Aika perked her head up, "Is it my turn now?"

"Yes. Yoruichi will walk you through it."

"Got it. I'm also already prepared for it."

Kisuke then turned to Medusa and said, "Medusa, you should prepare too."

Medusa nodded with a smile and replied, "'We' are prepared."

Kisuke and Yoruichi's eyes widened in a pleasant surprise, "I see... That's good to hear. I look forward to meeting them.", answered Kisuke before finalizing his goodbyes.

It didn't take long for him to leave the Dungeon and teleport back to where Kuroka and Koneko were. Kisuke looked around and saw them outside of the barrier but just as he was about to call them and ask how they were doing, he stopped his steps when he saw a drastic change to one of them.

Koneko, with six cat tails behind her, was already almost as big as Kuroka... Physically. And it doesn't seem to be a temporary change.
