Chapter 178: Is Rin the only normal person there?
(Yamamoto's pov)
How many years has it been since I decided to teach someone? There wasn't anyone since Shunsui and Juushirou. These two boys truly were geniuses, and here I found another one. He is very young for a soul, but he already can use Shikai but isn't solely dependent on it.
But the thing that made me take him as my student was his last technique. It wasn't just two fast swings that looked like they were made at the same time. They were made at the same time, and he said it took him one year to create this technique.
We'll see how it goes, but I have high hopes. I'll need to fix his short temper, though. I don't have high hopes since Shunsui didn't change in all these years.
*Sigh*
(Ryoto's pov)
I got myself a teacher, and it's the best teacher I could ask for. Not only that, I can use incomplete Tsubame Gaeshi. Today was a very great day, but when I exited the dojo it was already late, so I went straight to the boys' dorm.
Surprisingly Urahara wasn't in the room either. Is he building a secret base somewhere? I remember him having this kind of hobby, but he probably is studying or inventing.
Having nothing to do, I went to sleep.
---
The next day when I woke up, Urahara still wasn't in the room. Did he pull an all-nighter?
Well, I'll see him in class.
As I was near the entrance to the main building, I saw Rin waiting for me.
Ryoto: "Sup Rin."
I greeted her normally, but I was excited to share the news with her.
Ryoto: "Rin, do you remember that 'stupid' technique?"
Rin: "Yes... What about it?"
Ryoto: "Yesterday, I became one step closer to completing it."
I was thrilled because of that, and it was showing.
Rin: "What? I don't believe you!"
Ryoto: "Believe me or not, it happened, and I can show it to you."
Rin: "Sure, show me, but right now, we should hurry so we won't be late."
She doesn't believe me, but it only makes it better when she witnesses the power of a swallow killer.
We went to the classroom, and I noticed that Urahara still wasn't there, so I decided to ask Yoruichi about it.
Ryoto: "Hey Yoruichi, what happened to Urahara? I haven't seen him since yesterday, and he didn't even return to the room for a night."
Yoruichi: "Don't worry, don't worry. He does that sometimes. When he gets interested in something, he forgets about everything else. If you're not careful, he may even starve to death."
Sounds serious, but who am I to judge?
As we were discussing about Urahara, he entered the classroom with big circles under his eyes. It looks like he didn't sleep and was clearly tired.
While yawning, he greeted us.
Kisuke: "Good morning..."
Ryoto: "Found something interesting?"
He grinned at this question as if he was waiting for it.
Kisuke: "Yep~ Your yesterday's demonstration gave me a fantastic idea."
Rin: "Which is?"
Rin seemed to be suspicious of Urahara, and I don't deny that he looks sketchy but compared to what he'll end up looking right now is his most honest look.
Urahara: "Why talk when I can show it!"
He excitedly took out a small machine and gave it to Rin.
Urahara: "I advise you to keep it in your hand as far away from the center of your body as possible and push the small button~."
Rin, however, didn't follow his instructions.
Rin: "Why are you talking like it's dangerous?"
Urahara: "It's a prototype, so of course, it could have some unwanted effects, but I assure you that your life isn't in any danger."
Rin: "So why won't YOU showcase this invention of yours?"
I got closer to Urahara and showed him a piece of paper with a message written on it.
'Does this device have any correlation with what I did yesterday?' Was written on the paper, and Urahara nodded.
Before I could say anything, the small machine started working even when it wasn't turned on. Rin seeing it quickly, tried to throw it away, but before it left her hand, it was able to destroy her sleeve.
Yep, Urahara truly is a genius, but the question is, did he create it out of curiosity, perverted fantasies, or did he see useful uses in this ability? Not that it's important, but I'm slightly curious.
Rin wasn't as curious as me and hit him with the scabbard of her Zanpakuto on the head. She basically bonked him. Utsu would be proud.
(E/D: Utsu right now: Rin! Oh! How you have grown up! I am so proud of you!*starts crying like an anime dad*)
Urahara: "Ow ow ow, Kujo-san. Why did you hit me."
He lamented as he massaged his hurt head.
Rin: "What do you mean by why did I hit you!? You tried to get me naked by using this perverted invention!!!"
We got the attention of the entire class once again, but no one in our group minded it as we were busy with our stuff.
Ryoto: "Rin, don't you see the genius of this invention!"
Rin: "You don't get any voice in it. You destroy your own clothes for fun!"
Ryoto: "I do that, but it doesn't make my opinion any less important."
Rin ignored me.
Rin: "Shihoin-San, please say something."
Rin knew that Yoruichi was kind of a leader figure in their group and was hoping for her to reprimand Urahara, but...
Yoruichi: "Kisuke, you are a genius!"
Yoruichi loves teasing and pranking others, so she would enjoy using these machines on others.
Ryoto: "Told you so, Rin."
Yoruichi: "By the way, call me Yoruichi."
Rin: "Huh?"
Yoruichi: "You call me Shihoin-San, but I would prefer calling me just by my name."
Yoruichi: "I'll call you Rin as well. Deal?"
Rin: "Then Yoruichi-San."
Ryoto: "By the way, you can call me Ryoto too."
I never cared for honorifics anyway.
And so my school life continues.
