Chapter 1119 Post-Combat Analysis
Kenpachi saw that Byakuya and Kyouraku were ready to intercept him so he scratched his head and gave up, "It's been a while since I had any good exercise and it was cut short."
While muttering this, Kenpachi started walking in another direction, losing his interest.
Ikkaku and Yumichika first looked at each other before running to follow their Captain.
Seeing him leave, Kyouraku sighed in relief, "Only old man Yama could actually control his temper." He then turned to Serafall before continuing, "I apologize for what just happened. You're supposed to be our guest, but this still happened. Whatever I could do to make up for it?"
"Captain..." Nanao muttered in worry.
Meanwhile, Byakuya is wondering why he's lowering himself this much to an outsider. If the nobles were to see him right now, there could be a move to remove him from his position, 'Fortunately, there's no one better that could replace him.'
Serafall also realized his sincerity and didn't plan to make him do anything. If she asks anything, it won't look good for her, "It's fine~ Let's just consider this as my lab test for the 12th Division."
"Lab test?" Kyouraku knew her deal with Mayuri but he wondered if that troublesome researcher would actually agree.
Serafall was able to guess what was on his mind and answered his confusion by turning to her left and saying, "I think that's enough data for you? If you're still going to ask me to go to your lab after what you started then I might accidentally freeze your place on my way out."
All of a sudden, a figure in a black cloak emerged from one of the destroyed walls, "So even after I modified this cloak, you can still find me. Fascinating."
Both Byakuya and Kyouraku narrowed their eyes at him, "Captain Kurotsuchi..."
Mayuri removed his cloak and said, "I know what you're thinking, but it's not my fault that Captain Zaraki went to seek her after I informed him of her arrival. I might have added a few more details, but as a researcher, those minor details are important."
Mayuri then saw everyone's expression souring and took a step back, "But as Sitri Serafall has said, I've gathered enough data so she can forget about going to my lab. In fact, I don't want her going near it."
"That settles it then." Serafall had enough work for today and she already achieved her objective so staying any further is just more risk without any reward for her. However, there's still one thing that's bothering her and it only became a worry after she played around with Kenpachi without much effort, "Even with that guy's monstrous intuition, he still couldn't detect me." Serafall muttered to herself.
"I'm also quite surprised." Mayuri chimed in while approaching, "I thought Zaraki's animalistic instincts might be able to track you but he was lost like the rest of us. Thanks to the new detector that I made, you also possess quite a sizable amount of Reiatsu, but I guess all of that is being covered by this strange energy of yours." Mayuri showed Serafall his terminal showing various graphs.
Serafall stared at it for a few moments while rubbing her chin, "It's great that you're making progress, but at this rate, those guys from Hell might catch you off guard so it isn't really realistic for me to wait for you to adapt."
She thought about it for a little bit more before deciding to help them out a bit, 'They are going to learn it sooner or later so it's better if they owe me for it.'
Byakuya, Kyouraku, Nanao, and Mayuri's guard all went up when all of a sudden, a Magic Circle appeared in front of Serafall.
Serafall ignored them and stuck her arm into the circle. She rummaged inside her inventory while muttering, "I think it's in this corner? Yep. The Japanese edition."
A few seconds later, Serafall took her arm back and her hand was already holding a thick book. She then passed it to Kyouraku.
Kyouraku absentmindedly received it and saw the title of the book, "Introduction to Magic and Magic Power?"
Mayuri's eyes shined with curiosity and peeked at the book too. However, right now, he's much more interested in its author, "Rossweisse and Riveria Ljos Alf? Am I reading that right?"
Serafall nodded at him, "Just because it's called Magic, it doesn't mean it's related to the system they use in the West. You'll probably have a hard time understanding what's in it due to the absence of the Magic Power in the air, but you should be able to learn a lot of things if you reference it while using the Arrancar that I caught."
Kyouraku passed the book to Mayuri and the latter immediately proceeded to browse through it, "I see... This looks like a load of nonsense, but if it's coming from you... Captain Commander, let me take care of this."
"Make a copy for each division first."
After getting his instructions, Mayuri immediately left.
Byakuya, on the other hand, offered his hand, "I'm the Captain of the 6th Division, Kuchiki Byakuya."
Serafall gladly received it, "Nice to meet you, Byakuya-chan~ I'm Sitri Serafall. You can call me Serafall~!"
Byakuya was taken aback but his expression immediately returned to neutral. While Serafall is acting cheerfully, Byakuya could actually tell that she was raised like a noble just from her movements, "Glad to be your acquaintance." He then let go of her hand and turned to Kyouraku, "I'm following Captain Kurotsuchi since I can't trust him."
Without waiting for confirmation, Byakuya left the group.
Seeing that, Kyouraku couldn't help but sigh, "I'd like to accompany you and talk more but I have to deal with the Central 46 first due to this noise so I'll be leaving you to Nanao-chan's care. I hope you don't mind that."
"I'm fine. I won't disturb you any further and it's about time for me to go home."
"I see. Then if there's a chance, I'd like us to discuss a few things."
Kyouraku soon bid his farewell and Nanao led Serafall back to the tower where they first arrived.
After changing to her former clothes, Serafall approached Nanao with a piece of paper that had the insignia of the Sitri House on it, "Take this, Nanao-chan."
Nanao received it and curiously observed it and asked, "This is?"
"A summoning contract. It's a temporary one, but if you're in danger, just think of me and that'll bring me to you."
