Chapter 1158 Sitting Down Together part 2
As soon as Soifon regained consciousness and felt the unfamiliar softness of a bed that was quite different from the one she usually used, she hurriedly opened her eyes and sat up, throwing the blanket off of her, 'Where am I!?'
She didn't have to think that hard before all her memories of the previous day returned to her and she immediately grabbed the blanket back to cover her blushing face, "Why did I do something like that!!? To his face, no less!!!"
She now realized that she got incredibly drunk and started fangirling about Yoruichi, 'He didn't record that, did he?' She didn't even want to imagine how she got to her bed when she was drinking with Kisuke in the living room.
As soon as she asked herself that, however, she also answered it for herself, 'No. He obviously did! No way he'll let go of that chance to blackmail me!'
Soifon grimaced in regret and turned multiple times on her bed. But after getting tired of doing that, she received enlightenment, "I can't give him anymore. Ignore him and don't display further weakness. That guy thrives on others misfortune so I should be careful on how I should react."
Soifon calmed herself down and got out of her bed. Before she exited her room, she tidied it up a bit and stretched her limbs, 'Amazing... I have mostly recovered even without extensive care. Does it have something to do with this place or that medicine he gave me?'
She then turned to the direction where two familiar Reiatsu were emanating, 'Now the question is how to leave this place. I doubt he'll allow me to go, will he?'

It was already early in the morning and it was just before Ophis and Lilith's classes so they were having breakfast with Kisuke. Unlike Claire, Kunou, and Tanis, they didn't have the freedom to easily skip class and join their impromptu vacation. After all, the Spiritual Arts Academy was still technically a military school and it's already a privilege for them to leave the Academy grounds when classes were over.
When they felt Soifon arrive at the door to the dining room, both of them looked at Kisuke with concerned expressions.
Guessing their fears of being separated from the friends they'd made in their school life experience, Kisuke chuckled and reassured, "It's fine. I won't allow her to leave this place if I can't be sure that she won't mess with the two of you."
Without her knocking, Soifon opened the door while glaring at Kisuke, "Those are some disturbing words, Urahara Kisuke."
Kisuke didn't even turn his head to her and instead wiped the food off Lilith's cheek, "I won't deny that, but it's also the truth."
Ophis and Lilith finally got the relief they wanted and the former declared, "We shall go."
Kisuke nodded at them with a gentle smile and said, "Enjoy your time."
Ophis and Lilith gave Soifon a quick glance before a burst of black Reiatsu covered both of them and they disappeared like a bubble popping.
Kisuke started cleaning up the plates and utensils from the table while asking, "We've got eggs and toast. Are you fine with them?"
Soifon wanted to inconvenience Kisuke as much as possible so she said while walking to the dining table, "Japanese-style breakfast."
Kisuke didn't miss a beat and snapped his fingers. On the clean table, a Magic Circle appeared and soon it was filled with food that you'll typically find in a high-class ryokan like steaming white rice, miso soup, grilled fish, sashimi, tempura, pickles, and such.
The corner of Soifon's lips uncontrollably twitched at this unbelievable sight and asked, "...Just how are you doing this?" Since she couldn't eat dinner yesterday, her stomach was quite empty and if not for Kisuke's presence she would've already dived into this very appetizing breakfast.
Kisuke also gave himself a portion so he sat down and invited her to sit down, "The place Yoruichi and I ended up with had some fascinating things and this is one of them."
Soifon first analyzed the situation and the information she had right now, before sighing and sitting down to join him, "I guess you don't need those girls to spy for you."
If she were to guess it correctly, the girls who just disappeared directly arrived in Seireitei, 'And it looks like it's not their first time doing it. However, even before they enrolled, there were no reports of the Seireiheki being breached nor any unusual reports from the Visual Department.'
Soifon's eyes then landed on Kisuke, 'If he can do something similar, then his trinkets must have already littered the entire Seireitei and there's no need for other people to do it for him.'
As soon as she arrived at that train of thought, she scowled at Kisuke and said, "You disgusting spying piece of shit."
But Kisuke only chuckled and continued enjoying his breakfast, "Don't worry. I didn't put any in women's private quarters. The Shinigami Women's Association is the last enemy I want to make."
Soifon continued to eye Kisuke with suspicion but she also started eating her food, "Then what are Ophis and Lilith's goals in joining the Academy? Controlling a portion of the Gotei 13?"
"That sounds interesting, but also incredibly troublesome so I'd like to pass." Kisuke's demeanor suddenly changed which caught Soifon off guard. While staring at her, he added, "And while I do take advantage of them from time to time, I promised to never control them and use them like that. I just want them to have some semblance of a normal life."
Soifon was stunned for a moment before clearing her throat, "Ehem... I see. I understand."
It was Kisuke's turn to be surprised by that reaction, "You actually believe me?"
"Yoruichi-sama always bragged about you keeping your promises unless something unbelievable turns up. I can always trust her words."
'But you didn't trust her at all when she recommended me to become the Captain of the 12th Division. Not to mention, you stopped listening to her when she betrayed the Seireitei." Kisuke thought to himself.
"By the way, are you not going to ask me how to leave this place?" Kisuke changed the topic.
Soifon continued enjoying her breakfast and said, "I've thought about it, but I decided to stay here. So if you decide to kick me out, don't bother. I won't leave."
Kisuke's jaw hung open.
"Think about it. Where is the best place to learn about this 'Magic' that the people of Hell seem to utilize? And what do you think will happen when I don't return? The Seireitei will move to pressure you and your group for my return. And if Kurotsuchi Mayuri realized that I'm not anywhere in the Human World, it'll be interesting enough for him to try and sniff this place out."
Kisuke smiled wryly and drank his tea, "And all of this for?"
"Obviously, to annoy you."
"Fair enough. Then after we finish our breakfast, follow me and I'll teach you about this 'Magic'."
"What? Aren't you being awfully obedient?"
Kisuke flashed a nasty grin at her and said, "Let's see how much of your pride you can swallow when this lowly and annoying one starts tutoring the esteemed Commander-in-Chief of the Onmitsukidou and Captain of the 2nd Division."
Soifon could already imagine Kisuke's image looking down on her while trying to teach something 'obvious' and couldn't help but return a threatening smile and accidentally snap her chopsticks, "You bastard. I'll make sure that you serve me well. Kukuku..."
"Oh please do look forward to it. It's about time you realize how Yoruichi and I are on a different level than you. Kukuku..."
Flanna who briefly returned to have some breakfast was peeking through the window, "They sure do get along well. Though I'd really appreciate it if they don't display their blood lust over food."
