Laid-back Highschooler In Bleach (With Soul Cube)

Ch150- Call Me Teacher



Kai leaned back, resting against the tree trunk with a relaxed posture, embodying the essence of the world around him. "Welcome to the Mirror Dimension," he began, a hint of pride evident in his voice. "It may look and feel like any other Shinigami's inner world, but trust me, it's not. This universe operates by its own rules, and here, I am its creator. Its god, if you will."

Kukaku tried to keep her composure, her eyes darting around to absorb every detail. The sheer vastness of the landscape, the ethereal beauty, it was almost overwhelming.

Kai then added with a sly grin, “You asked how I can have Oken, right? Because I just can. I can also create a fifth path. So, do you want to learn it?”

Kukaku’s eyes flickered with a mix of uncertainty and intrigue, her mind racing to process the magnitude of what he was offering. “Learn...a fifth path?” she echoed, her voice barely above a whisper as she tried to grasp the concept.

He nodded, his eyes gleaming with mischief and a hint of excitement. “Yes, a fifth path. It’s unlike anything you’ve ever experienced. It transcends the boundaries of the established paths, blending and bending them to create something...unique.”

Kukaku felt a flutter of excitement in her chest, her previous skepticism slowly giving way to curiosity. “And you think I can learn this? That it’s suited to me?” she asked, her voice steadier now, though still laced with doubt.

Kai chuckled, his laughter light and infectious. “I don’t think, Kukaku. I know. You’ve always been different, stuck between worlds, and I believe this is the path that will finally give you a place to belong.”

She was silent for a moment, her mind whirling with thoughts and possibilities. The idea of belonging, of finding her place in a world that had always seemed slightly out of reach, was tantalizing.

Kai observed her, his expression turning softer, more serious. “This path, it’s not just about power or fitting into a category. It’s about understanding yourself, embracing every facet of your being. And I truly believe that you’re ready for it.”

His words struck a chord in her, igniting a spark of determination she hadn’t realized was there. She met his gaze, her eyes resolute. “Okay, I’m in. Teach me.”

Kai then smirked, a playful glint in his eyes as he instructed, “Start by calling me ‘Teacher,’ but add a touch of sultriness to it.”

Kukaku, taken aback by Kai’s sudden shift from serious to cheeky, couldn’t help but let a smile play on her lips. She took a moment, pursed her lips slightly, and with a mix of amusement and determination in her voice, she called out, “Teacher.”

Kai’s eyes seemed to transform, taking on a heart shape as he chuckled, clearly delighted. “Perfect,” he praised, his voice laced with amusement before it smoothed out into seriousness again. “Now, let’s get down to business. The path I’m about to teach you, Seishin Ryū, is like nothing you’ve ever encountered before.”

Kukaku listened intently, her previous amusement fading into concentration as she absorbed his words. She could feel the energy of the place, the vast expanse around them, and she knew, deep down, that she was about to embark on a journey unlike any other.

“Seishin Ryū is all about tapping directly into your innate spiritual energy,” Kai continued, his voice steady and clear. “It bypasses the formalities, the rules. It’s raw, it’s wild, and in the hands of someone like you, Kukaku, it’s incredibly powerful.”

Kukaku felt a spark of something within her, a flicker of excitement and anticipation. She was ready, she realized, ready to embrace this new path and all the possibilities it brought with it.

Kai went on, explaining the various abilities and techniques of Seishin Ryū. “First, we have Reiryoku Enhancement. This will bolster your physical abilities and your Kidō, channeling your raw spiritual energy like never before.”

Kukaku nodded, her mind racing as she tried to envision the power he was describing. She could feel the energy within her, restless and eager, ready to be unleashed.

“Next, Seishin Bōei, or Spirit Defense,” Kai said, his eyes locking onto Kukaku’s, ensuring she was following along. “This technique will allow you to create a protective barrier or aura around yourself or others, using nothing but your raw spiritual energy.”

Kukaku could almost feel the energy swirling around her, ready to respond to her call. She was starting to understand, starting to see the potential of this new path.

“And then there’s Seishin Hadō, or Spirit Way of Destruction. With your Kidō skills, Kukaku, you’ll be able to create powerful blasts without needing to utter a single incantation.”

Kukaku’s eyes widened at that, the possibilities unfolding in her mind. She had always been limited by the need for incantations, the precision and control they required. But this, this was something else entirely.

“Seishin Hakuda will enhance your physical combat abilities,” Kai continued, his voice filled with a confidence that was infectious. “You’ll be able to channel your spiritual energy to increase the strength of your physical attacks, making you a force to be reckoned with.”

Kukaku felt a surge of power within her, a readiness to embrace this new path and all its potential.

“And with my guidance, you’ll master Spirit Flow, manipulate your Reiryoku, and even resonate with the spiritual energy of your surroundings.” Kai’s voice was steady, filled with a certainty that left no room for doubt.

Kukaku felt a fire within her, a determination to master this path and make it her own. She was ready, she realized, ready to embrace the fifth path and all the power it promised.

“And all of this,” Kai finished, his voice softening, “will lead you to a place where you truly belong, Kukaku. A place where your unique strengths and abilities are not just accepted, but embraced and celebrated.”

Kukaku met his gaze, her eyes filled with a resolute determination. “I’m ready,” she said, her voice steady and strong. “Teach me, Teacher.”

Kai’s eyes twinkled with mischief once more, but there was a warmth there too, a genuine pride. “That’s what I like to hear,” he said, his voice filled with a playful authority. “Let’s get started, then.”
