Reborn in bleach as a hollow with a system

24 – Babe

The time of Masaki's attack was rapidly approaching and thankfully he had gotten to the point where he should be able to crush Grand Fisher quite easily.

Just over a month had passed since the kidnapping. Reina had done a great job training outside of her office hours. She wasn't that powerful, but she was powerful enough to where she should be able to defeat a weak hollow if she had to and run away from the average ones. After some experimenting she also found out that she wasn't only able to use fire with her sceptre, but other elements as well. It seems she had become something like a sorceress.

Meanwhile it was best to not say anything about him trying out his energy blade. He definitely didn't accidentally destroy part of a forest and mountain when he got too excited and pumped a lot of spirit power into the move.

[Reward: Skill - Transcribe]

'Sweet, I'll even get a reward!' he thought to himself.

Hisashi told Reina he was going to have to leave to take care of some important business in Karakura Town for a few months, but that he should be back within 2-3 months at the most. He also made sure to remind her to run if she ran into anything supernatural while he was gone. If things got really bad she could also come find him in Karakura Town.

Hisashi made sure to make himself invisible before spreading his wings and taking off into the sky. He didn't want any Shinigami to notice him while flying. Although his walking speed was faster there was no way to move in a straight direction in urban areas making flying quicker. Well there was a way to move in a straight line in urban areas, but it involved a lot of property destruction and death. Naruki City and Karakura Town were actually very close to each other so it only took him about half an hour of flying to get there.

Upon landing he used his [Illusory Aura] to make him look like a slightly older version of his human self to fool any spiritually aware beings and practice his ability. He ended up deciding to make himself look 23 like he had been at the end of his first life though with the looks of his second life. He gives himself some well-fitted black jeans and a deep purple buttoned shirt.

He was walking around exploring Karakura Town at a slower pace trying to locate the Kurosaki Clinic. Though he knew what the place looked like when he came across a spectacled college beauty with long wavy violet hair and purple eyes was walking towards him on the street.

She was wearing a loose cream coloured hoodie and a black dress that came to just above her knees under it, but the hoodie did little to hide her impressive figure. She was also wearing some matching black kitten heel shoes.

Something seemed to have upset her as she was walking quite uncomfortably. She seemed to be mumbling something a lot to herself he thinks he could make out an "It's nothing."

"Hmm... she has quite a nice figure. Kind of a babe really. People having natural violet, pink or blue hair is still a bit of an adjustment even after all these years. I'm not complaining though." he says to himself.

Suddenly she started flushing red before glaring at him.

"Errr... you can't hear me right?" he says hoping the timing of her reaction was just a coincidence.

By now she had stopped walking a little away from him and nodded hesitantly.

"In that case I'm... err... just a figment of your imagination." he tries to make up something on the spot. He doesn't tend to get seen by normal people besides his sister.

She obviously wasn't buying it and he sighed.

"I'm sorry, I didn't think anyone could hear or see me. That was still rude of me though." he bows to her along with his apology.

She was still a little flushed and responded timidly "It's..it's ok."

"Well miss. Saito Hisashi, a pleasure to meet you." he says.

"H-Haruko" she gives her first name too embarrassed to say more.

"Well in that case you can call me Hisashi." he says and winks at her playfully. By now she seems to have moved from embarrassed and angry to embarrassed and shy.

"Well. Since we ran each other. I was wondering if you could help me a little." he says.

"Uhm... okay." she nods timidly.

"I'm new to town and looking for the Kurosaki Clinic, but can't find it for the life of me. Could you help me find it?" he smiles with some embarrassment. This would be super easy if he could just check the address book, but illusions aren't physical and he still doesn't have hands.

She has a kind smile. "Of course I can." she says and walks up beside him.

She tried to grab his arm while they walked, but he quickly and awkwardly moved aside since his appearance was purely visual and if she touched him...well it would be bad.

"Sorry I... have a social phobia. I'm working on it though." he said.

"But you seem to be talking with me just fine." she responded narrowing her eyes in suspicion.

"Hahaha... well it used to be so bad I couldn't even talk to people. Now talking is fine though." the irony that his excuse wasn't even completely a lie, since he couldn't talk to anyone until his sister, wasn't lost on him.

Her eyes become a little less suspicious.

"Is that so?" she asks.

"Un... if it weren't how could I avoid a cute girl such as yourself?" he teased her hoping that by teasing and complimenting her she might forget about his strange behaviour.

The slowly receding blush came back in full force and she did completely forget about it while she walked him took him to the clinic while sharing some small talk. It was also helpful to find out a little more about the area and Haruko herself.

'Honestly, it's an absolute pleasure to be able to talk to another person. I love my sister, but although it's better than when I when I was able to talk to nobody one person isn't enough.' he thinks to himself.
