Volume 2 Chapter 74 – Another Discussion Part 1

Kisuke and Yoruichi appeared inside the room where the mock elevator is in. They saw that Koneko and Aika are still waiting for them.

“Senpai.” “Kisuke-kun.” Koneko and Aika approached the two of them, but hesitation could be felt from their movements.

‘They calmed down and started thinking a lot of things huh,’ Kisuke and Yoruichi simultaneously thought.

“Let’s go back to the house for now. I’ll talk there.” Kisuke ignored their apparent hesitation and fear and walks towards the exit along with Yoruichi.

Koneko and Aika looked at each other and hurriedly followed them. It’s already late afternoon outside and once they reached the Urahara household, Kisuke urges the two of them to sit down on the couch while Yoruichi went straight to the kitchen to prepare some beverages and some snacks.

Kisuke also sat down on the couch but didn’t speak and just stared at the two of them who are looking at the ground, though they would sneak some peeks from time to time.

Yoruichi arrives with cups of tea and snacks that’s enough for them, but she doubts that the two girls would have a mood to sip some freshly made tea. She sat down beside Kisuke and stayed quiet.

Kisuke took a sip of his cup of tea and let out a large sigh, “Where should I start?”

Aika and Koneko looked up, waiting for him to speak.

“Are you scared of my form earlier?” Kisuke started with a question. They looked at each other and with some hesitation, nodded.

“Well that’s normal and you should be. Because in the future, if you continue your training under us, you’d probably experience something similar.” Kisuke narrowed his eyes and told them in a very serious tone.

“Can’t you do something so we wouldn’t experience that?” Aika meekly raised her voice.

“We can probably do something so you won’t have to experience that.”

“Then…” Both of them looked up with hope in their eyes. When they remembered how Kisuke rampaged earlier, they didn’t want to experience it themselves. They thought if something goes wrong, they wouldn’t be able to come out of that madness.

“But it’ll take some time for you to get stronger. Months, years or even decades if we take it slow.”

Both of them stayed silent after hearing this, especially Koneko as she wants to get stronger as soon as possible so that she could take on her big sister.

As for Aika, she’s contemplating if she wants to get stronger fast, ‘Is it worth the risk?’ She kept questioning herself but couldn’t find the right answer.

“Let me explain first why we have to experience that before you make your decisions.

” I train in all facets of a certain power system. Meaning, I train in both the positive and negative sides of that system. The advantage is, I’ll have access to both sides’ power making me stronger than those who trained in only one side. The disadvantage is, it creates a conflict within me and if I can’t contain or restrain it, I’ll fall into madness like what you saw earlier and there’s a chance that I wouldn’t wake up forever and would just try to destroy everything around me. That’s what happens if I failed to control my power or upset the balance between two sides.”

Kisuke saw them make difficult faces and laughed a bit.

“What so funny? Is this still a joke for you?” Aika pouted and complained and Koneko agreed with her by nodding and glaring at Kisuke.

“Nah, I’m just appreciating your funny faces.”

“Why are you still nonchalant, senpai? You almost killed Yoruichi back there.” Koneko continued glaring at Kisuke with more intensity.

“Yoruichi is certainly in danger back then, but she could survive that.” Kisuke’s smile didn’t disappear at her words.

Truthfully, Yoruichi has multiple ways to escape but all of them would disregard Aika and Koneko’s safety which she was about to do if Kisuke didn’t wake up in time. She could have escaped using her ring and leave the two alone with the Hollowfied Kisuke which would spell their doom if they couldn’t activate their pendants in time. She could also have punctured the Cero and its damage would spread out and not a concentrated one. She would only get hurt but the two spectators would have died.

“Right! These two idiots didn’t believe that I would be just fine! You only made it harder for me! In our lessons, I will properly ingrain in your thick heads how important prompt decisions are! Especially you! Koneko! What you did earlier is just a futile effort!” Yoruichi stood up and suddenly reprimanded the two.

“But-” “No buts!” Koneko wanted to say something but was interrupted by Yoruichi.

“You’re still too weak to worry about me!”

“… I’m sorry.” Seeing the fuming expression on Yoruichi’s face, Koneko’s head dropped down and apologized.

“That’s enough, Yoruichi. She’s still a kid and you know that she’s strangely affectionate of this she deemed comrades. We can’t push our militaristic view on her and especially on Aika, who is just a normal person until yesterday.” Kisuke spoke up and patted Koneko to console her.

“Huuu… You’re right. I’m sorry. I think of her as my disciple so a forgot for a moment that she isn’t from the same organization as me. I just remembered how I would scold Sui Feng when she did something wrong.” Yoruichi let out a big breath to calm down and also apologized to Koneko.

“Please don’t apologize. It’s really my fault and I also dragged Aika-senpai to danger by not listening to you. Even though I guess that you have a way to survive, I just couldn’t leave after seeing you and Kisuke-senpai like that.”

Seeing that she knows her fault and admitted her mistakes, Yoruichi smiled slightly and shoved Kisuke’s hand away to pat her herself, “It’s fine. I know your personality and knew how you would act, but I’m pushing my ideals in you too much. But we have to fix that attitude in the future.” Yoruichi gently consoles Koneko but her last sentence has a trace of strictness to it.

Koneko has a complicated expression when she heard the last thing she said. Yoruichi guessed what she’s thinking and continued speaking, “I’m not telling you to disregard your comrades if you ever encounter a situation like that again, I’m going to teach you how to plan and decide properly without your emotions intervening with your logic. That way, you’ll also have a larger chance to turn your situation.”

Koneko finally understood her and nodded. A trace determination appeared in her eyes and she faced Kisuke, “Senpai, I want to get stronger faster.” ‘If I’m strong enough, I would have a lesser chance of dealing with a situation like that.’ Koneko thought as she declares her decision to Kisuke.

“Going back to the main topic, finally?” Kisuke already finished his cup of tea before they even finished talking.

“It seems that Koneko wouldn’t change her mind anymore. How about you, Aika-chan” Kisuke stared at Koneko for a while and assumed as such, so he turned his head towards Aika, who’s still in deep contemplation.

“Let me hear what you’re about to say first.” She said.

“Sure.”
