Chapter 20: Advance
Swish!
A faint fluctuation of spiritual power appeared, and Hibanya, who had used a momentary step, appeared three meters away from Shiba Haiyan.
"Three fulcrums... Hibanya-kun is it? I didn't expect Qinghe to have a genius rival like you. β
"It's another little monster... Qinghe directly solves it. But this guy is a captain as long as he guides."
Shiba Haiyan, whose black pupils lit up with a glitter, used the spiritual power of Lingluo to observe the Hippanyaβwhat appeared in his eyes was a large number of red ribbons of aura, and it exuded an icy chill.
Just the judgment at this stage... has already made Shiba Haiyan sure that the Ribanya in front of him already has a strength comparable to that of Xi Guan: and there is also a skillful instantaneous step!
This thing that is generally only used by the captain, the vice-captain, and the officer whose strength is close to the vice-captain is very easy for him to use.
And although the Zennosuke Chetani sent out by him is eight... The best thing to do is to escape, so that's why you can walk instantly.
"Brother Haiyan... Xiaobai and I are not rivals in love. I don't have a habit of taking people's favors. He, and Momoko, are my best friends. β
Qinghe, who rubbed his temples with both hands, had to explain out loud under the repeated prompts of Zhibo Haiyan's "rival in love".
As long as it's about Hinamori Momo, Hibanya will lose his previous calm... After getting Qinghe's explanation, he retracted his "killing" gaze.
"Xiaobai, you're not a grim reaper, you can't feel it... Kiyowa should feel it, right? β
"Call me Hibanya-kun..."For the two people who call themselves nicknames one by one, Hibanya expressed helplessness.
"Well... Since you are Qinghe's best friend, and Qinghe is my little brother, then it's right for me to call you Xiaobai. Don't care about such details..."
"Xiaobai, has grandma been a little weaker recently?"
glanced at Zhibo Haiyan with disdain and began to woo people again, and Qinghe opened his mouth to ask Ribangu.
"Hmm... Grandma has had more time to sleep in the past two days. The frowning Hibanya had a bad premonition.
"Remember when I said that with great power comes great responsibility?"
In the face of Kiyowa's inquiry, Hibanya nodded slightly.
Then Qinghe got up from the corridor and ran to Hibanya's side and whispered: "Xiaobai, I want to apologize to you first... Back-to-back events triggered an early awakening of the spiritual power in your body. β
"Spiritual awakening?"
"A soul like yours with a high level of spiritual power usually eats a lot more than others, and you get hungry very quickly."
Although he was curious about what Qinghe said to his little friend, Zhibo Haiyan still suppressed it.
Hibanya with his mouth open... found that he couldn't refute the other party's words: before Qinghe came, he had a meal on top of the food that his grandmother had to eat for a day.
"Looks like you haven't been lazy lately... Teaching assistant's stuff, you're doing a good job. So it's not a strange thing that the spiritual power in your body is starting to awaken. β
A very satisfied expression appeared on Shiba Haiyan's face... It seems that Qinghe is not just talking, but working hard in a down-to-earth manner.
"Your spiritual powers... It may have something to do with ice, but maybe when you get a shallow hit, you'll turn it into an ice and snow slasher. β
"I don't want to be the Grim Reaper... I want to take care of my grandmother. Hibanya, who frowned frequently, felt that things had completely fallen out of his plan.
"With a strong spiritual pressure like yours, if you don't learn to control it, your strength may kill your grandmother." The expression on Shiba Haiyan's face was serious.
"Xiaoqing..."
For Shiba Haiyan's words, Hibanya was at a loss... So he subconsciously asked Qinghe beside him.
"Brother Haiyan's words are right, your spiritual power will awaken sooner or later. And when the time comes, it will be a little more ferocious than it is now. Grandma lives with you, and now it's just an extra blanket for the summer, and in the future..."
"So... Do I have to be the Grim Reaper? β
"Only by becoming a Grim Reaper can you better control your power. Looks like you're going to have to think of a way to control your stress as quickly as possible. β
"Good thing it's settled... There's more time to spare."
Shiba Haiyan, who was contacted by Captain Ukitake, rushed to see Kiyowa as soon as possible... He was afraid that if it was too long, this little guy would have some unnecessary complaints.
As a result, I saw it today... Where does the other party complain, and some just see their own joy.
I didn't know that my learning path was almost blocked... Now Qinghe has no dissatisfaction with Shiba Haiyan's words: if there is no arrival of Hinamori Momo at that time, he is afraid that he will have starved to death.
"Brother Haiyan, what method are you talking about?"
Looking at the entangled Ribanya, Qinghe asked directly for him.
"Of course, it's to come back to Zhibo's house with me for a while."
"No way!" Without thinking about it, Hibanya rejected his proposal.
"Bastard... Can you just bear to look at your grandma and endure the cold you bring all day long?! β
Faced with the sudden anger of Shiba Haiyan, Hibanya subconsciously distanced himself with instantaneous steps.
But the next moment Zhibo Haiyan appeared, but he came up behind and grabbed his clothes... Then the menacing face came to his eyes.
"Grandma is too old... I..."
"Xiaobai, I can take care of grandma for you... Believe me. β
Kiyowa's face was full of apologies... Just because he continued to absorb the spiritual power of Rifan Valley, the other party's spiritual power woke up in advance.
"That's Grandma..."
"Xiaobai... Grandma has already heard it, let's go to Xiaoqing's eldest brother's house for a while. I know, you're also like going to the Grim Reaper Academy with Peach... I can be with her grandmother. β
Grandma Hibanya, who opened the paper door and appeared, her wrinkled face was covered with love... Her grandson was so entangled for her, she couldn't bear to look at it.
"Grandma!"
Hibanya, who appeared in front of her grandmother right away, threw herself into her arms...
Hipanya's grandmother gently stroked his hair and whispered something in Hibanya's ear...
"Well, I see... Let Xiaoqing take care of grandma. If it's up to him, I can trust it. β
Ribanya, who turned his head, had a solemn look in his eyes and a request - he would not complain that Qinghe had awakened his spiritual power in advance, because this day would come sooner or later.
"Xiaobai, grandma has long been my relative... I'm still a little unaccustomed to sweet natto. β
Qinghe, who scratched his head, was a little embarrassed... The first time he ate it, he thought it was a boiled soybean that had been rotten, and even if there was sugar, he almost vomited it.
"You can rest assured... I will definitely teach Hibanya-kun how to control his spiritual pressure in the shortest possible time. β
Shiba Haiyan bowed seriously... No, it's just that Qinghe is his little brother.
Little brother's best friend is in trouble... He, the big brother, will definitely lend a helping hand.
"Hahaha... Okay, let's have dinner together and leave. Xiaobai, Xiaoqing... You go and call for Little Peach to come over. β
"Okay grandma..."Hibangu frowned slightly, and then stretched out - grandma must have other things to explain to this "big brother Haiyan" in front of her.
"..."Shiba Kaiyan opened his mouth... I didn't dare to say the strange and strange historical legacy of my family: nine o'clock access control!!
Now he only hopes that he will be able to go home in time after dinner.
