When the prosperity dissipated, the shrine that was not too big became empty...

Under the silver moonlight, Kiyowa and the empty crane sat on the corridor of the temple.

"Xiao Ji... Not bad. ”

After handing the note to Kurazuru, she walked to the hanging net in front of her and hung it on top.

"It's been a long time since I've been so relaxed."

The returning empty crane sat next to Qinghe and looked up at the crescent moon in the sky.

"We've been playing like this every year since."

"Okay."

Then the two of them looked at the crescent moon in the sky and fell into peace.

When dark clouds covered the sky and darkness spread all over the land, the empty crane finally broke the "air" before parting: "Qinghe, do you understand the enemy you are about to face?" ”

Although Kuzuru didn't think that Seiwa would make such a low-level mistake, he couldn't help but ask.

"Then it's better to be a repeater..."

Qinghe was not impatient with this: "Then let me tell you what is introduced in the book..."

"Void is characterized by a hollow in their chest, which represents the emptiness in their hearts, and the white mask on their face that makes up this monster."

"There are two kinds of souls in this world, one is called "whole", which is an ordinary spirit. The other is called "Void", they will attack humans and devour their souls... That's how I died. ”

Qinghe, who paused, was quickly embraced by the empty crane, and there was sadness in her eyes, but she still didn't say a word.

"And the reason for the formation of these voids is because of the reluctance to give up the nostalgia for the present world, or other hindrance factors, they cannot enter the corpse soul realm, but linger in the place that attracts them. Some of them, after years of grief and torment, or some other reason, have degenerated into "nothingness". ”

After quickly reining in the purity of his emotions, he threw a reassuring look at Konghe, and continued to speak: "Once an ordinary soul becomes a void, it will complete the reorganization of the soul... So they never get back to the way they were. ”

"And the work of the Grim Reaper... It is to bury those "wholes" that have not yet become "void" into the corpse soul realm with soul burial, and kill the void with a slashing knife... Wash away the sins they committed after death and send them to the corpse soul realm to be reincarnated. ”

"And what about their usual behavior?"

Sora Tsuru rubbed Kiyowa's head... This pattern of question-and-answer has rarely been carried out since the title of "teacher" was deliberately forgotten.

"Mr. Kuzuru... The Void usually hide in the chaotic "Void Circle" between the present world and the Corpse Soul Realm, where the Grim Reaper cannot detect them. ”

"The Grim Reaper can only receive information when he comes to this world to do evil, so that he can pursue them... I've seen Asuke's "Herald Machine", and that kind of thing is really convenient. ”

Syllable... Qinghe, who was hit on the head, understood why this was - the title of "teacher" was quite taboo for the empty crane.

"I'm going to say, listen... Void cannot be generalized, they also have hierarchies. If one void keeps devouring other voids, then it is possible to evolve into a "great void". ”

"And the Great Void is divided into three classes: 'Killian', 'Achukas', and 'Vastod'."

Speaking of which, a worried look appeared on the face of the empty crane... But any big void is not something that a captain-level or lower Grim Reaper can deal with, just a great void at the level of Killian, it needs a vice-captain to deal with: and some vice-captains may not be able to fight.

"Kiyowa, tell me what 'Killian' looks like."

Qinghe, who nodded, didn't dare to call the empty crane "teacher": "Most of them have black bodies, white long-nosed masks, and low abilities. Killian is huge, slow-moving, and has an IQ similar to that of a beast. ”

"It is formed by the aggregation of a particularly strong void devouring hundreds of void spiritual power, and it needs to evolve by constantly devouring spirits, and can use the extremely destructive 'Void Flash'."

"The next two grades... The book only says that there are above the captain level, and only high-level Reapers, who can inflict damage on them. ”

This is the answer to all the answers that Kiyowa saw about the void from the Shiba family book... The Corpse Soul Realm had previously made an expedition against the Void Circle, but no one had come back alive.

This also made the Corpse Soul Realm wonder about this unknown world... So to this day, there has not been another Void Circle Expeditionary Force - after all, the Grim Reaper's duty is to guard the balance between the Corpse Soul Realm and the living souls in order to maintain the operation of the world.

Void is ferocious and powerful... But they are transformed from humans, and even if they are devoured by their own kind, the weight of their souls does not change: as long as these monsters are constantly purified, the balance of the world can be maintained proudly.

Of course, there are still some things that Qinghe didn't say explicitly... For example, he only knows the name "Broken Face", and the skill he has "Ringing"!

"You look closely... Now I'll add a few other things. ”

After praising Qinghe, Kong He spoke seriously: "In the past, the adults in the clan said that one person, the seventh generation of Jian Ba... Kenpachi Yashiki, hundreds of years ago, he killed a "Wastod" who was still calling Lord Bailegang before he died. ”

"Kenpachi... The strongest swordsman in the past, the captain of the eleventh team? ”

"That's right, the high-level of the Corpse Soul Realm guesses that the void called 'Bailegang' is the general in the void circle... That's why there was the first battle to send the gods of death to crusade against the Void Circle... Unfortunately, no one came back alive. ”

Since there are very few records of these two kinds of fiction, doesn't it mean that... Wouldn't they easily appear in the present world, or in the Corpse Soul Realm? Don't worry too much..."

As he spoke, Qinghe himself had no confidence...."Killian" Shiba Haiyan still has the possibility of defeating, and the latter two levels of the Great Void... I'm afraid that if we meet, we will be killed in seconds.

"But that doesn't mean they won't show up... If you really see it, Qinghe! Run away from all odds. ”

The empty crane who gave the escape advice had a serious expression on his face.

"Brother Haiyan won't run away... So I'm not going to run away. ”

If the latter two really appeared, it would be impossible for Shiba Haiyan to sit idly by... He will only send a distress signal, and then fight the other party with the attitude of calmly going to death: because this is the glory and duty of death!

"Well... I forgot about my big brother. ”

The empty crane with a reddish face found that his mentality had been messed up... She actually forgot that Qinghe would go this time, and she would be taken care of by her eldest brother.

"If only Brother Haiyan knew... I'm afraid I'll cry bitterly for a while. ”

"If you dare to say..."

I didn't say anything later, but Kuzuru's consciousness was already very clear...

Qinghe, who shrank his head, said weakly: "Big sister, little brother understands." ”

"Poof... You guy, really. Don't you care about my former friends? If it's really dangerous, go there and find them... If it's Yoyi and Urahara, I'll definitely help. ”

"Why can't you just tell me, Kuragu?"

Qinghe really can't figure out what can't be said in this.

"If you say it, it means talking about the past of the two people... And their past happens to be something unspeakable. Qinghe, it's better for you to ask the two of you in person for this answer. ”

The insistence of the empty crane made Qinghe nod: "Okay, I see... So where do they live? Tell me, or I'm going to find them. ”

Although Kiyowa knows what the "Urahara store" is, the ghost knows if there is such a place at this point in time - you know, it's almost 70 years before the plot begins.

"I know, it's for you."

As she spoke, Kuzuru took out the white headband she used to wear from her chest... In her eyes, there was also some reluctance.

"It's something that the night gave me, when it's dangerous... You burn it with your spiritual power, and then she'll come to help. ”
