Chapter 126: Shinigami And Ordinary Souls
For ordinary souls living in Rukongai, their time is same like when they were in the present world. They take birth (appear in Rukongai) one day and then live there days, slowly grow old and die. But for shinigami living in Seireitei, the passage of time actually doesn't matter to them much.
After all, the lifespan of shinigami is far longer than that of humans and ordinary souls. The oldest ones even live for one or two thousand years. Under such circumstances, they naturally don't care about the passage of time of one or a couple of years.

After Hisana married Byakuya and changed her name to Kuchiki Hisana, she has been living in the mansion of the Kuchiki family. As expected by Mazuru and Shunsui, as an ordinary soul, she cannot bear the concentration of spirit particles in the air of Seireitei. The high concentration of spiritual seeds in her body caused problems in her body not long after, even so, she had no regrets. Even if her life ends soon, as long as she has spent the final moments of her life with her beloved, that is enough for her.
For her, the only regret is probably that she was unable to find her younger sister who was abandoned by her back then.
After she died in the world of living, she and her younger sister appeared in the 78th district of South Rukongai. The living environment was extremely harsh. For Hisana, an ordinary soul, it was almost hell, and because of that, she could only abandon her sister and escape alone.
Later, she met Byakuya, fell in love with him and got married. Finally, she was no longer troubled by life, and she came up with the idea of finding her younger sister. Even though her body had problems, as long as she could, she never gave up looking for her sister.

In a tavern, Rangiku is drinking with Mazuru.
It seemed that she drank a lot of wine causing Rangiku's cheeks becoming slightly red and her body was full of faint smell of alcohol.
After hearing the things about the Kuchiki family mentioned in Mazuru's chat, Rangiku couldn't help sighing, "Although they live in the same world, shinigamis and ordinary souls... they are indeed completely different."
