Chapter 361: Begone
Ōetsu Nimaiya couldn’t help but feel a tinge of emotion as he observed Masatsuki Aozaki, who made no effort to conceal his true self.
Despite being a disciple of Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto, Masatsuki was refreshingly straightforward and completely unpretentious—nothing like that old man.
Much better than Yamamoto, who put on a righteous facade in public but was anything but behind closed doors.
Ōetsu found that he much preferred someone as genuine as Masatsuki.
With a wave of his hand, the Zanpakutō sisters bowed gracefully and withdrew.
Turning back to Masatsuki, Ōetsu smiled and said,
"Masatsuki-chan, come with me. We can start right away."
Masatsuki blinked in surprise, his expression shifting.
He had expected to relax and enjoy himself here for a while before getting to business, but things were moving much faster than he anticipated.
"This soon?" he asked, puzzled.
Forging a Zanpakutō was an immensely important craft—shouldn’t he be tested first? Maybe be made to stay in Hōōden for a few days to prove his worth?
