"Katsu-nee, did you see that?!"
Asuka asked wide-eyed when she saw everything that just happened.
"Yep... I really wasn't expecting that at all. Also, that bastard really didn't play by the rules, huh?"
"Eh? What do you mean?"
"I mean, usually, the boss fight should last for a while and cause a lot of damage, right? They should summon their minions and take a hostage or something, then the hero would fight with all they have while their arm is bleeding until they finally finish the boss! Then, before the boss dies, they say something like, 'You won't be able to stop my army!' or 'I'll have my revenge in the next life!' or something like that, but that bastard just straight up killed the dude in an instant without letting him do anything! We didn't even hear a cool backstory!"
Asuka held her chin and nodded.
"Mm, I see what you mean. It did feel kind of boring, though it did look cool when he rushed up to him and cut him down. I couldn't even keep up with his moves and the pressure I felt from him in that brief instant was terrifying..."
"Hahaha, exactly~! Maybe another boss-level dude will show up and we can see an actual boss fight!"
"Ohhh, I want to see it, too!"
⟪ ... Those girls know I can hear them, right? And why does Katsuragi keep calling me a bastard?! Whatever, the Arrancar is dead and I need to check on Marin. Even though I can see that she's fine from here, I still feel bad about leaving her while I play with the Hollows. ⟫
David stored Zangetsu back in his soul and reverted back to the outfit he was wearing when he left the apartment. His hair also reverted from a short ponytail back to a wolf cut that reached his shoulders.
He turned and started walking to where Marin was waiting, but before he could get even a few steps away, a loud and obnoxious voice called out to him.
"Hey! Where are you going?!"
David turned around and saw Katsuragi staring at him with her arms crossed.
⟪ Seriously, I don't have the patience to deal with someone like Katsuragi right now. Like I said before, she's no different than a perverted man. If Asuka wasn't here, I wonder if I'd just kill her like I did with the perverted protagonist earlier? Though, that guy was an accident... In the words of Bob Ross, it was a "happy accident". ⟫
David didn't immediately throw the idea out of his mind and looked at Katsuragi with an irritated look on his face.
"I'm leaving. Why, do you wanna fight with me?"
David smiled like a predator that just found a new prey and started slowly walking towards Katsuragi.
The blonde girl clenched her fists as if preparing for a fight.
"No, I just wanted to ask you some questions."
⟪ Why you? You're not the team leader and hardly have the brains to ask what should be asked. I'd happily talk to Ikaruga, Yagyuu, Hibari, or Asuka, but I'm instead stuck with this man disguised as a sexy girl? No, thanks. ⟫
"Mm, and what questions do you want to ask? I'm in a hurry so if it's something stupid, I'm gonna get really pissed off," David said with unmasked hostility in his tone.
'This bastard...'
Katsuragi tried to calm herself down before she said something that would upset David. She saw his power firsthand and knows she can't beat him.
Right before she answered, David secretly flicked a finger in Katsuragi's direction from behind his back.
"I wanted to know who you are and who you're affiliated with. If you're a threat to the public, I'll need to take you in or retreat and find a way to kill you in the future."
Asuka looked at Katsuragi in shock.
Katsuragi was no better as her eyes went wide and stared at David in horror.
'Why the hell did I just say that?!'
⟪ Heheh~, while I won't use my magic on women, Katsuragi is definitely an exception. A little truth spell is all it takes to get someone like her to tell me whatever she's really thinking. ⟫
"Oho~? And you think anyone in your little group would be strong enough to take me down?"
David continued to walk closer to Katsuragi while he spoke to her, staring directly into her eyes and releasing the smallest amount of Reiatsu he could to intimidate her.
"S-S...! K...!"
She tried to say something, but the tiny amount of David's spiritual pressure was too much for her, causing her to start sweating and making her unable to get her words out, only allowing her to make choking sounds.
David smirked and turned his attention to Asuka.
Asuka was frozen stiff and couldn't move or speak. Not because of David's spiritual pressure, but because she was too scared.
When David looked at her, his hostility vanished and was replaced with a gentle smile and an aura of comfort.
"Miss Asuka, I think I'd be more happy talking with someone like you. I can tell you're a kind girl, unlike this battle-maniac gorilla over here."
⟪ Well, I already know her personality. Like I said before, she's a bit naïve, but she's still very kind. And she's incredibly cute, too. That's definitely a plus. She's much better than this blonde gorilla who's on the verge of pissing her pants from just a sliver of my Reiatsu. ⟫
Katsuragi: 'STOP CALLING ME A DAMN GORILLA YOU BASTARD!'
Asuka calmed herself down and looked at David, blushing as she just now realized how handsome he is.
"So, Miss Asuka, is there anything you'd like to ask me? Or anything you'd like to say? I won't bite unless asked to, I promise," David said with a smile.
"Um... T-Thank you for getting rid of all of the Hollows! I'll make a report about what happened and I'll be sure to tell them that you're friendly and not a threat!"
⟪ See? Blonde Gorilla could learn a thing or five from Asuka. If she wasn't so obsessed with groping Asuka's breasts every chance she gets, she might not be so damn worthless. ⟫
"I appreciate that, Miss Asuka. Well then, I have to get going and check on my girlfriend. I'd rather not have her worry about me. It was nice meeting you, Miss Asuka."
David then turned to Katsuragi and immediately lost the gentle smile on his face, replacing it with a look of disdain.
"It was... Well, I can say that I've met you, Blonde Gorilla. Try not to cause trouble for your teammates, I'm sure it gets annoying dealing with something like you," David said with disgust.
He then turned around and started walking to where Marin was waiting.
⟪ I may have been a bit too harsh on Katsuragi, but can I be blamed? She got way too hostile first despite me saving them time by killing all of the Hollows. Not to mention I could immediately tell she didn't like me for some reason. Why? The hell did I do? I didn't like her either, but I would've at least been polite with her. Whatever, if she starts shit with me again, I'll just teleport her into outer space. You wanna act like a man, I'll damn well treat you like one. ⟫
A few seconds later, David arrived at Marin's location and smiled at her.
"Sorry about that. Miss me?"
Marin nodded her head and ran out of the barrier, jumping into David's arms.
"Yes~! I was worried at first when I saw all of the monsters, but you looked so cool killing them all with your sword! And then when you flicked those small blue light balls at them, that was so cool~! Also, when you did that big magic that covered the city, that was awesome~!"
Marin was talking very fast and excitedly like a kid who saw their superhero up close and was telling their parents about it.
David chuckled and rubbed Marin's head with his left hand while holding her waist against his body with his right hand.
"Hahaha, I'm glad you had fun. Sorry it interrupted our date, but it's still early so we have plenty of time to shop and relax today."
"Yes~! Also, I have to agree with that blonde girl. You killed the boss way too fast! You didn't let him do any of the cool things that big villains are supposed to do! I didn't want to see you get hurt, but seeing at least one boss transformation would have been really fun to watch~!"
David's left hand paused briefly as he was dumbfounded by what Marin just said.
⟪ No, Marin, that's not how it's supposed to go... You're supposed to praise me for killing him so quickly, not agree with that blonde gorilla! She hates me for no reason, okay? She basically threatened to kill me, okay?! She's bad! Plus, if she gets close to you, she might try to grab your breasts. That's a big no-go! I'd rather not let you see me killing a human, a human girl at that, but anyone who tries to touch what's mine will be lucky if a quick death is all they'll get... Anyway, bad Marin! Don't agree with her! ⟫
"Hmmm... I understand. If there's ever a big boss battle again in the future, I promise I'll let him transform and let you watch. I'll make it as dramatic as possible for you," David said while still rubbing Marin's head.
"Mm, good! Since you killed him way too fast, you'll have to buy me a bunch of stuff at COSPA!"
"Haha, that's fine by me," David agreed, taking Marin's hand and continuing their walk to Akihabara.
⟪ I admit I killed the guy a little too quickly, but what if he sent out a bunch of elite Hollows that spread around the city before I could stop them? If you want to see a big boss fight, just watch anime or something and then I'll find a way to record any big fights I have in the future to show you later. Well, I say that, but... I'm pretty sure more stupid shit is gonna happen around me and will be witnessed by my women plenty of times. ⟫
⟪ Power of Chaos my ass, the universe just wants to tease its creator! Bah bah, what a bastard universe! Show yourself and I'll beat the hell outta you, Cosma! Actually, did I ever have the idea of Cosma having a human form or anything? That'd be kinda cool... A human universe... Meh, I'd still beat the hell outta Cosma... Unless they're a beautiful woman of course, I can't hit a beautiful woman. ⟫
⟪ Well, if it's the Bambies, or rather Sternritter F, I'm not sure how I'll go about dealing with them... They're all beautiful women, except Giselle. Giselle may look attractive, but that's biologically a dude... So kill Giselle and convince the others to forget about all the Quincy vs. Soul Reaper bullshit. They're just being used anyway so it's not like they're irredeemable. Alright, that settles it. Save the beautiful women and kill anyone else that gets in the way... ⟫
The more the women listened, the more they understood what type of person David is.
'He can easily kill men, but is very lenient on beautiful women.'
Such was their consensus. Though, they'd be slightly wrong because while David may be lenient on beautiful women, it only counts if they have a possibility of falling in love with him.
Women like Katsuragi would actually be killed much quicker than men since they're more likely to grope his women.
If there's one thing David hasn't displayed yet, it's his demented possessiveness over his women. He wasn't lying when he said a quick death would be the best outcome for anyone trying to go for his women...
⟪ I should probably wipe the memories of people that saw anything, but I'll leave it to the Soul Society. Those bastards should've done something, but do I see any of them? Nooo~, they're nowhere to be seen! Bah, whatever. I just want to enjoy my date with Marin. Wait, now that I think about it... ⟫
'Chaos-chan! Add all the female Bleach characters I'm thinking about to the Harem Frequency if they're not already added!'
[Roger! ... Ah, actually, they've all been added already. You have quite a lot of listeners, David, heheh~.]
'Ohhh~... Alright then, it's showtime!'
⟪ You know, I wouldn't mind if the Soul Society sent some of my favorite characters here to clean things up. In fact, I'll leave these people's memories intact, that way they're forced to send someone. Maybe Rangiku Matsumoto will come here? It's a little above her paygrade, but I mean... I'm now strong enough to wipe out everyone in the Soul Society so I'm a pretty big threat to them and they'll need someone who can observe me, right? With my luck, she'd be perfect to send down here. ⟫
⟪ I got the powers of the end-of-series Ichigo plus even stronger Reiryoku and Reiatsu so if that Garveth dude knew about me, the others should as well, right? Heheh~, Rangiku was one of my favorite characters in the anime. Not just because she's beautiful, but also because even though she's free-spirited and lazy, she can also be caring and sensitive to other people. Ahh, she would be a perfect wife to get drunk with. Wait, this body is too young to drink... Eh, it's fine, I can brainwash anyone that has a problem with it. ⟫
⟪ Oh, there's also Retsu Unohana, or rather Yachiru Unohana? She was born as Retsu, but then named herself Yachiru, but then went BACK to Retsu... So, Retsu then? Anyway, she seems sweet on the surface and works as a healer and is the Captain of the Fourth Division, but she's totally bloodthirsty deep down and I love it! She has a refined type of beauty, kind of like Akeno Himejima from Highschool DxD, and it broke my heart when Unohana died in the series. Hmm, I should probably kill all the bastards that want to cause trouble ahead of time, right? I don't want Unohana to die a stupid death again. Even if I can't get to know her and she doesn't know I saved her life, I'll still do it. Just knowing she'll still be alive will make me happy. ⟫
⟪ Since Chaos-chan told me the events of Bleach haven't happened yet, that means that Aizen hasn't defected from the Soul Society with Gin Ichimaru and Kaname Tosen yet, so if I killed them, I'd probably be branded as an enemy. Silly Shinigami, you don't even realize that you have a ton of enemies hiding right under your noses. ⟫
⟪ Well, I shouldn't blame them too much. Aizen is a sneaky bastard and has been planning things for a hundred years. If I managed to go to the Soul Society, would I be able to save Jushiro Ukitake, Kaien Shiba, and Miyako Shiba? Ah, wait, nope. Just remembered that they died like, 50 years prior to the start of Bleach. I was remembering the flashback that showed how it changed Rukia. They probably still have no idea that Aizen was the one that created Metastacia, huh? ⟫
⟪ Poor Momo, too. She really believed in Aizen, but sometime later, he legit stabs her in the stomach. I totally cried at that scene, even though Momo survived. The emotional damage was too strong for me. Damn, I wish I could just kill those bastards. ⟫
⟪ Wait, if I kill Gin, Rangiku would probably hate me, too. Yeah, I don't want her to hate me so I'll just let them do their thing. Once Aizen fakes his death, maybe I'll help them out. Though, Rukia would also be plotted against and sent for execution... Hmm, too many people to save... Screw it, I'm not a hero. I'll just kill the bad guys who provoke me and my girls while leaving the rest to Ichigo and friends. ⟫
⟪ ... Well, I say my girls, but right now I only have Marin. I'm not being ungrateful, but Marin's body wouldn't be able to withstand any nightly activities consecutively. She wants to learn magic though so maybe I can buy some stuff from the System Shop to give her some powers. Heheh~, I'll make all of my girls strong enough to blow up the planet in the future... ⟫
⟪ Oops... My mind wandered way off-topic again... ⟫
Feeling like his exposition was good enough for now and the bait was set properly, David shifted his focus to Chaos-chan.
'Chaos-chan, how often will these random events happen? I'd prefer them to not happen often, I mean, this is supposed to be a slice-of-life for another year, right? Why the sudden supernatural action?'
[I don't know when they'll happen most of the time as they're truly random, I will only know a few minutes to a few hours ahead of time. Some events I could know about in advance, but I wouldn't say anything unless it's life-threatening to you or the girls around you since telling you would only spoil the fun. Also, there are more supernatural franchises than just Bleach, okay? Just focus on your happiness, focus on your girls, and keep earning points so that you can have enough next time there's a sale... Ahaha...]
'How many--nevermind. You'd just spoil your fun if you told me how many there are, right? Right... Anyway, can you at least make it so that I don't have to deal with the plot from Bleach too much? I don't hate the franchise, but... It has too much going on, honestly.'
["Too much going on"? Really? Have you even seen the world you created?! You literally killed Takeru Ooyama and Yuu Izumi while fighting against the Hollows with girls from Senran Kagura on your date with Marin! I won't even say who else is in the world, but you really have no room to talk... There are corporate bigwigs that are dead giveaways to other franchises, but you've been keeping away from news so you don't even know anything! Seriously! Tch tch!]
'Alright alright, damn. Calm down. I just don't want to get caught up in some big thing that Ichigo should be handling when I'm trying to woo women, okay? If they bother me again, I'm just gonna straight up kill the big bads and then tell them to handle the rest. That should make things easier for them, right?'
[... I won't tell you not to do it because you earned quite a lot of Chaos Points just by killing the Hollows and that Gareth or Garveth or whatever dude, but if you change things too much, even I wouldn't be able to guess what could happen. Just roll with the punches and do what you want, I'll support you either way.]
'Thanks. But seriously, I just want to flirt with romcom heroines. Now that I got a brief look at the action side of things, I find it troublesome... Oh well...'
[Oh yeah, aside from getting the Harem Protagonist Halo and Goddess of Luck's Blessing talents, you also got two SSR-guaranteed lottery draws as well as 100,000 Chaos Points due to killing two protagonists.]
'... Okay, this event paid for itself and then some, holy shit. Shouldn't I just kill all the protagonists then?'
[You could, but then you'd likely have to deal with whatever plotlines are involved in their franchise. You'll have to get involved with Maken-ki! now as well, but... Meh, it should be fine since things are way different from the original work anyway, even if Takeru was still alive. Just get more lovers and smite the poor bastards that cross you. It'll be fun!]
⟪ Chaos-chan... I literally just said I only wanted to flirt with romcom heroines... Whatever, I'll just let things happen as they happen. I definitely won't complain about being dragged into a ton of different franchises without getting a chance to rest. Not at all. I'm a good person who wouldn't complain over something silly like that. ⟫
David's timing was quite nice as they arrived at the store right as he finished his chat with Chaos-chan.
"Here we are~! This is Sofmap and I figured it'd be a good place to go since you can buy a phone and it's close to COSPA."
"Nice, I also want to look at the different cameras they have. Even though I won't buy any since I know they're expensive, I'll just see which is the best one and then use magic to recreate it along with some computers later on."
Marin looked at David in awe.
"Waaa~! You can do that?! That's awesome! You should totally upgrade my stuff, too!"
David just smiled at Marin, "Of course, my women will never be left wanting for anything. If you want something, just ask and I'll provide it."
Marin giggled and dragged David inside Sofmap, ready to finally start their shopping.
