Chapter 23 - Chapter 22: it doesn’t matter

# Hoshito's house #

I came back with Renji and Rukia who have

irritated expression on their faces. In the house there was Urahara waiting for

us.

Urahara: "Oh! Back so soon? I thought it

would take­­—!" he said and stopped when he saw two red marks of punch in my

face.

He turned to both Shinigami and back to me

then chuckled.

Urahara: "Hoshito-San, did you fight

Abarai-Kun, and Kuchiki-San?"

Hoshito: "If the word fighting including

letting this guy punching very hard then yes." I said while pointing at Renji.

Urahara couldn't hold laugh and burst out.

A big vein showed up at my head while holding myself back from punching him. After

while he asks what happened there and I explained to him.

Urahara: "I see, and because of that

Abarai-Kun beat you up."

Hoshito: "Yeah…"

Urahara: "Well, that's very understandable

since you are overestimated yourself."

Hoshito: "Huh?"

He didn't add other words and turned to

Rukia with playful look. She sighed and it didn't look like she wanted to do

what he wanted, but eventually she turned to me and looked at me with serious

expression.

Rukia: "Listen you foul, it doesn't matter

how much reiatsu you have if you don't know how to use it." — she closed her

eyes for moment then opened — "in other words no matter how high your reiatsu

if you don't have skills to use it then you are nothing more than dead weight."

The words hit me like swords stabbing my

heart. I cliched hard my fist and lowered my head. Renji adds the wound up as mentioned

the hollow's attack by using his head at me.

Hoshito: "But his head wasn't my direction

back then! You saw it too; he felled on his kneels!"

Renji: "Huh? What are you talking about? We

only saw swing at the air next to the hollow."

The last sentenced caught Urahara attention

and he asked for details. Renji explained that after I drew my sword the hollow

moved slightly away from me, and then I started swinging at the air and turning

my back on the hollow. At that moment he interfered and struck down the Hollow.

When we heard that we realized something

was wrong. The hollow shouldn't be able to use hallucination or illusion for

Hollow at his size. It was obvious he wasn't Adjuchas nor special Hollow.

Hoshito: 'Don't tell me it was same

situation with ability of the fog…?!'

I looked at Urahara and he was deep in

thoughts. Then suddenly he suggests we talk about this another time and leave

the house with serious expression on his face. It was bizarre for him to leave

like that, but it shows how dangerous things might be.

I rubbed my head out of frustration and

said to both of Shinigami to go to their friend's house aka Ichigo's and do

whatever they want, but don't bring me trouble.

They both looked puzzled, but they soon

realized the seriousness of this and agreed about it, then left the house.

Hoshito: 'Things goes hard on me, and I

can't keep up with it.' — I thought while sitting on the couch — "Sigh, I wish

I could be just mob character and takes easy life here."

V: "Is that so? Does mob life easy?" he said as he suddenly showed up behind me.

Hoshito: "How long you were standing

there?"

V: "Just now."

I sighed again with tired expression on my

face. V sit beside me with his usual expressionless.

Hoshito: 'Dude just change this damn

expression.'

V: "So, what are you going to do?"

Hoshito: "I don't know, but one thing

certain… I have to train myself and gain some skills to fight Shu."

V: "Shu?"

Hoshito: "I mean Tsukishima!! I need to

train to fight him!" I said panickily.

V shrugged it off.

V: "Then that makes two of us."

Hoshito: "you are going to train too?!" I

said with surprised expression.

V: "Yes, since my powers went down to limit

myself here I need to train to regain at least some of it." he said while

looking at his Qunicy necklace.

Hoshito: "I see, then we should decide

where to train."

V: "Right, and the best place would be Urahara's

basement."

My expression to annoyed one since I don't

want to go there at any cost but it's the safest one from others' eyes.

V: "Hoshito, there was question I have for

long time."

Hoshito: "What is it?"

V: "What's your real name?"

The question caught me off guard as I never

expected someone to ask me this. It's very personal to me since I don't like to

tell anyone my name. The room became heavy and quiet like a change would happen

here.

Hoshito: "…it's Hoshito Yuru… the same name

this body's owner has."

V eyes wide open and his expressionless

face changed to surprised one.

Hoshito: "Shocked, right? I don't blame you

about it. and it's not that." — I took deep breath and looked at V with serious

expression — "The family here and this life pre-Hoshito have is same life I

have in my previous life."

V: "What?!"

Hoshito: "Yes, I could tell that because

there was a dairy in his desk, and when I read it…"

V: "it's says the very similar events

happened to you but with slightly different in it, right?"

I nodded. The first time I saw it my heart

stopped beaten for a second and a huge fear came to me, I didn't know what to

do, so I stayed for two days until I calmed down.

V: 'Same life, same family, same name… that

can't be coincident, but no one capable to do that… could it be the soul king…

no I might overthinking.' he thought while checked his head in the last

sentence.

Hoshito: "But it doesn't matter to me.

Since I will do what I want."

V: "It doesn't bother you?"

Hoshito: "a little but what can we do? We

don't have a clue and it's pain in ass."

V: "You are right… by the way Hoshito…

where is your body within soul candy?"

Hoshito: "Ah….ahhhhh I totally forget about

it!!"
