The Wandering of an Unstuck Stepbro: Multiverse Travel

Chapter 174: First day at school

(Ryoto's pov)

After the announcement of the groups, we went to check out our new rooms. At some point, Urahara, Tessai, and I separated from Yoruichi and Rin as the girls' dorms were in another direction from the boys' dorm. These two dorms were on two different sides of the main building.

Walking inside, I could see an ordinary room for two. Nothing much. Two beds on both sides of the room and a garderobe for our clothes.

I will be sharing a room with arguably the smartest person in this world. Not only that. The man named Kisuke Urahara is also cautious. He always comes expecting 1000 what-if scenarios just so he is never caught unprepared.

The good thing is that he only became like this after Aizen outsmarted him. Right now, he is younger and hopefully less mature and cunning but let's not forget that he probably still is highly intelligent, and because of his scientific mind, I assume he is a very curious individual.

It could either be bad or good for me. As an enemy, he would be my worst nightmare, but he isn't an enemy.

The bonus is that in the future, he will become a candy shop owner, and I'll be hoping for a friend discount.

Kisuke: "Now that we'll be living, let's introduce ourselves once more. My name is Kisuke Urahara, as you have heard from Yoruichi before."

He stuck out his hand for a handshake.

Now that I think about it, I didn't introduce myself before.

Ryoto: "Ryoto Yuuki. Nice to meet you."

We greeted each other with a handshake, but after that, there was an awkward silence.

Kisuke: "So... you know Yoruichi?"

We talked for a while about some things. He asked me about my life before, and I talked about how I lived in the 78th district. I didn't mention stealing, but it was apparent to anyone that I was forced to steal since, unlike most souls there, Rin and I needed food.

Urahara on, just like me, talked about his life. Before, he lived at Shihoin Mansion together with Yoruichi and Tessai, but he wasn't born there. Even earlier, he was a resident of the 75th district. There he was living by building useful objects and machines. It was noticed by the Shihoin clan or, more specifically, Yoruichi, and from that point onwards, he lived there.

Unfortunately for him, I wasn't that interested in machines in themselves, but I was incredibly good at math. Even without using my ability, I'm very proficient at it, so I may help him in the future with some things.

After some socializing, we went to sleep.

The following day I was forced to wear the academy's uniform. The clothes were a lot better than all of the things I have possessed in this world, so I'm not complaining.

After that, we all gathered in class. Now that I think about it, it's the third school I'll be attending and the third time's the charm, as they say.

In class, there was Yoruichi, Urahara, Tessai, and surprisingly Rin. I'm not saying that she is weak, but I didn't expect her to be in the first class, which is reserved only for the best of the best.

The classroom looked more like a college classroom than a high-school one. In my original world, I am in high school. In Assassination classrooms, I was a middle school student, and right now, I'm kind of in college. Does that mean I'll be a functional adult in the next world? Better not to jinx it, but one could hope. I don't want to be in a school every time I have a mission.

I was sitting at the front, and Rin followed suit. The known trio also sat near us. We were all waiting for class to begin as the teacher didn't arrive just yet.

Then everyone could feel an incredibly strong presence. Most of the people here started sweating, and a few of them almost fainted. Except for a teacher, an old man entered the classroom. Who would expect that I would meet the famous Head Captain so soon?

First Unohana and then Yamamoto. At this rate, I'll meet Yhwach tomorrow.

(E/D: The flag has been raised. My men, the council needs your presence. To discuss the fate of Ryoto Yuuki.)

But right now, I'm focusing on what's going on right now. Looking at Rin, I can see that she is struggling. She doesn't know how to release her Reiatsu, so it's probably suffocating for her.

I released my Reiatsu to protect her even slightly. I am very aware that I'm like a bug to Yamamoto at this point, but he doesn't want to kill or even make anyone unconscious. He probably just wants to show the difference between himself and the students. Maybe even to motivate them a bit, showing how strong they can become, but messing with Rin is off-limits.

My own Reiatsu was able to ease some pressure from Rin, but it was immediately noticed by the teacher, Yamamoto, and some of the students.

There would probably be some whispering if not for Yamamoto's pressure, as no one was stupid enough to release their Reiatsu against the Head Captain himself. Not to mention most of them can't do it even if they wanted to.

The teacher wanted to step in but was stopped by Yamamoto.

The old man opened his eyes slightly and increased pressure but only around me.

As I was continuously releasing Reiatsu to protect myself, Yamamoto was slowly increasing his as well.

Unlike me, his control over Reiatsu was masterful. Mine was spreading evenly but violently around me while he was focused on me. At the same time, I could feel Zangetsu's desire to battle.

At some point, I couldn't increase my Reiatsu anymore, and Yamamoto's Reiatsu didn't stop until I felt like I couldn't breathe anymore, and then the pressure suddenly vanished, and I was left panting.

Rin: "Ryoto, are you alright?"

Rin asked, worried about me, but I reassured her that I was okay.

Ryoto: "Don't worry, I'm fine. The pressure was just a lot stronger than I expected."

Yamamoto slammed his cane against the floor, gathering all of the students' attention.

Yamamoto: "Right now, all of you are weak."

He stated brutally.

Yamamoto: "But by the end of your time here, I'm hoping to see you become a real Shinigami. However, I want you to remember something. Seek not aesthetics in war. Seek not a virtue in death. Think not of thine own life should thee seek to protect thy king and the Five dukes. Slay all foe as indifferently as shadows of leaves. That's all from me."

With these words, he left, but he gave me a last glance at me before exiting the classroom.
