I Died and Became a Hollow, But I Get Stronger by Being an Idiot Chapter 39: The Blame Game and the Dog’s True Nature

Today, I decided it was finally ti to practice my Cero properly.

Not because I wanted to get stronger — but because I figured if I could make it into a weird shape, it'd look cool.

I aid my hand at a random rock in the distance.

"GUOOOOOOOOOH!!"

(Translation: Watch this, Aizen! I'm gonna write my na with Cero!)

A wild, unstable red beam shot out from my mouth.

I didn't even manage to aim properly.

BOOOOOOM!!!

It hit a nearby Adjuchas who happened to be minding his own business.

Direct hit.

I blinked.

The Adjuchas slowly turned around, half his mask cracked, glaring at .

I knew right away I ssed up.

I panicked.

And like any proud, towering Gillian idiot — I did what I always do.

I pointed to Aizen.

"GUOOOOOOOH!!"

(Translation: He did it!! It was him!! Look at his smug dog face!)

The Adjuchas wasn't buying it.

He snarled, baring his fangs.

"You think I'm an idiot? That weak dog can't fire a—"

Before he finished, a brilliant blue light erupted from Aizen's mouth.

A blue Cero. Massive. Furious. Easily 100 tis stronger than mine.

I could only stare, eyes wide, jaw hanging.

The blast vaporized half the Adjuchas' body instantly.

A crater appeared where he once stood, his lower half remaining, twitching in the sand.

I blinked.

"A-Aizen…?"

The brainless mutt who I thought was a dumb Hollow dog…

was an Adjuchas. A powerful one.

He wagged his tail, panting, tongue out like it was nothing.

I was so shocked I almost ran off without him.

"GUOOOOOOOH!!"

(Translation: Oh crap, Aizen! Co on!!)

We made it a safe distance away.

The half-eaten Adjuchas glared at with what remained of his face.

I leaned in close.

"GUOOOOOOOOOH."

(Translation: Why didn't you believe …?)

Then walked off like a boss.

Or, you know, as much of a boss as a 6-story idiot Gillian can be.
