I Died and Became a Hollow, But I Get Stronger by Being an Idiot Chapter 55 - 54: The Blue-Eyed Panther Arrives

The endless desert of Hueco Mundo stretched far and wide, my ugly cactus house standing proudly in its empty glory. I was relaxing next to Spike o Sensei when the five Adjuchas I hadn't seen in years returned — and this ti, they weren't alone.

A sleek, snow-white panther Adjuchas walked with them, blue eyes cold and sharp like icy daggers. His body was only a little bigger than Aizen (my pet Aizen, not that other one) and radiated raw danger. The mont I saw him, my soul scread.

It was him.

The white panther from years ago. The one who shredded my arm and leg.

I felt panic bubble inside .

The group stopped in front of my house. The panther's gaze locked onto , and my legs were ready to bolt.

"Oi," the panther growled at Shawlong, voice rough.

"This stupid-looking green thing is your leader? The one you think can lead you lot to Vasto Lorde?"

Before anyone could answer, my pet Aizen imdiately stepped forward. He straightened his little body, puffed out his chest, lifted one paw, and did a smug cool pose.

"Woff!"

He acted like so great, noble beast as if daring Grimmjow to question his authority too.

Grimmjow raised a brow.

"The hell's this mutt…?"

I, of course, hid behind Spike o Sensei again.

[Reason: Hiding while your pet acts cooler than you]

Shawlong sighed.

"Yeah… he won the vote."

Grimmjow narrowed his gaze at .

"Tch. You lot serious?"

I ducked down further behind the cactus.

[EP Gained: 12,000]

[Reason: Hiding again from your old nightmare]

Grimmjow gave my cactus house a disgusted look.

"This ugly dump yours too?"

I gave a reluctant nod.

[EP Gained: 6,000]

[Reason: Owning a house so ugly it offends Adjuchas pride]

After a mont of tense staring, Grimmjow let out a scoff, flicked his tail, and turned away.

He didn't rember .

Not Aizen either.

Aizen, still posing coolly, let out a quiet "Woff…" of relief.

I whispered to myself in a half-roar,

"I almost forgot about this blue-eyed psycho from years ago…"

And so, I survived.
