Chapter 687: I’d like to ask you a question
Translator: imperfectluck Editor: Kurisu
“This is the first ever account… card?”
“That’s right.”
“Is it alright to give such a aningful item to ?”
“It doesn’t matter.” Yui casually glossed over it.
‘No, no, I think it does matter, elder sister!’
“This number is giving a significant amount of pressure…” Seiji’s eyes twitched.
“The number is only a number. The only thing it signifies is the order in which the account was given out. There’s no special aning.”
“Although that may be the case, I still think this number should be given to soone stronger than .”
“I’ve already given you the card, so I won’t take it back. If you think there’s aning in this number, then make it so that you deserve the aning of this number.”
Her words seed to contain deep aning. Seiji fell silent for a mont.
“Rather than 001, I think I like 007 better…” Seiji recalled a certain legendary spy from his previous world.
“Why’s that?” Yui asked.
“Because I think that number is luckier.”
“You’re already extrely lucky.”
“I don’t think so at all… besides, nobody can have too much luck,” Seiji stated. “Thank you for giving this.”
He beca a registered unit… whoops, account holder of Soul Society rather than joining the faction outright. This was the relationship between an organization and one of its custors. This type of relationship was currently ideal for him.
“No need for thanks. I gave it to you because I have expectations for you,” Yui told him lightly.
“What type of specific expectations?”
“Nothing specific. I just want to see what extent you can achieve.”
“Just like with the Bloodwine Ritual tournant?” Seiji looked directly at her.
“Yep.” Yui admitted this.
Both of them fell silent for a mont.
“I hope that I won’t disappoint you.” Seiji chuckled. “By the way… now that I’m an account holder, can I request support from Soul Society?”
“What exactly do you need?”
“Ergency reinforcents in tis of danger, such as if the ssengers faction attacks for revenge.”
“That’s fine. But, Soul Society may not be able to respond imdiately. You’ll also have to pay an appropriate price for the support you receive.”
“That’s still better than no backup support at all.”
Just being able to request support was already a wonderful benefit. An account holder was different from a formal mber of Soul Society. It wouldn’t be possible for him to expect complete protection.
“Also, let t just ask sothing else. Only by joining Soul Society will I be able to obtain Soul Society’s full protection, correct?”
“Of course.”
“What should I do if I want to join Soul Society?”
“Apply and take a test. Only by passing the test will you be allowed to enter,” Yui told him. “Or, you can complete a sufficient number of missions as an account holder. Once you prove your strength, you’ll be able to apply and join without needing to take a test.”
“Will it be the sa for an entire team?”
“Pretty much?”
“What about Soul Society’s recruitnt? What types of people does Soul Society need? How do they recruit?”
“That’s not sothing you need to know.”
Seiji had many more questions he wanted to ask. However, it would seem that his older sister wouldn’t tell him so easily.
Just as he was thinking about what to ask next, Yui glanced over at his hospital bed.
“I’d like to ask you a question, Seiji.”
“What is it?”
“How many girls have you slept with already?”
Seiji was rendered speechless.
Heavens, this was such a pointed question!
Seiji’s expression beca incredibly awkward as he averted his gaze. He wanted to respond that he hadn’t slept with a single one, but it just happened to be that a girl was sleeping on his bed right now!
But if he answered that he had, that didn’t seem quite right either. Although he had now gone farther and done sexy things with his girlfriends, they still hadn’t taken the final step yet.
So, please help him, how was he supposed to answer such a question!?
The scene fell silent for a while.
Yui’s gaze turned icy as she stared at her younger brother’s handso face.
“Cough…” Seiji lightly coughed in order to calm himself down. “If Sister Yui is referring to having sex when you said ‘slept with’, then I haven’t done it with a single girl yet.”
Excellent! He felt that this would be the perfect answer.
Yui’s icy gaze seed to lessen ever so slightly.
“Even if you haven’t had sex, sleeping together is almost at that level.”
‘No, there’s a huge difference!’ Seiji really wanted to deny this.
“I don’t want to interfere with your personal relationships. It’s your freedom to sleep with as many girls as you like. But since I have expectations of you… I prefer not to see sothing so distasteful,” Yui spoke in a deep and foreboding tone.
Seiji broke out into a cold sweat as he nodded.
Yui took another deep glance at her younger brother before she stood up and left the room.
Seiji poured a cup of water for himself after she left. He downed it all in one gulp and let out a huge sigh of relief.
He then looked at the card in his hand.
After looking at it for a while, he injected his Mana.
The red runes on the card lit up and projected a spell formation. The spell formation then transford into a screen that displayed words.
Seiji carefully read over the explanation.
“Brother…” a voice suddenly spoke behind him.
Seiji turned around to see that Shika had woken up.
“I’m sorry for waking you up.” Seiji was apologetic.
Shika fell silent.
Actually, she had woken up a while ago. She pretended to still be asleep and listened in on the conversation. However, she also sensed that Yui had noticed this.
“This is a Soul Society registration card that Yui gave . She just ca to visit …” Seiji explained things.
Shika went up to his side and read the explanation together with him.
After they finished reading, both felt that there were no problems.
Seiji squeezed the card, causing the words on the projected screen to turn into a contract.
He read it over carefully once again before making his final confirmation. The contract transford into a complex black-and-white spell formation with one part left blank.
On this particular contract, he could sign with whatever userna he wanted, just like a website account. He didn’t have to use his real life na.
His account number was 001… although Yui said that it only represented the account number order and nothing else, Seiji still felt that this number was aningful.
Seiji wanted to have a cool-sounding userna.
How about “Knight King”?
Although this sounded cool to him, yet… Forget about his friends jokingly calling him that, he would be far too embarrassed if strangers called him by this na!
“Shika-chan, what userna do you think would be good?” Seiji couldn’t think up a good userna, so he asked his adopted younger sister’s opinion.
Shika blinked to hear him asking.
“Brother can decide.”
“I want a cool-sounding na, but I can’t think of a good one…”
Shika thought about it for a mont.
“Divine King.”
Seiji was rendered speechless.
“Although this na sounds cool, it’s a little too domineering for .” Seiji’s cheeks twitched.
“I think that this na is quite appropriate for Brother.” Shika was quite serious.
“Thank you for believing so. But, I don’t think it’s that appropriate. Any other ideas?”
“Saint King.”
“That’s almost the sa, it’s not too appropriate…”
“Divine Saint King.”
“It’s even more inappropriate when you combine them! How about removing the ‘King’ portion of the na?”
“Amasei-omikami.”
“You’re just changing one small portion and adding my na into Amaterasu-omikami! Calling myself a god is just as embarrassing as calling myself a king!!” Seiji comnted. “I want a cool na that doesn’t sound too ridiculous. Otherwise, I’ll feel awkward when strangers call by that na…” Seiji sighed.
He suddenly recalled the temporary na he went by during the Winter Snow Festival from last year.
That na sounded quite good to him. It had a certain aning to it but didn’t sound silly at all.
Seiji spoke it out loud. Sothing flashed in Shika’s eyes as she heard this. She then nodded in agreent.
And so, the userna was decided upon.
Seiji then illuminated the blank portion of the spell formation with his Mana, causing the contract to be activated. It started glowing red together with the faint sound of incantations being muttered.
After Seiji wrote his na, the spell formation started glowing and then returned to the card in a patch of glowing mist. The black-and-white twin dragon formation upon it began spinning, slowly revealing a small pentagram in the center.
Registration complete.
The first account holder of Soul Society, code number 001— White Night 1 !
