With the two of the 'dead' Arrancars frozen, the Shinigamis didn't know what to do but the only thing sure for now is that they didn't want to approach Serafall in fear of being frozen too.
Though before they could process everything that was happening, the real door to Hell that was adorned with two skeletons suddenly appeared.
Serafall frowned and prepared her Magic again while the Shinigamis also prepared for another fight. But contrary to what they were expecting, the ice that was holding Zommari began shaking and the tattoos of chains on his body began materializing and connecting him to so place beyond the door.
It didn't take long before the ice started falling apart and freeing the shaking Arrancar as he's being dragged by the chains towards the door.
Shinji's Hollow mask materialized and at the sa ti, he pointed his fist at him, charging his Cero.
"I advise you not to do it, Captain Hirako." All of a sudden, Shinji heard Mayuri's voice behind him, "Anyone who interferes with Hell's Judgent may be punished along with the sinner."
Without turning around, Shinji asked, "Are you saying what's happening right now is Hell's Judgent?"
"I can't be too sure... But are you willing to risk it?"
Shinji watched Zommari get dragged with black chains around him and he didn't let go of his hand until he saw the door close. Shinji sighs, dematerializing his Hollow mask, and taking back the charged Cero, "How annoying..."
Soon, the crimson door slowly beca transparent until it completely disappeared.
Mayuri ignored the frustrated Shinji and approached Serafall who was staring at the remaining Arrancar. And before he could even speak Serafall said, "It'll cost you more if you want him."
Mayuri stayed silent for a mont before saying, "I'll owe you one."
Serafall turned to him with an interested look, "Hooh? You're willing to take that risk?"
"That's how precious this specin is. But only if you can keep him here until I can make sure that he won't be able to escape."
"The one who escaped went through a certain ritual before activating those chains. I think as long as he's frozen here, he won't be able to do anything." The wand on Serafall's hand disappeared before she continued, "I'll set up a barrier around to keep the Humans away but that'll only be effective for 3 days before they start flocking here after finding out sothing is weird. As you've probably already noticed, my techniques are visible to Humans."
Mayuri nodded in satisfaction, "Three days... That's more than enough."
Serafall then handed a card to Mayuri that contained her address. The latter received and instantly morized what was written on it before destroying it.
"Well then, I'll be waiting." As a final surprise, Serafall demonstrated a Teleportation Magic and disappeared without any further words.
After seeing that, Mayuri took out his own phone and dialed a number. A second later, it was answered, "Akon, go to the Great Archive and confirm the laws regarding teleportation." He didn't wait for his reply and directly disconnected the call. It is not that he wanted to prosecute Serafall for her use of teleportation but he wanted to confirm if laws surrounding it only concern 'Kidou' and any other technique that uses Spiritual Power.
After confirming it, Mayuri would want to use it himself, 'I look forward to our next eting.'
Ignoring the entire 5th Division doing their work, Mayuri focused his sights on the frozen Arrancar.

Since the academy grounds were just along the eastern gate, Ophis and Lilith reached the place where they were enrolling relatively fast. Along the way, they curiously looked around and the Shinigami leading them attributed this to them seeing how different it is inside the Seireitei compared to the place where they ca from.
After a few more turns, the Shinigami leading them went up to a building and knocked on the door, "Instructor Ounabara, we're here."
"Co in."
The Shinigami turned to the 'twins' and gestured to them, "Follow ."
Ophis and Lilith silently nodded at him after he entered the building which looks like a dojo.
In the middle of the room was a bald middle aged man wearing glasses sitting in a seiza position. Unlike most of the Shinigami they ca across, the man was wearing a grey hakama and black haori.
The man called Instructor Ounabara imdiately eyed Ophis and Lilith and was imdiately surprised. He tried to intimidate them but it looks like it only went over their heads, "I received your ssage. You are saying that they are capable of releasing their Reiatsu?"
"Yes, Instructor." The Shinigami nodded, "I'm not too sure but I think their Reiatsu is at Lieutenant level."
The instructor went quiet for a mont and rubbed his chin before saying, "Understood. Thank you for your hard work. Leave this to and return to your post."
"Yes!" The Shinigami bowed deeply and walked backward before turning around the door and imdiately leaving.
As soon as he's gone, the instructor continued, "Well then, Nice to et you. Ounabara Gengorou, the Chief Instructor for the Class 1 Year 1."
"Ophis."
"Lilith."
The two also briefly introduced themselves.
Gengorou didn't mind their strange nas and directly asked, "Who taught you how to release your Reiatsu?"
"We learned it on our own." Ophis gave an answer that Kisuke prepared for them.
"How?"
"We felt we could move sothing inside our bodies and tried moving it." This ti, Lilith gave him the answer.
"Show it to ."
Ophis and Lilith didn't say anything and did exactly the sa thing as they did when they were outside and just enough to impress anyone watching them.
The instructor went quiet for a mont before saying, "If you can learn that on your own, instead of six years, you'll be able to graduate within a year. I hope you two didn't lie to ."
Gengorou thought that their potential is very obvious, however, he was also worried that this could have a detrintal effect when they handle an Asauchi since a Shinigami's blade develops alongside their owner, 'I'd have to ask for special permission for Asauchi. Though I don't think anyone would disagree with the Seireitei needing more talented individuals to replenish their ranks.'
