"Accept my blood."
The mont those words left Yhwach's mouth, Yoruichi imdiately reacted with a frown, "Kisuke, I know you're reckless, but don't be this reckless."
She knew exactly what it ant to take Yhwach's blood, as this was exactly how the Sternritter were born, the fancy word for Yhwach's slaves.
But contrary to her expectations, Kisuke remained silent, and she beca worried, "Kisuke?" She called out to him, 'Did his morbid curiosity kick in again? How would this even work in the first place? He's not a Quincy.'
Kisuke didn't outright reject Yhwach's idea and instead said, "What a horrible idea. Do you want to kill that much? And if I survive, I'll beco your helpless dog?"
"I won't offer it to you if I think you'd settle for that." It beca clear to Kisuke and Yoruichi that Yhwach was challenging him.
Kisuke thought about it for a mont before shaking his head, "Just share it with so we can move on."
"I won't give it to you any other way. If you don't want it, then we can return to how it was before."
Kisuke beca quiet. He didn't know what Yhwach wanted to achieve, but he could tell that he wouldn't budge on this, 'Does he even know what would happen if I take his blood?'
There was only silence after that. However, it didn't take too long before that silence was broken with Kisuke taking a deep breath and letting out a rather huge sigh, "Let's get into it."
"Kisuke!" Yoruichi imdiately raised her voice in objection, "This is too dangerous! And it's an unnecessary risk you're taking!"
"Risk you say..." Yhwach interrupted her, "He could wrest away the control, and it'll be beneficial to him."
"Breaking free or not, it could also pose a problem to later on." Kisuke scratched his head, "But I do think that this is still better than painting a target on my back when I'm essentially going to be alone in that world without much information to go with. I'm sorry, Yoruichi."
Yoruichi opened her mouth to say sothing, but no words ca out. She saw Kisuke's expression and knew that she wouldn't be able to change his mind. In fact, she could even feel the slight excitent in his voice.
She also let out a huge sigh and crossed her arms, "...I won't be telling this to anyone, so you guys better not say anything about what you're about to see."
Mitsuya could feel that Yhwach's attention had slightly diverted from him, so he could breathe easier, but he stepped behind Yoruichi in case sothing else ca up.
Seeing that Kisuke had already made his choice, Yhwach raised his right arm, and a black wide ceremonial cup with a shining silver five-pointed star in the middle appeared, and it was automatically filled with viscous deep red liquid.
It floated away from Yhwach's hand and ca to a stop in front of Kisuke.
Kisuke stared at it intently for a few seconds before grabbing it. He didn't do anything that resembled the ritual that the Sternritters do, nor did he display any reverence to the monarch.
With the cup in his hand, Kisuke was able to sll the blood, and though it didn't sll like anything he had known before, he asked, "Before I fully commit, what is it you're trying to achieve or prove here?"
Yhwach didn't imdiately answer and instead looked up into deep space, "Give a reason... on why this world should exist as it is."
'As expected, I can't really understand him. What does he an by a reason?' Kisuke shook his head and drank Yhwach's blood without any hesitation this ti.
As it went through his throat, Kisuke felt the blood disappear, turning into a mist before fusing with his body and joining the flow of his own blood.
Before he could tell what changed, Yhwach spoke again, "[The Alchemical]. I bestow this Schrift upon you. The sa letter "A" as ."
Kisuke watched out for any more changes in his body for a minute or two but found nothing else, "I'm your successor now? I don't know if I like that." He muttered with a grin.
Yhwach didn't reply to that and instead shared what he saw with him using his blood as the dium.
Kisuke imdiately felt his blood acting up but didn't do anything to stop it. Imdiately after, several images flashed in his head, accompanied by knowledge of a world that seed to co out of nowhere, "This is [The Almighty]? How did you even lose?" Kisuke held his head and grimaced. There wasn't much to the information that Yhwach transferred to him, but the weight of it on his consciousness was unexpectedly unbearable.
Seraselbes' patience was already running thin because she couldn't stay here for a prolonged period of ti, and she'd rather spend ti with Stralit than these slly n. So when she saw that Kisuke already got an image of the place he intended to go, she imdiately took out a tallic cylinder with an opening that's only as tall as Kisuke, "Hurry up and get in."
Kisuke was surprised but still walked towards it, "It looks a lot simpler than I thought."
Seraselbes didn't mind Kisuke's assessnt because this was purposely built to be as simple as possible with the sole goal of reaching its destination... Hopefully, not in pieces, "If not for lvazoa's increasing surveillance, I could have finished this within one Earth year."
'She actually needed one year?' Yoruichi asked herself because Seraselbes is known as the 'Tool ister' that's said to be capable of creating planet-destroying weapons within just a few hours.
"You don't have anything in your subspace or anything that twists space-ti with, do you?" Seraselbes continued.
"None. I left everything behind as you've instructed, so I actually have my clothes, Benihi, and Tiamat with right now."
"Good. Because if you do, forget about reaching the other side." Seraselbes then turned to Mitsuya and raised her voice, "Navigator, it's your turn."
Mitsuya hurriedly ran towards the tallic cylinder and touched it with his Telos Karma. Blue lines of light appeared on Mitsuya's gauntlet first before they spread throughout the whole cylinder, "Done. As long as it's the correct world, you'll be guided accordingly."
Kisuke first looked at the very tight and uncomfortable cockpit before turning around to Yoruichi, Ophis, Lilith, and Flanna, "I guess this is goodbye for now."
Ophis and Lilith approached his left while Flanna went to his right before each of them grabbed his hands, "Boss, it probably won't be easy, but don't worry. I'll do my best not to do anything!"
" "No goodbyes." "
Kisuke didn't really know what to say to them and felt their aura entering his body, "Hmmm?" He then turned to Seraselbes and asked, "Is this alright?"
Seraselbes stared at him for a mont before answering, "...Why not?"
The three Dragons separated from Kisuke with big smiles on their faces and directly teleported away, not intending to watch him leave.
"...Just what did those guys do?" Kisuke murmured to himself and soon found himself wrapped around strong but delicate arms. He turned around and also wrapped his arms around the person who suddenly hugged him, "Think about it; we have a long life, so a few years or decades shouldn't really matter."
"Who's worried about that? I just don't know if I'll feel pity or not for the world you're going to. Without anyone holding you back, just what sort of ss will you create?"
"Geez! Please trust a little...!" Kisuke could only stop his complaints when Yoruichi sealed his lips with her own.
The two of them enjoyed the few seconds of warmth and peace before taking a step back from each other, "But oh well, those guys wanted to toss a hot potato on this side, so I say do your worst." Yoruichi gave Kisuke a huge grin.
Kisuke smiled and turned around to enter the cockpit that's only barely big enough for himself, "I don't think I'm that bad."
To their side, Mitsuya and Restoras were listening, "Hey... Do you think this is still a good idea?"
[Since we're already here... We can only regret now.] Restoras then extended his consciousness and reminded Kisuke, [Kisuke Urahara. Sealed in Telos Karma's power are my mories of this world. The mont you arrive, my main consciousness will receive these mories. However, I made sure I included your wishes of non-interference... Though I doubt he'll do anything after knowing what you're capable of doing even if I didn't include it.]
Kisuke nodded at Mitsuya and got in, the opening on the cylinder instantly closed, and not even a hint of it could be seen, making it look like just a simple pillar of shining tal.
Seraselbes didn't wait anymore and raised her hand. The next instant, a small tear in space appeared on top of the cylinder before the entire thing was instantly swallowed, leaving behind no evidence of its existence.
The people present watched as the tear in space nded itself, and only after a few seconds of its disappearance, Seraselbes loudly muttered, "I really hope he can reach that side alive... He'll probably lose a few limbs at best, though."
Mitsuya, Restoras, and Yoruichi could only gawk at Seraselbes after hearing that.
