(Ryoto's pov)
Another 2 months had passed, and we were about to leave and start our travel to the 1st district. Right now, we were packing our things. We didn't have much, so we mostly packed food that we bought for our journey. We also had so clothes but nothing more except the ones we will be needing.
As we were about to leave the house and say our goodbyes to everyone we knew in the 78th district, we took the last look at our ho.
Rin: "I will miss this place."
I put my arm around her and pulled her closer as she rested her head on my shoulder.
Ryoto: " too, but a new chapter will start this very mont."
Rin: "I know."
We stayed like this for a while. It was kind of hard to leave a place you called ho for over half a year, but I know we will be safer inside Seireitei... for a while. If I'm correct, then we have around 300-400 years until canon. Maybe 200 years. The tiline isn't that clear. Yoruichi seems to be in Shinigami academy, and I know that she was captain 110 years before canon and Tessai Urahara's friend and shop helper, ntioned that the na Quincy was familiar to him. I know that Quincy's extermination happened approximately 200 years before canon, so they must be over 200 years old, and since Urahara, Tessai and Yoruichi are childhood friends, they must be around the sa age.
Aizen started his plan about 150-200 years ago. It's difficult to tell, but it's my best guess. That ans that unless I'm wrong about the tiline, I have at least a century for to grow stronger as fast as possible. After that, I need to be careful about Aizen. I'm not scared about his illusions as I would be immune to them, but even without them, Aizen is a terrifying opponent. What's worse, I can't even remove him from the picture because he is essential in the future. Without him, there's a chance that Ichigo won't even be born, and he is needed against the Quincy boss.
My quest is to survive until the last boss is defeated by or soone else. The last boss is probably referring to Yhwach. I'll try to kill him before he ultimately resurrects, but it's not possible for for a long ti.
First, I would need to find him, which is already a problem. I am aware that all of Yhwach and his allies are hiding in the shadow of Seireitei, but what does that an? Is that so kind of Quincy technique? Machine maybe? I don't know, and I'll need to research it but I would rather dump it on soone who knows what he is doing, but it would be difficult to explain to them how I know what I know. I would need to plant so hints here and there so they would figure it out by themselves, but how?
The other option is to get stronger than Yamamoto, Kenpachi, Aizen, or Ichibe.
...
Planning it is.
I'm not delusional enough to believe that I could beco stronger or even equally strong to at least one of them. The problem is that I also don't think that I'm smart enough to plan out everything as I want. Not to ntion that there are geniuses here that could see through . Aizen, Urahara, and Unohana have scary instincts, and Yamamoto is wise but stubborn, just to na a few.
In summary, the plan is not that complicated. Get stronger, figure out how to hint about Quincies, don't be suspicious or dangerous, so Central 46 tries to kill or imprison , and don't get fucked by Aizen.
It's not going to be easy, is it?
*Sigh*
Before we started traveling, Rin and I said our goodbyes to residents of the 78th district. Those we know, at least. This included our co-workers, so clients, and the kids that were our accomplices in stealing. I gave them so candies as lollipops weren't invented yet.
Sad. It was my coping chanism as well.
At least I can still make delicious food to make my mood better. Not to ntion if Rin is safe, then it's enough for .
The family that lived with Rin was still scared of and avoided , not that I cared.
We lived here for about 7 months. A pretty long ti, but it will be short in retrospect.
Since we have 2 weeks before recruiting begins, we can save so money by going on foot to the 1st district. It can also double as a fun trip for Rin as long as I'm careful.

On our trip, I made sure that Rin enjoyed herself. We went through many beautiful forests, stopped near so rivers, saw a few lakes and surprisingly a lot of animals.
We also stopped at a few districts to refill our food supplies, but we slept under the naked sky. Even if we didn't want to save money and stay at an Inn, we could ask so people to use their stable or empty room, but it didn't matter since I didn't plan to drop my guard either way. Just like I used to do in the abandoned house, I had Zangetsu near to wake up in case of trouble.
Why did I choose to sleep in nature away from people then if there's no difference?
Because camping could be fun and I could save money on food as well. I fished, I hunted, and I cooked. It was an enjoyable ti, and looking at Rin, I knew that she had fun as well.
At that ti, a small thought crept inside my head. What if Rin and I just kept living like that? In the wild, I an. Far away from all the trouble, people and danger.
I quickly dismissed this thought. It would not only be not healthy for Rin in the long run and it would an that I killed Yan Fon for nothing. In that case, her death would weigh even more than it already is.
---
Finally, after two weeks, we arrived at the 1st district. The fee was hefty, and since Shinigami academy was recruiting at the mont, they increased it. It looks like corruption is high in more luxurious districts. It also seems counterproductive. There are so powerful Shinigami who co from poor backgrounds, and that way, Soul Society loses a lot of potential strength. It's possible they'll fix it in the future since otherwise, Rukia and Renji wouldn't be able to co and take a test unless they sneaked in.
Maybe it was Kenpachi who beca captain, or after getting Mayuri out of Nest of Maggots, they started understanding the importance of people with poor backgrounds but great potential.
The other explanation has to do with Quincy's extermination. It's possible that there were a lot of casualties, and they needed to fill empty places.
I will just need to see.
But enough theories. Rin and I are standing in a line to start a test to see if we can beco Shinigami.
