Chapter 1105 The 5th Division

After making sure that they could keep a tight lid on their Reiatsu, Kisuke disguised himself to appear like an old man and brought them to the booth, "Excuse me, good sir, I'd like to enroll my daughters in the Spiritual Arts Academy. Is this the right place?"

The lethargic Shinigami manning the booth peaked at them and yawned, "That's right. But the general examinations are already over. Go back next year."

"But I heard you can enroll all year round?"

The Shinigami shook his head, "Only for special individuals, old man. Go back and try again next year." Since he could hardly feel any Reiatsu from the black-haired twins, he assumed that they were just normal applicants.

"B-but we've come from quite a far distance so we can't really go back like this. I assure you that my daughters are special so can you please consider them?"

The Shinigami looked at them silently for a few moments before sighing in defeat. He's already manned this booth for more than a decade and he already came across people like this group. From his experience, it's better to entertain them now and show them that their kids are not special, "Fine. Release your Reiatsu. Depending on its amount, it'll be decided if you'll be granted an exception."

'Who am I kidding?' Thought the Shinigami, 'Those who enroll in the academy can't even control the release of their Reiatsu. If one could control it, they are already half done with the entire curricu-- !?'

But before he could finish his thoughts, a pressure so heavy that he almost smacked himself into the ground descended upon him and his immediate surroundings, 'They're limiting their Reiatsu!? And this pressure, at least Lieutenant level!?'

The Shinigami immediately stood up and hurriedly told them, "Stop! That's enough!"

Ophis and Lilith reeled back their Reiatsu and let the poor Shinigami catch his breath, "W-what's your name?"

"Ophis." "Lilith."

The Shinigami managed to calm his breath and feigned a cough, "Ophis and Lilith. Strange names around these parts but that doesn't matter. I'll bring you inside to get you further tested. If nothing is amiss, you'll be placed in the accelerated class."

With the only one left alone, Serafall cleaned the house for a few minutes before leaving for her usual patrol in an attempt to understand more of the world. If she wanted to learn more, there was nothing better than looking around during a crisis.

'Should I go to that place where most of the pseudo-Demonic Power is gathering?' Serafall doesn't know how Kisuke's accomplice will contact her but it's better for her to take the initiative and set the negotiation table to her advantage.

Establishing her plans, Serafall decided to go to the neighboring city, Naruki City, west of Karakura Town and her exact destination is a park.

As Naruki City is a large commercial area, there are a lot of people moving about within the urban jungle, but when she reached the wide park, there were almost no people aside from those who were walking their pets. Serafall was able to pinpoint several points of pseudo-Demonic Power gathering but she ignored it for now and turned her attention to the numerous Shinigami patrolling the area.

Serafall sat down on a bench and her eyes landed on the man with brown eyes and jaw-length blonde hair with a straight cut wearing a white robe over his Shihakusho, 'The 5th Division. Shinji Hirako, I believe? It looks like they know that something big is coming in this area.'

After some time observing their movements, Serafall is sure that they still couldn't detect the existence of the pseudo-Demonic Power, however, they could still predict the appearance of these 'doors' through the movement of the Spiritual Power itself.

But as time went on, Serafall couldn't help but frown, 'Why are they not setting up a ward to remove people?' It was then that Serafall recalled a list of articles she read in her free time about a sudden mysterious death that seems to be choosing people at random, 'Wait... Could it be that they can't ?'

Serafall looked around one more to her surroundings and saw normal people blissfully unaware of what danger they are in right now.

"Tch." Clicking her tongue in frustration Serafall decided to intervene a lot earlier than she had planned, "I just can't ignore this, can I?"

Though before she made her own ward, Serafall needed to confirm if they really can't do it. And since she may come off as threatening if she just suddenly appears around them, she needs to grab their attention from afar, 'I can't directly call their Captain... In that case...' Her eyes landed on the girl who was wearing the 5th Division's lieutenant armband and is currently directing the other Shinigamis.

Serafall conjured an ice ball as big as a coin and launched it toward the Lieutenant.

"!?"

Thanks to the Lieutenant's heightened guard against enemies they couldn't easily detect, she was able to detect the ball of ice just before it hit her and moved out of the way. She hurriedly turned to the origin of the 'attack' and saw a beautiful twin-tailed girl waving her hand at her with a big smile, "That is..."
