I stealthily directed my puppet to hide inside an abandoned factory a few blocks away from my former house, reducing his activity to the minimum, I managed to make it almost undetectable.

Taking a deep breath, I returned most of my attention back to my main body.

I gently stroked Cirucci's purple hair as she slept soundly beside me.

In the last two days I had been playing around in Karakura town, she and Cyan sung-sun had taken advantage of my distracted mind, which was divided into two tasks at the same time, to have a dominant role during sex.

I didn’t mind it that much, after all, I was the dominant one most of the time and the occasional change in dynamics was good once in a while. However, I couldn’t help but feel annoyed as they were taking advantage of my divided attention.

I sighed once again, it was annoying, but I had more pressing matters to attend to.

My recent encounter with Ichigo had left me with a realization: I had been neglecting some of my abilities during fights. Despite being an arrancar, I rarely used my Hierro and Sonido.

I was simply faster than the other hollows and arrancar I had faced, so I never felt the need to use Sonido.

Similarly, my Hierro had been used only a few times. I was so fast that only Ulquiorra and Rukia’s mouth had managed to force me to use it, and I had used it unconsciously back then.

It was only now that I realized that this approach was flawed. Against stronger opponents, relying solely on speed would not be enough. It was obvious I was in need of some training.

With one last gentle touch, I brushed a strand of Cirucci’s purple hair away from her face and leaned in to place a soft kiss on her forehead. But as I stood up, my gaze couldn't help but wander to her perky behind, prompting me to give it one last playful squeeze before turning away, resolved to begin my training.

—---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Amidst my path, I ran into my Cyan Sung-Sun and Emilou Apacci.

“So, why are you going to train?” Sung-sun questioned me. Her smile showed her curiosity.

“During the last mission, I discovered I had neglected to train in the basics.” I explained, pointing to my body. “I had been training to reach the next stage instead.”

It was a bit awkward to explain, but that was it.

“Hmm, it’s obvious he is slow, Sung-Sun.” The tomboy Apacci interceded, her voice teasing. “He can barely focus without his witchy companion.”

I didn't let Apacci's teasing get to me. Instead, I noticed Sung-Sun's expression darken as she likely remembered the previous skirmish she had with Cirucci. “Cut it out, Apacci. Acidwire is one of our leaders for a reason. He just needs to work on his memory.”

“Whatever.” Apache said, bring both of her arms behind her head.

Fortunately, we have reached the training ground to my relief.

"This is where I fought against Nnoitra and Grimmjow the first time, and the second time… and the seventh time." I muttered, reminiscing about my battles in the area.

Anyway, it was a part of Las Noches that had a small team of low level arrancar tending to it all the time. Despite their efforts, the place was still in a state of disrepair.

Reaching the center of the area, I turned around and smirked at my companions.

"How about you two help me test my Hierro?" I said with a smirk. "I'm sure you're dying to try, Apacci."

"Hell yeah!" Exclaimed the tomboyish Arrancar.

Sung-sun smiled, clearly amused by our banter. "I won't hold back, you know."

“Sure.” I smiled, feeling sure of my power. “Come at me with everything.”

I willed my spirit to protect my being, creating a protective layer on my body.

Apacci could barely hold back a second. With all her might she jumped above us.

“Take this” She said, her sword positioned ready to stab me in the chest.

With a metal like sound, her sword rebounded back, almost slipping from her fingers as she stumbled back in surprise.

"Damn, you really are something." Apacci said, impressed. "I guess I forgot about your true strength with all that flirting you do."

“That was just your jealousy speaking, Apacci.” Sung-sun replied, hiding a giggle in her hand. “But there is something that has been bothering me for some time, Acidwire.” She said, turning to me with a quizzical expression.

"Why do you refer to zanpakutos as 'swords'? It's a bit strange." She questioned.

I pursed my mouth at that and directed my sight to the other side. "Well, zanpakutos is a bit of a mouthful. 'Swords' is just easier for me to say." I explained.

Her smile turned weird and dark at that. “I see, it’s another of your weird habits.”

She unsheated her sword, filling it with her spiritual power. Sung-sun seemed bothered by my response as she swung her sword at me.

I easily catched her sword with my hand without suffering a scratch.

“It seems, it won’t work huh.” She said, her smile dejected.

Apacci, not one to hold back, crossed her arms under her breasts and grumbled. "Tsk, he's just a lucky bastard."

I walked up to Cyan sung-sun and caressed her hair. “Don’t worry, I will pamper you later.” My confidence was oozing out of my body.

Sung-sun's expression softened at my touch, but she still managed to retort. "You better."

Ignoring Apacci's sour mood, I announced, "Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to run a few laps around Las Noches to test my Sonido."

I filled my feet with my spiritual power, feeling my muscles overflowing with power. With a big jump, I started to run around the place faster than I had ever done.

As I left Sung-sun and Apacci behind, I couldn't help but hear Apacci's voice shouting out. "I can't believe you like such a pervert."

Ignoring her comment, I focused on my training, on becoming stronger.

Aonte Here we get to see what our MC does to keep Sora’s influence at bay.

Omake: Groceries

Renato and Ikumi were carrying their groceries down the street. As they walked, they overheard a little kid talking to his mother.

“Look mom, that foreigner is harassing a pretty woman!” the child said, pointing towards Renato.

Ikumi felt her cheeks turn red as she looked at Renato. He was just as embarrassed as she was.

“Kid, that's not true!” Renato protested.

But the mother just gave him a disapproving look and hurried her child away.

Ikumi couldn't help but feel mortified. “I can't believe that just happened.” She said to Renato.

Renato just shook his head. “I guess it can’t be helped.” He said with a rueful smile.

Ikumi nodded in agreement. “Definitely. I can’t stop being a 'pretty woman'.”

They both chuckled, glad to have put the embarrassing incident behind them.
