Chapter 20: Spiritual Academy
“Damn, my head hurts!”
Kimura Muyang drank too much last night because of the heat of the moment. Seeing the tidy room, he was trying to guess where he was and who brought him there.
As he opened the door, the blinding sunlight forced him to squint.
“Tsk, you’re finally awake.” Lisa’s displeased voice was heard right after Kimura Muyang pushed the door open.
“Oh, what time is it now? I have to go to the Academy.” Kimura Muyang immediately asked.
“Thank god you at least remember about that because the school already started while you’re asleep.”
“What!!”
The look on Kimura Muyang’s face changed once he heard what Lisa just said. Although the courses were basically optional, the thought of skipping his first day at the Academy left him speechless.
Seeing Kimura Muyang seemed at a loss, Lisa chuckled and then explained: “Relax, you’re not even a student there yet, so it doesn’t matter. I’ll take you there and explain your circumstances.”
“You will? How about Captain Kyōraku?”
“Hmph!” Lisa grunted, “Are you saying that I can’t handle it?”
“That’s not it. I’m just asking what happened to Captain Kyōraku, that’s all.”
Lisa, who seemed even more annoyed, just said, “follow me” as she walked away.
Kimura Muyang was kind of hungry, but he dared not ask about breakfast after seeing Lisa was in such a bad mood even though he didn’t know what he did wrong, so he just followed her while keeping his mouth shut.
“Damn, where did that good-for-nothing Captain go? Not only did he shove every division-related affair to me, but he also asked me to take this guy to Shin’ō Academy. Just wait and see, I’ll find all of your sake and drink it myself!”
Kyōraku Shunsui, who was lazing around on the roof, suddenly felt an ominous wind, “What’s that ominous feeling just now? Screw it. I’ve got Lisa-chan to take care of everything. How fortunate I am to be blessed with a capable subordinate.”
Kyōraku Shunsui was lazing around without knowing that the capable subordinate he just mentioned planned to teach him a lesson.

“Is this Shin’ō Academy?”
Kimura Muyang was in awe once he laid his eyes on the building in front of him. This was the place that gave birth to most skilled Shinigamis in Seireitei. Almost all of Gotei 13’s members graduated from this Academy. It was the cornerstone of Soul Society. The thought that crossed his mind made him admire Yamamoto Genryūsai even more because he was the founder of this Academy.
“Come on. I will take you to Vice Headmaster and explain your situation to him.”
“You even know the vice headmaster? That’s amazing.” Kimura Muyang pretended to be amazed.
Lisa just glanced at Kimura Muyang without saying anything before she walked away.
Kimura Muyang immediately shut his mouth as she couln’t afford to make the situation even more awkward. Kimura Muyang barely had any experience with women, be it in the past or present life, so he didn’t really know what Lisa was thinking. Women were fickle creatures to begin with

“Finally took care of that guy’s business, and I’m almost done with the division-related affairs. I guess it’s time to find those good sakes that Captain hid and drink it with Shinji.”
Lisa seemed to be in a good mood after taking care of Kimura Muyang’s registration as she planned what she would do once she got back.
“Hm??”
Lisa caught something in her peripheral vision and stepped back to make sure. As she looked to the right, the veins on her head instantly bulged.
“Asuka! So this is where you’re lazing around!!” Lisa said while gnashing her teeth.
The person that Lisa called was leaning against the wall, dozing off. However, he suddenly lifted his head and wiped his drool: “Why is it so cold even though the sun is still high?”
Lisa couldn’t contain her anger any longer. She had to do everything while her Captain was slacking off, and now she even found that Captain’s subordinate was also slacking off.
Lisa immediately drew her Zanpakuto and slashed the man who leaned against the wall.
“This bloodthirst…!” The man’s eyes were wide open all of a sudden, and he immediately rolled to the side, dodging Lisa’s strike. He wanted to say a piece of his mind, but once he saw Lisa was the one who attacked him just now, he was ready to run away.
“I dare you to run. Let’s see if you can dodge the next one” Lisa’s warning stopped him in his tracks.
The man named Asuka was on the verge of tears as he turned around and called out Lisa’s name.
“Hmph…” Realizing Asuka had no intention to escape anymore, Lisa sheathed her Zanpakuto and blew her fist as she walked towards him.
Seeing Lisa had no intention to spare him, Asuka was even more terrified, “Can you at least not hit my face?” Asuka pleaded.
“You should’ve known better.”
“Pa pa pa pa!!!”
“Aaaaahhhhhhhhh”
After beating up Asuka’s face to her heart’s content, Lisa dusted off her hands and said casually: “I can at least let you rest for two days now after seeing that face of yours. If you run again the next time you see me, you’ll know what’s coming. You can run, but you can’t hide.
Asuka couldn’t do anything except gently stroking his beaten up face while watching the smug on Lisa’s face.

“Captain-Commander has already explained everything. You’ll be starting from First Grade, but Captain-Commander mentioned that you would be graduating with 6 other students next year. That being said, there are only 9 months left, but since Captain-Commander said so, he must’ve had his reasons.”
“Huh??” 9 months? Are they trying to set a record or something? Even Shirō-chan, Dabai and Ginzi graduated in one year. No one has graduated in 9 months so far.
Kimura felt like a genius for skipping grades.
“Okay, your dormitory and other stuff will be taken care of by someone else, so you may go.”
After half an hour…
Kimura Muyang put on his Shin’ō’s Academy uniform and looked at himself in the mirror. Kimura Muyang had mixed feelings. It has been about 30 years since he came to this world, and now he finally arrived at Shin’ō Academy and became Shin’ō’s student, and eventually became an official Shinigami in 9 months.
As Kimura Muyang looked at himself in his academy uniform, he realized that he missed school and his life as a student. He looked forward to it even though he didn’t know how Shin’ō’s education system worked
Moreover, he would be dubbed as a super genius who would graduate in 9 months, which was really unprecedented in the history of Soul Society. Although it didn’t match with his low-key principle, he couldn’t help but find himself drowning in pride.
