Death: This Death is not serious

The bright moon hung high in the sky, casting a cool light on the earth, and the Seireitei was completely silent.

The man in brocade and jade belt and the girl in ragged clothes walked side by side, strolling leisurely on the wide avenue.

The patrolling death gods noticed this strange pair and were about to step forward to check.

However, when they saw the man's face gradually becoming clear under the light, the leading death god immediately stopped the reckless patrol members.

On the wide street, Aozaki Mayuki looked at little Rukia beside her with interest.

She pretended to be calm, but her eyes showed curiosity.

It is hard to imagine that this little girl will become the captain of the 13th Division in the future, the playful and cute but majestic captain.

Little Rukia held Aozaki Mayu's hand tightly, looked up at his handsome face like an immortal, and asked curiously:

"Brother, are you a god?"

"God? At present, I am just an ordinary human."

Aozaki Mayu gently recited the god in little Rukia's mouth, and said with a smile on his lips.

He did surpass the dimension of ordinary souls, but he was not arrogant enough to think that he could stand shoulder to shoulder with the Soul King.

At this time, the Soul King was still the supreme existence in this world.

At this time, Aozaki Mayu suddenly remembered something, looked at little Rukia in front of him, and asked:

"Are you hungry? How about we go for another meal? I know a good restaurant."

After that, he gently stroked little Rukia's head.

Little Rukia's face suddenly turned red, and she seemed a little embarrassed. She shook her head and said:

"No... I'm not hungry anymore."

She recalled the days when she had been hungry for nine meals in three days, and sometimes she couldn't even eat a bite of food in a day.

Now, her little belly has been filled, and this feeling of fullness makes her feel extremely happy and satisfied.

At this moment, she finally believed that the adult beside her was not short of money.

Since entering the Soul Society, they have been looking for delicious food, and they have to stop to taste the local special snacks every time they walk a distance.

The adult seemed to believe the words of the proprietress, as if he was worried that he would starve to death.

Although she is indeed very hungry compared to others, she is not a bottomless pit!

She didn't understand that this feeling of hunger was not her shortcoming, but her talent.

Soon after, the two crossed the noble street and came to a magnificent mansion.

The mansion was solemn and dignified, revealing a noble and elegant atmosphere.

"This is your home from now on..."

Aozaki Mayu held little Rukia's slender hand tightly with his big hand and looked at her gently.

His eyes were full of love, as if he wanted to pass all the warmth to the girl.

"I will be your family from now on, just call me...brother, I like this name more."

Aozaki Mayu said softly, with a hint of pampering in his voice.

He knew what a real family meant to little Rukia, who had been an orphan since childhood.

"Brother..."

Little Rukia raised her head carefully.

A pair of clear eyes stared at Aozaki Mayu beside her, with tears flashing in her eyes.

Her voice was very small and soft, but it contained endless gratitude.

Since being sold to that tavern, little Rukia has lived in fear every day.

The beating and scolding of the plump woman made her eyes dark, and she longed to escape from that terrible place countless times.

This idea lasted for a long time, and she finally made up her mind to leave there.

And luck fell on her head at this time.

There was a person who not only took her away, but also was willing to become her family.

"Am I dreaming?"

Little Rukia couldn't believe what was happening in front of her.

She slowly put her little hand on Aozaki Mayu's cheek, feeling the warm temperature.

She murmured to herself, fearing that this was just a short dream.

"Of course not a dream."

Aozaki Mayu smiled slightly.

He gently pinched little Rukia's little face, feeling her delicate skin.

He combed her soft black hair with his fingers and said gently:

"You will be my family in the future. I will take good care of you and will not let anyone bully you again."

"Brother..."

Little Rukia felt the warm big hand of Aozaki Mayu, her heart was full of emotion and joy, and tears kept pouring out.

"Can I have a home..." she murmured to herself.

Aozaki Mayu looked at the fragile and strong little girl in front of her.

He gently wiped away the tears from the corners of little Rukia's eyes and comforted her gently:

"Don't cry, this will be your home from now on. With me by your side, you won't be alone anymore."As he said that, he picked up little Rukia.

He gently patted her back, bringing her a little comfort.

Little Rukia heard what Aozaki Mayu said, felt the warmth of this embrace, and her mood gradually calmed down.

She lay quietly in Aozaki Mayu's arms, enjoying this hard-won tenderness.

After a while, she fell asleep.

Aozaki Mayu looked at the sleeping little Rukia in his arms, and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

He carefully carried her into the room, put her on the bed, and covered her with a quilt.

…………

In the early morning, a touch of warm sunlight sprinkled on the couch through the window, and the soft and bright light gradually awakened the black-haired girl on the bed.

Rukia seemed to feel the bright sunshine. She was enjoying a good time in her dream, but suddenly her face changed and she sat up subconsciously.

"Oh no, I slept so soundly."

She opened her eyes hurriedly and said with a little anxiety.

"The boss lady will definitely lose her temper again."

She had experienced hardships in Rukongai and now became particularly smart and sensible.

In the past, whenever she got up late, the vicious woman would definitely hit her with a thin bamboo stick.

The thin bamboo stick hurt the most.

Although it hurts badly and looks scary when hit with a thick stick, it is still painful.

It hurts so much when the thin bamboo stick hits, as if it hits the bone.

However, the surroundings were unusually quiet at this time, and Rukia couldn't help but feel suspicious.

According to common sense, she should have heard the boss lady's curse at this moment.

But there was no sound today?

She felt very strange.

But soon, the memory of yesterday came to her mind.

The generous noble grandfather became her brother...

Rukia's expression suddenly changed when she recalled everything, and then she began to look around.

The luxurious and elegant furniture on the beams says it all.

This place is much better than the shabby hut she lived in before.

And the soft couch she sleeps on now is not comparable to haystacks and broken wooden boards.

But...

Looking around the surrounding environment, Rukia looked around anxiously with her smart eyes, as if looking for something.

She wanted to find someone...

However, after not finding what she was looking for.

Rukia hurriedly put on her shoes and rushed out the door impatiently.

"Hey, Rukia, you slept so late yesterday? Don't you want to sleep a little longer today?"

A soft voice came from the yard, which made Rukia stop.

About Rukia and the timeline.

I will briefly explain it to you based on the plot of comics, anime and official novels.

Kurosaki Ichigo appeared at the age of fifteen, and Rukia said that she was ten times older than him, which is about 150 years old.

So she should have been born in the middle of the 19th century.

The timeline of this book has already entered the 20th century.

When Rukia met the protagonist, she was at least 70 or 80 years old.

Next, let's talk about the timeline.

The plot of the original work, Hime and Byakuya, is 55 years before the main plot.

After the two lived together for five years, Hime died.

The second year after Hime's death, Byakuya found Rukia at the Maou Spiritual Academy.

Before entering the Maou Spiritual Academy, Rukia and Abarai Renji had already known each other and lived together for ten years.

So the original timeline should be,

In the middle of the 19th century, Rukia was born and her sister Hime abandoned her.

In the early 20th century, Byakuya Kuchiki graduated from the Maou Spiritual Academy and joined the Sixth Division.

(He was in the same period as Shiba Kaien and Ichimaru Gin. Aizen was the vice-captain of the 5th Division at the time and wanted to recruit him to the team, but he had to go back to inherit the family business so he had no choice but to give up.)

In the 20th century, Rukia and Abarai Renji met.

Four years later, Hime and Kuchiki Byakuya met in Rukongai and got married.

Five years later, Hime died.

A year later, Byakuya found Rukia.

I put the protagonist before Rukia and Abarai Renji met, and got to know Rukia in advance, so it should be okay...
