Chapter 315: Kansomei
Let's rewind the time to a minute ago.
"I... failed?"
Lod, who had been corroded by the sea of blood into a ghastly white bone, could no longer muster any strength.
The loss of a large amount of blood and Spiritual Power caused the temperature of his body to drop rapidly, and his consciousness gradually faded away from him. The noisy and noisy world seemed to have quieted down, and everything in front of him was shrouded in darkness.
"So... this is the feeling of defeat..."
"Is this power... the first generation 13th Division Captain... has?"
"She is really powerful... I am too far away from her..."
"I can't accept it... I really... I can't accept it..."
"I don't want to win just yet, but... I don't want to lose!"
"So, please... please, my body... Hold on a little longer!"
Lod's pupils gradually slackened, and his consciousness sank into the boundless darkness. The scenery in his line of sight became blurry, and his heavy eyelids became more and more difficult to support. His life was about to dissipate like a candle in the wind.
...
...
...
He didn't know how much time had passed.
In the hazy haze, Lod's consciousness gradually began to recover.
The cold and warm liquid wrapped around him, as if he was soaking in the slow flow of water. The warm and comfortable feeling made him a little addicted for a moment, unwilling to open his tired, heavy eyelids.
He was really too tired...
In the process of fighting against Unohana Yachiru, he needed to be in a highly concentrated state of mind. Otherwise, if he was a little careless, there would be another wound on his body, and he would have to bear the pain of a large part of his flesh being melted.
But even though he gritted his teeth and forced himself to hold on,
He pushed his will to the limit and finally ended up in a failure.
After removing all the burden, Lod only wanted to have a good rest.
But unfortunately, things did not go as he wished.
"How long are you going to sleep?"
The clear and melodious voice of a woman rang in Lod's ears, neither fast nor slow. It was obvious that she did not want him to continue sleeping.
"Someone is calling me again... Who is it?" Lod forced himself to open his eyes, exhausted.
However, the scenery that entered his eyes was an endless ocean!
A gentle breeze brushed against his face, causing ripples to form. The seawater in his line of sight was extremely clear, like a huge natural mirror, reflecting the blue sky above his head!
Everything seemed so harmonious.
The blue sea and the blue sky, which was enough to be called the ultimate scenery, were simply like a paradise described in textbooks that stood aloof from worldly affairs. It made people unable to help but be fascinated, as if there was an invisible force that soothed his restless heart.
"You finally woke up."
Lod heard the sound and looked over, only to see a woman walking on her snow-white slender feet, crossing the blue sea surface.
As the woman approached, her originally hazy face gradually became clearer.
A head of silky black hair hung down her waist. Under her slender phoenix eyebrows were eyes that were as bright as the morning stars. Her straight nose and cherry pink lips outlined a perfect face. Her skin was as flawless as suet white jade. Even if she wore simple clothes, it was still difficult to hide her elegant and noble temperament.
"You... Who are you?"
Lod frowned. He had no memory of this woman.
Although he was not very interested in women, if he had seen such a beautiful woman, he should have left a deep impression. It was definitely not that he could not remember her at all, so he was sure that he had not seen her before!
"Ah... You have clearly come here, but you still can't remember my name?" The woman frowned slightly, and an imperceptible displeasure flashed through her eyes. Combined with her beautiful face, there was an indescribable beauty that made people feel pity for her.
"Your name?" A hint of pain appeared on Lod's face. Countless memories were crushed into pieces in his mind. The scenes flashed by quickly, and then a flash of light suddenly flashed. "Could it be that... you are my zanpakuto?"
"So what if I am?"
The woman was expressionless and said cynically, "Death God, who can't even remember his Zanpakuto's name, might as well give him a light beating."
This gaze filled with resentment...
Lod instantly felt numb, and the corner of his mouth could not help but twitch. He finally knew why he had been disliked.
Zanpakuto and death god were one with one heart. The two belonged to one another, and they were even more so the things that he prayed for in the depths of his soul. The form that was presented after the materialization could be said to be the closest existence in the world.
However, he could not remember her name. This kind of behavior was as bad as forgetting what his wife was called after marriage.
If he forgot what his wife was called, what would happen in general, and when it was brought into the relationship between death god and zanpakuto, he could probably understand Lod's mood at this moment.
If it was a zanpakuto who had a bad temper, he was afraid that he would have no hope of Shikai in this life!
However, the only good news was that after the incident with Constantine, Lod had been frequently doing sword meditation, and had been persistently kicked out, but as the number of times he was kicked out, now his zanpakuto was finally willing to see him!
This was a great improvement!
At least it was better than being kicked out of the spiritual space without even seeing it in front of him.
"Sorry..."
Lod took a deep breath and apologized sincerely, "I have always ignored your voice and even left you to the side. This is all my fault. I have wronged you."
Regardless of whether it was useful or not, at least his attitude of admitting his mistake had to be upright.
This was zanpakuto, who belonged to him. Unlike zanpakuto who was given to him by other systems, Lod was more willing to believe her from the bottom of his heart, because this was equivalent to believing in himself!
After the woman heard this, there was a faint moisture in her eyes.
"I won't beg you to forgive me now..."
Lod slowly walked towards the woman. He only stopped in front of her when he arrived. His eyes were filled with sincerity as he slowly said, "I didn't know that you existed in the past, so I ignored you. This is my fault. I won't deny it or find excuses."
The woman lowered her head and listened quietly.
"I can't give you more promises. The only thing I can promise you is that I will no longer ignore your voice and forget your existence in the years to come." Lod's clear and bright eyes were like a dazzling ray of light that pierced through the haze that shrouded the woman's heart.
"Then are you willing to accompany me until the end of time? Even if the world is destroyed, you will not let me go?" The water vapor in the woman's beautiful eyes roiled. I looked at Lod with pity. There was a trace of expectation on her beautiful face, waiting for his answer.
"I am willing."
Lod nodded heavily and promised the woman, "Until the end of time, when the world is destroyed, we will still be together."
Buzz!
The endless sea was full of surging waves, and the blue sky was full of clouds!
"Please advise me in the future."
The woman smiled and hugged Lod with her flawless jade arms. She whispered in his ear,
"Call me. My name is..."
