Advertisement
Yato now woke up in bed as he had began is morning work out which didn't take him long but when it came to his running he had taken his time as it was now the summer time as he and Urahara have been working on a gate way to the soul society.
Since it was now the summer time Yato had alot of time on his hand so he would either be training, reading, or helping Urahara but Yato just now sat down under a tree that was outside of town he had looked over to the side to see the town getting ready for the firework festival.
Yato had simply looked up and watched as a few leaf's had began falling from the tree as a leaf fallen infront of Yato he had simply caught it in his hand and leaned back against the tree as he enjoyed the fresh air go through his hair.
Yato remembered all the times he would watch the fireworks on his father shoulders while his mother would always make him the best sweet Dango that he still till this day does not know who to make it taste just like the ones his mother made for him.
Yato would just look up at the sky and began whistling a settel and calming tone that he often would do when alone while surronded by nature as he would also be whistling to himself while he was traveling around.
After a while Yato had stood back up and finally make his way back home to see everyone was out and gone off doing something else that left Yato to his own devices as he had simply beagn cleaing around the house which didn't take him long.
Yato had then just left home and had decided to go to the park where the festival was gonna be held at so he decided to help out getting everything set up for the festival which many people appreciated.
As everyone in town mainly knows Yato and since being young would always help out around town which thanks to Yato help the festival was set up in under a few hours as Yato had then also helped set up the fireworks.
"Alright then thanks for the help Yato" an old man who had a diffuclty putting up his work stand which Yato had helped him out with and it didn't even take him long so he didn't mind a all.
"Here I have to give you something in returen" the old man said as he had started cooking.
"No it's fin-?!" Yato didn't get to finish what he was gonna say out of his mouth and Yato had looked and saw the old man had made fried eel with some noodles which Yato had started drooling at as he had then looked at the old man.
"Thank you" Yato said as he had began eating the food and he ate one bowl then two and then another second then six and after a few more minutes many people who didn't really know of Yato were just jaw dropped as now Yato had sixteen bowls on each side of him.
Yato had then put down his chopsticks and had then quickly grabbed a gallon of water and had then downed the whole thing in one gulp which then Yato had bowed as he had taken out his wallet and had given him eighty two thousand yen.
"No Yato I can't take the money Yato" the old man said.

"No please its fine I can't just give you nothing from eating all the deliocous food you made for me" Yato said which the old man just chuckled to himself.
"Man Yato your bottomless stomach no longer surprises me" the old man said as he has meet Yato when he was younger he had almost literly made the man close down as Yato had then turned around and seen the crowd of people with majority having their jaw dropped.
Yato had looked at the people and had came up with an idea to help out the old man "I highly recomend this shop it has really great eel" Yato said as he had then gotten up and walked off as he had walked off heading off to go and see if he could go do something.
Yato was now just walking down a side walk as he was simply whistling to himself while walking as he had decided to just walk and read as he had taken out his book and started reading as he had just began thinking of the first time he took Ichigo to his first firework festivel.
"Big brother wake up!" a young Ichigo cried out jumping on Yato bed trying to wake his elder brother up.
"Alright I'm up ok" Yato said as he had sat up out of his bed as Ichigo had jumped onto Yato back as Yato had easily picked up Ichigo and carried him down stairs to see his parents who were also starting to get ready for the firework festival.
"Oh your finally up Yato" Masaki said.
"Sorry mom I was up helping everyone yestarday set up for the festival" Yato said as he had helped set up the festivel last night so he had come home late last night but still he had time to play with Ichigo and when he had gotten to his bed he had quickly fallen asleep.
"Yato you must be hungry you want some breakfeast?" Isshin asked Yato.
"No I think Im fin-?!" Yato didn't get to finish his scentence as his stomach started grumbling which was loud enough people who were outside could hear it and just had one thought.
'What beast lives in there' were a thought of a man who was walking past while inside of of the Kurosaki house Masaki and Isshin was just chuckling to themselves as Masaki had already predictid this and had made him a whole table full of breakfeast which made Yato drool at the sight.
Before Isshin, Masaki, or Ichigo knew it Yato had devoured all of the breakfeast in an instant as Masaki just slightly chuckled at he son as Yato had simply gotten changed into his all black kimono which after then they waited and then had went to the firework festivel.
There were many things that they did and Yato even won a food eating contest eating a tub worth of ramen noodles in under thirty minutes after that the family had left the festival and had decided to watch from a destince as Ichgio had tugged on Yato side asking him to get a better look.
So Yato had simply picked up Ichgio and placed him on his shoulders as they all watched as the fireworks had gone off and started.
Yato now was just laying down realxing in the grass as he had heared a voice.
"There he is dad!" Karin yelled as Yato looked to the side to see his sisters and father with all three wearing kimonos also ready for the firework festivel which.

"Oh hey there you guys what have yall been up to?" Yato asked as he had sat up from laying down looking over at his family.
"We are looking for Ichgio now have you seen him?" Yuzu asked Yato who had began thinking.
"I'm pretty sure I saw him hanging out with his freinds want me to come help you solve the missing Ichgio case?" Yato asked Yuzu who had simply nooded her head as they all had started looking around for Ichgio.
After a while Yato could see Ichgio from afair with his freinds as Yato pointed down "Ichgio is right over there" Yato said as Isshin had yelled towards Ichgio direction.
"YEAH!!" Isshin yelled at Ichgio which Isshin, Karin, and Yuzu had then ran over towards Ichgio and had then jumped onto him and into some grass.
While Ichgio freinds watched Yato who had gotten behind of Ichgio freinds.
"Top of the morning to you" Yato said this made all of Ichgio freinds jump from suprise.
""""Sensei?!?!"""" The group screamed being caught off guard.
"Damn it's the summer time you can cut out with the sensei stuff we're outside of school so just call me by my regular name" Yato said.
As he had taken out a ice tea soda and began sipping on it as he looked down at his father and siblings as they began talking to each other.
Yato simply just chuckled to himself at his father calm yet wacky attitude as he simply followed them and he looked back at Orihime and Tatsuki.
"You two coming?" Yato asked.
"No we are gonna watch the fireworks from here sensei" Orihima said which Yato just shrugged his shoulders as he had walked off and followed his family.
Later in the night as the fireworks were about to go off and Yato was walking with his family home as Ichgio was carrying both Karin, and Yuzu on his back Yato had came up with an idea.
Ichgio before he knew it was up as he had looked down to see Yato was carrying Ichgio on his shoulders.
"W-What are you doing?!" Ichgio asked.
"What I thought you would want a better veiw" Yato said.
"Better veiw of what?!" Ichgio asked as Yato simply pointed up as Ichgio looked up to see the fireworks start to go off which were just beautiful.
Ichigo was just amazed as both Karin, and Yuzu started waking up as well and were so amazed at the fireworks.
"Still as beautiful as I remember" Yato said as he remembered the first time he watched the fireworks with his parents.
After the fireworks finished Yato still to Ichgio protest of Ichgio carried him on his shoulders while still Ichgio carried Karin, and Yuzu who had fallen asleep.
Once they had gotten home Yato had decided to go to Urahara shop and went to the bottom to see Urahara finally put the finishing touches on the Senkaimon.
The Senkaimon being a pathway that Upon arriving and leaving from the Human World, the Senkaimon can appear almost anywhere. When it appears in this fashion, the Senkaimon takes the form of a traditional Japanese waiting room entered through a Shōji.
It can be opened by using a Zanpakutō as a key. The method requires simply placing the Zanpakutō in front of the user and inserting it into the spacial area one wants the Senkaimon to appear before turning the sword like a key while declaring "Unlocking!".
As the crease of the door appears and fully opens, another door beyond it opens, releasing the Jigokuchō. Intruders can pass through the Senkaimon in the same manner. While this method uses the same gate, the lack of a Jigokuchō forces intruders to pass through the Dangai.
a bordering dimension between the Human World and Soul Society. This is much more dangerous to do, as souls who cannot pass through before the gate to Soul Society closes are trapped there forever.
"So Urahara you finally finished?" Yato asked.
"Yeah it should be done in a few more minutes but Yato I wanna talk to you about something" Urahara said as he looked over to Yato with a serious look.
Yato could tell that if Urahara is willing to call in a favor.
"What is it?" Yato asked wondering what Urahara needs.
Ichgio with orihime, Sado, Uryu and Yoruichi had all went to the soul society which after they left Urahara had looked to the side.
"You can come out know they are gone now you can come out now" Urahara said as Yato had walked out from behind of a rock.
"Welp I geuss it's time for me to get going" Yato said as he had then stretched into his pocket and had then taken out a glove.
This was no ordinary glove but kinda like the Senkaimon but not as Yato had created this glove to be able to open portals that can connect to many worlds and Yato had designed this glove to only work for him anyone else it wouldn't work and also unhackable.
As Yato had created this when he was younger at the solid age of seven this creation had impressed both Urahara and Yourichi.
The glove is able to access the soul society and easily into the Seireitei which Yato has been to multiple times by sneaking in without getting caught.
Yato had then opened up his fist and a portal also opened up a portal unlike the Senkaimon which took the form of traditional Japanese waiting room the portal Yato summoned was showing the Seireitei.
"I gotta ask why didn't you tell Ichgio and the others about this?" Urahara asked Yato.
"Well first it's summer so I'm not teaching right now, two this will be a good learning experience for them, lastly Ichgio and the others can't always think I will just give them the answers on a test they gotta do it themselves" Yato said.
Urahara just looked at Yato weirdly 'your still kinda teaching them' Urahara thought to himself he then reached into his pocket.
"Hey Yato remember what I need you to do"
Urahara said as he had then thrown Yato a flash drive which Yato easily caught.
"I got it already I'll get it done so don't worry besides I'm actually pretty hopefully their might beable to come across some captains and clash with them to see if they live up their titles as the "Thirteen Court Guard Companies"" Yato said as he had went through the portal which had immediately closed after he went through.
As Yato looked over the Seireitei which he had been to multiple times and always easily gets past security.
'Let's do this' Yato thought to himself as he went to go and start on the favor that he owns to Urahara then go and hoping to come across some strong opponent's that he could actually enjoy fighting.

Ars Magica
Our vision comes back into focus. Our eyes, while being able to perceive the immediate surroundings, still leave us with our minds uncomprehending towards what is actually occurring. Sure, there are definitive things that we can focus on, like the fact that we're either out upon the open sea or the open ocean, there not being much of a difference with no land in sight, as well as the fact that we appear to be upon a haphazardly constructed metal boat, whose seams are barely able to keep a hold of themselves in the crashing waves. However, that does not let us understand what exactly is causing the waves in the first place. If we were to rewind time, we'd find ourselves upon a calm sea under a peaceful sky with the only difference, being a small whirlpool that would be the precursor towards this uproar around the boat. Lightning flashes in the sky, with no clouds being near, and anyone actually manning the boat has either died towards the cause of the smashing tides in the first place, or are fighting amongst the flashes of lightning, all while trying not to become devoured, demolished, and utterly decimated by the beast roiling in the whirling waves. To better understand exactly what is happening here, there is one singular event that needs to be understood, that needs to be explained, and that is the arrival of a creature named Dave. Stepping back from current events and going towards this creature's first appearance in the world, we begin to hear the sound of water slowly dripping across rocky ground. The cavern is utterly silent except for this one constant, its cause feeding channels downwards, sloping towards cracks in the rubble along the floor from broken stalagmites and stalactites. And there, lying on top of something which had fallen over recently, judging from its cracks, is a person, the creature named Dave. His form is fast asleep, either from the impact or from an intoxication, judging from the smell upon its breath. A bright light suffuses into it for a second, giving life towards the pale skin, before it slowly dies down back to the comfortable black of the cave that it's within. Before this moment in time, Dave did not exist in the physical world. At least, not in the reality that he finds himself born into. We do not know whether or not his existence is simply a cosmic joke, or something that is being played out on purpose. All that we do know, is that one moment, the body was not in the cave, and simply formed in the next. The actual earliest time that we know Dave exists, is the interpolation of the memories of J-209, which we'll begin looking into shortly to gain context towards the coming narrative that is being written and hastily trying to keep itself written. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Warning: This story has several things which might turn its readers away. The first is that this story has shifting points of perspective. Don't worry about that previous sentence too much though, as the main character will always have a first person perspective associated with them. However, any other character from which we're viewing the story from will either be in third-person, as we are not necessarily in their shoes at the moment, or in first person, given that the narrator is an actual physical presence within the story. For the most part, chapters will be self-contained with their perspectives, so there will not be an abundance of switching perspectives within the same chapter. The most that an average reader would have to worry about is the fact that perspectives can switch between chapters. The second thing is that the main character is a bit on the 'special' side of things. He's not exactly mentally there most of the time, so there will be some times that his personality or his thoughts do not actively align with his actions. The third, and final thing of importance, is the fact that past the first couple of chapters, nothing has been planned in advance. There are arcs and plots that I want to do, want to implement, or have already been set into motion from our main character's introduction to the world, but the method that I use for my story writing and generating leads towards a bit more random chance being enabled. Basically...there's a lot of dice rolling behind the scenes. To not complicate the story further than its regular LitRPG elements, the rolls will not be publicly available. However, there will be knowledge within the author's notes on whether or not there were positive or negative critical rolls that had occurred within the chapter. You have been warned. Updates: Mondays & Fridays (Schedule permitting) Typical Chapter Length: (2,000-3,000)
