"Forget it, they don't pose a threat for now. You two did well; I'll reward you handsomely when we get back."
Aozaki glanced at the small orb on the ground in the distance again.
Based on the memories he was recalling, if that Soul Candy wasn't destroyed, these Reigai would be immortal as long as there were materials.
Of course, the Soul Candy itself wasn't that powerful.
Because the two of them didn't understand Reigai just now and only focused on killing the bodies, they overlooked the fundamental essence of the Reigai, which was why this small, pill-like object remained.
"Next time you encounter a similar situation, remember to destroy that thing."
Aozaki chuckled, and everyone followed his gaze.
They saw a small, spherical object emitting a faint glow, as if speaking of its mystery and danger.
Everyone felt a premonition; this small item was clearly a ticking time bomb, and if not dealt with promptly, it could bring them more trouble.
Aozaki looked at the orb, pondering to himself:
"Although these Reigai aren't very strong, their Souls and Reiatsu are extremely similar to their original selves. They are troublesome after all."
Thinking of this, Aozaki decided that, out of his responsibility as the Captain-Commander, he would organize a training session on Reigai once he returned to Soul Society.
He wanted to give the team members a deeper understanding of the Reigai's characteristics and weaknesses, at the very least to make the people around him more prepared, so they wouldn't be fooled and even help count money for their deceivers.
The next second, a miniature Cero shot from Aozaki's fingertip, completely annihilating the Soul Candy.
The Ishida family had been skilled in medicine for generations, and the current generation even exploited family resources to open a large hospital.
After Masaki's body was thoroughly examined with special equipment, the six of them parted ways at the hospital.
Aozaki took Bambietta, Candice, and Masaki back to the mansion.
This time, they were not questioned by the police officers.
After all, with Aozaki's support, the Quincy's influence in the Human World was now vastly different from before.
In seven years, they could not only rule the entire world but also take down Karakura Town or even the entire island nation.
Even if the commotion from this battle couldn't be hidden, it was likely that the police officers would be suppressed by their superiors as soon as they received the notification.
Back at the mansion where the three women usually resided, everyone seemed completely unaffected by the Reigai incident.
Aozaki fulfilled his promise and prepared a lavish feast for Masaki.
Looking at the array of delicious food on the table, Masaki's eyes sparkled with excitement.
She unceremoniously picked up her chopsticks and began to feast.
Seeing this, Bambietta and Candice were not to be outdone, and they too joined the culinary feast.
They enjoyed the delicious food while laughing and chatting.
These women had lived with Aozaki for many years and were already very familiar with each other, without any barriers or reservations.
Their relationship was practically like that of close sisters, intimate and harmonious.
It must be said that Masaki's personality was very likable.
Even Bambietta and Candice, two difficult individuals, got along incredibly well with her.
What a powerful aura.
Even during a simple meal, Aozaki narrowed his eyes slightly.
The three girls in front of him were as enthusiastic about food as ever.
Speaking of which, their love for gourmet food was also trained by Aozaki himself.
To put it bluntly, the stomachs of these three women had already taken on his shape.
Over the years, he had painstakingly honed his culinary skills, using his exquisite techniques to spoil the palates of the three girls, to the point where Masaki sometimes felt troubled by it.
After all, Aozaki wasn't in the Human World every day; he also had to travel between Soul Society and Hueco Mundo, with large families in both worlds waiting for him to take care of!
"Reiji-nii, I'm full. Can we start considering the other matter now?"
Masaki looked exceptionally excited, her mouth full of food, making her voice sound especially cute.
However, her tone revealed a determination to not give up until her goal was achieved.
Aozaki, who had been through many trials in the Three Worlds for years, instantly perceived the urgency behind her words.
Although Masaki's living environment in her childhood was not ideal, she always maintained an optimistic and frank personality.
She had some similarities with Candice, but also subtle differences.
For example, she would express what she liked without hesitation, never dragging things out.
It wasn't that she disliked Uncle Soken and Brother Ryuken. Masaki clearly knew they were good people.
It was just that not everyone in the Ishida family was like them.
And over the years, Reiji-nii had indeed been too good; except for studying, he practically granted her every wish.
Recalling her past life, she realized that she truly couldn't live without Aozaki anymore.
"Reiji-nii, follow me."
Masaki's tone was firm and undeniable, leaving no room for discussion.
Bambietta and Candice immediately understood her intention, quickly cleared the dishes into the kitchen, and then greeted him with silly smiles.
"Bambietta-nee, Candice-nee, Reiji-nii is mine tonight, okay…?" Masaki announced with a serious expression.
"But… what about our reward?" Candice mumbled softly.
Although her heart was full of anticipation, this embarrassing matter made her too shy to say it out loud.
Just as Masaki was about to speak, a warm hand gently rested on her shoulder.
She turned her head and did not see any troubled expression on her Big Brother's face.
He looked calm, as if he didn't think this was a problem at all.
So she heard him say:
"I won't forget your reward, but tonight is really important for Masaki, so… I can only ask you to wait until tomorrow."
"Tomorrow… will it be over?"
Candice seemed to have thought of something, and with a silly, adorable look, she put a finger to her lips and couldn't help but ask.
"Candice-nee!"
Masaki's face immediately flushed.
Who was she looking down on?
Although she and Big Brother weren't officially married yet, they had actually been engaged for many years!
And she had lived in this house for so long; she wasn't some naive girl who knew nothing.
Darn it… I'll show you tonight.
However, since things had come to this, Bambietta and Candice could only agree.
No matter what, Aozaki was their master, and Masaki was their good sister; they couldn't possibly spoil their fun.
"Very good, since you've agreed, then that's how it will be. I've always been fair with rewards and punishments. Since I said I'd reward you, I definitely won't go back on my word."
Aozaki said with a serious expression.
Those who knew him knew that he always kept his word to his wives; what he promised, he never reneged on.
Of course, this was limited to his wives.
As for others, he would naturally trick them however he pleased.
This guy's moral bottom line had always been flexible.
"Masaki-chan, please lead the way."
Masaki's face showed a surprised expression when she heard this.
She hadn't expected this big brother to be so polite, his solemn expression as if a devout believer had met God.
She thought he would be more impatient…
However, when she thought that this might be his respect for her, her heart couldn't help but fill with even more joy.
So, she happily led Aozaki out of the room.
Leaving Candice standing in place, scratching her head, muttering to herself:
"This expression seems familiar… Ah, I remember! When it was my first time, wasn't he making the same face?"
As she thought about it, Candice couldn't help but feel sulky.
Bambietta walked into the kitchen, not thinking too much, her heart only longing for tomorrow to arrive.
