Time passed slowly while Dylan slept like a little child from exhaustion and tiredness on Unohana`s soft lap, it might be the best sleep he had ever had since he arrived in this place.
He let go of everything, dropping all his caution to the ground as he enjoyed some good sleep as he knew that she was there beside him, a woman feared for her power and obsession.
After some good, nice sleep, Dykan`s eyes fluttered before he opened them slowly just to be met with a pair of giant mountains blocking his sight.
"Damn, they are huge." He muttered.
"Do you like what you see, dear Dylan~?" Suddenly a voice spoke snapping him out, but he didn't move or get up at all, he just stayed in his place.
"Well of course, I`d doubt my tendency if I didn`t appreciate such a sight." He said with a relaxed and calm expression.
Although he knew which woman`s lap he was using, he wasn`t afraid or surprised at all, as she was always like that, once she found someone who was worthy of her attention and time, she would treat him differently with an almost maternal aura seeping out of her.
The same happened with Zaraki as despite her character, she showed him a different treatment, more like she behaved like a mother to him and the same maybe was happening to him now, he was at least sure of that.
But what Dylan didn`t know was that this Unohana was slightly different from the one he saw in the anime, although she had a gentle maternal look on her face right now as she looked at Dylan, deep inside she was going crazy over him.
'A little more, a little more and I will have him for myself~ Ahhh Dear Dylan, get stronger quickly because I can't endure it much longer~'
'Once you are ready, let`s have our bloody battle where you either claim me or I claim you~ '
Dylan suddenly felt a shiver running down his spine making him shudder and feel a strange sense of dread.
'What was that? I think I felt a sudden sense of dread coming out of nowhere.' He thought before he shrugged it off.
If just he knew that what he felt was coming out of this woman who her lap he was enjoying, he would have run from the beginning.
(Author: Better take care of your V-Card brother or it will be snatched without you knowing and I will make sure of that.)
After laying on Unohana`s lap for some time, Dylan decided it was enough before he got up and stretched his body to get ready to continue his journey.
"You had enough?" She spoke.
"Yeah, it felt good, thank you…. umm do you have a name?"
"After all, I can`t keep talking to you without knowing your name, right?" He said as despite he knew her from the anime he watched in his past life, he couldn't just call her by her name, right? Things might get awkward for him if he did that.
"Well, I do not have one, since I existed, I didn`t have a specific name to identify myself with. Although I was called by many different names in the past, but I didn`t have one for myself." She said with a gentle serene voice which made Dylan contemplate a little while holding his chin.
"If you don`t have a name, then I can give you one…. That's if you doـــــ"
"I don`t mind at all, rather, I want you to give me one." She suddenly interrupted him making him look at her for a moment to notice an eager expression her face despite her still having the same serene smile on her beautiful, enchanting face which made him smile tenderly at her then said, "Let me think of one."
He pretended to think of a name for her while he had the name already in his mind, after all, he couldn't think of a name other than that name.
"I found it, how about Unohana, Unohana Yachiro." Once he said the name. She shivered slightly while a small blush adorned her face making her look more beautiful that Dylan was stunned and mesmerized for moment as he looked at her.
"Hm, I like it, thank you, dear~" she said with a tone that Dylan hadn`t heard before, a tone that seemed like a wife? Talking to her husband?
'Damn, what am I thinking? It`s impossible, right? After all, I still didn`t do anything yet.' He thought.
Then suddenly while he was busy thinking, he felt something soft on his cheeks snapping him out of his thoughts and looking at her with surprised eyes.
"This is a little reward for your hard work, then until we meet again, Dear~" then she turned into a buff of black smoke that seemed like silk going back inside his body.
He stood there for a moment, stunned before he touched his left cheek still feeling the sensation of her soft lips lingering on it.
"Fuck, I missed it." He muttered with a low voice before sighing and looking around.
"We sure did a mess." He said as he looked at the different cuts here and there messing up the surroundings, they varied in shape, depth and length.
After taking one last look, he left the place and walked ahead to a new, different area where he might face monsters far stronger than those he had faced before, which made him excited, especially after he stepped into that realm of swords, an entirely new realm after he had reached the top of sword arts and swordsmanship.
Once he stepped into that realm, he immediately knew how many stages it contained. Don`t ask him how he knew because he doesn`t know himself, it just feels spiritual.
The new realm had only three stages:
Stage One: Golden Emperor. With a wave of his sword, he could cut mountains into two easily.
Stage Two: Divine Soul. Your soul became a sword itself, you can send sword slashes through your soul to attack the opponent`s soul and cut it into pieces as you desire, also your sword attacks on the physical plane became deadlier and more destructive yet precise that it could cut continents in halves if you used all your power.
Stage Three: Sword God. There is nothing your sword cannot cut, be it earth, skies or even dimensions, as long as you have an intent, you can cut it, even planets can be cut with just a wave of your sword.
Those were the three stages of the new sword realm that Dylan stepped into, just achieving one stage would require intense practice and hard work more than ever, he would need to fight opponents far stronger than him by big leap just to progress.
'A battle to death, huh.' Dylan thought as he remembered his fight earlier with Unohana, it was a fight where his life was threatened all the time putting him under a pressure of being cut in half and die, but that pressure and life threatening battle made him progress faster in his swordsmanship, and for the new realm he figured he would need to fight battles like that or even more to be able to progress or else he would spend a lifetime to just to advance and he might not even achieve the first stage.
"Heh, that's amazing." He grinned as he thought of the life-or-death battles, he might encounter.
"A battle that will make your blood run cold." He muttered before he sighed and continued moving forward with a heart striving for battles.
Slowly, he was changing again from the inside, but did he care?
Of course. Not.
