LIGHTNOVELWORLD Chapter 18: Going fishing
Although after some consideration, Arima chose to accept Sōsuke as his disciple, he still had to give Sōsuke the necessary warnings.
Ever since, Arima said the words that were not straightforward yesterday.
That is, don't bother him every few days.
One month, well, one month seems too long.
Just once every half a month is fine.
After all, now Sōsuke has become his master, and he has accepted Sōsuke as his disciple.
The teaching time is set after my calligraphy class.
Anyway, Sōsuke is also very interested in calligraphy. It will be a good setting to teach him calligraphy first and then answer his many questions after class.
After hearing Arima words, Sōsuke also realized why yesterday, Arima-sensei, no, now it should be said why the master emphasized those words.
It turns out that I come here for advice too often.
The master was a little annoyed.
However, Sōsuke still has no regrets about being under Arima as his disciple.
Among all the people he has met over the years, Arima was the first person who attracted his sincere respect and desire to learn from him. Arima agreed to accept him as his disciple, and he was sincerely happy.
As for what Arima said, he would give him guidance twice a month, and Sōsuke readily agreed.
After the apprenticeship was over, Arima sent Sōsuke out again.
Sōsuke didn't have too many questions today. He had already asked all his questions yesterday, and Arima also gave him answers.
After Sōsuke left, Arima looked at the fishing gear sent by Sōsuke again.
It's rare to get new fishing gear, so it seems a bit unreasonable not to try it out.
So Arima decisively took the fishing gear and left the Academy.
He came to the small river near the 13th Division and started fishing.
Arima had gone fishing several times before, and he had gained something each time, so now he considers himself an experienced angler.
However, this time, after fishing for a long time, I got nothing.
"It must be the fishing rod Sōsuke gave me."
"Right, that is it."
People often find reasons for their failures.
Arima is also such a person.
Either there are no fish in the water, or there are other reasons.
He has fished here before and caught fish, so if the former reason can be eliminated, it must be the latter. It just so happened that he tested the brand new fishing rod given by Sōsuke as an apprentice gift today.
It's obviously the reason for this fishing rod.
After figuring out the reason, Arima's mood immediately improved a lot.
Anyway, as long as it's not your fault, that's fine.
In my heart, I couldn't help but label Sōsuke as "troublesome". Not only was he annoyed by so many problems, he even gave me a fishing rod that couldn't catch fish.
"It seems that there is no harvest today, so we can only forget it like this."
Arima comforted himself like this and was about to leave.
At this moment, a frivolous voice sounded in his ear, "Hey, isn't this our calligraphy teacher at Spiritual Arts Academy, Arima-sensei. Are you fishing?"
Arima heard this and looked up. Sure enough, besides Kyoraku Shunsui, who else could say such frivolous words?
"Kyokyo, it's you!"
"Why did you come here in your spare time?"
Kyoraku Shunsui's body flashed for a few times, and with the help of Shunpo, he easily came to Arima's side, "I was going to visit Jushiro, but I didn't expect that Teacher Arima-sensei actually fish here."
As he spoke, Kyoraku Shunsui swept the bucket Arima placed beside him again.
It's empty inside.
"Arima-sensei seems to have gained nothing."
Arima was not angry, "I brought the wrong fishing gear when I went out today. The fishing gear didn't work, so I didn't harvest anything."
"Really?" Kyoraku Shunsui didn't expect that Arima would say such a thing seriously, and looked at Arima with more and more interest.
Arima felt Kyoraku Shunsui's gaze and emphasized one thing emphatically to Kyoraku Shunsui, "Although it is true that I am a teacher at Spiritual Arts Academy now, I have not taught you, so you don't need to call me teacher. "
Kyoraku Shunsui smiled and said: "This is no good.
No matter what, you are an old-timer.
In the past, I could call you the captain.
Now that you have left Gotei 13, it is difficult to call you the captain anymore.
Of course I have to bring some honorifics. It's better than calling you by your first name."
"Why not call me by my first name?" Arima asked back to Kyoraku Shunsui.
"In the final analysis, a name is just a code name. Why do you need to add an honorific to it?"
"Just like I call you Kyokyo, you call me by my first name. This is a fair thing in itself."
"All you care about is that I am older than you."
"But you neglected it. Shinigami's life itself is very long. When you and I can only live for a thousand years, it may be a great thing for me to be hundreds of years older than you. But if you and I can live for Ten Thousand Years, hundreds of years are nothing."
Kyoraku Shunsui was also a little surprised when he heard Arima's words, "So is this how you view the problem?"
"As expected of a senior, his vision is really broad."
"However, Ten Thousand Years is still unlikely. At least, as far as the Shinigami I know, there are very few people who can serve as the captain of Gotei 13 for more than a hundred years. For Shinigami, if he wants to live a stable life, it is An extremely difficult thing to do."
Arima remained silent and ignored Kyoraku Shunsui's sigh.
Kyoraku Shunsui said to Arima again: "Senior Arima, you didn't gain anything today anyway. Do you want to go visit Jushiro with me?"
"When he was a boy, he admired you very much."
Because Arima did not let Kyoraku Shunsui call him teacher, Kyoraku Shunsui changed his name in a short time. He still did not call Arima by his first name. This was also disrespectful to someone who had made great contributions to Seireitei. Senior.
Therefore, the title "Senior" is very good.
"Jushiro?" Arima's eyes flickered and he accepted Kyoraku Shunsui's invitation, "Since you said so, it seems a little unreasonable if I don't go."
Then, Arima put away his fishing gear and followed Jūshirō Ukitake towards the Thirteenth Division.
