Chapter 72 Hohenheim's Creations, Pets, and Apprentices
Chapter 72 Hohenheim's Creations, Pets, and Apprentices
Through the name Yhwach, Rukia basically determined her current timeline.
If we really did travel through time, then this time would be at least a thousand years ago.
Because Yhwabach was active in only two eras.
One is the era Rukia lived in before, the 21st century.
The second is the era a thousand years ago, which was also the era when the Quincy first launched a war against the Shinigami.
Combining the previous memory fragments with the present Hohenheim and his knights, it can be concluded that the present is very likely to be a thousand years ago.
Could it be that because of the black tadpoles falling from the dark sky, I have traveled directly back a thousand years?
So...
Rukia suddenly had an idea!
If she could kill Yhwach in this era, could she have avoided two future catastrophes?
After having this idea, she wasn't even in a hurry to go back.
This Hohenheim seems to know Yhwach. Although we don't know who he is, we might be able to find Yhwach through Hohenheim.
Then we must wait until we become strong enough to nip this scourge of Yhwach in the bud in this era!
Moreover, after Hohenheim mounted his horse, he no longer carried Lucia in his arms, but instead placed her on his shoulder. Lucia, wanting to follow him to find Yhwach, clung to Hohenheim's shoulder and went with him to the palace.
As she saw more and more ancient things along the way, she became even more convinced that she was now a thousand years in the past.
Hohenheim was probably a minister or lord of some ancient kingdom.
After entering the palace, Hohenheim placed Lucia in the alchemy workshop and then left to see Charlemagne.
Rukia was left alone in the workshop. Her injuries had healed and her strength had been replenished. Although she was still weak, she could move around without any problem.
She looked at the room filled with fantastical colors, somewhat bewildered.
Hohenheim was definitely not an ordinary person, after all, he had just demonstrated a powerful healing technique, and with just a gentle touch, his injuries were healed.
People with such methods...
Is he a Fullbringer or a Quincy?
It should be a Fullbringer, right?
In Rukia's view, Quincy are all extremely hateful of Hollows, and Dark Dragon is ultimately a type of Hollow. If a Quincy recognizes her, they will only hunt it down, not decide to raise it.
By the way, I heard that there are no Grim Reapers in the Western Bureau, but rather magicians and witches. So this man might also be a magician.
Lost in thought, Lucia eventually climbed up to Hohenheim's notebook.
His notebook contained things that Rukia couldn't understand at all, just like Captain Nexus's notebook, which was obscure and difficult to comprehend. Was he a chemist?
Oh, no, this era should be called Alchemists, right?
"hello!"
Suddenly a voice came from beside her, startling Rukia!
Rukia quickly looked over and found a flask next to the notebook, with a dark, gooey substance inside.
Suddenly it grew eyes and a mouth, and said to Rukia:
"Our master went out and brought back Snow White. It seems we'll be colleagues from now on."
"!!!"
Rukia stared in shock at the black sphere. What was that thing?! How could it talk?
Rukia is quite knowledgeable; since arriving in Karakura Town, she has experienced battles against Arrancar, against Fullbringers, and against Quincy, but she has never seen anything like this before!
"You need not be afraid. I am just like you, a servant of the great Hohenheim, and also a Hohenmuk who will reach the truth."
The little man in the flask said to Rukia, "By following your master, you will become a being that surpasses all other fairy tale dragons!"
No, what exactly are you?
Rukia was initially shocked, but seeing that it seemed to be trapped inside the flask, she slowly accepted the situation. She walked over and circled the flask twice.
For some reason, she sensed a somewhat familiar spiritual pressure emanating from this dark, indistinct object.
But she couldn't quite put her finger on what she was familiar with.
Just as Rukia was pondering, the door suddenly opened again, and a young man walked in. He looked travel-worn, as if he had returned from a distant place.
Holmonx's eyes and mouth appeared in the corresponding doorway, and he said, "You've come at the right time, Yhwach. Our master has brought us new companions."
Yhwach?!
Upon hearing the name, Rukia's pupils dilated, and she immediately focused her attention on the boy in front of her.
The boy was about fourteen or fifteen years old, with black hair, and was very handsome.
He had a pair of red eyes, as captivating as red agate.
This is Yhwach?!
Rukia was shocked, and it was a little embarrassing to admit, because although Yhwach led the Quincy to attack Soul Society, Rukia had never seen Yhwach at all.
During the first invasion, she was ambushed and seriously injured. When she woke up, she had already been sent to the Spirit King Palace for treatment and training. She only learned from others that Captain-Commander Yamamoto had been killed by Yhwach.
During the second invasion, not long after she came down from the Spirit King's Palace, Yhwach went to the Spirit King's Palace, so the two essentially swapped places.
So Rukia only glanced at Yhwach in the pillar of light from afar when Yhwach ascended to heaven.
However, at that time, Yhwach appeared very old in her eyes, with a thick beard, completely different from the youthful boy in front of her!
It's hard to imagine that this little kid is actually the future Demon Lord who will threaten Soul Society.
Where is the teacher?
Then Yhwach revealed something that shocked Rukia: Yhwach actually had a teacher?!
"Master has just returned and is now going to pay his respects to His Majesty. Oh, and this is the pet Master brought."
Holmonx introduced Lucia to Yhwach, who was still in shock.
Wait a minute, Yhbach's teacher was Hohenheim?!
This was something she had absolutely no idea about!
In Soul Society, no one has ever mentioned that Yhwach had a teacher, right?
If Yhwach was so amazing, then who must have been his teacher?
And myself...
Now it's become Professor Yhwach's little pet?!
What on earth is all this?!
She couldn't let Yhwach grow stronger! This was a golden opportunity; she would kill him while he was still weak!
