Chapter 1133 Cornered Kazui part 2
"Ichigo... I think we should listen to Kon-chan." Inoue was the first one to cave in to Kon's pleas.
Ichigo sighed, having the same thoughts, however, "But it's too dangerous. We don't know what might happen the longer we're in the dark. Kazui, I know that your promises are important, but you're important to us too. Right now, you're involved in something very dangerous and we won't know how to protect you if we don't know anything."
But even after Ichigo's words, Kazui remained silent. As he is just a very young and innocent boy, he really couldn't understand his parents' words, especially since he doesn't see the danger they were talking about. In fact, he was in a very friendly relationship with 'Hell' so he couldn't acknowledge their words even at face value.
Everyone didn't realize it, but from Kazui's point of view, they are just badmouthing his very good friends. Even then, he refused to speak as he also didn't know how he'll keep his promises if he was to tell them anything, bringing him a dilemma that his young mind shouldn't be thinking about in the first place.
Seeing the complicated expression he's making, Chad also chimed in, "Ichigo, let's not force him. For now, let's be grateful that we found out about this, and would allow us to prepare for what might happen."
"I also trust Kon's judgment." Uryu added, "While he likes to play around, he knows what's dangerous or not."
Renji, who just intended to bring Ichigo's group the detector that came from the Research Institute, scratched his head, "You guys are too lenient... Oh well, I could understand where you're coming from. So what should we do now?"
Inoue wanted to bring Kazui back to his room to comfort and bring him to sleep since it was already quite late when the radio-like device on the table that was the source of this gathering suddenly started alarming with blaring sounds.
"What is it now?" Ichigo immediately asked and took out his Substitute Shinigami Badge in case they had to fight.
Renji immediately took hold of the device while saying, "It's the alarm that goes off whenever there's a very large door and probably an Arrancar that's about to come out."
At the same time, the doorbell of the Kurosaki household rang.
"..." All became quiet as they wondered who was ringing the door at this hour, "I'll take it." Ichigo stood up.
Ichigo stood up and Renji tried turning off the alarm while the rest prepared to fight in case Soul Society didn't send anybody in time to intercept the 'door'.
But when Ichigo opened the door and peered outside, he saw a very unexpected guest.
"Hi~ Good evening. I'm sorry for suddenly showing up at this hour but I had to before you misunderstand something about your child."
"...You're Sitri Serafall...san." Ichigo loudly muttered after seeing the twin-tailed beauty.
Those who were inside the house immediately reacted when they heard Ichigo speak and stood up to approach him.
"You're Kurosaki Ichigo-chan~ I heard about you from Claire-chan. Oh, and by the way, I might have set off your new toy but I can assure you that there are no doors manifesting right now. I'm much more sensitive than that thing."
Ichigo turned around and looked at Renji. Before coming to the Human world, he received a note from Mayuri himself that it might react to Serafall's group so he nodded to Ichigo.
Ichigo turned back to Serafall and asked, "You know Kazui?"
"Not personally, but I'm the one who told the strange uncle that he might be connected to Hell."
"Strange uncle?" Ichigo repeated while trying to understand what she just said, but before he or the others could think who possibly this 'strange uncle' is, Kon shouted from inside the house, "Strange uncle!?" Kon ran out and came face to face with Serafall, "Were you sent by him!?"
Serafall crouched down and patted the stuffed toy, "He did. He got worried that you guys might misunderstand the nature of his relationship with Hell and scold him too much without the kid understanding what he did wrong. That's bad for a kid's developing head, you know?"
"Kon, who is this strange uncle."
Kon turned to him with a resolute expression, "I'm sorry Ichigo but I can't tell you right now, but I can assure you that we can trust him."
Ichigo and Kon stared at each other for a few moments until the former let out a heavy sigh, "Haahhh... We can talk about this later." He then turned his attention back to their guest, "Sitri-san, is it? Please come inside."
"Excuse my intrusion~!"

After entering the house, Serafall didn't immediately greet everyone and instead stared at Kazui and began walking in circles around him. Ichigo and Inoue didn't mind this but this has been going on for at least three minutes so the latter voiced out her concern while serving her a cup of tea, "I-Is there something wrong?"
Serafall was immediately pulled out of her contemplation and reassured them, "Ah, there's nothing. The strange uncle already told me about the situation he's in and I trust his words. However, if I can see it with my own eyes, I would rather do the checks again."
She then sat down and accepted her drinks, "Thank you. And regarding your kid, please be reassured, as far as I could see, there's nothing dangerous attached to him."
But even if she said that, there's no way for them to trust her and Serafall also knew that so she first started explaining to them what she knows about Hell.
"First of all, the inhabitants of Hell are divided between the [Chained] and [Unchained]..."
Serafall explained to them the difference between the [Chained] and [Unchained] which Soul Society wasn't even aware of.
As she went through her explanation and Renji dutifully recorded everything, Serafall dropped them the bomb, "Everyone who enters Hell becomes [Chained] as punishment, however, there's an exception to this. Kazui, I don't really know how to properly describe it aside from saying that he became Hell's 'Envoy' by allowing him to send souls down there without any 'punishment', giving them a new lease on life."
