Shirou's clones number 30 million

"I'm not that bored. I'm just bored and want to add some credit to my resume."

At this point, Kuro-tung paused, then sighed:

"I really envy you guys with connections. Even if you slack off and skip work all day, you won't get fired."

That's it!

Upon hearing this, Ichigo Kurosaki immediately realized that it must be a diligent employee coming to arrest a slacker who was skipping work. Luckily, he hadn't intervened earlier.

Otherwise, it would be inappropriate to help anyone.

"Hey you over there, have you looked enough? Dressed in such strange clothes, are you a newcomer to the capital?" Kuroko turned around and glanced at Kurosaki Ichigo.

"That's right, exactly. I just arrived in the capital and am looking for a job. Do you have any recommendations?"

"Go to the Human Resources Department if you're looking for a job. We're only responsible for maintaining order, not for introducing jobs."

Human Resources Management Department? What a modern name.

Where is the Human Resources Management Department you mentioned?

“Go straight to the left after exiting the alley, turn right at the second intersection, and then go straight for about 300 meters. It should be around there.”

It's not that far.

"Thank you."

Chapter 530 It turns out I'm the only one who's stuck in the same place.

Chapter 531 It turns out I'm the only one standing still.

On his first day in this new world, Ichigo Kurosaki found a temporary job with daily pay through the introduction of the Human Resources Department.

Working on a construction site mainly involves tasks including, but not limited to, carrying bricks, building walls, painting, and installing water pipes.

As the sun set, Ichigo Kurosaki successfully received his daily wage: three silver coins.

Based on the information I heard from my coworkers all day, three silver coins are not a small amount; their purchasing power is roughly equivalent to 6000 yen.

However, he clearly remembered that the bag Aizen casually tossed to Rukia this morning was full of gold coins, at least thirty or forty of them.

"Kurosaki, let's go to a tavern for a drink. I know a good place."

"This... is good."

I had originally planned to go to the tavern to gather information, but now I'm only a few hours late.

Inside the tavern, Ichigo Kurosaki once again encountered the blonde, animal-eared girl from earlier in the day.

However, unlike during the day, she did not have those strange beast ears on her head.

As soon as he entered, Ichigo Kurosaki saw a group of drunkards drinking heavily, and Leone was one of them.

Noticing his gaze, the coworker nudged him a few times with his elbow and laughed:

"What, do you want to join in too?"

"Do not…"

"No need to pretend anymore. Many people want to challenge the boss to a drinking contest, hoping to get a bargain. However, the boss has an excellent alcohol tolerance, and almost no one can beat her."

"Impossible, right? She's all alone."

"If you don't believe me, you can go and try it yourself. Whenever someone challenges her to a drinking contest, the boss almost never refuses."

Why do you always call her "Big Sister"?

“When I first came to the capital, I was penniless. The Human Resources Management Department hadn’t been established yet. Thanks to the boss, I was able to find this job.”

In other words, the modern-style Human Resources Management Department was only recently established, at most a few months ago.

"I see. Where shall we go for a drink?"

"Aren't you going to go drink with the boss?"

"Well... I'm not very confident in my alcohol tolerance. Besides, drinking without restraint like that isn't good for my health."

“That’s right! That’s the correct argument. Let’s go over there.”

……

"Ugh... I'm going to vomit..."

In the alley outside the tavern, Ichigo Kurosaki leaned against the wall, vomiting repeatedly.

Although I was determined not to drink too much, once I started, I couldn't stop.

"So you are here."

Hearing Rukia's voice, Ichigo Kurosaki turned around and looked back, immediately feeling relieved.

"We agreed to meet here, but you haven't come yet. I thought you had forgotten about the important matter."

"Feel sorry."

"Have you been drinking at the bar ever since we parted this morning?"

"Of course not, I've been working diligently."

As he spoke, Ichigo Kurosaki suddenly realized that his part-time job today was basically a waste of his time in relation to the investigation mission, and he couldn't help but laugh.

"Haha... Ugh..."

"Let's go, let's go to the hotel to rest first."

"Rukia, let me tell you, I really have been working hard and have gathered a lot of useful information..."

"Yes, yes... You've worked hard."

Rukia helplessly supported him and casually offered a few perfunctory words.

On the roof of a newly built five-story building in the distance, Chelsea was carefully observing Kurosaki Ichigo and his companion with night vision binoculars.

Beside her, Leone was completely devoid of the swagger she had displayed at the tavern, instead appearing somewhat guilty.

"So those are the people from the underworld that Adris was talking about? They look just like ordinary strangers. Have you gotten any information from them, Leone?"

"Of course, you can rest assured that I can handle things! Tomorrow, I will definitely be able to get close to them smoothly."

After saying this, perhaps feeling a bit unsure, Leone added:

"During the day today, I originally intended to approach that man by chance, but I didn't expect to run into Kurohime."

"You know, that kid is just too serious. Compared to her, she always thinks I'm slacking off or skipping work."

“After that, I finally found him, but he was always doing manual labor on the construction site and was really hard to approach.”

"As for what just happened... I've already become drinking buddies with him through drinking, and I'm sure we'll get along well tomorrow."

Although we were so engrossed in drinking that we didn't get to talk much, we're in the same tavern, so we can be considered drinking buddies.

"Is that so? Then I'll trouble you again tomorrow." Chelsea had a faint smile on her face.

Seeing this, Leone inexplicably felt a sense of pressure, and couldn't help but chuckle a few times, trying to change the subject:

"I haven't seen Esdeath these past few days. It's amazing that you two haven't started fighting."

"Do you really want me to fight her?"

"Of course not, I'm on your side. I'm just a little worried that woman is too powerful, and it will be difficult for us to win."

“Leone, the world is changing very fast. If you keep looking at people with outdated views, you will be eliminated by the world sooner or later.”

"What does this mean? Could it be that you, like Kuro-eum, ate some kind of Devil Fruit?"

Didn't I tell you?

Chelsea snapped her fingers lightly with her right hand, and a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky.

"I am the lightning man who ate the Rumble-Rumble Fruit. In a head-on fight, I may not be able to beat Esdeath, but I will definitely not lose by much."

"what……?"

Leone looked surprised, then burst into laughter.

"So, am I the only one who's stuck in the same place?"

"Keep going, Leone. The world changes so fast. The world we knew is gone forever."

After speaking, Chelsea transformed into a blue lightning bolt and flew into the palace.

"Oh my...! Chelsea, who had little fighting ability and was forced to be a pet cat for a long time, now possesses such great power. It's incredible."

Leone's face lit up with excitement, but his expression gradually turned serious.

"It seems I need to work hard too, otherwise I'll really be left behind by everyone else."

Since Esdeath ascended the throne, the empire has undergone significant changes every day.

With each passing day, things change dramatically, and the past is no longer the same.

The original members of the Night Raid disbanded after being freed by Adris.

Najenda and Brand rejoined the army, and Akame joined the guard unit, working alongside her sister Kurome as colleagues.

As for Leone himself, he was also a member of the guard.

However, compared to her two overly serious sisters, she was always very casual, and it was common for her to go for a drink during her daytime patrols.

After a moment of contemplation, her gaze shifted again to Ichigo and Kurosaki below, and she sighed softly:

"The underworld? Why didn't it appear sooner?"

It is said that there is no underworld in this world, and when a person dies, it is like a lamp going out.

But in other worlds, death is just the beginning; after death, one can live another life in the underworld.

"I really envy the people in that world..."
