Two weeks have passed since Ichigo's arrival at the Throne of Heroes and the teen was beginning to get accustomed to this new world. He couldn't thank Scathach enough for letting him stay with her, if not for that he would be fucked, sure Alaya would probably let him stay with her but he had a hunch that he would not even get any sleep because of her constant teasings and who knows what more she would do to him. Speaking of Scathach, she was being of great help, explaining more about servants and the kings of each kingdom. She also said how some of them are chosen and summoned to participate in this Holy Grail War thing. When she told him about the mechanichs of the war and what the Holy Grail was, he couldn't help but think that the people that created this shit were as crazy as Aizen and Yhwach and that this ''war between magi'' was a total bullshit. She also would take him to the city to just show him around till he was familiarised with it. During his stay, the two had become good friends and shared some stories about them, When she told him about her methods of training or test to accept a student, Ichigo felt a big amount of pity for the warriors that were taken under her wing. Often, they had friendly spars, and this just happened to be what they were currently doing...

-'' HAH!'',Ichigo's scream cuts through the air as he brought his larger zanpakutõ down towards his female opponent. The woman just lifted her spear, parring the attack, their weapons were clashing at inhuman speeds, making sparks fly around them. The combatants aimed a knee at each others stomach, wich resulted in the clash between their knees. Jumping to get some distance, they shared a glance and lowered their weapons.

-'' Uff, that sure was a good workout.'', Ichigo stretched his arms as Zangetsu disappeared.

-'' I must agree, You're a incredible fighter Ichigo and I had fun sparring against you.''

-'' Heh, same here.'', Taking two towels, Ichigo gave one to Scathach and used the other to clean up his sweaty face.

-'' What are you going to do now?''

-'' I'm going to take a bath and get some sleep, and you Ichigo? Any plans?'', Said teen shrugged.

-''There's nothing to do, so I think I'll take a bath too and go to the city.''

Scathach gave a nod to him,'' Just be careful.''

-'' Don't worry, since when do I get in trouble?'', He asked humorously.

She just stared blankly at him. One of the things that Scathach learned about the berry head during his stay is that he got easily annoyed and would often sent a glare at anyone that thought that she wasn't a good ''King'' or spoke bad about her. While she was flattered that he was feeling annoyance and even some amount of rage towards the people that spoke bad things about her, and tried to protect her reputation and honor at the best of his abilities, his actions also could be seen as a challenge to some of the more bloodlusted Heroic Spirits and that could turn into a bad situation.

-'' Do you really want me to answer that?''

Ichigo begun to sweat at her empty gaze,it always made him feel uneasy, '' N-No need.''

Walking together, they entered the castle and made their way to their own rooms. Taking his clothes, Ichigo stepped into the bathtub. 15 minutes later, he was completely dressed in a dark blue shirt, white pants and black shoes. Taking his cell phone, he quickly put his earphones, it was a miracle that it still had battery, he was using it in his spars with Scathach to make things more fun. Getting a small bag that had a bottle of water inside it, the teen got out of the castle.

'' If I go walking, I'll arrive in the city in 2 to 3 hours. Better go using shunpo, at least it will take just 5 minutes to get there.''

Making his decision, Ichigo shunpo'ed away while Red's Fight Inside played in his phone. Arriving at the estimated time, he began to walk aimlessly while looking at the stores. He was puzzled at first, How is there stores in this place? When he asked this to Scathach she simply gave a shrug and said that maybe Alaya wanted to make the Throne of Heroes more alike to the human world. Also, heroic spirits didn't always fight, Heroes were once humans too and, like everyone, they had hobbie's. He had agree with her(although still confused).

Lost in his thought's, the teen kept walking and did not notice a figure sprawled on the floor, stumbling on it, He lost his balance and almost fell to the floor, but was kick enough to avoid it.

-'' What the fuck?'', Turning to the ''thing'' on the floor, he quickly realized that it was a person, a man to be more accurrate. He was young, with quirky long hair combed backwards and was wearing a dark teal outfit. He didn't look well by the way his right hand was covering his mouth and the slight groans coming from him. Being a good samaritan, Ichigo approached the man.

-'' Hey, are you alright?'', Hearing the question, the man turned his head to him.

-'' N-No, I'm actually feeling really bad.'', with this said, the man walked limply to an alley and vomited.

Ichigo felt pity for him. Opening his bag, he took the bottle of water from within it. Kneeling next to the man, he tapped on his back slightly.

-'' Here, drink this it will make you feel a little better.'', The man held the bottle and slowly drank the water. Finishing it in a minute, he gave it back to the teen.

Picking it, Ichigo put the now empty bottle back in the bag. He then put one of the man's arm around his shoulder and lifted him up.

-'' Come on, You're on an horrible state so I'll help you to go back to your home,just give me the directions.'', The dark haired man stared in surprise at Ichigo and gave a small smile to him.

-'' Thank you.''

-'' It's nothing, and the name's Kurosaki Ichigo, nice to meet you.''

-'' I am Diarmuid Ua Duibhene, likewise.''

Presentations made, The two young men's began their walk.

Turns out that Diarmuid was a pretty cool guy. The moment they arrived at his house he offered a cup of coffee to Ichigo. The teen tried to refuse at first, but seeing how persistent the dark haired man was, he accepted it in the end. They sat down at the armchairs in the living room and talked about trivial things for a long while. Ichigo's main question was how he ended up laying on the ground in the middle of the street.

-'' Well my friend Cu Chulainn took me to the tavern to have a few drinks, I don't hold well against alchohol so I started to feel sick.'', Ichigo had the feeling that the name of Diarmuid's friend was familiar but he couldn't remember were he heard about it.

'' Fuck my trouble at remembering names, Oh well must not be important.''

-'' I feel you man, I'm can't handle alchohol either.'', He shuddered at the memory of his first time drinking that damned liquid on his 18 birthday, Keigo somehow convinced him to try it and after two shots of sake he was already drunk, his friends laughed their ass off at his drunken state and even the bastard of his father recorded everything.

'' Reminding it made me really want to punch Goat chin's face a thousand times when I get back to Karakura Town.''

At the Kurosaki Clinic, Kurosaki Isshin began to sweat, having the sudden feeling that his life was in danger.

Back with the duo, Ichigo scanned the room till his eyes landed on a bookshelf, and the name of one of the authors on it made his eyes widen to their maximum.

-'' You have books of William Shakespeare?'', He asked. Diarmuid raised an eyebrown whe he noticed that the orange haired teen was trembling.

-'' Yes, literture is one of the things I enjoy, I have books of different eras and as Shakespeare is one of the most renowned authors in history, I took an interest in his works.'', Diarmuid saw that Ichigo was still staring at the books,'' Are you a fan of him Ichigo-san?''

-'' Yeah, I loved his works since I was a kid.'', Standing up, Diarmuid made his way to the bookshelf and took his copies of Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet and Macbeth. Walking towards Ichigo, He gave the books to him.

-'' They are yours now.'', Ichigo looked at him in shock.

-'' I-I can't Diarmuid!'', Said man just smiled.

-'' It's your retribution for helping me, Please take them.'', Reluctantly, the teen grasped the books, receiving a nod from the Irish man, he put them in his bag.

-'' Thank you Diarmuid.'', Ichigo spoke while giving a light bow.

'' If he get's like this just because of these books I can't even imagine how nervous he will be on the day he meets William personally.'', The spearman thought in amusement.

Standing up firmly, Ichigo glanced at the window and saw that the Sun was already setting.

-'' Guess it's time for me to get going, It was nice meeting you Diarmuid-san and thanks again for the books.'', The two walked in the direction of the door.

-'' You too Ichigo-san, I hope that your way back home will be peaceful.'' Opening the door, Ichigo gave a wave with his hand, turned his back to the man and walked by the street. Sgortly after it, he shunpo'ed back to Scathach's castle. Getting there, He passed by the big ass doors and came in.

-'' Welcome back Ichigo.''

Turning around, he came face to face with Scathach, who was leaning against the wall.

-'' Hey, I'm back.'', He said casually.

-'' How was your day at the city?''

-'' Nothing special, but it did have some nice inconveniences.''

At her puzzled look, Ichigo just chuckled and gave a good night while walking to his room.

AN:Here I am guys, this update took longer than I expected because I had a writer's block when I was writing this chapter so I wrote a Konosuba one shot in an attempt to distract my mind a litlle and seems that it worked haha. I always liked Diarmuid's character so I thought, '' Why not make them be bro's? It could be cool'', and yes, Diarmuid will make more apprearences in the future.

As I said before, we will have some slice of life chapters but after that shit will get real.

I decided wich ones will be my main long stories after I finish this one, it will be in this order:

1 - When a God and a Goddess Collide

2 - Chivalry of a Berry Knight

3 - A Bleach/Hunter x Hunter crossover

4 - A Bleach/Amagi Brillant Park crossover

Sorry for the mistakes, I checked the chapter by myself at least three times but this did not have proofread, I'll see if I can find someone to do it later and then I'll repost it.

Thanks for everyone that dropped a review last chapter :D

Well that's it guys, till next time!
