Just as he was about to fix the light above his head, it suddenly flickered.
Kuchiki Kyōka's scalp instantly tingled. In the instant the light flickered, he saw someone standing in the pitch-black office.

In that case, don't blame me for showing no mercy!
"Whisper, Muramasa!" Kuchiki Kyōka released his Zanpakuto, intending to control
