Promise time. Tohachi-no-Kuni I get down to the port of this transfer summoning.
There was a red cat already visible there.
"... Stop that face. I won't laugh again." "........." "Nuff, I'm telling you to stop!" "Yes."
The match of the encounter is my win.
"Well, let's go to the proof before returning the sword." "It's great confidence. How do you prove it?"
It's a simple story.
I'm going to the void and show me in order, starting with Infantry Swordplay.
At first, I was looking at him as if I was impressed with "Hou" ... but his expression turned blue from "Rooking Swordsmanship".
And by the time you show Ryuo Swordsman, the red cat will start to look at you.
"What kind of squishy did you use?" "Do you think you can do squishy?" "Well, I was angry at me. Did you actually remember from the beginning?" Is it a kind of illusion? "
"... did you remember everything?"
Seems unacceptable. However, I have no choice but to remember everything.
"Fu, don't be silly. In a week ... In a week, you can learn ..."
--not human.
The red cat mutters small.
It came out, it is the usual monster treatment. When he comes across a fact that he doesn't understand, he quickly "exceptions" that he's a monster. Justify that you're not crazy, he's just crazy.
It looks poor. If you don't do that, you'll have to admit that everything you've accumulated and spent so much time trying to remember is "wasteful". So in order to defend my little little tower on the sand, I try to desperately drive away monsters like me as bad guys.
"Hey, don't get me wrong."
I don't know how I feel, but I get angry.
Waste? Say an idiot. Mevion, that's it. What was done with the power of “1000” suddenly becomes “1” one day. It was just the same day that I learned Dragon King Sword Art. Convenient shortcuts can only be found when looking back at the roads where most came.
If you really think "waste" from the bottom of your heart, you have to waste your life.
"You're starting from now. The one who can't stand here is the whole thing. If that's okay, then you'll hang around and complain about the absurdity all the time." "What? ...!" I don't care, but this is the reality. You lost your bet.
The red cat glared at me with eyes that looked like her parent's enemy ... approached me three steps and offered me "Kizunoya".
Even if he looks dissatisfied, he seems to keep his promise. Nevertheless, I keep my promises in front of the facts that could overturn her life so far. He is a very noble person.
I was impressed and returned the sword to the red cat with a smile.
"Oh, with that"
Hand over the long-awaited, promised item.
"I'm not a dress-up doll!" "I'll do it all. Just wear one that I like." "!? Such fine cloth, I've seen it ..." You can wear a long skirt at this time. You are a beautiful woman and you will surely look good. I chose a color that shines with that long black hair. "
The red cat, which received my present with both hands, had a complicated expression.
You seemed pleased? Well, above all.
By the way, it's the place where you've done the main subject ...
"Tell me about the island, no, Tohachi no Kuni. I'll leave you the turn."
* * *
"It's already down today. Can I get up tomorrow morning?" "I don't care. What should I do?" "Do you want me to go home? Don't worry, I'll do as much as I leave the night." "Be kind," "I guess I'm so painful because of who!" "... Your father?" "You're going to blame!"
…… It ’s a really playful man. I hate these flirty guys the most.
Therefore, I think this. I want to see this man's relaxed expression collapse.
I don't know what kind of hand I used to learn how to draw in a week ... but this guy doesn't know yet.
This island is the hell of a shura where the blood-thirsty demons infest this country.
I don't want you to get in shape as if you learned sword-drawing. Kabutoba I and I learned everything. He walked into the dead area where his hair was standing, and spent days and nights in the hellish kiln. Eventually as a person who carries the name of “Ryu”.
"I've arrived. Let's survive the night breeze." "It's a very dignified house. Here?" Hiko "The place where the founder of the style once lived." "A school that was founded a long time ago on a small boat but arrived on the island. It's the only legend that remains. It's a vacant house that no one uses or tries to approach." "Hey. Is it perfect for me?" Yes, in terms of strangers. "
And ... the same will be the end of the dire death. Everybody else is doomed.
"I'll visit again in the morning." "Oh, thank you."
The more you think, the more weird it is.
What did he come to Tohachi no Kuni for? He said that he had learned to draw swords, but that purpose had already been fulfilled.
I don't know. I don't know everything.
What if my aim is a sword? Maybe it has been replaced with a fake ...
"... Do you think too much?"
Apparently, my sword is definitely real. On the contrary, it is sharper than when you give it. It is really careful care.
Do you know how to handle swords ...?
If so, did he remember the sword art from the beginning?
"Hmm……?"
Suddenly, it caught my eye.
Leather groove wrapped around the handle. There, a small black mass stuck.
“……………”
Blood.
I also remember. The hand peels and bleeds when I forget myself and keep swinging my sword.
Blood that cannot be scraped off with such care. How much did it bleed? Did you keep swinging your sword while bleeding? Perhaps he had no time to use the potion and ignored the pain and continued to shake. Otherwise this is not the case. This darkened blood is evidence that he was so immersed in sword-drawing. Evidence of irresistible efforts.
"No way ... that guy, really ...?"
A little, my mind changed.
……, also for a moment.
"Mu, mu, muuuuu ...!"
Girls The next morning, when I looked at the gift from that man, I found that none of them seemed to suit me at all.
No, it would be a lie if you are not attracted to such clothes.
Hakama: The mainland has heard from peddlers that tubular and “wanpace” clothing has become popular, and she was secretly longing for it. I want to be a seventeen girl, sometimes feminine.
In addition, such excellent clothes, most of the girls who dream of wearing it once in a lifetime. That is no exception for me.
However, when it comes to wearing it and walking outside ...
"Nanaran!"
Shameless! !
Try to be seen by people in the dojo! The majesty of the capture of the Kabuhara flow falls to the ground!
I grabbed the safest long hakama kimono and handed it through my sleeves.
So… he hesitates again.
What would he say if he wore it?
Are you disappointed? No, he said that long ones would look good. Probably praise. Can you praise a short hakama? Isn't it laughing if it doesn't suit you?
...... No, that guy is Subei. I will surely praise you. Yes, it must be.
Isn't there such a chance again? Then, could you take this machine, blame the guy, and wear it out ...
…………………….
"~~~! Yeah, damn! The promise is a promise!"
I don't know anymore!
I grabbed a frighteningly short hakama, hanging out with no excuses.
* * *
"The strongest. I want to build your statue and pray in the morning, day, and night."
As expected, it was perfect.
A white kimono, a dark blue hakama, a large haori, white tabi and black snow, long black hair tied to a ponytail, and a rugged sword hanging on the waist.
Above all, the bright red face is hidden with both hands, and when shaken, the trembling is small. If you're aiming, you can't take it down.
"Well, thank you, thank you," "Thank you for your prayer!" How tired just to get out! "
Do you not want to be seen by others so much? You're pretty shy. But ...
"Well, have you forgotten? Are you going to guide the island from now on?" "...?"
You noticed.
The bright red face turns blue and purple.
"I have to change clothes," "Do you think you will forgive me?"
silence.
"... hahahaha ... When this happens, it's torn ..."
After several tens of seconds. The red cat finally gave up, turning around and muttering with a half laugh.
Alright. Otherwise, it will not be a punishment game.
"Well, where do you start at first?"
Preparations have been completed, and finally I couldn't hide my feelings and urged her to guide me.
Then-the red cat suddenly erased its vivid expression and opened his mouth with sword-like sharp eyes.
Daikoku: "... Ryu. First, go to the dojo, the most dominant school on this island."
