early morning.

I was a little relieved that I saw a red cat in front of the abandoned house. I was so worried that yesterday evening I wouldn't be coming today because I made a lot of meanness.

However, the expression is sober. Probably because he is wearing a "mini shrine maiden clothing set" ...

"Good morning. I look good on explosions today." "Oh ... noisy.

After complimenting him with a greeting, the red cat stopped trying to return the greeting.

Attitude while wearing a mini shrine maiden in a lawful manner.

"Where will you take me today?" Tiannan "Ryu" Antarctica "Ah, you said that the flow split" Juro "Nara-sama. I respect you. Both have inherited the secrets of the Antarctic style. "" Huh. I don't really know what I was doing. "

The red cat said slightly but stunned.

Dialect Why are you amazed? Is it a loud dojo where the students are noisy again?

………… I had a time when I thought.

At the Tennan-ryu dojo where we arrived, we had some events since morning.

Says, "The 15th Tennan-Ryu New ☆ Sword-cutting show! ! 』Seems.

what is that. I have no choice but to be worried. I set up with a red cat behind a dozen young samurai who swelled and waited for the opening.

But wait, wait, don't start. I'm so free, so I'm chatting with the red cat and killing time.

"Are they guys from some dojo?" "Tennan-style students" "Just Sakura!"

I thought that it was reasonable and unnatural. It's obviously strange that I raised my fist even though it hadn't even opened yet. Or maybe we are the only external customers? It's a multi seminar. I'm sad.

...... and I thought.

A few minutes later, more spectators appeared behind us. One wrinkled white beard Jiji and one middle-aged dad. From their appearance, they all seem to be samurai.

"Hey guys?" "It's Juro-style Iemoto Urasima and a samurai under the Kuro-style gate."

It's a big name. That Jijii seems to be the home of the Kuro style.

Indeed, the opening hours may actually be even longer. From now on, fierce people all over the island will gather. Is that so?

“—Hi, hello everyone! Nice to see you!

Different. It started suddenly.

As if waiting for Urashima to arrive.

"Today, the weather is good and me is in good shape! It's really a great day for the show!"

…… My head hurts.

What came out was a samurai in his mid-thirties with brown dreadlocks. It looks like she's just saying, "I'm sick of a foreign country."

But surprisingly, she speaks subtle English. Isn't this the first time in this world? He speaks English. How is English positioned here? A distant foreign language? I don't know.

"What's that guy?" "It's Tennan-ryu Iemoto Mamushi" "Ikamoto!"

It seems that he has arrived at Yabe Dojo.

"Ladies' Ean Gentle Maine! We'll be showing off Me's new hop hip sword art right away!"

Hop hip sword art.

Hop hip sword art? ? ? ?

"Yea! Let's Play Muzic!"

Along with the shouting of the viper, suddenly a slick music starts to sound. HipHop? I don't know because I don't know, but maybe it's like that. However, because the instrument is old-fashioned, it does not sound like Gagaku.

This is a live performance. The students of the Tennan school are struggling.

"Hah! Hah! Seyah! Groooooove !!"

And it's no longer meaningful.

Mamushi begins to cut the bundle of straw that Kuroko brought to the stage while dancing on music.

It's a technique reminiscent of Uncle Kasakari, a dancer in the battle of Isshoza, but this one is definitely playful.

………… No, it's interesting.

"Senque, Senque"

It was all over, and Mamushi responded to the applause of the junior students with a satisfied expression. By the way, we and Urashima are always expressionless.

"How was it, the version of the hop hip sword art version Fifteen! If you are interested, please come! Come! "

It ended while I was in a hurry.

...... What is this? I feel like I'm lost in a mysterious world.

No, but it was interesting.

What I was doing was close to fucking, but I want to appreciate that spirit.

I'm always pursuing new things and digging through tunnels where I can't find an exit-it's just like me.

It doesn't matter whether you're strayed or not. It is important and important to keep that will.

This closed island also has boned guys. I'm happy just to know it.

"... Hmm. I wasted my time again." "I was able to reconfirm that Urasima-sama was right." "What is a new sword art? It is inevitable to seek a new one. History and tradition are the backing of the technology. "I don't understand even if I take my whole life." "He is sick. Let's say he won't heal even if he dies."

Well, it looks like some guys don't like it. I think I'm right and say whatever I want.

"Urasima-sama seems to be leaving. We'll follow. We'll go to the Dojo of the Kuro ----" "Okay, let's go. Let the Kuro-ryu fly" "What?"

Listening to that conversation, I lost my mind.

"I prefer the Tennan style rather. If I stayed at the Antarctic style, I was motivated to go ..."

Only those who are traditional are not interested at all.

"Is it really a weird guy?" "Is Urashima strong?" "Eighty years. Eighty. It's declining, but the technology is the best in the island. But it's hard to beat my father. "I'm too late"

Finally, there is no point in going. I know from Ernte's case that even if Jijii is bumpy, nothing is comfortable.

"Where's the next place?" "If you skip the old tree ... over there?" "Over there?"

Kissho style. This is the name I just heard recently.

"Where did Masamune come from?" "I know well. Yes."

I kept silent that I heard from him.

I and Akaneko exchange words while walking to the Kichijo style dojo.

"What kind of school is it?" "Ichiko-Senden. An unparalleled sword-cutting family on the island ... No, was there an exception?" "Exception?" Maitreya: "Ryuh. Is Miroku-sama 20th generation today? "Is it hereditary? ... is the 20th generation ?!" "It is the oldest school on the island that lasts 1,000 years."

Hey, he ’s a humper.

"Therefore, all the schools on the island are named Miroku-sama." "At first it was only the Maitreya style." With the addition of the current, the Antarctic flow became the Jiro and Tennan flows, and the Bensai flow was completed. "Isn't it?" "... No. The predecessor Iemoto Sumire was strong, but the current Izumoto Azami ..."

When the red cat became murky, he arrived at the Kichijoryu dojo. Certainly a tasteful building. But ... I don't feel so much like a lively dojo.

"I'm sorry!

As usual, the red cat spoke and heard slaps and footsteps from behind the building.

And.

"--No, no! What's the look of a red cat ?! Cute, cute, cute!

A glamorous beauty suddenly appears and hugs the red cat. She is a beautiful woman with beautiful loose black hair in her late 20s.

"A, thistle, play with me!" "I'm still behaving strangely! I'll call her my sister like in the old days! Well?" I don't mind! Thistle-sister. Look at this? "" ... Thistle-sister "" No ~ n cute! "

What am I showing?

Looking at the vagueness, a woman called thistle seemed to notice me and turned her gaze at her and showed a surprised face.

I said, "Oh, oh, this is ... this is where I didn't do it ..."

Leaving the red cat with a laugh.

The red cat sighed with a tired look like "Huh" and lined up next to me.

"Thistle unnie. This is a second traveler. I'm going around to introduce the island." "Domo" "Introduction to the island ...? Eh, is that good?" I don't know ... but that's a little translation. "" Translation? Did the translation get better ...? "

With her face turned all the way, thistle twists her neck. Is it a surprisingly harsh person who seems to be hoarse?

"... Well, any beautiful young man is fine!"

Different.

Thank you ~, shouting hands with a smile.

I grasped thistle's hand while thinking, "I'm a kid." ... I suddenly noticed.

Meat stick-

Her palms were so lumpy that she could not be considered a woman.

Do you not recover by potion? No, there have been many cases where scars are not completely recovered using cheap potions. It is not surprising that if you continue to use cheap food, you will be able to prick. Or are you practicing sword-drawing techniques every day and every morning so that you can make a meat stick?

"Let's get in! I'll make tea now!"

Thistle gladly guided us indoors and ran for tea. Unlike traditional schools, it has a rare welcome mood.

However, the surroundings are extremely quiet. The house is empty. Neither the dojo nor the corridor has been seen by anybody in the area where they passed by the guest.

Was it a holiday? When thinking so, the red cat opened his mouth.

"Thistle sister protects the KISSHO style alone after her death."

Violets. It's the ancestor of the Kissyo Ryu, the mother-in-law of Masamune. Is he already dead?

"Do you live alone here?"

So that's it. I feel like I understand a little more than just a welcome reason.

Probably lonely.

"Yes, wait. I only had rice crackers, would I like it?" "Thank you, I was just hungry."

Thistle returns with a rice cracker and green tea for the number of people on the tray.

I reached for my rice cracker and cheeked up. Flexible and strange touch. A wet rice cracker? The soy sauce taste goes well with tea.

"... Oh, it's damp"

Thistle said with a shy look. Give me my impression.

No, but it's surprising. I could not stand and reached for the second. The neighboring cat has a frightened look.

"I don't care if I don't care" "I'm hungry" "That's right, thank you"

Thistle also attracted me.

Poverty However, if I could draw so much, I thought I could get something else ... and I got the point. I can't give it out, I can't. Cheap potions and damp rice crackers. I see, I was connected. What is the KISSHO style?

"Um, take care of yourself ... Hey, Akaneko-chan. By the way, what are you doing today? "I don't mind if you don't introduce me. I'll go home after having tea." "Wait wait!"

He was being returned automatically.

I'm starting to understand how to treat my red cat. It's a certain woman knight who turns white eyes on my whole body.

"Wait, wait, wait!" "Ok, I understand. Noisy, absolutely. I'll ask you to be quiet." "This is this ...!"

When the red cat became angry and turned red, he looked back at thistle.

"Ufufu is lively and fun."

Thistle is in a good mood.

If this is the case, I can say it.

"Well, I'm asking you to break in." "Yes, tell me anything. I'll cooperate if I can do it."

“………… Huh”

As soon as I said it, the atmosphere of thistle changed.

Everyone on this island is. As soon as you hear that it's a sword-drawing technique, change your eye color.

Thistles are also real samurai.

"I don't mind. Immediately?" "Oh. Red cat, lend a sword."

When I glanced sideways, the red cat looked at me with a face like "How did you come?"

Don't do it, you ...

But I was troubled. In this case, you will play thistle with your bare hands. Then it is not interesting.

I was thinking what was going on ... suddenly, I heard a voice from behind.

"--I'll lend you."

A familiar boyish voice.

Demon's face At the same time, thistle's face changes to.

Looking back, it was Masamune with a fearless smile.
