Chapter 8 is not far off
On a rare sleepless night, Arashi walked to the window and began to look at the night view of Fuyuki City. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIt's not because there is an extra Joan of Arc in the house, because the woman is now lying in the bedroom and sleeping with Sakura in her arms.
He just misses Red Lotus unexpectedly, misses Emilia and Priscilla, and misses the people left behind in that world. It's a strange feeling, or never before.
Because of this emotion, he even acquiesced to the temporary stay of Kirizakura, but because of the other party's appearance of bowing his head and having nothing to rely on, he reminded him of the silver-haired girl.
When he left "Wanderer", he was a swordsman with ambitions in all directions, with no distractions or worries, except for the sword, except for the distance, he had no nostalgia for that world, because there was no one to be nostalgic for.
And this emotion has been left in "Hokage", walking in the new world, he always uses a calm and cautious gaze to contact the people around him, and then has a faint intersection.
It wasn't until she suddenly came to Emilia's world that the situation took a little bit of an incredible turn. It is precisely because of this change that when I was in the Holy Domain, I was bent on leaving early.
Birds that have been flying all their lives, what reason should they use to stop nesting?
Wandering through the brightly lit city, Fuyuki is a typical city that has been renovated from an old town. The Miengawa River, which flows down from the peaks, divides the city into two parts, east and west.
On the east side is the new capital, a highly modern new town with everything. On the west side is the old castle 'Fukayama Town', where Arashi is located. The apartment provided by the owner of the Amakusa Pavilion is very close to the flowing Miengawa River.
Standing by the window, you can see the river in front of you, flowing through the renovated river, and pouring into the vast and endless sea little by little.
"Not far away...... Not far away, not ...... Far. I don't know where to turn out the bell, Arashi put it in the palm of his hand, and looked at it for a moment, "Is it really not far away?"
Can we say goodbye? When questions fill my mind like moonlight. I don't know when I'll be able to leave, and I might stay in this world forever. I just hope that the moonlight over there can continue to be as beautiful as ever.
The boy who shoved the bell back into his body and lay back on the floor finally extinguished the lights in the room. Darkness was like a gentle beast, embracing all his emotions.
On this night, Lan had a rare dream, dreaming of many people, dreaming of many things. Everything will pass, everything will remain in the bottom of the heart.
In the early morning, when Joan of Arc walked out of the bedroom after waking up, he saw Arashi-sama, who had already cleaned up the floor, preparing breakfast for the three of them.
I don't know what Joan of Arc's position is in this home, so she hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Lord Lan, just leave this kind of thing to me." ”
"Oh. Lan, who nodded, simply untied his apron and handed it to the other party.
"Why does Arashi-sama wake up early every time?" Joan of Arc, who was still busy with the process, was already proficient in the firepower of the gas, "I'll get up early next time." ”
"It doesn't matter. Lan returned to the sofa and sat down, picked up the newspaper on the coffee table and flipped through it casually, "It's just that I didn't sleep well last night." ”
"That's right. The good-natured Joan of Arc didn't care about the perfunctory tone in Lan's tone, and still said softly, "My lord, do you have any arrangements for today?"
"Let's go to the dojo and teach, Joan of Arc, the hot water is boiling. Listening to the shrill roar, Arashi reminded the heroic spirits who patronized the boiler so as not to cause a tragedy in the world because of the other party's mistakes.
"Ah, ah, yes. I know. Joan of Arc, who hurriedly turned around, left behind a trace of her back in her ponytail and wearing her home clothes.
"Joan of Arc, I remember you said......" Arashi, who put down the newspaper and looked out the window at the clear sky illuminated by the sun, "the Holy Grail can fulfill any wish, can it?"
"Yes. Joan of Arc, who was lifting the kettle, asked softly, "Do you want Arashi-sama too?"
This time she was answered by the sound of opening the newspaper.
In a simple and calm morning, Zai Lan returned to the hustle and bustle that did not fit the style of painting, and the students who were sharpening their knives for the August competition were like little cubs in heat. With nowhere to release their strength, they condensed this enthusiasm into the motivation to learn.
But the gap in the level between the two sides is too large, and their fight has become the background for Arashi to prove his strength once again. Although Arashi himself didn't care about this at all, the depressed students sat down again and raised their own questions.
"Master Lan, will there be a strong figure like you in the national competition?"
"Impossible, I think it's better to ask Master Lan if he will participate in this competition than to care about this kind of question. Arashi's answer was made by an older student who looked a little embarrassed.
"No, it won't. Sitting across from the energetic bunch, Arashi smiled and shook his head to dispel their doubts, "I'm not much interested in the game or anything. ”
"Really? I suddenly feel like I'm more likely to win a game. ”
"Hey, don't be stupid, you can't even beat me. ”
"What are you talking about? How could I not beat you. ”
"Ahem. Stopping some of the noisy students with his voice, Arashi glanced at the young faces with his eyes, "Have you thought of the problem you just made? ”
"Eh, Master Lan, let me rest for another ten minutes, just ten minutes. ”
"I'm still in pain. ”
These idiots, Inoue Yun, who complained in his heart, couldn't wait to stand up, as he had studied in this dojo since he was a child, he knew better than anyone how difficult it was to meet people like Master Lan, these guys didn't know anything at all.
Inoue Yun, who walked out, held the bamboo sword in his hand and felt the momentum of Master Lan standing opposite. With this feeling as powerful as a mountain peak, why would such a person appear in a remote town like Fuyuki?
"Ready?" Lan Xiao asked aloud as she looked at the student across from her.
"Yes, Master Lan, please advise. Inoue Yun, swinging his sword, fell to the ground faster than castration.
The process was short-lived, almost only in the blink of an eye, and the smiling Arashi gave his own comment, "When your breath is unsteady, don't swing your sword." Come on, come on, next, next. ”
Escaping Arashi's gaze, the students who shirked each other chose the next unlucky one.
The scene that happened in the dojo was seen by two men hiding in the shadows, and they moved their eyes back to the chess game in front of them, and Amakusa Sixteenro, who was very proud, said in an almost ostentatious tone: "How is it, how is it, let me tell you, there is a great guy in our dojo." ”
"Your students are too weak to see anything special. The man who was thinking hard about the chess game picked up a chess piece and dropped it heavily.
"Why don't you say that kid is too strong?" Amakusa Sixteenro, who has to fight for the students he taught himself, said something to defend himself.
"Anyway, you didn't lose money in trading, so if you can't make this competition, you can really make some limelight. ”
"Hahaha, it's time for the green smoke to rise from the ancestral grave of my Amakusa family. (To be continued.) )
