"Oh, yes? And why?"

There was no anger, and there was no embarrassed expression. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Although the four were probably retainers, or the samurai of the flag book, their faces were gloomy for a moment, but Date Masamune just smiled, and then made an expression of interest.

"If you refuse so simply, there must be a reason or something, right?"

"Because I'm still a kid."

The bogey shrugged his shoulders without hesitation.

However, this is not a wise answer. Because in this era of general short-livedness, there are probably 12, maybe 13 youboo...

"Huh~?"

So, Masamune will show an expression of incomprehension, which is a matter of course, right?

But of course, this expression is still much better than that of her samurai.

"Hahaha, are you scared, boy, or should you praise you for being self-aware?"

It would be rude to say that it was a simple mockery, and the smiles of those samurai were more angry and laughing.

It probably contains the meaning of 'actually sending Masamune-sama for such a stupid reason', and those samurai, if they didn't care about the Lord's intentions, I'm afraid they would have drawn their swords out of their sheaths at this moment.

After all, the undisguised 'ahhh

"Ahh

But Youji didn't care about that.

Still with the same expression and tone that didn't care about anything, he waved his hand perfunctorily, and then, while patting Maiori, who was trembling from the other party's anger, to calm her down. While I began to think about whether it was time to send off the guests.

After all, no matter how you say it, he can be regarded as returning from the 'future', not to mention that he doesn't want to participate in the war in this troubled world. Even if you're really crazy, you'll only go to the Sixth Heaven Demon King and the monkey, right? Or, Sister Qianxin, maybe?

"yes, that's a good reason, but unfortunately it doesn't work."

However, Masamune Lori is still very calm.

As if the jealousy's previous refusal was just a joke, she shrugged her shoulders in regret, and then, from her gaze, the meaning was clearly ignored.

"What do you mean?"

"It's simple, I won't allow you to refuse"

"Are you depriving me of my freedom?"

"You've been a civilian under my rule since you set foot on Oshu soil, do you think you can refuse my call just because you're not old enough?"

Youji's eyes widened.

"What a robber theory?"

"Perhaps, but that's a matter of course, isn't it—you see, that's what the so-called state, collective, and team stuff is. Bringing together the majority of people to form a community of interests, excluding and expelling non-members in order to protect the interests of members. And when this group takes possession of a piece of land, and calls it 'territory' for the protection of its members, further rights and duties are born—whether city, state, or state—to ensure that the people and nobility that make up it will hold the area with something called army and violence, and expel from it others who are not its own powers, so as to ensure that the harvest and profits of the land will not be plundered by others. And in the process, in order to ensure that this protection is not interrupted and not overwhelmed by other groups and individuals, the dedication of the rest of the individuals within the group is a matter of course, isn't it?"

The girl's expression was calm to the point of cruelty.

"I, though I was born noble, don't think I'm really noble—you see, I'm a girl, aren't I? If it weren't for the fact that I was the only child in the Date family, I'm afraid my only role would have been to marry off and become a commodity for family marriage." Although it is also my obligation, there is nothing to complain about, but it does not make me feel happy after all. So, after I was lucky enough to become the governor of the Date family, I was thinking, why are the nobles noble, and what is the power of the nobles?"

“・・・”

"Of course it won't be because of the last name, right?"

“・・・”

"Actually, this kind of thing can be understood if you think about it seriously, but many people don't want to think about it, or don't even bother to do it-I'm like that, but I should say I'm lucky, right? The big sister I met in taught me a lesson."

“・・・”

"The power of the aristocracy lies not in itself, but in others—more trustworthy, more knowledgeable, more convincing, not in its own power, but in the ability to turn those it leads into power. Land, population, resources, the more you have them, the more powerful the nobles become, and on the other hand, if you can't be trusted and can't get land and resources, the nobles are just a special kind of commoners."

Youji was dumbfounded when he heard this, and as for Maiori behind him, he had turned into mosquito coil eyes, and the whole person fell into chaos.

Here's the difference, though.

Maiori couldn't understand it, and Youji... didn't fully understand it.

After all, the girl said it too long and too fast. At best, you can only understand part of it.

That part was enough for him to comprehend, and the girl probably wanted to say something, but...

"What a bold statement, is it okay to discuss this kind of topic with a civilian like me?"

"What's the matter, anyway, from today onwards, you are my subordinate"

There is no hesitation, no refusal at all.

However, in a sense, although the yoji is not disgusted, he also does not like this attitude.

"I don't have a problem with the theory of power and deontology, but your attitude will not be liked."

"If you don't like it, it's good to improve it slowly, but if you have talent, you can't get it back if you let it go once"

And one of the characteristics of human beings is.

Rebellion against so-called authority grows with power.

Reluctant to obey, more valued for their own ideas, and more willing to think alone.

That's not bad, because the root cause of this kind of thing is self-esteem and self-confidence that comes with self-improvement.

But it has to be said that sometimes, people will choose the wrong path because of excess self-confidence.

"I am complimented, but I still refuse, please go back"

Like now.

"-Bold!"

The self-confidence of the demon made him choose to follow his own casualness, and over there, the samurai under Masamune chose to use the strong because of their self-esteem.

- This is not difficult to understand, after all, for the samurai, the death of the lord and the servant is also a kind of benchmark in a sense.

And Masamune Lori said a bunch of things, and behaved so sincerely-the little ghost on the other side still looked casual and didn't know what to do.

Come to think of it, if you are a loyal person, you will be angry, right?

Even if you don't kill him, you have to teach him a lesson and let him recognize the reality. ’

It was with this in mind that these samurai drew their swords.

As for the possible defeat, they didn't even think about it.

Yes, after all, one side is an adult who is already in his thirties, has been in the battle formation several times, and has survived to this day, while the other side is just a child of the same age as the lord - even if the other party has the name of a sword hero. It's just a rumor that has come out recently, and I'm afraid that after a lot of exaggeration, even if there is a bit of real material, it can't be true.

For them, this is something that does not need to be hesitated and worried at all, and it is not even arrogant at all. At best, it's just a little negligence.

However, it was this negligence that almost cost them their lives.

"- Did you draw your sword against each other?"

If it weren't for the murderous aura, I'm afraid the ending would have been different.

In the face of the oppression of four people, Youji just smiled.

Then, the next moment. Incredible sword skills unfolded in front of everyone.

"I just wanted to try it-"

“！？”

"-- What about this thing, I call it Godspeed."

In the past two months, the exploration of his own physical ability, the subordinate use of the power of time is displayed at this moment.

It's not unreasonable, it's just the 'stagnation' of walking in the long river.

Instead, the axis is stretched so that the stopwatch is sluggish and 'slows down'.

To use a second as if it were three seconds, and in the eyes of someone else - that's a veritable triple, right?

It's much weaker than the time stop, but it's also much easier to use than the time stop.

The figure of the demon turned into a green whirlwind in an instant.

It was still a method of fighting without sheathing, and at the same time that the demon cut between the four samurai, the sheathed long sword struck them mercilessly in the crook of their knees.

Under a conversion formula that the demon himself doesn't understand, the attacks that are sent out during the slowdown time are even more powerful than before.

With a single blow, the trained samurai had to fall to one knee, and a second blow from their back knocked them to the ground even more simply.

Three seconds, four people.

As the wind swept across the array, victory was a matter of course.

In front of me was a blonde girl with round eyes and an incredible face.

Youji looked at her and naturally smiled.

"How does it feel?"

And after a short period of consternation, the little girl replied with no weakness and full of wild response.

"Not bad!!"

If the previous monster was a kamikaze.

Then the girl at that moment was thunder.

In an instant, Youji saw something in the other party's gaze. So he retreated without hesitation, and at the same time, six swords slashed in front of him with a cold glow.

"Oh?"

Stand still and squint.

It's a familiar knife grip. A unique tactic for the person in front of you.

"Six knives..."

The specially thinned handle appears to be forged from iron bars, and in addition to holding it, it can also be connected to some special mechanism on the girl's wrist armor.

――In other words, if you hold it alone, it is just an ordinary sword. But when six are equipped together, it's more like an extra-long claw blade.

"Yes"

The girl smiled as if she was smiling happily, and as she motioned for her Hachimoto samurai to stand down, she looked at the yoki with excitement.

"I didn't suspect it before, but it seems that your value is greater than it is rumored."

"Ahh

"So, if you are defeated by me, you will become my retainer—"

The last word abruptly raised the tone, so it wasn't a raid.

At the same time as the words fell, the girl's figure turned into lightning.

At this moment, Youji immediately realized that if the girl had fought a duel with other people before, then those people must have suffered this kind of loss: because they underestimated the explosiveness and speed of women, they were directly attacked by the girl in front of them. Fall into disadvantage before you can react.

But only here, that won't work.

'Is it faster than me?'

"-Heh, then let's try it-"

Quickly.

Thrice.
