Under the cover of night, the Uchiha clan land is very peaceful,

The ninjas who haven't returned home for a long time have unloaded their tiredness after returning to a warm and comfortable environment.

They were warm with their wives and chatted with their families......

The water called happiness slowly soothed their nerves that were tense from the war, but it would take a long time to really ease down from that emotion.

As a member of the battlefield, Itachi is much calmer than the others.

Lying on his bed for the first time in a long time, he looked at the endless starry sky with his eyes following the window.

But Itachi's mind is not outside the house, but inside.

His thoughts fell not far away, and Artoria was sitting with her eyes closed.

Do you see your own shadow in me?

Thinking back to the conversation he had with her, Itachi could probably understand her thoughts.

Artoria considered her a failed king to Great Britain.

Guarding Great Britain was almost a duty she had been given since birth, and the failure to fulfill this duty was a great blow to her.

What's even more fatal is that in the process, she doesn't understand which direction of her rule has gone wrong.

So Artoria wants to perfect her royal path by cultivating herself.

But will I be her shadow as she thinks?

Itachi slowly withdrew his gaze from the starry sky and closed his eyes.

Since there is no direction for the time being, it is better to try to hear her thoughts.

Anyway......

If you want to have the power to decide your fate in this world, with her help, you may be able to go faster.

……

early morning

After breakfast,

When Itachi Uchiha explained her request, Artoria looked a little surprised.

"Have you really decided? I am not a qualified instructor. ”

In the courtyard, she stared at the figure in front of her, "And what I have in my hands may not necessarily apply to your world. ”

"After seeing your father's power, I learned one thing, and that is that the ninja is far more powerful than I thought."

"If you ask me for advice, it may not be of much help to you in your life later in life."

Itachi was very calm about her reminder, and replied:

"I'm not trying to give up the power of ninjas and choose another path."

"For me, it's not impossible to walk the two paths together."

"Lord Artoria, as someone who has read your memories, knows very well what I am about to learn from you."

Although his demeanor and tone were calm, there was a sense of confidence in his words.

"Do you want to go two roads together......"

Artoria muttered, as someone who had seen Itachi's memories, she didn't doubt the possibility.

So soon, her expression became serious, "In that case, I will treat you as harshly as my teacher did when he first taught me, please be prepared." ”

Itachi nodded, "Of course." ”

"So ......"

Artoria looked at the beautiful courtyard, "Let's change the venue now, this doesn't seem to be a suitable training place." ”

"Please follow me."

Itachi is also aware of this problem, "There is a forest near the clan land, where my father used to guide my training. ”

As he spoke, he first mentioned to his mother that he was going out, and he stepped forward to lead the way.

As he left the clan, he suddenly remembered something, "Are we going to do swordsmanship training next?" Maybe...... Should I buy a sword first? ”

From Artoria's request to go out, Itachi could tell that it should be a practical lesson.

And in her memory, the first practical combat lesson she received was swordsmanship.

In swordsmanship, her teacher taught her what knightly glory.

"No, no, no."

Artoria stopped him, "The study of swordsmanship requires a strong physique as a foundation. ”

"Because I have the blood of a red dragon in my body, I am much stronger than ordinary humans in terms of physique, so I can directly practice swordsmanship."

"And you ...... You need to temper your physique first. ”

Temper your physique?

Itachi's gaze was a little confused.

"It's going to be hard to get physical."

Artoria continued, "And what is tested in this process is not pure talent, but also requires a lot of hard work and sweat to accumulate. ”

"Although I have not tried physical tempering, every knight who has ever been under my command has a shadow of similar physical tempering."

"Itachi, your talent may be very high, but the next guidance is to exercise your perseverance!"

……

"This is the British royal family's tempering method for future generations, and each generation of princes needs to temper themselves in this way."

In the forest,

Artoria was elegantly sitting on a stump that had been completely severed, her waist and legs were almost at a right angle of ninety degrees, "The royal family sits on everything in the whole of Great Britain, and the physical skills that their ancestors have sorted out for generations are naturally the most extreme. ”

"A prince who can complete this training in its entirety, after becoming a king, will not be weaker than other countries in terms of ability to govern the country, but at least in terms of bravery and will."

And just not far from her.

Under the sun, Uchiha Itachi was half-naked, maintaining an extremely strange posture,

The spine is straight, the feet are bent, the left hand is clenched into a fist, and the arm is facing vertically downward.

And on its thin body, it is white and has no sense of strength.

But soon, as the ferret breathed and breathed,

The muscles of his body seemed to come to life, and they jumped flexibly, as if a small snake was swimming on his body.

In fact, it was not a small snake, but the power of qi and blood in the weasel's body, that is, pure physical energy.

Whew-

As the physical energy is manipulated by consciousness to conform to the posture it unfolds, the ferret can feel that the body is getting heavier and heavier.

It's as if something is pressing on you, and it's breathless.

And under this strong sense of oppression, my body has a feeling of becoming more and more inflated.

"Keep your breath steady, as the faster the power of qi and blood flows through your body, your body will get heavier and heavier."

Artoria's voice sounded at the right time, "In this process, your qi and blood will rush like a river, and your body is now like a ...... Small streams. ”

"You need to grit your teeth, you need to be firm in your will, and you need to make your body familiar with and adapt to this change by all means, and gradually let your body become a river and a sea."

"Otherwise...... It will probably be like a fragile bridge under the boiling water, and it will be directly washed away. ”
