Re:Zero - Jobless Reincarnation: Succubus Sword God? I don't recognize it!

Chapter 282: Alice is going to challenge the Mizukami Ryu Dojo?
People always say that you can tell a person’s future from his childhood.

This is true.

When people are children, they have not yet experienced the twists and turns of growing up, and have not seen the ups and downs of life.

Nature is to look at and approach the world from the heart and with the freest attitude.

then.

Make a wish that you will change the world in the future.

Leave your own mark in this world.

That’s what childish innocence is all about.

Ariel is no exception.

This was the fundamental reason why she, who was only eleven years old, revealed her true feelings in the dark.

However, the innocence of childhood was long gone. Ariel was quickly immersed in various desires. After the age of five, she fell rapidly towards the moral low point as if she was on a roller coaster.

He turned into a pervert who sat in the back garden every day drinking tea and teasing the maids by lifting their clothes to see what color they were.

Being born in a place like the Silver Palace, some things are changed naturally, without even realizing it.

Even enjoying it.

Until after the life-and-death crisis, in the midst of huge changes, when he was forced to fight for a future, he felt nothing different when he looked at the Altier River Dam when he left the capital.

Certain memories came back from childhood.

Only then did she realize it.

Oh, so this is how I was in the past.

'Innocent'.

Rumble.

The light jumped out from her eyes, pulling out a light gate from under her sight, slowly rising in front of Ariel's face.

The gates of the second and final lock chamber rose.

"Oh!!"

As a red-haired girl exclaimed, the magnificent scene of the capital city, which was a part of Ariel's daily life, came into view.

The castle located on the hill in the distance exudes a soft silver glow in the morning light. The glittering silver ribbons suddenly meander around the capital. The Altier River flows down from the mountain, constantly stretching its body and flowing through four city walls.

The aristocratic district is lined with mansions, and it looks luxurious even from a distance.

A free zone with a variety of unique buildings that have never been seen before.

The houses are neatly arranged, the roads are straight and crisscrossed, and it looks like a very "regular" civilian area.

There are many shops and an adventurer resettlement area with many small markets suitable for adventurers to set up stalls.

Then, outside the fifth city wall, the messy street scenes intertwined with each other, extending endlessly beyond the horizon.

The outskirts of the royal capital.

Thanks to the fact that the foundation of the Altier River Dam was raised by dozens of meters to form a small hill, this scene could be seen by everyone.

Ars was like a shy girl, having all her clothes stripped off layer by layer by the morning light and the morning glow, revealing herself to everyone's eyes.

Ariel put on her clothes again and waved to the cheers of the staff at the dam on both sides and the resident adventurers who got up early in the morning to set up stalls at the market at the edge of the resettlement area.

But his eyes were looking forward.

——Alan’s back was outlined by flames in the morning light.

It seems that there is a wise monarch, a great goal, a distant future, and the glory of the kingdom.

This kind of thing had no appeal to him, and he didn't even bother to agree with it.

In some ways Alan Boreas Greyrat was too clear to be aristocratic.

But in some ways, he is a typical aristocrat in the royal capital.

In Ariel's sight, the master of keeping balance, Allen, was holding Alice, who had suddenly fallen ill and jumped onto the fence, with one hand, and holding the hand of Sylphy, whose face was flushed, with the other hand. He teased Rudy who was still staring at the gate in a daze, and turned to Izuruti and lamented that the capital was still so prosperous.

This person's body is covered with tiny details.
'desire'.

But it has nothing to do with Ariel.

It can be judged from the fact that several people are gathered together on the huge deck, but are more than three meters away from Ariel. As everyone enters the royal capital, the gap between their identities and the shallowness of their intersections are so conspicuously laid out in front of everyone.

Ariel dropped her eyes.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Suddenly, she understood.

The method of recruiting Allen was not complicated.

Just stand in the 'position' where he is willing to give up his desires.

Thinking of this, she walked over to the group of people, and under Alan's surprised gaze, she walked to the side of the crowd.

Pointing into the distance.

Start with the one who knows best.

"Mr. Rudeus, look, that's the free zone."

"It's more spectacular than I thought." Rudy looked at the view of the entire capital from a distance. Even though he had expected it, the prosperity of the capital still surprised the old Neet. Then he suddenly realized that it was Ariel who was talking to him, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at Ariel.

The morning light shone on her body, and with her serious and dignified expression, her golden and white hair seemed to flow in the wind.

Rudy couldn't help but feel that Ariel was indeed the princess of Asura, the world's largest human nation. She was just standing casually at the bow, but she actually gave off a sense of solemnity and dignity.

Coupled with Ariel's foresight on the application of magic circles in the lock chamber, it really is what a ruler of a country should have.
"To repay your kindness in saving me, do you want me to arrange for my servants to take you to the Flower Street tonight to experience the charm of the capital? I heard there are girls with particularly large breasts, and there are also many choices in terms of race."

Wei.Yi.
? ?
Rudy stared blankly: "Huh???"

Allen looked at Ariel in astonishment: "Huh???"

Isaruti seemed to be thinking of the distant past: "????"

Sylphy looked down at her chest: "!!!!"

Dilik opened his mouth repeatedly like a goldfish, looking very helpless. After enduring for a long time, he finally couldn't hold it in anymore and shouted out loud.

"Your Highness!!!"

As for Alice, her eyes suddenly lit up and she turned to Ariel and asked loudly.

“Are there any beastmen? Ugh!!!!”

Before he could finish the rest of the sentence, Alan covered his mouth.

Amidst the various expressions on everyone's faces, Ariel folded her hands on the mast in front of her and looked at everyone's different expressions with a smile.

Calm.

'very good. ’

'The first step is to break down the barriers caused by identity and lay the foundation for building further relationships.'

'Finish. '

-

So when everyone arrived in the capital, they immediately went straight to the flower street to have fun.

Allen was with Izuruti and Sylphy, Rudy ordered ten young ladies, and Alice hugged the beast girl and sucked her hard.

Ariel was cheering for everyone on the side.

It is impossible.

It was daytime, no matter what Rudy was thinking, Ariel was eager to introduce to Rudy the differences in the feel and visual features of the girls in the royal capital and the girls in Fitoya Territory.

It is impossible for Alan to go to Flower Street first.

Just let Ariel use this method which is similar to self-defilement but is actually just as dirty to pull closer to them.

The sailboat was sailing with full sails, and it sailed straight along the Altir River towards the capital. The people lined the streets and cheered until their voices broke. The cheers reached their peak when they passed the Laplace Victory Gate, which was shaped like a triumphal arch at the junction of the civilian area and the free area.

Finally, the river gradually calmed down after everyone passed Opera Street and turned into a tributary in a narrow river.

And behind a bend in the river.

disappeared.

Why?

Because the river area where everyone was located was no longer in a place where they could make loud noises.

At this time, in everyone's sight, there was only a very deserted pier on the south side of the tributary river which was more than ten meters wide.

On the dock, just a few steps away, there are simple walls with white walls and black tiles on both sides, wrapping around several wide, high-roofed, single-story white brick buildings that resemble stadiums.

Compared to the huge and magnificent opera house we just saw.

He is not very good-looking.

This was the first stop that everyone agreed upon after discussing on the boat.

——The main dojo of the Mizugami-ryu school.

"We're here. I always said that the dock next to the dojo was useless, but today it came in handy for me."

The boat they were on had already retracted its main sail, and the boatman was adjusting the secondary sail as they headed towards the dock. Alan stood at the bow, looking at the Water God Ryuso Dojo in the distance, with a slightly nostalgic look in his eyes.

I thought the next time I would come back here would be in the battle for the throne of Asura a few years later, but I didn't expect to come back here again in just over two years.

but
More than two years, it’s been a long time.

Alice looked at the two ordinary black and white buildings not far away, which were surrounded by two-meter-high walls and had a completely different style from other buildings in the Free Zone. She frowned and pouted. The child had been looking forward to "the place where her brother practiced sword" all the way. It should have special effects such as sparks and lightning, but this is it?
She couldn't help but have a look of disappointment on her face: "Is this the main dojo of the Mizugami-ryu!?"

Isaruti narrowed her eyes and continued.

"Yes. It's not quite what I expected. Does it feel a little too plain?"

Alice didn't answer.

Isaruti was about to continue explaining, but Alan interrupted her.

"The dojo was built according to the regulations of the Holy Land of Swords. It is said that many years ago, Her Majesty Leda (this is a title, not a name) wanted to build a large-scale building, but she finally chose this simple style. Compared with other overly extravagant architectural regulations, this style can make the hearts of sword practitioners 'stay'."

"When a swordsman steps into the dojo, his thoughts should be on the sword in his hand, not on these superficial external things."

Alan pointed at the eaves of the larger gymnasium-like building in the Suishin-ryu Dojo and continued.

"And some nobles who always wanted to use the Mizugami-ryu main dojo as a springboard were often trapped in the Mizugami-ryu main dojo for their entire lives. In the end, they never even entered the door of the small dojo. They left the Mizugami-ryu dojo in a hurry when they were fifteen."

"Did they come to the Mizugami-ryu Dojo with the original intention of learning swordsmanship?"

“If your mind is not focused, you cannot be sincere.”

"Alice, your swordsmanship skills and basic skills are already in place. You just need to focus a little more, a little more, and a little more."

"The Saint level is to take things from the bag."

"The sword of light is no longer far away."

Sylphy and Rudy both blinked and looked at Alan. Even though Alan was a very lively person in his daily life, he could make jokes and spoke very naturally.

But when it comes to swordsmanship, he immediately becomes serious and speaks solemnly.

Whether discussing with Paul in Buena Village, or asking for advice from Roya and Gileno, he also said that he was now teaching Alice as a master.

This is all the case.

The two turned to look at Alice, and at the same time, Ariel, who was watching on the side, also looked over.

Everyone knew that Alice was a chatterbox and was waiting for her to respond.

Unexpectedly, the latter took a deep breath after hearing what Allen said.

Closed his eyes.

"Ouch!"

The boatman rowing nearby caught a fish underwater.

The fish emerged from the river, flicked its tail in the air, and then fell back into the water.

With a snap, water splashed.

Alice opened her eyes, and the lost look in her eyes just now disappeared, replaced by...

Fiery pupils!
She raised her chin, crossed her arms over her chest, and turned to Alan and shouted.

"it is good!"

"I want to challenge!"

As the words were spoken word by word, Sylphy, Rudy, and Izuru were stunned for a moment, unable to understand Alice's strange logic.

Alan was talking to you about swords, why did you suddenly change the subject to a challenge?

Allen smiled.

He knew very well that Alice had been asking along the way what exactly the expectations of the Mizugami-ryu main dojo were.

It's nothing more than the story of Isa Luti who challenged the opponent to the first place and was talked about again and again.

Alice wants to follow in Allen's footsteps.

This is the fire of her 'desire'.

however.

"No."

Alice looked up in dissatisfaction.

"Why!?"

Isa Luti on the side smiled helplessly when she heard this.

By this time the boat had already docked at the pier. The boatman dropped anchor quickly, and someone lowered the spiral staircase to get off the boat first, leading to the pier's boarding platform, firmly connecting the boat to the pier.

Alan shook his head and stepped onto the platform, heading towards the dock.

"You are the Sword God Style. We are the Water God Style."

Alice followed closely behind, her red hair rolling in the air, with a big question mark on her little head.

"Yes!"

Alan stroked his forehead, and Rudy and Sylphy behind them also reacted. The former looked at Alice as if she was an idiot, while the latter looked at her with pursed lips dotingly.

"You are a disciple of Gilenu, who is taught by Menxu Jiechuan. You are a disciple of the Sword God School of the Holy Land of Swords. We are a disciple of His Majesty the Water God Retan, and we are disciples of the Ars Water God School."

"Yup!"

"What's right?" Allen stepped on the dock. "It's called a challenge between us fellow disciples. How can you call it a challenge when you come from the Holy Land of Swords?"

Alice finally realized something was wrong and glared at Rudy, whose mouth was twitching. Rudy was so scared that he instinctively hugged his head.

"If that's not a challenge, then what is it?"

Alan stopped and turned to look at Alice's face.

"That's called provocation, that's called kicking the door."

As soon as the voice reached here, Alan turned his head and looked behind him.

"Why did you guys follow?"

Ariel and Dilic followed the others silently. When Alan looked back at her, she smiled peacefully.

Ariel's expression didn't change at all, she just replied with a smile.

"Come and watch the challenge."
