After saying goodbye in the evening, I went to the cafeteria to eat with Ikki and the others who happened to have finished training at the same time.

This time lasted until one evening every other week.

On this day, Ayase unexpectedly did not come to the training ground.Although there are some doubts and worries, Cao Shurui does not intend to get to the bottom of it.

Ayase's identity is a swordsman.Unless the opponent is also a swordsman, there is almost no possibility of accidents.

There must be something urgent.

Just when Cao Shurui's training alone was coming to an end, Cao Shurui's student handbook received a message from Ayase.

The content is—her father, Mr. Kaito, unexpectedly woke up.

There were only six words, but several lines of exclamation points showed her restless mood.

Haidou had been in a coma for two full years, so his body should be quite weak.

Rehabilitation after that should be very hard.

And... Mr. Kaito's heart disease is still serious.

Ayase should want to spend more time with her father.

Not long after replying a message expressing blessings, Cao Shurui received another message.

"What to do, what to do, my next opponent is actually Kakki Kurogane!"

"Haha. This is really bad luck. With senior sister's current strength, it is impossible to defeat Ikki."

After laughing twice, Cao Shurui's expression also became serious.

Ikki, this guy is really not easy.The more you become familiar with him, the more powerless you feel.

Even after learning Ikki's [One Sword Asura], Cao Shurui still couldn't find a way to defeat Ikki with only swordsmanship.

Ikki's skill from learning swordsmanship from a thief, [imitation swordsmanship], this unsolvable skill that can completely steal the opponent's swordsmanship and improve it as long as the battle lasts for more than 1 minute, is the biggest obstacle in front of Cao Shurui obstacle.

Moreover, Ikki's own sword skills are not something that can be underestimated.

The current Cao Shurui, unless he can defeat Ikki within 30 seconds, or force him to use Ikba Shura and delay for a minute before Ikki sees through his sword skills, has no chance of winning.

And Ayase, let alone.As a fighter, she still has a more fundamental gap with Ikki in terms of [Quality].

"Forget it, let's forget about it. Since the doctor has declared that Mr. Haidou's heart will not survive this winter, it is a miracle to be rejoiced that he can wake up at this time."

Silently wishing Ayase in his heart, Cao Shurui packed his things and headed to the cafeteria.

On the way, Cao Shurui's student handbook rang suddenly.

It was Ayase who called.

"Hey?"

Although he didn't understand what was going on with Ayase, Cao Shurui answered the phone first.

"Are you Cao Shurui? I heard about you. Although you are from the Celestial Dynasty, you will marry Ayase and inherit the dojo right away!"

A bold male voice came out of the receiver.

bump!

Then came a heavy sound.

Suddenly thinking of something, the corners of Cao Shurui's mouth twitched uncontrollably.

"I haven't woken up for two years, but when you woke up, you were talking nonsense! I'm sorry, Cao Shurui! Dad clearly said he wanted to thank you, so I asked him to call, but it turned out to be calling to harass you!"

Ayase's voice was higher than usual due to excessive tension.

"Hahaha, Ayase, stop pretending. You actually like him very much, right? I'm your father, and you can see through this trivial matter at once. When you talk about Cao Shurui, your expression is the same as when your mother fell in love with your father. The expressions are exactly the same!"

"Wow! Wow! Don't talk nonsense, it's not like that!"

"You don't have to be shy. Now that Dad is awake, he needs to help you as a match-"

"Give me another two years of sleep!"

"Whoa! Uh uh..."

Alas!Murder my father!This sound is very bad!Senior sister, your father has heart disease!

"Student Cao, Cao Shurui! Forget all those words just now! Goodbye!"

Click, beep—beep—

"Yeah——Although Kaito-san's voice is a bit lacklustre, there should be nothing wrong with it. It seems that, unlike what the doctor said, he can live for a few more years."

Putting the student handbook back in his pocket, Cao Shurui continued to go to the cafeteria calmly.

What Mr. Haidou said could not shake Cao Shurui's heart.

Cao Shurui is not a piece of wood, and he has more or less noticed it.However, until this phone call, he ignored it on the grounds of "three major illusions in life".

But now, this matter seems to have been put on the table.

But Cao Shurui thought about it and made a decision.

Unless Ayase said it herself, Cao Shurui didn't intend to accept it.
