The world of Type-Moon starts with saving Altria!

In duels, she is a ruthless swordsman;

But at this moment, she is a girl full of emotion.

"No wonder I gasp for air every night..."

"you……"

Kondo Isami looked at the deep wound and his expression became distressed.

"Hey, if only I had stopped you back then... With such a serious injury, even if it heals, it will only be a broken bone..."

"..."

Seeing Okita Souji and Kondo Isami becoming sad because of him, Ian quickly spoke:

"You two, what are you doing?!"

"Today is your winning streak day, why are you so unhappy because of me?"

"This wound...is not as terrible as you think!"

Having said this, Ian turned his arms, trying to prove that Shannan Shusuke had not caused any actual harm to him.

however--

It was as if he wanted to tell Okita Souji and Kondo Isami how brutal the battle that day was.

Ian had only turned twice when he grimaced in pain.

Seeing him like this, Okita Souji quickly grabbed his arm and made him stop.

"Fool--!"

"You're still moving around when it hurts so much, do you want the wound to never heal?!"

"This one……"

Ian forced an awkward smile.

"I...I'm really fine, don't worry."

"..."

Realizing that this might become an endless cycle of sad moments, Kondo Isami quickly spoke:

"never mind!"

"Let's not talk about this today—Saizo is right, we've worked so hard to achieve this level of winning streak!"

"Look, now even the bathing area has been given to us!"

"We should really be happy!"

"Yes, that's right!" Souji Okita wiped away the tears that were about to flow, and then said with a smile.

"You really should be happier!"

"That's right! Hahaha!" Ian completed the final outline of the atmosphere.

then--

The three of them cleverly avoided the topic of the wound, and then leaned against the edge of the bathtub from left to right.

"Speaking of -"

Ian, on the far right, was the first to speak.

"You've had so many duels, and yet you've never encountered anyone you can call your opponent?"

"Yes."

Kondo Isami nodded.

"They're all just rotten fish and scum—opponents of the level of Shannan Shusuke that day have never appeared again."

"This……"

Ian fell into deep thought.

And Okita Souji quickly realized what he was thinking about - since coming to Mibu Village, she found that he was thinking more and more than before.

"Sai San, have you discovered something again?"

"It's not that I discovered anything - I just felt it was a bit dangerous."

"Danger?"

Kondo Isami on the far left moved closer to Okita Souji in the middle, trying to hear more carefully.

"Yes."

Ian nodded.

"Think about it... Mr. Eight said that people from all over the country gathered in Mibu Village, all for the purpose of gaining the Shogun's appreciation."

"Although most of them are hooligans, even though our 'duel' has become so arrogant, there is still no master."

"Don't those who come to challenge us realize this?"

"..."

Okita Souji suddenly understood something.

"Sai San, are you saying that these are all people who were arranged in advance?"

"That's a possibility, Okita."

"Then why do you do this?" Kondo Isami asked, "If you come here to die, won't it just increase our reputation?"

“So this is the scary part…”

Ian held his chin.

"You think you would rather increase our reputation than keep sending people to test us."

"That……"

"Aren't you planning to completely master us?"

"..."

"..."

Ian's words made both Kondo Isami and Okita Souji realize the crisis.

"The one who appears later...will be the real master?" said Okita Souji.

"And... is he an expert who understands us?" Kondo Isami added.

"..."

Realizing that he seemed to have made the atmosphere even more tense, Ian quickly added.

"It's just a guess - maybe they are just that bad, hahaha, don't be so nervous."

"..."

"Xiaoyong, come here for a moment."

"Ok?"

Although he didn't quite understand why Souji Okita called him at this time, Kondo Isami still leaned over.

"what happened?"

"Teach me how to help Sui San with this..."

Having said this, Okita Souji made a magical gesture with his hands and hinted at something.

Kondo Isami understood what it was almost instantly.

"No, why are you...doing this now?"

"Can't you see?"

Souji Okita secretly glanced at Ian who was thinking.

"Saisan is really tired and nervous right now—he's actually more worried than we are."

"originally……"

Okita Souji glanced underwater.

"We should have used other methods... but that doesn't seem like a good idea right now."

"So, Xiaoyong, please teach me!"

"But I don't know how to do it either..." Kondo Isami said with embarrassment, "I understand what you mean, but I can't help you."

"No!"

Okita Souji shook his head.

"Xiaoyong, you will—"

"No, even if you can, there's no way to teach it, right?"

"Yes~"

Okita Souji grabbed Kondo Isami's hand.

"Why don't we just give practical lessons? Saizo is right there anyway, right?!"

"No?! Okita you!"

Before Kondo Isami could finish his words, Okita Souji waved his hand towards Ian.

"Saisan——"

"I have something to ask of you—"

"Xiaoyong is coming too——"

It was an extremely long bathing process.

"So happy~" Okita Souji said with a smile as he supported Ian, "It turns out that taking a comfortable bath with Xiaoyong is so fun——"

"It's not fun at all!"

On the other side, Kondo Isami, who was also supporting Ian, couldn't help but fight back.

However, after saying this, she added another sentence.

"Okita, you..."

"Shh-"

Okita Souji pointed with his fingers.

"This will be our regular program from now on—"

"Xiaoyong, we said we would be good friends for life, didn't we?"

"..."

Kondo Isami's expression gradually changed from guilt to emotion, and finally to a smile.

"Too--"

"Next time, let's strive to achieve a situation where it's easier to invest!"

"it is good!"

On the village road at sunset, two girls reached a strange contract.

【Okita Souji and Kondo Isami's winning streak continues. 】

[As two people who have received orthodox training, it is quite easy to deal with these so-called "ronin" groups composed of hooligans and ruffians.]

The name "Tenen Rishin-ryu" gradually spread throughout Mibu Village, a place known for its abundance of talented people.
