The world of Type-Moon starts with saving Altria!

"I know you're all wondering what 'Natural Rishin Flow' is—it's okay, I'll tell you right now, exactly what it is!"

Saying such words.

Ian, Okita Souji and Kondo Isami, holding swords, appeared in front of everyone.

The beasts of Aoba Castle—

Almost everyone was stunned in an instant.

And this is exactly what Kiyono Hachiro wants!

"Everyone——"

"The opportunity to learn that kind of swordsmanship doesn't come around every day."

【It can be said that Seino Hachiro's plan was a great success. 】

[After all, your reputation in Mibu Village is quite impressive.]

【but--】

[Although it is under your name, the ones who actually teach it are not you, but Kiyono Hachiro and the people he found.]

The reason is simple:

He's not a dull person. If someone does learn something, it will be a huge problem.

[Furthermore, if I were to accept the challenge and recruit disciples at the same time, it would be a waste of unnecessary energy.]

【so--】

[You absolutely cannot do this.]

[Luckily, although Seino Hachiro's teaching level is a bit good, those ronin from all over Edo are even worse.]

[After a while, no one was surprised by this. Instead, they exclaimed in amazement that this was what the way of the sword really was.]

[For a while, the number of people coming to challenge you decreased significantly, while the number of people coming to learn from you increased significantly.]

【Kiyono Hachiro, really made a lot of money. 】

【only……】

[Some things seem to be slowly sowing seeds.]

One night.

Holding a basin of hot water, Kondo Isami came to Ian's room.

Although it was not the first time she did this, she still felt her heart pounding.

Just swipe it.

Kondo Isami opened the thick shoji door and saw a rather unexpected scene.

I saw Ian sitting there in meditation, looking very serious.

His shirt had already been taken off in the process, revealing his extremely strong muscles.

only……

The scar left by Yamanami Keisuke was also shocking.

Just one look at it would make people feel painful.

"Who?"

As if he noticed the footsteps, Ian stopped meditating and said without turning his head.

"Xiaoyong, is that you?"

"..."

"You actually knew that." Kondo Isami said with some surprise - she thought the other party would turn around and see her, but she didn't expect that he would figure it out as soon as he came in.

"Because Xiaoyong's steps are too obvious."

"Light and fast."

Ian turned back.

"It's different from Okita."

"..."

"is it?"

When mentioning Okita Souji, Kondo Isami felt a little guilty.

She subconsciously avoided the topic and came to Ian.

"Let me help you change the medicine—"

"it is good."

With Ian's response, Kondo Isami sat behind him and then patiently cleaned the wound.

to be honest--

If it weren't for him, Kondo Isami felt that he would never have such patience.

Others... aren't worth it.

The girl's contemplation did not last long, because with Ian's cold snort, she quickly realized the other's pain.

"Saisan... is it still painful?"

"Hmm...sort of."

"Why won't this wound heal? How can you wield the knife if it continues like this?"

"It's okay. It'll be fine."

Ian said with a very forced smile.

"This isn't the first time I've been hurt like this—Xiaoyong, you don't have to worry."

"..."

Kondo Isami was silent for a while, and then didn't say much.

She just silently pressed her body against his side, trying to comfort him in this way.

"I'm not worried about you—big idiot Saizo."

The girl said this, but gently kissed his neck.

This isn't considered stealing...

She couldn't help but think so.

[Occasional episodes will not affect the surging tide of the times.]

【Kiyono Hachiro's plan continues.】

[He recruited a large number of ronin from Edo in your name.]

[A month later, he officially incorporated the ronin who had gathered together on the basis of the Qingye Dojo, and this became the "Ronin Group."]

【certainly. 】

[He hasn't forgotten the three of you. After forming the "Ronin Group," he assigned you your respective roles.]

[The size of the Ronin group also gradually expanded through this recruitment process.]

【finally--】

[After almost the entire Mibu Village knew about the organization "Ronin Group", you welcomed a special guest.]

[But he is not a member of the Edo ronin organization, but the target you were trying to contact before.]

【Yes. 】

[That is the General! ]

877. Are These Your Two Wives? / A Visit from Yamanami Keisuke (4k)

"..."

Looking at the letter brought by Kiyono Hachiro, Ian could hardly believe his eyes.

"Master Ba, is this a letter from the General?"

"Yes!"

Kiyono Hachiro seemed even more excited than Ian. He probably didn't expect to receive a letter from the general at this time.

"We've made a killing this time—this is a letter from the General! Most people wouldn't have the luxury of such a gift!"

"Why are you still dawdling here? Hurry up and take it apart to see what's going on?!"

Kondo Isami grumbled, looking quite dissatisfied.

"What if the things inside are not what we think, then it will be troublesome."

"Too."

Kiyono Hachiro was so happy that he ignored Kondo Isami's rudeness towards him.

With a swish, he tore the envelope open and then carefully read the contents inside.

As he spoke more and more, Kiyono Hachiro's tone became happier and happier, and he looked as if he had been rewarded by the general in person.

but--

In the eyes of others, those words don't sound like what they really are, and can even be said to be a bit polite.

No matter how you listen to it, what the General showed here seemed to be just some intention to recruit the Ronin Group.

"..."

"Although it might not be nice to say something like this at this time, but... it seems to be just an ordinary letter of surrender, right?"

Ian played the bad guy and temporarily pulled Kiyono Hachiro back from his joy.

"Master Ba, your reaction seems a bit too much."

"What do you know?"

Kiyono Hachiro waved the letter in his hand, looking very excited and excited.

If we say now that he is a psychopath, I am afraid no one will object at this time.

"Do you know?! I've been waiting for this day for a long, long time?!"

"Now that the general has arrived, the sky of Kyoto will become bright again!"

"You country folks don't know anything!"

"..."

Ian really wanted to say something, but he knew that Kiyono Hachiro would not listen to him no matter what.

tentatively……

Let him get excited about this idea for a while. Once he calms down, we should be able to continue communicating.

"I understand." Ian said in a restrained tone, "I have some things to do, so I'll be out for now."

"..."

"..."

Seeing Ian taking his leave first, Okita Souji and Kondo Isami looked at each other, then stood up and said similar things.

"Then... let's go out first."

"Eighth Master, see you later."

【So——】

[The three of you left the room where Seino Hachiro was.]

[However, you can still hear the almost crazy laughter coming from the room from time to time.]

[This sound stays with you until you walk away and then gradually disappear.]
