Chapter 276

~5 min read 867 words

It was this voice again. This time, Ryougi Shiki heard it clearly. She had never heard this voice before, but as the heir to a demon-hunting family, she certainly wouldn't panic. "I want to see what kind of demon or monster dares to come to my Ryougi family. Select Yes." She still chose affirmation.

And at this moment, the screen began to change.

【Day 1: You are practicing swordsmanship at home. Your strength is growing very fast. On this day, your father brings a man in. "From now on, Mr. Lin Ye will teach you swordsmanship until you can truly defeat me."

You don't feel much, just silently nod. You look at this man called Lin Ye before you; he must be very strong.

Your father leaves, and you directly grip the sword at your side, looking at Lin Ye before you, saying indifferently, "Do you know how to use a sword?"

"I know a little bit." Lin Ye uses his thumb and index finger to indicate a small distance.

"That's good, let me test your strength."

After speaking, you directly swing the sword in your hand toward Lin Ye! Facing your attack, Lin Ye doesn't even pick up a weapon; he just uses two fingers to exert force...

Swish!

In an instant, your sword is actually directly caught by Lin Ye using two fingers!】

"What!"

Ryougi Shiki is stunned!

Strong, this man is so strong!

Ryougi Shiki has never seen such helpless strength. The strongest person she has ever fought is her own father, but this man, compared to her father, is like the difference between heaven and earth!

Lin Ye is heaven!

Seeing this scene, Ryougi Shiki becomes excited.

She has had no friends since she was a child. To be precise, she has had no friends at all. And now, in her calm life, she has finally encountered something different. How could she not be excited?

【"Don't be excited, we will have plenty of time to fight in the future."

Lin Ye looks at you with a smile, but you grip the sword in your hand again and say, "Again."】

Looking at your appearance, Lin Ye shakes his head helplessly, then casually picks up a sword from the sword rack.

"It seems you won't be convinced unless I use some real ability. Since that's the case, I'll let you see it."

Wisdom of the Demonic Realm! A++!

Swordsmanship! A++!

"See clearly, Shiki, this! Is true swordsmanship!"

Swish!

Lin Ye's body bows slightly; he assumes a standard sword-drawing stance!

Suddenly! He flashes past. You didn't see Lin Ye's movement at all. By the time you react, the sword in your hand has already snapped, and then, a sword is already placed against your tender neck.

"Is that enough?"】

"I... lost..."

Ryougi Shiki didn't expect to lose just like that. All her years of effort, even for an expert like her father, it was becoming increasingly difficult to defeat her, and this Lin Ye actually won against her just like that?

"However, isn't this better?"

【Day 2: You and Lin Ye practice sword fighting.

Day 3: Practice sword fighting...

Day 10: Practice sword fighting...

Day 30: Practice sword fighting... Your swordsmanship level increases to E.

Day 50: You fight your father. This time, it's a draw.】

"Fifty days, and it's a draw? Lin Ye's swordsmanship is really strong."

In an instant, Shiki-nee is conquered by Lin Ye's strength. She just doesn't know where her father found such a high-level expert. Logically speaking, their Ryougi family shouldn't deserve such an existence to descend.

After all, the four great demon-hunting families sound impressive, but they have long since declined.

【Day 51: You and Lin Ye are practicing sword fighting as usual. Calling it practice, in reality, you can't block a single sword strike from Lin Ye.

After this practice session ends, Lin Ye hands you a towel, then says to you, "Isn't it boring to practice sword fighting so desperately?"

"Boring?" You look at Lin Ye before you, then wipe your sweat before continuing, "If I were as strong as you, I might feel bored."】

Hearing you say this, Lin Ye smiles and holds your hand, saying, "Practicing sword fighting every day will make people stupid. Come, I'll take you out to play."

"Huh?? Play??" You are blankly pulled out of the room by Lin Ye. At this moment, you discover that the outside world is already incredibly lively.

New Year. It turns out that, unknowingly, it is already 1995.

Lin Ye pulls your hand and weaves through the crowd. You see all kinds of people. Lin Ye buys you takoyaki, buys you a kimono, and buys you many interesting little toys. You hold these things and follow Lin Ye blankly.】

Ryougi Shiki looks at this scene blankly. It's not that she hasn't experienced New Year, it's just that her previous New Years weren't much different from usual, let alone going out to play like this with Lin Ye. This was something she couldn't have imagined before.

However, feeling this moment, Ryougi Shiki doesn't even notice that the corners of her mouth have started to lift unknowingly. This feeling... is not bad at all. ===== CHAPTER 278 =====
