Chapter 112

A typical Inazuma-style setting, every place reveals an exquisite and elegant atmosphere.

Clearly!

Every grass, every tree, every stone, and every water in the courtyard was carefully designed and arranged.

Sunlight sprinkled on the ground through the mottled bamboo leaves, forming a beautiful light and shadow painting.

However, in this quiet and beautiful courtyard, there was one place that seemed out of place.

The place for martial arts practice!

On the rock pillars there, there were dense sword marks.

Seemingly indicating countless fierce battles!

"Mr. Lu, please enlighten me!!"

Just after Lu Shu turned into the exquisite courtyard gate.

A cold light flew from the door.

Carrying a trace of cold air, it went straight to Lu Shu.

Sudden attack?

He had to avoid its edge, his figure flashed, and he was instantly ten meters away.

Looked at the wall suspiciously.

Only to see Kamisato Ayaka, dressed in a pure white sword practice suit, standing there prettily.

Holding a long sword with both hands, her eyes firm.

Lu Shu couldn't help but feel a bit stunned.

However!

The two hadn't met many times in total.

Uh, should say just once.

Met at the Adventurers' Guild, and the time of killing the Nobushi on Ritou.

"Miss Ayaka."

"'Sword Technique Guidance' or something, is, has this already started?"

"Naturally!"

"Oh, then I understand, avoiding the attack of the 'sword' is naturally a practice. But what puzzles me is, why do you have to announce yourself before attacking? This doesn't conform to the sword path principles of a sword user."

Lu Shu smiled slightly, expressing confusion.

Sword technique training, right?

As a 'teacher', although he hadn't learned swordsmanship, he also knew.

If a teacher could be sneak-attacked and injured by a student, even if it was a sneak attack, that teacher would also lose the qualification to give guidance.

A teacher should always be stronger than a student, right?

"I am a swordsman, not an assassin."

Kamisato Ayaka's pure white face, like ice, showed a smile like the winter sun.

And the trace of confusion in Lu Shu's heart was almost instantly melted.

This girl is amazing!

"Okay, that's a reason too!"

"Mr. Lu, do you know?"

"The sword is a killing sword."

"Since the birth of the sword path, it has been born for killing."

The voice was calm and firm.

"This sword was prepared by Mother for my coming-of-age ceremony with all her heart."

"But fate is fickle, Mother ultimately didn't wait for the day I grew up and took over this sword."

Kamisato Ayaka's eyes were full of deep longing for her mother.

A trace of sadness crossed her little face.

Then continued.

"The sword is named 'Amenoma Kageuchi', symbolizing its cold air, capable of blowing snow off cherry blossoms piece by piece."

"Mother hoped that I could use it to protect myself and cut off all difficulties in front of me."

After speaking, Kamisato Ayaka waved her long sword firmly, bringing a few breaths of killing intent.

Amenoma Kageuchi pointed.

Her little hand held the long sword and swiped slowly, the blade pulling a silver light in the air.

As if it could cut through the air.

Cold air overflowed.

The surrounding temperature also dropped by a few degrees instantly.

Looking at Kamisato Ayaka's eyes that emitted sharp edges, Lu Shu couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

This moment.

The girl in front of him was no longer the gentle and kind little princess, but a 'samurai' with powerful strength.

In addition, her control over elemental power seemed to have strengthened a bit.

Progress in these few days?

Sure enough, she is a gifted little princess.

"Please enlighten me, Teacher Lu, and see if my elemental power has improved in these days!"

Kamisato Ayaka said this calmly.

Then swung her sword at Lu Shu.

The offensive fell like raindrops.

Swift wind and rain!

Cold and compelling.

"Well done, well done."

Lu Shu didn't understand swordsmanship, so he could only rely on his agile skills to dodge Kamisato Ayaka's attacks.

Looking at those sharp eyes, he was thinking in his heart.

No way?

Could it be that Kamisato Ayaka's 'memory' really has a problem?

The memory of Teyvat is not explained literally, but is a product of the fusion of 'soul', 'emotion', and literal interpretation.

So, Lu Shu had no way to simply extract Kitsune Saiguu's memories to make a puppet.

Because what is produced after simple 'memory' implantation is not Kitsune Saiguu.

Simple memory cannot bring the addition of emotion.

'Emotion' is a product accumulated day by day, over time.

It's not like you can compile a data program and press it inside, and the person who comes alive is exactly the same person.

If you let such a puppet Kitsune Saiguu sacrifice herself?

What might appear is a blackened 'Hanachirusato'.

So he refused Yae Miko.

……

Looking at Kamisato Ayaka's serious eyes, how could Lu Shu not understand!

Earlier, when he used the 'time machine' for the first time, because he was not familiar with it, he landed in the courtyard of Kamisato Ayaka's mother, Kamisato Kayoyo.

Stared at Kamisato Kayoyo, who was boiling tea, for a few seconds.

A mysterious silence.

Even the mother-in-law almost burned her hand.

Then the young Kamisato Ayaka pushed the door and walked in.

The two looked at each other.

After returning to the original timeline again, would Ayaka automatically complete the memories that didn't exist at all?

Seems a bit absurd.

A bit unbelievable.
