Bigu Dojo.

"That's it for today."

Okita Koji made a beautiful move to put the sword into its sheath, and then with a "whoosh" sound, he reached out his hand and casually wiped the sweat on his cheek.

"good."

Himura Shinta, who was standing in front of her, smiled and nodded.

"Speaking of which, Shinta, you are really getting better and better now." Okita Koji tapped his chin and recalled: "I remember that you have only officially practiced kendo for a few years, right? Now, Teacher Hiko should be ready

Did he teach you his most famous move?"

"Miss Okita, you are not as powerful as you said. In the competition just now, you were obviously the one who showed mercy..."

Himura Shinta smiled and said: "As for that, that's even more impossible. Master has always emphasized to me that kendo attaches great importance to the foundation, and the same goes for Feiten Yuken-ryu. I will not learn anything new in a short period of time."

The sword is drawn."

"hey-hey."

Okita Koji covered his mouth and smiled, and then secretly said: "Some time ago, I heard Master Higu talking about Shirou's childhood. Master Higu said that the thing he regretted most in the first half of his life was to kill him too early.

The secrets of Hiten Ken-ryu were handed over to Shirou, an idiot apprentice, because later on, Shirou, who had learned all the moves of Hiten-Kenden-ryu, rarely came to the dojo, and even later on, he slowly gave up on kendo, so...

, Master Bigu, this is a lesson learned, I am afraid..."

"Ahem~"

A slight cough came from behind Okita Koji, interrupting her next words.

Miss Okita stiffened and turned around.

Hiko Seijuro, who had his arms folded on his chest and the sun on his back, looked at her calmly.

"Ah, Master Bigu, weren't you still in the house just now?"

Miss Okita shook her head and looked cute, but her expression was very embarrassing.

"If you don't come out, I don't know what nonsense you are going to say." Higu Seijuro said calmly: "If you want to bite off more than you can chew, for Shinta at this stage, it is more important to refine the other moves of the school.

"

"I understand, Master."

Himura Shinta nodded.

Miss Okita also nodded: "Master Higu is right."

Hiko Seijuro: "I must have said these words when you asked me to tell you a story."

"ah?"

Miss Okita frowned and fell into deep thought.

Have it?

In addition to telling interesting stories between Shirou and Master Higu, he also said so many reasonable words...

However, soon, Miss Okita no longer cared about such trivial matters.

After having lunch at the dojo and taking a shower, Miss Okita sat under the eaves, looking at the blue sky in trance.

It's May now.

Spring seems to be passing in a blink of an eye, and sometimes I haven't felt the taste of spring yet. Summer seems to be accompanied by continuous sunny days that don't know when, urging everyone to say that it is coming.

Higu Seijuro walked out of the door, glanced at Okita Koji, and asked: "Are you going to see that idiot apprentice this afternoon?"

"Um."

Okita Xiaosi nodded: "I'll be ready to go there in a while."

"Are you alone today?"

"Alone." Okita Koji explained: "Tohsaka-senpai has something to do at home, and she has visited Shirou in the morning, so she has no plans to go there in the afternoon. Matou-senpai will be with her today.

Nakano-san and Matou-senpai went to attend the concert of Nakano-san’s two sisters, but I personally don’t like those things very much except kendo, so I didn’t go with them.”

"That's it."

Higu Seijuro glanced at the absent-minded Okita Koji and asked aloud: "Have you made your travel plans a long time ago? When do you plan to leave Kobe?"

Okita Koji's face suddenly became entangled: "Oh, the plan has indeed been completed. As for when to leave..."

A gentle smile appeared on Higu Seijuro's face: "You can't bear to part with that idiot apprentice who makes you worry, right?"

"Hahaha, Master Higu, Shirou often said that I am the one who doesn't let him worry." Okita Koji paused, lowered his head and said with a smile: "But, indeed, I am a little reluctant to leave."

"Then I won't leave."

Higu Seijuro sat next to Okita Koji, looked at the huge dojo and said: "Anyway, just don't let yourself regret it."

"Yes." Okita Koji shook his head, with a bright smile on his face: "Although I am reluctant to leave, I don't regret it at all. Besides, Master Higu, it's not that I will never see Shirou. I just showed up for a trip.

, visit various Daokan, hone my swordsmanship, and I will naturally come back when the time is right. Moreover, technology is so advanced now, and I am not Mr. Tsuda’s kind of person who rarely uses mobile phones and other things to communicate.

So, even when we are traveling, I can still keep in touch with Shirou every day... Hmm... No, every day may be a bit difficult, after all, once Shirou starts working, it is normal for him not to look at his phone for a few days."

"That stupid apprentice is indeed such a bastard..."

Higu Seijuro couldn't agree more.

Okita Koji smiled softly, raised his head and looked up at the blue sky: "I once had two wishes that must be realized. First, to become a contemporary swordsman in Japan, like Master Higu and Mr. Tsuda, step by step.

To be the best in swordsmanship, the second thing is to help Shirou and become the Saber in his mind.

Now, the second wish has been fulfilled, but the road to becoming a swordsman is still far away.

Actually, I really want to be by Shirou's side like Tohsaka-senpai and Matou-senpai, but they are different from me. They don't have wishes that must be fulfilled like me."

Higu Seijuro said nothing.

He had known the two girls Tohsaka Rin and Matou Sakura very early. Although he was not very familiar with them, he knew their identities.

It is said that both the Tosaka family and the Matou family seem to dote on their daughters?

Living in such a living environment, they would naturally not be the same as Xiao Si.

For the two little girls of the Tohsaka and Matou families, the idiot apprentice is the brightest existence in their world, and is what each other wants to pursue, so their wishes can be derived and changed according to the wishes of the idiot apprentice.

But this little girl, Xiao Si, like me, has lived in an environment full of kendo since she was a child. With her father's wish to live a happy life, the first thing she looks up to is her father's tall back.

That’s why I want to become a swordsman so much.

Even though he likes that idiot apprentice, he also understands that if he continues to stay by his side, he doesn't know when the opportunity will come true for his own wishes.

Wishes and happiness?

How to choose.

Based on his own life experience, Hiko Seijuro felt that he had something to say.

Compared to Tosaka Rin and Matou Sakura, he personally likes Okita Koji in front of him more. Firstly, Okita Koji himself likes him more, and secondly, because he also knows Okita Koji's father, and they had some relationship before.

comminicate.

at this time.

Okita Koji suddenly stood up, smiled and talked to himself.

"I'm not a smart person myself, but if I can't give up either way, then I might as well do both. Now that I've graduated and become an adult, I can just give up on the multiple-choice questions I don't want to do.

.”

Higu Seijuro was stunned for a second.

He smiled slightly and shook his head helplessly.

But Okita Koji looked proud: "It's cool, Master Higu, right?"

"Yes, yes, you are right." Seijuro Higu put aside all his unnecessary thoughts and said with a chuckle: "Sometimes, some of the things young people say on the Internet are quite correct, and only children make choices.

Question, sir, of course I want them all. I won’t be out for long anyway, so I just want to come back as soon as possible.”

"Master Bigu."

"Um?"

"When you said those words just now, you sounded so young that I almost thought you were an old man who had entered old age early."

"Hmph, I'm almost fifty years old after all. People like you, Shirou, Shinta and Tomoe are just little ones in my eyes."

"Master, is it still too late for me to give up the Natural Rishin-ryu and switch to Feitenzhu... Yuken-ryu?"

"That's too late."

Higu Seijuro raised his head slightly, as if to say, 'Can we, the Flying Sword Style, be able to learn any small fish or shrimp?', but then, he looked at Okita Koji's sparkling eyes and said helplessly.

.

"Don't believe what Shirou said. We are the Flying Sword Style, not the Flying Style Style. There is no secret technique to keep people young forever in the style's moves. It's all about different personal physiques.

Also, you are a genius who practices Natural Rishin-ryu. If people later knew that I had lured a talent who could have made Natural Rishin-ryu shine brightly again into Hiten Mitsurugi with something that did not exist at all.
