The Busujima family, in Japan, is a well-known kendo family, and even once opened a dojo abroad.
Under the cultivation of her parents, Saeko is not only outstanding in kendo, she is also a very humble and gentle woman with extremely strong feminine charm; to call her a ideal woman would not be an exaggeration.
But everything has two sides. Inside Saeko, hides a terrifying tendency toward violence, and even a deeply buried desire for killing.
Every time she trains in kendo and spars with others, the violent tendencies inside her will gradually accumulate.
Desperately suppressing the impulses in her heart, Saeko believes that someone like her, with such a dark side inside, is not worthy of being loved, nor worthy of loving others.
'Just one last time, indulge just one more time, let me see how strong a so-called genius really is...'
Looking at Shin-chan who entered from the main door, Saeko chose to continue sparring with Shin-chan, then immediately go home and find a way to calm her inner self.
Aikou Rokushin walked in front of Shin-chan, offering her own wooden sword with both hands.
"This is the eldest daughter of the Busujima family. The Busujima family is very famous in the first-class (swordsmanship) circle. Can I trouble you to spar with her a bit?"
Leaning close to Shin-chan's ear, Aikou Rokushin carefully said, "This eldest daughter of the Busujima family is very strong. If we can have her join us for the Jade Dragon Banner we might be able to win all the awards for both the men's and women's divisions."
Shin-chan accepted the wooden sword handed over by Aikou Rokushin and looked at Saeko.
A tall and voluptuous figure, purple long hair, but at this moment, on her beautiful face, a hint of desire for killing was hidden.
As a natural swordmaster, Shin-chan could see at a glance the problem with Saeko.
Pouring out all her inner suppression and various negative emotions into kendo, to the extent that she developed a mental demon?
Shin-chan did not understand Saeko's situation in detail, but looking at her, he could guess a few things.
"Shin-chan, currently cultivating self-style kendo at the Musashino dojo."
Under the gaze of everyone in the kendo club, Shin-chan held the wooden sword and slowly walked to stand across from Saeko.
"Shin-chan, do you want to wear protective gear?"
Shin-chan shook his head. He doesn't like wearing this kind of useless protective gear.
"Saeko, heir to the Busujima-style swordsmanship."
'Self-style kendo? Is there such a school?' But ever since Shin-chan picked up the wooden sword and his expression turned serious, Saeko became even more excited.
'This is definitely a master.' Just by standing in front of her with a sword in hand, he could make her feel pressure.
"Let's begin. Let me see the breadth of this so-called genius!"
Saeko entered her stance. In her eyes, there was only Shin-chan holding the wooden sword.
On Shin-chan's body, she saw no trace of someone who has practiced kendo for many years. 'Isn't the Musashino dojo practicing the Kyoshin Meichi-ryu style?'
In the kendo world, most people believe that Kyoshin Meichi-ryu is just a flashy style.
After preparing herself, Saeko found that the Shin-chan opposite her was just casually holding the wooden sword, with no intention of attacking.
Seeing this, Saeko directly chose to strike first and slashed toward Shin-chan with one sword.
Saeko's technique seemed fierce, but in Shin-chan's eyes, it was merely a way to vent inner desires, without any technique to speak of.
Saeko wanted to release it, but dared not do so openly, so she could only keep suppressing the violent urges inside her.
Easily blocking Saeko's aggressive strike, Shin-chan simply used a little force and suppressed her, pushing the wooden sword in her hand down toward her own face.
"Is this your kendo?"
The two wooden swords crossed, blocking half of Shin-chan's face. On this half of his face that Saeko could see, there was only calm. But it was exactly this stillness like still water that made her even angrier inside.
Shaking off Shin-chan's wooden sword, Saeko attacked again. This time she was serious, using the Busujima-style family sword techniques.
But no matter how exquisite her swordsmanship, Shin-chan could easily block it. This feeling of being completely overpowered was terrible and left Saeko depressed, but without realizing it, the violent desires in her heart were also quickly decreasing.
Although Shin-chan said he was practicing self-style kendo, in fact, no such self-style kendo exists. What he originally learned from Musashino Kenta was just some basic swordsmanship.
His current sword skills come entirely from talent and the system's passive of a natural swordmaster.
The so-called "self" is the process of seeking one's own style, pursuing one's own path in swordsmanship.
"Shin-chan is amazing." A gentle female voice came.
Aikou Rokushin clenched her fists with a passionate expression, looking just like a hot-blooded supporting character in a shounen manga. Hearing the voice, she nodded.
"Shin-chan is the most talented person in kendo I've ever seen!"
'Wait, who's talking to me?' Aikou Rokushin turned her head and discovered that at some unknown time, a girl had appeared next to her.
'Damn it, how did I not notice? Where's my alertness as a kendo practitioner?'
The suddenly appearing girl was, of course, Kato Megumi. She was originally preparing to leave the classroom and go home, but after seeing Shin-chan brought to the kendo club by Hiratsuka Shizuka, she didn't know why, but chose to follow.
At this moment, Shin-chan was no longer just defending and started his own offense. His sword had no form or pattern at all, just casually slashing, but every strike made it hard for Saeko to defend.
She could feel it, Shin-chan wasn't using his full strength, or rather, he wasn't even being serious. This boy was definitely stronger than her father.
The duel between the two lasted more than ten minutes. Saeko's face was slightly red, dripping with fragrant sweat, and her panting appearance stirred one's imagination.
With a bang, Saeko finally couldn't hold on, lost grip of the wooden sword in her hand, and it flew out.
"I lost..."
Crushed by someone of the same age, but losing to Shin-chan, Saeko felt great. The suppression in her heart was completely swept away.
The strained father-daughter relationship, the unreachable kendo dream, the violent desire born from contradiction, all of it was vented.
'Shin-chan...'
Looking at the man in front of her, Saeko felt an unprecedented sense of ease. This was also the result of Shin-chan deliberately feeding her moves, guiding her to release the inner violence without excessive suppression.
"Will you join the kendo club?"
"Of course. I'm going to participate in this Jade Dragon Banner."
"Then please guide me from now on."
Without picking up the wooden sword on the ground, Saeko took two steps forward and extended her hand to Shin-chan.
"Please guide me well."
The Saeko without a wooden sword revealed gentleness in her every action, like a spring breeze.
Shin-chan had zero resistance to this type of well-bodied, gentle beauty. While shaking hands with Saeko, he scratched his head and turned his face with a silly smile, completely without the demeanor of a swordmaster.
"Shin-chan's popularity with women is surprisingly good."
"Hahaha, no need to praise me like that, Megumi."
'I was already noticed?' The slightly jealous Kato Megumi froze for a moment, she hadn't expected that Shin-chan had already noticed her long ago.
