Sky Eater Traveler

In the bamboo forest building, the two are still living their daily lives quietly.

The boy who has passed the cognition threshold of his own 'devouring' power, is training his power more and more for the future actions.Five years of holding a sword, and the results of three years of practice finally burst out at this time.Under the accumulation of thin hair, this familiar and slightly different power is progressing rapidly, and the most important vortex channel is finally expanding wildly under this power.

' It seems that it is not difficult to restore the power of 'devour' to the level of Zanpakutō before offering sacrifices to the sky. '

The young man couldn't help but look up at the sky.A messenger from the Fujiwara family came to report that the woman passed away today.But he didn't step out of this small building after all, and the woman's request to him was still whispering in his ear.He will go to Fujiwara House, but not today.

Three days later, Ye Qiu brought Kaguya to Fujiwara House again. On this day, Meihong had just left her filial piety.

In the hall, Ye Qiu sat unceremoniously in the main seat, and Fujiwara sat next to him.A crowd of wives, concubines and relatives were all in the hall, and only Sister Hong stood in the center of the hall, receiving the attention of all.

"Would you like to worship me as a teacher, Sister Hong?" Simple and direct, even a little abrupt, the young man said what he meant.

That's what the woman wanted.

Known daughter Moruomu!Meihong is a very strong girl, and the wives and concubines look down on the children born by this maid, sneering and making things difficult, even harsher than the servants.But this strong girl was not overwhelmed by such a living environment, and life has sharpened his strength bit by bit.Until one day, when this strength became fragile under the bad news, a teenager inadvertently broke into her life.

He is strong, easy-going, gentle, and strange. His arrival not only broke the bad news for the girl, but also allowed the girl to lead a new life.The wives and concubines who made things difficult for her in every possible way put away their cynicism, and even the brothers and sisters who often bullied her only snorted when they saw her, and did not dare to be more presumptuous.The girl knows who brought all this for her, so she is grateful, longing, and curious...

Gradually, the girl was branded as a boy in her heart.Just like a seed, another kind of feeling gradually sprouted from the short but happy time with the teenager.

The woman saw everything in her eyes but did not stop her, until she finally found out the truth and knelt on the ground begging for a false name for her daughter.In the eyes of everyone in the family, the girl has already been marked as a teenager.If the boy abandons her, the girl's fate will inevitably be miserable, so she wants the boy to give her daughter a status, even if it is a nominal teacher-apprentice status.

A name that can stifle a girl's budding relationship, a name that can protect her daughter's life.This is what a woman asks for her daughter before she dies.

But Ye Qiu disdains this nominal thing, since even his daughter has recognized one, what's the harm in accepting a real apprentice!

"...What?" There was an uproar in the hall, and it was a great honor to be accepted as an apprentice by the emperor's teacher.In a sense, calling the Emperor a senior brother is nothing but a matter of reaching the sky in one step!

At this moment, the gazes of the family members in the hall looking at Meihong completely changed their expressions.I heard that a maid's daughter was favored by a high-ranking man in the kingdom, but I didn't expect that this maid's daughter would actually spread her wings and become a phoenix one day.

"Silence!" Fujiwara, who was sitting on the side seat, was stunned for a moment, and then slapped the armrest to suppress the clamor.

Fujiwara Buwai looked sideways at the boy in the main seat. He originally thought that the boy's big battle was for a marriage proposal, but he didn't expect it to end like this.It wasn't the best ending, but it certainly wasn't bad either.The only pity is that Meihong is a daughter, and even if she really learns a skill, she will eventually become a woman in someone else's family.

Women of this era are only vassals after all and cannot inherit the throne.But even so, it cannot be denied that this is a blessing.

"Meihong, what do you think?" Looking at his daughter who was still in a daze, Fujiwara asked again as if waiting for a reminder.

"...Ah??" Meihong was slightly at a loss, not knowing how to respond for a while.Logically speaking, I should have promised it right away, and it is such an honor to be the disciple of an adult.But an emotion that didn't know when to spread prevented the decision.

Reason told her that she should perform the ceremony of apprenticeship at this time, but for some reason, she refused this ceremony from the bottom of her heart.She felt that if she knelt down in this ceremony, she would lose something very important.

"I...I..." Meihong said intermittently, but couldn't give an answer.

The quiet atmosphere gradually became a little more turbulent, and the girl's swaying behavior began to make people understand that this was no longer just nervous.

Fujiwara frowned slightly.Although she understands her daughter's thoughts a bit, she can't bear it anymore.The teacher who was going to knock on the door of the emperor, his Fujiwara family did not have the courage to directly refuse.Under this refusal, where is the majesty of the emperor's teacher?Where is the emperor placed?Where is the Fujiwara family located?

"Sister Hong, but thinking about what the concubine asked about yesterday?" Just before Fujiwara didn't wait for another word to remind her, a beautiful voice seemed to rang out.

Everyone looked at the voice, and an elegant and luxurious girl got up from the first place.For a time, regardless of gender, they couldn't help being immersed in the maiden's peerless temperament.

Hui Yelian moved slightly and walked in front of Meihong.

"My concubine has been waiting for your answer~ Meihong! Would you like to be my sister?"

Meihong met Kaguya's gaze.This is the third time she has heard this question, and now she suddenly understands something.

"Whoosh~ It seems that Meihong is still more willing to be my sister!" Looking at the girl who couldn't say anything to refuse, Kaguya smiled lightly, turned back to the boy in the main seat and said, "Is that okay!"

Ye Qiu met those star-like eyes, opened his mouth slightly, and finally sighed quietly.

"……what ever!"

Chapter [-] The Beginning of the Story

The apprenticeship storm came to an end, but a regular visitor was welcomed in the bamboo forest!

Although the results are not perfect, but at least finally solved the problem.Of course, this is what Ye Qiu thought.

"The only thing I can teach you is fighting and swordsmanship! Which one does Meihong want to learn first?"

In the small building in the bamboo forest, the boy sitting cross-legged asked the girl who was kneeling in front of him.

Although the apprenticeship failed, it didn't prevent him from really wanting to teach his sister something to become popular.The course of the smoke of immortality is doomed that her life will not be peaceful, so learning something in advance is naturally prepared.

"Oh~ Don't you think it's too rude to teach Meihong to fight and kill things?" Before Meihong could answer, Kaguya, who was lying in the stove more and more lazily, chatted.As he said that, he turned his eyes and said, "Meihong, let's learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting with my sister! It will be very hard for girls to dance with knives and guns!"

"What! Isn't it hard to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting? Kaguya, don't steal your thoughts, okay?"

"Hmph~ how could it be the same..."

……

Meihong looked embarrassedly at the two who were arguing for her.Gradually aware of the relationship between the two, she had to doubt the relationship between the 'father and daughter'.There is no trace of father and daughter at all.Which daughter calls her father directly 'you', does a daughter who calls herself 'concubine' even in front of her father really exist?And this father has absolutely no majesty as a father!

Meihong regained her mind and prepared to put an end to the dispute. "...I want to learn swordsmanship, please teach me swordsmanship!"

The girl will never forget that sacred sword that was condensed with golden light.If she really wanted to learn one thing, that dazzling brilliance, that holy hope full of hope, that golden sword that gave life to her mother was what she wanted to learn the most.

As if seeing through Meihong's thoughts, Ye Qiu couldn't help shaking his head and said, "If you want to learn that kind of swordsmanship, you may be disappointed. I can't teach you!"

"!" Sister Hong was taken aback.Then a disappointed look appeared on his face.

"Oh throat~ You clearly said that you taught others swordsmanship, but in the end you couldn't teach it. What you did, this master, was a failure!"

"Even if you're so sarcastic, it's useless!" Ye Qiu shook his head helplessly, holding his hands empty, a golden sword slowly formed in the air. "But it's not swordsmanship at all, how do you ask me to teach it?"
