Chapter 136: Meet with Mizuki Amemiya

Translated by AmaLynne

On the same day that Liese sent a letter to the Sword Saint Amemiya Kurando, she received a reply stating that she was free to come at any time, so the next day, the three of them immediately visited the Amemiya-style swordsmanship dojo together.

The horse-drawn carriage took them dozen minutes to get there.

Sam and his friends found themselves in front of a mansion on a large plot of land on the outskirts of the royal capital.

「It’s been a long time, Lise.」

As soon as they arrived, the gate opened and a girl appeared.

She was a beautiful girl in her mid-teens, wearing navy blue hakama and braided boots, with her long black hair in a braid.

Her Japanese-inspired appearance made Sam feel nostalgic.

Lise’s face, which was familiar to the girl, turned into a smile and she ran out.

「Mizuki-sama! It’s been a while!」

Lise takes the hand of the girl who greets her.

The girl also looked happy and held Lise’s hand.

Both of them even had tears in their eyes, so they must have been very close to each other.

「Un. We’ve been exchanging letters, but it’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other. How have you been?」

「Yes, I’ve been well. I’m glad to see that you haven’t changed at all, Mizuki-sama.」

「What’s wrong, Lise? You are acting like a stranger, we are friends, aren’t we?」

Mizuki says in a slightly disgruntled voice to Liese, who speaks politely.

Apparently, they used to be friends who could talk frankly.

「Yes. I understand, Mizuki. It’s been a long time. You’ve grown taller.」

「I’m in the growth phase, you know. I’m glad to see that Lise is so much happier than when I last saw her.」

「Yes, I’m very happy now. Let me introduce you. This is Sam, my fiancée. The other one is Hanae. She’s a friend.」

「I’m sorry I’m late. My name is Mizuki Amemiya. I’m a teacher at the Amemiya-style Kenjutsu Dojo. Nice to meet you.」

「My name is Samuel Scheidt. Pleased to meet you.」

「Murasaki Hanae.」

Sam and Hanae greeted Mizuki, who introduced herself with a friendly face.

Mizuki is a petite girl with a calm demeanor and each movement seemed refined.

(This girl is strong.)

Even without fighting, Sam could tell that Mizuki was a reasonably strong person.

The same seemed to be true for Hanae, whose lips were lifted in an expressionless smile.

「――She is strong.」

「She is.」

「She has magic power, but her movements are those of a strong person. I want to fight.」

「No, you can’t. We’re not here to break the dojo, so please be quiet.」

「Too bad.」

Sam laughed at Hanae, who was shrugging her shoulders like a puppy that has been left in the litter.

It seems that when she sees a strong person, she wants to fight with him or her, no matter who he or she is.

「They seem like interesting people. And I’m surprised that Samuel Scheidt, who’s the talk of the town right now, is engaged to Lise.」

「Am I the talk of the town?」

「That’s right. He killed Albert Frege in a blink of an eye and fought a dragon. He’s a very powerful man, especially among women who want to marry him.」

「……Please don’t make fun of me too much.」

「It’s true. Yes, but when I see you in person like this, I can understand how much you dislike being strong. Would you like to join?」

「I’m sorry, but I don’t have any talent with a sword.」

Not expecting to be solicited, Sam declines with a troubled look on his face.

「That’s too bad. You’re welcome to join us whenever you feel like it. Oops, you came to see my father today, not me. I’ll get in trouble if I let our guests stay outside the mansion too long. Well, then, come here.」

「…Hey, Mizuki.」

「What is it?」

Lise hesitantly approached Mizuki, who was about to lead her inside the mansion.

「I know this is hard to hear, but…」

「Don’t worry, the guy’s gone.」

「Oh, well. I’m glad to hear that.」

By「that man」, she meant Lise’s ex-husband.

Lise looked relieved, but Mizuki’s smile faded and turned to a look of displeasure.

「Did you hear? That man was married to a new woman, but they got divorced because they couldn’t have children.」

「……Hasn’t changed, has it?」

「He and his mother were both screaming that it was the other woman’s fault that they couldn’t have children, so the woman had a mental breakdown and is now recuperating at home.」

「You know a lot.」

「…Because I’m the one being wooed right now.」

「――-No!」

Lise’s voice was hoarse with surprise, and Mizuki shrugged her shoulders.

Sam, who was listening to the conversation between the two, was stunned, not knowing whether to be disgusted or angry.

(How unprincipled can you be to abandon Lise-sama, marry another woman, then abandon her too, and now woo Mizuki-sama…?)

As a fellow man, he despises him.

Even if we put aside the fact that he divorced her for a while, Sam doesn’t understand the mental structure that allows him to woo Mizuki, even if she is Lise’s friend, after that.

「How could that be?」

「Because, abominably, that man is a candidate for my father’s successor. He probably thinks that if he marries me, he will surely become the next Sword Saint.」

「In the first place, he is not that good!」

「I know it’s hard for me to say this, but none of the candidates are as good as me. I don’t even understand why that man is a candidate.」

「Why, Sword Saint-sama?」

「Well, I don’t know what my father thinks.」

「……」

Lise seemed unable to find words to say to Mizuki, who looked somewhat lonely.

Perhaps noticing her friend’s gaze, Mizuki smiled and opened her mouth to reassure her.

「Oh, don’t get me wrong. It’s not that the parent-child relationship has deteriorated. In fact, we get along very well. That’s why I’m wondering why he hasn’t made me his successor.」

Sam, who was listening to the conversation, also wondered why Mizuki was not chosen as the successor if he had no problems with his abilities and the parent-child relationship was good.

Hanae also seemed to be the same and tilted her head.

「Oops, I’ve said unnecessary things. I’m sorry. My father is waiting for me. Let’s go inside.」

With that, the three of them turned their backs and followed Mizuki into the mansion.

As soon as they stepped into the mansion, Mizuki called out to Sam as if she had just remembered.

「I heard that Samuel has been moving from place to place on the continent. Perhaps you have been to the Land of the Rising Sun?」

「Yes, I have. I stayed there for about two months.」

「I envy you. I would like to visit there once because it is my father’s homeland, but that country is closed. If you want, you can tell me about it sometime.」

「I’d love to.」

「That’ s a promise. My father is in the dojo. This way.」

Mizuki led Sam and his family through the mansion to the dojo.
