Whether it is thousands of years ago or now, humans and monsters always seem to be unable to coexist peacefully. In fact, it is a bit funny to say that the two parties live in harmony, right?

Obviously, monsters are generally stronger than humans in terms of strength, experience, or lifespan, but when getting along, it is often the monsters who suffer the most.

Tao walked slowly, looking a little confused, her eyes fell on the boy who was walking not far ahead and the chubby cat following him with short legs.

It was already evening, and the setting sun slanted to the west elongated their shadows, and the shadows of the two guys with such a huge difference in height could overlap together.

It's very strange, as a human being, he wants to protect youkai wholeheartedly, but as a big youkai, he is willing to protect humans.

After a few short decades, what kind of mood will the lonely monster feel?

So...you can't get married...

"Hey, brat!"

Madara turned her head and narrowed her eyes, "Why are you staring at me?"

"Who wants to see your stinky cat!"

Tao stuck out her tongue at it.

"Hmph~" Madara raised his head and snorted coldly, "Natsume, let's hurry up, Nanatsujiya is going to close!"

As it spoke, it ran two steps with its short legs, and then its chubby body was hugged by the young human's hand.

"It's okay, teacher," Natsume held it up in front of him, and smiled, "It's okay if you don't close the door so early. Your injury is just right, so don't run away."

The fat cat twisted twice and waved its paw, "You don't need to worry about that kind of small injury at all~ It's just you who like to make a fuss over a molehill!"

"Okay, okay, I promised to buy buns for you, so don't worry." Natsume coaxed in a good-tempered manner.

Tao looked at the enjoyment humming on the face of the cat being stroked in the boy's arms, and curled her lips in disgust.

That guy, the dignity of being a big monster!

"Peach too, do you still want to eat bean paste buns this time?" Natsume turned her head and asked.

Tao immediately stretched out her hand, "Three!"

……

When they returned to Honmaru after eating and drinking, the little guys who had been sent on an expedition had already returned. As soon as they saw her, they ran up to complain about something like "What is it, my lord went out while I was away!" "Did you come back?" Seeing that the owner is not happy!" and boasting "We brought back a lot of things~" voice.

"Okay, okay, you guys are amazing~" Tao waved her hand in a rather perfunctory manner, and as expected, it caused another round of coquettish complaints from the daggers.

She covered her ears helplessly, and sat on the swing surrounded by small knives with a depressed face, and she could still see Yiqi with a gentle smile on her face out of the corner of her eye.

She glared at him, her eyes full of urgings to "take these little guys away quickly".

Yiqi Yizhen couldn't help but tilted his head and let out a chuckle, then he held back his laughter and walked forward to appease the noisy brothers one by one.

"Okay, let's go back to the room and change clothes before going out to play in the main hall." He gently patted Akita's head, nodded to Tao, and then gently pushed his brothers towards the main house.

"Ah, really, it's so noisy..." Tao complained in a low voice.

Then she found that one of the knives who had been taken away by the elder brother of the Awataguchi family ran back again.

She gave a soft "Huh?", and looked at the blushing little boy in front of her strangely, "What's wrong?"

"That, that... Your lord... I, I..." The little boy with soft off-white short hair grabbed the hem of his clothes, hesitantly, he seemed very unconfident, but he wanted to tell her something. His cheeks blushed, and he bit his lip in a rather embarrassed look.

"What's the matter?" Peach asked suspiciously.

"I, I saw it again this time..." Wu Hutui raised his head, his honey-colored eyes were shy and timid.

"what did you see?"

"I saw, saw... my lord..." Wuhu Tui lowered his voice again, looking a little frustrated, "But, my lord didn't go there, did I, did I make a mistake again?"

Tao was stunned for a moment, then slightly narrowed the corners of those water-red eyes, "Yes, you also said you saw me before."

"..." Wu Hu lowered his head and nodded silently.

"Are you sure it's me you saw?" Tao thought for a while, then asked, "Isn't it someone who looks alike?"

The little boy's expression was still a little hesitant, but he nodded seriously after he struggled, "I, I think it's my lord...because I'm familiar with it, my lord's spiritual power and fragrance."

"That's it..." Tao sighed thoughtfully, then jumped off the swing, "By the way, where did you go on this expedition?"

Wu Hutui blinked his eyes in a daze, "Edo."

Edo?

Tao raised her eyebrows subconsciously, as if the monster general had said that they were going to Edo soon?

……

The girl who rarely dined with everyone sat at the table, her short eyebrows were tangled together, and her whole face seemed to be wrinkled. She stared at the plate of radishes in front of her, and stretched out her hand without hesitation. Push the plate away from you.

But after a while, the little plate was pushed back in front of her.

The girl who was holding the fried shrimp raised her head, her water red eyes stared at the young man sitting opposite her, her questioning and accusation were beyond words.

Candlestick Qie Guangzhong, who was so watched, clenched his fist and coughed, then turned his eyes away.

After eating the fried shrimp, Tao flattened his mouth, looked left and right, and then quickly changed the position of his own plate with the empty one on the left.

The young man who was quietly hiding under the white cloth and pulling the rice paused.

The emerald green eyes silently looked at the plate of radishes that hadn't been touched at all, and then slowly turned their heads away.

The girl was drinking the miso soup with relish, with a contented expression, she was obviously very satisfied with the taste of the miso soup, and her brows and eyes were full of happiness.

Looking back again, he silently stared at the plate of radishes, with struggle and hesitation flashing across his face.

California Qingguang, who had been staring at this side, finally couldn't stand it any longer. He put down his bowl and chopsticks, and twitched the corner of his mouth, "This is impossible!"

The girl raised her head and looked over with a half-grievance and half-depressed look, rice grains were still on the corners of her lips, she looked ignorant and ignorant of worldly affairs.

"..." Seen by those innocent eyes, California Qingguang's expression also froze.

Candlestick Qie Guangzhong covered his face, "Master, picky eaters are not allowed."

Tao puffed up her cheeks, confidently said, "I don't like carrots!"

"Even if you don't like it..." Before Candlestick could finish speaking, he saw the girl twist her head like a child in a tantrum, wrapping her arms around her arms, "I won't eat!"

I couldn't laugh or cry at once and didn't know how to persuade him, so I had to look for help to the head of the Awataguchi family who seemed to have a natural talent for taking care of children.

In the first phase, Yizhen showed a wry smile, he looked down at Akita Kazuran who was biting his chopsticks beside him in doubt, and then looked at Yakenhe who was eating quietly and quietly, and seemed to be very interested in what happened there while watching Catfish tail with gusto drinking soup.

"Mr. Candlestick Che's food is delicious," he said after a while, "Didn't the main hall always like to eat the food made by Mr. Candlestick Che?"

Tao turned her head away from the original one, looked at Yiqi Yizheng, then looked at Candlestick Cut, and then pursed her lips, "But I don't like carrots."

The young man with short water-colored hair glanced at the plate of untouched cold dishes and said with a smile, "Then, have you tried it in the main hall?"

Tao was stunned for a moment, then looked away with a guilty conscience.

"It's too unconvincing to say disgusting words without even tasting it," Yamato Moran Ding shook his head, picked up a piece of cold radish with chopsticks, shook it, and then put it in his mouth, smiling sincerely, "It's delicious yo~"

"My lord, my lord, it's really delicious..." Wu Hutui, who was holding his job bowl, also expressed his opinion in a low voice, looking at the girl seriously with honey-colored eyes.

"Mr. Candlestick Che prepares food for everyone every day. It is very hard." Yiqi Yizheng's voice was still gentle and friendly, but his expression was very serious. He looked at the girl whose expression was a little shaken, and continued, "Still Please don't disappoint the Lord's will."

"No, first-stage palace, please don't say that," Candlestick cut suddenly shook his head, and laughed very leniently, "If my lord doesn't like it, it must be because I haven't done well enough. My lord, don't force yourself."

Tao tugged at her sleeves, looked at Candlestick Kiri with some awkwardness, then bit her lip and looked hesitantly at the plate of radishes that she had pushed to the side of Yamabagiri.

"Princess, it's really delicious~"

Little Tengu Imaken approached with a smile, reached out and picked up Momo's chopsticks and picked up a piece of radish, "Come on, I'll feed you~"

Tao frowned, looking at the thinly sliced ​​radish next to her mouth with some distaste, Candlestick cut her nervous and solemn eyes from the corner of her eye, she struggled for a while, then closed her eyes, and let go He opened his mouth and bit the radish, chewed it quickly and swallowed it.

"My lord, how does it taste?" Jin Jian asked expectantly, blinking his translucent red eyes.

Tao's brows were still tangled together, but slowly loosened again. She opened her eyes, as if water mist covered those water-red eyes, and her voice was a bit dazed, " ...it seems...okay?"

Hearing this, the smile on the candlestick cut Guangzhong's face was like the snow that gradually melted under the warm spring sun, spreading to his only exposed eye, and the corner of his lips curled up.

"Let me just say, it's delicious~" Yamato Morita shook his head and said, his furry ponytail flicked.

"Hey, is Honmaru's daily life like this?" The newly joined Lion King seemed a little surprised, then he stood up energetically and clenched his fists, "Yo, I'm very good at taking care of people~ In the future Leave it to me to coax the lord to eat!"

"..."

Tao's face flushed red all of a sudden, amidst the snickering, she raised her sleeves angrily and covered the petals and caterpillars on the face of the bewildered Lion King.

"Who wants you to coax me!"

……

A new round of government orders came down again, this time the destination was Mount Hiei in 1571 in the Western calendar.

Tao is not interested in this kind of history and doesn't understand it at all, but she grabbed the best-talking issue and asked about Mount Hiei, only to realize that this is another history related to the man named Oda Nobunaga.

Why is this guy still...

Peach bit her finger depressedly.

Said to be the former owner of Yaoken and Candlestick Cut...

But she doesn't care about things like the former owner, they are all her knives now.

Although Tao complained in her heart, she still sent off the team peacefully, but Yao Yan in the team seemed as calm as usual, without any mood swings at all.

That's right, he can calmly watch Oda Nobunaga commit suicide and burn himself——

Yaken Toshiro is said to be a very sharp sword of loyalty that will never hurt its master.

Will he be sad?

Even though he awkwardly ordered Yamabagiri, the captain, to come back immediately if anyone was injured by the sword, Momo was still a little worried.Those guys have been super active recently, just like this time, everyone is desperately fighting for the team spots.

The list of players was decided by Candlestick Cut and Yiqi Yizheng after consulting with Tao for instructions.

This time the team is led by Yamabuchi Kirihiro, joined by Yamato Mamoruan, Lion King and Ranto Shiro who need to grow up, and also assisted by Yaken Toshiro and Numeo Toshiro who are relatively high-level. Opportunities allow them to get exercise.

...No matter what, I'm working hard to become stronger

Well, she also—

After making a decision in her heart, she turned around and looked at Candlestick Che standing behind her.

"I'm going to go to the place where you went on an expedition before."

Candlestick Kiri Mitsutada was stunned for a moment, but didn't ask any more questions, just nodded and said in a deep thought, "... Edo... so who is the lord going to accompany?"

Tao thought for a while, and looked at the swords who stayed behind in Honmaru.

There are a total of fourteen swordsmen in Honmaru. They are divided into two teams, one for an expedition and the other for battle. Only two more can go out with her. After thinking for a while, Tao pointed out, "It's just you two~"

"Huh?" The little boy, who was still awake, was stunned for a while while rubbing his eyes while holding the little tiger in one hand. The unexpected instructions made his sleepy expression suddenly sober, and he opened his eyes wide. Fog's eyes, and then hurriedly stood up, "Yes, yes!"

But the other boy who was named by Tao was completely different from Wu Hutui's swaying appearance. His brows and eyes were raised, and the corners of his lips were raised, showing a vigorous smile, "If you want to help, just leave it to me~"

The author has something to say: finally, finally finished!Tired.jpg

Guess where they went and who they met?

Then there will be two new swords to start with, both of which are swords~
