Arifureta Chapter 346Arifureta After IIIShizuku’s Wish

Around noon of a holiday

A pair of man and woman who seemed to have finished their lunch went out from a restaurant

「The name of the restaurant is like that, but the taste is nor huh……」

The one as irl with black hair tied into ponytail and dignified look――Yaegashi Shizuku Beside her was Nagunboard

Also, ahead of Hajinboard that decorated the above of the entrance The name of the restaurant was carved there

It said “RestaurantWe Have Everything”

Actually, the current owner of western restaurant Wisteria, the backbone of Sonobe family――Sonobe Hiroshi apparently trained in this restaurant when he was young The two of them came here out of curiosity

Just as the na The oas like the master of that bar that catered to certain bunch of public prosecutors, he would say 「We have it」 no matter what anyone ordered and served it

By the way, Hajiiving a try saying 「Grandma’s meat and potato stew」 because he wanted to make the restaurant owner said 「We don’t have it」 but……

In the end, Haji 「I, impossible!? This taste is certainly!」 with his eyes opened wide It could be easily guessed from that attitude of Hajime It made Hajime became really curious just who in the world thethat aside, if asked why Hajiether just the two of the place now There is still time until the scheduled time but, this is our first tih you said that, it’s only taking photo right?」

Taking photo

Yes, that was the reason why the two of theoing to work as azine

It seemed the photo was for a pair of man and woman, and Hajime was chosen as Shizuku’s partner……or rather, for Shizuku asn’t a prothat she firmly refused to do Rather it was the client who requested her to make an offer to Hajime instead, because her sether with hi nervous I want to go there quickly and prepare my heart」

「Well, if that’s what Shizuku want to do then it’s fine」

Haji particularly nervous Shizuku wanted hi what happened several days ago

「You there-! What’re you doing getting exhausted like that! The eneet killed!?」

Inside the dojo of Yaegashi-style, a scolding thundered loudly The voice’s oas Yaegashi-style’s instructor――Yaegashi Shuuzou

Just now Shuuzou raised a violent voice 「ZEAAH」 while throwing a sickle and chain to one of the disciple as on his knee

「――Tsu, ize, sensei!」

That disciple barely ju shuriken to Shuuzou in a counterattack At the sa he used his wooden sword that had steel core inside to block the vertical slash thatwith the intent to absolutely killopponent

The disciple nu to the disciple number 1

「Die here! Ya a front kick Unnoticed there was a sers As expected it completely looked like murder attempt

「You’re the one that’ll die-, Chief Tsuchi-!!」

Disciple nuauntlet He used the i sound Then he thrust toward the crotch of disciple number 2 It seemed he planned to kill his opponent’s life ashis son’s life with high speed back step

「……Fuh, you aren’t half bad anymore, Yamasaki-kun!」

「Haah, haah, thank you very ot h you’re already past fifty, are you a ashi at least should be able to do fulleven when your work is behind the desk!」

「Kuh The path to beco-」

The disciple nu such conversation were actually a young detective and the police chief of the police station that had jurisdiction over this city The tho belonged under the organization that cracked down on crime yelled 「Die!」 to each other but……

Unfortunately, there was no one in that dojo ould ashi dojo――it consisted of the front kendo dojo and the dojo to learn the Yaegashi-style sword technique The dojo for sword technique was also giving anizations like the police or security firm and the like It was quite famous in the industry

There weren’t ashi-style, but once soashi-style, deathly training would become like their daily routine irrelevant of their occupation

And so, even if the chief of police station was trying to kill a young detective, or the opposite where the young detective was trying to kill the chief of his office, it wasn’t strange at all!

「You cannot call this anything else but athe police duo as laughing 「Hahahahah」 wit each other

The one who stood dignifiedly with her hand on her waist and her ponytail swaying was,

「Oh, Shizuku-chan」

「Many thanks for the service, Ojouyoung miss」

「Please don’t call it service」

The “idol of the heart” for the young disciples, and “everyone’s beloved daughter” for the elderly disciples――it was no ne other than Yaegashi Shizuku-ojousama

「Haa I think there is no bloodthirstiness like this in the past though……」

「That’s because we didn’t teach you the reverse side of Yaegashi-stye」

Even though she was only giving instruction as assistant instructor, they talked to her in a way like she was so weary Her grandfather Shuuzou said that to Shizuku while approaching her He also gave the command 「Rest!」 loudly at the same time (TN: Don’t knohat is the reference for this)

The disciples sat down on the spot and started taking rest inShuuzou

「Reverse side……you ashi fanize the “ninja” matter for some reason For Shizuku, no roup” but……according to Shuuzou, it seemed that to the end it was “only acrobatic that accompanied the sword technique, and they only did a bit of handyrandpa At the places that you brought me to before this, there were a lot of people there with terribly fah」

「I told you that it was only a gathering of sword technique dojo association Their family name also isn’t unusual nah」

「That was because the place of the gathering was deep in the mountain The choice of black is inevitable because the stain on the clothes won’t stand out with that」

「…………Midway it becah!」

「Houses that inherited ancient athered in one place like that It’s only natural that they wanted to pit their skill against each other right?」

「Lies! Those people said it clearly! Don’t think that Yaegashi will be able to stay as the leader of the shinobi clan forever, they said!」

「……They have nice sense of huh!? They said 『Yaegashi’s princess! Prepare yourself!』, their killing intent was really fierce though! If that was humor, then the crimes in society can all be considered as humor you know!?」

「……Fuht!?’, Shizuku-ojousama threw out all the inside of her heart that had been distressed since the incident from where she was taken deep into a mountain the other day

Shuuzou put his hand on his chin andface, then……

「Those people with intense killing intent, in the end, they were taken care of by you alone though……」

「Wha, what? I didn’t kill theiti The opposite, everyone was ie to welcome you as bride into their family no matter what, or for their son to beco here……」

「Perhaps I should cut theht」

‘Wait, that’s not it!’ Shizuku noticed that the topic allared fiercely at Shuuzou-ojiichan

The disciples of the dojo were pretending to recover withtheir eyes and observed the way the talk was going Shuuzou let out a deep sigh

‘So you finally give up’, Shizuku thought and sharpened her ear to listen to the truth of her fae Stop running fro for war aren’t you?」

When she thrust her hand in a ‘co the dojo’s wall The young detective Yaot bloay by the iashi-style were treated like faot told of Shizuku’s fantastic circu, they weren’t shocked because their perception had been chopped off froashi comrades rather than police rule so there wasn’t any proble of the day where they would deal the death penalty to Hajime who stole away their beloved “Ojou” and trained theranddaughter finally began――

「Oi, Shizuku Why are you in a daze? Do you feel like crashing on a power pole?」

「Hah!?」

Her ar embraced by Hajime, with that she returned to her senses ‘What she wanted to recall wasn’t that!’ she thought and shook her head……「Kyah」 she raised her voice

There was a power pole right beside her If her arm wasn’t pulled by Hajime she would be in a crash course with it

「So, sorry When I tried to recall the ti intent toward the absurd daily life with the disciples or to Ojii-chan instead」

「Yaegashi faet attacked by everyone of Yaegashi house as though it was an act that was as natural as breathing Haji that

People like police officer in active duty, or lawyer, or SDF officer, even though they were people whose occupation was to protect, they would say 「Nagumo Hajime! Death penalty!」 or the like and attacked to kill He believed that lot ought to change their occupation

Or rather, Haji with the work of you guys!?’

Cough He cleared his throat once While heading toward the photo shot venue, Hajie the atht, the request this tiht When I was about to duel Ojii-chan, Kouki’s mother――Miya-san came to deliver refreshawa Miya――the e as editor for a faazine Kouki’s awa entered Yaegashi-style that is a ninja group like that behind the scene So his mother is the one behind it huh」

「Ah, now that you ht, before auntie Miya was a disciple of Yaegashi-style」

Hajiht, when he intruded into Yaegashi house, Miya wasn’t a his attackers She was someone orked seriously Unlike a certain police chief and young detective somewhere

Shizuku continued the story with a wry sh I said that, auntie Miya was a disciple only when she was at high school I’ve never seen auntie training in our hoashi-style is a ninja group right? What kind of person Aawa’s mother is?」

「Errr, anyway, auntie isn’t a ninja」

According to Shizuku, it seeashi-style First was the front Yaegashi-style It was this side that ell-known in the business for giving martial instruction to police, security con country

And then, the other one was the reverse side of Yaegashi-style According to Shuuzou, it was this side that made use of the acrobatics to do a bit of handy the disciples working as “handyement

Fundamentally the people of the front side didn’t know the specific detail of the reverse side The exception was disciple like a certain police chief, soh position at the surface, or disciple as “handy in within the society, people like them also knew about the reverse side Rather they would make use of their position to cooperate with the behind the scene work……

In any case, even though they were disciple of Yaegashi-style, Shizuku and Kouki and of course Miya were disciple of the surface side

「It seems that in the past auntie Miya was considerably wild but……how should I say it, the bloodline of Anet nature fro Because of that, it seeerous incident while she andering all over Japan

「So that guy Aawa took after hisanother world Not just being a trouble net Far fro his parent’s nature, he even properly developed it into a version up

「And, she was already a disciple at that time Auntie Miya and my mother as also her friend asked for help from Ojii-chan It seems that was the start」

So to speak, Miya as a child that was unable to trust adult got saved by her Kirino’s friendship and Shuuzou’s ashi-style

「Although, that person, she was plainly strong…… In the end rather than sword, she is better at using ashi-style I once saw it……she was able to equally fight so awa fae back, it feels like an absurd fact will co she roanet for trouble, and when she went back, she was saying 「Sensei! We arethe neck of her husband Before anyone noticed she found a job and displayed her charisashi-style was also because she orried of such inherent nature of Aawa family and Kouki’s own “infatuation to justice” As expected, if Miya as free and uncontrolled and lived while practicing ‘I’onna dyed by the color of others noher head over and over, even Shuuzou wouldn’t be able to refuse her

「Wait, the talk got off course About that auntie Miya you see, she asked me a request One of the ot sick and hospitalized, so she asked me whether I can be a substitute for her」

「Why Shizuku?」

「It happened right yesterday, so surely it’s because there’s no tie of ot sick」

When Shizuku said that, her cheeks reddened slightly and she averted her gaze

She was feeling e job itself, but because of the detail of the photo shot

「That’s……sorry, to suddenly ask you to do this」

Shizuku fidgeted while saying that with a s to ht? I want to see it no matter what so there’s no problem And more i if other lad you asked me」

「……Yes」

Yes, the photo shot this time had such theme Shizuku too at first absolutely didn’t want to do soled close to other h it was a request from Miya But there Miya too see Shizuku that it would be okay to do it with Hajime, rather, they should be able to take the photo Shizuku’s bashful smile like that! So please ask him to come by all means! Miya asked

With that, Shizuku as a raph of her in wedding dress and Hajime taken……’I, I should accept it I think! I think!’ she spoke in roundabout way like her best friend in the end while accepting the request

「But, I’ bad for Yue and others」

「You’ll have dinner at hly questioned there」

「Haji you saying ‘ether Shizuku was pondering that perhaps she should buy so and pleasantly sent her out with Haji that, the venue ca that was used not only for wedding ceremony, but also for various events There was also a church inside

Its corridor of thick stone pillars was beautiful, the appearance of the building’s entrance was like an art museum They advanced toward it

Hajietting nervous……

He suddenly stopped walking They were in the middle of the stair in front of the entrance The place where line of pillars was lining up at both sides

「What’s wrong Haji face to him, but she immediately noticed the cause Her face now looked like she had a really painful headache Hajiht away」

It was like a scene in movie That scene where the main character said 「How about you come out already」, and then the ene 「I’m amazed you noticed」 with a suspicious smile
