The Sword Deity in Tokyo

Chapter 149: Is This What A Human Would Say?

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

After the first game ended, Kimura Kazuki exited from District A of the competition venue.

He knew that it would be time for a lunch break after the first round. As the next round would only start at 1pm, he immediately went to District B to watch Harunaka’s match.

The reason he joined the Jade Dragon Flag Competition was to let Harunaka lead Sakura Kyu High School to win the competition, so he should not put the cart before the horse. Although he knew he would not be able to change anything, he still felt more at ease just by watching the competition.

However, the thing that made him suspicious was that Furuhashi Sakurakyu did not come to watch her own daughter’s competition. Instead, she hid in the Sun and Moon Sword to sleep, which puzzled Kimura very much.

Naturally, he did not know that Furuhashi Sakurakyu now felt pressed for time. To make her daughter pick up the motivation to learn, she recently slept during the day while appearing in her daughter’s dreams at night. Moreover, she knew that if Harunaka really won the Jade Dragon Flag Competition, Harunaka would become famous in the Kendo circle. Then, Furuhashi Sakurakyu would be able to ascend to heaven.

The qualifiers in Tokyo was only held for seven days. After completing the seven-day qualifiers and having a three-day break, the qualifying teams would then join the Jade Dragon Flag Competition. The Jade Dragon Flag Competition would also go on for another seven days. In other words, the entire competition would last about 20 days.

While appearing in her daughter’s dreams, Furuhashi Sakurakyu also spent half a day observing her. She discovered that Harunaka’s feelings for someone were blossoming. However, she had hidden them in her heart and could not make up her mind. It appeared that Hanuraka was still shilly-shallying about her feelings.

Harunaka knew well that it was merely all in her dreams. Although she dreamt of her senior every day, she dared not face him. As the Jade Dragon Flag Competition was beginning, all her attention was on the competition. She simply had no thoughts for dating.

This made Furuhashi Sakurakyu feel very helpless...

When she appeared in the dreams, it was not an act of hypnosis. She could merely provide guidance for her daughter. Harunaka was only sixteen years old, which was an age during her adolescence. It was an age when she would overthink everything and dwell on an issue for a very long time... Regarding the home tutoring as well, she did not want to study, she wanted to help Kimura-senpai. Thus, that made her very miserable and Kimura Kazuki very unhappy while tutoring her. Added with the reality of things, she ultimately dared not face her heart’s desire. After all, it was easy for a person to like someone, but falling in love would be very difficult.

Furuhashi Sakurakyu had initially intended to appear in her other daughter’s dreams after she was done with Harunaka’s matter. However, solving Harunaka’s problems was already extremely exhausting. It seemed to be really beyond her capability.

“Kazuki!” While Kimura Kazuki was hurrying to District B, Chiba Shiori called him from behind.

Lately, Kimura Kazuki had to perform the “Vision Spell” for Chiba Shiori every three days. They had grown closer, as reflected in the intimate name she used when calling him.

For Kimura Kazuki, he had three real friends before this. They were Eguchi Keisuke, who was the Deputy Head of Department of the Sword Believers’ Club, Chiba Shiori, and lastly, Nakagawa Aokiji. As the latter two had saved his life, he considered them as his friends.

The Furuhashi sisters were added to the list as they ate at the same table together every day. It would be quite difficult not to be acquainted with each other after that.

“Why are you here?” When Kimura Kazuki finished his sentence, he knew he had asked a stupid question.

“Akihide High School is also participating in the Jade Dragon Flag Competition, District A. However, Sakura Kyu High School is also in District A. It seems we won’t be able to advance to the next round.” However, Chiba Shiori did not feel disappointed. Akihide High School’s Kendo Association was not strong, merely reaching the district qualifiers every year. As there was no hope for winning, there would be no room for disappointment.

Tamago, who was next to her, curiously observed Kimura Kazuki. She had presumed that Chiba Shiori came to cheer for her school. Apparently, it was not so. It seemed that both of them were very close as they called each other’s names very intimately.

As the three of them headed toward District B, Chiba Shiori introduced Kimura Kazuki to Tamago, and they became acquainted with one another.

In no time at all, Kimura Kazuki arrived at District B. District B was the venue for the Women’s Team’s matches, but there were more male spectators than women in the audience. The trio found a place to sit down, but soon attracted the attention of another group. They were Natsui, Akino, and Fuyuno, who were there to cheer for their sister.

“Hey... Isn’t that Senpai? Why is he here too?” Natsui looked surprised as she did not know that Kimura Kazuki had joined the Kendo Association. Harunaka had not told them about this.

They thought that Senpai was a member of the Sword Believers’ Club, and it would be unlikely for him to join the Kendo Association. Although his skills in Kendo were excellent, it did not seem that Senior appeared to be interested in the Kendo competition. Otherwise, he would not be the Head of Department of the Sword Believers’ Club but the Head of Department of the Kendo Association instead.

Unexpectedly, he was in the audience.

Is he here to cheer for Harunaka?

Are both of them this close already?

Natsui was green with envy. However, she did not know whether she was jealous of Senpai or Harunaka.

“Should we go over there?” Fuyuno asked as she glanced at Akino, who was playing mobile games. When she saw the two girls sitting next to Senpai, she wondered who Miss Gentera was.

“Let’s go!”

Natsui and Fuyuno dragged the confused Akino and walked over to Kimura Kazuki.

“Senpai!”

When he saw that it was Natsui and the other two, Kimura Kazuki smiled and said, “Have a seat.” Although he knew that the three of them were at the venue, he did not see them because they were sitting in a corner.

When the three of them moved, it attracted the attention of the boys around them.

After all, they were a set of triplets. Besides, they were so beautiful, it would be difficult for people not to notice them. The beautiful triplets ran over to sit beside Kimura Kazuki, who was already seated next to two equally mesmerizing ladies, especially Chiba Shiori. When the boys saw this, their expressions soured as they were eaten up by jealousy.

However, Kimura Kazuki remained unbothered, and his expression was unchanged. Since he had no impure thoughts, it was natural that he would not let his imagination run wild. He would not be fidgety even if he was surrounded by a group of girls. In his eyes, Shiori and the triplets were all humans who simply happened to be girls.

Since Harunaka’s competition had not begun, Kimura Kazuki introduced both sides to each other.

Akino and Fuyuno were very surprised when they realized that Chiba Shiori was Miss Gentera.

Akino was exceptionally astonished... She inquired, “You are Tentacle Monster Gentera? The speed in which you update ‘Loading File of Tokyo’ is unbelievably fast. How do you manage to write 10,000 words a day?”

The development of Japan’s light novel websites had not been long. Most of the writers who published light novels online would update one chapter every two or three days, which was already considered fast. Some would even update one chapter per week. This was actually the average number of updates as per industry standards. Everyone was very taken aback by ‘Loading File Of Tokyo’ that was published in ‘Let’s Be A Light Novelist.’

Many light novelists who published novels online were fuming with rage. Initially, they were doing fine updating one chapter per week. However, there were a lot of comments recently asking them to see the updating rate of “Loading File Of Tokyo”. They were all dumbfounded upon discovering it.

Updating 10,000 words a day, this is a work of a beast, right?

They suspected that the writer had prepared the manuscript beforehand. The readers did not care about this, and they only knew that Miss Gentera produced 10,000 words a day. Can all of you scum do it?

Previously, there was no one else to compare with. However, now they know that writers were able to become a ruthless coding machine.

Chiba Shiori modestly replied, “My thinking is just sharper. Furthermore, the topic was what I’m good at, so I can write 10,000 words in three hours every night.”

Is this what a human would say?
