"As long as it is related to Calabash House, we can't be too cautious. We have already suffered a lot of losses at the hands of Calabash House."

"Don't act hastily."

"For now, let's continue to send people to secretly investigate the whereabouts of Kamitachi."

"If there are any results, report to me immediately."

"Yes." Shimizu Eiichi nodded vigorously as if he wanted to tear his head off.

"What is the current situation of the anti-barbarian group?" Rakshasa asked the next question.

"Destruction is imminent." Shimizu Eiichi's answer was quite quick and simple. "Without the leadership of Kamino Tatsugoro, the remnants of the anti-barbarian group are now completely in disarray."

"Judging from the current intensity of the killings by the execution office and the Huofu Bandit Kai, the destruction of the Yi group is only a matter of time."

"It could be as fast as one month or as slow as three months. There will no longer be any anti-barbarian groups in this world."

"...What a pity." Rakshasa's right index finger tapped the window frame rhythmically again, "The anti-barbarian group was destroyed like this...I thought I could make more use of them."

"Takayuki Takayuki's son is really becoming more and more capable."

The corners of Rakshasa's mouth slowly turned up.

It outlines an arc that is difficult to predict.

"I don't know where he will be moved to after he has accomplished this great feat."

"It would be really great if he could be moved to the right to become a fire-fighting thief..."

"Haha...hahahaha..."

Rakshasa lowered his voice and let out a sinister laugh of "hahahaha".

The laughter came so suddenly.

So weird...

Bang - Rakshasa closed the window in front of him.

The sunlight leaking into the room through the window in front of Rakshasa is the only source of light in this room.

After Rakshasa closed the window, every corner of the room was suddenly enveloped in rich darkness...

…

…

Edo, somewhere——

Phew!

Hearing this sound, Aji knew that it must have been their domestic cat Doshabao who knocked over the Nioh statue placed at the entrance.

"Hey! Red bean paste buns!"

A Si rushed to the entrance in a hurry.

Sure enough - Red Bean Paste Bun, the black and white kitten they raised was lying on the fallen Nioh statue, looking at Asa with an innocent face.

"Go! Go!"

Asi waved his hand and drove away the bean paste bun that looked innocent and didn't know that he had made a mistake. Then he respectfully picked up the statue of Niou placed at the entrance to ward off evil spirits with both hands, and prepared to put it back in its original position and arrange it.

Straighten up.

But at this moment——

"Finally finished!"

Her husband Soujiro's ecstatic roar came from the back room.

Asi was so frightened by the roar that he couldn't care about anything else. He just hugged the Nioh statue and rushed to the living room in the back room.

"Sojiro! What's wrong? What's wrong?"

As soon as he arrived at the living room, Asi saw his husband standing on the desk with an excited face, arms stretched out, looking up to the sky and laughing.

"I finally finished writing my new work!"

"Soujiro, have you finished writing your new work?" Asa was surprised at first, and then he said with joy: "Congratulations! Soujiro, what is the theme of your new work? This is the first time I have read it.

It took such a long time to write continuously. The longest work I wrote before only took a little over a month."

More than two months ago, in order to help her husband relieve his mood because he was stuck in a bottleneck period and was unable to write new works, Asa took Soujiro to Asakusa to watch the swordsmanship competition held by Aizuhou.

Then, a weird scene suddenly happened.

When the first day of competition came to an end, Soujiro suddenly slapped his thigh and shouted, "Aji! I have inspiration for writing!", "Aji, let's go! Let's go home! I'm going to write something tonight

All night", and then rushed home in a hurry, not even watching the game anymore.

Since then, Soujiro has been immersed in writing all day long.

Curious about what new inspiration Soujiro had gained, Aji asked her husband more than once: "What is the theme of your new work?"

But Soujiro would always reply mysteriously, "It's a secret! I'll tell you after I finish writing it!".

Due to the poor financial situation at home, as well as the physical and psychological torture of being curious about what new work her husband had written, Asa finally waited for the day when Soujiro would finish writing his new work.

"Asi, I can write new works all thanks to you!"

Soujiro hugged Asagi and buried his handsome face in Asagi's head.

"Is there me?" Asi tilted his head in surprise.

“It was after watching Lord Aizu’s swordsmanship competition that I got new inspiration for writing!”

Soujiro was beaming with joy and dancing.

"After seeing Tachibana Aoden using his superior strength to continuously defeat powerful enemies, I suddenly thought - it would be a pity not to write Tachibana Aoden's story into a storybook!"

"Ah?" Asi's eyes and lips opened wide.

Huaben - the script for storytellers to sing.

"Asi, don't you think Ju Qingden's story is very suitable to be written into a storybook?"

"Originally, Tachibana Aoden was just an unknown member of the "Three Chapters" Tongxin in the Northern Bansho, with the nickname "Daito Noboshi"."

“After realizing the weight of my responsibilities as a ‘Three Chapters’ Tongxin, I suddenly woke up and made up my mind not to live in confusion.”

"After that, he was completely transformed and performed extraordinary feats as if he were a new person!"

"On a snowy night, the brave fighting group against the barbarians is in the lead, and the rescue team of the Tibetan Shutun is behind."

"Every battle is fought with less and more is fierce."

"Relying on one outstanding performance after another, step by step, he has transformed from the 'Daotouden' to the now famous 'Little Tengu of the North Bansho'!"

"The common people love to read stories like this."

"There is a plot of turning from weak to strong, step by step from an unknown little person to a big shot today, and there are also many scenes of fighting with swords."

"This kind of ups and downs story that the common people love to read, if it is adapted into a script, it will definitely become a hit!"

Asi blinked a few times: "So you have been adapting Ju Qingden's story into a novel for the past two months?"

"That's right! I have a hunch that this new work of mine will definitely be a hit!"

"When creating this new work, I absorbed all my experiences and lessons from previous works of the same type."

"That kind of story with a lot of fighting scenes has always been a favorite among the people in the city."

"Even if the context seems to have no logic, as long as the characters fight enough and are exciting enough, people will applaud it."

"The storybook of Ogata Issei I wrote last year didn't get a very good response because there were too few fighting scenes."

"So this time I specially wrote a lot of fighting scenes about Tachibana Aoden! Nearly two-thirds of the entire novel is about how Tachibana Aoden kills people with his sword."

"Hahaha! Aji, be happy! When my new work sells well, I will buy you a new yukata! Summer is here just now, so it's a good time to change into a new yukata!"

After saying this, Soujiro lifted his face from Asa's northern hemisphere, lifted up the petite Asa, and then just held Asa and spun him around.

"It feels pretty good to adapt Tachibana Aoden's story into a storybook..." Asashi smiled brightly, "Sojiro, you have been writing at home recently and have not heard anything going on outside the window. In order not to disturb your creation

, so I haven’t told you yet—Ju Qingden has made great achievements again recently.”

"What?" Shujiro hugged Asagi's spinning body and paused, "Has Tachibana Aoden made great achievements again?"

Asa nodded, and then he carefully informed Soujiro about the series of new achievements he had made by rescuing Sanako, fighting against more than sixty members of the anti-barbarian group, and single-handedly killing the leader of the anti-barbarian group, Kamino Tatsugoro.

After hearing this, Shujiro became even more ecstatic.

"Okay! Great!"

"The more famous Tachibana Aoden becomes, the more likely my new work will be a hit!"

Soujiro raised his head and laughed to the sky again. The huge laughter seemed to want to lift the ceiling above his head.

But at this time, Sojiro's laughter suddenly stopped.

In an emergency, he pursed his lips tightly and frowned slightly, as if he was recalling something bad.

"Soujiro, what's wrong?" Asa asked, "Why do you suddenly have such a solemn expression?"
