Gyu: -Are you serious? - excited.
Juji: -... – half afraid.
Haru: -A tournament? – reading what is on paper.
Emma: -What is a Dokkōdō Kendo? – finding that term strange.
Kakui: -I don't know what it is, but I already liked it. - smiling.
Ohmoi: -I'm very surprised that they don't know about the 21 precepts of Dokkōdō Kendo. – intrigued by what they said.
Marin: -kendo in the real world is way below what I thought, that's a problem.
Haru: -Why is it a problem? – looking at Marin.
Juji: -The Dokkōdō Kendo are advanced techniques of Hokkoshin, a kind of special Hokkoshin that anyone with minimal control of Hokkoshin can use, was created a long time ago by a great craftsman with a week to go before his death, Musashi Myamoto who passed it all to his disciple Terao, who in turn created the laws that artisans follow to the letter in their creations. – talking towards Haru.
Gyu: -in other words this is it! – raising his hands. -The expressionless white tiger in its den!
When saying such words in Gyu's hands a high concentration of Hokkoshin is accumulated becoming something visible, usually you cannot see Hokkoshin energy in its natural state, but Dokkōdō Kendo are manifestations of Hokkoshin in its purest state and this combined with the techniques created by Musashi become weapons.
Haru: -That's... what that woman wore that night. "Remember what she saw the night the ogre calamity appeared in the real world.
Gyu: -that's the prison technique, Dokkōdō Kendo #12. – with a blue colored chain in his hands. -it blocks the flow of Hokkoshin on whoever is trapped in it.
Emma: -Is that how they brought Wawa without him being able to do anything? – adjusting the glasses on his face.
Marin: -Exactly, but I think that just wouldn't be a match for someone who can use high-level kendo like him. – with displeasure to say that.
Ohmoi: -That's why they sent 3 of the Dan Kyoshi control. - smiling. -You might not like Wawa, Marin, but that guy has style. – remembers something from his childhood.
Kakui: -So does that mean we have to learn this until the tournament? – conferred the role of the tournament after taking it from Haru who looks like "why do I do that". - but it's already tomorrow.
Marin: -aahahhahhahahah!
Kakui: -What's that? Did it go crazy? - startled by that laugh of hers.
Marin: -you are very screwed, you will have to master at least one of these Dokkōdō Kendo if you want to have the slightest chance of participating in the tournament, and learning to use such techniques can take years of academy and you only have one night to master the control thin of hokkoshin or it will be certain death for all of us. – with a psychopath look.
Haru: -We didn't come here to give up now, if we have to learn that to get to our goal, let's do whatever is necessary isn't it! – he shouts towards the other two.
Emma: - Absolutely. – determined.
Kakui: -You can, by faith, yes. – with the face would be.
Juji: -Haru... - Feeling his heart speed up.
Gyu: -good... - happy for their decision.
Marin: -That's why I liked you right away. – smiling excitedly. -Very well to start your training I need to explain something first. – showing a bit of his hokkoshin. -each individual has its particularity and with Hokkoshin it is no different, each being has a different hokkoshin signature that differentiates it from the others, you must be able to dismiss beings by their hokkoshin signature to have a fine control of this energy and so you can do the Dokkōdō Kendo, only then will they be able to evolve one by one, and in the end this will help them in their main Kamae.
Haru: -It's like the sinister energy you felt coming from the Ogres. – looking at Kakui.
Kakui: -Now that you say it, you seem to have the same feeling, but what I feel is the death wish coming from them, I believe this is different, but it has the same origin.
Marin: -what you felt really isn't a hokkoshin signature, what you felt is dread of death, only newbies feel this fear of ogres. And they use it to hunt their prey more easily.
Kakui: -em? -Without understanding what she said well, but it turns out that she didn't feel so much sensation after she started training with Wawa and Mileyde. - so that was it...
Marin: -in other words, the hokkoshin signature goes beyond any sense, it goes beyond the worlds, that completely dominates it reaches a place that only the great can go, the process is arduous.
Emma: -interesting. – writing everything down in a notebook.
Haru: -beyond the senses... - he remembers his blindfold training.
Ohmoi: -Dear wife, the training room is ready. – coming out of nowhere again.
Kakui: -this guy disappears and appears out of nowhere... - intrigued by that.
Marin: -We don't have much time, so everyone follow me. – descending through a trapdoor outside the house.
Everyone follows Marin and Ohmoi to a place on a level below the house where they were, the place was cold and damp where a small stream entered, around it was full of planted vegetables, used by Gyu and Juji in the sale where they take some daily sustenance.
Emma: -who knew there would be such a place underground. – looking at the location.
Juji: -our plantation of big vegetables thanks to the special ores here. – shown to Haru. -What do you think of my beetroot? – well placed in Haru.
Haru: -It's pretty big, isn't it? – a little red with Juji so close to him like that.
Marin: -Hey you guys stop the small talk and come here now and get ahead of me all of you. – looking at them lining up. -You too Juji.
Juji: -Me? – was putting the beetroot in its place. -But Mrs. Marin, I don't know how to fight very well. – touching the index fingers together.
Marin: -you're the one with the best hokkoshin control here Juji, we're going to need your location sense, to find where Mileyde and Wawa are - speaking firmly.
Juji: -Okay, master. – placing himself in front of her with the others with an expression of dissatisfaction.
Gyu: -You don't have to do this if you don't want to, Juji. – looking at her.
Juji: -It's okay. - taking a deep breath. -if you need me.
Haru: -Juji... - Noticing her with a strange look.
Ohmoi: -Well, as my lovely, incredible and talented wife said, you will have to learn to distinguish something only by hokkoshin, but for that you must master Dokkōdō Kendo, but Gyu and Juji already know. – walked in front of them back and forth. -Having said that they are both very weak in kendo versus kendo combat so I will stay with them to develop your kendo skills in kenjujsu, already you three. – turned to the three of the real world. -My sincere apologies for what will happen.
Emma: -What?
Haru: -What do you mean?
Kakui: -What's going to happen?
Marin: -real shinai: lily lilac! – taking the shinai out of the yukata.
At that moment Marin Garden calls out the name of his real shinai, which makes his clothes change from a yukata to a lilac-colored hakama with traces of white lilies, a very light lilac-colored Keiko Gi with white, his hair is foolishly lilac, the lilies on her bust cover the entire chest region, her eyes now have a flower in the iris, her shinai has the lilac guard and the blade with a darker shade of lilac.
Marin: -It's been a while since I used lily lilac, Kamae no Shi...
Kakui: -shi? – terrified by that word.
Emma: -It can't be. - pulls the shinai.
Haru: -What kind of kenjutsu is this? - distressed.
Marin: -Tai and Dai! - When Marin puts her shinai on the ground, two lily buds appear in front of where she is, and two mysterious spherical shapes come out of them when each flower blooms, such shapes are surrounding Marin and until they stop on her shoulders and so on. surrounded by an almost colorless transparent flame.
Emma: -what are these things?- feeling unbalanced.
Marin: -Those are the Dai and Tai spirits. – the spheres open eyes and a smile. -lily lilac is a shinai of death, the posture of spirits.
Kakui: -That's macabre for a cassette. – feeling a strong energy coming from the spheres who smile in a Machiavellian way.
Marin: - fine control consists of materializing the hokkoshin in its purest form and for that you will have to feel where your willpower comes from, where your energy comes from, discover this and you will be able to use any of the Dokkōdō Kendo . – the spirits begin to fly around the three. -Your challenge is the following, stop me from using Tai and Dai using Dokkōdō Kendo #12 and you will be able to go to the tournament.
Emma: -speaking like that, it's even easier - with the shinai in hand.
Marin: -be quick in your intentions! - moving the shinai.
Haru: -What? – being punched by Tai, Marin's spirit.
Marin: -I said, be quick in your actions. - smiling.
Haru: -I didn't know it had started. – with blood running from the corner of his mouth.
Emma: -technically she spoke intentions. – being hit by Dai right in the middle of the back.
The Tai and Dai spirits begin to spin at high speed while Marin runs using her Ashi-Sabaki, during these spins they will hit the three of them in different parts of their bodies one after the other in sections of 5 hits each.
Haru: -Now I know why Ohmoi apologized. - vomiting dinner.
Kakui: -She's having fun with us, so there's only one way to do it, it's to burn everything here! – preparing to launch salamander flames.
Marin: -Fool. – kicking Kakui's face that is thrown back.
Kakui: -ah damn it... - with a bloody nose. -You didn't say you would attack too. - irritated.
Marin: -and you expected me to look at it. - smiling.
Kakui: -I'll beat you up! – with the fist trying to stop the bleeding.
Emma: -she can be scarier than Mileyde. – being attacked by Marin between the ribs. -aaaa!
Haru: -That's not good at all. - disoriented. -It's worse than grandpa's training. – taking a meeting from Tai and Dai at the same time.
