Soya didn't expect that Noma Minami would call him here specifically just to act as a sounding board for old man Miyagi.
But he was idle, and he didn't want to listen to Yoshikawa, who was holding on to his fixed ideas, talking about quantum mechanics, so he agreed.
On the way here, Kirino Akane had already told him the general situation of the spirit body on the ground.
One person and one spirit sat opposite each other. Zonggu looked at the sharp horns on his helmet and spoke first.
"Mr. Mihara."
"..."
He didn't hear clearly and moved closer.
"What?"
Noma Minami stood aside with his arms folded, "He speaks very quietly, listen carefully."
Zonggu had no choice but to move forward again.
"...Hello, I'm sorry just now."
The scratch on his face was still aching, so Sogu waved his hand to show that it was okay.
"To Mr. Miyagi too, I'm very sorry - that's what he said." He relayed to the old man Miyagi.
Since his precious armor left many marks during the fight, it was difficult for Miyagi to say "it doesn't matter" to him;
But since the other party was already dead, he couldn't ask him to compensate him, so he simply decided to ignore the matter and just talk to him for a while as a fellow fan of ancient Japanese armor.
"I just heard Mr. Mihara mentioning 'the world's best', so he must know a lot about Japanese armor. I wonder which type of armor Mr. Mihara likes best?"
After all, it was a term I had never heard of before, so Soya confirmed it twice before relaying: "Mr. Mihara said it is ashigaru."
"Since it is a protective gear for combat, it is natural to put aside the gorgeous decoration and the purest actual combat armor, which is the most popular."
"Well……"
Miyagi sat down and said, "It is undeniable that what Mr. Mihara said makes sense."
"But as a modern collector, I don't think there is anything wrong with pursuing beauty. To be honest, before Mr. Mihara put on this armor, I never thought that anyone would wear it. Even if it is a bit bulky..."
Noma Minami quickly lost interest in this topic and turned around and went outside.
She was also considering whether she could directly inform the local shrine that the commission had been completed - they had caught the mischievous spirit, and the latter even had a pleasant conversation with the client.
She was in no hurry to go back. After all, it only took about half an hour to drive back to Jinhu.
"Forget it, let's talk about it after we finish talking."
Standing beside the edge, looking at the dusk on the horizon, Noma Minami sat down.
"When you go back later, would you like to 'pass by' Shiromaru Shrine..."
...
Unexpectedly, two Japanese armor enthusiasts chatted for more than an hour.
As a mouthpiece, Zonggu found it difficult to listen and his mouth was dry to speak. He began to feel that there was nothing wrong with talking about quantum mechanics occasionally.
Sitting next to him, Yoshikawa Anko had her head lowered and was drowsy. Even the floating Sengoku armor could not keep her energetic.
As for Kirino Akane, she had already gone out to look for Noma Minami.
Miyagi, the old collector, patted his thigh.
"I've always wanted to see with my own eyes Honda Tadakatsu's Black Ito Power Body Pills and his weapon, the Dragonfly Kiri."
After a while, Zonggu said:
"(Mr. Mihara said) I was lucky enough to see the Dragonfly Kiri in the Tokyo National Museum. You can feel its sharpness through the glass. It is truly one of the three guns in Japan."
"Really... Speaking of which, I also collected a few fighting knives, but they are just ordinary and unknown toys."
"(Mr. Mihara said) Is it true? Can you let me have a look at Mr. Miyagi's collection?"
"hehe……"
Miyagi stood up, with a bit of contentment in his smile, "It's just an ordinary knife fight."
"But if Mr. Mihara wants to see it, I won't be stingy. Please wait here for a moment."
He turned around and left the Japanese room. Souya took a moment to catch his breath and let out a long breath.
"You guys are so good at talking."
The armor shook, "I'm really sorry... After becoming like this, I haven't talked to others about my past hobbies for a long time."
"Mr. Mihara is not a local, where do you plan to go next?"
"Kyoto. I heard that there is a very powerful person there who can help people like us realize their wishes."
really……
Zong Gu was not surprised.
To put it harshly, his former first love was the most beautiful flower in the world of the dead. No matter where the spirit came from, he wanted to go to Kyoto to smell it.
"Kyoto is not far away. Don't make any more pranks from now on. No one will stop Mr. Mihara."
"Ok, I see."
Miyagi quickly returned to the Japanese room here, holding two sheathed Japanese swords.
After all, it is a sharp weapon, and if you are not careful, the consequences will be disastrous. Souya asked Asagiri Suzu and the dazed Yoshikawa to move aside.
Wow——
There was a sound of armor plates, and Mihara, who was wearing armor, stood up and respectfully took one of the swords.
"If you are dressed in a contemporary style, using a sword as a weapon is really inappropriate," Miyagi said.
Soya felt the same way. Wearing such a thick and wide armor, it would be more harmonious to pair it with a long-handled weapon such as a spear or naginata.
With a clatter, Mihara pulled out his sword, the blade glowing with cold light.
He dropped the scabbard and held the handle of the knife with both hands, but it didn't change the incongruous state of the sword.
"it is as expected……"
Miyagi pondered and handed out another sword, "Mr. Mihara, do you want to try the double sword style?"
no respond.
The sharp blade that was held flat suddenly dropped down.
And when the tip of the knife was about to reach the ground, it was lifted up again - even higher than before.
"..."
Miyagi was stunned.
The next moment, a cold light flashed, and the sword raised high struck him in the head.
Ding!
The blades meet.
Miyagi looked blankly at Soya who suddenly stood in front of him. The other katana that was in his hand just now had fallen into his hand.
"The spirit body has mutated..."
His back was turned, and his voice was calm, but like a sigh.
"Stay away, Mr. Mihara has turned into an evil spirit that can hurt people."
Ding!
Another slash came, but Zonggu blocked it again, but the force of the slash made his jaw go numb.
Miyuan was very powerful, and he had already suffered some losses when his mind was still normal. Now he suddenly mutated, became murderous, and attacked without any scruples.
The most dangerous thing is that he also has a sharp blade in his hand that can cut people like clay.
"Everyone, get out." Soya reminded without looking back, "Call Miss Noma to come over."
The third knife had also been struck, but he did not catch it forcefully and moved backwards.
Yoshikawa, who suddenly regained consciousness, also pulled Asagiri Suzu and the dazed old man Miyagi out of the room.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
Seeing someone escaping, Mihara approached again with a sword in his hand. The attack was like rain. Souya had no time to evade, so he could only block with his sword.
The ghost is going to kill someone!
Yoshikawa, who dragged Asagiri Suzu and Miyagi away, was filled with panic. Hearing the sound of sword fights behind him, he became worried about Soya, who was left alone.
"Go find Miss Noma!"
She entrusted the matters Souya had explained to Asagiri Suzu and returned.
"..."
Chao Kirin stretched out her hand to grab her, but failed to hold her, so she had to go to Noma Minami immediately.
Yoshikawa, who turned around, did not dare to return to the Japanese room where the fight was taking place. She hid outside the door, watching Soya block and dodge, and almost couldn't fight back.
Apart from calling the police, she was so anxious that she could think of no other solution.
"..."
Suddenly, she touched the amulet in her pocket.
["This amulet can suppress the spiritual sense, making me like an ordinary person, unable to see the spiritual body. Of course, the spiritual body will also lose its sensitivity to me... Forget it if you don't understand, it's just here for you temporarily anyway."
A moment."]
"Soya!"
When the evil spirit's attack failed again, she shouted, "Amulet! Come to me!"
Zonggu was shocked.
"Run!"
After being unable to attack for a long time, the evil spirit immediately chose to change the target of its attack after discovering Yoshikawa.
"..."
She wanted to run away, but after taking a few steps back, her legs and feet became weak and she couldn't take a step forward.
She threw the amulet with her last strength and fell to the ground.
The floating armor held the floating knife and kept approaching until it stopped in front of her.
Holding the sharp blade high——
The amulet fell to the ground, but at this moment the other knife jumped up high and waved out a circle of cold light.
