I don't want to be a heroic spirit

The sword that Edwards swung out in anger actually cut off the "trajectory" of the falling wind and snow, which led to this miraculous scene.

There is no doubt that Edelweiss's swordsmanship has reached the divine realm, and she herself is the pinnacle of swordsmanship in this world.

The stunning sight of the sky being split in two lasted only about ten minutes, and then the "line" that Edwards had cut disappeared. The wind and snow fell unimpeded, turning the world into an unchanging pure white, just like before.

But Okita Souji could not forget that amazing sword. The sword that split the sky was imprinted in her eyes, her spiritual base, and her soul.

Along with that stunning view, Okita Souji also remembered… the fact that he must never tell Edelweiss that she had gained weight in front of her.

He's really going to die!

Testimonials

After writing 150,000 words, my book is about to be put on the shelves.

It’s really not easy. I think I have been maintaining two updates a day until now?

It's clearly vacation, but I hardly even play games or read novels every day. Except for eating and sleeping, I sit in front of the computer almost the whole day. I don't know how long I can last this kind of life.

However, even so, the number of words I write every day is pitifully small. I can barely write two chapters to be updated daily and then a little more as a reserve.

I am not a very good author, nor can I write a good story. I never thought I could achieve the results I have now. I sincerely thank all the readers for their support, even those who are only going to read the free chapters. I also want to thank you for reading my book.

Then, as I mentioned before, there is the issue of rewards.

Since it is my first time to give rewards, I don’t know what the standard is. I read some books by big guys, and many of them are 50 monthly tickets, 5000 rewards, and 50 blades per update. Then there is a heavyweight big guy who charges 100 monthly tickets, 10000 rewards, and 100 blades per update. This one is too powerful, so I won’t use it as a reference.

Did I say 30 before? Because I wasn't sure how to do it, I was thinking of making it 40 monthly tickets per update, 40000 rewards per update, and 40 blades per update. But then I thought... the month is already halfway over, and I guess readers have almost used up their monthly tickets, blades, and so on. If I want to give more rewards or blades, I have to spend money.

For a failed author like me, whose books are not very interesting, there shouldn't be many people willing to spend money to reward me, right?

So, in the end, we decided to use 30 as the standard.

30 monthly tickets per update, 3000 rewards per update, 30 blades per update.

The duration is two days, that is, until 2:18 on February 0th.

I have already recorded my initial results: 171 monthly tickets; 10176 rewards; 130 blades

Readers can just give as much as they like. The author will try his best to maintain the two daily updates.

That's it. Thank you again for your support and companionship. I also hope that there will be people willing to support my book after it is put on the shelves.

Thank you! ! ヾ(≧▽≦*)o

Chapter 67 Just to Meet You

When Edwards came back, there was an unconcealable joy on his face.

"Your chairman is really understanding. He readily agreed to let Souji live with me outside. I didn't even need to draw my sword."

So you really intend to draw your sword?

What about "just a simple friendly chat"?

Afterwards, the two of them enjoyed the exquisite and sweet dessert prepared by Souji Okita at the dining table.

Edwards enjoyed the dessert made by Souji Okita, and Souji Okita enjoyed Edwards' smile, which was as sweet as the dessert.

Okita Souji felt that this was the expression that should appear on Edwards' face, not the expression that was as cold as winter, as lonely as a snowy peak, and as indifferent as if it was independent of the world when they first met.

It was an indifferent expression that was very consistent with the title of "the world's strongest swordsman", as if the person standing in front of Okita Souji was not a person but some kind of "Tao" with a physical form. However, looking at the indifference in his eyes, Okita Souji inexplicably felt a little lonely and sad.

During these years of getting along, Okita Souji seemed to have witnessed the entire process of a fairy from the ninth heaven slowly falling into the mortal world. He saw with his own eyes that the pure white like snow was gradually dyed with more and more colors, which also allowed her to gradually show an increasingly true self.

There were just too many colors, and she didn't even know where or when Edward got some of them.

"Come on, Souji, ah~~~~"

Seeing Edwards feeding her cake in a sweet tone as if coaxing a child to eat, Souji Okita couldn't help but blush.

"Ed..."

"Ok?"

"Sister Xiaoai, I'm not a child. I can eat by myself."

"But here, my sister, I will always be your little child. There's nothing wrong with me curling up in your arms like a baby and acting like a spoiled brat."

...seems like a very tempting proposal?

"If you don't like me feeding you, then go try on some clothes. I saw a pink princess dress on the way here that would suit you perfectly~~"

"Awoo! The desserts my sister fed me are so delicious!"

Okita Souji gave in shamefully.

It was late at night and everyone was asleep.

After taking a shower and changing into pajamas, Souji Okita came into the room, laid down on the soft double bed with his arms resting his head on it, and after doing nothing for a while, he took out his student handbook.

"Hmm? This is... the list for the tryouts?"

All students who have not graduated from Pojun Academy will be registered for the "Seven Star Sword Dance Representative Selection Competition" by default, but they are eligible to abstain.

The student handbook contains the time, location and name of the opponent for the first qualifying match.

It seemed like it had been sent out a long time ago, but Okita Souji only had time to take out the student handbook and look through it just now.

Okita Souji casually glanced at his opponent's name, hmm... he didn't recognize it.

Then Okita Souji lost interest and was too lazy to even check his opponent's abilities and stats.

Although she didn't remember much about the plot and had forgotten many characters, she still roughly remembered some key plots and characters.

For example, the male and female protagonists, the world's strongest swordsman Edward Weiss, and several people who make the male protagonist very difficult.

Especially the student council president of Pojun Academy, Okita Souji has a deep impression of her. She is recognized as the strongest in Pojun Academy and one of the top four in the last "Seven Star Sword Dance Festival", Toudou Touka.

The "strongest" of Pojun Academy is completely opposite to the "weakest" of F-class Kurogane Ikki. She is also Kurogane Ikki's last opponent in the selection competition. It was because of that game that the real climax of this series was born.

"I will use my weakest to defeat your strongest!"

"If I don't even have a minute to stand a chance, if I can't even defeat the incarnation of Shura, if it's all over with just one swing of the sword, then I will put everything I have into this one blow!"

Toudou Touka's special ability is the control of lightning in the nature interference system, and she is also a swordsman who can make Okita Souji excited.

It is said that although she was one of the top four in the previous "Seven Star Sword Dance Festival", she was invincible in the crossing distance. Even the "Seven Star Sword King" of that time did not dare to enter her crossing distance, and could only narrowly defeat the opponent by relying on the advantage of weapon length.

"Ah, if only I could fight her..."

"Who are you going to fight with?"

The sudden words made Okita Souji use his shrinking skill to instantly dodge to the foot of the bed, staring at the smiling Edwards in horror.

"Sister...Sister Xiaoai, why did you come into my room without even saying hello?"

"What do you mean, your room?" Edelweiss, wearing only a thin, off-the-shoulder nightgown, walked slowly to the bedside and sat down, her right thigh folded over her left. Her bare feet, uncovered by socks, seemed to gleam in the light. "This is my room. I've been sleeping here since I moved in."

"what?"

Okita Souji looked around and spoke cautiously.

"But...when I asked me where I was going to sleep, you told me to sleep here?"

"Why? Sister and sister are reunited after a long separation. Wouldn't it be nice to sleep together to strengthen their relationship?"

Hiss—where should I start complaining?

"But it seems like we've only been apart for a few months?"

"But it feels like I haven't held my sister in my arms for decades!"

Then, Edwards jumped up and pounced on the shocked Okita Souji.

"Come on! Sister! Give Sister Xiao Ai a loving kiss~~!"

"Ya Zhudie! (っ°Д °;)っ"

Edelweiss was very happy. Her feeling of happiness was like a steaming hot spring, and she was completely immersed in this hot spring of happiness.

Although she said words of refusal, when she pounced on her, her sister Okita Souji did not choose to run away, but hugged her in panic.

Just because I was worried that she would fall.

Edwards knew that Okita Souji possessed an extreme speed that was difficult for anyone to reach. In terms of movement speed alone, there was almost no one in the world who could match him.

If Okita Souji really wanted to run away, not even Edwards would be able to catch her.

But she didn't. No matter how willful she acted, although Okita Souji said he was not happy, he always managed to satisfy her little willfulness.

Everyone in the world sees her as the strongest and the most evil in the world, but only Okita Souji can treat her as an ordinary person, a girl who is a little willful and a little lonely.

Of course she knew that there was no way Edwards would be injured from a fall, but she still subconsciously stretched out her arms and embraced her as if accepting her completely.

Edwards hugged Okita Souji with his arms and rested his head on his shoulder. The feeling of happiness was like a fine wine that had been treasured for many years, overflowing from his heart and flowing throughout his body.

"The loneliness and confusion I endured in those years must have been in exchange for a chance to meet you one day in the future."

Chapter 68 Waiting for you to come back

The bright sunshine was blocked outside by the thick curtains, and only a few thin strands of light, as thin as silk threads, shone through the gaps in the curtains onto the floor inside the house.

Souji Okita was not woken up by the alarm clock, because the moment she opened her eyes, a beautiful and sweet sleeping face caught her eye.

She unconsciously slowed down her breathing and quietly turned off the alarm clock on the bedside table so as not to disturb the peaceful sleeping face.

After using a special breathing rhythm to dispel sleepiness, Okita Souji was about to get up when he was stopped.

It turned out that his arms and legs were tightly entangled.

She looked at the arm that was being hugged, and was dazzled by the vast expanse of white.

Edelweiss's nightgown was originally a very loose style. Perhaps because of her bad sleeping posture, the shoulder straps had slipped down to near her elbows, and nearly half of her snow-white peaks were exposed, being squeezed and deformed on Souji Okita's arms.

This was a stunning sight that could cause any man to bleed to death, but Okita Souji only felt deep helplessness.

After finally freeing herself from the restraints that were tougher than an octopus, Okita Souji just sat up and put on her slippers. Before she could even breathe a sigh of relief, a pair of snow-white arms gently wrapped around her waist.

"General Manager...General Manager..."

The coquettish whispers as sweet as honey echoed in his ears. Even in his sleep, Edwards felt uneasy when Okita Souji's scent disappeared from his arms. He followed the scent and hugged him in a half-awake state.

This made Okita Souji not know whether to laugh or cry or be flattered.

"Really, sister, I still have to go to school..."

Looking at Edelweiss who was slowly climbing onto his lap, Okita Souji reached out and stroked her head, smoothing down her long hair which had become a little messy due to her moving around at night.

"Then... don't go to school. Stay with me... I'll take good care of you..."

That beautiful singing voice was now full of coquettishness. When Souji Okita's hand stroked her head, she would occasionally make comfortable nasal sounds like a kitten, which made Souji Okita, who continued to stroke her head, laugh.

“Who is taking care of whom?”

The apartment rented by Edwards is some distance away from Pojun Academy, but it's okay because the course schedule at Pojun Academy is very easy, especially since the "Seven Star Sword Dance Representative Selection Competition" will be held soon, so even if Souji Okita is late, it won't be a big deal.

Anyway, I definitely won't be scolded for being late and made to stand in the corridor or anything like that.

Okita Souji, who had already changed into his school uniform, came to the entrance and prepared to get his shoes from the shoe cabinet.

"General..."

A voice as ethereal and pleasant as a guqin or bamboo flute softly called out Okita Souji's name, with a hint of fear in the voice.

Okita Souji's hand paused in mid-air, and then he spoke softly without turning his head.

"Sister Xiao Ai, I made you some porridge and put it in the kitchen. Don't eat high-calorie foods like desserts so early in the morning. Have a light breakfast occasionally."

The door was opened, and Okita Souji's back looked a little dreamy in the sunlight outside the door. Only those caring words echoed in the room.

"I'm going out. Let's have dinner together when I come back in the evening."

In the moment when Edwards was distracted, the door was closed by Souji Okita.

It was as if she was alone again, and the silence and loneliness seemed like they would rush over and surround her in the next moment.

however……

"Well, I'll wait for you to come back."

Edwards covered his heart with his hands, and a bright smile that made the sun outside the window pale in comparison slowly appeared on his face.
