Chapter 34: ch33
🎊1.5 Months advance chapter in Patreon (40 ahead chapter in there) 🎊
After staying in the cave for two peaceful days, Shinobu Kocho's leg and wrist injuries were almost healed.
Though Shinobu's medical skills were exceptional, injuries to muscles and bones typically take much longer to heal. Clearly, medical skills alone couldn't solve these problems.
However, her recovery ability was noticeably different from that of ordinary people. In just two days, the area injured by the gunshot had almost healed.
During these two days, Sam Miller hadn't been idle. He went hunting to provide necessary nutrition for both Shinobu and Kanao.
Pheasant, mountain rabbit, wild boar, cheetah, mountain deer... The small cave was filled with prey.
With sufficient food and Shinobu Kocho's expertise in medicine and pharmacy, Kanao Tsuyuri's health improved significantly. Her once pale face was now much rosier, with a healthy flush, making her look cute.
She had taken one step closer to becoming a beautiful young woman, something Sam was gradually looking forward to. He anticipated this still young fruit slowly maturing into the sweetest fruit.
...
That night, as the soft moonlight fell, his spirits lifted once again. During the day, he always felt weak and lethargic, but at night, his energy returned with strength.
Staying in the cave for so long had become dull. In the past two days, he would go out to practice swordsmanship.
But today, watching Shinobu Kocho, who was almost fully recovered, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. "Shinobu, do you want to go out and spar?"
Shinobu, who was combing Kanao Tsuyuri's hair, looked up at Sam, eager to try. Her purple eyes sparkled slightly.
Although Sam hadn't restricted her movements these past two days, she remained conscious of being a captive and stayed quietly in the cave.
Now, hearing Sam's proposal for a friendly match, she felt invigorated. She had been bored staying in the dark cave for two days, and Sam's suggestion fulfilled her wish. She had wanted to test this very special ghost for a long time.
"Alright," Shinobu agreed almost without thinking.
After tidying the last strand of Kanao's hair, Shinobu clapped her hands and walked out of the cave.
Sam smiled, leading Kanao outside as well, looking at Shinobu's back. He wasn't worried about her running away.
In fact, he had intended to let her go for some time, and if she really wanted to escape, he wouldn't stop her.
Clearly, Shinobu had perceived his intentions, but curiously, she had no desire to run away for the time being.
She seemed quite interested in him as a ghost now.
Outside, they stood more than ten feet apart, facing each other.
Sam reached behind him and pulled out one of the swords.
The orange hilt, four-leaf clover guard, emerald green handle, and peach-colored blade glowed softly in the moonlight.
This Nichirin Blade belonged to Kanae Kocho, Shinobu's older sister. Kanae had used this sword to strike his shoulder, which he caught and took away.
With a flick, he tossed the Nichirin Blade to Shinobu.
The girl caught the blade in astonishment, stroked it, and looked at Sam with a complicated expression.
"You're giving me the Nichirin Blade, aren't you afraid I'll kill you?" she asked softly. Everyone knew that there were only a few ways to kill ghosts, and the Nichirin Blade was one of them.
"I'm not afraid. At least, you won't kill me now," Sam shrugged, looking confidently at Shinobu.
Of course, his confidence in his strength played a significant role.
Over the past two days, as he became more familiar with his capabilities, his strength had grown considerably.
"You are the strangest ghost I have ever seen," Shinobu observed, pursing her lips. "You don't eat people, you don't drink human blood, you don't have the characteristics of a ghost. If it weren't for the two horns on your head, I would think you're human. If you weren't a ghost, I think you'd be quite popular with girls."
Sam smiled. "Why don't you introduce your sister to me? I quite like her. She's very gentle, very suitable to be a wife."
Shinobu raised her eyebrows, glaring at Sam annoyedly. "Your mouth is as annoying as ever."
He chuckled, not bothered by her remark, and drew another Nichirin Blade from his back. Gripping the hilt, he looked at Shinobu and bowed slightly. "Sam Miller, please advise me."
At that moment, his face became extremely serious.
Shinobu Kocho also narrowed her eyes slightly, gripping her sword's hilt tightly in her palm, and bowed as well. "Shinobu Kocho, please advise me."
