The morning sun shone through the wooden curtain down the steps. The sound of birds chirping Today the sky is bright The boy looked at the way ahead of him that was too far to be mentioned. He still remembers the experience of walking up and down to the monastery two days ago.

Now he has come down to the front of the door. First, the way up Mio Tentsu The old man said that running up and down this mountain is another way to train his body. At least able to do so without racers. Temma closed his eyes and inhaled the air into the lungs.

Green eyes, the sea awakened with the first leg to step out. He will not suffocate like the first day. Two hours later ... In front of the monastery, gate Appeared soft hands, slowly reaching up to grab the destination pillar, walk the stone before pushing up slowly The hissing breath made the old man standing in front to tear a smile before pointing to the bottom. Causing the boy to open his eyes wide, exhaustion completely vanished He flicked his eyes at his teacher with an unconfident face.

"As you think ... Rundown and then run back up If at this speed It will probably be midday and afternoon. "The old man stood counting his fingers and then turned to the pupil who didn't seem to go down at all. "Do you want me to throw you down two more times or will you go down?" Just before the end, the boy turned back and ran down immediately. That diligent attitude made the old man laugh about the past ... It has been a long time since I hadn't trained anyone.

That midday The old man sipped tea in his hand with a relaxed expression. Far to the left of the Buddha Sliding doors with a slim body, stream grooves stepped in like a hell of hell. The pale boy stepped in, sat down, standing, shaking his hand out, grabbed his weapon, and ate his food. Think of continuous training that will occur from now on, only sitting depressed.

"Not yet Will you give up? "At the end of that term, the boy's body stopped and turned to the old man. "Remember that feeling. What do you train hard for? "The boy turned around and looked at him, thinking about yesterday. He took a deep breath before proceeding to handle the food in front of his eyes. Focus on it.

"Yes!"

"These two buds are different because of the freshness and the different qualities Such as yak. ​​If raw yak is medicine, if yak is cooked, it will be food. Both of these flowers as well. Just different? Don't come to use that vocabulary with me. "In the end, the princess pulled her hand into the middle of his head. Appeared a large gourd The large and small animals shouted and flew together. The boy's body got stuck with the soil in his cellphone, daring to put vegetables. "Have I spoken to your ears?"

"Yes!" Agh! The young man was blindfolded with a white cloth, just like an old man. Stood up again with an old man walking around with a wooden sword "Touch it Then you can dodge it yourself. "Temma didn't answer. The old man saw it, so he threw the wooden sword at the other's neck.

That evening The old man walked him into the middle of the forest. "Okay, into that pond." The boy looked at the other hand. "That's ..." The old man smiled brightly. You must sit there to endure it until morning or until the rooster crows. "The boy swallowed saliva, looking at the forest squirrel that fell from the treetops into the pond. Suddenly, that sluggish forest squirrel jumped up and scrambled out of the water as he could, rushing to the tree immediately.

"You can go down now." That the old man kicked the young boy into the spring well, heard the cry mixed with water chasing after. "Don't get out. Otherwise, I will consider that you have chosen to reject the training. "Even though I heard that the sound behind Tsunase didn't fade away.

Jib the birds chirping. Today is another day when the sky is bright. The boy ran limp in the mountain like he was not sleeping. And he finally fell He rolled down the steps that ran until almost falling continuously if he did not grab the staircase. The boy breathed in a loud voice, thinking of his feelings that day. So lean up again Run-up

"You should use fermentation to bring out the flavor of the pickles. Have you ever soaked in water? Then grilled fish at your house to eat with pickle soup? "She shouted in a high voice, almost pointing the pupil's eyes. "My home has anything to eat. That's it, Yoruhime." Heard, she only sighed. "In this hurry, try to make cold vegetables. To resist the taste of grilled fish will make the taste better for the grilled fish, understand or not? "The boy nodded. "I ask if you understand?"

"Yes sir!" cut the picture to the body of a boy on the top of the hill. Temma meditated on one of the rock tops. With an old man standing beside "Touch it What are you hearing? "Without feedback "What does the wind tell you ..." was not yet finished. Tsunase felt that something was wrong. He walked towards Temma.

Snore ... Snore! Agh! The boy's body rolled into the stairway. With an old man shaking his head for the trainer He put his foot in his feet and touched as before. Then walked up to the top Looking down at the valley below The wedge, mist, cold air that floated up and touched the nose, bringing the mind to calm down. Soon the old man's touch cried out to turn him back. Found a young boy who ran back up to carry a hack.

"You came up faster than expected. From the kicking force, I guess another half an hour. "The boy smiled. How high did the teacher give him a fee? Before the other person rolled into another round when the man broke his feet to kick the young boy again "Master Tsunase!!!" The sound rang from the beloved pupils. "Your reaction is too slow."

"You will have to patiently lie in this spring for two days. In three days, I'll let you sit in the waterfall. You didn't have a day to rest. Do you understand? "One child who was full of sleep was full of eyes. Dodge the foot that enters as if cognizant before falling with the force of the swollen wood buds!

Several days later, the boy ran up the hill in a much more dynamic manner. When the old man saw it, he secretly smiled at him. When he saw that the young man was about to run down He called to surprise the young man quite a bit. Before suddenly becoming depressed. When he saw that a stone log fell from the top of the monastery, down his tongue down the path that he had to run Some saw the log trapping swinging from the bamboo grove by the way. He smiled and turned to his teacher, who smiled brightly in response.

"Already down." The man shook his feet up and kicked, but the young boy managed to hide before bowing down to avoid the drawn wooden sword. But then was scrubbed, falling and kicked by the old man to bounce down the road anyway "Next time, I won't miss you for sure." The shouting of the young boy rumbled, making the old man smile wide, thinking of someone else whose condition was not very different from that young man. The unknown stepped foot out of the monastery behind, causing the old man to smile even more with a mouth.

"Looks like I will lose a bet with this kid," the snow-skinned woman smiled.

"Bet on whether he would give up like the others who left you or not." Tsunase did not answer that question.

"And how are you ... How is he doing in your training? "She shook his head." Very bad, remembering slowly, difficult to pass my test. "The old man laughed at the expression of the other person. "Look, your tongue can't change anything." Yoruhime shook his face. "But if you say that much, then you have to pay attention to them at all.

Otherwise, would you have complained so much? "She laughed.

"Look, you know me very well, Tsunase." The old man bent his head slightly. "If in the past Lady probably would not even say anything. That is the one I saw that day.

"The woman poked her eyes to the ground. "What do you think, if I would take this boy to see you, Tenggu, one time?" The old man looked more towards the other.

"You seem to pay more attention to him than I thought. For me, I think it's not, but I'm not sure about the future. If you say this, it means you have already decided. "Tsunase, who seems more polite when staying alone with her, asks. "So probably I think it's time for me to inherit this mountain. "

Generously! Both of them left the conversation, looking at the body of something hit by a log on the side of the road and knocked him to the ground for several moments. "I will tell him by myself"

"SO COLD!!!" That's what the boy wanted to shout at the most. But he didn't say anything, he just tried to close his eyes, breathe in and out as natural as possible. Ask why? Temma is now sitting in the waterfall at night. By the two hints that the old man gave were Feel it and be one with the stream

Although he was able to dodge the Master's attacks, that was not all. He said that his touch was not yet awake. But I can feel that there is something here with me now. But that shouldn't hurt him because it was the smell he was familiar with. It was the smell of the first demon he encountered.

"Come out, Yoruhime I know that you are standing there. "

"Look, you can feel it faster and better. I wouldn't have to ask how I knew it was me. "

"That answer, you already know. "But come to me in the middle of the night. Is there any reason?"

Temma sat there, he didn't open his eyes or moved. Therefore cannot see what the other party is going to do Can only feel that he approached him little by little but not clear

"Look at you getting cold." Slender arms drew "What if this?" This time, Temma couldn't feel the other person's existence. There was only instinct that he called him to tilt his head to the right quickly.

Fub! The swing ran pass him the same time he grabs it.

"No! I'm not strong enough," the boy opened his eyes. Looking at his hand, grasping the other's arm firmly The princess appeared, with a still face, lips stretched straight. "So from today, show me that you are strong enough. I will give you time to finish the fall. If you do not do well enough, I will drive you out of this monastery. No matter what Tsunase says, this valley belongs to me. And no matter what you look for, you will never find this valley and me. Do you understand? "

"Understand" After seeing the determined eyes, she relaxed her smile.

"I trust to give you the final exam opportunity. If you can pass me, you will meet that person. He is not kind like me or Tsunase. Therefore, if you can't do it, I will consider that you fail the examination unconditionally. Will you disappoint me? "

"No sir" that after the end, Temma also received the kick that charged him again. Temma rolled over to look at the other person who ran on the water surface and charged him. They held hands for so long until the sun began to rise again.

Temma threw his weight backward, dodging the impending log before pushing him through that gap and punching the rock that had fallen into pieces. Meant to cross, but was still motionless when he found many arrows hidden behind that stone.

He turned to avoid it of a sudden but was unable to catch the ground force falling apart. The scarred hand grabbed the monolith and immediately carried a large hack. It seems that in the coming weeks, more and more weapons are being inserted. It looks like he can't stop here anymore. Not yet thinking of The swinging rock that was tied in a bamboo grove came out. Temma leaped once more but fell and fell, the main thing would fall.

"Come here." Temma looked at the owner of the hand that grabbed him. "Shisui?" Not far from the middle of the way to the monastery. Shisui brought him to the point of the cave. Temma threw himself down, looking at Shisui, who walked far away to the table where many glass jars were placed She walked looking for a moment before picking up two bottles back to him.

"Arms out I will heal your wound. "Temma looked at the other side for a while. "But I think I have to go to practice first or else I won't ..."

"Resting is not like giving up. Take a break and allow me to do some wounds for you. And he should go out. "As if she had bent Temma's arms without waiting for the boy's answer Which he did not say anything except let it be that way Shisui rubbed on his wound for a while and then poured out the water in that bottle. The miracle is that the water floats on your palm until you blow. It was very difficult to remove the wound until he disappeared in no time. She let him move her arm before watching the warning.

"This drug only treats your external symptoms. Don't overdo it. Otherwise, your bruises will come back. And this green drug is a drug that can be used to relieve fatigue or regenerative medicine. "That ended, she dripped it out, but slightly blew it to hit his face. It hurts a bit, as though every weariness is multiplied before it is dispersed, while the water droplets disappear into the darkness. And appeared the body of the red devil that passed out Shisui, who saw the question mark in Temma's eyes, answered.

"They are Oni. It is an opportunity to protect the fortnight here from humans who do not wish well here. And this is Shoji, who takes care of it here instead of the princess or Tsunase. If both of them are no longer here, "Shisui said, pulling the two red devils, he wore a strange hat to hug by the creature. Greeted him in response

"Hello, my name is Shoji."

"Hello, my name is Temma ... But what you said is that if both of you are not here, what does it mean? "Shisui has a dull face. "We have lived for a lot longer than you know, Temma. Everything will happen and farewell. Us too three cases will occur.

The first case was that this place was attacked and we were all killed. This place would be under his care. Or two, the power of this mountain has disappeared You may wonder why we chose to stay in this mountain and no matter what we do, we will remain in the area or area of ​​this monastery. "Temma nodded to understand. Because as though he had gone out to gather crops to cook, the princess would not walk further than this mountain.

"In the past, This mountain is a place of great power for a god called Tenzu Tengu. It is said that this monastery was once his residence. And with the conflict between each god and man when he was still here Caused the gods to split up and some shrines had to be closed down Personally, he had three pupils. The first person possessed a magical crystal ball. The second person possesses a black curtain. And the third possessed the name of Tengu It is said that, in the end, the three killed themselves for power and all died. No one knows where all three of the magical items have gone. Tensu Tengu is very disappointed, but he is not discouraged to find someone who will continue to protect the place. Passed many decades Long until no one remembers him He met a beautiful woman. Which is Princess Yoruhime And he met her many times and entrusted everything to her This monastery, this mountain, and the remaining power Where did you leave her? No one knows. And as you can see, we have to protect this place no matter what happens. "

"When and when did you come to be with you?" Shisui kept quiet before returning to normal when he heard the conversation. "No problem, please I will wait for the day that all of you are ready to play for me. I have to practice first. Otherwise, I would probably disappoint her. "In the end, he smiled and shook her limbs before running away.

From days to weeks, from weeks to months Mid-season drawing On an overcast day, the skies were whining. There was a black-haired boy who had run up the stairs skillfully. The eyes flick to the right. He turns around, dodging the throwing star before jumping into the air, dodging the spear pierced. As soon as he reached the ground, his body naturally flipped down before he soared. And shortly thereafter he came to his destination

"It works but your shadow is not complete. If it were me, it wouldn't take more than fifteen minutes. You follow me for about thirty-seven minutes."

The old man looked at the hourglass he had carried. Before walking the boy into the room through the right door into the hall with doors on both sides open for the wind. The smooth wooden floor, end to the front of the statue, another black crow hanging his prayer beads, eyes, ruby ​​crystals staring down, inviting the viewer to feel terrified.

This is the first time he has entered this room. He observes the room so quickly that he recognizes the character and then returns to focus on the old man. Tsunade turned to pick up a wooden sword from the weapons rack in the corner of the room, throw it to Temma. He did not touch the sword but instead came face to face with the boy. "From today, you must practice using katana until you can fall to me Do you understand? "The old man's voice resounded in the sky. Golden Light Aurora start to roar.

"Yes sir!"
