[Hakuouki Doujin] The Tide of Fallen Leaves

The next morning, Nueno still got up early to take care of everything in the small backyard. After preparing the dojo's breakfast, he walked into Mibu-ji Temple with two knives on his waist and a refreshing smile.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the visitor who was looking for Serizawa duck arrived this time, the person didn't give any notice, so he let Nueno go in. Nueno thanked him and walked to the place yesterday, but he didn't find that The figure who left immediately after Nueno entered.

Kondo, who had known about this from Hijikata for a long time, sat with Shannan, heard the person's announcement, glanced at the silent Hijikata, and said, "Here, Hijikata, if he really does You said that he is a samurai with superb swordsmanship, then..."

"It seems that we can't just let it go..." Shannan raised the corner of his mouth.

"Let me go and have a look!" Tufang said, frowning.

"No, let's go together!" Kondo patted his thigh, "If there are newcomers to join, if the director is not here... I'm afraid it's not too formal!"

As soon as Nue was introduced into Serizawa's room, he saw that the wooden door of the Japanese room was wide open. Looking through the opened door, he could see the view of a small pond in the courtyard. Simple rockery landscaping with a pool of green water , Nue Ye sat upright, couldn't help looking at the small pond and sighed: "Ah...it's a pity that it's not summer yet, otherwise it will be beautiful when the lotus blooms!"

"Yeah..." Serizawa responded, also sitting on the front seat.Nue Ye noticed that his gaze became very soft for a short while. "I didn't expect you to come today."

"I always do what I say." Narrowing his eyes, Nueno said with a smile.

Serizawa looked at the men who brought the hot tea, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just that when you went out yesterday, you were caught by those juniors, right? I didn't know you had met them before. I'm more curious , Didn’t they ask you to join them?”

"Yes, yes..." Nueno narrowed his eyes, his expression lightened, "It's just that I rejected them."

"Oh?" Grabbing the teacup in one gulp, Serizawa looked up at Nueno while drinking it.

"Because, I won't join the Mibu Roshi Team just because of the 'Mibu Roshi Team. Serizawa-sama works", that is to say, I am only willing to act for your orders, Serizawa-sama, and I will not join the Mibu Roshi group, let alone—act for Mibu Roshizu!"

"To be blunt, Serizawa-sama, I'm only interested in you."

He glanced at Nueno in surprise, and after a long while, Serizawa laughed loudly: "Hahaha──wahaha────!! You are such an interesting person!! Wahaha────」

With downcast eyes, the corners of Nue Ye's mouth raised a few arcs.

When Kondo and his group walked to the door, they knocked on the door in embarrassment when they encountered loud laughter from inside. After Serizawa said "Come in" with a smile, several people opened the door and just saw Serizawa kept laughing, and Nueno looked at them innocently.

Twitching the corner of his mouth, Kondo had no choice but to say, "What makes you so happy! Serizawa! And this one is──?"

"Wahhaha──Kondo! You came just in time!!" Serizawa wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and patted his thigh, "This guy, this guy just said something super funny!!"

"Serizawa-sama, I wasn't joking just now." Nueno interjected and said seriously, "Even if you want me to swear loyalty in front of them, it's fine."

"Oh──?" Serizawa leaned forward, leaning on his knees with a curious look on his face, "Here?"

"certainly."

When he said this, Nueno didn't even look at Hijikata, whose face was getting worse and worse, and other Todo and others who rushed over when they heard the wind.

"Then──" pulled out the folding fan, and pointed at Nueno with a "swish", "It happens that the two directors are here, show your loyalty!!"

Unafraid to put away the arc, Nue Ye immediately bent the other foot, taking a half-squatting kneeling position, untied one of the knives hanging from his waist with his left hand, and slowly raised his head with both hands, with an extremely serious expression, his hands Holding the sword flat, he said to Serizawa in a low voice, "──I, Nuenoba, swear to you with this samurai sword that I will dedicate my loyalty to you as long as you live. No matter what order it is, as long as it is your order, I will - the mission will be accomplished!!"

The pupils of his eyes widened slightly, as if he didn't expect the other party to show his allegiance so directly. Serizawa's fan was placed in midair for a while, and then slowly closed.

He stood up, and said to Nue with the same serious attitude: "In that case, I accept your loyalty, wash your neck and wait!"

"...Yes, my lord, please don't forget, what is my order..." With his head lowered, Nueno's expressionless face spoke slowly.

"I won't forget." Seriously answered Nueno, Serizawa glanced at the crowd and took a step forward, "Since everyone has seen it... I just announce it! This guy will be my confidant from now on! Just listen to me If you have any questions about him, come to me directly!!"

"If someone wants to limit him with any group norms... In addition to asking me first, he must first consider the suitability, because this guy──has never been a member of the Mibu Roshi group!!"

That night, Nueno was carrying a meal for Serizawa, and happened to pass by Hirasuke and the others, but neither of them stopped to say hello.

Intertwining and leaving like strangers, the other party is not a member of this group anyway, and he is following the person he hates the most... That's right!In this case, there is no need to ignore him! !

Fujido Heisuke comforted himself in this way in his heart, unexpectedly, the hands clenched by his side were already seen by Harada and the others. Although he was wondering when Heisuke was so good with that Nueno, Harada and the others had a tacit understanding Did not ask any questions.

"Ahhh──" Unable to bear the dull atmosphere spreading to the dining table, Yongkura put down his chopsticks first, "It's just that Serizawa has a confidant who is skilled in swordsmanship! Is it necessary to make the atmosphere so serious !!"

Hearing what he said, everyone who had lowered their heads to eat slowly raised their heads to look at him. Yongcura pointed at Fujido and shouted, "Hey! It's you! Why are you so depressed!!"

"Ah?" Hirasuke was puzzled, and then shouted, "How can I have it!!"

"Obviously there is!!" Yongcang Shinpachi roared loudly, "Don't think—"

"Shinpachi!!" Harada interrupted Yongcura.

"Zuozhi, don't stop me!" Turning to Harada, Shinpachi was about to start talking, but was interrupted by another person. "Obviously you have been---"

"Yongcang!" Hijikata stopped, frowning. "Eat quietly!"

The author has something to say:

I made up for the day before. Sorry, I am so busy that I am free now.

I have been busy with some miscellaneous things in the next few days, and I have nothing to save. Although I will definitely make up in the future, please forgive me for the time being!

This week has started to be busy again...

In other words, Hirasuke's negative sign is relatively high, which can be simplified into two sentences. The normal one is "the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment", and the abnormal one is "the deeper the love, the deeper the hatred"! XDDDDDD

As for the others, it was pure disapproval of the man's behavior.

After all, I haven't written other people's strategy plots yet! (spread hands)

After that, I should attack Ryunosuke first, right? -v-
