Chapter 195
AN: Yaegashi-style……how did it come to be? It was just before the sun approached the zenith of its climb. Hajime was walking expressionlessly through the residential area on a certain riverside.
It wasn’t like he was in a bad mood, but when he thought about the location he would be visiting after this, it made him feel somewhat melancholic. On top of all that, it also caused him to rack his brain about this and that when it came to how to deal with it, so his expression was naturally stiff.
Although, no matter how much Hajime worried about it since he had no intention of yielding the status quo or his will, resolving this was extremely difficult and finding a solution that could work in one go was next to impossible. Compared to this difficult problem, conquering a great labyrinth was something really simple.
「Well, that’s obvious, it can’t be helped, huh?」
He let out a small sigh while staring at his destination that came into view on the path ahead.
It was a spacious ground that was surrounded by splendid hedges with a large Japanese house inside of it, or rather than a house it was an estate. History could be felt from its appearance alone.
With a glance at that hedge and estate, Hajime finally arrived in front of the entrance. The front gate was also a heavy and splendid structure. The wood and iron were clearly conveying the months and years they had been piling up until now. If an ordinary person visited this place for the first time, they would unconsciously straighten themselves up.
The family name written beside the front gate was――”Yaegashi”.
Yes, this place was Shizuku’s house, and adjacent to the house was the long-established dojo of the Yaegashi-style.
