Chapter 70: 12 The Request of the Busujima Saeko
Holding the wooden sword in his hand, he swung it for a while, and it still felt familiar. Although he hadn't practiced for a few days, he didn't feel like he had regressed at all. Of course, it was only a few days since he hadn't practiced, so it wasn't that easy to regress. The most important thing was that there was a system.
Because the system's numbers were fixed, Hasegawa's kendo level was also fixed at this number. Even if Hasegawa hadn't practiced kendo for a year, as long as the numbers on the system didn't decrease, his kendo level wouldn't regress.
As usual, he didn't wear the kind of heavy protective gear for kendo, and just started practicing with a wooden sword.
Familiar feel, familiar weight, because of the improvement of kendo skills, Hasegawa's kendo strength also improved, and just swinging the wooden sword in his hand brought faint gusts of wind.
"Hasegawa, junior?"
Hasegawa, who was practicing, suddenly heard someone calling him. He was stunned for a moment, turned around, and found that the Captain of the Kendo Club, Busujima Saeko, who had long purple hair tied into a ponytail and a well-proportioned tall figure, was standing there, giving people a ladylike feeling, looking at Hasegawa with a smile.
"Captain? What can I do for you?" Hasegawa looked at Busujima Saeko with a little confusion. Hasegawa, who had joined the Kendo Club for a while, had never had any contact with Busujima Saeko. They had not even had the simplest conversation before.
Busujima Saeko was very popular in the Kendo Club. I don't know how many people in the Kendo Club were her secret admirers.
After all, Busujima Saeko was not only beautiful, but also had a personality that looked like Yamato Nadeshiko. In addition to her own superb Kendo level, it would be strange if she was not popular with boys in the Kendo Club.
However, although Busujima Saeko was very beautiful and had a good temperament, especially her breasts that were like a nuclear bomb on earth. However, Hasegawa had no idea about Busujima, so naturally, he had no intention of contacting Busujima.
"Hasegawa, you seem to practice alone and have never fought against anyone." With a seemingly gentle smile on his face, Busujima took two steps towards Hasegawa and approached him.
"Well, I just like to practice kendo by myself. As for fighting against others, I have no interest in it. In fact, the reason I joined the kendo club is that I think the place here is bigger and it is a better place to practice." Hasegawa explained with a faint smile.
"Oh? Is that so? However, although kendo is good for physical fitness, it is also slowly transformed from the art of killing. So sparring is still necessary. Only in this way can we make progress and become more powerful in kendo." Busujima said.
"I understand. Thank you for the relationship, but actually, I just treat it as a hobby, just practicing casually. I never thought about how good it would be." Hasegawa still looked the same, smiling and shaking his head.
"Does Hasegawa think so? However, Hasegawa's kendo level is not just as you said." Busujima said, narrowing his eyes slightly, looking at Hasegawa with a little more interest in his eyes.
"Maybe, I have a good talent in this area."
"Indeed, Hasegawa's talent is really amazing." Busujima nodded and agreed with Hasegawa's words. After Hasegawa appeared in the kendo club, Busujima, who received the news, had already rushed over, and then stood aside and watched Hasegawa practice kendo quietly.
Although Hasegawa's kendo seems to be very ordinary, without any particularly powerful style moves or the like, perhaps Hasegawa's kendo may not seem that powerful in the eyes of outsiders. But in the eyes of an expert like Busujima, she could see Hasegawa's very solid foundation, a solid foundation that ordinary people could never have.
So although they hadn't fought yet, Busujima was sure that Hasegawa's kendo level was already very good.
"How about a sparring?" Busujima suddenly said to Hasegawa.
"Huh? Sparring? Captain, you want to spar with me?" Hasegawa was stunned and a little surprised.
"That's right, Hasegawa's kendo level is very good. Hasegawa, you are not interested in sparring with other members of the kendo club because their kendo levels are too far behind yours. In that case, I will spar with Hasegawa. I am still very confident in my kendo level." Busujima said, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
"Uh, Captain, you seem to have misunderstood?"
"Misunderstanding? Words can deceive people, but solid kendo can't deceive people at all. If you practice alone, your kendo level can't reach the level of Hasegawa. Only through continuous practice, sparring and fighting can your kendo level be improved step by step. Hasegawa, come on, don't worry, you can now show your kendo completely without hiding it." Busujima's voice became more and more excited. Even the face that originally looked dignified and virtuous, like Yamato Nadeshiko, became a little weird because of excitement at this time.
"Captain——"
"Hasegawa, don't you want to have a good competition with the kendo you have been practicing? Practicing kendo must be very hard. Perhaps, you have been trained in this area since childhood, swinging the sword again and again, gritting your teeth and not giving up even if your arms are sore."
"Not at all." Hasegawa said in his heart.
"You have practiced so hard, don't you really want to show it off?"
Hasegawa felt that if it was someone else, someone who had no system and could only practice hard, he would definitely be excited when he heard what Busujima said. However, it seemed that he had no feelings at all when he heard such words.
"Besides, I can also understand Hasegawa's feelings. He has been practicing kendo and his level has improved greatly. But he can't find an opponent who is equally matched with him. In the end, he can only practice alone. This must be very lonely." Busujima said to Hasegawa in an empathetic tone.
"No, not at all." Hasegawa said silently in his heart again.
"So, Hasegawa, come on, have a good fight and show off the kendo you have practiced." Busujima's eyes flashed with light, staring at Hasegawa closely.
"This——" Hasegawa scratched his head. Hasegawa had some understanding of what Busujima said. Busujima must be lonely as a master. However, he did not feel the same way when it happened to him.
