"Hm? If you're not satisfied, we can have another round!" Raiden Ei said with a chuckle.
Phew...
Watching the two finally stop, Li Qiuzhi had just been about to breathe a small sigh of relief.
He had not expected Ei to say something like that again.
Seeing the Shogun's eager expression, Li Qiuzhi hurried over and cut in before she could agree:
"It's already nighttime outside. How about sparring again next time?
"Ei, you haven't taught us swordsmanship yet.
"And Shogun, you've been here all day. Don't you need to go back and handle official business? Getting addicted to 'games' is an act of negligence!"
The Raiden Shogun gave Li Qiuzhi an unfriendly look.
She folded her hands beneath her soft breasts, which were wrapped in a pale purple kimono with some of her snow-white skin exposed, and said:
"Are you calling my sparring with my 'inner self' a game? In that case, you must be far stronger than we are.
"Then how about you serve as my opponent?"
"..."
No, don't get the wrong idea! That wasn't what I meant at all. Why does everyone want to bully me? Li Qiuzhi grumbled inwardly. Just as he was about to explain,
his attention was suddenly drawn to Musou Isshin in Raiden Ei's hand. He was not the only one; everyone else present was drawn to it too.
"Huh? Musou Isshin is glowing?"
Floating beside Lumine, Paimon widened her starry eyes curiously.
"This is..."
Raiden Ei lowered her head to look, feeling somewhat puzzled as well.
Ever since receiving this blade from her older sister, she had never encountered anything like this.
Oh, something's finally happening!
Li Qiuzhi naturally understood what was happening. This was a sign that Raiden Makoto's consciousness was about to emerge!
