Having never seen Fu Hua use a sword, Minamoto Hikari felt that Fu Hua was boasting a little too much. She had studied swordsmanship since childhood, and a year ago, she had even surpassed her Master and defeated the woman who had taught her.
She was still very confident in her swordsmanship.
But when she heard Fu Hua's condition... that she could agree to any one request, her eyes immediately lit up.
"Do you mean that?"
Minamoto Hikari, who had thought the delicious food was out of reach, felt hope once again.
"Of course."
"Then, Father, please find me an ordinary sword..."
Hearing Fu Hua's certain tone, Minamoto Hikari immediately regained her motivation. But when she looked at the famed blade in her hand, she decided it would be better not to use it in a situation like this and to switch to an ordinary weapon instead.
"There's no need for that trouble. Use that blade! A sword is a samurai's second life, after all. A katana you have used for years... will let you bring out your true strength. An unfamiliar weapon takes time to get used to, and that would not be your full strength. If you lost, you would not be satisfied either, would you?"
Seeing Minamoto Hikari prepare to change weapons, Fu Hua immediately stopped her. If she could not defeat Minamoto Hikari while she was going all out, Minamoto Hikari definitely would not accept the result. So why change weapons?
"This... it is a famous sword that can easily cut down monsters. It can even slice through steel! It kills with a single touch of blood... It is extremely dangerous."
Worried that Fu Hua did not understand how dangerous the weapon in her hand was, Minamoto Hikari had no choice but to explain it carefully.
