"Bring the knife here, let me take a look!" Tetsumoto Homura instructed.

Mitsuri paused for a moment upon hearing this, then quickly stopped and gently placed the Nichirin Blade on the table.

As the force attached to the Nichirin Blade was removed, the extended blade slowly retracted, gradually returning to its original length of over one meter.

Tetsumoto Homura En raised the unusual Nichirin Blade and examined it quietly.

He would occasionally squeeze the blade slightly, as if testing its resilience.

Kotetsu propped his head up with one hand and looked at Tetsumoto Homura's serious expression, asking:

"Uncle Yan, have you ever forged this kind of Nichirin Blade before?"

Kotetsu's words brought Tetsumoto Homura back to his senses. After glancing at him, he replied:

"I've used soft blades before, but I've only tried using this kind of extendable blade in my own workshop. I haven't used it for my team yet!"

Mitsuri panicked upon hearing this.

"Huh? Is that alright?"

Tetsumoto Homura glanced at Mitsuri and replied:

"No problem, just determine the maximum length. I'll calculate the required metal proportions during the forging process!"

"That's good! That's good!" Mitsuri patted her chest.

After returning the Nichirin Blade to Mitsuri, Tetsumoto Homura sat down again and asked:

"How long do you want your Nichirin Blade to be?"

"It should just be the same length as before!" Mitsuri replied.

How long was it originally?

Mitsuri spread her arms out, then turned her head left and right to check the length.

"It's probably a little longer than this!"

"..."

The room was silent as the three people watched Mitsuri quietly.

Seeing the others staring at her like that, Mitsuri's cheeks gradually flushed, and she unconsciously lowered her outstretched hands, shrinking her head back.

Seeing this, Teiichi said helplessly:

"Extend the Nichirin Blade to its maximum length with force, then we'll measure it!"

Upon hearing this, Mitsuri immediately looked up, her eyes shining as she Teiichi, and nodded vigorously.

"Um!"

The Nichirin Blade was drawn again, and with Mitsuri's renewed swing, the blade continued to extend, quickly reaching its maximum length.

Then Mitsuri stood there, continuing to swing her Nichirin Blade, her watery eyes fixed on Teiichi.

"..."

"Put your Nichirin Blade on the ground and straighten it!" Teiichi.

Upon hearing this, Mitsuri immediately nodded, glanced around the room, and then quickly went to a relatively open space.

With a forward swing of his arm, the originally crooked Nichirin Blade quickly straightened.

Mitsuri then quickly placed the Nichirin Blade on the ground.

"Hurry up, or the Nichirin Blade will shrink back again, and the measurement won't be accurate!" Kotetsu shouted.

Upon hearing this, Mitsuri turned her head, about to nod in agreement, when she saw Teiichi lift his finger from the water glass and wave it in this direction.

The next instant, two drops of water flew out rapidly, one landing on the ground where the hilt meets the blade, and the other landing on the ground at the tip of the blade.

"Is that even possible?" Mitsuri opened her mouth.

"Hurry up, or the water will dry up!" Teiichi reminded him.

Upon hearing this, Tetsumoto Homura quickly stood up, handed one side of the measuring tape to Kotetsu, and then the two walked towards where Mitsuri was squatting.

Seeing this, Mitsuri quickly sheathed her sword and stood up to avoid interfering with their work.

The measured data came out quickly.

"Two meters sixty-seven!"

Tetsumoto Homura muttered something to himself, then quickly returned to his desk and began taking notes.

Then they proceeded to measure and Teiichi a series of data, including the length of the palm, fingers, and arm, which had been measured previously.

Finally, when measuring the bust size, Tetsumoto Homura paused, glanced at Mitsuri's chest, and then frowned.

"Additional items only bring negative effects during battle!"

Upon hearing this, Mitsuri seemed unable to accept it. She clutched her chest with one hand, took a step back, and stared at Tetsumoto Homura in disbelief.

Teiichi, who was drinking water, almost choked when he heard this.

Although what you said is correct, but...

Only Kotetsu looked left and right with a bewildered expression.

They didn't measure Mitsuri's bust size.

Tetsumoto Homura walked straight back to the table and threw the measuring tape at Teiichi.

Teiichi looked up, slightly taken aback.

"Ah?"

Go and measure her!

Me?

"Or else?"

"Alright! "Teiichi suppressed his smile and walked over.

Seeing Teiichi approach with a measuring tape, Mitsuri's cheeks immediately flushed red, and she shyly lowered her head.

"..."

No, it was normal before, but what you did made it very abnormal!

Teiichi inwardly complained, but outwardly remained calm and completed the measurement step by step.

After reporting the data, Tetsumoto Homura En had Mitsuri wield her Nichirin Blade a little.

Fortunately, this workshop is quite large, otherwise we really would have had to find another place.

After leaving the workshop filled with the smell of smoke and steel, Teiichi walked familiarly toward Kotetsu's workshop.

After walking for a while, Teiichi suddenly stopped and turned slightly to look at Mitsuri following behind him.

The two stared at each other silently for a moment. Seeing that Mitsuri didn't intend to speak, Teiichi frowned slightly and asked with a hint of doubt in his voice:

Why are you following me?

"Huh?" Mitsuri tilted her head, not reacting for a moment.

"I'm asking you why you're following me?" Teiichi repeated.

Upon hearing this, Mitsuri blinked her large eyes, looked around, but the surrounding scenery didn't seem to offer her an answer. Finally, she turned her gaze to Teiichi and said hesitantly:

"Where should I go?"

"..."

Teiichi was momentarily speechless, unsure how to answer this seemingly simple yet somewhat tricky question.

Teiichi thought for a moment and asked:

What do you do when you're not on a mission?

"Wow, that's a lot!"

Mitsuri's eyes lit up immediately, as if she had started talking non-stop.

"I research food, play card games, look after pets, and train them myself!" she said, a bright smile spreading across her face.

"Hmm..." Teiichi stroked his chin and thought for a moment, "Food isn't very convenient, and finding someone to help you might be difficult. Your pet isn't here either. Well, you can go train there! It's just that the Swordsmith Village might not be as convenient as your family's dojo, but finding any open space to train shouldn't be a problem!"

After listening to Teiichi's words, Mitsuri thought about it carefully for a moment, and then nodded.

However, she didn't leave immediately; her beautiful eyes continued to gaze at Teiichi she asked:

"What is Mr. Kato going to do?"

"I'll go get a puppet, then I'll go train!"

"A doll?" Mitsuri looked at Teiichi curiously.
