After breakfast, we went to the only doctor in town to find out why the body was small.

“Long time no see. Uncle.”

“Yeah. It’s been a while. Yukika.”

Basically, in Kazama, the hometown of Fuuma-senpai, everyone seems to be related by blood.

Thanks to that, wherever I went, I recognized Fuuma-senpai’s face, and my position became quite difficult.

Because everyone I met asked me if I was the bridegroom from Tokyo.

At first, he explained the misunderstanding, but at some point he just gave up.

This is because, regardless of the authenticity, he realized that he was asking if he was the groom in order to make fun of Fuuma-senpai.

I was closely examined by a person called Fuuma-senpai’s uncle.

At first, I thought he was just a doctor, but it seems that he is actually from an elite medical school who graduated from a medical school with excellent grades in Tokyo.

A doctor’s license proudly affixed to the back of a hospital desk proves that.

After all the examination was over, Fuuma-senpai’s uncle said:

“It’s surprisingly normal.”

“Yes?”

If it’s normal, it’s normal, why is it called “surprising”?

When I looked at him with a look that I couldn’t understand, Fuuma-senpai’s uncle sighed, “How should I explain this…”

“I’ve been a doctor for 20 years, but I’ve never seen a healthy person like you. All physical abilities far exceeded the average of ordinary people.

“Ah, that’s what I meant.”

what else do i say

Fuuma-senpai, who was listening to the story next to me, helped by saying, “You shouldn’t judge him with common sense.”

“First of all, from a medical point of view, there is nothing wrong with your body right now. But when you substitute the concept of qi, the balance in your body is temporarily broken.”

“Is it because the yang is exhausted?”

“That’s right. Ghost Hwan, one of our clan’s secret medicines, does not use the original energy of the person who ate it, but enters a state of depletion temporarily when the effective period expires. The depleted energy returns within a few days if well nourished. But, I think the reason for the side effects like this one is probably because of the soul possessed in your body.”

I remembered Saya waiting outside the door.

“Is it because he has a strong energy?”

“The body naturally follows the soul. There are currently two souls in your body, one of which has temporarily prevailed, so it seems that the form of the body is following the dominant one.”

“Then, when my yang is restored, does my body return to its original state?”

“It’s just a guess, but I think it’s probably going to be the case.”

Young-Young I wanted to do something if it was fixed in this shape, but fortunately, it seems that there is no way at all.

“Thank you. It was a great help.”

“If that’s the case, I’m glad. If it doesn’t come back to the way it was after time passes, please come back to me.”

“yes.”

I thanked Fuuma-senpai’s uncle once again and left the hospital.

“What are you going to do now?”

“It’s a waste of time, so I’d like to try some training for now.”

Although the body is in a state of shrinkage, it does not mean that he cannot move at all.

I memorized the contents of the book all day yesterday, so I thought it would be possible if I could move my body by myself and get a sense of it.

“If that’s the case, there is a good place. Follow me.”

Saying that, Fuuma-senpai took the lead and started walking.

I still felt like I was being taken care of, but now that I am in the customer’s position, I have decided to follow Fuuma-senpai.

***

The place where Fuuma-senpai took me was the empty lot in the mansion I saw the other day.

It was the place where villagers used to gather and compete.

Perhaps today, the match had already ended, and only a few young children were hitting each other in the vacant lot and fighting.

As we stepped into the vacant lot, one of the kids in the crowd exclaimed with a happy face.

“sister!”

Then, the eyes rushed in.

Half of them were directed at me, not Fuuma-senpai.

It’s probably because it’s the first face you see in town.

As I was drenched in my heart, the first girl who approached me asked.

“Sister, who is he?”

Then, Fuuma-senpai responded kindly while meeting eye level.

“It’s not him, it’s the village guest. It’s the older brother I saw yesterday.”

“Ahhh?!”

The kids look at me again with a surprised expression.

It felt like an unexpected surprise.

“He’s gotten so small?!”

“lie!”

To be honest, I couldn’t believe it even if I changed my position.

It’s not like a cartoon that people grow younger overnight.

“Anyway, we have work to do, so let’s talk about it later.”

Saying that, Huma-senpai, who forcibly dispersed the children gathered around him, looked at me and asked.

“I’m sorry. Kim Yu-seong. It’s not because the kids are malicious.”

“It’s okay.”

Following Fuuma-senpai’s guidance, I took a seat in the corner of the vacant lot.

“I’ll watch you practice. If there’s anything you don’t know, feel free to ask.”

“Thank you if you do.”

While Fuuma-senpai was watching, I began to reproduce the movements I read in the book yesterday one by one.

Basically, hayate was a martial art that used the capital (手刀).

And, one of the most basic of the basic skills, Type 1 Kamitachi was a technique for cutting things with bare hands.

To be honest, it was difficult from the beginning.

It’s absurd to cut things with your bare hands, isn’t it?

I was curious about the background of this technology.

So when I asked Fuuma-senpai, the answer he got back from Fuuma-senpai was a spectacle.

“Originally, it was a technique made in case the sword broke on the battlefield. The ancestors of the Huma clan wished that there would be little difference in fighting power when the blade was raised and when it was not. And if you can use your bare hands like a sword, you can hide memorization. It was as if there was no need for it, so as the generations passed, the blade of Kamitachi became sharper.”

“okay.”

Am I listening correctly now?

To be honest, I don’t even know how to explain it.

However, without showing it, he silently started practicing on his own.

***

Naturally, the training on the first day ended without any income.

It was because it was much more difficult than expected to make the gi wrapped around the hand like a blade.

There were a lot of difficult words written in the book, but as a result, it seemed to depend on my senses to acquire technical know-how.

Anyway, my whole body was sweaty from swinging my arms all day, so as soon as I got home, I grabbed a change of clothes and headed to the bathroom.

Originally, the people who did chores in this mansion would have guided me, but I memorized the road yesterday, so I went to find it on my own.

I asked Saya to stay calm in her room as she would come after taking a bath, so there was no one to disturb her.

After taking off your clothes in the changing room, you enter the open-air bath with a towel on your head.

It is said to be a bath made by drawing hot springs gushing from the nearby area, but the open ceiling gave it a unique sense of openness.

I first washed my body lightly before soaking in the bath.

It was said that it was a bath shared by all the villagers, so I had no choice but to pay attention to hygiene.

After a light sweat, I finally take a bath.

The muscles that had been tense after exercising all day felt like they were loosening up when they met the hot water.

“Ha-“

It was also nice to take a bath after exercising.

The water that would normally only come up to the waist, but because of the small body, was now able to soak up to the shoulders.

I put a nicely folded towel over my head and dipped a little deeper.

As the hot heat circulates throughout the body, it feels like blood circulation is better than usual.

That was when I was enjoying the hot spring bath in full swing.

Druck!

“Huh? Were there any passengers?”

I turned my head when I heard the familiar voice and was startled.

It was because Fuuma-senpai, who barely covered his voluptuous body with a towel, was standing at the entrance to the bath.

“Kim Yoosung?!”

Fuuma-senpai took a few steps back in surprise.

“Now is the time for the village women to use the bath, how about here?”

Was it like that!

“Sorry, I’m sorry. Senior, I’ll leave right away.”

If I had known it would be like this, I would have come and asked like yesterday.

I hurriedly tried to get up, but after realizing that I was naked, I asked Fuuma-senpai.

“Can you turn around for a moment?”

“Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t notice.”

Fuuma-senpai said that and tried to turn his back, but then a new voice was heard from the changing room.

“Yukika? Why aren’t you going in?”

… Didn’t you come alone?

I realized that the situation was getting worse and worse.

I hurriedly looked around and found a large rock in a corner of the hot spring.

with a splash! with a splash!

While Fuuma-senpai was pulling time in front of the door, I hurriedly ran and hid behind a rock.

immediately after,

“Ah~ good~”

A group of village women, including Fuuma-senpai, entered the bathhouse.
