"I only invited you to shoot arrows with me..."
The little fox continued to talk, "But, it doesn't say that I have to hit the target! However, if it's MASA-san, you must hit the target, after all, you have learned Kyudo for so many years?" He smiled with his teeth showing, and with his white hair, he looked even more like a fox.
Takigawa Masaki laughed. He didn't expect that he almost fell into this kid's trap. What he meant was that he could say whatever he wanted, but it would only count as an arrow if he hit the target, right? "Well... okay!"
Since this kid is so excited on the first day, there's no harm in agreeing!
In addition, from the very beginning, Masaki had noticed that the way Nioh addressed him had changed. The initially unfamiliar Takigawa-sensei had become the current 'MASA-san'. Was he finally willing to treat him as an older brother?
It must be said that the arrow of the King really hit his heart, making him want to agree to his conditions.
Although this condition is very abnormal for him!
After all, this little opponent's innate advantages are too great!
but……
Seeing Niou Masaharu still smiling, Takigawa became alert and asked, "Are you harboring any evil thoughts, little guy?"
Although being called "MASA-san" made him a little happy, his brain was not completely happy. It was still working as if it was stuck in a paste. There were some questions that needed to be asked in advance, so as not to be caught off guard tomorrow...
Niou smiled shyly, "No... I was just thinking that it would be great if we could compete to see who can shoot 100 arrows faster tomorrow!"
Takigawa Masaki almost spat out a mouthful of blood, wanting to spit it on the face of the white-haired fox in front of him, "..." This is not what you call "no", then what do you call "yes"? How terrifying you must be if you have one!
Niou Masaharu's brain really lives up to his white hair, he's really a little fox!
However, if I want to trick him...
This little fox should just practice. Takigawa Masaki felt that he had to add additional conditions, "Of course you can, but you have to make sure that every arrow you shoot is well prepared..."
Only if each arrow is shot with enough patience and concentration can he make rapid progress in a short period of time. Otherwise, these ten thousand in three months will be meaningless!
Niou Masaharu was surprised, "MASA-san, how could you think of me like this? This is what I had planned!"
Takigawa Masaki chuckled, "Oh, I really was overthinking that!"
Takigawa Masaki certainly knew that with Niou's personality, he would never shoot so casually. He was not the kind of person who would treat training perfunctorily, but...
Even if he didn't say it perfunctorily, if he didn't name it now, Niou Masaharu would definitely use this matter to torment him before tomorrow's game...
Rather than being tortured to the point of tears later, it is better to counterattack and block this hole now!
Nioh is...very, speechless!
Thinking of MASA-san, he was much smarter than he had imagined. After only ten days of contact, he had such a deep understanding of him!
It really is...
Niou Masaharu raised the corners of his lips and smiled innocently, very brightly and naturally. It’s okay, the prank didn’t succeed now, I must try harder next time!
Perhaps because he is becoming more and more like a fox, Niou is becoming more and more fond of playing pranks...
In particular, Takigawa Masaki himself is a very light-hearted person, not as serious as he imagined a middle school archer to be, so he was given a lot of room to play with this character...
Takigawa Masaki: ...Are you blaming me for being too kind to you?
Niou Masaharu: ...Hehe, I didn't say anything, this is just something you made up in your mind, MASA-san~ Haha~
…
Since he started to use the bow, Niou's talent in archery has really begun to show. From not being able to hit the target at the beginning to slowly hitting the bull's eye with every arrow, it only took two weeks...
And Niou Masaharu has been in this world for three weeks...
Originally, Takigawa Masataka was worried that excessive talent would make Niou Masaharu proud and complacent. After all, this is the characteristic of young people. It is not certain that he could remain stable during basic training. After seeing how talented he is, he can still remain stable!
Takigawa Masaki's original plan was to temper Niou's temper first, so recently, he has been emphasizing Niou's shooting style and the time before shooting...
"Hold on, don't let go, keep your hands flat, steady..." Ren Wang must be able to calm down completely before he is allowed to release the arrow, lest he let his pride lead him to his old habit of 'releasing the arrow too early', which would be counterproductive...
Niou himself also discovered that Takigawa Masaki seemed to be deliberately trying to temper him recently, but unlike what Takigawa Masaki imagined, Niou was very patient. No matter what he said before, he was still the kind of person who dared to fight with a fox demon who was a messenger of God!
In the experience of being unable to defeat Tomoe again and again, Nioh always relied on forbearance and gave Tomoe a thundering blow when he was caught off guard. Although each attack was eventually blocked by Tomoe's superior strength and experience, but...
The fox's patience was also recognized by Bawei.
Now, it's time to get Takigawa Masataka's recognition!
Puff~
However, what Ren Wang did not expect was that before Takigawa Masaki, he had been recognized by another person, that is, the old lady Xiyuan Temple whom he had always thought of...
On this day, Saionji came to Yata no Mori Archery Dojo for a rare visit to see his old friend, Master Takigawa, the grandfather of Masataka Takigawa!
Naturally, what everyone is most interested in when it comes to archery is the Yata no Mori archery field in Saionji Temple. This is the place she is most familiar with and the place she wants to see the most!
I thought it would be as peaceful and quiet as yesterday, but when I came here today, I found that there was a young boy here...
The white-haired boy at night, his white hair illuminated by the moonlight, his whole body seemed to be covered by the moonlight, shining with a hint of white, and under the moonlight, he seemed like the Son of God or an elf descending to the earth. This boy was different. His silver-white hair did not make him look illusory or ethereal. He had a real temperament. Even under the moonlight, it did not cover up the wildness in his eyes, just like a fox running in from the forest outside, smart and patient...
"Ah..." At the beginning, Saionji was shocked by the boy's appearance, and now he was shocked by the boy's concentration and beautiful shooting style at this moment.
