The guy who was called "Goro" by Yidao is named "Ryugoro".

Identity, as Bai Yidao said before, is his adopted son. If it is, it is the descendant of a certain ninja group. That clan failed to fight with other ninja groups and was exterminated. One of them was a friend of Bai Yidao. Before his death, he entrusted his descendants to Bai Yidao. His current occupation is [Ocean Hunter] - a regular beast cleaning work specifically for the Navigation Association routes.

"If you want to call me, just call me the next surname."

He introduced himself and hoped that the other party would call him [Dragon] instead of [Goro] - because he felt that his last name was more handsome than his name.

"Well... I claim to be [below], it's such an ancient title."

Nian said.

While she was waiting in front of the house, she met the comeback, and after briefly explaining the reason, she was invited in.

"Oh~ Do you say you are calling yourself?" He smiled, touched the back of his head, and said, "I hope to leave a deep mark in your impression. Using the title [below] will not make your character setting unusual all of a sudden. Everyone will remember the name below clearly?"

"Ha...As a ninja, do you actually want others to remember yourself?"

Yi Chen’s complaints.

"What are you talking about, you guy! Don't mix your work and your private life!"

"Don't yell at my guests."

“…Woo!”

A knock on the head.

Ryugoro immediately sat down obediently.

"So--"

Yi Chen said, opening up his purpose for coming here today. But faster than him, Bai Yidao stretched out a hand and made a stop gesture:

“—I know what you want to say.”

Stopped it, Yi Chen's impatient mood that immediately reached the target.

"Before all that, can you let me see your knife first?"

"knife?"

"What I said before is that your samurai sword is damaged, so can you show me? Maybe, as a knife maker, I can do something for you as a gift I helped before. I won't charge you - of course, if you want to learn my genre, one of the conditions, I have to see if you are the right guy to my genre? For a knife maker, a knife can reflect a lot of details about the owner."

He said so much in one breath.

And, Ryugoro who screamed in surprise:

"Hey! Hey hey! Big, what are you talking about?? Do you want to accept this guy as a disciple?!"

He pointed at Yi Chen rudely with his hands.

The latter recalled a little about the ancient etiquette that he had read in the novel before, so he bowed to Bai Yidao and Ryugoro:

"Please don't underestimate me, I want to learn."

"Hey! You guy, you should use [I] to fight [below]!?"

"Goro."

Bang!

“Woo…!”

Once again, Ryugoro was scolded by a knife.

...

...

"Since that's the case, please."

Yi Chen said, recovering some of the armored armour, and then slowly pulled out the samurai sword wrapped in the armored sheath from the back.

"That's the weapon I've been using before."

He handed it to Bai Yidao.

"Wow..."

With both hands, he carefully held up Yi Chen's weapon.

"What a good craft, what's the name of the knife?"

"The Lion King? Not confused."

Bai Yidao slowly wandered on the blade with his hands. It seemed like some mysterious skill. He used his flesh palm to pass through the blade, but it was not cut.

"The straight blade big sword, the flame knife pattern, the material is... the sharp teeth of the Yasha Flame Lion, right."

“That’s right.”

"Oh, it's really a design that is not dragging on the ground, but it seems to combine some modern technology craftsmanship? It seems that the knife maker who forged this knife should advocate the innovative style of combining ancient technology and modern technology, right?"

“…innovative?”

Yi Chen and Nian both asked questions at the same time, but they didn't understand these.

Bai Yidao explained: "That is the classification of ourselves in private among our swordsmen. Those who advocate combining ancient technology and modern technology are called the reformists, and those who completely abide by the ancient teachings are the original ancestors. As for me..." He smiled, stretched out his fingers, and made an action that showed a very small gap. "I do not reject modern technology, but I also think there are several ancient teachings that cannot be violated, so I am one of the knife makers who are sandwiched between innovation and original ancestors."

Then, the comments began.

"First of all, I have to talk about the master's problem. I have to criticize you a little."

Pointing at Yi Chen.

"It's really... a very random attack method, and it doesn't pay much attention to the maintenance of weapons."

“Ahhaha…”

"It can be seen that these cracks were lost in a head-on battle with another blade. But this is just a fuse. I have accumulated a considerable degree of fatigue before."

Bang...

Put the samurai sword on the ground.

"But it can be felt that you also like this knife, but you just don't know how to treat it. [Not confused], after being named like this, does it cut off your confusion?"

"I'm confused..."

I recalled that in Mulario's arsenal, I attracted all my attention from the corner of my eyes, "It's you" - I feel like this.

"At the beginning, when I chose a weapon, I was attracted to it at the first sight. If I wanted to cut off my confusion, it would probably cut off my hesitation about choosing between various weapons, because that was my doubt at that time."

"It's really good. I followed a good owner, but it's a pity that I don't know how to maintain it at all."

Bai Yidao said that the object of his speech was Yi Chen's weapon. It was as if it was not a tool, but a living being, a kind of person who could understand his own words.

He put away the knife with a more careful movement, and said to Yi Chen: "It's no problem if it's repaired, but judging from your previous performance in killing beasts, its weapon can no longer accommodate you, the master."

“…can’t tolerate me anymore?”

"Your power is too strong, and the blade cannot eat your power, so I wonder, should you choose a new one? Or, use your broken blade as the basis and forge it again, so that it can become a new weapon that can accommodate your weapon?"

"So, please help me forge and upgrade it!"
