"I heard that this free comic exhibition is held for "Legend of Sword"." Chiba Shiori said in an envious tone, "It will be great when the novels I write can have such an influence."
This is almost every author’s dream. From the perspective of novel authors who are new to the industry, comics adaptation and animation are almost the pinnacle of life. Although Chiba Shiori is interested in the other side of the world, writing novels is also one of her hobbies.
She would definitely be very excited if she could get a comic adaptation or animation achievement.
Saying that, Chiba Shiori suddenly couldn't walk.
In other words...it's not that she can't walk, but that Chiba Shiori can't walk while holding Kimura Kazuki. Just now, Mucunheshu had been dragged around by her, as if he was thinking about something.
But now Mucun Kazuki stands still and does not want to move. Naturally, Chiba Shiori's weak strength cannot pull him.
"What's wrong?" Chiba Shiori followed Kimura Kazuki's gaze and saw a huge exhibition stand. On the exhibition stand was a banner. She muttered silently, "The peak kendo showdown..."
Before she finished reading, she saw Mucunheshu going directly in that direction. Chiba Shiori hurriedly caught up.
As soon as they came over, they saw two young people wearing casual clothes on the exhibition stand engaged in a kendo duel. The sound made by the collision of bamboo swords was very pleasant.
"...I didn't expect to see a kendo duel at a comic exhibition." Chiba Shiori looked surprised. Although she had not attended many comic exhibitions, she had always heard of it. This was the first time she saw a kendo duel at a comic exhibition. I have to say that the organizer’s idea is very good and eye-catching.
This can be seen from the audience at the scene. There are at least two to three hundred people under the exhibition stand...and because there are so many people gathered, more and more people are coming here.
Kimura Kazuki looked at the two people on the exhibition stand. After just ten seconds, he knew that one had a solid foundation in kendo and the other was a complete beginner, or not even a beginner.
Because the rhythm of the entire duel was controlled by Ono Zhongqing... The name Ono Zhongqing was something he heard from the excited conversation between the two girls in front of him.
"Kondera-chan...you are here too."
When Chiba Shiori and Kimura Kazuki came over, Kucha not far away said hello and also came over. However, she ignored them and smiled, "I knew you Gugu." Will come too."
"There is a kendo competition, why am I missing!" Gugu is an uncle in his thirties. The light novel he writes is related to kendo, so when he saw there was a kendo competition here, he came over.
But obviously, it's not just him. [Light Novel Space] People attending the offline party were all attracted by the movement here.
When people from [Light Novel Space] gathered here one after another. Kimura Kazuki looked at Chiba Shiori, and Chiba Shiori happened to look over, but before she could speak, Kimura Kazuki handed the Sun and Moon Sword to her.
"Keep an eye on it for me."
Kimura Kazuki just learned about the situation with a boy in front of him. If he wants to participate on stage, he must sign up. After registration, the organizer will ask the contestants to change into local clothes and prepare a bamboo sword... so the Sun and Moon Sword will definitely not be used.
"Okay." Chiba Shiori said with a smile. She saw what Mucunheshu asked just now and knew that the other party wanted to compete on stage. But in her impression, the other party was not the kind of person who liked to appear in public, let alone have a sword fight with others in front of hundreds of spectators.
She glanced and saw the banner on the exhibition stand again, "Could it be..."
Qianye Shizhi immediately understood. She took the Sun Moon Sword and hugged it tightly. Having seen the magic of this sword, she naturally couldn't lose it. Moreover, Kimura Kazuki's ability to hand over the Sun and Moon Sword to her for safekeeping is a sign of trust in her.
Seeing Mucunheshu leaving, the others were a little stunned. Many people reacted. Is Kimura Kazuki going to sign up to be on stage
Gugu, an uncle in his thirties, was even more surprised. He didn't need to know the situation. He recognized Ono Zhongqing's face as soon as he looked at him on the stage.
Ono Nakao, eighth place in the youth category of the Asahi Kendo Competition!
Although he is ranked eighth, the value of the Asahi Kendo Competition is the highest in Japan in the eyes of insiders. It’s just that few people know about the Asahi Kendo Competition, and the competition will not be broadcast live. Generally, unless you go to find out about it, you will not know about this competition at all. If you want to watch the Asahi Kendo Competition, you must be led by an acquaintance.
Because the Asahi Kendo Competition is a competition jointly organized by Japan's eight major kendo families in order to prevent kendo skills from stagnating, only members of each major family participate. There are countless schools of Japanese Kendo from ancient times to the present, and all of them are relatively strong that can be passed down to this day.
Ono Nakao is a member of the Ono family and practices the Ono Itto style.
So he knows that the competition on this exhibition stand is actually a show... He is considered an expert, and he can also see that the person who is dueling with Ono Nakao doesn't know anything about kendo at all. He probably has practiced it just like the stage play. .
And he didn't even know Kimura Kazuki... Although there were experts among the people, Kimura Kazuki was only a few years old, and he looked like a high school student. However, although he was not optimistic in his heart, he did not say it out loud.
The same is true for people in [Light Novel Space]. Most of them are not optimistic about Kimura Kazuki. Anyone who regularly attends comic conventions knows that some events have insider secrets. Kendo competitions like this are probably scheduled competitions, and the people who can be the ring masters must have real talents. Otherwise, if the challenger doesn't know how to swordsmanship, wouldn't it mean that just one person on stage can get 150,000
Kucha beside him quietly asked Chiba Shiori, "Kondera-chan, is his kendo level very good?"
Chiba Shiori did not answer directly. She held the Sun and Moon Sword and smiled slightly, "I believe him." Some young men in the [Light Novel Space] nearby heard this and felt sour in their hearts. They all hoped that Kimura Kazuki and others There was an embarrassment on the stage.
"You want to sign up?" Muraoka Xingxia looked at Kimura Kazuki's young face and couldn't help but laugh in his heart. There really was a kid coming to sign up for the competition. To be honest, he didn't think anyone would actually come to sign up. The registration position he set up was just for passers-by to see.
And the people who actually came to power were all those he invited. Because he knew that the people who could come to the comic expo were basically otakus and otakus. Let them enjoy the show in the audience, and the number of people would be absolutely full. But getting them to come to power is basically impossible.
Many otakus don't like to be noticed, because it makes them feel a strong sense of shame. The most important thing is that the average otaku's physical fitness is not very good... plus he is lazy, let alone practicing kendo.
So, the game was cheating from the beginning.
This is why Ono Nakao resisted so hard. Not only did he cheat, but he also asked him to fight with Tuo back and forth. If Muraoka Xingka hadn't been his brother-in-law, he would have cursed and left long ago.
"Yes, I want to sign up." Kimura Kazuki said seriously. He looked at the banner and asked, "150,000 yen. If you win, give it to me immediately."
"Of course, as long as you win, I will immediately give it to you on stage in front of everyone." Although he was laughing in his heart, Muraoka Xingxia looked serious, and then he said, "I will ask the staff to take you to the locker room to change clothes. This fight That’s it, you’ll be on the next show.”
"good."
