The pleasant voice of a woman made Aoto lift his gaze.
He saw a young woman gracefully walking towards him from the direction of the Little Chiba Sword Dojo entrance.
It was Sazanoko.
At this moment, Sazanoko was in her "female warrior" state.
Her three thousand strands of beautiful hair were tied high with a blue satin ribbon, forming a neat high ponytail at the back of her head. Her kendo uniform, white on top and blue below, perfectly outlined her shapely figure. A pair of clean white socks and delicate blue-buttoned flat wooden clogs encased her slender feet.
Just then, a warm summer breeze gently blew through.
The green fallen leaves on the ground danced in the wind.
Along with them danced the blue satin ribbon tying Sazanoko's hair, her soft beautiful hair on her forehead and temples, and the hem of her skirt hakama.
The swaying ribbon and hair added a different brilliance to the surrounding sky and earth.
"Good morning, Miss Sazanoko."
