"What...?" Nakamura Tsuki stared blankly at Sazanoko, "Miss Sazanoko, what are you saying! We need to escape together..."
"Ayue!"
Before Nakamura Tsuki could finish her sentence, Sazanoko interrupted her impatiently.
"Stop dithering! It's so annoying!"
"I am your master, it's my duty to protect my disciples!"
"My leg can't move! If we both try to escape together, we'll both end up dead!"
"Go quickly!"
With that, Sazanoko roughly pushed Nakamura Tsuki behind her, standing with a sword at the ready, facing the pursuers surging towards her like waves crashing onto the shore.
The pursuing team, including the "Hanging Corner Eye Warrior," formed a long line due to differences in their speeds. Leading the group was a towering, burly man.
- Two, four, six... twelve...
Counting the pursuers, Sazanoko's already grim expression grew even more severe.
If she weren't injured, Sazanoko was confident she could barely take on twelve samurai with just a wakizashi.
