Volume 1: Re:Zero -Starting Life as a Samurai Chapter 38: Attack on Sakakibara Sword Hall (Part 1)
Yuanshan, still with a sullen face, handed the letter in his hand to Asi.
"This is……?"
"Divorce letter."
The words uttered from Yuanshan's mouth made Asi's beautiful almond-shaped eyes widen, and his pupils were full of disbelief.
He snatched the letter from Yuanshan's hand, unfolded it and read it carefully, then he screamed in a sharp voice:
"You're kidding me, right?! If this is a joke, then it's not funny at all!"
"It's not a joke. I'm going to divorce you today."
"S-Shut me?! Did I do something wrong?!" Ash's eyes began to mist over, "Why are you doing this to me?!"
"What did you do wrong?"
Yuanshan seemed to have heard a very funny joke. After laughing grimly a few times, he kicked Asi in the stomach.
While screaming in pain, Asi covered his stomach and slowly fell to the ground.
"You know what you have done to offend me!!"
Yuanshan, with veins bulging on his face and neck, roared.
"My junior brother has seen all of your ugly deeds last night! Do you still want to quibble?!"
"Since you like Ogata more than me, then go live with Ogata!!"
…
…
After listening to Yuanshan's roar, Asi was still confused.
Until now, she still didn't know what she had done wrong to make Yuanshan so angry, so angry that he wanted to divorce her.
She wanted to defend herself.
But Yuanshan was no longer in the mood to listen to her defense.
Yuanshan now had only one thought - to make this bitch disappear from her sight as soon as possible.
Without giving Asi any chance to defend himself, Yuanshan threw all of Asi's clothes and other luggage to Asi, telling Asi to quickly take these things and leave.
As for where Ash would go after leaving his home - Yuanshan was too lazy to think about such a question.
No matter what she said, Yuanshan wouldn't listen and drove her away.
In the end, Ah Shi could only shed tears while packing her luggage and sadly leaving her home in the distant mountains, preparing to return to her parents' home temporarily.
Until she was kicked out of the house by Yuanshan, Ah Shi didn't understand what she had done wrong...
…
…
That night, Itagaki visited Toyama's home because he was a little worried about Toyama's current condition.
After divorcing Asi and kicking him out of the house, Yuanshan is now the only one left in Yuanshan's huge home.
Although he successfully divorced Asi and kicked her out of the house, Yuanshan still didn't feel relieved.
He still felt as if there were huge rocks piling up in his chest, making him feel irritated.
When he entered Toyama's house, Itagaki noticed Toyama's face, which was very gloomy and so dark that it seemed as if ink was about to drip out.
Toyama is the person Itagaki respects the most.
Seeing the appearance of the person he respected the most, Itagaki naturally felt very uncomfortable.
In order to help Toyama cheer up as soon as possible, Itagaki began to seriously think about ways to restore Toyama's mood.
After a while, Itagaki actually came up with a method that he thought was quite useful.
"…Senior Yuanshan."
Itagaki said in a deep voice.
"I think...punishing Ash is not enough."
"Not only should we punish Ah Shi, we should also punish the adulterer!"
"Only in this way can we vent our anger!"
"That Ogata can't possibly not know that Ashina is your wife."
"Knowing that Ah Shi is your wife, you still have an affair with Ah Shi. This is simply showing that you don't take you seriously! "
"We shouldn't just let someone off easily for doing something as despicable as touching a married woman!"
"We should teach him a lesson!"
Toyama has been listening quietly to Itagaki's advice since the beginning.
After Itagaki finished speaking, a hideous shadow appeared on Toyama's face.
"Ah... you're right... we should settle accounts with that Ogata..."
…
…
The next day——
"Hello……"
Ogata rubbed his temples on both sides and cast a helpless look at the account book in front of him.
"Isn't today's workload a bit too much..."
As soon as Ogata finished complaining, a colleague sitting next to him smiled bitterly and said:
"This is a common occurrence. Try to finish all the work quickly so you can go home earlier."
"Alas..." Ogata sighed softly, "This is the only way..."
In the words of modern Earth, Ogata is actually just a corporate slave.
And he's a corporate slave doing the lowest level of work.
As a corporate slave, working overtime is just a common occurrence for him.
Ogata turned his head and looked through the window next to him at the sky outside that was already covered with twilight.
I thought to myself:
——It seems that... the time for sword training at the sword hall today will be shortened...
…
…
While Ogata was working overtime——
Sakakibara Sword Hall——
As usual, Makino arrived at Sakakibara Sword Hall early and started today's sword practice.
After swinging the wooden sword at the air in front of him for more than ten times, Makino stopped.
While adjusting his disordered breathing, he relaxed the muscles in his body.
During the break, Makino 's eyes involuntarily drifted towards the gate of the dojo.
—Ogata-senpai… Today is so slow…
Makino, who didn't know that Ogata had to work overtime today, was puzzled by Ogata's lateness today.
At this moment, an extremely loud noise suddenly came from outside the gate of the dojo.
—Hmm? What's wrong? Why is it so noisy?
Just as Makino and his fellow disciples who were practicing swordsmanship in the dojo were puzzled by the noise outside the dojo, the door of their Sakakibara Sword Hall was slammed open with a loud bang.
Then a large group of warriors rushed into the dojo aggressively.
Looking closely at the large group of samurai who rushed into their Sakakibara Sword Gym, Makino found many familiar faces.
"People from Ishikawa Sword Hall..." Makino frowned involuntarily and muttered softly.
Ishikawa Sword School is the competitor of Sakakibara Sword School, and there are frictions between them from time to time. It is normal for them to get to know each other's people through such "close" contacts.
For example - Makino recognized the leader, it was Toyama Hitoshiro from Ishikawa Sword Hall.
After leading a large group of their Ishikawa Sword School disciples into the Sakakibara Sword School's dojo, Toyama shouted directly:
"Ogata! Ogata Issei! Is Ogata Issei here?!"
——What do they want to do with Ogata-senpai?
Just when Makino was puzzled by the sudden arrival of Toyama and others who specifically asked for Ogata, a deep voice sounded from behind Makino and others:
"I don't know why the people from Ishikawa Sword Hall came to visit me."
The owner of this deep voice was Mikami, who happened to be practicing sword here at this time.
