I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 379

"This is magic again... But, Li, weren't you proven to have no talent for using magic at the Magic Academy?" Rachel Miyamoto asked curiously.

"Magic, this is not magic... Strictly speaking, this is a scar, but it doesn't matter. Are you feeling better now?" Li Yan asked, sitting aside with a faint star glow on his body.

"...Scars?"

Rachel Miyamoto looked at him in confusion, but couldn't see through anything. She nodded, showing a hint of embarrassment, and said: "It's much better now...Thanks to you, thank you, Your Excellency, Staff Officer."

"It's okay." Li Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said.

Rachel Miyamoto felt a little depressed. She lowered her head, feeling very confused. She looked at the sea not far away. After finally returning to her country, she saw such a tragedy, and the tragic cries of countless people still lingered in her heart. , making it difficult for her to get rid of it.

"Such a trip is really thrilling. I didn't expect that as soon as I left the Kingdom of Lotik and the protection of the eldest princess, I found that my strength was so weak... I was tortured every day, and I also wondered whether such precious medicine could really be obtained. I wonder if the dragon poison in my body can really be unlocked... When I sank to the bottom of the sea, I even comforted myself that if I just sank like this, maybe..."

"It would be nice to just stay at the bottom of the sea with this kind of thinking!"

Li Yan turned his face and stared at her, suddenly interrupting her loss and emotion. These calm and refuting words made Rachel Miyamoto suddenly startled and looked at him.

"If you have this kind of mood, you will never find happiness."

Li Yan looked at her and continued: "Sure enough, Miyamoto, your mood is that of a eldest lady. Even the police officer who arrested me is not strong enough in mind. You need to understand this about yourself. That’s not candor, that’s cowardice.”

"..." Rachel Miyamoto felt deep pain in her heart.

There is a bright sky above his head, and around him is the endless sea of ​​blue and ink. Li Yan's eyes are like bright lights in the darkness, without fear of the future.

"Tomorrow we may have to face countless difficulties and crises again, but we must continue to fight for the unfinished things, for the emotions that are still in our hearts, and for the precious future. We must fight for it. Don't give up. "This adventure is nothing. If you are tired, you can take a breath, but don't stop. We still have hope and dreams, so we must live on."

Li Yan said this quietly, and he put his three-cornered hat on Rachel Miyamoto's head. Rachel Miyamoto looked into his eyes in disbelief, as if he was fighting a dragon to the death that night. The persistence and fearlessness in fighting are just like looking at this vast ocean, so boundless and endless, which makes people completely shocked.

After a moment of silence, Rachel Miyamoto closed her eyes.

It seems that she understands that if there is a girl exactly like her in this world and sees her emotions in the deep sea, maybe she can really understand why she has been belittling the other person, but she began to admire and embark on the journey. The path his back walked.

"It is my fault."

"...If you are suffering in the future and can't bear it, just talk to me." Li Yan was silent for a moment, then put away his seriousness, and lightly added the last part of his words to Rachel Miyamoto. Words of comfort.

…

After encountering a shipwreck, Li Yan had been choosing a route based on the angle of the sun and ocean currents. Originally, the ship was closer to the shore when the accident occurred. After a day of starvation and hard rowing, late at night, he finally Encountered a team of fishing boats going out to sea for fishing.

This time, they were really lucky. When the fishermen heard that they had escaped from Umibozu, they all sighed and thought that they were quite lucky. After Li Yan used the silver coins he brought to buy some of the fishermen’s clothes and food , followed them back to the shore.

After returning to the shore, after Li Yan inquired about the location and route, he finally decided to set off as soon as possible to the Echigo Land. So he bought two horses with few coins left and started to take the overland road to Tochio Castle. This is a destination.

However, it seemed that because they were old clothes bought from fishermen, Rachel Miyamoto, who had always been relatively pampered, was not used to wearing such rough clothes. As a result, she temporarily borrowed the hat and windbreaker that Li Yan gave her. Following Li Yan, he headed to Echigo Country day and night.

As a result, it took several days. In the early morning of one day, Li Yan and Rachel Miyamoto once again set out after camping. After arriving at a mountain village among the mountains and forests, they checked the rough map they bought. Suddenly, they discovered that after several days of traveling, the two of them had arrived at the border area of ​​Echigo Country. All of a sudden, Tochio Castle was very close at hand.

"Miss Sheriff, we are almost at our destination now, and our travel expenses are about to run out. It's great to be able to catch up."

After renovating the village, they came to the deep mountains and woods. Li Yan was in a very good mood and said to Rachel Miyamoto.

"...Yes, but we don't have the documents of the eldest princess. How can we explain our identity to the daimyo of Echigo Kingdom? Whether it is you or me, we look like Orientals, so it is completely unconvincing."

Rachel Miyamoto said with a bit of worry.

"There must be a road for a car to reach the mountain, and it will be straight for a boat to reach the bridge. This is a saying in the Yu Kingdom. No matter how good your plan is, everything will not go smoothly. Anyway, go there first, and I will follow up with Daimyo Sugi. Make it clear that if he is as knowledgeable and righteous as the legend says, communication will not be a problem."

Li Yan had already considered it. He looked at Rachel Miyamoto who was walking side by side and said.

However, that being said, no one has ever seen what Uesugi Kenshin looks like. Li Yan originally got his pen name because of the anime character Uesugi Kenshin, but in reality, he doesn’t have much interest in Uesugi Kenshin. After all, he Not a fan of Warring States history.

And Rachel Miyamoto also had many things on her mind. Now that she has grown up, she once again set foot on the land of Fuso. After experiencing all the way, she found that it was completely different from her childhood memories.

Not only was there a large number of Warring States, but there were also many thieves, the productivity was relatively primitive, the people were barren, and the social stability and economy were far inferior to those of Lotik Great Britain. However, there were constant wars and the people were living in dire straits.

This is her hometown...

Apart from feeling distressed, I also realized that when I grew up, it seemed that Fusang people no longer regarded her as a Fusang person, but as a foreigner.

Suddenly, while walking through the woods, there was a shot.

【pound! 】

The expressions of Li Yan and Rachel Miyamoto suddenly changed, and they immediately dismounted. Li Yan also immediately took out the musket he had taken from the robber before, and alerted the surroundings.

However, the gunfire did not come from nearby, but from a relatively distant place. It seemed that someone was ambushed.

"Miyamoto, protect yourself." Li Yan used his horse as cover, looked back at Rachel Miyamoto, and whispered.

"Yes." Rachel Miyamoto nodded, holding the double-barreled pistol brought from Lotik.

Li Yan can be protected by Rachel Miyamoto. He leads the horse and moves forward with a gun to investigate the situation.

Soon, the sound of galloping horses came over. As a result, Li Yan looked around at the sound and saw several horses running quickly on another narrow mountain road on the slope below the woods.

The leader who escaped turned out to be a general wearing red armor. He wore an Asura iron mask on his head to cover his face, and his weapon was a long gun. He seemed to have been shot in the shoulder, and blood was oozing out. The condition of his entourage was also very bad. Oops, he was either scarred or shot in the back by an arrow. He looked like he was running away in defeat. However, there were female followers following him in the crowd.

"Wait!!"

Not far behind, there were more than a dozen horse thieves armed with muskets and bows and arrows, chasing after them. They seemed to be greedy for the money and treasures of this general, and they did not hesitate to take risks against the nobles. From their perspective, , it seems that after a melee, many people were injured, and some of them were scarred.

This is almost a dilemma. The bushes in front are not suitable for horses to run. It is very likely that the people in front will be overtaken.

"..."

After Li Yan thought about it, he finally had a very bad impression of the horse thief who had killed countless people, not to mention that there were women on the other side. He had already left Rachel Miyamoto in a safer place, so he stretched out the muzzle of his gun and aimed it at A horse thief with a musket.

"The sheriff should be responsible for such a thing, not me, an eroge novel writer..." Li Yan thought mockingly as he pulled the trigger.

As soon as the crisp gunfire rang out, the horse thief who was aiming his gun at the red-armored general and was about to pull the trigger was shot. Suddenly, the whole horse fell to the ground, like a boney Nomi card. The team behind them were thrown into chaos.

Soon, the red-armored general seemed to realize that the opportunity was too close to miss, and immediately stopped his horse, and immediately took several followers with him and shot him back with a long gun.

Taking advantage of the chaos to fight, the horse thieves who did not expect an ambush soon became afraid to fight and were defeated. Except for some who were annihilated, the rest fled back to the depths of the woods in embarrassment.

"What happened?"

After Rachel Miyamoto heard the gunfire, she rushed over on horseback. She saw Li Yan, who was safe and sound, on a small battlefield with a pile of corpses, and asked in shock.

"As you can see, we encountered horse thieves, so we intervened." Li Yan put away his musket and sword and said.

Suddenly, while Li Yan and Rachel Miyamoto were still talking, the general who had escaped from death dismounted, walked over, and asked: "Don't you dare neglect the favor of saving your life? How dare you ask this warrior?" What’s your surname?”

Vaguely, both Li Yan and Rachel Miyamoto could tell that the voice of the man in gorgeous armor sounded like that of a young woman.

"My name is George Uesugi, and I am the staff envoy of the Kingdom of Lotik Great Britain. This person is my assistant, the Sheriff of the Kingdom of Lotik Great Britain. We just happened to see your predicament and came to rescue you."
