Chapter 5 - [Monster] and [Little Monster] and [Son of Monster]

“Search, it turns out that it was [beep–] who hacked randomly.” Katsura supported his chin and nodded at the same time.

“Shouldn’t you be complaining at this time? What kind of lousy name is this!”

This time, it was Takasugi’s turn to ridicule Katsura.

“I was just thinking, maybe this name has some other meaning.” Katsura raised his head to look at Takasugi and explained.

“What’s the point of this kind of broken name? It’s clearly a certain author is not good at words! It’s obvious at a glance!” Takasugi replied, but in the end, he still sighed, “Forget it.”.

“Strange strength, extraordinary physical ability. In addition to your disorganized sword technique, it is simply like a [little monster].” Takasugi looked at Kawaki who was showing off the sword in his hand and said.

“It’s not some [little monster]. It’s just a fool of this universe.” Gintoki could not help but saying.

“What did you say You silver-haired sh*t sh*t maniac!” Kawaki immediately grimaced in pain.

However, this time, Gintoki didn’t continue arguing with Kawaki. Instead, he looked at Takasugi and said, “But neither I nor this idiot took a single book from Shouyou.”

“I see… I’m getting more and more curious about him.” Takasugi did not seem to care at all.

“Up to you. But before you win against the two of us, you won’t have the chance to challenge Shouyou.”

“Even if you say so, it’s impossible for you to win against me.”

“Speaking of which, is it really okay for you to skip classes every day?” Kawaki suddenly asked curiously.

“It doesn’t matter if it’s today, because today is the weekend…” After Katsura finished speaking, Kawaki and Gintoki were both stunned. Katsura’s words kept repeating in Kawaki and Gintoki’s minds.

“Don’t you know?” Katsura continued.

‘Don’t know?’

‘Do you know?’

‘Today is the weekend, the day is the weekend, the weekend is the weekend, the weekend, the weekend, the end…’

Kawaki’s mind was filled with these two words, “I just feel that something is wrong! Why are there only the two of us in today’s private school?”

“The two of you are really a pair of idiots.” Takasugi couldn’t help but ridicule them.

Then, the four of them began to laugh. There was nothing else mixed in. It was just the purest laughter that spread from the dojo to a very, very distant place…

…….

“Shouyou,” Kawaki shouted.

Shouyou, who was sitting in front of the door and looking at the sunset, turned his head and showed his signature smile.

Kawaki walked to Shouyou and sat down.

“It’s so beautiful —” Kawaki also looked at the sunset in the distance and sighed.

“Compared to the sunrise?” Shouyou asked.

“I don’t know, but… Not just the sunrise and sunset of every day, but every moment of every day, the current me feels incomparably beautiful.”

“It seems that you have found the answer to [life],” Shouyou said happily and reached out to touch Kawaki’s head.

“Probably.” Kawaki lowered his head and touched his chest. “I really want to see someone or two people again. The current me really wants them to see.”

“However, the current me also has a new life that I want to try. I have companions. Perhaps the family she mentioned at that time was this feeling…. I began to feel reluctant and want to go with you. So I will wait until the future. In the future, I can stand in front of those two people and tell them my life. Because they have my new life!”

“In less than two years, have you grown to this extent? It’s really incredible. Maybe humans are such incredible creatures…. Then, you should continue to live according to your will. You have unknowingly grown into a disciple who makes me proud.” Shouyou said.

After saying that, Shouyou smiled. The setting sun shone on Shouyou’s face. This scene was also imprinted in the depths of Kawaki’s heart.

Forever…

…….

Kawaki shouted, “One!”

“Amazing!”

A group of children instantly surrounded Takasugi.

“You can actually beat that Gintoki!”

“Great!”

“It was worth your efforts!”

The group of children rushed at Takasugi and spoke at the same time.

“Don’t… don’t be so familiar with each other. Am I from the same school as you?” Takasugi could not help but panic.

“Ah, isn’t that so?” Shouyou’s voice came from behind Takasugi at this time. “I thought you had joined my school a long time ago. After all, you are very active in training your sword every day… No, you are here to challenge the dojo.”

After Shouyou finished speaking, all the children laughed at the same time. Takasugi also showed some embarrassment and became shy.

“Hey! Where did this happy atmosphere come from?” Gintoki, who was on the ground, could not help but shout, “That kid is here to challenge the dojo! The invincible legend of the dojo has been broken! Hey! My [beep–]‘s membrane has been broken!”

“What undefeated legend? Don’t you still have me?” Kawaki couldn’t help but walk to Gintoki’s side and bend down. “It seems that I am the boss, Gintoki.”

“You can’t hide the happiness on your face anymore! You bastard!” Gintoki looked at Kawaki who was gloating and flew into a rage out of humiliation.

“What are you fighting for? Let’s make rice balls together!” Katsura, who had arrived at some unknown time, held the rice ball and leaned down to pat Gintoki’s shoulder on the other side.

“Zura, when did you come? Why are you making rice balls at this time? Do you know how to teleport? Besides, who wants to eat your rice balls!”

“Oh, I want to eat braised pork,” Kawaki said at this time.

“It’s not Zura, it’s Katsura! And there’s no such thing! And I didn’t say it could be eaten! It’s just a pinch!” Katsura replied.

“What kind of damned ceremony is that!” Gintoki complained.

“Ah, I have already eaten.” Shouyou’s voice came over.

Everyone looked over and saw that Shouyou was holding a rice ball that had been bitten, and there were several grains of rice on the corner of his mouth.

“So fast!”

After Gintoki finished speaking, everyone laughed. Even Takasugi, who was surrounded by children, unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth and laughed along with everyone.

……

“Gintoki, that’s enough. Why is it already the eighth time today?” Kawaki looked at Gintoki who was defeated by Shouyou again and could not help but shout.

“It’s not… it’s not over yet. My sword hasn’t been broken yet. Let’s have another match, Shouyou!” Gintoki gritted his teeth and got up again.

As Kawaki had expected, Gintoki still lost in the end. Even he had never won a book from Shouyou. He was simply like a real monster.

After the match, the three of them sat side by side in front of the door, looking at the setting sun in the distance. Shouyou sat in the middle, while Gintoki and Kawaki sat on both sides of Shouyou.

“What a pity, you two,” Shouyou said.

“Teacher, what do you think is a pity?” Gintoki asked with a head full of bags.

“It’s here,” Shouyou replied without hesitation.

“Where exactly?” Gintoki instantly answered.

“Alright, actually, it’s there,” Shouyou replied.

“Shouyou, what can I do to become as strong as you?” Gintoki sighed and couldn’t help but ask, “Before I met you, I didn’t even lose to an adult. A simple adult is not enough to describe you. You are [Monster].”

“Then I am [Little Monster]! Gintoki, let’s go play volleyball together!” Kawaki interrupted.

“If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have lent you the >Haikyu!!!!
“You’re wrong, Gintoki. Actually, what about me?” Shouyou looked at Gintoki, paused, and continued, “I like Os- Bu.”

[Author Note: Japan has the names of two baseball teams. One is a giant, and the other is Osaka.]

“Teacher, did you hear what I said? I mean I have never seen a monster like you! You two are enough! One is a baseball, the other is a volleyball! What kind of obsession do you have for the ball?”

“Isn’t it normal for a man to be interested in the ball?” Kawaki retorted.

“Who said it was that ball! Speaking of which, where did you learn so many dirty jokes from!”

“You are the one with a brain full of thoughts, [beep–]. The ball I was talking about is not the ball you were talking about, you bastard!” Kawaki retorted.

“Haha, the relationship between the two of you is really good.” Shouyou looked at the two little ones who were about to start fighting again and couldn’t help but laugh.

“Who has a good relationship with this guy?” The two of them said at the same time.

However, Shouyou did not mind. He continued, “Monster, little monster, and the son of the monster. In a sense, it is the same. Monster is inhuman. Monster’s sword can’t kill monsters…. Therefore, the two of you shouldn’t imitate me for becoming stronger. Of course, Kawaki had already done this very well. You must use your own swords, human swords, to make yourself stronger than me. I am looking forward to that day…”

“Teacher, I don’t want a son like Gintoki.” Kawaki raised his hand and said.

“Who is your son! It’s just a metaphor! Are you stupid???” Gintoki couldn’t help but complain, “You didn’t just listen to the first sentence, did you? Your expression is completely in a dilemma! Can you listen carefully when the teacher speaks? You bastard!”

“What right does a guy who can’t even attend a few days of classes in a month have to criticize me!” Kawaki retorted without hesitation and poked at Gintoki’s sore spot once more, “Even Little Gao has already defeated you —“

“You!”

When his humiliation was brought up, Gintoki instantly exploded.

“Gintoki, why do you want to become stronger?” Kawaki finally became serious.

“What kind of question is this? Do you need a reason to become stronger? Of course, it is…” Gintoki curled his lips.

However, the next second, Gintoki was stunned. The answer seemed to be on the tip of his tongue, but he could not say it no matter what.

‘Why?’

Gintoki suddenly did not know how to answer.

“You too? Me too. Why do you want to become stronger? What is the meaning of becoming stronger? I can’t find an answer…. Teacher, can you answer this question? Why do we want to become stronger? Why can’t we help but want to become stronger?” Kawaki asked, looking at Shouyou.

“Who knows? But there is only one thing. If willpower makes you stronger, then follow it and become stronger. In the future, perhaps your strength can become something you want to rely on to protect.” As Shouyou spoke, he placed both of his hands on Kawaki and Gintoki’s heads at the same time and rubbed their little heads.
