When the Juggernaut Comes To the Second Dimension

In this bustling commercial street, Yong Ye with two knives hanging on his waist is not so eye-catching, it can only be regarded as an ordinary street scene. There is no Abandoned Knife Order here. Not unusual.

However, contrary to the people here, the prosperity of this street is something that Yongye has never witnessed. The memories of the past have long since collapsed and disappeared, and the fortresses passing by are all on the front line, and everyone has a sense of precarity. It also relies too much on the supplies in the rear, and there is basically no trade between civilians.

This fortress is behind the battle line, so there is a scene of living and working in peace and contentment, although... In Yong Ye's eyes, this is actually just a bubble that will burst at the touch of a touch.

The two front fortresses are all finished. Although there are other fortresses nearby, because of the loopholes in the defense line, this fortress was exposed like the bottom of a valley in a concave shape.

Maybe there won't be any big problems these days, but it won't take long for Kabane's army to approach the city, and by then this place will become the front line against Kabane.

"...Peace really makes people look forward to it. If you can live in peace and safety, maybe it's a very good thing... right? But, you still can't stay in this city for a long time."

After handing over the money to the shop owner, while Yong Ye lamented the beauty of peace, he couldn't help but think of his original goal when he first came to this world.

"My lord, where are these salted fish and melons and fruits going to be sent?"

The clerk in the shop loaded all the food that Yong Ye had specified into the human-powered truck and asked where Yong Ye was going to send these things.

"Just send it to the Juncheng that just arrived at the station, over there to the Kotetsu... Come with me."

"Okay~!"

After beckoning, Yong Ye took the lead and walked in front. The clerk nodded enthusiastically in front of him as a big seller, rubbed his hands, and followed him with a cart of food.

Well... these are not staple food, but the most that can be bought in the market can only be this level.

On the side of the Kotetsu Castle, steam craftsmen are cleaning and renovating the exterior of the Kotetsu City, while women wash clothes in groups by the small river, and a large pile of quilts are placed on the cobblestones on both sides of the river bed to dry.

There is no way to dry the quilts on the train. If you don’t dry them after such a long time, these quilts will probably become moldy.

However, Yong Ye's compartment was previously impossible for others to enter, and now even if it is opened for storing food, no one dares to enter or wants to enter, so naturally no one helps him to dry the bedding.

"...Do you need to do your own food and clothing?"

Looking at the crowd at the bottom of the river, remembering that his bedding seemed to be showing signs of damp, Yong Ye began to worry whether he should dry the bedding by himself, or just find someone to do it.

Before he could get an answer to this trouble, he suddenly found that Wuming had entered the wide-open compartment door, carried his quilt out, and then jumped directly into the underground river from a high place.

"Well, it seems that it is not necessary now."

Muttering to himself, Yong Ye immediately jumped off the top of the Katiecheng train, and helped to dry the bedding for Wuming who was surprised at why he suddenly appeared.

...

Then, it's time for a bath.

The water tanks on the Iron Fortress don’t have much water, even Yong Ye can’t take a bath every day, and every time he takes a bath, he needs to be careful about the amount of water. You know, it’s summer now...

Near the edge of the river, there are several bathing areas with white cloths drawn around to distinguish between men and women. Well... the conditions are like this, only river water can be used...

It was originally a public bathing area, but as soon as Yongye entered, he immediately frightened the seven or eight men in this partition, just picked up their clothes, and ran out naked without even having time to put them on.

"...Well, the feeling of booking is not bad."

Yong Ye, who didn't like taking a bath in the public bathhouse, listened to the screams of the women outside, and while appreciating the actions of those men who took the initiative to run out, he also nodded in satisfaction.

In fact, even if those people didn't take the initiative to go out, they would be kicked out by him. After all, even if there was a cover underneath, he didn't like being stared at by a few naked men, it would make him chill.

Looking at the knife at hand, Yong Ye just put it aside and within easy reach, and began to undress.

Then……

"—Wow~!!"

An exclamation suddenly exploded without warning.

"...What are you doing? Could it be peeping? I will throw you directly into the river?"

Letting go of the handle of the knife that was held in the palm of his hand just now, Yong Ye looked at Wuming with a cold face when he opened the white cloth and a head popped out, staring blankly at him.

It doesn't matter if he is looked at, but when he saw him, he suddenly screamed, which startled him. He screamed so loudly even though he was naked, which made him wonder if this yellow-haired girl suddenly wanted to do something wrong again. Good thing.

Yong Ye is very clear about Wuming's lively and active personality, but being too lively is not a good thing, so if this incident is also a prank, then he will definitely educate and educate this overly active, possibly itchy child.

However, Wuming didn't seem to be playing around this time, because... her eyes did not have the usual smile, but were full of shock.

"No, no, no... I was taken aback by you..."

"Huh? Didn't you see me coming in? Now that you know I'm inside, why should you be surprised?"

Wuming's surprised look was not faked, which made Yong Ye very puzzled. Why was she so surprised? Or... is there anything surprising here?

Facing his confusion, Wuming didn't answer immediately, but just walked into the open-air bathroom and pointed at Yong Ye's chest with a scar above his heart with his finger.

"This...wasn't it made in the underground tunnel last time? Was it made out of a duel with some samurai before? Or was it injured when fighting a trickster?"

"It's left by someone, but...not a duel or a samurai..."

"...You don't mean ordinary people, do you?"

"He's really an ordinary person."

"How is it possible! How could ordinary people leave wounds on your body?"

This ordinary person's statement made Wuming roll his eyes, with a look of disbelief.

Faced with this obvious doubt, Yong Ye just shook his head silently, ran his index finger across the slightly sunken scar on his chest, and after thinking for a moment as if recalling it, he slowly opened his mouth.

"——This is... a son of a warrior I executed. The child was only about eight or nine years old."

"...Huh? A child around eight or nine years old?"

Even though Yong Ye said very seriously, Wuming still couldn't believe his words after hesitating for a moment.

"...Ordinary children can hurt you at the age of eight or nine? Or leave such a wound on this fatal part?? Liar?!"

It's not that he doesn't believe in Yong Ye, but the content of these words is really beyond imagination. You must know that Yong Ye's strength is difficult to find even if you search all over the country. There is someone who can be stronger than him.

Don't talk about humans, even she, Kabaneri, who surpassed human beings, is not his opponent.

Chapter 54 No one is wrong

"There is no need to lie to you. I was also on the way to escape at that time... I remember that the second fortress I lived in was destroyed. At that time, I was not in an independent carriage on the Iron Fortress."

Recalling the second time he fled in the Iron Fortress, Yong Ye couldn't help but sighed with a wry smile.

"That night, because the fortress was just broken, I was a little tired after fighting and fleeing, and I fell asleep too dead if I didn't pay attention. It happened that the child was not guarded because he was with a child, and entered the room with an innocent appearance. I got into the carriage where the samurai lived, and while I was drowsy, I took a dagger at night to avenge my father. The scabbard knife sent the dagger flying, and I must be a dead man now..."
