Chapter 587 9 Li Ren
Seeing the sudden appearance of Lei Dianzhen and Lei Dianying, the man in black's eyes were filled with disbelief, and then he seemed to want to escape, but the chains transformed from the lightning element directly bound him to the spot.
"Man in black...or rather, Kujo Reijin, if you can, repeat what you just said to me, what will it become?"
Purple light flashed in Raiden Zhen's pupils, and Lei Dianying behind her even raised her naginata, as if she would draw her sword and chop people on the spot if Raiden Zhen gave the order.
In fact, if Lei Dian really expressed his opinion, he would indeed pick up a knife and chop people.
"...Hehe...Hehe...Sure enough, my guess has always been correct..."
The man in black...or rather, Kujo Reijin took off his mask, revealing a rather handsome face.
It’s a pity that there is a deep scar on this handsome face, which completely destroys the handsomeness of this face.
"As expected, you've known this all along, Master Narukami!"
Kujo Reihito's ink-black eyes stared at Raiden Shin in front of her, and then she looked at Raiden Dianying behind her.
"And... General?"
"You know that, too, don't you?"
(Since Kujo Reijin will run through the story of Inazuma in this novel, he will be set up accordingly)
————The dividing line for the setting of “I am Kujo Reijin”————
"The wealth and splendor he had since birth did not deceive his eyes. He never seemed to choose to retreat. When facing a battle, he had no choice but to move forward. It was just a pity... he seemed to have taken the wrong path due to an accident." - Kitsai Palace
Kujo Reijin, the second son of the head of the Kujo family and the younger brother of Kujo Kamajui, has been learning martial arts since he was a child. When he was thirteen years old, he relied on pure swordsmanship to defeat the founder of the "Soul Chasing Ittoryu" who was fighting with all his strength.
(Note: The founder of Soul Chasing Sword Style is a "fire elemental god", while the 13-year-old Kujo Reijin is just an ordinary person with slightly advanced martial arts skills)
He... has the reputation of "Young Grandmaster"!
As the second son of the Kujo family and an aristocrat in the eyes of the common people, he is very different from traditional aristocratic children.
Although Kujo Reijin is the second son of the Kujo family, he is not at all arrogant.
He often traveled around the streets of Inazuma, interacting with ordinary people and understanding their life difficulties and needs.
In the market, he would patiently listen to old craftsmen talk about the difficulties in passing on traditional skills, applaud the performances of street performers, and even help fishermen repair their worn-out fishing nets or assist farmers in their work in the fields in his spare time.
In social occasions within the family, he always treats elders and peers with a humble and gentle attitude. Facing the teachings of the family elders, he listens with an open mind and remembers them in his heart; when getting along with his peers, he never relies on his talent to be arrogant, but actively shares his martial arts experience and insights, encouraging everyone to make progress together.
For him, noble status has never been a source of pride, and powerful strength is only a tool to protect civilians. If he wants to be loved by everyone, he must practice "virtue and courtesy".
———People’s smiles are very important to me. I always feel very satisfied when I see people smiling from the bottom of their hearts.
If he had any wish...
That is, I don’t want to see sadness and pain in everyone’s eyes anymore.
Beneath his gentle appearance, he has an absolute heart to protect the common people of Inazuma!
……
At the age of nine, Kujo Reijin was calm beyond his age, but he was still a teenager. Under the instigation of his brother Kujo Kamajui, he agreed to run away from home after some hesitation.
This was the first time he went against his own conscience.
Walking with his brother through the streets and alleys of Inazuma City, he saw scenes he had never seen before.
He was overwhelmed by the novel toys and noisy hawking sounds. He passed by stalls filled with exquisite handicrafts. The colorful masks, delicate paper products and uniquely shaped puppets all exuded a unique charm.
This atmosphere, which was completely different from the strictness at home, planted a small seed in his heart.
……
When he was ten years old, he once again went against his own heart and stopped immersing himself in the improvement of martial arts. Instead, he secretly ran away from home with his brother and once again came to various places in Inazuma Castle.
Coming from the upper area of Inazuma Castle to the lower area, the young Kujo Reijin had a strange question in his mind.
That's why there are "nobles" and "non-nobles"...
He asked this question to his brother, but his brother did not understand what he meant and took him to continue traveling to other places.
So, with this strange question in mind, he and his brother came to the lower area of Inazuma...
When he arrived at the lower area, what he saw was even more plain, and also more...confusing.
From the mouths of those civilians, he heard more truthful information about Inazuma's current situation.
In the remote areas of the Inazuma Islands, some ordinary Inazuma people cannot lead a stable and happy life, and they are often attacked by dangerous sea creatures and monsters.
After hearing this information, Kujo Reijin silently decided in his heart that when he grows up, he must go to those remote areas to clear out the monsters and eliminate all dangers so that the people there can live a happy and stable life!
……
At the age of thirteen, Kujo Reijin, who had already mastered all the sword and knife skills in his family, defeated all his followers, including those martial arts masters with great reputation.
So, he turned his attention to those "original gods" who were different from ordinary people and could control extraordinary power and elemental force.
Wind, rock, thunder, grass, water, fire, ice, the power of seven elements...what does this mean?
For Kujo Reijin, this means nine different opponents!
From a "original god" who was loyal to his family, to a swordsman who founded a sword school, Kujo Reihito defeated all his opponents with just his own sword.
As the saying goes, "It's lonely at the top", Kujo Reijin, who felt that he had reached the pinnacle, challenged "Iwakura Kyoyuki", who was known as the strongest swordsman at that time.
As for the outcome of the battle...
Not surprisingly, Iwazaki Yoshiyuki won.
The first defeat left Kujo Reihito confused. Seeing that such a genius was about to go extreme, Iwazō Kyoyuki tried his best to guide him.
Under the guidance of Iwazaki Kyoyuki, Kujo Reijin walked out of the shadows, completely recognized his own position, and decided to travel all over the famous mountains and rivers of Inazuma to study martial arts!
