REVENGE Of AIKO KENSEI (LOVE IN BATTLE)

#5

Daichi barely recognized Aiko when she was wearing a covered-up ninja costume. Aiko's curves are completely invisible because a protective layer made of light iron coats the inside of the suit.

The new sun rises, Aiko and Daichi will soon go to Yuen's college. Mien seems so heavy to take Aiko off, that half of her life is lost if Aiko leaves her.

Sam's one-handed sword was tucked behind the girl's back. Aiko looked like a dashing swordsman, her tall posture did not look like a fifteen year old child. Even at first glance he is like a boy, Mien and Sam only hope that Aiko's disguise can successfully trick anyone who is in Yuen's college.

Aiko and Daichi set off on a large boat, Aiko waved at Sam and Mien as the boat started to speed.

Mien stared at Aiko's departure until the boat on which the girl was riding disappeared was not caught by her gaze. Sam invites the woman back home, sometimes Sam patted Mien's shoulder so that he does not grieve to let Aiko go.

It didn't take long, Daichi and Aiko arrived at a place where Yuen's college was located.

They walk through a crowded market with traders as well as past buyers. This was the first time for Aiko to come to such a crowded place, usually, the girl only stayed at Sam's house if it came out only when the practice was still not far from Sam's residence.

Some people were astonished to see Aiko and Daichi, many eyes watching the two of them as they crossed the market. Maybe they look foreign, but among them there are also those who look down respectfully at Daichi who is wearing Yuen's uniform. The college did give birth to many warriors who became heroes for truth in that place. Therefore they have great respect for anyone who becomes a student of Yuen's college.

Daichi responded to them with a friendly smile and also lowered his body.

Before long they arrived in front of a sturdy wooden gate, there was also a tall fortress about three meters around the place.

A guard fully dressed as a soldier walked out of the gate. He approached Daichi when he saw them coming from his place of vigil.

Daichi shows a business card from a small block board that hangs in his uniform, to show his identity that he is a student of Yuen's college.

'' I brought a new student here, Daichi said pointing his finger at Aiko, and the guard watched Aiko from head to toe.

'' Come in, I'll take you to Mr. Ming's. '' The man opened the wooden gate that seemed to be very heavy, then let Aiko and Daichi in.

Aiko's gaze swept around Yuen's college area. A very good place according to him, some tall buildings were clearly visible when he stepped into the gate. They walked following the gatekeeper earlier, there were several others who replaced his duty of guarding the main door of the college.

Aiko was more interested when crossing some students who were practicing martial arts on the green grass like a rug in the courtyard of the place. Some of them look back at Aiko walking, maybe Aiko is really foreign to them let alone the clothes Aiko wears instead of college uniforms.

Arrived in front of a door leading to the Ming room of Yuen's college owner. They went inside after getting permission from Ming.

'' Mr. Ming, Daichi brought his friend here, he wants to study in this place, explained the guard who delivered Aiko and Daichi earlier.

Min who was sitting on the throne was staring at Aiko. The girl also looked down to pay her respects.

'' He's Aiko sir, sorry he can't speak Daichi said recklessly without asking Aiko's prior approval.

Sure made Aiko surprised and looked at the man standing right next to her. Daichi means well, he just doesn't want them to hear Aiko's voice, he worries Aiko's disguise is exposed. Though Aiko herself can cope with such a thing, she can change her voice to look like a man but Daichi instead said he was mute.

Feng a Kyoshi (teacher) who was also there knitted his two thick eyebrows together. Feeling doubtful with the new student that Daichi brought, let alone his word he was mute how can a mute learn in this place. Feng slightly objected to Aiko's arrival.

Ming responded very wisely, he just smiled kindly looking at Aiko who was only part of the eye visible.

'' Welcome to our college, I hope you can study well here. Daichi take him to the room with you, said Ming.

'' Room with me ? '' Daichi was very surprised by the chapter he knew very well if the one standing next to him was Aiko a girl who was disguised as a boy.

'' Yes. Why ? '' Ming scrunched his forehead.

'' Ti-it's okay sir, it's just that I've got one room with Kazuo so it's impossible if the three of us stay one room, elak Daichi.

'' Then let Kazuo move to another room, I purposely made you roommates so that you Daichi can tell all the rules in this college, you are more familiar with Aiko instead ? '' said Ming.

'' Alright, Daichi said with a heavy heart.

While Aiko herself does not mind even having a room with Daichi, it is better than rooming with other men who certainly do not know his disguise. With Daichi he can be more free later, even though he knows Daichi's boy who shouldn't be one room with him. But what can be done, the most important thing now Aiko can be accepted to be one of Yuen's college students.

Daichi and Aiko withdrew from the Ming room, leaving Ming and Feng both. Feng strongly disagreed with Ming's decision to accept a mute person in this place, Yuen's college was so famous how could one of his students exist who had flaws like Aiko's.

'' Mr Ming, are you not making the wrong decision ? '' feng asked after Aiko and Daichi left.

'' Meaning ? '' Ming looked calm.

'' Aiko is mute, Feng stressed.

'' I know he's mute, but I see potential within him. Mute is not a problem, the important thing is that he can follow every lesson here.

'' What ? It's up to you sir, which is certain that if Aiko is to disappoint then I will ask her to leave here Feng passed from the presence of Ming who was stroking his long beard.

Ming has strong instincts, he can see Aiko's ability even from the look of his eyes. Although he still can not know the disguise Aiko did. Aiko's eyes reminded her of someone. Ming still remembered who the person who had the same look in the eye as Aiko.
