"But I think this rumor... is likely one of the many false rumors."
"After all, Mamiya Kurō was a great sword hero who became active during the Kansei Era, 70 years ago."
"The chance he's alive now... I think is quite small."
The crowd listened quietly to the story of Mamiya Kurō.
As Chiba Eijiro finished speaking, everyone showed expressions of amazement and shock.
Everyone felt a thousand emotions about such a formidable character amidst the long river of history.
Only Aoto's expression appeared somewhat unusual...
The immensely powerful great sword hero, the vividly described legend of slicing through armor on an ironclad ship, known by the moniker "Flowing Light Eight Banners," rumored to be residing in Edo now...
All of this made Aoto involuntarily recall the eternal talent "Eightfold Banner of No Regrets" he copied that night a few days ago, as well as the mysterious figure in a brown robe from whom he copied this talent.
