16: My common sense and the world’s common sense
“Taking into account Yato-sama’s wishes, as well as Utakata-sama’s and Tsuki-sama’s, I suggest that Yato-sama learn Aikido. How about it?”
“「「「Aikido…」」」”
The three of them harmonized their words at Rei-san’s words
Oh… Aikido exists in this world too, huh? I feel a bit nostalgic
By the way, I also practiced Aikido in my previous life
“Rei-san… What kind of martial art is Aikido?”
It’s true that even in my original world, the name was known but not many people understood it well
It’s not unreasonable that mom doesn’t know Aikido
“Aikido is a martial art that aims to subdue the opponent by using their own force. However, it’s not limited to unarmed or one-on-one situations, it can also be effective with weapons or against multiple opponents, so it doesn’t deviate from Yato-sama’s wish to “protect”.”
“But, isn’t it dangerous?”
“Of course it is. But it depends on the school, but compared to other martial arts, there is not much sparring. Rather, it focuses on how to move in daily life, so I think there will be fewer injuries if you learn it well.”
“Will Yato-kun’s return time be delayed?”
“Tsuki-sama, I will carefully examine and find a dojo that meets your requirements.”
“「・・・・・・」”
“I recommend Aikido as a martial art that only subdues the villains who attack Yato-sama, and doesn’t hurt the opponent from your side. And it also refines your movements and makes your actions beautiful. Furthermore…”
“「Furthermore?」”
I didn’t miss Rei-san’s words as she leaned her face towards mom and Tsuki-nee (You can see Yato-sama’s hakama appearance)
And the moment they heard that, they shivered as if an electric current ran through them… and glanced at me
And then…
“「Yato-kun kyun!! Let’s do Aikido!!」”
I was a bit amazed at the two of them who said that with the momentum of attacking me
No, it’s fine, right?
If I only look at the result, I got the best outcome, so it’s fine
It’s fine, but…
As a result of the persuasion (?), I decided to learn Aikido
◆
Today, the day after the stormy persuasion, I decided to take a day off from the nursery
I agreed to learn Aikido three days a week, so I can’t go every day until then
Rei-san has to make a list of dojos that I can go to while I’m in a safe place (Rei-san’s side), and the nursery kids have to get used to the days when I don’t come (apparently)
Physically, I’m fine, but mentally, I felt a bit tired, so I decided to take a break quietly
Mom was fine, but Tsuki-nee looked lonely… but there’s nothing I can do about that
By the way, my sister goes to the nursery by bus on the days when I don’t attend
(I see…)
By the way, I’m watching TV with Rei-san right now
The program I’m watching is a debate show about various things related to men
Today’s topic is “Is men’s social advancement good or bad?”
The proponents of social advancement argue that it will boost the economy by revitalizing the workplace, and that denying it is discriminatory in itself
The opponents of social advancement argue that it will increase the possibility of men being victimized by incidents, and that they should focus on family and marriage if they have time
Well, this kind of thing has both merits and demerits
But for me, I can benefit from both opinions, and it’s a valuable program that allows me to gain general knowledge in this world
(Wide shows are good too… but they seem to narrow my perspective…)
I was thinking about such things while staring at the TV blankly
