Otaku Witch

"Alright, Battosai, I have finished teaching. The sisters both have quite good talent, especially the elder one. The Sanada couple is really lucky to have such an excellent pair of daughters."

Ten minutes later, Yagyū Jubei found Dorothy waiting at the village entrance, and she said this.

To this, the Homebody Witch agreed as well.

For weak witches, having many children is like gambling with their lives. With their mediocre talent, they can already see the end of their lives, with little hope for significant changes. However, unborn children have unlimited possibilities. If one turns out to be a genius, it could potentially benefit the entire family.

Of course, much like how gamblers often meet bad ends, witch families who have children with this kind of profit mindset mostly end up losing everything. After all, the probability of a little witch's talent mutation is even lower than hitting a jackpot in a game.

However, the world is vast, and there will always be some Kings of Luck. The Sanada family is exactly that. Not only did they draw an SSR eldest daughter with their two R cards, but even the younger daughter is an SR with strong potential. Such luck in pregnancy is unprecedented.

And from the brief contact earlier, this family is not the kind to treat their children as tools. The whole family saves and lives frugally, all to invest in their daughters. Such a family indeed has a certain chance of achieving class elevation.

Of course, it's only a chance. After all, an undeveloped genius is worthless, and in Japan's current twisted environment, it's clearly not suitable for rootless civilian geniuses to grow.

Although the Sanada family has saved enough tuition fees for their daughter's swordsmanship lessons, this amount of money, once it enters those kendo dojos, might only afford basic techniques. As for further breathing techniques or Secret Sword Ogi, that's out of the question; it's not just about the money anymore.

"How much did you teach?"

Looking at Miss Sword Master in front of her, Dorothy asked curiously.

"Of course, I taught everything. The Sanada family gave me all their savings, and naturally, I should teach those sisters everything I know."

Yagyū Jubei said matter-of-factly.

"But time was indeed tight. I only managed to disguise basic sword moves on the spot. As for the Secret Sword Ogi and such, I wrote them in the Sword Manual. Once the sisters master the basic techniques and their swordsmanship skills reach a certain level, they naturally will understand. Those two kids are indeed good seeds; the Sanada family will surely succeed."

She said while smiling, feeling happy for her friend's children's excellence.

The Homebody Witch was a bit surprised watching Miss Sword Master.

Although she was pleased with this outcome, if she thought from the Yagyū family's perspective, Yagyū Jubei was truly a spendthrift.

The reason why the Chinese Aristocratic Families have been able to firmly govern Japan Island for tens of thousands of years is not only due to their monopoly on land resources, but also their monopoly on knowledge and power.

No matter whether it's swordsmanship or Yin Yang Technique, the basics of these powers and knowledge might still be passed down, but when it comes to more advanced Secret Sword or secret techniques, there's an unspoken identity threshold for learning them.

The Chinese Clan could easily learn them, but civilians must endure numerous hardships, akin to acquiring sacred texts, and might even have to sign various unequal contracts like indenture or marriage agreements.

In short, for a civilian genius on Japan Island to acquire more advanced magical power, there are basically only two paths: one is to climb Monster Mountain, the other is to become a dog for the Chinese Clan.

It's said that wealth doesn't last beyond three generations, but among the stronger Japanese Hua clans, some have stood powerful for tens of thousands of years, leveraging the power and knowledge they control to continuously attract civilian geniuses to join them.

It's rumored that in the true Japan of the Eastern Universe, the great families even have a "son-in-law raising" system. Here on Japan Island, where everyone is a witch, marrying in is even easier.

But now, Miss Sword Master has directly sold out the foundation of her Yagyū family roots, truly not caring about losing the family land.

"Battosai, thank you for your guidance. I finally understand the principle of it's better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish."

Yagyū Jubei suddenly bowed to Dorothy and said.

She glanced back one last time at the Sanada family behind her, deeply moved.

She once saved the life of the Sanada Wife, but she hadn't completely saved them after all. The family continued to be bullied in the past, with a hard life.

But from now on it would be different. Once those two sisters grow up, no one will dare to bully their family lightly, relying on their blades.

Gold Coins are good things, but in this world, just money isn't enough. You must also have blades; truth lies above swords and Magic Bullets.

"I also told the sisters to pass on this swordsmanship to more people in need once they learn it. I hope all oppressed civilians can have the power to protect themselves. This is the true essence of the Living Blade in the Yagyū Shinkage-ryū."

Miss Sword Master said this.

The fire in her eyes was flickering, and Sword Intent emanated from her. The originally stagnant state of her swordsmanship due to the new understanding had its bottleneck loosened, and with a little more refinement, she would soon achieve a new breakthrough.
