I Reincarnated as Mei in Honkai Impact 3

Chapter 16 Houmu Sword Saint

Kendo Club President: "Holy crap."

The president instinctively raised his knife to block, but suddenly felt his hand go heavy and almost lost his grip on the wooden knife.

Seeing that her horizontal slash had been blocked, Mei instantly sheathed her sword and changed to a thrust.

The kendo club president was indeed quite skilled, dodging Mei's attack with a quick movement.

Seeing that Mei had a weakness, he immediately launched a thrust.

Mei twisted the knife in her hand and struck the opponent's knife, deflecting the thrust.

The sound of wooden swords clashing echoed throughout the dojo.

The kendo club president grew increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed. What kind of fighting style was this? So fierce! Shouldn't it be a normal exchange of probing blows before a surprise attack?

Mei's attacks were relentless, and the kendo club president had no chance to retaliate.

"Hiss, Raiden Mei is terrifying."

"Hey, they're just letting her have it. Didn't you see the president hasn't made a move yet?"

The onlookers in the audience started discussing it.

"No, I need to create some distance first," the kendo club president thought.

Mei launched a flurry of horizontal slashes, cuts, and thrusts, gaining the upper hand, while the kendo club president continued to retreat.

Mei chuckled inwardly: "Trying to create distance? Go eat shit."

Mei pressed closer and closer, her grip on the knife tightening as she wielded it with both hands, her movements wide and sweeping.

The kendo club president broke out in a cold sweat. To outsiders, Mei's wide-ranging attacks seemed to have many flaws, but those who truly understood swordsmanship knew that although Mei attacked with wide-ranging attacks, her footwork was incredibly steady, and her sword-wielding posture was also very tricky. If the opponent countered, she could immediately sheathe her sword to defend.

The president of the kendo club could only passively defend for a time.

Suddenly, Mei raised both hands above her head, as if launching a vertical slash attack.

"Not good!" the kendo club president thought to himself, then grabbed the sides of the blade with both hands and held it horizontally in front of him.

Mei's sword suddenly fell, and just as it was about to strike the Kendo Club President's blade, she abruptly reversed her stance—this was a reverse attack! The subsequent sword strike followed a graceful arc, instantly changing from a vertical slash to a horizontal one.

Caught off guard, the kendo club president was slashed in the waist, taking maximum damage. He instantly knelt down, like a shrimp.

"What happened to your kidneys? Why is the president kneeling?"

Everyone was talking about it for a while.

The kendo club president looked up at her, and said with shame, "Raiden Mei, you have no sportsmanship."

Mei looked at him and retorted, "The battle began the moment we stepped onto the stage, didn't it?"

The president of the kendo club thought for a moment and nodded.

Mei continued, "I didn't drug you or anything to make you feel bad, did I? And I defeated you fair and square on stage, right?"

President: "…………"

Mei packed her things and prepared to leave. Before leaving, she only said one thing to the kendo club president: "If you're weak, practice more. To tell you the truth, I only used seven-tenths of my strength."

Mei left, leaving only the president inside to think.

"Am I really that bad at the game???"

In no time, Raiden Mei became famous at the school.

When Mei returned home, the entire villa was deserted and quiet.

"Hmm, Raiden Ryoma hasn't come back yet." Mei said, somewhat disappointed.

For Mei, her adoptive father Raiden Ryoma, she always longed for him to spend more time with her whenever she came home.

Mei made some noodles for herself that evening and ate them as is.

She then changed out of her black JK uniform into a men's outfit: a blue trench coat paired with black trousers, and went out for a casual stroll.

Mei walked onto the street and looked at Changkong City, which was still very lively.

Upon seeing a shopping mall, Mei suddenly remembered, "Wait, I need to buy some things. Raiden Ryoma will be going to jail in a year, so I need to prepare."

After that, Mei went on a shopping spree at the department store.

Mei bought several pots and pans at the mall, followed by a large amount of snacks, various men's and women's clothing and accessories, several of the largest limited edition Houmu dolls, and finally, several kitchen knives, several buckets of cooking oil, and several bags of rice.

Finally, Mei paid some money to have the mall staff deliver it to her home.

"Yes, yes, that's fine, thank you~" the movers thanked them.

Mei was very satisfied to see the living room filled with supplies. She summoned her black sword with her right hand, opened the storage space that belonged to the black sword, and stuffed all the supplies into the black sword, leaving only dust in the living room, indicating that there had been goods here.

By the time everything was sorted out, it was already past midnight.

"Phew, time for a shower and bed~"

After taking a shower, I went to bed.

The day was over, and with that, Mei fell asleep.

The next day, Mei arrived at school early and after a few classes, she was told that she was the president of the kendo club.

Mei was quite surprised by this news, and then she went to hand over the work.

Mei continued her life at Chiba Academy as usual, so while she felt a little lonely and bored, it wasn't a big problem. Every noon, Mei would go to the rooftop to eat.

The scenery was lovely, the air was cool and breezy, and there was no one to bother us. It was a pleasant and relaxing time.

After Mei became the president of the kendo club, she was always the last to leave, checking the arrangement of props and the cleanliness of the club.

After Mei finished her check-up today, she was about to go home when she suddenly noticed a yellow-clad doll behind her. It had a yellow bow on its head, one eye was blindfolded and wrapped with a black ribbon, and it had a bright smile with white teeth.

Mei's pupils contracted sharply, clearly surprised.

"you……"

The giant Houmu doll looked at Mei and said, "Roar~ Roar~ Hello, little girl, I am the Houmu Sword Saint!"

Mei Yi: “…………”

Mei was surprised and didn't react at first, but the plot quickly became familiar. She remembered watching the Thunder Theater on Bilibili before, and soon she knew who the Houmu in front of her was.

But Mei was completely dumbfounded when she heard the Homu Sword Saint's self-introduction.

Is this really my father, the Thunder Dragon Horse? Where is my father's majestic image? Where is that deep and resonant voice?

If you didn't know her identity, it would be fine. But once you did, Mei's toes started snapping at her shoes.

Mei's lips twitched, but she still answered politely, "Ahem, hello, Houmu Sword Saint, I'm Raiden Mei."

"Hmph~, I heard you're the newly appointed president. How about a spar with me?"

The Homu Sword Saint pointed his wooden sword at Mei.

Mei looked at the Houmu Sword Saint in front of her and smiled from the bottom of her heart. It was clearly full of love for his daughter, but it was also so childish. But that's what makes it so admirable!

Mei picked up the wooden sword beside her and solemnly said, "Hokushin Itto-ryu, Raiden Mei, reporting for duty!"

The attacks from both sides intersected, the tips of their blades probing each other again and again, the wooden swords leaving afterimages as they swung.

The wooden swords clashed and flashed, seemingly blending together. The crisp sound of the wooden swords colliding echoed continuously in the dojo, as the two figures moved forward and backward at different times.

The last wooden sword flew out and landed outside the arena with a "bang".

"Ha! You lost!"

The wooden sword of the Houmu Sword Saint was pressed against Mei's neck.

Mei lay down on the ground, panting, and said, "You're strong, but I'll definitely beat you next time!"

"Hey, you're not bad either."

When the Sword Saint saw Raiden Mei lying on the ground, he felt a lump in his throat and finally couldn't help but say, "Hey~ Raiden Mei, mind your image."

Mei smiled awkwardly and replied, "Oh, okay, okay."

"Raiden Mei, you have great talent. With more practice, you can reach an even higher level."

"But it's getting late, you should go back now," said the Sword Saint.

Mei looked at the Houmu Sword Saint curiously and asked, "Okay, but will you still be here tomorrow?"

"Roar~ I'll always be here as long as you want me to," said the Sword Saint, arms crossed, looking arrogant.

Mei slowly walked towards the Houmu Sword Saint.

Seeing Mei approach, the Homu Sword Saint asked in confusion, "Hom~ What's wrong, Raiden Mei-kun?"

Suddenly, Mei leaped onto the chest of the Homu Sword Saint, hugging him tightly and saying, "Thank you!"

Houmu was about to say something when he saw Raiden Mei release him and run quickly toward the door, leaving only a sound behind.

"Houmu Sword Saint, you're so cute!!!" With that, Mei's figure completely disappeared.

After Mei left, the Homu Sword Saint took off his hood, revealing a handsome head of purple hair. This person was none other than Raiden Ryoma.

Thinking about Mei's growth, Raiden Ryoma said with a look of satisfaction, "Mei's swordsmanship has improved a lot. She truly is worthy of being my daughter, Ryoma!"

Little did Mei know that while Raiden Ryoma was indulging in self-pity, Mei already knew his true identity.
