Ogata didn't really want to kill all four drunkards.
After all, these four drunkards were just drunk and temporarily confused.
So Ogata turned the sword in his hand and pointed the back of the sword towards them.
"Let me help you four wake up."
After that, Ogata held the knife and lantern in his hands and walked slowly towards the four drunkards...
…
…
The battle started suddenly.
It ended quickly too.
From the beginning of the battle to the end of the battle, less than a minute passed before Origon knocked all four drunkards to the ground.
Ogata is also a samurai after all, and has been practicing swordsmanship since he was a child.
If he can't beat four drunk farmers, then Ogata can have a caesarean section to apologize.
Using the dragon's tail of Sakakihara's Itto style four times in a row, Ogata knocked all four drunkards to the ground.
Because Ogata used the back of the knife, the four drunkards only suffered from pain and lay on the ground like shrimps rolling in pain, but in fact they did not suffer any serious injuries.
"Get out of here quickly!"
Ogata shouted at the four drunkards again.
These four drunkards were finally woken up by Ogata.
They stood up hurriedly, helped each other and left here.
It wasn't until these four drunkards left that Ogata sheathed his sword.
He just defeated 4 people in one go, and Ogata also gained a lot of experience points.
Because he was only focused on beating these four drunkards, Ogata didn't pay attention to how many experience points he got when defeating these four strong men.
All I know is that he just gained a total of 80 points of personal experience and 80 points of Sakakibara Itto-ryu experience.
Currently, Ogata's personal level is: LV8 (130/700)
Sakakihara Itto-ryu level: 4th Dan (170/700)
After sheathing the sword, Ogata turned his head and looked at the woman beside him who had just been rescued by him.
"Are you okay?"
The woman nodded excitedly: "I'm fine."
Then he bowed to Ogata and said:
"Master Samurai, thank you very much just now!"
"It's okay." Ogata smiled, "It's just some small things that I can do."
Only now did Ogata finally have the opportunity to take a serious look at the woman he had just rescued.
This woman has fine wrinkles at the corners of her eyes and mouth, and her skin is well maintained. She seems to be only 28 or 9 years old.
She was wearing a bright red kimono, white socks on her feet, and wooden clogs.
She has good facial features, and although her appearance is not that stunningly beautiful, she is quite attractive.
Ogata couldn't help but thought to himself:
——No wonder those four drunk men just teased her in the street...
"My name is Asaki."
The woman who called herself Asaki introduced herself.
"Sir Samurai, if it's convenient, could you tell me your name?"
"Okay." Ogata said happily, "My name is Ogata. Ogata Issei."
"Ogata-sama!"
Asaki suddenly approached Ogata, so frightened that Ogata couldn't help but shrink his neck back.
Asaki's eyes seemed to be filled with little stars.
Asaki looked straight at Ogata with her eyes that were shining with little stars.
"If possible, could you please come and guard my concubine's izakaya?"
"……ha?"
Ogata looked at Asaki in front of him in confusion.
"To be honest, I am the owner of the izakaya called 'Ryuya' not far away."
"It's a small shop that has only been open for less than a month."
"Since it opened, there have been drunken customers or some hooligans making trouble there almost every day."
"This concubine is deeply troubled by this."
"I have always wanted to hire a capable person to guard the izakaya so that the drunkards and scoundrels would no longer dare to act arrogantly."
"But no matter how hard I look, I can't find a suitable candidate."
"People with high abilities don't want to be the guards of an izakaya."
"Those who are willing to be the guards of izakayas have average abilities."
"Until now I met you, Ogata-sama!"
Speaking of this, the "little stars" in Asaki's eyes became more numerous and brighter.
"I just saw with my own eyes how you, Ogata-sama, knocked down those four drunkards with your smooth skills!"
"If there is someone as capable as you, Ogata-sama, sitting in my izakaya, no one will dare to cause trouble again!"
"Lord Ogata, would you like to be the guard of my izakaya? You just need to come at night!"
Ogata listened to Asaki's words quietly.
After Asaki finished speaking, Ogata said helplessly in his heart:
——Guard... I mean, you want to hire me as a security guard...
Ogata always felt that security work would be very tiring.
You have to stay in the store all the time, and when someone makes trouble, you have to take action...
However, this also has advantages. If you are a guard of an izakaya, you should be able to encounter many opportunities to gain experience points.
But you might offend someone when you try to stop the riot.
After weighing the pros and cons, Ogata decided to give up.
After all, if you want to gain experience points, you can just compete with the brothers in the Sakakibara Sword Hall.
Competing with fellow swordsmen at Sakakibara Sword Hall will not only gain a lot of experience points, but also avoid unnecessary trouble.
Just when Ogata decided to rebuff Asaki—
"I will thank you well! I will pay you a salary every day! Although it is not much, you see the money is enough..."
"Please let me guard the door of your izakaya."
Before he heard the end, Ogata had already reached out and took the money bag handed over by Asaki.
…
…
Although Ogata really wanted to find a side job to make his life richer.
But Ogata would still stay away from jobs that would be tiring.
Being a "security guard" at an izakaya - this kind of job sounds very tiring.
Ogata originally wanted to reject Asaki directly.
But the money she gave me was too much.
…
…
It was better to choose the day than to hit it, so Ogata decided to start work immediately.
Following Asaki's footsteps, he turned left and right on the country road, and a small and exquisite izakaya gradually appeared in front of Ogata's eyes.
On the door plaque of the izakaya, two Chinese characters - Ryuya - are written in flying colors.
Looking at the two Chinese characters on the door plaque, Ogata praised: "These characters are really well written."
"I commissioned this to be written by a friend of mine who is good at calligraphy." Asaki smiled and said, "Come on, Ogata-sama, let's go in."
"My concubine's izakaya is not big. The only people working there are me and another waitress."
"She is greeting guests inside right now. From tonight onwards, we are all partners, so let's get to know each other tonight."
As soon as Asaki finished speaking, Oubang heard the sound of porcelain being broken from inside the house.
and a man's shout.
Upon hearing these two voices, the expressions of Ogata and Asaki both changed.
"It seems..." Ogata said with a bitter smile, "On my first day at work, I have a difficult task to begin. Miss Asaki, I will go into the house first."
After saying that, Ougon held on to the two sabers on his waist and quickly rushed into the house.
The flow room is not large, with only 6 tables in total.
Among these 6 tables, only one is occupied by guests.
The only guests at this table were three drunkards who drank until their whole faces turned red.
Next to these three drunkards, stood a petite girl who looked to be only about 14 years old.
