She had painstakingly raised her Honmaru to the highest level. Codenamed Qingyu, she possessed immense spiritual power, exceptional skill in formations, and an extreme weakness for white-haired men.
The government introduced a program in which Saniwa could serve as proxies for other Honmaru. On the surface, it was meant to give Saniwa from different Honmaru a chance to learn from one another. In reality, they had secretly added A-rank Saniwa to the program, rigging the selection so they could investigate Honmaru suspected of mistreating their swords.
Unlike her peers assigned to Honmaru of the same rank, Qingyu was given an F-rank Honmaru for her first assignment. It had few swords and was small in scale. She had assumed this investigation would be a max-level expert strolling into a beginner village, an easy job. Who could have guessed...
[There are too few Touken Ranbu fanfics on their own. Most are crossovers, where Touken Ranbu is just the protagonist's starting background or one of several settings.
This is a Touken Ranbu-only fanfic, written to satisfy my own cravings.
The writing is amateurish, and there are quite a few author-invented details.
The main references are the Touken Ranbu anime and game. Everything else is the author's own invention.]
[PS: Terms such as the Time Government, corrupted swords, and Saniwa being spirited away by swords after their real names are exposed are all fan-created concepts. These things are not part of the actual Touken Ranbu setting. This story uses only the first two concepts; there is no setting where swords can spirit away a Saniwa just because their name was exposed.]
