Hashijutsu Episode 3: The Battle With a Fly
Hashijutsu Episode 3: The Battle With a Fly
After winning against the centipede, I began treatment for my index finger. It took a couple of weeks to heal, and I was grateful to the doctor who saved me. Inspired by this experience, I wanted to improve my Hashijutsu techniques but didn’t know how.
While browsing online, I found people discussing a samurai who allegedly caught a fly with chopsticks—Musashi. However, some doubted the story's truth. Intrigued, I decided to try it myself.
One day, a fly buzzed above my dining table during supper. I grabbed my chopsticks and attempted to catch it. Unfortunately, I failed. The fly eluded me, and I lost the battle. I was the loser.
