A short story by Shūgorō Yamamoto

“And if you say you cannot forgive, then what will you do?” “I cannot go on living like this. Either I must cut down Jūsuke, or else be cut down myself. Unless the matter is settled one way or the other, I cannot preserve my honor.” “In other words, you mean to fight a duel?” Uemori Matajūrō looked upon the face of his nephew for the first time. “It is only after enduring as much as I could. Any further, and I will be branded a coward.” On the boy’s finely flushed face there appeared an expression of resolve, as if it had been carved there with a chisel.
