401 Martial Arts Club of Genos ④ - End of Fight

The next day.

When I finished my one-day special business and approached Luu's settlement in the usual time, there was another hour-long noise.

But not in front of the main house this time, in front of Sin-Lu's house.

I thought I'd say hello yesterday because I couldn't face it properly, and when I approached you, I saw that Sin-Lu was surrounded by family and blood.

"Good morning, everyone.... Sin-Lu, good luck yesterday"

The people around me returned my greetings with a smile.

Sin-Lu approaches this way with "Oh, Asta".

"Looks like you had a rough time yesterday. Sheila told me."

"Hey, there's nothing compared to Sin-Lu, who kept comparing his powers for half a day. That's the prize sword, isn't it?

In the hands of Sin-Lu, a truly stunning long sword was held. It is about a metre long and has exquisite sculptures loosened in both metal sheaths and sculptures. It was not until the closing ceremony that we saw that this sword was awarded to Sin-Lu that we returned to the settlement by the forest.

"Sure, it's a fine knife, but - to use it in a giva hunt, it's a little too heavy. If I were as big as my father, I'd be just fine."

And it was Rudd-Lou who snuck up from beyond the pedestrian walls.

Towards you, Sin-Lu nods back "um".

"It's hard to handle a sword with all its blades. I'm going to leave it in the storeroom because it seems like it would be an act of trampling the face of the Marquis of Genos."

It is truly like a folk by the woods.

With a bitter smile, I decided to say hello to Rudd-Lou as well.

"Good luck with Rudd-Lou, too. It must have been a celebration at the Royal Palace yesterday, right? What was the castle like in Genos?

"Hmm? It was something - a building, but I don't know. Plus, there's too many humans, and I'm losing my mind."

After the martial arts, they were invited to the Castle of Genos to participate in a celebration of the winners. It was more customary for the top winners of the Martial Arts Association to be invited to that celebration, where, once again, they received a congratulatory and silver coin award from Marquis Marquis Malstein of Genos.

"I just couldn't eat it. If that was it, that Vulcus or Siri-Low thing would have tasted better at all. Hey, Sin-Lu?

"Right. But I guess that's because we're not used to something called aristocratic food. Some of the dishes I couldn't help but eat."

Sin-Lu was the usual agitation.

From what I've seen, there's no sign of trauma anywhere. It's a sin-lou as usual, settled and serene.

"Speaking of which, there was a nobleman there named Raylis, wasn't there? Were you able to reconcile with him?

"Mm-hmm. It seemed like a much clearer look. … However, they insisted that I attend the fight next year."

"Hmm? But if you're not talking about clearing up resentment or something like that, why don't you?

"Oh. Maybe it's like I challenge Rud-Lew at the harvest festival every time"

Then Rudd-Lou came and said, "So-so."

"Geor-Zaza, I'll definitely beat you to the end next year, or he was barking. I have no idea how interested I am in such a cramped force."

"Right. If I hadn't had my helmet broken in the end, too, I'm sure I would have lost. That's when I finally got a decent look at them. … but minus that, I think Mel Fried is a big force."

"Uh, is he good at handling two knives? You know, the people of the South would have laughed if they could have fought more interesting with an axe."

Apparently at the celebration festival we had the opportunity to exchange words with different people.

So Rud-Lew looked back at me and said, "Yes."

"No, you were asking the daughter of the people of the South to tell you the story. The story of the people of the North was clearly conveyed to a bunch of women named Chiffon-Cher, and she said there was nothing wrong with it.

"Oh, Deal was there, too. Okay, thanks."

"And the daughter of the people of the east said something, too. Um... thanks for the good food all the time, or something like that."

"That must be Arishna. We were both talking about being invited to the VIP table, so I guess we even decided to join the celebration.... but I'm talking about daughters and stuff, but those two are probably older than Rud-Lew, right?

"I don't know. My daughter is my daughter."

Turning that way, Rudd-Lou tongued badly.

"Whatever it was, it was funny for me to watch. Lara, don't even ask my dad to stop. He just popped up at Sin-Lu's."

"No, that's..." Sin-Lu said when he put red on his cheek, "What am I?" A loud voice flew from side to side.

Lara-Luu, armed with a ponytail as usual, stood outside the hedge with a red face.

"How long have you been chatting? Asta, Rayna, the sisters are so ready to wait in their luggage?

"Oh, I'm sorry.... Lala-Lou too, good luck yesterday"

"Nothing, I'm not tired of anything!

And, with an angry look on his face, he is the Lara-Luu who makes his face redder.

Looking sideways at you, Rudd-Lou snorted "Heh".

"This guy broke my dad's dick, so he scolded me till I cried later, huh? Well, that's true. I promised nobility that I wouldn't leave my seat, but I imitated it on my own."

"... Ugh."

"Besides, Sin-Lu knocked everyone down with no scratches, so why did he have to worry so much? Every time Sin-Lu comes out, he's praying to the woods with a crying face."

"Ugh, you're telling me! Idiot Rudd!"

Lara-Lew grabbed by Rud-Lew after a furious hairy day, but both wrists were caught lightly by a brilliant hunter's brother.

"Even in the castle of Genos, this guy, Sin-Lu, won't try to stay away from me at all while I'm stuck, will he? Then the nobleman's daughter should come closer. Mel Fried's partner said," You're a young lady. "

"Wow!," said Lara-Luu, rarely, his mean brother laughing at the pieces.

I'm sorry to hear that, Sin-Lu. Surrounded by a large number of blood clans, Sin-Luu looked so red that he couldn't beat Lara-Luu.

"Well, then it's time for us to leave. You all work in the morning, don't you? After business there will be a study group in the main house, so if you are free, I'll see you then."

So I decided to take care of things for Sin-Lu.

The divided people scatter as much as they can to get each job back on track, and Tari-Lu also smiles and meets back home.

All that was left were the haughty brothers and sisters and Sin-Lu.

"Was Raina-Lou and Vina-Lou on duty today? I'll wait at the entrance, so I was wondering if you could call me?

Lara-Lew said, "Hmm!," he snorted, then shook Rudd-Lou's fingertips off.

That's how I finally get a glimpse of Sin-Lu's face, and then I run out to the main house.

"Rudd-Loo, I'm sorry if I made a lot of fun of Lara-Lu"

"Hmm? I don't know about Lara and Sin-Lu. I know, so you don't have to hide anything, do you? Even Sin-Lu won't be looking at the other women."

"... that's why it's not a good idea to tear up your family"

And, uncommonly, when Sin-Luu complained, Rud-Luu showed "heh heh heh" and white teeth.

"I'll be patient until Lara turns fifteen. If I give you the wedding, no one will make fun of you."

"It's only been a year and a half for Lara-Lew to be 15, and there's only about Rud-Lew, the kind of person who makes fun of us in the first place"

"Nothing. I'm not making fun of Sin-Lu. Huh? It's funny how it turns bright red right away."

"That's what I'm making fun of."

"Anything at all. I'm glad the women I like feel the same way."

Saying so, Rudd-Lou joined his hands behind his head and returned the chill as he crept.

"I'm hungry, so I was wondering if you'd like me to cook some meat and Poitan. Good luck with your work, Asta."

Only Sin-Lu and I were left on the spot with a red face.

Sin-Luu is sighing as he dazzles Rud-Luu's back as he leaves.

"... I was relieved that Sin-Lu didn't seem to be injured anywhere. You had a really rough day yesterday."

I was still feeling a little short on talking to Sin-Lu, so I tried to call him that.

Sin-Lu nods "umm" as he strokes the splendid long sword sheath in his absence.

"But I'm relieved to be able to do my job. To be honest, it was a battle I didn't think I'd win until the end."

"That armor looks heavy, and the helmet seemed to have bad vision. If it was the usual outfit, would you have won it out without more problems?

"I don't know. In the first place, we're not polishing the arms of our swords to kill humans."

That's what I thought strongly as I watched Sin-Lu fight too.

"Besides, George-Zaza, for example, could have beaten Melfried if he hadn't worn a helmet. But if he wasn't wearing armor, he could have broken his right wrist. And if Melfried had two swords, maybe he'd have figured it out better.... so talking about assumptions doesn't seem to make much sense"

"Yeah, it's an arrangement and it's a power comparison. Does it make any sense that I complained about the arrangement itself?... Anyway, I was so happy that Sin-Lu had won it out to the end."

Then Sin-Lu, whose cheeks were finally reddened, stared at me with a much softer look.

"Speaking of which, Asta and Limi-Lew were a lot louder. Then I could squeeze my strength."

"Yeah? Did they hear us in all that fuss?

"Faint. Hunters also need the power to hear things."

With that said, Sin-Lu has turned to me physically.

"Whatever it is, I'm glad I beat a nobleman named Melfried, too. That man was once said to be as powerful as Ziza-Lou."

"Yeah. So Sanjula was said to be about as powerful as Rud-Lew, right? Then Melfried should be a stronger enemy than Sanjula. Now and in the past, Giza-Lou is supposed to be stronger than Rudd-Lou."

Come on, that's what I said.

"Yet Sin-Lew was able to beat Melfried. That means that in the last few months, Sin-Luu has become as strong as the previous Giza-Lu, right? Sin-Lu sometime gained more power than Sanjula."

"I don't know," Sin-Lu narrows his eyes thoughtfully.

"Like me or Rudd-Lou or Giza -Lou, that guy named Sanjula could be raising his arm. If that's the case, it means I won't be able to do it."

"That's not true. I'm sure you compared Sanjula to the power, and Sin-Lu is the better one to win."

I gave Sin-Lu a laugh as I listened to the sounds of the Rayna-Lu's pulling luggage car called Galagoro on his back.

"Sin-Lu is only sixteen years old. You're a lot younger than Sanjula and Melfried, so I guess Sin-Lu can still build on that, huh?

"Hmmm......"

"Speaking of which, you didn't say proper words of celebration. Congratulations on the win, Sin-Lu. I was so proud that Sin-Lu was able to beat me to the end."

Sin-Lew then lowered his mouth in a less usual way and said quietly, "Thank you."

That didn't feel right to me, as it was an age-appropriate, very unusual smile of sixteen.
