Chapter 109 109 – The Fight has Began

Elise waited in front of an adventure supply store and stared at the tournament chart attached to the wall. Such flyers are displayed in various corners of the city as advertisements.

THE BIG EIGHT OF THE KOZLOV FAMILY TOURNAMENT

Trish Adeshida Vs. Elise Fairchild

Stefan Kovalev Vs. Oleg Ivanov

Renee Emilien Vs. Yua Nakagami

Leonov Dmitrievich Vs. Olga

The female warrior gulped. If she did something stupid at tomorrow’s event, she would be the laughing stock of the crowd. Maybe she was more afraid of it than the pain she would feel in the match.

Fortunately, the people passing by in the shopping center did not recognize her. So, she can still try to calm down. The ones who knew she was the tournament participant were the rich people at the banquet yesterday.

Yua came out of the shop carrying a medium-size cloth sack. “Sorry I asked you to wait outside, Elise. We’re fellow competitors, so I don’t want you to know about my plans.”.

“It’s okay.” Elise shook her head slowly, answered by Mona’s barking in her arms.

“And thank you very much, Elise.” Yua sighed, starting to walk away from the place. “You’re willing to lend me money to buy all of this. If I knew that first, second, and third place in the qualifiers would earn me money, I would have tried to be at the forefront.”

Instead of answering, Elise was silent. Her lips twitched, and her gaze was fixed on the street. Yua, who noticed that, put on a faint smile.

“You’re coming with me because you want to tell me something, right?” Yea guessed. “Just say it, Elise. We’re already friends, right?”

It still took a while before Elise finally responded. “Don’t you think maybe what you said to Renee yesterday was too much?”

“Really?” Yua’s smile grew wider. “Ah, that’s Olga.”

The kunoichi quickened her pace to approach that red-haired woman that sat in an open-air restaurant.

Without asking permission, Yua occupied one of the seats opposite Olga. However, the waffle seller was unfazed and continued to taste her food.

“Doing some research for your waffles?” Yua looked at the several plates of pastry in front of Olga, then the kunoichi took one of them and ate it without asking.

Elise was taken aback by the impolite behavior.

Not getting a reply, Yua spoke again. “I heard you’re aiming for the first prize money to expand your business? As a fighter….”

“I know what you’re going to do, young lady.” Olga sipped her coffee. “I won’t be affected by that mental war you’re doing.”

“Hey, I just wanted to chat with you.” Yua grinned, stuffing the rest of the food she stole into her mouth. “I’m also interested in this place.”

“Do what you want.”

The kunoichi called the waiter, while the confused Elise chose to sit there too.

“Isn’t it too soon to attack Olga mentally, Yua?” Raymund chuckled. “You two have to win in the first round before you can meet.”

Yua didn’t answer her master but ordered a pie and lemonade. Elise shook her head when offered a menu. The uncomfortable situation made her not have any appetite at all.

“I’ve met quite a few ninjas in my life,” Olga spoke before Yua opened her mouth again. “They are very different from you.”

“Is that so?” Yua raised an eyebrow. “My ninja friend said that I look similar to the kunoichis in his village. Is it possible that you mean that my behavior is different from other ninjas?”

“No.” Olga swallowed the food in her mouth without looking at the kunoichi. “They die, and you live.”

Elise felt the sensation of being electrified all over her body. Yua also felt the same way.

The murderous aura emitted by the red-haired woman made both of them hold their breath.

“Just kidding.” Olga lifted her face with a smile. “I’m just a waffle seller.”

Yua flinched as the maid brought her a drink. Because of the high tension, she didn’t pay attention to her surroundings.

“You lost completely in this psychological war, Yua.” Raymund chuckled.

Elise glanced at her two friends, who were now silent. The female warrior felt more uncomfortable and wanted to just run away from that place.

“I will beat you, Renee Emilien!!!” A distant scream broke the silence.

Renee walked over to the table, ignoring Leonov, who kept yelling at her, or the people watching her.

“Hey, everyone.” Renee waved her hand, greeted with a cheerful tone. “I went for a walk to relax. What a coincidence that I met the three of you here.” The blonde-haired woman widened her smile as she looked at the kunoichi. “And you are here…”

Renee’s speech was cut short by Yua dousing the blonde-haired woman, making Elise flinch and stand up from her seat, attracting the attention of passers-by.

With her mouth wide open, Renee looked at her body, which was wet with that sticky liquid. The white tunic she was wearing was slightly transparent and showed her bra.

And the kunoichi was still smiling.

“What are you doing!?” Renee tugged at Yua’s clothes, forcing the kunoichi to stand up. “I’ve been trying to be patient with you! Now, I can’t hold back anymore! Tell me, what do you really want!?”

“I just can’t stand you.” The corners of Yua’s lips dropped. Her eyes looked at Renee as if they were looking at something disgusting. “You’re just a nuisance, ungrateful selfish bitch.”

Renee was about to punch the kunoichi in the face, but Elise caught the blonde-haired woman’s hand.

“Stop it, Renee!!!” Elise kept trying to hold her friend’s hand.

“Leave them alone, Elise.” Raymund gave instructions. “It’s just Yua’s way of toying with her opponent’s mind. It’s not personal.”

Elise ignored her master’s words and kept trying to separate Renee from the kunoichi. The female warrior glanced at Olga, hoping for help.

“Now that I think about it. There’s no point in interrupting them.” Olga got up from the chair while sipping the rest of her coffee. “It would be better if my competitors destroy each other here. If they can’t fight anymore and I win in the first round, I will go straight to the final.”

Elise’s chin dropped as Olga just walked away from that place.

Renee kept screaming and trying to free herself from Elise. The commotion brought people together. They wanted to check what happened.

Meanwhile, Yua took a few steps back and spread her arms. “Come on, Renee Emilien! Hit me right now!”

“Die, you cunt!!!” Renee’s voice sounded like the roar of a beast.
