CH 141

–After the third game with a break, we went on to the fourth game. The opponent was E-Class, where Basleigh-sensei was the assistant homeroom teacher.

“Uoorraaaaaaaa! Zatz-kun, show some guts!”

“Even if you say, I’m too tired to do that!”

“I’m telling you, it’s all about guts!?”

“Will you please don’t be absurd!?”

Well, Basleigh-sensei was getting excited like this, but the E-Class seemed to have low physical strength as a whole, and we’re able to get past the three of them.

The girl who fought me at the top of the class was Eburi, a girl with frizzy hair whose one eye was hidden. She came at me to end the fight early, but she had no power or speed and was clearly tired.

“Dragon Fang!”

“What, w-which one ……? Aaahhhh!?”

And well, I did Tigre-sensei’s signature left-right feint and the game was won in no time at all.

If you have the speed, you can do it backwards and forwards, and there was no way she could have seen through it on her first time seeing it, so I had her retire early.

I took the liberty of naming it, but since it strikes almost simultaneously on both sides, I decided to call it this technique, thinking it would be like biting. Tigre-sensei laughed without saying a word, and I could see Sarge in the tent, happy.

The second, who is Makina fought the same schoolgirl, Onette, and beat her easily too.

“Kuh …… I can’t believe that I can’t hit her even though I’m using my skill!”

“Your aim is too obvious from the way you’re looking. Compared to Sarge’s fireball, a wooden arrow with a round ball on the end is not as scary!”

“It gets repelled ……!? If this is how it is–“

They’re overwhelmed from beginning to end like this.

I don’t know what was in it other than honey or something, but to be honest, it was amazing to see her evade and intercept Onette’s weapon, the bow, and jumps next to her with maximum tension.

Onette also had a wooden throwing knife and a shortsword, but she didn’t seem to be able to use half of her abilities in a one-on-one match against Makina.

“Lars-kun, I won!”

“That was amazing, you look like you’re in good shape, maybe it’s because of Reiss?”

“Don’t mention her name.”

“Yeah, okay …… but why are you hugging me?”

“Nfufu.”

…… Because of the high tension, Makina strangely wanted to be next to me. It was a little embarrassing to be sandwiched between Kuderica and whistling from the audience …….

Anyway, Urka also won in the end, not by relying on Spiritual Ars, but by using magic and swords in a good match with Canarl. 

The scene of the match is–

“!”

“Whoa, you can’t beat me with that fire–“

“I knew you’d dodge that way!”

“Ouch!? This guy, even though he’s small!”

“Ogure-san!”

When Canarl avoided the fire, he was hit by Urka, who had already gone around him. However, the damage was not so severe as to make him lose his will to fight, so Canarl counterattacked with his large sword.

But then Urka shouted, and a skeleton appeared from the ground and took the large sword with a white blade.

“No way!?”

“Eeeiiiiiii!”

“Damn, you’re good!”

— It was a back-and-forth battle, and in the end, Urka won with a body shot that went wide. 

I mean, the skeleton does a really good job …… Who would have guessed that it would be two against one. It’s a skill effect, so I guess it didn’t matter, but even I think it’s unfair. 

Well, Ogure-san the skeleton seems to be a gentleman who read the air and attacked only when Urka gave the order. I’m really curious to know what he was like before he died.

The battle between B and D Class on the opposite side ended with B-Class. We had three points, B-Class had two points, and C, D, and E had one point.

Even if we lose to B-Class, we get four points and 65 points, and B-Class gets five points and 63 points, so there’s no need to push ourselves anymore, but B-Class looks at us like they’re ready to go.

“Now that the fourth game between B and D and A and E is over, it’s time for the fifth and final game!”

“The third place will be decided by who wins here, C-Class or D-Class.”

“E-Class! Don’t give up yet! Now, let’s go to the last match of the Indiscriminate Combat Competition! It’s not the points that matter! It’s the feeling that you gave it your all.”

“She’s so excited. I don’t know why she’s crying, though …… Well, never mind, let’s decide the order, shall we?”

When I said that, Ryuuze folded his arms, looked at the field, and opened his mouth.

“I’ll go. It seems like someone is waiting, after all?”

In the field, Naru was already looking at us with a dagger in each hand. I don’t know why she cares about Ryuuze, but it’s best to leave her to it.

“I’m counting on you, Ryuuze”

“Yeah, she avoids me for some reason.”

“I wonder why? Good luck with that, Ryuuze-kun.”

“Oh, I can’t afford to lose to Urka, after all!”

And with that, Ryuuze carries the wooden large sword to the field. While Naru watches Ryuuze who’s coming closer, clutches the dagger firmly. That time it was a three-part braid, but today she had her purple hair pulled up in a bun. The glasses are still in place.

“Did I keep you waiting?”

“I just stood up. Now we finally have a chance to fight in person.”

“Hey, what did I do to you?”

“……! Kuh …… so you don’t remember ……! Okay, you win, I’ll tell you.”

“I don’t know if I’ve ever talked to you before …… Well, if all I have to do is win, that makes it easier!”

“It’s kind of like meeting up for a date and fighting! I’m not jealous of you, but Naru-chan seems to hold something against Ryuuze-kun.”

“Oh, right, I should ask Tigre-sensei about dinner tonight!”

“Damn ittttttttt ……!”

The broadcasts aside, Ryuuze who’s laughing holds the large sword ready, and Naru holds the dagger in her other hand and crosses it in front of her chest. I wonder if she’s going to rush in while defending herself? Just as I was thinking about this, Tigre-sensei gave the signal.

“Begin!”

At the same time, both of them shouted.

“[Magic Sword: Fire Sword]!”

“[Freeze]!”

“Oh! Naru-chan froze the dagger with her skill and created an ice blade! I can’t believe it!”

“This might be dangerous! Tigre-sensei, please be careful!”

“Leave it to me.”

Tigre-sensei narrowed his eyes and looked at the two. A burning sword and a freezing dagger. If the two collide, Verna-sensei and Tigre-sensei may be anticipating a steam explosion, although it may be small in scale.

“…… If you won’t come, I’ll come to you, okay?”

“……”

The first one to move was Ryuuze. How will Naru move ……!

One of the highlight scene? Ryuuze vs. Naru!

Thank you for reading!

[Afterword Theater]

“Now then, I wonder what is Naru’s intention!”

It might not be as big a deal as you think ……

“Her underwear may have been seen or something ……”

Ahhhhhh ……
