Chapter 341: First-Round Match 2. Maria and Alo’s Captain Confrontation

Sponsored

"Ooi everyone. The Order of the Black Shadow is Maria’s team that came to play last night so cheer for them. That one is a person kind to beastmen."

When I called out everyone cheered.

The match of mob knights whose names I do not even know became 2-2 and turned into a general-versus-general fight.

Host Giesch called the generals’ names and both armies’ captains went up to the match field.

"The one who came out from the right wearing armor and equipped with two swords is Maria. Everyone cheer."

Maria is equipped with the same armor and dual swords as when she kicked up my crotch.

The opposing Alo Nericott was lightly equipped.

She equipped a bow and instead of armor wore a leather chest guard. The chest guard looks less like armor and more like a tool so the bowstring does not hit the chest. Close to kyudo equipment perhaps.

In medieval England there existed a master of the bow named Robin Hood. Because the legend remains even to modern times her bow skill was considerably excellent I suppose. And perhaps only me but when I hear Robin Hood I have an image of wearing a green hat.

Alo also wears a Robin-like hat.

Alo equipped three quivers on left and right waist and back and each seems to contain about 20 arrows.

At the same time as match start Alo released an arrow while greatly leaping backward.

Even while leaping back the aim is precise.

The arrow flies straight toward Maria’s armor, aiming at the brow.

A narrow match field, it seems ordinary people would have no means, but Maria advanced while deflecting the arrow with her left sword.

Shooting while retreating and advancing while defending were repeated.

Alo trying to take distance and Maria trying to close.

From ability compatibility they cannot release a decisive blow on each other.

"Now then Iria-senshu. Which is advantageous."

"For now even. Alo’s magic power is ’Tracking.’ She imparts magic power to a touched object and tracks that magic power. Tracked magic power can be operated only once."

"In other words what does that mean?"

I know but I dare ask for the other children listening in the spectator seats.

"Look."

The arrow changed direction at a sharp angle and slipped past Maria’s right sword. Maria while arching back stopped the arrow with the hilt of her left sword.

"You may think of it as an ability that releases a once-released arrow again. Other applications will also work but Alo’s combat style is operating arrows."

Because Alo keeps distance while continuously releasing arrows close-range instant-kill Maria is one-sided defense.

However after releasing about 50 arrows Alo’s arrows ran out.

"Oops. Alo-senshu has no more arrows. This is Maria-senshu’s chance."

"No, that is not so. Look."

"Eh? Are? Even though the opponent’s arrows ran out Maria-senshu does not charge in at once."

"Were all of Alo’s arrows operated?"

"What does that mean?"

"Not all arrows changed trajectory. Arrows she intentionally did not operate have fallen several on the match field. If Maria is careless a ground arrow will pierce her back."

"I see. Therefore Maria-senshu is watching surroundings and being wary of her back so she cannot rashly charge in?"

"That is it."

Arrows have fallen everywhere on the match field. If you do not know which of these will start moving Maria cannot move rashly I suppose.

Three arrows returned to Alo’s hands. Even though they were knocked down with dual swords they are not broken so are they metal. Are they strengthened with magic power.

However that three arrows returned is also a bluff I suppose. She should still be able to operate several more.

"Ability is even. But even so the arrows’ magic-power imparting will eventually cut so Maria will win. However—"

After high-level offense and defense Alo lost all arrows. Alo opposed Maria’s fierce attack with a bow that can apparently also be used as a close-range weapon and a dagger taken from her waist.

"If Maria were not prohibited from using skills she would steal the opponent’s weapon and victory would be confirmed."

"I see. Now there are apparently suspicious persons in the royal capital so person-controlling type abilities are prohibited from use."

Because I felt many gazes from behind I supplemented "The suspicious person is not me!"

"Etto, Masaharu-san. The other day there was a rumor in town that a naked man flying in the sky at midnight was witnessed..."

Esty-san from beyond Fullru taught me in a small voice.

...!

When I took Elsa to Ana’s inn!

Kuso. Was I witnessed by someone...

No way, some skills becoming prohibited from use is my fault?

I returned to normal and asked Iria.

"Naa Iria. During a match I am wearing golden armor so it is fine but if for some reason I put out my cock in front of the king’s eyes does it become a foul loss?"

"Eh? ...No I wonder... There is no precedent. Until now no one has exposed their crotch during a match... However if you buy the king’s displeasure a foul loss is possible."

"I see. I have to be careful not to put out my cock in front of the king."

While talking—

"That is enough!"

Giesch announced match end.

"Time up. Match time is until the hourglass sand falls. Both as A-rank knights had splendid technique."

Iria clapped.

We also clapped together.

Spectators also sent applause and cheers.

I see. The hourglass was about 3 minutes.

"In the second half Maria-senshu was clearly dominant but how will victory or defeat become?"

"It becomes a decisive battle selecting representatives but probably it will not become that. Look."

Giesch announced victory of the Order of the Black Shadow.

Apparently Alo announced defeat.

"The decisive battle should have been the same combination as now so does it mean Alo-senshu admitted loss?"

"That is so. Originally Alo is not suited to fighting on a narrow match field. An ability that lives on a wide battlefield. Even though she cannot use skills fighting that well against close-range specialized Maria is enough."

First I am glad an acquaintance won. For now Maria is South Army so from North Army Order of the Capybara she is an enemy but it cannot be helped.

Next is the appearance of a team that by north-south classification is also an enemy but I have no choice but to cheer.

"Everyone. Next is Ana’s team. The team of the person in red clothes who gave us fruit. Do your best cheering."

First-round match 3 is Order of the Vermilion Shield versus Order of Red Iron.

Because the Order of Red Iron has Ana and È even though South Army I have no choice but to cheer.
