A slight leak of energy from the body,

Overflow at once.

The next moment,

「――Tack !!」

Right before my eyes, Masatog was there.

Haruki defends in a hurry.

On the verge of contact, Seiki prevented Masatog's attack with a dagger.

You can't win by force.

Choose evacuation without opposing the force being held down.

However, it is pushed at a speed faster than the evacuation.

I can't escape.

Relax and rotate.

The branch passed beside Haruki with a fearless sound.

Step back immediately.

But,

"Kaha !!"

Masatsuki's kick hit the abdomen of Seiki trying to open the gap.

How much power was being held up?

Seiki blew off about five meters and rolled down the ground.

He was afraid of the pursuit and immediately woken up.

"Huh ......... Huh ..."

Fortunately, Masatog did not pursue Seiki.

No need to chase.

Seiki lost. There is a game.

"One more time?"

"……Please!"

Seiki bowed down and held her dagger again.

Masatog's attack was recognizable, unlike rainstorms.

However, it is overwhelmingly faster than rainfall.

It is a movement that makes use of physical ability, not technology.

But that doesn't mean he's fighting hard.

When Seiki turned and leaned, the kick was like a gaping attack.

(not yet!)

Haruki renews her spirit and attacks herself this time.

But not hit.

Masatugu is keeping out of the dagger, as if he had seen Seiki's attack.

If you step on it, you will get a painful counterattack.

However, even if you are out of time, the opponent's attack will reach you.

"... Kupa"

The battle from Haruki quickly returned to Masatog.

moment.

The branches of the tree are hazy.

The view is reversed.

Shock on back.

Seiki was lying down on her back.

My feet are slowly numb.

Apparently, he was walking on a tree branch.

"what will you do?"

"one more time please!"

From there, Seiki fought against Gamushara.

Far away, Seiki thought.

The distance to Masatog is too far.

Although Masatogu is obviously sloppy, even the sloppy is treated lightly.

(I didn't feel this far in the rainy season!)

Seiki bites the navel.

However, Haruki at that time was much weaker.

That's why the seasonal rain just managed to keep up.

Haruki was even more regrettable because she knew it.

I was regrettable that I didn't even notice it, even though I was sloppy.

I felt sorry that I felt like I was getting closer to the image of the rain when I was getting sloppy.

"Uoooooooo !!"

Haruki screams and slashes at Masatog.

It is treated many times, rolling over the ground many times ...

Pain in the body, impatience in the mind, and concentration,

Gradually step into silence.

All consciousness is concentrated in battle,

Consciousness reads every movement.

Seiki was only driven by that reaction.

Masatog was fighting with a masked man while saving his power to 60%.

Despite 60% of his ability, Masatog is an adventurer who goes below the 50th floor of Shinjuku Station.

If you are an adventurer who is not in the lower ranks, even if it is 60% of your ability, it is too much.

In fact, the masked man has not been able to deal with Masatog at all.

If you are a normal adventurer, it is a one-sided battle of a level that can quickly break your heart.

But Masatog thought this was just right.

Adventurers who are greedy for strength are an important force in dungeon capture.

If he's an adventurer who is greedy for strength, he'll want to join Team Braver, "the stronger Masatog is."

Being in the best team is the best way to enhance yourself.

But if he isn't attracted,

Braver who puts all his effort into capture does not need anyone who is not attracted to strength.

Masatugu does not do so to maintain the strength of Braver.

Some adventurers despise Masatsug or Braver as "desperate to defend his position."

"Do you want to stay strong so far? ]

But Masatog does so to erase dungeons from Japan.

It was never to protect the strongest title, nor to be touted as a hero.

Masatsug never approached a masked man using a dagger.

The battle proceeded as Masatog intended.

However, the wind changed strangely halfway.

"……Hmm?"

A masked man evaded Masatog's attack.

Masatog was angry at the move.

The masked man hadn't even responded to Masatsu's attack until now.

Instead of using a dagger to prevent it, he suddenly avoided it.

(Is it happening?)

Now, without question, Masatugu attacks the masked man again.

But

(-Now !?)

This was also avoided.

Having avoided twice is unlikely to be accidental.

Masatog is getting more alert.

(... this is it)

Make a stronger attack than before and beat the mask.

The rising mask is cut down using a feint, and a gap is created and kicked off.

However, he was avoided.

(—Chey !!)

Make a tongue tap and turn back.

Slightly forcibly shake the branch with brute force.

Masatog pushed his dagger and threw his mask away.

In the next game and the next one, Masatog will win.

Masatog's victory did not fluctuate at all.

However, by the time the twentieth match was played, Masatog noticed.

(How many times?)

Zokuri and Masatog's back tremble.

(From where I was fighting with all my might !?)

Already, Masatog was confronting the masked man with all his might.

If we didn't confront ourselves with all our might, we would have been able to take control of the game even for a moment.

(This is what Shigure said !!)

Masatogu had heard a practice match with the mask since the rain.

Say, it comes with everything.

Masatsug listened in half the story, as the rainfall was always short of words and could not be explained.

However, you can understand by actually fighting.

The masked man is definitely growing fast while fighting.

It will follow you forever.

Certainly, the words of Shigure were true.

Attack with 60% of the power is no longer valid for the masked man.

Conversely, they are imitated at the same angle and at the same speed.

(I want ...)

The kick is the same.

The mask mixed the kick with the attack.

It is the same as that used by Masatog.

It was a kick using the blind spot.

Masatog, who was careless, guarded with a small shield when hitting directly.

60% of the power can handle it.

So it was 80%, 90% and finally we had to confront it with all our strength.

Even when the pace increased, the mask came to Masatog.

Attack that could not be avoided at first is now completely evaded.

The movement reminded Masatug of the rainfall.

The mask approaches in almost no motion.

This is also a rainfall.

He got into Masato's pocket and twisted his body to make a horizontal cut.

A quick and powerful blow that links all muscles of the body.

In this attack, Masatugu once fought once, the appearance of Kagemitsu.

Masatogu backsteps without panic.

But,

`` -Mu !? ''

Intuition reacts.

Masatog raises his left arm.

Immediately after, a shock.

Koshield prevented the mask from being kicked.

A turning kick using the momentum of the dagger.

The technology that transforms moments that are supposed to be gaps into attacks is Masatsugu's movement.

The mask, which was cornered by Masatogu, dwells on blood in the miracle.

Blood fills the mask, fills the gaps, increases speed, and peels the fangs.

"Ha ... haha!"

Unexpectedly, Masatog laughed.

The mask had much more power than Masatog's expectation.

Masatog never thought that it was such a talent.

(I want this guy more and more!)

Masatog laughed

While laughing, he breaks the mask.

(This guy must join Braver anyway !!)

Masatog has a lot to teach this man.

Something you want to know.

When she first met the masked man, Masatog was impressed by the sigh.

As far as the equipment is concerned, it is a beginner adventurer, but the sign of killing was strangely good.

And now.

His sign of killing was getting better and better, and even in Masaguts it would have been possible to lose sight if not in combat.

Fortunately, the strange mask he is wearing is flickering, and Masatugu has not lost sight.

――What is that mask?

Why is it shining !?

It's not a dangerous attack ... Masatog's intuition is not responding.

At first glance, it is not possible to infer the ability of the mask.

--However.

Masatog terrified at his hypothesis.

If this mask disappears, will he disappear from the view of Masatogu in an instant?

Such speculation made Masatog's body cold.

Masatsug worried about the relationship between the abilities of the body and the mask.

I was worried, but I couldn't afford to think about Masatugu, who was already fighting hard.

(If you win this battle ... will you take off your mask?)

For a moment, such an idea floated somewhere in my head and disappeared.

*

The battle between Masatsug and air ended in a flash.

"... Huh"

A big sigh leaked from Van's mouth watching the situation.

This is a natural result.

I do not feel sorry for the loss of air.

Wouldn't this match help Van improve his stalemate?た め I was disappointed by the fact that the battle ended in an instant because of such a faint expectation.

"Is it still going on?"

"e?"

Van thought that it was a one game, but it seems different.

As Akane said, the air was ready again, even though it was just settled.

Next, next. All the air is repelled by Masatog.

The match between Air and Masatog wasn't even a battle.

That must be it, and Masatog is Japan's strongest adventurer.

Air, on the other hand, is only one of the unnamed intermediate adventurers.

The abilities of the two are so far apart that there is no choice but to be treated lightly.

Get attacked one after another, fall down and get up.

The air was already muddy and ragged.

Van began to get irritated little by little, as his appearance seemed dub with his troubles.

What are you doing?

Isn't this just bullying! When.

(Can team members stop?)

The fire lotus watching nearby and the monsters air-tamed are watching the battle.

Even Akane next to Van has no sign of movement.

(Why can you look silent !?)

Van was very confused by the appearance of such friends and Akane.

This battle is already beyond the scope of practice games.

The van could only be seen as a top adventurer wielding the lower one with violence.

So why doesn't anyone stop?

Van can't understand at all.

With Van confused, the wind direction changed slightly.

The air evaded Masatog's attack for the first time.

"Came, came"

"……Hmm?"

What came? Van tilts his head, but Akane does not answer his question.

Akane was just staring straight behind the air.

Expectations and excitement are expressed in their expressions as if they were waiting for fireworks to be launched in the sky in the dark.

Van noticed the change in the game shortly after Akane's remarks.

The situation remains the same.

But the speed of the game has clearly changed.

Masatog's attack, which had previously been captured by Van's eyes, is no longer visible even when it is hazy.

And what an air that should have been smashed is evading that terrible attack!

It is impossible for a middle-class adventurer to follow the physical performance of the hero Masatogu.

But the air is avoiding Masatog's attack.

Is it a work? Or is it your original ability?

Van couldn't already judge.

There was no longer a dimension battle that could be judged.

"..."

As he watched the fight, Van clenched his back teeth.

When Van sees the air being ravaged,

"It's natural because it's an intermediate adventurer"

"I can't help being an intermediate adventurer"

I thought so.

But he is an intermediate adventurer, but desperately devours Masatog.

Perhaps that kind of thinking had a great influence on Van's growth?

I am somewhere,

"I can't help being a ranker"

"I'm impossible because I'm different from Kagemitsu-san"

Have you given up on thinking that?

Perhaps you have determined your talents by speculation and have set up a ceiling that should not exist?

What I was missing was like the air-desperate to eat whatever the opponent was.

"Van. What do you think of the air?"

"……weak"

Van's words were not muddy by jealousy or envy.

The air is weak. It is an unquestionable fact.

If van and air fight, most of them will win.

It is not physical ability.

He has overwhelmingly lack of combat experience.

"But ..."

The more he compensated for his lack of combat experience, the better his experience was.

It is known whether it can be obtained in tens of battles.

At best, you only need to make a single fluke.

In kendo, you can hit the surface without knowing the reason, and in aikido you are repeatedly rolled on the ground.

It was a level that did not eat the technique just by continuing to apply the technique overwhelmingly overwhelmingly.

The rate of air growth is extraordinary.

Van thought that such an atmosphere was enviable.

The air is weak.

But that weakness can only be overcome with experience.

Van, on the other hand, does not yet know how to overcome his weaknesses.

I had no idea how to get stronger, so I was envious of the air where I could see the way to get stronger.

"The air really grows at a terrific speed. If you are careless, the armor that you repaired by worrying about your head will soon lose its suitability. I mean ... Gugugi "

Next to the van, the ghost sound of the vermilion peeled off slightly.

He makes his last minute teeth.

She is her, and she seems to have something to do with the air.

Van can't understand at all ...

As the emotions swirled in Van's chest, the battle closed off swiftly with a broken branch in Masatugu's hands.
