◎ Central Arena of the City of Lizarect

Axe Demon Gogol is a well-known adventurer working mainly in the northern Republic of Jagra. The axe knocks Ogi apart and easily rips the enemies of the hardness of the golem class. Above all, the characteristic is the comma-like attack 'Typhoon', which uses centrifugal force and gravitational movement with a single-handed axe in each hand. It was said to twist down the demons lining up like tornadoes.

"Ha-ha. Interesting, you are."

Vanil, the man who wore silver armor and waved a black sword, was overwhelmed.

"Whoa, whoa."

Gogol waves the axe, no matter how much he punches in, Vanil plays them all back with a black sword. It's not a force move. Shortly before he tried to shake it down, he slashed it at an awesome rate, aiming at the brink of being able to shake it and force it, continuing to kill Gogol's attack itself. Gogol is not allowed to attack as if.

"What a sword speed."

Gogol speaks so painfully. But the opposite Vanil looked bored when he saw it and talked like this.

"But you're a little tired."

And I jumped into nostalgia, avoiding it as I stepped in the blow of the descending axe.

"Hey."

"You..."

Gogol is stunned by Vanil's appearance, which suddenly appears in front of his sight. And more than that, I fear seeing defensive witchcraft rebel against a bee on a sword protruding in my belly.

"Oh, you should avoid it. It breaks, this?

Gogol blues into Vanil's words and goes into evasive action. And at the same time, there was an explosion.

"Shit, winner Vanilu!

The referee raises his hand and declares so.

The place was excited by Gogol, who was blown away by the shock, and Vanil, who was laughing in a royal manner, and applauded.

It should be noted that the explosion that has just occurred is the result of self-destructing by dispersing the impact when the blade wound defense technique can be broken. It's a silo thing that takes all the damage to your body, but still would be better than just losing your technique and getting mutilated.

Thus, one finalist from the General Division of the Grand Martial Arts Association was confirmed. Vanil, the mysterious man who showed overwhelming power. Everyone in the venue was in love with the strength of the man.

"Strong..."

Minaka squeaked like that for a second.

Vanil the Swordsman of Silver Armor, Minaka shudders unexpectedly when she sees its strength and remembers the fact that she was previously being pursued. Fear passes when I wonder what would have happened if I was supposed to fight that and that time. But the sound of the wind next to him did not fall to his heart, and he looked at Vanil.

"What's up?

Jinlai, concerned about the condition, asks. After meeting God Norman earlier, he was strangely out of his mind here, but now he was the face of the usual wind noise.

"Yeah, it's that Mr. Vanil, but hey, you look younger than the first time you saw him"

"Young?"

Jinlai turns his surprised gaze to Vanil, who is in the venue for the words of the wind.

"Don't you agree with Mr. Minaka?

Minaka shook her neck to the side feeling sorry for the wind noise.

"I'm sorry. I just don't get it. If you ask me, I think it will happen."

He didn't seem very comfortable remembering to say that. But Jinlai narrowed his eyes and said, "Well."

"If so, that's probably Val Nielsen"

Jinlai speaks so. "No way......" Minaka muttered, and Louise and Mephirus reacted in the same way. But neither Tiara nor Naoki, with whom the wind sounded, sounded familiar to his name.

"I do hear you're a user of instant killing swords that defeat enemies without even realizing that you've waved them."

"Yeah, that was the story. I'm a Rank S adventurer who never met but was active on the front line some decades ago. The speed of that sword was so fast that it was lightning."

Jinlai nods at Namica and Louise's words.

"Yes. I should only be around 7-80 in my current year. I thought he was a disciple or something because I thought he remembered that sword muscle, but he didn't want to be young with the power of the devil."

With that said, Jinlai looks at Vanil leaving the venue with a strange face.

"Do you know him?

A wind noise asked how it was, and Jinlai nodded.

"To the extent of familiarity. That was about thirty years ago, too."

"Oh well."

The wind also snorts at Jinlai's words.

"From what I understand, it doesn't matter now. It's more of a game between Yumika and Genzo."

"Are you sure it starts right away?

"Sounds like it. The question is whether divine werewolving makes sense."

Minaka reacts to the word.

"Divine werewolving. That's what Yumika said, too. I'm sorry."

"Oh, you were so depressed that Mr. Minaka showed you thunder deification and you didn't put your hands in it."

"I'd be more shocked if you apologized for that."

"I'm sorry about your apprentice."

Jinlai apologized for Minaka's unintentional bitterness.

"Well, I don't think you'll know until you try."

"Sort of. The power of a man named Genzo, we haven't seen the bottom yet."

"Mr. Jinlai doesn't even know who your grandfather is over there, does he?

"Oh."

Jinlai nodded. Jinlai also feels that it is the same way of fighting Eastern currents as Minaka, but has no idea what its qualities are.

"Oh, I think he's out."

That's what Minaka said next to the conversation between Jinlai and the wind noise.

◎ Central Arena of the City of Lizarect

When the bowflower came out of the west gate, there was a large audience looking at her.

(I'm not used to it...)

Bowflowers laugh so bitterly. I was just a high school girl not long ago, and I shouldn't have been the kind of person to get out here. But now I'm standing here.

"Well, do you have to?"

That's right. I whined to myself, and I looked forward. There was an old man with a knife on his back there. His gaze was strong, but his gaze was not directed at the bowflower.

(Anyone watching?

Following that gaze, he seemed to be looking at the top audience room. Realizing how the bowflower looked, Genzo turns the gaze he was pointing at into a bowflower. But it wasn't the strong hostility that was there earlier.

"Hmm. You're a very young lady."

"Excuse me. Something's coming out of me."

Genzo shakes his neck to the side of the bow flower that speaks so.

"That's not a good way to put it. Those who lost to you didn't lose to someone named 'Me or anything' either."

The bowflower also looks like a bum in the words of Genzo and returns "Right". Genzo nods at the bowflower.

"That's right. Otherwise, it wouldn't be worth it for me to just take it down."

And Genzo pulled out the knife. Bowflowers roar at the terrible intimidation emanating from that black blade. But I can't help but be frightened. The bowflower also removes the spear from his back and puts it forward.

The referee confirms that the blades overlap and applies the blade wound defense technique before lowering them.

and make sure the two get in place and set up before

"Begin."

And I was holding my hand up.

"Must win first!!

Bowflower activates Divine Wolfification.

"What?

I'm also surprised that Genzo is just like that.

The girl's hair in front of her turns silver, and her face turns into that of the Beastman. Not only did the ear become the dog's, but the pin stood and the tail grew. But I don't care about that change in appearance. The thing to fear is to strengthen your abilities.

"I'm coming!

Divine werewolved bowflowers kick the earth and run. Jun Min doubles his power to greatly exceed people's leg strength.

"Fast."

I'll try to impress Genzo more than say I'm surprised by it. But Bowflower also doesn't know Genzo's abilities. There is no reason to know, for example, that Bowflower actually knows exactly what abilities were enhanced by the skill 'Information Exploration' derived from Ninjamaster.

And Genzo is beyond the power of a man with the power of a demon. Take a spear blow with a knife almost at the same speed as the Divine Wolfification Bow Flower.

"Become?"

It was Bowflower's turn to be surprised at that. He also took the attack of the Divine Werewolf Bowflower, which doubled his muscle strength, from the front. That was the first time I had done that with a human opponent.

"What an idiot."

Critical, spear tip and blade of knife collide. We really bump into each other in a few places and stay.

"Aren't you asking your friends, too? That I'm the devil?

"Oh, that's the thing"

Advantage of divine werewolving seems to have decreased considerably, but without divine werewolving it may not have been a battle.

(But I let it out, which means I can fight, right?)

Yes, Bowflower thinks, backsteps all at once.

"If you back off, did you think it would be in the spear's favor?

But Genzo splits into 'four' on the spot.

"Split?"

I heard it from the wind noise that it was Ninja, but I tongue-in-cheek that I didn't mean to be separated...... Some of the higher Ninja skills are accompanied by real images. Then this is also possible. I accidentally wanted to summon a silver wolf, but summoning is forbidden.

(Then what about being separated?

I thought so, too, but the game is going on more than the referee has taken the anomaly.

But it's not just about being separated. Genzo unleashes another ninja.

"Skill/Golden Art"

A tremendous metal sound is stirred around the divine werewolved bowflower with its words. The technique of gold is originally the technique of squeaking metal noises around the perimeter to attract attention and escape, but it is also available as such a restraint.

"No, what is this?

Divine werewolved bowflowers are severely upset by sudden murmurs. The 'ultra-hearing' that is granted as a result of divine werewolving is a load. And that is naturally the attack of the late Genzo, who is losing sight of Bowflower's ability in "Information Exploration".

A pinch of bowflowers to four onslaught, including a sudden sound disorder and split body, but succeeds in avoiding attacks somehow due to the passive skills of 'Intuition' and 'Lightness'. But I can't get around to being an attacker and I haven't been able to take any combat initiatives at all. That was an unknown realm for demons who fought as their instincts had always gone and bowflowers who had only fought the challenging Jinlai from the front.

(Uh, I don't know why anymore)

Yes, bow flowers are in a hurry, but avoid attack, so make the most of it.

I just want to activate Zone, a skill that boosts concentration here, but that skill is not compatible with the type that breaks the other person's pace. If something breaks down after the zone is activated, not only will the zone be released, but the mental stability will break and you will be in a state of malaise. But within the thought of that, four Genzos come running from all directions.

(Can't you even give me a think gap?

Bowflowers have a clue who takes this method of warfare.

(Wind chirping!

Launch an unknown attack on the opponent and attack unilaterally without granting this attack a gap. If the bow and flower also sounds like wind, it may be a good way to deal with knowing your skills.

But he is completely taken by the stranger's reward for his strange moves.

(with)

The consciousness of the bowflower that came to my mind with my best friend's face switches to nature. And more concentration, activating the 'zone' with local forces, not from the skills list. The surrounding scenery and sounds disappear and the concentration increases to the extreme.

(One, two, three, I see it!

Divine werewolved bowflowers mutilated their bodies at once by spun their spears upright and sideways for minutes from three directions. And the mutilated part of my body disappears. But...

There was a sound of something riding on a tongue of bowflower spears.

(The fourth one... well, I did start in four directions earlier)

I didn't recognize it for some reason. Perhaps cognitive inhibition skills similar to Invisible were used. And the tip of the knife sticks out in front of the bowflower.

"I think I win."

Standing on a bowflower spear, bowflower regrettably teething to Genzo, who speaks so.

"We lost."

That's what I told him. Along with the words, the referee raised his hand and shouted, "Winner Genzo".

And in the great cheer that happens, Genzo descends from the spear of the divine werewolved bowflower, saying "ho". Genzo didn't weigh as much as he did when he was on board, but when he came down, he felt like he had taken something rash.

"... I lost"

And I groaned so small. It was a complete defeat of bowflowers.
