Maou No Utsuwa

The swordsmanship rivalry between the Royal College and the Royal College has shown so much excitement that it cannot be cured by the events of one college. The first event in the Imperial Capital since the collapse of the Emperor made it sound like a festival.

A number of shops have opened in the vicinity of the Royal Arena, which was chosen as the venue, and is very busy by visitors from the city near the Royal Capital and the Imperial Capital.

And not all the people of the Empire are visiting the sights. The number of visitors from the surrounding countries was by no means small, all the way to the royal capital.

A rivalry by the two great powers of the continent, albeit a student competition. That interest is never low.

Will the next empire remain unchanged and powerful, or will the kingdom show its power to transcend the empire? Since the collapse of the Emperor, it is an important concern for the surrounding countries that may be suspicious of the Emperor's martial arts.

As a result, the swordsmanship competition finally opened as those with various thoughts watched.

It will be the dawn of turmoil.

"Then, stupid..."

Rank to stand up for such faces as incredible.

"Medium, winner! King's College Egoli! With three wins from King's College, the winner of World War I is the Royal College A Team!

The defeat of the team of the Hildegands, the Aces of the Imperial College, was decided.

The audience, who filled the arena with just one defeat of the Imperial College A team, which is supposed to be the winning candidate, has also lost their voice.

"Not good!"

"What's going on? You're totally out of your mind."

If you bet on Hildegand's team, you're sure to be the first. Even if the multiplier is low, it's a huge miscalculation for the Kamuis, who thought it was definite profit.

"You're totally fucked. They're thinking about the order."

"What do you mean?

"In strong order, I think they're lined up in medium, secondary, vanguard."

"That's the thing. If you win three times first, you win."

The rivalry is a five-to-five star fight. Three wins ahead would be better. Conversely, if we lose three times first, there will be no turning of vice-generals, generals. In the end, both Hildegand and Matthias have finished the first game without taking their swords.

"What do we do?

"Hurry up and tell Otto. He said take the back."

"Behind?"

"I mean bet on the kingdom. Except us."

"You mean the rest of the team is the same?

"Maybe. They can't be courteous to knights."

Lined up from the Admiral in strong order is the courtesy of a general team battle. The kingdom completely ignores it.

"Okay!

"I have to tell Dee."

Selene's worries are not like those of the Kamuis. Naturally, but I felt right for the next Deefleet to come out against me.

"Tell him. What do we do?

"That's the necessary action."

"You can't change the order. Try that in front of the heavy towns. Dee has a rounded face."

"So, what are we going to do?

"You should let Sele win instead. Good, 'cause you can't lose a single time."

Kamui's gaze to say so was not at Serene, but at the end of the arena.

Hildegand was there to slap him on the shoulder of a rank depressed by defeat and encouraging him.

"... right. You can't lose."

For this day's sake, I have continued to exercise like a spit of blood, but without a sword, I have no idea that it is over. Even if I hadn't shown that at all, Serene felt Hildegand crying in remorse in her heart.

"But can we win?

"If they've been studying this one properly, you can win"

"What? What do you mean?

He said, "We should be hitting the weakest team."

"I see. But what about World War II?

"That's up to Sele's hard work"

"I hope you work hard!

"Worst."

"What's the worst?

"If three out of four teams lose, what do you think?

"It's"

"The prestige of the Empire is in decline. I don't care about that per se."

"It's okay."

"But that doesn't crush the face of this generation. Because you're going to lose your voice."

"So?"

"We need to diminish the meaning of this confrontation a little bit. What do you think of a tournament where the Admiral never fights?

"Weird."

"Right? There is no strength out there when I say I lost. Then I cannot say enough that the kingdom is excellent. That's the kind of muscle writing. For that matter, I'd rather not fight."

"... something, you're deluding me, aren't you?

"Nothing..."

"I knew it. For the most part, I didn't just want to fight it."

"So you're gonna lose?

"It's... I don't like it"

If you think about the repentance of the Hildegands, you never want to lose. Well, Kamui's right, Deefleet will lose without taking the sword.

"If Sele works hard, I will inevitably not fight. That's what I'm saying."

"What about Alto? I know it's stronger than it looks."

"There, I'll come up with something"

"Mischief again?

"That's what they've been up to. There's nothing wrong with this one."

"Yes, yes"

The Kamuis have no knight's code, no noble face. I don't choose the means. That's what the Kamuis want.

And as Kamui predicted, the other teams in the Empire were to be defeated before they could reach the vice-generals.

The venue has already completely disappeared before it began, creating what can be termed sinking pain.

"What is the total defeat of the Third World War"

"Now the prestige of the Empire"

"Not good, not good. There are also a number of guests from the surrounding countries. Let me show you this impudence right in front of you."

What is panicking is the historical people of the Empire watching the confrontation. Including the eastern western ambassador and the chief of the Imperial Knights, he has all the faces early on.

Most of all, I'm complaining about other attendees. Both uncles feel uncomfortable losing with their child's team and not being able to say anything.

Kamui Kreutz at the end.

The chief of the Imperial Knights shrugged pompously without worrying about it like that.

"Does the Knights Commander know the man?

Somewhat, in the name of joy, those around him inquired of the Knights Commander. If the Knights Commander is to know his name, he can expect it. That's what I thought.

However, that expectation will be remembered in the next word of the Knights Commander.

"I heard his name from my men. Kamui, a former Honfleet family. It's Viscount Kreutz now."

"... then we lose no more"

The infamous Honfleet family, it's natural to think there's no way such a raw man can win. Those who know about Sophia also know that that is why Kamui cannot use magic.

Drop your shoulders disappointingly, every aspect of your history.

"What do you think?

"Master Sophilia?

"I think Kamui Kreutz will show you quite a fight"

"Does Master Sophilia know him?

"Yeah, I know you well. It's Kraw's classmate. He."

"Ha."

"Well, let's take a good look. That's all we can do."

"Ha..."

Even if the Empress Sophilia tells you so, it's not something you can expect a guest who knows nothing about.

◇ ◇ ◇

"Start Game One, Game Four more than this! Pioneer, forward!

On the decree of the referee, two of the vanguards are in front of each other, and the vanguard on the Kamui side is Serene. Slightly, a voice of encouragement flies from the Kamuis to the tense faceted Serene.

"Serene, take it easy!

"But don't lose!

"If you lose, be ready! Oh, but take it easy!

"Which one!?

Looking back, Serene yelling at the Kamuis.

"Pioneer! Faster forward!

"... excuse me. Those idiots."

Serene tensions are completely undone. Even the tension has been lifted, to such an extent that Serene has not noticed, naturally.

"Stand up!"

Together with the voice of the judgment set-up, each begins a chant of physical strengthening magic. Anticipating that it would be over, the referee raised the voice of initiation.

Stuff it up front at once, the vanguard of a sword-wielding kingdom. Serene threw it away by taking steps to the side. Furthermore, Serene prevents swords from swinging beside each other by combining them.

"Whoa! No help to the girl opponent?!

"Kingdoms are eggs!

"Didn't they teach you to be nice to girls!?

Now the Kamuis fly their jerks towards their opponents.

"Oh, wait!

The referee immediately stopped the game in a waiting voice. As it is, the referee walks toward the Kamuis.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you think it's a disgrace to the Empire to cheer?

"If that's what you're saying, it's hard to hear."

"Yes, yes. I don't think it's ugly."

"Anyway! Watch it quietly!

"" "Ha!

The spectators stare at the Kamui like that in a vague way. The sinking atmosphere faded.

"Um, Master Sophilia. Do they really know each other?

"Oh, let's take a good look. That would be good, wouldn't it?

"Ha."

"Goddamn it, I knew it, oh, that's funny"

"Prince Therese?

"Oh, shut up, look, look."

"Ha."

Those around you bewildered by Prince Thales, who seems to laugh with pleasure at no time.

Never mind them, the game was moving on.

Without clapping his opponent's sword, Serene turned back and slapped the sword on his opponent's back as much as he wanted.

Kick more legs on the back of kingdom students falling at the front. The vanguard of the kingdom rolled off the top of the fighting table with the momentum as it stood.

According to the rules of the Sword Guild, it is defeated immediately. Serene victory.

"Off-site! Winner! The imperial vanguard Serene!

"Yay!

Historical people who jump up and gaze at the delightful Serene.

"Eh, you won"

"But what's that last one?

"Feet..."

"It's not a battle of knights with kicks, etc."

"Isn't that good? Because we won."

"Not with that kind of problem"

"I defended, defended, heck, the knight's, the way he fought, the way he fought, the way it turned out now."

"Um, what's that?

"Oh, shut up, look, look."

"Ha."

Those around them bewildered by Prince Thales, who sometime could not help himself.

It doesn't matter to them, the game goes on.

"And the winner! Imperial, secondary, Lutz!

"Easy win!"

Slightly two shots. With those two blows, Lutz knocked off his opponent's next sharp off the scene. You're right to say that you blew it up.

Those of you who have an eye for surprise at the next sharp line that was quickly over.

"You won again."

"is, early"

"That's two wins. One more win."

But here's the problem.

The chief of the Imperial Knights opened his mouth, who had so far remained silent and gazed at the outcome of the game.

"I wonder what that means?

"The kingdom has the strongest students in the middle. Next on the next, next on the pioneer.

Don't. "

"Hey, what's that?

"It's a way of ignoring the knight's gratitude."

"Oh my God? Am I allowed to do that? I have to tell the Kingdom College to change it immediately."

"Now. Besides, what do you say? Are your deputy generals and generals weak? If you say that, it's over."

"But"

"Anyway, things are already going. Only that one team is left, is this middleman strong?

"I don't know that. Either way, it feels like a brainstorm."

"I see. This team ignores the knight's thanks, too."

"But aren't you winning because you did that?

"Right. But the gratuitous battle only creates misery"

"Yeah. Well, it sounds like I've said it many times, but we're just gonna have to watch"

"Right."

"Medium! Previous!

A middle-sized student comes up from the kingdom to the fighting table. Against that is......, a wave of sword.

"Imperial D-Team, Mid-level, Before"

"This middleman is the sword."

"Huh? I don't know what you're talking about. Anyway, come on up."

"That's the sword that my classmate was using."

"No, so what happened to that?

"At least just his sword, I wanted you to join me on this occasion"

"No, even if they say so"

"Anyway, this middleman is that sword. Let the battle begin."

Whatever the referees say, the middlemen are a glimmer of swords.

"Don't be ridiculous! It's just a sword. Tell me how to fight it!

Students on the kingdom side have been complaining.

"I don't care, if we get started and drop it off-site, isn't that your win?

"What?!

"Or can't you even beat the sword you keep?

"There's no way you can do that!

"Then fight. Judge, please."

"No, but"

"Please do it for our friend!

"... no"

"Judgment! It's not right to go along with this nonsense! I need you to get started!

"... if that's what you say. All right, stand down!

"I don't need a stand!

"That's right. Begin!"

Students of the kingdom who walked out before with the decree of the beginning, when they came to the sword they had placed, kicked it well and dropped it under the fighting table.

"Whoa! Otto! Good luck with that!

"I'm not wasting your fight!

The Kamuis rushing to that sword.

"Judgment!"

"Winner, kingdom, middle class"

"What the hell?"

"... you, get down quickly. Next up, vice generals."

"Become!? What? Be such an idiot!?

Here the students of the kingdom finally realized that their battle was over.

And the next vice general is the fourth and second weakest student on the team.

How ridiculous, the people of your history who have been shown the dimensions and have been completely consolidated.

"... Um, what's that?

"Come on. What is it?"

"You said you were a dead classmate now. Such a student on their team."

"Not now."

"Huh?"

"That classmate is still alive and well. The college left, though. So it's not dead, it's not."

"Isn't that Petten?

"Blah, blah, blah, blah."

"Prince Therese?

Prince Therese, who erupted without being overwhelmed, is grinning with his belly as it is. Those around them who are confused by how they are usually never seen.

"And anyway, this one's losing."

"But the strongest middleman crushed. You'll be fourth or fifth later. If that were the case, I'd have expected to win."

"I guess so."

"Did you win? The way we did it wasn't very praiseworthy."

"Still, I spared you all the defeat."

"The next time you lose, I don't think that means a lot either."

"I'll win next time. I'm sure."

"Really? Looking forward to your next hand."

"Me too."

"Vice General Alto of the Winner Empire! This will win the Imperial College D Team!

And you know what, Alto wins. The Kamui team's victory was decided.

"World War I was an easy win."

"Oh, is the problem next?"

"If Serene wins, you win, right?

"Well, so come on, Sele."

"Hey, don't make me carry the load."

"Maybe, it's okay. From what I've seen in the first round, it's Sele's win at the end of the day. Don't be alarmed."

"Yeah. Well, I'll try."

◇ ◇ ◇

And move on to World War II. The first game of World War II is between kingdoms. It ended in a battle with no content at all. Naturally, it will be the A-team that wins.

And the second game of World War II begins.

"Pioneer! Previous!

Two pioneers across the street.

"Stand up!"

They whine a small, chanting voice. When it's over, each one sets up a sword.

"Begin!"

The first person to come forward was Serene. The sword that is swung down from the upper section, directly to that sword, also crosses the sword with the students of the kingdom. Metal sounds ringing.

As it is, Serene tries to disorient the opponent by diagonally defying the force he tries to push in.

But the opponent didn't force him either, he jumped to the side and took a break.

Serene jumping in there. Take steps to turn to the other side of the opponent who took the opposite stance.

The sword that swept beside him was prevented by the sword, but even then, Serene's movements never stopped. Always keep attacking them in a way that takes the side of the opponent.

"Hmm. That female student. I'll do it more than I thought."

It was the Knights Commander who gave the exclamation.

"Really?

"Above all, the center of gravity is stable. I don't think it's a female student. That's more of an overall balance than a force."

"I see."

"Maybe we can win this. They're starting to collapse better."

The opponent being attacked from right to left is slowly lagging behind in its movements.

"Now!

Kamui's voice sounds. As I reacted to it, Serene protruded his sword greatly. To avoid it, students of the kingdom sinking their bodies.

Serene's knee hit him directly in the face.

By a knee kick determined to be the counter, the students of the kingdom collapsed straight to the front.

"Hey, at the end of the day, you're kicking my knee"

Captain of the Imperial Knights putting in a light penetration.

"What's that?

"That's an invitation. But do something thoughtful. What would you have done if you hadn't sinked in?"

"Were you confident?

"You said you were spotting habits? Because it's getting bigger."

"Anyway, that's a win."

"Right."

Serene has a perfect sword on the collapsed opponent's neck.

"Winner Empire D Team Pioneer, Serene!

Confirming that, the referee declared Serene's victory.

"Whoa, whoa!

A great deal of cheer goes out to the arena. It is the moment when the expectations of a possible imperial audience that was about to give up were born.

"The Next Strike! Both, before!

"Ooh!

Completely vibrant back to the arena audience. The next battle was Rutz, who prevailed in the first round. Expectations increase.

"Begin!"

Rutz on the imperial side also took the lead in the next sharp battle. In an instant, packing the time, I wave my sword up from the bottom up. He was a student of the kingdom that prevents it, but his body flows behind him, pushed by the momentum of Lutz's sword.

Further, by the time Lutz shook down the sword in reverse, the opponent had already completely disoriented. All you have to do is get pushed by Lutz's onslaught already.

He was pushed to the beginning of the fighting platform, and fell off the scene unprotectedly.

"Off-site! Next sharp winner Empire D Team Lutz!

"Whoa, whoa!

The venues are plentiful and exciting. That's the same with your history.

"It's the second win. After, one win."

Seeing the overwhelming strength of Lutz, Princess Sophilia is also unable to hide her excitement.

"Hmm. He's strong, isn't he? Which house are you from?

"The Viscount Kreutz family. He who serves Kamui Kreutz, to be precise."

"Oh, my God? Regardless of the Viscount Kreutz family, are you going to say they're subordinates of that child?

"Yeah, and so is the other Alto, by the way."

"The Viscount Kreutz family is Nort Ende. Is that right?"

"That's right?

"I am enough to be entrusted with Northende. Viscount Kreutz himself is quite a strong man. I see the next generation is alive and well in the Viscount Kreutz family."

"So you were"

"Next time, is that farce again?

"Well, so long as you win"

"But the kingdom seems a little shapeless."

"What?"

"He who came forward. That must have been vice generals in World War I."

"What do you mean?

"Well, let's take a good look"

"Medium battle! Winner......, hmm?

It was a referee who tried to declare the winner early, but when he saw students on the imperial side come forward, he stopped the words.

"You're still in the middle of a fight?

"Oh, I know. I'm the middle man."

Alto had a sword, and he stood.

"But just now,"

"No, because you complained a lot earlier. I decided to leave this time properly. Is there a problem?

"No, especially"

"Wait a minute! That's crazy! Wasn't that a sword earlier!

Even if there is no complaint about the judgment, it is on the Kingdom's side. There's no point in reordering this.

"I don't think it's okay to put it forward, though, do you?

"... cowardly"

"I don't know which one that is. You, you must have been a deputy general in World War I, right?

"What?! You, is that true?!

"Yes, no, it is"

The kingdom does not deserve to complain about the order.

"Well, nothing. I don't mind this way. Mr. referee, let's get started."

"... ok. All right, stand down!

And the people of your history who have become distracted.

"Come on, come on."

Prince Therese, who can't stand the laughter.

"It's not so much about competing for sword moves, it's about making each other look good."

"As, well. Because it's the Kamui people."

"From the point of view of chivalry, there is something unforgivable inside. Well, speaking of warriors, there's no reason you can't. It's no mistake to take the means to win."

"Right. But the fact that you came out here..."

"I guess we'll win. So this is the finals?"

"Right."

And no problem, Alto's victory was decided.

"Mid-level winner, Imperial D-Team Alto! This will make it to the Imperial D Team!

"Whoa, whoa!

An audience in the arena that boils very much to reach the finals of just the D-team.

On the other hand, it is the King's College that is not satisfied.

"What does this mean?!

Teachers at King's College, in the name of, the people of the Royal Government who have accompanied them, are stuck in the knights of the kingdom who also name their teachers.

"It's..."

"Didn't Team D talk about a bunch of falls?

"No, it was definitely that kind of information"

"What is that falling out! At least the strength of the next blade was overwhelming even when I saw it, an amateur of swords!

"But not with such cowardly hands"

"Is it a matter of means? They haven't lost a single one, have they?! Do you understand that?

"I know."

"What are you going to do? This way or this way, when it comes to defeat."

"You just have to win the finals"

A middleman from the A-Team came up with a mouthful there.

"That's right, but are you sure it's okay?

"It's okay."

"You're never allowed to lose. Oh, if this is the case, you should have just targeted the winner without the need for greed. I think it's unnecessary not to let the Empire win."

"But it was actually going well"

"That's a story if we can win. Absolutely, you can't lose, can you?

"That's not how they say it. Depending on the combination, I can't say it's absolute"

"Look at that! Even the A-Team has two students in general. Those two have lost, and you, the Knights."

"That's it!

"... excuse me. I was so excited."

"Let's think calmly for a moment. They don't give a damn about the knight's thanks either. Perhaps you'll be fine and change the order. Besides, even after that, I can look at this order and shift it for one person."

"Yeah, I can't believe they're using a handful like that that that's less than one person," they said around the head.

"There are two things you and Rudolph would surely be able to win"

"Thousands will! I am!"

"You idiot!

"Ah! I beg your pardon! Can't you win yourself, Mr. Egoli?

"I can't deal with that student named Lutz. Besides, the student named Alto cares about himself."

"That student?

"I wonder if you're hiding your strength. Oh, thank God."

"Why, on purpose?

"I guess it's to misjudge this one with a combination. It depends on the combination of stars. Is that why we won?

"Ha, right"

"Hey, hey, what about the place after all?

"It can't be absolute in star warfare. There is a good chance that you will get stuck at your feet."

"Really? That can't be allowed. If we're bad, we won't all be able to go back to the country."

"I hope it's not a star fight."

"What do you mean?"

"Change the way you fight the finals. Let me turn it into a winning battle."

"There's no way they drink that!

"Let them drink! It's a matter of numbers, we can't all fight, but whatever!

"You can definitely win if you're left to win"

"Absolutely."

"What about that student named Lutz?

"I can't lose. And there's also the hand of matching. That's why we have members here."

"Okay. We'll negotiate anyway."

"Thousand, no, Mr. Egoli"

"We can't lose with any kind of hand. You are confusing us, the knights of the kingdom. That beat the students, etc. He's right, he won't be able to return to the country. No, there's no place for me to go home."

More than a third of the students at King's College are actually knights of the Knights of the Kingdom. Most of them are new American knights who haven't been in the Knights for a while, but Egoli is different.

It is true that the period since joining the Knights has not been that long, but in the history of the kingdom, the youngest and the youngest man to rise to a thousand generals. That was Egori Mikhailov.
