Muimui-tan

- One...

Danan comes at me shaking his iron nails. He said it wouldn't hit him so hard.

Right, left, extra, extra. and a red line mixes in there. Or a shitty attack?

I avoid the big right. It's Danan's to go with it. An iron ball pops out of my sleeve. Hey, it's dangerous...

"Avoid that one. Right... You have the power to predict an attack."

Even if it is an iron ball or something - maybe it's a dark object? Had it not been for my hazard sensing skills, I would have been in danger.

When the iron ball is released, it is stored back in the sleeve. Honestly, what's going on?

Even then, Danan shakes his iron nails and hits me. Right, left, you can afford to avoid it. More red lines mix with the attack. Another iron ball, yes, sir. I avoid iron balls popping up in minimal motion. Repeating the same attack is a reduction!

And Danan attacked me with an iron claw with an iron ball hanging from him.

- "Payment Poke" -

Strike off the iron claws with crimson red and keep spinning. The thrust - at that moment, Danan sprayed something over here. Something thin stabs one eye. Ouch.

"It's an immediate neurotoxicity. Don't take it too badly."

Oh, my body's paralyzed. Move... No, we're moving. It's not working. Hey, why?

Danang is alarmed that the poison has worked. Is this a chance?

Danang inadvertently comes close. He doesn't look alert at all. Now!

- "Hundreds of Flowers" -

Faster poking than you can even see the tip released from crimson. I can't get my aim right with one eye, but if I poke a multistage, I'd hit one!

"Hey, no poison."

Ha, you're alarmed! A poke pierces Danan's body. Red blood petals dance from Danan's body.

"What, but..."

You can't avoid it now!

- "Spiral charge" -

Crimson red draws red and purple spirals and approaches Danang. Danan desperately tries to make a gap between his skills and his skills, crossing his iron nails to prevent me from poking.

The crimson crimson claws open Danan's iron nails, making a gruesome noise. The spiral pierces Danang as it is.

It's over! Think!!

At that moment, my vision stains bright red. And Danan's body exploded. What do you mean?

My body is caught in a blast and blown away. Did you blow yourself up?

Confirm the blown body. The injury is… There are many bumps and abrasions, but there are no injuries that are likely to render it irreversible. I'm glad you have a strong body. I use the sidearm Naraka to pull out the needle that stung me in the eye. Looks like you're going to be spared the blindness.

So, what about Danan?

The smoke that was covering his sight disappears and the arena shows up.

At the end of his sight, Danan was blowing up without a trace. The area was littered with debris that Danang would have equipped, such as crushed iron claw shards and finely chopped cloth. Danan himself seems to have blown up without a trace.

Are we done here? Is this just the end of a suicide bombing? What is it, Sole?

I try to stab Crimson to the ground, stop. Why not, you can't use crimson to hit eight. Even so, is this the end... I'm not convinced.

- Two...

The sacks are cleaning up Danang's wreckage right in front of me.

Mr. Bag took me straight to the aisle.

"Congratulations"

Congratulations from Mr. Shirabukuro. But you're honestly not happy.

"Here's your reward."

I receive three pieces of paper and three large demon stones from Mr. Shirabukuro dying. Ooh, you've got more rewards at once.

Frou was waiting for me when I went back to the depot.

"Hmm. Looks like you survived safely. Come here first."

Frou invites. I make sure the little feather cat jumps over my head, and then I get after Frou honestly as it is.

What Frou showed me was a small private room.

"From today on, this is your room. And take this."

Frou throws some kind of vial. I take it securely so I don't drop it in the sidearm Naraka.

"What's this?

It's an antidote.

Heh? You mean the poison from the Danang war earlier?

"Hmm. Did Danan use poison? Maybe he's been cornered. Yeah, of course, but it's forbidden to use poison in the arena."

Oh, come on, you used forbidden stuff. Yeah? So, what's this antidote for?

"Hmm. To see your condition, you may be resistant to all sorts of poisons, but take it for once."

Ma, well, do you want a drink? Open the lid of the vial and drink the loose liquid.

'Can I ask you for an explanation?

Frou puts his arms together, looks at this one, and laughs cuckoo.

"I can't help it, I'll explain it to the potato worm I want to know. This arena is built on a small labyrinth."

Hmm.

"The labyrinth has the characteristic that magic cannot be used, and its power extends to the ground."

Hmm, because you use it, the arena can't use magic and is specialized only in battle?

"So. It was poisoned with it."

Hmm...... poison?

"Well, maybe the name poison isn't appropriate."

Poison, but not poison?

"The poison is a substitute for what happens when you try to get out of a special area where you can't use magic or use magic."

To? What? That pinpoint harassment.

"It's an ugly, crumbling, melting substitute. So I'm advising you, don't use magic, don't run away."

Keep it up, are you serious? I tried to use magic, didn't I? Was it bad? Even so, when was I being poisoned?

"When the buyer receives the bracelet, when the bracelet is removed."

Yeah? Doesn't that matter to the people who participate from the outside? Well, naturally.

"Why are you telling me that?

Frou laughs again.

"I won six times. Even those from outside are supposed to get third-degree citizenship if they win six fights in the arena. You can't keep poisoning citizens, can you?

Huh? Could it be a free flag?

"But you're still the property of this arena. I'm not allowed to go out there freely."

That's right.

"There's no more poison. You can try to get out as hard as you can. Then the best in the arena will come after you."

Already, you say something scary.

"I'll give you a reward that wasn't paid at last."

Receive 1,000 dead pieces of paper and one large demon stone from Frou. Ho, that was a pretty big reward.

"After that, you work hard and save up to 10,000 pieces of paper to die."

That's what Frou left behind.

Mm-hmm. It's like it's not free, like it's halfway there.
