Ore no Ongaeshi: High Spec Murazukuri (LN)

Episode 110: Hunter Girl's Bow

Trials at the Holy Tower begin the Third World War.

This next challenger is Reesha, a hunter girl.

"Oh? You look pale. Do you abstain from:

"I... will not abstain"

To the Pope's inquiry of irony, Risha refuses with perseverance. Take a gentle, deep breath and try to regain your normal mind.

"I have met the Virgin..."

Being the village chief's granddaughter, she met the Virgin and had something she really wanted to ask. That is about the ordeal which the people of Urd received three years ago.

At that time the village of Uld belonged to the enclave of the Holy Kingdom. The lord then takes the adults away from the village, in the name of the revelation of the Virgin.

To visit the truth, Riesha was determined to take the courage to try.

"Pope, can I ask you one thing? Can trials be anything but one-on-one?

In such heavy air, I ask the Pope, the trial executor. I was wondering if group warfare by multiple people was also possible.

"If it's the same number, it doesn't matter"

"Well, then it's a waste of time. Let's go two on two next."

The Pope took his word for it.

I propose a team match by the remaining members.

"Yamato..."

"It's just like the usual hunting. Mr. Riesha will be fine."

"Yes. Thank you, Master Yamato!

My advice brings life back to Risha's face. I lose too much tension and I see her smile all the time.

"Then the last three games will be a trial by two! Those in both factions, move forward!

With the voice of the Judge Cleric, we proceed to the center of the arena.

Only two of my gear is my usual fighting knives. Other heavy weapons are for anti-spiritual beasts and are not meant to be used for interpersonal fights.

Reesha, the hunter, is also just a mechanical long bow (marionette bow) and a dagger. This test was not particularly restrictive on weapons.

"Yamato, Mr. Riesha, be careful... the other two are knights, working together extremely well..."

Leanhardt in the audience was shaking his voice.

Turning his gaze to his opponent, there were two knights with the same face.

"The last two knights are the Twin Swords Brothers!"

According to the Pope's commentary, which I can hear even though I don't like it, his opponent was a sacred knight of twin youth.

I see, except for the face, the hair and equipment are exactly the same.

"And the mock battle scores on two to two are higher than the earlier ex-Kensei and Blood Knights! That means it's the strongest pair on the continent!

According to the Pope's bragging that follows, rioting between large numbers is mandatory on the battlefield.

Even in such a battle, these double-sword brothers say they boast an overwhelming collaboration. He explains that we can understand each other's movements by heart and mind.

"Is it a collaboration of conscience? We'll do as we always do, Mr. Riesha."

"Yes, I will follow you, believe in you Yamato!

It's only been three years since I met Liesha in comparison. Compared to the history of fighting together, the opponent was overwhelmingly advantageous.

"So the final battle...... here we go!

In such tension, the final battle of the trial begins.

At the same time as the decree of the Judge Cleric, the opponent moves quickly.

"My brother comes from the right!

"That's what I was thinking, brother."

The double-sword brothers unfold at a brilliant time, left and right at the same time. And he attacked me at the avant-garde, pinching me.

"Some arms seem to stand."

"It's pointless in front of our brothers!

Two sword tips strike from left to right, at the same time.

Continuous strike by the breath of an abalone. It was a brilliant collaboration that didn't let the opponent fight back.

(That's something like twins...)

I'm a knife and a body surgeon, and I'm going to flush and avoid that collaboration. If possible, I want to set up a counterattack and defeat either one of them.

But the other side will attack you if you don't let it.

It was like dealing with a "single life form" with four arms.

And in this turmoil,

"Bow cover is pointless!

The Twin Sword Knight is skilfully moving around the place as he takes me in.

I was trying to keep Reesha's back away from being able to cover her with a bow.

This makes two to two team matches, actually, one to two. This one is brought to a disadvantage.

"Yamato, that situation is unfavourable! Keep your distance!

A voice flew in from Leanhardt in the audience.

But the opponents are also some of the continent's leading knights. He persists in attacking me, turning me down.

"Running away, you're good. But"

"By front, back, left and right, I've never been attacked before!

The movement of a double-sword knight suddenly changes.

They have both pulled a second sword out of their hips and launched an attack with duplicity.

A series of attacks with remnants by a total of four swords. An all-out assault is coming at me.

"I see, a corrugated attack from all directions..."

I swallow my breath. Identify the quality of the opponent's attack.

"But... slower than the attack of the Spiritual Beast!

Strike back the opponent's attack with a knife with that word.

The remnants make it look like countless attacks. But in fact, there are only four swords of a double-sword knight.

In comparison, the Spirit Beast of the Rock Salt Mine had dozens of pitch-black tentacle spears as entities. For me, intercepting four swords is nothing.

"Mr. Riesha, now!

Yes, Mr. Yamato.

Don't miss your opponent's frightened ski and give Riesha a decree waiting.

Her mechanical long bow (marionette bow) is specially made for excellent continuity. Two feathered arrows are emitted sharply.

"You idiot! in turmoil."

"Bow cover is pointless. Die with an arrow on your side!

Though disfigured by me, the double-sword knight comes in formation. He tried to prevent an attack by pinching me on the arrow ray.

As it is, it will be my back, dressed as Riesha's arrow pierces me.

The judgment of the situation around here is just those who reign at the top of the Holy Knights.

"But it's an easy move to read."

I feel signs of an arrow approaching from my back. Read Leisha's intentions that let it go.

And let your heart go, and let yourself be at the thought of that arrow.

Two sharp arrows thrust through my body.

"Stupid......"

"Hey, why... I have eyes on my back..."

In the next moment the battle had been decided.

With the attack of two arrows down his throat, the double-sword knight collapses with groans.

He stares at me with incredible eyes, dodging an arrow over his back on the verge.

"It's an easy thing. Mr. Riesha's arrow had thoughts. I just felt it and read it."

She believed me and let go of the arrow. He was reading ahead of his opponent's movements and shooting to accommodate them.

I became "blind" and hid the movement of the arrows with my body up.

"Oh, no... us with the twins..."

"You mean it was a collaboration of a history that surpassed..."

The double-sword knight had lost his word as he fell into the land of the arena.

They've been together ever since they were born, polishing sword collaboration. They look up to us both, far above ourselves like that.

"It's only been three years since we met. But the intensity is different."

Compared to their twins, it's only been about three years since Ole and Riesha met. But in order to survive, he has survived polarities that no one can beat, such as hunting and fighting against spiritual beasts and giant dragons.

The experience is elevated to an absolute sense of trust that transcends the "breath of Ayumu”.

"In just three years... this..."

"Trustworthiness... it was brilliant..."

The knights, who take a direct hit of the arrow down their throats, lose consciousness with a voice of praise.

"Tell him, Mr. Riesha"

"Yes, Master Yamato... Don't worry, Knight, it's a peak fight!

Her unleashed arrows were non-killing for training.

But the bow is a long mechanical bow (marionette bow) that penetrates even metal armor. The recipient will not be able to move for a while.

"Winner, Yamato Riesha group!

The voice of the referee echoes loudly into the arena.

Thus did the final battle of the trial come to an end with our victory.
