The Branded Female Fencer
War and Peace, Part 320 - Unified Martial Arts Games V, Bergay Vs Seite ① -
"There's a battle! Winner, Banessa!
In the fifth round of the Unified Martial Arts Games, the settlement of Banessa vs Rosetta was momentary. Against Rosetta, slashed abruptly from the front, Banessa flushed her pretence to receive that sword and threw Rosetta away.
It wasn't weird even off-site as it was, but when Rosetta utilized her reflex nerves to stay, she struck that rosetta pigeon tail, a blow to the jaw. He pressed Rosetta's shoulder and pushed her out of the room.
"Sorry, I'm not in the mood to cheer up today."
As Rosetta looked up at heaven and pounded, Banessa threw those words from above the arena and left. The audience was also stunned, but Banessa left without even saying hello once her hair was lifted, with an unusual expression.
Banessa was frustrated. And there is no other, that the upper body, which is number two, is dead.
"(You're finally alone with me. I thought this might happen all the time, but I didn't expect this to be frustrating for the fact that there are fewer people who exaggerate alcohol in the true sense! I wonder if I've become brittle in love, too.
But I'm gonna make sure the guy who did the flashback drops. even if that takes a form against Whisper's will) "
Banessa is full of confidence. I don't think I have a better warrior than myself, and if I'm in a position to take the lead, I'm confident I can beat anyone in this Unified Martial Arts Games. It doesn't matter who you can use magic against, you're confident you'll even try to outdo it.
But there is also one miscalculation in Banessa. It is the presence of a strong man who has not even participated in this Unified Martial Arts Congress. Whisperer doesn't know that this continent seems small and vast.
And the next game.
Dorothy planned to fight Shire, but those who know know that Shire is a life-threatening heavy state as well. Naturally, the game became Dorothy's undefeated.
Dorothy was politely thankful to the Quartet and applauded when she was told she was unbeaten. One of the most touching things about this sight is actually Jaeger's ancient exhibition group. Because it is an honor won by Dorothy, who went all Jaeger from basic sword training, without identity or upbringing.
Dorothy's talent is out of the group, starting with Alphilis, and everyone admits it. From scouts to slaughter captains, no one in the regiment says badly about Dorothy doing it without a single disgusting face, from herb collection to guarding, from carrying loads to warcraft crusades, if requested. Receiving the honor of her entering the Tensei match is as flattering as it is about me for the ancient Ginseng team and a good goal for the newcomer.
And as Dorothy tried to pull up to the holding room, Seite was waiting at the next entrance.
"Congratulations"
"Ugh! It's Seite's turn next!
"Oh."
Seite and Dorothy weren't unfriendly, but Seite's voice wasn't bare. Dorothy still smiled and slapped Seite on the shoulder, but she didn't know what to look like.
It's not like Seite doesn't like Dorothy. But as Alphilis and Bergay stared, Seite had a rare significance in fighting for himself. Beastmen fight is the existential meaning, victory is the honor. I was born out of tune with such an idea.
While I know that I am such a changer, I have not been able to know other paths, but I have been troubled by myself being engulfed in fullness if I fight and win. However, for the first time, I took active action on my own, knowing that the Beastman's Selection Unit would operate in the human world. I thought if we knew something other than battle in the human world, we would open a new world.
"(But in the end, we are fighting again, unchanged. That doesn't make any difference where you are)"
When it was known whether the battle would be honored by man or beast man, my interest diminished every time I went on to win this tournament. You can't lose badly to keep Jaeger and Gruzard from tarnishing their honor, but your next opponent is the head of a clan who can follow a Urus who even beats the Beast General. It was clear that he was not an opponent who could normally fight and win.
Seite headed to the competition venue so that he could not understand that his footsteps were heavy, but when confronted with Bergay, he was at a glance discerning its lack of hegemony.
"I see, I certainly have no hegemony for the Beast Man. Don't be inferior to humans."
"... what does that mean for sure"
"Until I saw the battle earlier and felt I needed to set up a little moxibustion. There is no more humiliation than losing to the unhegemonic. I have a responsibility to fulfill just because I am strong, even if I don't want to. Don't you think?
"It's just troublesome and annoying, such as responsibilities. I want you to leave me alone."
"I see, you're seriously injured."
Bergay accidentally went crazy and laughed. I am a person who has only thought about getting even stronger, but there are people in front of me who don't want to be strong enough to make you as strong as you want. What an ironic encounter, Bergay was driven not only by promises, but also by the urge to try to draw the seriousness of this beast man again.
