I was confronted with Noir.

The duplicity of noir is a very troublesome thing. If you don't do something about this, I won't have a chance.

'Come on, Noir, we're on our way!

Noir is coming at me while I'm thinking about it.

Interception with a knife extraction technique, just like earlier, is probably useless. For that reason, we have to intercept it another way.

I know there are a lot of ways to do that, but let's just say we do what we can think of right now.

"To you, this is it!

"What!?

"Oops!? Slade, is this a defensive posture!?

'Yeah? No, that's...!?

I'll set up a knife and wait for the noir.

This was the first thing I came up with in response to the challenge of withstanding that onslaught.

"Mr. Selik, what's wrong!?

'What Slade is trying to do is probably defensive sword moves... a traditional sword moves passed down to our house...'

"Become!? I mean, does that mean Celik player moves!?

What I took was a defensive posture I learned from Selik.

The best defense I know belongs to Selik. That's why I decided to intercept the noir in this position.

"Ha ha! I'm a little surprised, what's wrong with that!?

"I don't know!?

"Phew hah!

"Noir player, a blow!

Noir has waved one sword.

I'll prepare for the next attack while I take that attack.

'Slade, I took it! But this is still the first blow! The onslaught continues!

'No problem......'

"Ha ha! Not yet!"

"Damn!?

"Oops!? Noir player, second shot!

Noir has staged more attacks.

I move my knife and body quickly and take it.

The focus on defense and the reference to Selik's movements make it easier to accept than earlier.

"Slade, I took it!

'Our defense is an iron wall. Whether it's duplicitous or not, that doesn't change.'

"Ha ha!

"Whoa!"

I'll take the Noir attack.

"Noir players, further offense! But I'll take Slade players!

'Though imperfect, defensive sword moves will not break even the noir'

"Mr. Selik, the commentary has been skewed since earlier!?

My defense won't fall apart by the noir.

A boulder is a defensive sword technique called an iron wall.

"Damn... why can't it be torn!?

"Now, do you want to fight back!

"Gu!?

"Mm? Slade, pushed ah!?

'Is this...?

As I put my strength into the knife, Noir's body keeps retreating.

I thought you'd be somewhat frightened, but I'm surprised you've come this far.

Was the power of the noir lower than I thought?

"Hey, what!?

Asked how Noir was doing, he seemed surprised by something.

He's surprised he got pushed back, too.

"... right!

So I realized I had one.

It's about the absolute weakness of Noir's sword moves.

He may be fighting normally, but that should be inevitable.

"Noir, I see your weakness!

"Hey, what!?

"Mmmm!? Slade, I think we found Noir's weakness! What the hell do you mean!?

My words make a little noise around me, but I don't care about that.

"Your duplicity is certainly powerful, but it has its drawbacks"

"Said it was a flaw!? There's nothing like that in my duplicity!

"No, I do. You didn't realize the biggest weakness..."

"S, Slade, you're full of yourself!

'Is it a weakness... what the hell are you going to say...'

After all, Noir doesn't seem to realize the flaws of duplicity.

Then I'll try to teach you something special.

"Duplicants are more burdensome on their arms than usual for the convenience of dealing with two swords. You may not have noticed, but that arm is screaming its limits."

"Scream...? That can't be right, there's no limit to my arm."

"Then I'll prove to you... that weakness."

I'm slowly approaching the noir after words.

From now on, I'm going to make Noir know that in pain.

'Slade, after saying the weaknesses of Noir, we're slowly getting closer'

'... Sure, it could be described as a duplicitous weakness, but Slade should note what he intends to do...'

"I don't know, but there's no gap in this me... no!

Noir rushed out against me on my way.

The lightness of his appearance has not changed.

But it's about the damage to the leg.

The burden on the arm has nothing to do with it.

"Eat!"

"Noir, a blow on the way!

Noir's coming at me, waving his sword.

I wave a sword to match it.

"Secret Sword moves! Earthquake!"

"Damn!?

"Whoa, Slade, we intercepted!...... hey what!?

'Is this...!?

My blow hits the sword of the noir and transmits the vibration into the hands of the noir.

"Become!?

"Oh!? Noir player, I took away the sword of those who bumped into me!?

That caused Noir to drop his sword from one arm.

Noir doesn't seem to understand what happened to him at all.

"Then, stupid..."

"Earlier attacks are damaging to your arms. Your arm was so limited that you dropped your sword with that blow..."

"Ku......!

Noir lowers his body and tries to pick up his sword.

I dare not disturb it. to make Noir understand his condition.

"Become...!?

Noir can't pick up his sword.

Even if you can hold it, you can't raise it.

In addition to the strain of duplicity, I guess my blow made Noir powerless in his arms.

"Noir, I can't pick it up! Really, there seemed to be a limit on my arm!

"Slade's blow, that was decisive. Noir himself, thanks to his fighting, could not help but be aware of it, and so he disintegrated it '.

Now we're settled.

Noir is sealed with one arm. The power is halved.

"What do you look proud of..."

"What?"

But Noir hadn't given up yet.

Grab a one-armed sword and come at me.

"I still have one arm left...... so the battle is not yet!

"Noir......"

"Until the end, I'll have you hanging out!

"Noir player! I haven't given up just one hand! I wave my sword at Slade. '

'But this is...'

Noir waved his sword at me.

It's a lot of guts that you're still going to fight.

Then I must respond, too.

"Secret Sword moves! Earthquake!"

"Ugh...!

"Slade, mercilessly another blow! Noir players will retrieve the other sword too!

"Let's finish it! Noir!"

"Whoa, whoa!"

"Slade, one more blow! Noir's body will be torn apart!

I tore up the noir on my way.

It's an all-out blow, no detraction.

From the body of the noir, blood erupts.

"Mi, brilliant......!

'Noir player, I'm going to get on my knees! Can't stand any more!?

'They've sealed both arms, so maybe...'

Power falls off the noir and falls to the ground.

"Game over!

So, the voice of the referee sounds.

Now the game is over.

To carry the noir, a stretcher is brought in, I see.

'Noir players have fallen, and now we have a winner here!

From the venue, a loud cheer was heard.

"Its name is Slade! The 4th Squad's up-and-coming! It was a brilliant fight! Ladies and gentlemen, please send us a round of applause!

Plus, I hear applause.

Hearing that, I slowly walk out of the arena.
