Gaggy, Gaggy, Gaggy!

Take the heaviest blow you've ever fought.

Stream stones are brothers. Excellent skill in rigid swordsmanship.

I didn't fail to brush my arms to stay strong every day, but still, it's probably almost mutually reinforcing.

In addition, the strength of the divine powers that I had won was almost mutually reinforcing.I don't think I'm using any medicine to reduce my life expectancy.There is no strange way to increase the intensity.They must have had a lot of training.

It can be said that the difference in strength has not changed since I won the selection match...

Critical...

The rubbing blades make a noise.

"Apparently, it's not like I had a hug in my position.

"You must have taught me that this is the weakest guy.

"That's right...!

Gee, gee!

The rubbed blades bounced and the sound of high armor resounded.

Dano moves first, slashes from the lower level, and enters the upright position.

"Just up!

"Just now!

On the contrary, I'll slash it from the top and let it go.

Baggin!!

When the blades come into contact with each other, the surrounding people sound like they're going to step back.

Oraaaaaaa!

"Ooooooo!

Baggy, Baggy, Baggy!

Each other fires a slash that can cut the opponent in two with a single hit, and whenever the blade hits each other, a shock is emitted that shakes the air.

With this kind of battle, the people around you can't even get close.

Baggy, Baggy, Baggy!

It was a strange meeting that the sword didn't break.

The swordsmanship arms are still mutually reinforcing.

I was pushed repeatedly, but I was more unfavourable because my health was being shredded.

If I don't fight somewhere, I'll lose.

All the people below showed me that much.If I lose here, everything will be meaningless.

"Ooooooo!

Gaggy, Gaggy, Gaggy!

Danno's sword was played with all his might, and when they pulled each other one step back, it was a partition change.

It's still strong. Genjiro.

"Because it's the Four Demons.

"Kuku... not bad.

Dano smiles happily and grabs his sword again.

……………

………………

"... haaa!

Dano swings his sword down from the diagonal, and I swing my sword down so that it intersects.

Kid... Gin!

"What?!

"Oooh!

Zashh!

Dano's sword was thrown back and a chase hit his shoulder.

"Shit, it was shallow!

I wanted to decide now.

Danno immediately distances himself and readjusts himself.

"... what was that?

"... a trick I came up with to defeat a man named Sinya.

"Hmm... interesting.

It was a long time since I was defeated in a pure swordsmanship match.

It was almost a mutually reinforcing game, but it didn't take one step...

I was made to regret it, and I was planning to apply for a rematch soon.Though Sinya might hate it, would it make her win or run away?

I thought I'd stick with you until you took over...

Because it's about Sinya, I thought you'd take it even though you said something.

I wasn't expecting Dano to use the sword technique I was going to use at that time...

When I explain what I did, the moment the blades bump into each other.It's just a slight ripple...

The speed of swinging the sword is quite fast, even though it is a rigid sword.

It's not easy to squeeze a point in it, but if you can, you can create a gap for your opponent.

When your sword and the opponent's sword meet, people unconsciously predict the impact on their arms by looking at the intersection points.

Is it the tip of the blade, the abdomen, or the part close to the hand?

Depending on where it hits, the impact transmitted to the arm is different, and the recipient will apply a suitable force to it.

From day to day, few people are aware of such parts, and it is normal to go unconscious.

Therefore, I thought that if I could cheat the point of intersection at the moment when the blades hit each other, I would be able to remove the other party's prediction only a little.

The technique that I created while thinking about it was swordsmanship, rigidity.

The target is unrecognizable. Before the blade and blade hit, in a small amount of time, the target is forced to strike.Naturally, the power of collision remains intact.

It almost sounded too difficult, but I practiced and managed to do something about it.

I created a new swordsmanship.

After using the sword technique itself, I used my powers to practice more.

Using the power of God, you can also play a large part in the punch, and this sword technique has become much more powerful than expected.

From Danno's point of view, we thought that each other's blades would hit the inside of the blade, but the moment we met, it shifted and the blades crossed near our hand.

When we met in a different place, the force was not transmitted well, and we lost...

It was also effective because Dano had an excellent arm so that he could unconsciously change the way he applied his strength during the meeting.

I can say that I succeeded because I knew Danno well.

"... Kukuku.This is good. That's Genjiro.

If that's the case, I think I should be serious too.

I don't think Dano was serious...

We were definitely discussing each other to the fullest.

What Dano is saying is probably something else...

Dano took out a small vial.

A small amount of liquid is in trouble... a mixture of black, dark red, and dark purple.

In any case, it is not normal.

Hey!

* Giggle *

Dano drank the liquid before I stopped.

Palin!

The vial that slipped off Danno's hand hit the ground and shattered.

"Gu... ooh..."

"Dano!

"... Kuku... this is... the power of Yoshiki Hua.

"Shit... are the Demon Squads just stupid?

Perhaps what Dano has just drunk is a liquid that combines two types of Shiki Kawa that enhance his powers.

I heard it was eye drops...

"It doesn't seem like it's meant to be a drink..."

Goww!

You don't have to feel as sharp as Ranka.

The strength of the magic jumps all at once, spreading around.

"... not bad. It was an unspoken taste.

Apparently, drinking it is more effective.

"... that's it. Life expectancy will also shrink.

"... it's a lifespan that doesn't originally exist.I have no intention of sparing any more now.

That said, when Dano pulls the collar of the kimono, he can see a bruise shaped like a cherry blossom petal.

"You... cherry blossom spot disease?

"When Genjiro loses the selection game, go to the doctor for treatment and you'll find out.

……………

"I didn't mourn anything else.Rather, I am grateful.

At the end of the day, I could really exchange blades with you again.

"... that's why I joined the Demon Squad.

"A big game of a generation.For a man who's dying, there won't be such a sweet sound.

"Involving others in your big game will be different!

"... you're absolutely right.

"Then why!

"... in the current system of this island, there are many people who die because of vague (ambiguous) identity differences.

... Honami was one of them.

"Honami...?

Sure... he must have been Danno's fiancé before the Selection War.

I have seen my face several times.

"Honami's status was lower among the demons.

It was a delicate position where the distinction between civilians was blurred.

Those in that position are vulnerable to being targeted in many ways, from above and below.

………………

"There's nothing I can do about it, even if I'm not that famous... I feel sorry for myself.

"... that's certainly true.But the opposite would be true.

The difference in identity should lead to casualties.

"It will still be the same now.

If we want to reduce the number of people who die because of the ambiguity of their identities, we should.

If it's done, everyone will be satisfied.It may not be acceptable at first, but people get used to it.

"No matter how many sacrifices...?

"If you're asked if that's the right way to do it, shake your head sideways.

But even if you talk to the dirty ones, they'll just disappear behind closed doors.That is pointless death.

I can't deny Dano's words with confidence.I can't tell you that I won't do that...

"It could be the wrong way.But it's much better than nothing and a meaningless death.

"You may be, but what about the people of the city?!Do you know what's going on in the city now?!

It's a pile of bodies!

"I know.I will definitely go to hell.

But... no regrets.

No matter how much we discuss, maybe Dano and I will just follow a parallel line.

It's just that what I think is the highest priority is different... and I get itchy (peeling) when I wonder if it's so different.

"Besides, I won't be long anyway.

It is not bad to be able to fight you at the end of this cause.

"Selfish..."

Chucky...

Hold the sword firmly.

Really, this guy, more than usual, is a selfish excuse.

It was well understood that the system on this island had to be changed.

But it was an irrational death that had nothing to do with the people of the dead city.

"You might be able to convince me a little if you talk to the gods... but that's hard for me to say.

"Crap... I don't want to talk, I don't want to talk.

"Kuku... he's as straight as ever.

"That's what I do.

Chucky...

Dano squeezes his sword.

"So... which cause is higher..."

"... a match!!

Dunn!!

Each other's feet kick the ground.

"Haaaa!

"Ooh!

Baggin!

Full blow.

The mutually reinforcing forces tilt towards Danno by strengthening the power of God.

Gwah!

Your body is blown away a few meters back.

"Here we go!

Dano ran toward me when I was blown away, with a razor blade.

Baggin!

I put up a sword and grabbed the blade, but I was slashed before I landed on the ground, so I couldn't step on it, and now I'm blown to the side.

Gong, gong!

Jumps like a bow on the ground and hits his back.

Zuzaza...

If you don't feel pain, tell your brain and put your hands and feet on the ground to stop the momentum.

"Haaaa!

Dano, who was getting closer, shook me down from the top of the stairs with a low posture.Starting just below.

"Nh!!

Avoid the blade so it turns backwards...

Shit! Shit!

The knife and power that hit the ground dent the ground and crack the surface.

Because of the wide range of divine powers, rather than slashing it, it has the effect of striking the ground with a big battle or something.

I'm supposed to be shaking my sword, but I'd rather worry about being crushed than being slashed...

If you strengthen your powers and use them, your cold sweat won't stop.

"What's wrong? Aren't you coming?

"... I'm thinking.

"Do you have time... for that?!

Shit! Shit!

Avoid swinging down again.

If we meet normally, we'll be crushed.The first two hit hands are still numb.

I've become an opponent I can't win with my power.

And in rigid swordsmanship, it's quite fatal that you can't win by force.

It's only natural that you can't win in your area of expertise.

But those who cannot win cannot win.It's not a pleasant place to be, take it honestly, and think about what to do.

What works for Danno, who wields this stupid power...

First of all, if the rigidity of the product used earlier is changed, we can have some meetings.However, even if you put your sword together, two or three times would be the limit.

Next, Oni-Fire. If it's magic, even if it's relieved by magic, it's still a good blow to some extent.However, when you release magic, what kind of magic you release is the key.

If you use it badly, it's over.

I can only fight back once, physically and magically.There won't be a second time.

I was going to take down Dano and move on... but I think we're going to have to get out of here.

Shit! Shit!

Even though the power of God has been enhanced, it does not rely on it, and there is no gap in the movement.

We've decided how to fight… but we need to start by creating a gap.Well, what do you think I'm doing?

"Not yet!... gu!Ha ha! "

Suddenly, Dano spits blood out of his mouth.

Apparently, the effect of the power enhancement was superficial (like this or tempen), and the load on the body was more than imagined.

It is only natural to drink such a horrible coloured liquid.

Dano staggers his legs and his posture slightly collapses.

It's the only way!

"Oni-Fire! It's scattered!

Magic unique to Oni-Fire. disperse.

A few meters in radius, centered on me, countless little fireballs appeared earlier on the pinky finger... just magic.

It is also low in flammability and almost non-lethal.

However, when a small group of fireballs suddenly appears around in the dark, you will lose sight of me due to the difference between light and darkness.

Dunn!

I kick the ground and turn to the left of Danno.

"Did you think you could beat me like this?!

Boom!

When Dano waves his sword sideways, all the surrounding fireballs are scratched out.No matter how strong it is, it would be irregular.

"That's it!

Towards me, who was about to shake his sword down, Dano cut back his sword and shake it horizontally.

This is no place to pull!Push!!

"Haaaa!

"Ooh!

The moment the blade hits. I manipulated my magical powers to scatter the strike point.

Bagheeeeeeeeeee!!

Fragments of metal scatter in front of you.

The sword in my hand was struck by Dano and shattered to pieces.

You did your best.

How many have you slashed so far?

Come there, Dano's stupid god and arm blows.It is stranger not to break.

"I got it!!

Dano shook up his unbroken sword and stared me in the sky.

It's inevitable.

I understood it intuitively.

No matter how you scratch your feet, you won't be able to avoid this blow altogether.

Then!

"Summarize!!

Scream at the wildfire.

Boo!!

A pale light envelopes my upper left arm.

Juwwwwww!!

Severe pain that burns meat.I don't feel the heat.It just hurts.

Still, without being frightened, I stick my left fist out against Dano's face while squeezing my body to the right.

The sword that was swinging down was eating around my left shoulder.

Conversely, my fist grabs Danno's right cheek and deforms the shape of his face.I don't feel like hitting anymore...

Dogoh!!

Zashh!!

While my fist hit Dano in the face, my left arm was slightly cut from around my shoulder mouth.

"Gwaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

My punched Dano's face is wrapped in a pale flame.

Guu...

Blood comes out of the cut shoulder and reaches the knee for pain.

"Wisp... please stop the bleeding.

When you look at my face, the wildfire approaches the cut left shoulder and brings out a pale flame.

Shuuuuuuuuuuuu!

"Gu! Uuuu!

It was painful enough that I couldn't stop sweating cold, but I swallowed my teeth and managed not to lose consciousness.

"Hah... hah..."

Your health is at its limit.

I can feel my feet fluttering.

"... come on. Come on.

I'll stop screaming, pick up the sword that fell out of Danno's hand, and stick it out toward the rest of the enemy.

"I can still fight.Come and die.

…………

There are only a few left.

I can fight now, and I can do something...Maybe...

"What's wrong?

You can't walk away from me anymore.Probably fell before walking to the enemy's position.

If you don't come from the other side, your remaining health will really be empty.

"Here we go!

………

Enemy soldiers slowly approaching at their feet.

If you win, you make money (already).

If I lose... I'll leave it to the younger ones.

Make up your stomach and hold the sword with your remaining right arm.

"Come on!!

Boom!! Gosha!!

The moment I felt comfortable.The enemy that was supposed to be in front of me flew right next to me at an incredible speed.

Woof!

Dear Genjiro! Are you all right?!

In front of her was a black moff-mov and a woman on it.No, you're already a woman.

"Rato and Sena?!Why are you here?

"You're better than that!Rat, wait a minute!

Senna comes down from Rato and runs towards me.

"Hey! If I get off Rato in here!

Shh shh shh shh shh shh shh shh!

"Dangerous... ah..."

In the meantime, I really destroyed my enemies.

Woof!

Rat bragging.

"Hahaha!!

Dear Genjiro! Don't move!I'm going to apply some scratch medicine now!

"I'm sorry..."

"Please don't apologize... for such a serious injury..."

"Don't look like you're about to cry.Wounded to save everyone.Honor wounds, huh?

Sena looks strong and quite delicate.If I show my weakness, I may not be able to move.

"I'll be fine.I have applied scratch medicine, and I don't exercise like this.

"... I see.I won't tell you again. But!Genjiro is being deported to the castle!

That's what Sena said with her index finger up.

I guess what I'm saying without fear is that I inherited the blood of my father, Touji.

I can't wait for Senna's generation to take the lead.No, it may already be that close.

"Rat, I'm taking Genjiro!

Wafu!

When Rato opens his mouth, he sucks me and puts me on his back.I'm not in a position to complain, let's keep it quiet.

Besides, I was hoping for a ride with Rato.

Sena was on her back, and we went back to the castle once.

Before I left, I saw Danno's body only once, but I felt like I couldn't say anything.

The battlefield is still intense, with the sound of swords and screams rising all over it.

"That's..."

"Dear Ranka! I'll pass!

Ranka pushed up the front line in front of the entrance and pushed the opponent back a lot.I was a little relieved to think that my flashy attack meant something.
