The next day, all participants in the final tournament had gathered in each holding room. The tension drifts indoors, holding each other somewhere in front of the battle.
There the explanation by the attendant had begun.
"Ladies and gentlemen, there will now be a final tournament. If you are in the first war, you will be asked to head to the arena stage immediately after this. Game one - you're Mr. Dyke from here. Best wishes. Otherwise, you can stay anywhere in the holding room, in the audience, or in the aisle to the stage. But please come back by the time it's time."
Once the story is over, only Da Hui will remain with the attendant, and the others will begin to act on their own.
"Mr. Dyke, I'll have you admitted to more than this, are you ready?
"Yes."
To the attendant's words Dahui returns a simple reply with a temperamental look.
"Mr. Dyke has the best scratch number, so if he wins, he'll be this understatement again. - Come on, let's go."
The attendant, who left the room and walked out to the aisle, guides Dahui to the front of the stage.
Behind it Dahui decided to lean down a little and follow as he looked around the attendant's feet. Special, he wasn't nervous.
The opponent of Dahui's first battle was the one who won Group A, fighting with a unique sword that shortened the short sword even further. And two of those.
Dae Fai also watched the Battle of Group A, so he understood how the opponent fought. It was a lot of hassle anyway to go with the light figure, and the opponent, flirting with the quick attack, was quickly collapsed and defeated without being able to make his own move.
"We have to do something about that speed..."
Dai Hui shrugs and squeaks as he remembers the game. However, measures were in place in Dahui. I didn't dare ask my people for their opinion that I wanted to fight on my own when it came to this fight.
"Mr. Dyke, please, you're on your way from here."
Coming to the end of the aisle, the attendant who stopped there sends out a voice to Dahui.
"Thank you"
Smiling and thanking him, Dahui, who changed the atmosphere, looks up and leaves the aisle for the stage.
The expression was a concentrated, tight one, and I didn't mind the grand cheer that rolled out of the audience. Rather, I even felt like that would push my back to Dahui.
From the entrance opposite Dahui, the opponent stands in a loose position.
"Game one, both players have been admitted. This will explain the rules of the referee to both of us."
On-site announcements echo in the venue.
"The audience has a powerful defensive junction, so it's okay to use weapons and magic to get them to do it for real. Defeat will be if you admit to losing, lose your mind, or get off the spot. Please note that if you die, you will be disqualified immediately."
The referee standing between Dae Fai and his opponent gives a pale explanation.
"Okay."
"Me, too."
Dahui is followed by the opponent's reply.
"One thing to reassure you, there are a few full-time handcrafted restorative magic users here in the arena, so some injuries can be quickly healed. I hope you will fight for it."
Dae-hui and his opponent thought so, saying he wouldn't be relieved by the battle that could cost his life, but just keep snorting. Perhaps the referee likes to see hot fights more than he does with this as well.
- Please move both of you to the starting position.
The two people who were listening to the explanation in the center move away to the starting position where the landmarks are inscribed. One referee who confirms it nods and signals the beginning.
"First game of the final tournament, Dyke VS Horness...... here we go!
The double-swordsman Horness runs out quickly with the signal of initiation. Dai-hui decides to set up a sword on the spot to intercept Horness.
"... come on, you're gonna have a decent meeting with that guy Horness"
"You're just lucky you won out. Doesn't that mean you're on the right level to get this far?
In the fight against Horness, if you allow yourself to move ahead, you will only be able to denounce the attack and become a defensive party. That's because the audience understood it so well after watching the battle so far, a frightening mix of opinions emerges.
"Well, Horness has won every other tournament. Not according to my track record."
As the saying goes, Horness had participated in various competitions, with the outstanding result of winning, or getting to the finals. All those who had seen the other tournaments had even begun to judge it a Horness advantage.
Dai-hui at the time is attacked by Horness in a calm manner.
"- Because!"
No, when it comes to taking it, it waves down its sword with raw power and shoots off Horness's attack.
"... Gu! Hey, what a power!
Horness had previously thought of taking out Da Hui with a series of attacks as well, but the idea was to be smashed with this blow. The power of Dahui's first blow pushed his opponent overwhelmingly, twisting Horness's attack.
"Surely your attacking maneuvers are more than you can follow with your eyes. But it's not hard to follow with your eyes if you limit yourself to the first blow. So if you target that first shot, you're right."
Dae Fai sticks his sword firmly into the neck of the disfigured Horness.
"Damn, I can't believe you're making so many moves!
Horness takes a breath with a cold sweat holding her cheek to the fact that she can do it if she moves one step. He and the fierce pushers had the pride to come victorious over their opponents, but from the great glow in front of them, I felt they poked at the difference in character.
"Well, what do you want to do? Do you want to continue? Or..."
In a gentle tone, Dahui narrowed his eyes and stared at Horness.
"- Shit. I had no idea I would lose so fast..."
Horness was in contact with Dahui's gaze for about a few seconds, but if he could chase him, he put his arms down sloppily pulling out the power of his hand, which had a sword in his rear hand.
"Judge, it's my loss"
The referee who hears the proclamation will be astonished at the unexpected giving up, but will soon recall his role and make the proclamation.
"Keh, it's settled......! Winner, Dike player!
The audience is also quiet because it was so instantaneous from the signal of initiation. The audience and others who were talking about the Horness advantage were taken aback with their mouths open.
"... Oh, it was settled in no time... That strength that sealed off the double-swordsman Horness with one blow, Dyke, who still doesn't show the bottom - this looks forward to the next game!
The audience also understands the situation with exciting in-house announcements about unexpected developments - and starts cheering. Liz cuddled with joy at Dahui's victory, saying not to fall in the audience.
