Yomigaeri no Maou

The way Kyou and Yakou stand on the arena stage on the other side of the window facing each other is sharp and sharp as if they were well-grinded blades.

Until earlier, the King and Lottos watched with interest, not knowing how they were the two who were light-hearted payoffs.

In this room, it is not just the two of them who are watching the battle between Kyou and Yakou, but also Romeo, the Commander of the Kingsguard Knights, and Ias, the Deputy Commander.

Naturally, we have not neglected to be vigilant about our surroundings, and suddenly, even if someone breaks in, it is possible to detect them before approaching this special viewing room and stand with some care to make an interception.

But they were also concerned about the fighting tournament because they were warriors or to the extent that they did not forget their professionalism.

The King also told me beforehand to give a commentary if I had seen anything and noticed, so some parts of me said that this was also a job if I said it was a job, and I couldn't have seen it without.

At that time, they are also allowed to talk and exchange opinions.

For that reason, Romeo and Ias had an exchange of views behind the King and Lottos watching and welcoming the game, at an undisturbed volume between the two of them, watching the game in front of them.

"Ias...... what do you think of those two?

A streamlined knight with blue eyes in his golden hair asks that of the big man with a musculoskeletal brunette beard who stands next to him.

The bearded man - Ias, a streamlined knight - nodded Romeo's words, thinking a little before telling him to whine.

"That's hard. I guess that Kyou, my daughter, fights by manipulating daggers floating around her, but I've never seen anyone manipulate that many weapons at once. How about you, Romeo?

I was told, Romeo did too, and then he also gave his opinion on the young man who now stands opposite Kyou.

"It does seem hard to judge about Kyou... but so does a boy named Yakou. I feel like I have something I'm not good at. I don't feel that much magic... what is it?

Ias opens his eyes to such Romeo words, and utters unexpected words.

"... you too. As a matter of fact, so am I. He's got something to say about that Yakou or something. (...) Don't feel the vibe. You won't be able to be alarmed."

"It's rare to disagree with you... but then... I can't predict a settlement, can I?"

From time to time, both its character and its type as a swordsman are as if they were two opposites.

Opinions tend to be true and reversed all the time, but this time we are surprised at each other that they are not, and somewhat bitterly laugh.

Then, the two of them began to look at the stage with the kind of face that made this game extra exciting,

"... well, if you look at it, you know what I mean"

That's what Ias said, so Romeo also nodded and decided to focus on the game.

Shortly after the beginning of the game was announced, it was Kyou who started moving first.

With the puppy on top of her head, her movements, kicked hard on the ground, were very unpredictable, even with the impact of that outfit.

Each of the daggers floating in the air flies away in a fairly free direction, several of which go in a straight line towards Yakou.

A few others didn't take such an orbit as to follow a strange orbit and necessarily approach Yakou, and I don't know what the hell they're floating for, but I could understand that it probably meant something.

I have no idea what that is.

Targeted in various directions by several daggers, Yakou flips his body, while avoiding at a distance that is called a piece of paper.

The technology was quite sophisticated and even got the feeling that I was used to it.

Are you good at multi-on-one combat, or is this what everyone says about Eastern warriors?

Both Kyou and Yakou seem to have a sigh of admiration for their mildness.

Moreover, unlike previous contestants, they are not even wearing a single pair of simple protective gear, and if eaten with a single blow, they are not immune to fatal injuries.

Maybe martial arts weighing in on speed to the extreme is the essence of their moves.

The more I feel like that, the more polite and beautiful each movement is.

"It's like you're dancing"

Romeo blew it out slightly because Ias didn't look good on his face and said that to the wind currents.

"Sounds like you're joking about having such a dialogue with that beard... but you're certainly right"

Even a few unique moves, such as the Kyou, which allows many swords to swim in the hollow inside the boundaries of the arena, and the circle of Jacou, which keeps avoiding it even, seemed to be even dancing the dance that had been meeting since the beginning, depending on what you saw.

But this is only a battle.

There is no meeting between the two of them or anything else, all that's there is is the will to hurt each other and crawl to the ground.

That's why the interaction, which was like that dance, soon comes to an end, and the state of the battle between the two gradually changes.

The change was clear and beautiful.

The audience was seen at that moment.

Until then, there was suddenly a flame in the body of a single dagger that was just floating in the air.

In addition, we can see many things dwelling and manifesting themselves in each of the other dozen daggers.

Ice, thunder, water, light, darkness, etc. - every element present in the world has dwelt there, transforming the blade into something even more dangerous.

Moreover, something like a filamentous light extends from the patterned part of the dagger and connects with it extending from other daggers.

Just as dressed as a dagger and dagger pattern tied together in thread, but not the thread that exists in reality, it seems to be a magical thing.

That was evident as each yarn overlapped and slipped through even when it was about to get tangled.

"That's... what?

When Romeo squeals, Ias makes a guess.

"... Perhaps, but it's the kind of weapon that assassins often use? I've seen it before. Hidden in your hand or in your pocket, with metal thread, where you can drop a person's neck."

"I see, then I know too... the magic version of it... no, you mean the magic version? That kind of magic equipment, it wouldn't be cheap..."

When Romeo nodded and murmured so, he heard it with those long ears. Lottos showed off his knowledge with a smile.

"Kyou players seem to be from the East...... we know that that land probably seems to be quite advanced in magic equipment technology. Perhaps the magic appliance belongs to the Orient."

Thanking Romeo enough for the words, the king once again asked Lottos a question.

"As for Eastern technology, are ancient tribes (elves) also thriving in research?

"No… in the first place, there are not enough Oriental goods flowing… That doesn't mean that none of them are there. I thought it was coming from the East and I've seen some magic tricks. I have the impression that it was considerably better and more sophisticated than the average one."

That information was pretty valuable, and I felt like it wasn't a good thing to say, but it wasn't like hiding it to see Lottos' face either.

As with Romeo, the king asked more questions about whether he had doubts.

"After all, are the ancient (elves) analyzing and introducing the technology that said so?

I suppose that's what Lottos would be talking about, for example, the confidentiality involved in core technology.

But Lottos shook his head,

"No, no... I do have some technology to reflect... it's just that few things can't even be started in the first place, and that's what important technologies often have structures that seem to be stuck in. So... well, let's be honest, I'm not sure Eastern technology is familiar with us either. It's more useful to have magic machines like those in ancient ruins."

I said.

Magic guidance machines that are excavated very rarely from ancient and thought relics.

Many of its magical guidance machines, also said to belong to the ancient demonic tribes and to the ancient kingdoms, are often made using far more complex and sophisticated techniques than modern times, and with one they rarely come at a popping price.

It is also often the starting point for new technologies, rather because it is what states and large groups want.

However, too advanced technology is difficult to imitate or even analyze, and most of the mechanisms that cannot be analyzed, largely simplify the idea and the mechanism, make it a more degraded technology than the Magic Conducting Machine itself, but there is still a considerable difference in technology between modern and ancient times around it producing sufficient profits.

Either way, everyone wants to reach the technology of ancient times, but they say they don't know when that will be.

That circumstance is a king who thought even the ancient tribes (elves) would not be so different, but from the tone of Lottos it does not seem necessarily to say so.

So,

"Is it a magic machine... the ancient people (elves) have a high sense that even such advanced technology is their own..."

And so on, I've said something a little sickle on, but Lottos doesn't seem to get caught up in something like that on the boulder either and talk about it in the open.

I went back to watching the game by stating that the Magic Conducting Machine is useful, which is only a general theory, and that the analytical techniques are very different from those of other countries.

As king I felt very sorry for myself.

Alas, I was wondering if I could even ask something like a hint about the backbone of ancient (elf) connective technology, but it doesn't seem to work that well.

He shook his head saying he had no choice, and the king also returned to watch the game.

The conversation with Lottos ended up being unfortunate in itself, but if you look again at the stage that spreads out the window, the game seems to be rather an interesting development.

Once Kyou's dagger runs endlessly and is formed by magic that stretches out of its pattern, the lines are flickered for Jacou's neck and arms many times.

So much so that when the eight daggers made stripes, and the other eight daggers made borders, forming a grid and approaching Yakou like a wall, etc., I wondered if that young man would be torn into eight pieces.

But Yakou didn't lose either, and he kicked it out of his mind and jumped up into the air to avoid showing it.

Furthermore, for such a yakou, a grid made of magic lines stretching from daggers redirected from the ground to the sky strikes, but it also survives a long time by releasing magic in the air, applying a compelling thrust and avoiding it.

"... I'm trying, are you jilli poor?

Such a voice of Ias echoed inside the viewing room.

The words felt convincing that not only Romeo, but also the King and Lottos would snort, but things move towards the unexpected.

At the same time that Jacou reached the ground, avoiding the good attack of Kyou, Kyou looked stiff and flew away in haste from the spot where he stood.

If I looked at what the hell had happened, the place where Kyou had stood until earlier had a hole roughly the size of a potato, and after looking there for a while wondering what was going on, I could see the scene gradually coloring as the space swayed.

"... is that a bird?

That's what Romeo whines about watching.

As he said, there was certainly one bird in the place, sticking its thick, sharp mouth up to the ground and bumping its wings.

The relatively large bird, presumably a raptor, seems to be an eagle because of its size.

I thought about why such a thing suddenly appeared to the audience, Kyou, and the special viewing room, but the answer was clear in a way.

"... damn. It was a surprise, but it didn't work."

That's what Yakou said, tongue-beating and looking at Kyou.

Kyou heard it and said:

"Did you pretend that you were being pushed and fighting in the mood just now..."

Jacou said that. Staring straight at Kyou,

"No? That didn't happen... well, it turned out to be a good prep exercise. The production is coming up, Kyou. He wants to be my boss. Show me your strength."

That's what I said and laughed invincibly.
