「Yay, you came to cheer for me, thank you.」

「Yes. Well, it’s not like you can say that it’s a new thing after coming this far though. Anyway, please do your best.」

「So to say, I came to guarantee that Risa Haruna is the winner, right. ….Come to think of it, why are you not leaving this tournament？」

When Ruu and I came to greet Risa Haruna to cheer her on in her room, Risa Haruna’s meeting us with a smile on her face.

The waiting room of the fighter is quite big to the point that they can do a light warm up and there’s even food and beverage in there; it’ll become a room that’s comfortable to live and spend your time normally if there’s a book in there.

Risa Haruna’s quite relaxed, maybe because there are two matches today.

….Or not, it might be just her personality; this person isn’t that different from before.

After bidding our farewell to Risa Haruna who’s sitting on a comfortable chair, we leave the waiting room and go to see the first match.

And then, I recalled on the way to the arena, and I head toward Haruel’s waiting room and Ruu’s heading toward the arena ahead of me.

I hear her usual bright voice saying「Feel free to come i~n~~」 when I knocked on her waiting room’s door.

「Ah, Eiji-kun！ You came for me, huh」

「Since it’s finally the semifinal, it’s natural, right. Though I think Haruel is already used to a tournament, I’m especially came to cheer for you」

Haruel comes with a “pitter-patter” steps, grabs my hands and then shakes her head while showing a bright smile on her face.

「That’s not true, you know. I’m nervous, and I’m actually really glad that you came to see me. You’re going to watch my fight too, right？」

「Naturally. That’s also a part of cheering for you.」

「Uhn！ I’m so happy to have received such words. I feel like my power will be multiplied by hundred fold when you watch my fight.」

Haruel’s doing a gesture of showing her biceps.

So to say, she’s that much delighted when I came to cheer for her.

At that time, I noticed something. There’s something like salve, or should I say white powder, on her face.

When I point that out, Haruel sticks out her tongue with puffed up cheeks.

「There’s no way I can do all night-skin treatment to my body, right. It’s for the sake of my appearance.」

「I see, you’re extremely careful with that.」

「Because, this is important！There’s no way I can let my fans to look at my ugly figure！ AH, nevertheless, maybe there’s also a charm in a slightly failed make up…？ What do you think about such arrangements?」

「I think anything is fine.」

「So cruel！」

Haruel answers as such while moving away from me. Her reaction is as interesting as usual.

「Fufufu, it’s a joke. Well then, please give your best.」

「Yeah. Thank you, Eiji-kun. I’m really glad that you came to cheer me. I’m a bit anxious due to the you-know-what event. Even so, I’m relieved you came to see me. You must watch my fight properly for sure.」

I could slightly understand when I saw the anxiety within her eyes.

As expected, no matter how cheerful she’s trying to act, there’s no way she doesn’t feel scared. That’s just natural.

Even so, it seems that she doesn’t show it on the sur

face as there are people who’re cheering on for her. I respect her professionalism, I should learn a bit from her.

「Understood. Well then！」

And then, I start heading toward the audience seat.

「Too Slo~~~~w！ Look there, it has already begun, heave ho, here, your meat skewer.」

In the audience seat, Ruu already secured the front row seat, while eating her food. There’s fruit liquor in the cup beside her. This girl is already too used to this, isn’t she.

「So good.」

「Ri~ght, I found this after much trial and error [tasting the snacks].」

It seems that after buying food numerous times, she somehow managed to find the cart which sold the most delicious one. You could even say that she’s already a professional in this area too.

Is it really, really okay for the G.o.ddess of battle to become like this? No, should I call her, G.o.ddess of food?

As expected, the audience count is great, and the heat and commotion is great too.

While feeling that atmosphere, the loud sound of the gong resounded right at that point.

And then, it’s followed by an explosion of cheers after a momentary silence.

Haruel was making her entrance.

She’s waving her curved sword while smiling as usual.

If I’m not mistaken, her opponent is the robed magician. Well then, I wonder how this battle will tur―― EH？

Her opponent made the entrance.

But, it’s not the robed magician.

It was a masked man wearing a light dress and carrying a sword on his hip.

He was the same person with the one on Jackrosa’s testimony.

Right after that, that man vigorously entered via the opened door, and a staff-like person seemingly entered.

「THIS GUY！ HE’S THE ONE WHO DID THOSE THINGS TO THE FIGHT――GUAAA！」

「Don’t say things that will make this less interesting. From now on is the time for battle.」

He threw a sharp knife which lodged into the thigh of the staff.

The staff who entered together is trying to save his buddy in panic, while the snickering man is making his way toward Haruel.

「THIS GUY！ HE’S KILLED CONTENDER ALEX AND THEN SHOOK OFF THE STAFF！ NOW HE’S TRYING TO FIGHT CONTENDER HARUEL！ PLEASE RUN AWAY, CONTENDER HARUEL！」

The staff is shouting while being treated.

The voice of bewilderment can be heard from the front seat of audience; Haruel is also showing a perplexed expression.

It seems that she somehow managed to understand the flow of the story.

In other words, for the sake of fighting against Haruel who is said to be strong even in the arena, that guy forcibly placed himself on the opponent side.

What a dangerous guy.

You better run away since that guy is danger―― Contrary to what I thought, Haruel unsheathed her sword.

「Ho~, that’s a nice determination, oneechan. You must be happy, right.」

「It’s not like I never thought of fighting against you. No one will feel relieved as long as dangerous person like you isn’t arrested. That’s why, I’ll do it. You’re the one who ambushed Jackrosa-kun and Kean-san, right?」

「Ah, That’s right. And then, you too will end up one amongst them. Now, I’m going to devour you.」

「I won’t lose. Especially in this place.」

Haruel’s looking around in circle toward the audience seat.

And then, she raised the volume of her voice to maximum.

「EVERYONE~！ THIS GUYS IS THE BAD GUY WHO ATTACKED THE FIGHTER OF THE COLISEUM！ IT SEEMS THAT HE’S TRESPa.s.sING INTO THE ARENA TO ATTACK ME TOO. BUT DON’T WORRY, I WON’T LOSE. I’LL AVENGE HIS VICTIMS AND REGAIN THE PEACE OF THE ARENA! THAT’S WHY, DON’T WORRY AND BE RELIEVED！」

Many kind of noises present in the coliseum transformed.

Into a cheering voice for Haruel, since that just how much bewildered they were currently.

Haruel, who showed a calm face to confirm that, makes a turn about expression as she heads toward the trespa.s.ser.

The trespa.s.ser is laughing as if sneering at her.

「Kuku, is that so. In that case, that’s also alright with me. I’ll show to these guys who are too used being immersed in lukewarm water what a true battle is. I’ll show them a rain of crimson blood！」

The man is letting out a stifled laugh as if he couldn’t wait anymore.

Haruel’s also doing so.

And then, their weapons crossed against each other.

In the next moment.

「Uwaa, the decrease is too absurd！」

It happened immediately after Ruu’s words.

Haruel’s equipped barrier system, the amount which showed her endurance, the display which normally decided the match is shaved by almost 1/4 in one go.

In other words, it’ll be a severe wound if it’s a normal battle.

On the other hand, the man isn’t even showing any change on him.

If it goes by someone who’s doing a real combat, that will become the sign for a replacement.

But, if there’s no change on him, it mean that he’s nevertheless uninjured and basically didn’t receive any kind of injury in the exchange of blows just now.

「It seems that everything that happened till now wasn’t a fluke.」

My muttering is drowned in the cheering voice of the audience.

Be careful, Haruel.

「Kuku, it seems that you’ve the qualification to fight me.」

The a.s.sa.s.sin is laughing.

Haruel is correcting her two blade stance with a grim expression on her face.

「Aren’t you getting full of yourself? If you’re talking about qualification, you actually don’t have the qualification to stand in this place, you know.」

「Hahaha, certainly, standing on the venue for this kind of sport might be not for me.」

「It seems you clearly understand that fact.」

「Humph, it’s the truth after all. The opponent who I fought was definitely a strong one. The fighter of the coliseum is one of them. But, they’re not even on my level. Do you think that’s because of power？」

The question-like sword attack is attacking Haruel. Haruel is using her magnificent steps and then parrying one attack after another with her sword.

「So you mean there’s more to it！」

「Too many of them, naturally.」

In a moment, the man’s decreased the s.p.a.ce with Haruel in just a moment and then slashed with his sword.

The volume of the barrier decreased almost by half, and then it’s color changed to red as it started letting out a warning alarm.

「How could a sword which possesses no resolution to spill another person’s blood reach me？ Since the very beginning, our awareness toward combat is already different. You never have any intention to stake your life in combat. You’ll forget how to sharpen your fangs if you have never even experienced the thrill of a deadly battle.」

If it’s normal combat, it’ll be the sign for the end of battle, with Haruel’s loss. Her barrier is weakened and it’ll be dangerous for her if the battle keeps going on as it is.

But, the swordsman had no intention to stop the fight.

He raised his sword high overhead. [TL : upper stance]
