- Just like old times, let's try a light match, shall we?

Lina was nodding without a word or two to that word called from Soma.

I was actually going to tell you from myself, but it would be more convenient if you told me from the other side.

Lina loosens her mouth slightly as she watches the girl, introduced by the name Aina, walk to a remote place.

Now, there's no getting in the way.

"Well, is it time?

"Yes, it's okay."

I nod at Soma's words, checking at hand just in case.

I'm gripping it. It's a wooden stick that I picked up falling around there.

A similar thing is held in Soma's hand, and it will only look like he's playing with a stick if he looks like it from the side.

No, that must be right.

What Lina once saw must have been something like that.

And rather than picking it up, I guess that's still going on to see the soma that looked like it brought what it was prepared for.

Perhaps Eina was looking at it too... so I had to wonder why.

'Cause if you were watching, you'd have noticed.

To the fact that it's genuine, just stick play.

Lina couldn't notice it back then, but it was intertwined with various elements, but it was late.

But that girl should be different, and above all, as far as the two of you seem to be close, you should probably be watching it over and over again.

Even if you didn't notice at first, then you can't possibly not notice that it's stick play.

If you're pointing it out there, Lina needs to do something like this.

"... no, that's just eight wins"

It was Lina herself who decided to teach this - to beat the soma until it was completely skinless.

There, no one else is to blame.

Even where I was resented... it was also decided that Lina would bear it.

And in the first place, Lina doesn't have the right to be able to rebuff others.

Lina should have just told the truth.

I don't have the skills, so whatever I do, it's useless.

He said it was just a stick game.

That's what I should have pointed out.

But so is that regret today.

I squeezed that on hand so I could put that thought in so I could confirm it.

"So... we're going"

"Um, you can come."

Soma's setup, which snorts at eagle fried chickens, is something you can't even call a setup.

Unlike Soma, Lina, who has also started to learn martial arts, understands that very well.

Because she didn't want to see such a soma any more, Lina decided to end it immediately.

Stand up - just one step into Soma's nostalgia.

Perhaps Soma will end before he knows anything.

That's fine.

I like that.

Knowing the overwhelming power and reality, I hope this is the last time you will imitate something unusual.

With that in mind - with all my might, I unleashed a handful of blows.

- Swordsmanship Extraordinary, Spiritual Concentration, Hand Reduction: Slashing and Handicapping.

That wasn't what it took to lick soma.

No, in a way, that's not wrong either... it's about Soma.

Premium is superior.

It is a special skill with only a few possessors in the world that only what is further called genius among geniuses can possess.

It is equivalent to the earliest disaster, such as using a sword technique.

Even with a wooden stick, people's bodies and so on would easily fall apart.

If they don't possess any skills, it's a shame.

So Lina focuses all her efforts on that so that Soma doesn't just die where she's seriously wounded dying -

"Huh?"

- Therefore, as a matter of course, he was lying on his back on the ground and rolling.

I didn't know what happened.

No, you're not.

I didn't want to understand.

What happened is simple.

He joked about the slaughter he had swung through in his nostalgia, and it was channelled to Soma as a matter of course, and he was struck in the head with a counter.

That was so unexpected that he held his leg back and fell on his back.

That was everything that just happened.

But that's impossible.

I can't even beat advanced if I'm extraordinary, assuming I'm kidding.

Extraordinary is, therefore, extraordinary.

"Hmmm... even though we do have a hand in hand, it's kind of like playing... but it's too much of anything, right?

"-!?

Moment after moment, I felt ridiculed.

I thought that's what they said about you.

In fact, it is Lina who is making fun of herself.

What did you say, such as doing everything you could, that no one else would be perceived as anything but ridiculous?

But contrary to that fact, it was Lina who was falling there.

... No, or maybe that's why.

Because that schematic was really what Lina wanted.

"... Huh!

He kicked the ground and waved his arms down at the same time as he stood up so as to dispel that thought that had risen.

That is incomparable with the earlier ones - but again, common sense could not get out of my head, but it is the late one.

- Swordsmanship special, mental concentration, and attrition: slaughter.

Phew, and right after I heard the sigh, I felt a shock in the head.

Still, I guess I didn't look unusual this time because I could have predicted that somewhere in my head.

The calm in my head - or the ideal part, is still whispering.

The result is natural.

If you're my brother, there's no way you can do that.

But the realistic part that makes up the majority of my head screams out loud.

That's not true.

That must not be possible.

Because.

'Cause it would be weird if it wasn't.

Otherwise, you'd be lying.

If my brother, who doesn't have the skills, is really... really, incompetent.

Why is my brother being treated like that now?

It doesn't make sense.

Tsuji doesn't fit.

If you mean to be ostracized because of incompetence and treated as something you're not... there was nowhere else for my brother to look at!

- Swordsmanship class, mental concentration, mindfulness: total discretion.

"Hmm... not bad, but not yet"

As my thoughts pushed me, the blow I accidentally unleashed with all my might was effortlessly flushed though dismally.

He was slapped in the head with a pound, but he never stopped there, probably because he wasn't convinced.

Yes, I wasn't convinced.

- Swordsmanship privilege, mental concentration, all-out skies, rambling: cherry blossoms, hundreds of flowers chaos.

Step in, wiggle, step in, wiggle...... every time I get hit in the head.

I felt as though I had become an instrument.

And the events we've been through over the past year go past our heads at the same time.

For Lina, when it comes to what has been the most impressive thing in the past year, it still means she was well praised, I guess.

Even at that age, I was praised for attending parties and other things as the next Duke and currently studying to be worthy of being the next Duke.

Moving on to the skill story, I was admired for saying I have a swordsmanship superior, and now this country is cheap too.

That's not just the outside story, it is within.

I understood what I was learning and was praised every time I went on.

Exactly. When the nose was high, they received praise from the tutors, as they did every day.

My mother would still be the one who gave me the most of those words.

Even the little things like nothing, the days of constant praise and not praise, probably didn't last a day.

Whatever I did, whatever I said, my mother praised me.

It's like I can't praise you anymore. Somebody's share, praise me.

In the course of the year, I was truly praised a lot.

From people I know, from people I don't know.

Lots of compliments.

Happy.

- At the bottom of my mind, I wasn't happy about this either.

- Swordsmanship Extraordinary, Spiritual Concentration, Thoughtful Heaven, Monstrous Power: Deep Righteous Flash.

"Hmm... It's not really bad, but there's just one more thing missing. Could it be that you haven't worked out much with people?

That would be natural.

Only a superior can compete with a superior.

Even the advanced ones don't hold together if this one is serious.

Or in the first place, a person with advanced swordsmanship is a first-rate swordsman.

There is no way such a person works as a tutor, and on top of that it is even a mistake to want.

Therefore, as a matter of course, those who came as instructors in swordsmanship were those with intermediate levels.

Well, the truth is, even that's luxurious enough, so swordsmanship classes are always something you do on your own.

The person just tries to teach in words, just not well taught.

Starting with the basic sword grip, swinging, walking.

Different things, until you have a heart.

I'm working really hard, even though I'm being seen in awe.

So.

The first thing I thought of when I saw the two of you today was maybe envy.

- Swordsmanship Class, Spiritual Concentration, Thoughtful Heaven, Monstrous Might, Signs Blocked Intermediate: Absolute, Assassination.

Did such emotions push you back?

What Lina was releasing at the next moment was what she wore after a year of swordsmanship classes, which could also be called a collection.

Technically, it's not that complicated.

That's all it is, simply that we've combined everything Lina can currently do.

But the effect is simply enormous.

I can't read the sword and its trajectory.

It's closer to calling it an assassination move than a sword move.

"Oh, that wasn't a bad idea. However, you should have thought a little more about your previous move. From there, the movement is revealed."

But he was still flushed, as a matter of course, and slapped in the head.

Still, I never gave up there, when I got here already, it's mean.

It even moves to make the blow worse at all costs.

That was, after all, yes... because I wasn't convinced.

For example, it can be that people who praise themselves outside don't know about Soma.

Praising oneself among tutors can be people who don't know soma properly.

When they praise themselves, they say that they are different from someone else, etc.

In the case of people who know about Soma, even if it's a compliment, it seems like they have something to say.

It can be my mother's attitude.

It can be that Soma doesn't seem to care about all of those things.

Above all, Lina wasn't convinced.

Because I felt like everything I did was being said to be pointless.

Everything I've learned.

A year I've worked hard for.

There's a sword technique that even one person has polished.

All of it.

But that was unacceptable.

I couldn't admit it.

It's obvious.

'Cause there was no other option.

I wasn't going to choose anything else.

If they're gonna deny it...

"... I am... I am -!"

- Heavenly Sword, Swordsmanship Premium, Limit Breaking, Humanity's Judge: Star Sword.

The only thing I remember was that I waved my arms at all costs.
