Chapter 283 - Country of Sakura, Cherin and Seven Holy Swords [54] (2/2)

(I don’t have any more hidden cards.)

After this, I have no choice but to endure both of their onslaught and pursue the “time out” winning condition.

(Ah… I wonder why this happened…)

I calmed myself down and glanced to the right.

The wall that separates the men’s and women’s baths.

Beyond that wall, Ria, Rose, President, Lilim-senpai, and Ferris-senpai must be soaking in the warm hot spring.

(Ria, are you having fun?)

The men’s bath is hell.

I came here to heal the tiredness of my training, but for some reason I ended up in a match against one of the Emperor’s Four Knights and the former strongest swordsman in the world.

Honestly, this is much tougher than my training.

(But I can’t whine…)

I only have to hold on for a short while longer.

A little bit longer and Ria and the others will leave the hot spring.

And then Sebas-san and Bacchus-san’s evil plot will be thwarted.

I took a deep breath and assumed the Seigan no Kamae stance.

「Now then, only about five minutes still left… It’s now the final act.」

「Kid, it’s about time to finish this.」Bacchus-san said.

The two readied their stances with an extremely serious expression.

「Bring it on!」

In this way, I faced the final battle to protect Ria.
