Encouraged by his friends, and at the end, Asha told hi, Akito walks in the passage which leads to the arena

(Ugh…… it's so bright)

The e, there are lots of cheers, and the light fluttered It's really not good for his lack of sleep eyes, and his ears also considerably hurt

When Akito looks at the center, his opponent, Sylvia Lancaster has already been waiting for him He wondered whether she has a weapon or not, but he re from Asha

(If I'e into a large sword)

He thinks that it is a very convenient feature Will someone also make my sword like that I wonder, it's heavy~ after all, Akito had a wry s like that

Looking around restlessly, there are lots of people The students froic Academy And then—

(Father…… Mother…)

Looking at the guest seat, Akito found hii Yuito, and his mother, Lilia

(I will come to meet later, so don't run away……)

When he co his hand with a s her hand He wanted him to read the mood Doesn't he understand that his son's eyes is filled with resentment?

『Hou I haven't seen hiest human It seems that he is not just a fool Well, it's probably the wind dragon's power』

『Hmm, as far as I can see in master's memory, it seems that it's true Someday, I want to have a bout with him』

『Oops, that's right Well then, should we end this festival soon first, master?』

(Aiyo~)

When he is having such interactions with Feny, Akito has reached the center before he knows it He stood still for the ti, and when he yawned ”Fua~”, Sylvia frowned

”Oh my, sleepy?”

”Is that so, then after this match is over, you can sleep to your heart's content But, don't pull your hands out, okay?”

While looking at Sylvia who kept giving warning until the end, ”Aah, I'ht When thinking so

Because of that, he was looked with eyes that was looking at so by Sylvia, but Akito didn't ht about Rutia-senpai's lap pillow has won over that

”Well then, today's main event, the match between our princess, Sylvia Lancaster VS the son of the strongest spirit user, Hiiragi Akito, will begin Well then, knight leader, please give some speech”

When the student who is the ives his thanks once

”Eh on this day for my son Since I've trained him since he was sood ood match from both of you ”

Yuito sat in his chair after saying thatbesides hiot scold a lot yesterday

And after that, he had the urge to shout ”Don't raise the hurdle!” Akito was full of the feel of losing But, the venue got excited If he loses easily, the atmosphere after this ends would be scary

『Fufufu He got you there』

Feny is also laughing in his et the lap pillow That's what Akito thought

(Well then, let's lose quickly)

Akito yawned ”Fuaa~” once again, and stretched his body After that, the ain

”Please expand thedown 5-4-3-”

So the arena, and count down until thethat, Akito reached his sword on his waist, and Sylvia grasped her pendant Then,

”Match… Start!”

”Neck bastard Activation on!”

Along with that signal, Sylvia e sword as tall as her body appeared Akito was a bit surprised from that, but Akito had also drawn his sword already

Sylvia swung down her sith a shout, and Akito took a light breath after he round was smashed, it should be a pretty heavy blow

(Hmm well, she has speed Besides, it also looks heavy But… Rutia-senpai is faster)

Akito looked at that and didn't ish, since it's in the level where anyone can dodge it if they try a bit harder Besides, thanks to Rutia, Akito has abundant of experience fighting against large sword

(Well then, if I cut her here, I in though— it's no use, my body won't move…)

Because it see it down, she has a surprised voice while being hardened Perhaps she didn't think that it would be dodged She has a considerable gap now, but Akito's body doesn't ht away As expected, it's lack of sleep

For the ti a back step Then he yawns once Seeing that he is going easy on her, the jeers coic Academy Then the cheers comes from the academy side

”Hee… aren't you i Akito, you are the best”

Putting the sword on her shoulder, Sylvia said that with a sry

”I' easy on you It's just too fast, so I'm just surprised”

”Oh ht? Since there was a gap just like—- that!”

When Akito who tried to cals his shoulder, Sylvia ss her sword

Clicking his tongue a bit, Akito dodged it to the side Then, while kept raising his sword like that—-

–he unintentionally smiled

While holding not to smile, the sword dances in the orbit he raised, and then his power leaves his hand Then, a sound ”Gaan!” could be heard, and Akito's sas tossed to the air

The word that was tossed and spinning in the air, , and it stabbed the place a bit away

The venue beco that, Akito raised both of his hands After that, he waves his hands

”I give up This is my lose”

His sigh leaked as he murmured No, he let it In short it is an act Like this, he appeals to the spectators that he has made a serious effort properly

That situation is being watched by all spectators with a blank face Then, when Akito looks at Sylvia's face,

”Don't, Don't…… Don't joke with me!”

She was quite angry Well, that's obvious

But, Akito has no intention to ado home, and he wants the lap pillow Since the lap pillow is important, it has to be said 2 tih ”Haa……”,

”As the ru at all”

He sighed once again while saying so like that As if to say that it's unfortunate

But the princess' anger doesn't stop there When she pointed toward Akito's sith her large sword,

”Pick it up! I know! You do that on purpose, right!?”

She told Akito with a very angry look Then, he could also hear voices from the spectators

”Pick it!”

”You didn't get hit at all!”

”Don't ht of us!”

”Pick it! Then fight!”

While hearing that, he noticed that is the situation for the students froe yesterday, he is sleepy Honestly, he doesn't have the motivation to do it

Then, jeerings also come from the students from the Element Academy It's such a selfish request which he could neither be defeated, run away, nor defeat the enemy Akito thinks that they should do that by themselves

”Eh, Eeh~ The winner~”

Meanwhile, the students who is the moderator stands, and decides to end the o hoet a lap pillow, and sleep”……

”Wait a minute”

He could hear such fa, then when he…… looks up at the guest seat…

『アキト。お前……明らかに手を抜いただろ?』

”Akito You… obviously cut corner, right?”

–the leader of spirit knight order…… Hiiragi Yuito was standing

Akito thinks that he can't fool him as expected That's because he is Akito's teacher It's not exaggeration to say that he is the one who knows the th is

But, nevertheless, Akito ant to sleep in a lap pillow, even if he knows that he can't fool him, he decides to make an excuse

”Father Because I have keptsince yesterday, I haven't sleep There is no way I can move properly”

”Is that so? You have swung the sword for 3 days without sleep, right?”

As expected from his teacher Akito thinks that he remembers it well Yuito is especially spartan, he will decides an objective once a day, and if Akito can't achieve that, he won't let him sleep In other words, he didn't sleep He won't let him sleep

”But, father I, don't have any ic left—-”

”If you can talk that ht?”

Chii! As expected, he is a deue Looking at that, Yuito let out a sigh ”haa……”,

”Akito, the opponent of the princess That's why you should understand that you shouldn't go easy on her However, thisthis That's in! Or else, I will halve your allowance, you know?”

”Are you a demon!”

Akito was shouting because of that much poor treatment Besides, because it's the princess, there is no reason to go easy It's truly hard Even dodging costs hith

If he can't win over such situation, In case he lose Getting his allowance halved er That's because Akito who is ranked E, is unable to take a private request

Hearing Akito who shouted in panic, Yuito grinned

”However, if you win, I will double it Also it see inside this barrier You can use the first stance, you know?”

Ater saying that much, Yuito sat on his chair Then Akito who heard that, hit his cheeks a bit

—Ah, So I can use it…

Then the ful words, and then Akito's s

Meanwhile, Akito walks towards his sword Then, when he grabbed his sword, Sylvia smiled happily

”Oh ?”

”Aah, getting h”

He swung his sword, and relaxed his body Then, he felt that his sluggish and stiff body had been a bit relaxed

Confir that, Akito readied his sword, and stared fixedly at Sylvia Is the distance around 10ht? No, maybe a bit shorter

”Well then, Since I also feel reluctant, let me use a swift attack Ah, it's better for you to take a defensive stance for the ti, since you will be bloay”

When Akito said that with a serious face, Sylvia s told

”Well then, I'…”

He ic poithin his body Then when he lowered his waist a bit, trying to concentrate all of ic power to his sword and feet, he raised one of his foot

”Hiiragi style war arts, first stance—- Shungi Issen!”
