There are two people on the stage, man and woman. The man showed off his exquisitely well-trained body with proud to stir up the audience. He wields a giant sword that seems to be able to cut a tree in single strike. With one hand, he swing a giant sword from overhead while making buzzing sound to stir up the audience even more.
On the other side, standing to confront the man is a small tall girl around 14 years old. Her hair color is bright green. Part of her hair were arranged to stand with hairpin in such a way resemble two horns.
Is that pajamas? It just as I said. She wore a loose clothes from top to bottom, both of her hands are hidden inside overlong sleeves. This is the very appearance of someone who just woke up, not someone who is going to enter the battle.
However, what caught my attention the most are her eyes. On a small face where the childness remains, there are sleepy half-opened eyes with dark red color. I think she had swallowed the red ball, but I didn't see a crack anywhere on her body. How come?
That peddler said that he wanted me to meet ”that girl”, there is no doubt. And form his words, I came to understand that he was talking about this little girl I'm seeing right now, the northern hero Haosui.
The battle in front of me ended with an overwhelming victory of this Haosui girl.
Along with a war cry, the man swung his giant sword towards Haosui. However Haosui didn't move an inch, seemed sleepy and yawned.
The audience who didn't know about Haosui would have thought the battle ended with that attack. However, the giant sword never cut Haosui. The moment it touched her body, the giant sword crumbled down and shattered.
The audiences get all excited because of the sight, while the man turns his eyes at Haosui as if just seeing an illusion.
Well, even I can do the same.
There was no Haosui's figure at the end of a man’s line of sight because she had moved beside him. Then, with a fist that Haosui casually released, a man's body flew somewhere to unknown place out of the town.
The audience understood that Haosui's victory has been established, they raised a cry of celebration even without knowing about what was just happened.
[No less of “The World’s Strongest” .....Her strength is a real deal. Even I’m not sure I can win from her] (Grave)
[The World’s Strongest?] (Wazu)
I carelessly reacted to Grave-san's murmur.
[Yeah, that’s Haosui-chan’s nickname. Just like “The Whirlwind” of mine] (Grave)
[I see] (Wazu)
Certainly, that was one of inhuman strength. Ordinary sword will crumble just by hitting her..... Let’s not think about myself.
More importantly where is Meru right now? Does it mean she is in Haosui's place?
I restlessly look around the surrounding area but couldn't find Meru’s figure. I thought whether I should ask Haosui directly.
Our lines of sight meet when I turn my eyes at Haosui. He stares for a moment and slowly approach me. She speaks words while standing on the stage in front of me.
[.....are you the person that child was talking about?] (Haosui)
