Sparkling battle.
It is an expression often used in various genres, such as comics and cartoons, and in dramas, novels and games.
At least it's not an expression that's often used in everyday life.
Haha! I think you're starting to enjoy it, too, after what you've been through!
"Shut up!
But it had become familiar to me.
A high-pitched sound resounded in front of me and red sparks flew.
As if to express those words, I'm now in the middle of that sparking battle.
Sparks fly whenever my mineral tree and the rapier of the gentleman over there collide.
How can your thin rapier stand against my mineral tree? You won't break it and you'll lose your confidence!
"Hahaha! This sword is specially made! It's one that was painstakingly trained by your giant! I don't want to be lumped in with those other things!
While complaining inwardly why it really doesn't break, we admire the rapier-trained giant and Yuuo's skill at minimizing the damage.
Contrary to our innermost feelings, our hands never stop working, despite our public claptrap.
A high-pitched whine and a heavy, crushing buzz echoes through space amidst the sound of clashing metal.
The other side takes a strategy of utilizing space, such as back and forth, left, right, and up and down, with the axis of the rush, while the other side realizes that it is not good to get into the opponent's ring, and I realize that it is not good to get into the opponent's ring, so I try to avoid moving from a certain point as much as possible in order to get ahead of him, and spend myself in a battle with the main focus on intercepting the enemy, looking around.
You are forced to struggle against a rapier, a weapon that you have never fought before, first to get your eyes used to it, then to adapt your body to the stabbing, and then to compensate for the loss of your weapon by a single blow.
The first round I lost the first round, the second round I lost, though it was better than the first, and by the third round I was fighting to a draw, and from then on, I was able to win and lose repeatedly.
In the process, I am beginning to enjoy this battle as if I have awakened the blood of the Japanese, a people who in the past were described by foreigners as a crazy fighting people during the Warring States period.
As pointed out by the man in front of you, at first you were angry at the politeness without question, but that feeling was replaced by another one the longer you fought, the longer you fought.
But you should be proud of yourself! I admire the magical power that has made this dullard into such a masterpiece, and his ability to keep up with my speed despite being human!
Thank you for that! It was worth all the hard work too!
Joy .
Isn't that a rare emotion in battle.
Still, maybe I can't help but feel this emotion.
After all, most of this company was either stronger or weaker than me.
The weak ones were, of course, the testers, including Kaido and the others.
Rather than fighting, they were more interested in training and guiding us.
Then the strongest were Suera and the other members of the demon king's army.
I don't know what I've been doing lately as I've been steadily improving my skills, but ever since I joined the company, I've been beaten up by the members of the Demon King's Army who had spent many years in battle.
There were times when I was helpless and there were times when I desperately fought back.
Still, I was often outmatched.
And I guess my regret is that I didn't have many opportunities to meet a balanced opponent like this.
It's not that I regret getting stronger.
I'm not afraid of fighting strong opponents.
But that's why you were looking for this kind of battle with a balanced opponent.
Even in everyday training, you can't feel the sensations you receive from your instructor.
There is something exciting about fighting with a superior man in front of you.
It seems insurmountable, but it's not.
But you can't think it's impossible.
Such a serious match between such exquisite abilities.
It made me very happy to know that it doesn't matter who wins or who loses.
You'll be able to see that if you get any more serious, you'll kill each other, so of course you'll be hiding your trump card.
I also use the Scream, but I don't use the connection with the mineral tree.
You'll be able to find out the best way to get the most out of your newborn baby.
If you are serious, the deadly air will be like magic and pressure, and it will come at me.
Based on my experience as a skull gentleman and a yakuza, I know that the deadly air becomes a physical pressure, so she's still just waiting to see what happens.
Still.
Huh!
"Sh!
I was putting everything I could into my power.
A red streak forms on my cheek and cuts across the other man's clothing.
Repeated sword flashes are serious enough to hurt each other.
One wrong move and you could be not only seriously injured, but dead.
Still, I was willing to let the atmosphere of battle take over.
Except to block the trump card, a skill that is sure to kill, we were both fighting with everything we had.
Old me, if I knew I was enjoying this situation, I would have seriously considered going to the head or mental hospital.
Whew.
What's the matter, are you tired?
"Well, you've shown more tenacity than I expected. I'm a little tired.
What, if you'd seen it, I'd be lying in a pool of blood by now?
Yes, based on what I've heard and my ability, I think I should be able to last five minutes.
Honest.
Yes, but you have defied my expectations.
"For the better? Or,
Come on, which one is it?
Before I can ask if I'm the bad one, Yuuo interrupts me with a smile.
The space of the battle is also stagnant as Yu-man takes a distance from you.
It is ironic that there are no gestures between the gestures, which can be a little annoying due to their theatrical nature.
On top of that, a noisy female tester often interrupts my concentration while I'm fighting.
Even now, the cheers go up even more as the man in front of you smiles and waves to the yellow cheers.
The male testers, of course, have twisted their facial expressions to say it's not funny, but after the fight earlier, they didn't boo.
Instead, they want me to destroy the handsome man, and they look at you with such passion that you can say, "What happened to our relationship until now?
"And? If you're going to do any more, it's going to be a joke, but what are you going to do?
"You say that? I'm making it look like they're going to cut at me at any moment.
"That's the emotional part of me. Hold up. This is the rational part of me we're talking about. You fought and found out. If you do any more, one of you will definitely get hurt badly. I'm not denying that. But we have important work to do, too. I know it's a bad idea to take risks where we don't have to.
There could not be a better time to stop the fight than now.
You can be sure that any more damage will be done to each other.
If it's a small wound, or a wound that can be reversed, that's fine.
But I know it from fighting.
This is the divide, and the next time the battle starts, we'll have a real shot.
Hmmm, I'd like to fight, but if the situation doesn't allow it, then backing off is a good idea....... Yes, let's stop here. The dark elf lady and the scary fallen angel sister behind you are about to get numb.
"You seem to be very understanding. Couldn't you have been the first one to get that understanding?
As you said, emotion and reason are not the same thing. I was still in a position to put emotions first, so this is how I fought. Isn't that a good way to introduce myself?
"Huh? How. I get it, you're a battle-hungry hedonist.
I can't help but hear a strident voice coming out of my mouth, but Yuuji smiles and says that's enough for me, and sheathes his rapier.
He gestures that the fight is over and says he has nothing in his hands to show for it.
You can't cut into it, and you suppress your feelings of incompleteness because your reasoning knows that any more fights are dangerous, so you cluck your tongue to show some annoyance at the gesture in front of you and put the mineral tree behind your back.
You've seen my sword, too. I think I got a good stab at it, if I do say so myself.
"What we eat is what we get.
I can't tell you how many times I've tried to break my wrist, too.
"Well said, it would have been a clean break.
We'll exchange sarcastic remarks, cool down the heat of battle, and finally be able to have a decent conversation.
You're still making a bad first impression because of all the crazy things you've done since the beginning, but you're still not going to fight someone who doesn't want to fight.
And then? Are you going to call yourself that?
If you don't have it, go home," he said, and clapped his hands as if to say, "I remember now.
I've never heard of your name.
"Well, some a**h*le just said to me that he was introducing himself and then cut me off.
Yes, and I think you're pretty fond of me for going along with it, too, right?
Yuuo's words were a bit reluctant, but I won't deny it.
Whatever happened, I was enjoying that battle.
That fact is unwavering.
So, I will neither deny nor affirm it by remaining silent.
With a smile on his face, the man put his right hand on his chest and slowly bowed his head and began to say his name.
I'm Carter Isperio, deputy knight commander under the Earl of Calicetera.
I'm going to be the one to respond to the gesture of a nobleman who is well versed in civility, and I'm going to respond in my own way and say my name back.
I'm Jiro Tanaka, I'm a dungeon tester for this company.
I would never say hello to you.
That's how bad the first impression is, but there's another reason to be blunt.
That in itself is my personal problem, so I won't say it here, but I'm not going to change my attitude.
"And then? May I ask how the vice knight-errant master made the mistake of cutting down to a commoner?
I'm aware that this is not the way to behave with someone you have just met, but I know that this is someone you can't trust, and I think it's not right to make up for someone who is showing their true colors, so I'll just go with it.
It is natural to be curious about the skill level of your rival for the position of general.
"What?
You should understand the value of your existence a little better. I was recommended by the Demon King and the Immortal King, who are both martial arts experts in the Demon King's army. And it's impossible to not care about them when you know they're human. It's still cute if you're like me and come to the front to confirm its existence.
The vampire, who called himself Carter, aka "the enemy combatant," said.
He even warned me about my attitude.
Be careful. This place favors humans more than you might think. But everyone in the demon king's army is less friendly to human kind than you might imagine.
"......
Do you think they will let you become a general in the first place?
"......
Like you, I'll take your silence as an affirmation.
The walls between races are thick.
Especially if it is a being that has been fighting for years. ......
I'm not going to argue with you because I've been naive in my thinking.
But I'm wondering what he was thinking when he gave me this advice.
Whatever the reason, from this vampire's (Carter's) point of view, it's definitely like sending salt to the enemy.
"...... What do you think you're doing? What's in it for you to go out of your way to advise me?
"Is it too bland to call it good intentions?
Of course.
If every word out of my mouth turns out to be a lie, I'm not going to give you any more information. After all, you and I are rivals for the position of general. I will leave before I give you any more advantages. I'm still a latecomer.
"Then be more patient.
There was a murmur of discontent around the word leave from Carter, but the vampire in front of me was great as he chastised it with a smile.
I let my sarcasm slide with a smile, and finally bowed to Suela, "Well, thank you for your time.
"Well, sorry to bother you. I look forward to seeing you again.
Carter left the training camp in a leisurely, light-footed manner.
Jiro, are you hurt?
"Lord!
The storm was gentle and habitual for a storm, but as soon as it left, Suela and Himikku rushed to my side.
Relieved that they were concerned about me, I wondered how the vampire Carter Isuperio would affect me in the future.
Thinking about this, I switched my mind from being in a state of battle to thinking about how the vampire Carter Isperio would affect me later.
Word of the Day
It's hard to see a person's true intentions, even over a long period of time.
Especially if it's a first meeting.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

I'm a little tired.What, if you'd seen it, I'd be lying in a pool of blood by now?Yes, based on what I've heard and my ability, I think I should be able to last five minutes.Honest.Yes, but you have defied my expectations."For the better?Or,Come on, which one is it?Before I can ask if I'm the bad one, Yuuo interrupts me with a smile.The space of the battle is also stagnant as Yu-man takes a distance from you.It is ironic that there are no gestures between the gestures, which can be a little annoying due to their theatrical nature.On top of that, a noisy female tester often interrupts my concentration while I'm fighting.Even now, the cheers go up even more as the man in front of you smiles and waves to the yellow cheers.The male testers, of course, have twisted their facial expressions to say it's not funny, but after the fight earlier, they didn't boo.Instead, they want me to destroy the handsome man, and they look at you with such passion that you can say, "What happened to our relationship until now?"And?If you're going to do any more, it's going to be a joke, but what are you going to do?"You say that?I'm making it look like they're going to cut at me at any moment."That's the emotional part of me. Hold up. This is the rational part of me we're talking about. You fought and found out. If you do any more, one of you will definitely get hurt badly. I'm not denying that. But we have important work to do, too. I know it's a bad idea to take risks where we don't have to.There could not be a better time to stop the fight than now.You can be sure that any more damage will be done to each other.If it's a small wound, or a wound that can be reversed, that's fine.But I know it from fighting.This is the divide, and the next time the battle starts, we'll have a real shot.Hmmm, I'd like to fight, but if the situation doesn't allow it, then backing off is a good idea....... Yes, let's stop here. The dark elf lady and the scary fallen angel sister behind you are about to get numb."You seem to be very understanding. Couldn't you have been the first one to get that understanding?As you said, emotion and reason are not the same thing. I was still in a position to put emotions first, so this is how I fought. Isn't that a good way to introduce myself?"Huh?How. I get it, you're a battle-hungry hedonist.I can't help but hear a strident voice coming out of my mouth, but Yuuji smiles and says that's enough for me, and sheathes his rapier.He gestures that the fight is over and says he has nothing in his hands to show for it.You can't cut into it, and you suppress your feelings of incompleteness because your reasoning knows that any more fights are dangerous, so you cluck your tongue to show some annoyance at the gesture in front of you and put the mineral tree behind your back.You've seen my sword, too.I think I got a good stab at it, if I do say so myself."What we eat is what we get.I can't tell you how many times I've tried to break my wrist, too."Well said, it would have been a clean break.We'll exchange sarcastic remarks, cool down the heat of battle, and finally be able to have a decent conversation.You're still making a bad first impression because of all the crazy things you've done since the beginning, but you're still not going to fight someone who doesn't want to fight.And then?Are you going to call yourself that?If you don't have it, go home," he said, and clapped his hands as if to say, "I remember now.I've never heard of your name."Well, some a**h*le just said to me that he was introducing himself and then cut me off.Yes, and I think you're pretty fond of me for going along with it, too, right?Yuuo's words were a bit reluctant, but I won't deny it.Whatever happened, I was enjoying that battle.That fact is unwavering.So, I will neither deny nor affirm it by remaining silent.With a smile on his face, the man put his right hand on his chest and slowly bowed his head and began to say his name.I'm Carter Isperio, deputy knight commander under the Earl of Calicetera.I'm going to be the one to respond to the gesture of a nobleman who is well versed in civility, and I'm going to respond in my own way and say my name back.I'm Jiro Tanaka, I'm a dungeon tester for this company.I would never say hello to you.That's how bad the first impression is, but there's another reason to be blunt.That in itself is my personal problem, so I won't say it here, but I'm not going to change my attitude."And then?May I ask how the vice knight-errant master made the mistake of cutting down to a commoner?I'm aware that this is not the way to behave with someone you have just met, but I know that this is someone you can't trust, and I think it's not right to make up for someone who is showing their true colors, so I'll just go with it.It is natural to be curious about the skill level of your rival for the position of general."What?You should understand the value of your existence a little better. I was recommended by the Demon King and the Immortal King, who are both martial arts experts in the Demon King's army. And it's impossible to not care about them when you know they're human. It's still cute if you're like me and come to the front to confirm its existence.The vampire, who called himself Carter, aka "the enemy combatant," said.He even warned me about my attitude.Be careful. This place favors humans more than you might think. But everyone in the demon king's army is less friendly to human kind than you might imagine."......Do you think they will let you become a general in the first place?"......Like you, I'll take your silence as an affirmation.The walls between races are thick.Especially if it is a being that has been fighting for years. ......I'm not going to argue with you because I've been naive in my thinking.But I'm wondering what he was thinking when he gave me this advice.Whatever the reason, from this vampire's Carter's point of view, it's definitely like sending salt to the enemy."...... What do you think you're doing?What's in it for you to go out of your way to advise me?"Is it too bland to call it good intentions?Of course.If every word out of my mouth turns out to be a lie, I'm not going to give you any more information. After all, you and I are rivals for the position of general. I will leave before I give you any more advantages. I'm still a latecomer."Then be more patient.There was a murmur of discontent around the word leave from Carter, but the vampire in front of me was great as he chastised it with a smile.I let my sarcasm slide with a smile, and finally bowed to Suela, "Well, thank you for your time."Well, sorry to bother you. I look forward to seeing you again.Carter left the training camp in a leisurely, light-footed manner.Jiro, are you hurt?"Lord!The storm was gentle and habitual for a storm, but as soon as it left, Suela and Himikku rushed to my side.Relieved that they were concerned about me, I wondered how the vampire Carter Isuperio would affect me in the future.Thinking about this, I switched my mind from being in a state of battle to thinking about how the vampire Carter Isperio would affect me later.Word of the DayIt's hard to see a person's true intentions, even over a long period of time.Especially if it's a first meeting.
