9:just wana say this, sorry guys but i kinda made lot of mistakes this chapter, the author suddenly decided to use 3rd POV for the whole chapter, i was already used to Ryua's POV which made this kinda hard for me to translate. Though at first i was depressed about it but after reaching the 2nd half i understood the charm of the 3rd POV, it was good for describing fights, though i would still prefer Ryua's POV when they are not fighting





ep39 Avangard Tougi Taikai 7

Author notes:
This time i tried writing in 3rd  person(TL: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO)
what it will be after is still undecided

======================================================================
at the clinic Seigel visited Rupee who was looking at the ceiling.
Somehow both of them form a party and was also acquantances.
Rupee noticing Seigel's figure, he smiled as he welcomed him.

"I saw you match. that was disaster"

a usual disaster, he caugh a strange expression but Rupee didn't have any questions about it.
its because he himself faught it himself that he understood.

"that sword, i don't really recognize it"

"it looks like it wasn't even caught by your <Star Dust Memory>"

Seigels understands the nature and the menace of <Star Dust Memory>.
more of the basis of that was earlier during the match, Seigel from the outside look like he was calm but, inside him he felt its menace.

"you can say that the Sun saw it. It happened right under the star, the fight and so forth that i recored, you pull it out from the space and then develop it. It calculated that guy's movements and traits and predicts and seals the technique. clearly saying that its a foul play is not exxagerating it.
is that guy's sword not recorded?"

"His fights look like it was recorded but his movements was of that a different person"

just as he thought its somewhat odd, Seigel cold stares crawled around the the clinic.
a part of the superior a rank has already been sent around the the Imperial Capital as a security, as to not hindered the festival they move under the water's surface.
Every year all soldiers should have been dispatch , newcomers with shallow experience altogether are being given day-offs ,or those given odd jobs should be the one left.
Fortunately, just before Ruppe was attacked he did something like a defensive magic, it wasn't able to go as far as give him sever wound.
Once Rupee is healed, he decided to probe in after that.
Seigel decided in his mind and Rupee also has the same motive.

"Tifelia-san, the match, the match-"

Tifelia was finally woken up by Ryua's obstinate shaking.
she rubbed her eyes and look around, then she finally understood the situation.
without forgetting to say "good morning", Tifelia as always didn't carry any weapon,  she didn't also wear any armor and ascended up towards the match grounds.
Tifelia moving drowsily was unstead, Ryua from behind saw her off hoping.
to finally see Tifelia's Unknown strength.
wondering if Tifelia is really stronger than Ryua herself, in contrast to that expectation, Tifelia was doing a big yawn.

"Its finally have come around! This tournament's biggest expectation, The entry of <Master Knight> Tifelia-chan!" (TL: OTL 「ついにやってまいりました！本大会の大目玉、マスターナイトのティフェリアちゃんの登場です！」)

The cheers were vibrating, while on the stage they something like a Big wave rolled down. (TL: big wave is like when the the spectators cheered in a wave)
There were also people who wrote something, what was written was "Tifelia LOVE". The words length won't already lose, for the Master Knight to be able to move the hears of humans.  (TL: TT_TT 文字数の長さにも負けずにこれだけの人間の心を動かしたマスターナイト。)
Ryua also admired her a little but.

"*sigh*.........so noisy......."

"When i am about to die, I want to hear that sigh while dyiinnnnnnnng!"

She had her hand on her face, the annoying cheers continued on. (TL: she did a facepalm)
That gesture might have made her fans burn up more, there were encouragemend and at the same time with those appearance.

"And then her opponent, The mysterion man, Inoro!
With the expection of using magic, there aren't any more data of him!
what in the world, will he show in this fight!"

"Attack magic is probably his specialty"

"I already know that! Well then, shall we try and see!
1st round, 4th match!"

Inoro glared silently toward the bored-looking Tifelia.
He was more shorter than Tifelia, its like he has a body of a child.
other than his robe he also kind of has a mysterious air, a meeting of a child an an Adult, from this scene the victory is already obvious.
"This is not an opponent for Master Knigh" someone of the spectators thought.

"Tifelia VS Inoro!  Start!"

even though they said to start, Tifelia was the same as when at the prelminaries, as usual she wasn't willing. Inoro also didn't move waiting for Tifelia to make her move.

"Are both of them checking on each other! there aren't any signs of movements at all!"

"since in a fight with mutual skills, the match can be decided in an instant in the situation.
really thinking about Inoro, from the outside you can't grasp his real strength"

Looking at the 2 who were standing on the match grounds, Ryua swallowed her saliva.
More than the one called Inoro, as expected Ryua is more curious about Tifelia.
he might've run out of patience, Inoro moved first.
However he didn't use any magic, he slowly walked towards Tifelia.

"h-hold on! what does Inoro plan to do ?! and then Tifelia-chan is-"

Coming very close Tifelia finally noticed him and partly opened her mouth, winking, Inoro saw her having something like playing dumb expression.

"umm, what is it?"

The spectator expecting a fierce fight, and then Ryua also was let-down by this outcome.
"Tifelia-san what are you doing" Ryua felt irritated and her behavior was bad, she was tapping the floor with her feet.

"<Master Knight> Tifelia. If judge as not worthy to be fought, she won't even be looking at them. just as acording to the data"

"*sigh*, is that so"

"However, this is will becom fatal"

And then before Tifelia herself Inoro quickly cut his own hand.
blood appeared on Tifelia.
Her mouth was partly opened, even Tifelia would be taken aback from it.
Not wiping the blood that was dripping, more than herself, from head to the feet of her oponent, up until now, for the first time she looked down on him.

"ummm......
this, what are you going to do about the cleaning for this?"

"You don't need to worry. since the need to pay it will soon be gone.
so you will be going to the other while doing that stupid face of yours."

"eh, of course you wouldn't want that"

".........i give up"

The live reporter, spectators, commentary, all of them went silent at the devolopment of the match you can't even call it one. "I give up" the referee not responding to those words Inoro once again said it, he repeated himself that he gave up.

"ha? what was that?"

"I said i give up. yes, the victory goes to Tifelia"

one way or another the match has been aborted and Inoro descended from the match grounds, and vanished.
"sigh" Tifelia seems to want to say something about there was nothing to be delighted about and descended from the match grounds.
even though Ryua wanted to watch Tifelia fight, hardly understand how it ended, it was a let-down, the fist she was clenching on top of her soldier loosened.

"just poured some blood and end? whats with that?"

she wasn't asking anyone, Ryua was talking to herself.

"aah geez, the blood won't get off.......*sigh*..... ah, but i saw someting that its good if you tap and cover it with the end of the daikon, i want to tap it with it but.........."

Tifelia's gaze changed from her dirtied clothse to Ryua.
Tifelia smiled at Ryua and Ryua couldn't help but fake a smile.
Ever since the time when Ryua has went out of the Caves of hell, she never met a person of this type.

"its going to be your match next right, i watched you previous match intently yo know. that was amazing, you were going easy but to have that much power......"

"so you weren't sleeping....." (TL: not sure 寝てたんじゃ)

This person easily saw through Ryua that she was going easy, Ryua thought if it was this person she can easily see through her mind.

"ah, very soon its really going to your turn now"

"well then, 2nd round of the finals, 1st match! Ryua Vs Hekaton!"

Hekaton was already at the Match ground with a Daunting Pose.
Ryua was disorganized an jumped towards the Matchfield, Hekaton was laughing.
Hekaton was looking down on just about everything, Ryua hated this large person.
Coupling with Ritta's case, in Ryua's mind she was wonder what she is going to do in the match, she had suddenly decided. He wasn't effected by the time where Ryua defeated Amane in one hit, after all hekaton has probably decide that he will win, and he won't just defeat his opponents.
Hekaton will crushed and also trample on the person's heart and destroys it.
It was like the time with gammetts, Ryua heat was smeared with fury just like a blue flame quietly burning.

"You, perhaps are you thinking that since you defeated the muscle woman in one hit you can do it to me too?"

"I think i can you know"

Ryua didn't want to talk anymore with that person, vomit will come out.
Ryua's voice was in a low tone, you can really think of her as a little girl, she was just like a knife.

"brat"

Hekaton rotated his prided hammer once in the sky and from their he did a massive strike on the match grounds. If the opponent was normal then it would be enough to threathen them but girl opponent wasn't totally affected.
At the caves of hell even at turning point you can feel the overwhelming feeling from a monster that even your hair will stand out, Ryua looking at an adult proudly swinging a large toy can't feel anything from him.

"Shitakka-san, that girl with a monster like strength unsuitable with her build will she be well match with Hekaton?" (TL: TT_TT i'm crying シタッカさん、小柄な見た目にそぐわないあの少女の怪物じみた強さはヘカトンに通じますかね)

"It depends on the potential. you can't just see the real thing before the match"

"This guy, is only saying potential"

The referee standed between the both of then and finally inform the start of the match.
guessing that the 2 of them had an unusual atmosphere,  the referee instantly took a back step away from them.

"now then, it will be starting.
thats right, i'll tell you something good.
The kind over there , even a person like me, will appreciate me.
in short Strenth is Justice, didn't you listen to his speech from earlier.
last time, i who murdered someone , wasn't rejected from participatin, in short its pretty much like that"

Hekaton held his hammer with both of his hands, he brandish the same way as earlier , is what you'd think, he put as much strength as he can to strike.
a crack and a rumbling ground, that one strike was enough to show all about his strength.
However, Ryua look at that was only having a really uninterested face.
Her eyes stayed the same, and her mouth was framed, it was evident that she was looking down on him. (TL: OTL 目がすわり、口がくの字な時は相手を軽蔑している証拠だ。)

"Amane-san from my previous match was an amazing person. Thats why i reflected properly on the way i fight, but for you its different"

"Babbles!" (TL: other meaning was to say; to spatter; to prate; to prattle; to babble; to grumble; to murmur; to brawl but its also a vulgar word -d-)

He moved the hammer to his left hand and without delayed he was striking ryua.
"I won't be hit by such thing" ryua said and only dodge, this time the hammer was on hi right hand  and attacked.
like bullet holes, what was left was the stamp marks of the hammer on the field, like an instant it increased. (TL: its like using a gun to hit a wall, that holes just suddenly appears-d-)
He was controling his hammer like it was a taiko-like ryhthmical fierce attack. (TL: google taiko if you don't know what it is -d-)

"HeiHei! heheihei"

The tone matches the timing as when the bullet holes increased. due to the rumbling it build up fear and the spectators raised screams. due to the vibrations , there were girls at the spectators seat crying because of it.
The storm of hammer attacks, were evaded lightly and a easily moving seeming to imitate sound. (TL: kinda not sure そんなハンマーの追撃の嵐をリュアはひらりと擬音がつきそうな動きでかろやかにかわしている。)

"w-what an intense attack! You won't even have a chance to attack back ryua!" (TL: this is the live reporter -d-)

"that is what you call Hekaton's <Grand Ram> it srikes covers a large space and the vibrations makes even the opponent to to take on a proper stance, draining their stamina and the time they get tired they would be stopped with a strike.
and then even a if the opponent is an expert, he would have to evade the the hammer striked from the begginning to the end.
most of all, if you look at it closely, that terrible Hekaton himself is enjoying as he drives his opponents into a corner"

"for some reason, For the first time I feel like we have recieve a proper explaination this time!"

the incarnation of a big hammer fell down over head on Ryua.
The match ground has become the drums of Hekatons Hammer.
the incarnation of the hammer and at the same time  each of the shockwaves attacked Ryua.

"Yoiyoiyoiyoi! yoyoiyoitto!" (TL: sadly i think this things has no english equivalent -d-)

as of now the Match grounds has been destoryed to the point that it won't be used anymore.
in the consideration that A ranks will be figthing, it has been said the match ground is made of the stone which its hardness is next of that of an Orihalcon.
nevetheless, the match grounds has been dented by the force.
Hekaton was instilling fear on Ryua with his strenght, He believed that she is was getting exhausted.
However the fight that was shown before Ryua, her expression haven't change from the really uninterested expression.

/ / /

"That Ryua, just what is she doing?"

"oh, gantetsu-san, so you came"

"more than that being unable to resist, its more like he is not making them resist. but is somehow strage. Seigel, what do you think?"

"it seems the situation at the clinic is in her head, she might have a child-like scheme"

"Ryua-han ih noht heeeming at" (TL Ryua-chan is not scheming that) (TL: Roel is eating while talking -d-)

Roel was stuffing her mouth with Butter Potato while desperately protesting but, she was only able to pursaude them after properly swallowing the food. (TL: kinda not sure バターポテトをほおばりながら必死にロエルが抗議したが、ちゃんと飲み込んでから話せと諭されて終わっただけだった。)

/ / /

"do you think you that you can keep evading"

Ryua wasn't replying as usual, just easily avoiding the attacks overhead."i wonder it if i should do him in in one hit" Ryua thought but she waited just a bit more. since she has decided to completely defeat him.

"So you hate me? but, look and think. there will always be someone that will laugh down at those beyond them.
To point out the weak from a group and exclude them and give them a piece of mind. Its good that i'm not that kind of guy, i would still be better...........just kidding.Humans are beings that can't just do that you know" (TL: i wana dig a hole あいつみたいにならなくてよかった、オレのほうがまだ……なんてな。人間そんなに出来た生き物じゃないんだよ)

While he was talking , a little spark of electricity was from his arm was influxing his hammer. (TL: i totally don't know what influx means -d-)
the electricy burst out sounds and gradually produced a loud sound, before long it has covered the Hammer

"seeing a scum like that raising to an A rank makes me excited, once i again i can crush"

The expressionless Hekaton, for the first time he showed an unpleasant smile.
That smiling face, Ryua cannot help but feel unpleasant.
"more ugly than a monster" that was Ryua's direct impression of it.
Ryua immidiately undersood what that "scum" meant ,it was pointed Nikka.
She clenched her teeth and didn't drew her sword from her back.

"you are more worst of an Old guy than Grundom"

Neither Grundom or Hekaton changes essentialy, however words won't do it, no matter what Ryua say it won't move them. As if ending the opposition, Hekaton did a big jumped, and  he had a stance that is about to be swinging down his hammer.
it was beyond the Colloseum that you can look over it, Hekaton showed how much strong he is himself to all the humans.

"I'll teach you. In the end the world is all about power! no matter what they do, if they don't have it its nothing but a howl of a loser! They won't be able to protect anything!
And then you are powerless in front of this reality! that is that guy...........with this you might die, resent me as much as you want!
THOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR HAMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEERR!"

Electricity streamed from the hammer and at the same time it came falling down, it wasn't aimed at Ryua but at the center of the Match grounds.
not even a human, or even a superficial floor monster won't be able to bear the voltage.  the body and with all of its cell will be annihilated, and then living creatures will stop moving, this was how strong Hekaton's strongest skill was.the light and sound of the <Thor Hammer> made the spectors not see the match grounds and cover their heads, and protected their own bodies.
Hekaton's skill is nothing but fear. (TL: TT_TT 恐怖以外の何物でもないヘカトンのスキル。)
From the start he planned to kill Ryua.
regarding him, from the start he was fine with whatever.
"crush the spoiled brat". other than that he has no purpose.
when the time he achieved it, he recieves a pleasure that reaches the summit.
yes, it was only the time when he achieves it.

"what the"

-----The light disappeared, in the middle of the the match grounds was Ryua.

The smiling face from Hekaton vanished.
Ryua dared and took on the <Thor Hammer> in the middle.
She pinned down the hammer with one hand.
The electric current has long ago scattered away, right there wasn't a form of a girl who couldn't defend.
and the cracks started to appear, and then it was smashed into pieces.
with just a grip , the specialized weapons was pulverize by a girl, Hekaton was just.....looking.

"old man, you're weak"

with that one phrase, Hekaton was filled with rage.
without his hammer, he attacked the girl with his brute strength.
however even with his biggest technique called <Thor Hammer> was defended by the gir, brute strength won't be able to.

"you, you fuckin braaaaaaaaaaaaat!!  Don't look down on an adult! just who discipline this pissy girl! (TL: i totally don't get heka-tan meant by pissy girl, it could also mean urine daughter -d-)

"so weak so weak, you really did great putting on a big act. I am way stronger than you"

"DIEEE!"

Without Hekaton's weapons, by no means his melee combat his weak.
with his physique and brute strength, its unarmed strenght is even more beyond of that of a monk.
However, at the Caves of hell where Ryua faught, if ever one of the monsters from inside goes outside then it can ruin the world, that was just how a monster they are.
Ryua didn't have any way of knowing details about the Monsters inside the Caves of hell.
right there , she fought  a monster called <Giga Atlas>, just one punch from it, it can destroy a country, they were possesing such strength.
Ryua remembered  that giant she didn't know that it had such a name, while purposely letting Hekaton hit her head.

"gi-giyaaaaaaaaaaa!"

it was like hitting a person whos hardness was that of a steel, Hekaton's fist recieve a pain, that pain was exactly like that.
Hekaton's righ hand was completely broken.

"running away from something you can't do, something you can't face, trampled with regrettable thought as if cursed. Ever since i was a child, i have always endured it. you didn't have to really go that far to do that to Nikka right. after the match apologize"

"j-just what are you babling towards my you braaaaat!"

He did a punch with his remain left hand, and then kick, and the girl standing there, he wasn't even able to move her. not understanding that their difference, Hekaton's pride won't already allow him to recognize her.

"j-just what kind of support magic did you recieve? don't you know the rules, this is you see, f-foul play you know. Referee! Disqualify this guy!"

"I won't, from what i have seen, there wasn't anything like that for the whole time..."

"You blockheard just why did you say that! oi! don't you guys know?! This guy is cheating!  you understand right!"

spectator seat, those in standby Tifelia and Kweed, and The King who was overlooking.
Hekaton raised his voice to everyperson, seeking for the same opinion.
pathetic, no matter who he looked at they would look away.
Tifelia was only interested in Ryua, she was the only one she was looking at, at the very beginning she wasn't even looking at Hekaton.
mostly likely also that voice didn't even reach her ears.

"Hekaton you lost"

"so noisy would you shut up!"

no matter what he does, the situation won't change for the better.
The Referee was also surprised about Ryua's strength , but after the match he was shocked by it.

"y-you what's your level?!
answer me! answer me! answer me!"

"999........"

"Oi, Referee! this guy is doping!"

Ryua planned to end this by now.
and crush hekaton's self confidence.
and make him take back what he said to Nikka at the clinic.
that was what she thought at first.
that though was aborted once Hekaton uttered his next words.

"that brat........isn't he your companion?  hehehehe, don't look down on crusher. If i don't like someone, i would chase after them until they are one the earth. you already understand right? its because of your fault that your blonde friend will experience something horrible. hihihihihihi.........now then what would yo-ku!"

that was Hekaton's last words.
Ryua's fist met with Hakaton's Cheek. (TL: i'm shipping  fist x cheek )
His skull was even pulverized as her fist easily caved in, Hekaton's body crashed right under the spectator seats.
all of his teeth were broken, his whole body was flinching and lost his consciousness.
The block crumbled down, the rubble above Hekaton fell.
it all happened in an instant that the referee wasn't able to react and dumbfoundedly watching.

"ha?! a, lets see"

The referee rushed over where Hekaton was, before soon he will declare Ryua's Victory.

"Victor.......Ryua"

they were noisy up until the middle of the match, the live reporter and the commentary was silent for a while having nothing to say.
Due to Ryua's inhuman like stregnth they were too overwhelmed to think.
The kings expression didn't change, just watching over the match.
However he was clenching his hand, he was delighted about something.

The only one who were delighted and  shouted banzai from the seats was Roel and Cynthia. Gantetsu who should've known Ryua's strength from the <Poison Salamander> had no comment.

"just as i thought, a kid"

Seigel just followed a sigh after his murmur, it didn't reach Roel who was delighted.

"well..................ufufufufu......"

Tifelia was in good mood as he was tapping with her feet ,unsuitable for venue which was taken back from the situaion.
after several seconds, after the declaration of the end of the match the great cheering was raised.
