- “Oh, and another thing.”
- Nanami held up her right hand and flicker her thumb smartly at Mitsubachi.
- “What did you call it, the Blunderbuzz?”
- “How…”
- Considering the caltrop lodged into his shoulder – the time had passed for asking questions and being surprised by the answers. As should be clear by now, Nanami dodged Mitsubachi’s longsword almost instananeously before countering – with none other than the Blunderbuzz!
- “What, so you had a caltrop all along – conveniently enough? Did I just miss the part where they told us you have some on you?”
- “You gave them to me – both of them.”
- Nanami stopped flicking her thumb and showed him her kimono. The caltrops had torn through the fabric – but only one was there.
- The other caltrop, the first Mitsubachi had unleashed, was gone.
- “This Blunderbuzz – it’s great that you can attack from so far away, but it’s too bad that with each attack, you give your enemy your ammo.”
- “Wha… B-But! Once they break skin, they should be almost impossible to remove! What about the barb –“
- “You see…”
- This time Nanami showed him her left hand.
- Its nails – were much longer than they should be.
- Almost like blades.
- Mantis Talons –
- “I gouged it free, skin and all.”
- “…!”
- Mitsubachi’s head began to spin.
- The shock of hearing that Nanami had gouged into her own flesh was incredible enough – but there was more. If this was the same caltrop that he threw at her, then it was poisoned, and now that toxin was traveling through his body!
- “H-How could… How did… When you only saw the Blunderbuzz – me, do it once…”
- “Okay – not like this is a compliment, but that is not an easy move. I was aiming for the center of your back, but it strayed way up and to the right… and even this close, it had less force than I wanted. Surprisingly hard to do. I wish I could have seen it twice.”
