Chapter 112 – Difference in Power
“Hmm? Junior. My eyes are puffy.”
These were Chinami’s words for the day I came to eat at the restaurant the next morning.
I answered by pressing down on my eyes and massaging them.
“I can’t sleep well.”
“Why?”
Why, because Tetsuya was snoring.
He said he didn’t sleep and then caused an earthquake in the room, but I was very much at fault for trusting him.
It was fortunate that I slept uncomfortably in the break room with me in the middle…
If I had stayed up all night with my eyes open, I would have been very annoyed right now.
“I guess I couldn’t adapt because it was a new place.”
“Your junior has a very sensitive corner.”
“Maybe it is. Did Master sleep well?”
“I never woke up until the alarm went off. I think I was tired from the massage.”
“That’s fortunate. Shall we eat?”
“Yes. Today’s side dish is rolled egg and grilled mackerel, but ask the lady for more so that you can have a hearty meal. I have to prepare for self-training after lunchtime.”
Chinami looked around her, lowered her stance, and brought her hand to her mouth.
Then she spoke in a small voice.
“I heard from Lenka before I went to sleep… I think Lenka will have a sparring match with his junior.”
I thought she would stick with me by putting up another senior, but she does it herself?
I don’t even have to use my hands.
Well, as much as she was confident in her own skills and wanted to punish me herself, this was natural.
“Okay?”
“Yes. Juniors are talented, but they don’t know the rules, right? They say there is a need to inform them by directly bumping into them.”
To hit directly with the body… That’s too erotic to say.
“It doesn’t matter to me…How does the training go?”
“I don’t know. Until then, Lenka didn’t tell me.”
“Okay. I was supposed to have a sparring match with Miura, do you have time to do it?”
“A fight with junior Miura? Was it agreed in advance?”
“The two of us made an agreement… But the manager doesn’t know.”
“Uh huh…! Beginners who are still not good at wearing protective gear shouldn’t sparring freely…! Emotions may escalate, and we can’t even decide if we’ve won properly…!”
Chinami who puffs up her mochi-like cheeks and bruises me.
I said, scratching the side of my head as if I was embarrassed.
“I thought that the manager or master would supervise…”
“For such an important matter, you should ask us first… Juniors are really reckless.”
“Now that I think about it, Master’s words are absolutely right. Sorry.”
“Hmm… Still, it’s nice to see him admit his mistakes quickly. As for Dalian… I’ll try to discuss it with Lenka first.”
“All right.”
Chinami, who nodded her head as if satisfied with her innocent answer, brought her tray.
After receiving her rice and side dishes with her, we exchanged morning greetings with her staff, and as we moved to the table, we ran into Lenka entering with Tetsuya.
“Oh! My friend, welcome. It seems that you often go out with junior Miura these days, right?”
In response to Chinami’s bright greeting, her Lenka glanced at Tetsuya who was smirking beside her.
“I was just coming to a restaurant and we met by chance.”
“Is that so? But my friend Lenka also has black under eyes.”
“I didn’t sleep well.”
“Come to think of it, even your best friend doesn’t sleep well in unfamiliar places, right?”
“Yes…”
After saying that, Lenka looked at her Chinami as if she couldn’t stop it.
Judging from the situation, it looks like Chinami was talking in her sleep…
She probably held Lenka’s arm tightly in her sleep, or put her leg on her body.
Chinami is always like that when she and Lenka sleep.
“You seem to have the same side as junior Matsuda. She said that even her juniors couldn’t adapt.”
“Okay…?”
Lenka’s gaze turned towards me.
A look of surprise. Then I shrugged her shoulders at her and sat down at her table and started scooping her rice.
You need to eat a lot to prepare for training.
**
Inside the training room in the mountain hut.
The members who went through more intense training than yesterday had a smile on their faces even in the midst of hardship.
This is because from now on, free time, which is self-training only for horses, begins.
Only four people remained in the training room, where all the members who were full of thoughts of going to the valley had left.
It was me, Tetsuya, and Lenka and Chinami.
After the training room was roughly organized, we gathered in one place without anyone saying anything.
Perhaps because Lenka and Chinami are so close, the scent of blueberries and peaches wafts through her nostrils.
The problem is that it contains the musty smell of Tetsuya.
When I see a guy who throws shit in a flower garden, my temper suddenly flares up.
“From now on, I’m going to teach you the training that suits your style.”
Lenka, who went into serious mode, was quite sexy.
In particular, the sweat makes her long neck glisten, and the urge to suck it arouses.
“From now on, Miura…”
When Lenka is about to begin her private lessons in earnest,
“I… Friend.”
Chinami cautiously called out to Lenka.
“Yes?”
“I have a story to tell you.”
“Talk.”
“Come over here for a moment.”
Chinami, who took her Lenka to the corner of her training room, began to say something of hers with her serious face.
It’s probably about Tetsuya and my sparring.
And as for Lenka, her expression hardened as Chinami continued to speak.
Not long after, after her brief conversation with Chinami, Lenka let out a long sigh.
Then she came over to me and Tetsuya and crossed her arms.
“You guys, from now on, don’t decide to engage in sparring without a superior. What the hell are newbies doing?”
At Lenka’s scolding, which seemed to be angry, Tetsuya stuttered and lowered her head.
“Sorry.”
“Do I have to? Doesn’t it look like there’s not much to be gained?”
“I… I really want to.”
“Matsuda, what about you?”
Lenka looks at me with unreliable eyes.
I replied, biting her tongue.
“I also want to… If only Miura is good.”
“Okay…?”
Lenka’s gaze shifted from me to Tetsuya.
It seems to measure the difference in skill.
Tetsuya noticed him and looked at Lenka with a desperate expression.
“Please, manager. You saw it just now when we were doing informal sparring under the guidance of the coach. I am not what I used to be.”
“Of course, I admit that your progress is fast… But if beginners stick together…”
“The manager and Nanase-senpai will be judging.”
“Have you always been that stubborn?”
“Oh, no. I’m sorry.”
“I’m not saying anything, it’s because I was surprised. It’s nice to see that you have a competitive spirit… But wait because you need some time to think.”
“Yes, manager.”
I couldn’t have said anything more to Tetsuya’s answer, which was tightly disciplined.
Lenka, who glanced at us, went to Chinami and she started whispering something.
Tetsuya looked at Lenka like that and asked me quietly.
“Did you say we sparred?”
“I have to tell you. Could it be that we only tried to hit each other? No referee?”
“It’s not like that… But it was nice to say it when you were with me. I was taken aback for a moment…”
“I was embarrassed too.”
“Why?”
“I also thought you would have told the manager. I came to the restaurant with you today, so I thought the manager knew. Aren’t you two like that?”
“Uh-oh, that kind of relationship…?”
Tetsuya stutters in embarrassment.
I giggled so much that Lenka couldn’t hear me.
“I’m kidding, you bastard.”
“What are you kidding me about…”
“But isn’t the manager pretty?”
“Hey…!”
“It’s only between us, so what’s going on?”
“No… You’re pretty, but…”
Look at this. The true color of octopus feet is revealed because you gently coax them.
It’s a painting for you, so just look at it.
I patted him on the back and nodded as if I knew.
“Good job. Cheer up.”
“Now, do something good… And be quiet. What will you do if the manager hears…”
While we were whispering, Lenka, who had finished her conversation with Chinami, came back to us, and she pointed to the makeshift stand where the hukou were placed, still looking displeased.
“Put on your gear.”
At those words, Tetsuya’s face brightened.
He bowed his upper body and expressed his gratitude.
“Thank you, manager.”
“2 out of 3, just one game like this. No more.”
“All right!”
My heart is weaker than I look.
Tetsuya, who is about to be hit, is also paying attention.
Or do you think he can do anything against me?
So that’s a little disappointing.
**
“You’ve got what our Onggojip juniors wanted.”
Chinami’s affectionate bruise that helped her put on the hukou.
I apologized for waiting for her to tie her cotton string tight.
“Sorry.”
“No. It’s already happened, so there’s nothing you can do about it. Rather, I see it as a good opportunity. I want to give you a tip, and I hope you will listen.”
“Sure. Please speak.”
“For the first game, try to attack as soon as Lenka gives the start signal. If you succeed, it’s good, and even if you fail, junior Miura will be embarrassed, but after that, it will be easy to find a way out. Do you know?”
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
“The spirit is short and loud, and focus on the spirit of unity. That way, I can appeal to Lenka, who is also the referee.”
“Yes, Master.”
“Now, wake up.”
I followed her Chinami’s words and straightened her knee, and she patted my back.
“Fighting. As long as it’s become like this, make sure to win unconditionally. If at least one point is lost, I will conduct special training all night tonight.”
My teacher is too passionate.
So good
Let’s finish the first game in one go, as Chinami said.
From then on, if you humiliate him gently, Tetsuya, feeling the wall, will respond.
“If you fight in a place other than the grid, it will be considered a foul. Be mindful.”
Lenka’s request to me and Tetsuya, who had finished preparing.
It’s funny how you pay attention to me.
With all my heart, I want to beat the fallen guy with Wasabari.
However, this is a technique only allowed in police competitions.
It is forbidden in general matches.
So let’s not use it. It’s fair to win anyway.
So that Tetsuya can’t come up with excuses.
“All right.”
“Prepare.”
Listening to Lenka’s voice, which looked somewhat uneasy, I sat down facing Tetsuya and bowed.
Then I got up and waited for the start signal.
Part of my mind is running away from not being able to sleep.
I can’t concentrate properly, but this can be called an ordeal.
Originally, adversity comes to the main character. Think of it as a handicap.
“…..”
Tetsuya’s eyes, seen between the lake’s surface, seemed to be blazing with fire.
He’s been emitting a sense of inferiority since before, but it’s ridiculous.
I closed and opened her eyes once, gathering all my distracted concentration and waiting for Lenka to open her mouth.
“Then… Start!”
And the moment Lenka, who was between us, screamed loudly and fell backwards,
“Suck!”
He stomped her feet and extended her shinai forward.
Kwaak-!
“Ouch!”
At the same time, Tetsuya, who was about to lash out at me, let out a short scream.
Throat stabbing, one of the above vulnerabilities.
That’s what I tried first.
Seeing how its head bounced back and back, it seems to have been properly engulfed.
“… A round.”
Lenka’s declaration with her hand on her forehead.
Just like Chinami gave me advice, Lenka should have told Tetsuya to be careful of her first blow… I was devastated to see it happen.
Having scored 1 point in an instant, I crouched down on the solid line drawn on the floor and waited for Tetsuya to come to his senses.
Giggling and provoking is a sewage thing to do.
Even if he acted indifferently like this, Tetsuya’s emotions would fluctuate.
