Chapter 304 - Discussion
The next day. Theo still sat on the bed, waiting to be discharged.
However, the entire group decided to hold a meeting there, including Radvils, to prevent the previous incident from happening.
Still, Theo couldn't help but remember what happened yesterday. After giving that hint, Nella refused to say anything and simply left the room.
'It seems I have underestimated the Griffith Family. They seem to be adept in Control and their influence is quite big. The experts are many and the family head is strong. I wonder what's wrong with this family. Either way, I can feel that there's something that's gonna bother me in the future. I need to know more about them from Nella later.' Theo shook the thought off for now.
"Theo, what are you thinking?" Ellen whispered while watching the match.
Theo glanced at her for a moment before changing the topic. "It seems our next opponent is Japan."
"Yeah." Ellen nodded. "Nakajima Miyoko has the blessing of Susanoo-no-Mikoto."
Theo narrowed his eyes and said, "He's dangerous. Looking at that sword covered with lightning, I'm afraid it's hard to fight him."
"Indeed." Radvils agreed and pointed to another one. "But you also need to take a look at the other one, Kurihara Masahiko, the holder of Benzaiten's blessing."
"Who is this beautiful man…" Theo shook his head helplessly.
"…" Alea and Ellen rolled their eyes.
"His appearance aside, his power is considerably strong. His movement may look feminine and beautiful, but each strike contains a high amount of power." Radvils shrugged.
"Ehm… I think I know a bit about her… I mean, his strength." Alea raised her head as if noticing something off from him.
"What is it?"
"His movement seems to be a Sword Dance." Alea explained, "A Sword Dance is a bit different from a Sword Art. Each movement will be continuous and each dance will have its own meaning. In other words, you will be fighting an unpredictable and endless onslaught. Take a look at his opponent, he has difficulty stopping him unless someone disrupts him. However, from what I can see, he has yet to master many types."
Theo looked down, falling into deep thought.
"Last but not least, their captain, Shibuya Mami. She has Kitsune's Blessing. I don't know whether her blessing is a God Rank or a Mythical Rank. If it's the former, I'm afraid the Kitsune has become a Tenko or you may say a Celestial Fox," said Radvils with a serious expression.
"Nonetheless, she is the opponent we need to beat. Let's assume the worst." Theo looked at them. "Does anyone want to say something?"
"The others don't have blessings, but they are strong too."
"I know that already." Theo sighed. "Alright. Since no one wants to talk, I can only say, I can't give you any plans this time. First of all, I need to check their condition first, so I, Alea, and Ellen will be going in the first game.
"From what I have seen, the opponents also rely on strategies, so we will have no trick in the game section. The remaining three battles will be personally overseen by me and I won't forget to take a note, so if I end up in the hospital again, you guys can know my plan. Is that alright?"
"…" All of them lowered their heads, feeling ashamed.
Radvils nodded in agreement, finding no problem in Theo's plan. As long as there was a note, they could do something about it. "But are you sure it's okay to fight them with an empty head?"
"Of course. They will be confused why we're using our strength in the game section, so everyone is required to make them think we're going to overpower them, especially after me gaining strength from my battle against Nella. Though, I will still stick to my own fighting style." Theo smiled. "Also, I'm planning to end this match as soon as possible, so all of you will take the field with the intention to win. Don't hold back anymore… Understood?"
All of them couldn't help but feel excited as they replied. "Yes."
…
Meanwhile, the opposite party also had a strategy meeting to discuss how they should handle Theo's team.
Nakajima Miyoko looked at his teammates behind the round table and asked Mami. "How are we going to deal with them? Theodore has shown an unprecedented level of strength along with his brain. This is not going to be an easy task."
The rest also looked at her, wondering if she had some sort of trick to fight them.
"From what I have seen so far, they are trying to gain at least one win in the game section and another one in the one versus one match." She thought for a moment. "That's why we are going to abandon the third match since Theodore or Alea will come up in that stage. After that, we will send our strongest fighters to fight them. I'm sure Theodore will play something weird in this match.
"He will close the match using that trick, so if Theodore goes for the third battle, Alea and either Laust or Phyrill will go. This is the strategy he has never used, so it will catch us off guard. That's why we will counter it with me there.
"After losing his momentum, we will close the match in the fifth round." Mami smiled.
"As expected of you." Miyoko nodded. "He has never used the same strategy twice, so I guess he's planning to do something like that. No matter how dirty it is, a win is a win. Also, with the hype of the audience, if they can destroy us in the fourth match, it will give enough hype for them not to think about the dirty trick."
"Indeed. Let's see who will emerge victorious." Mami felt confident.
"Has the request been approved yet?"
"Theodore aside, I'm more interested in Laust's unique swordsmanship. His uniqueness may give him the potential for an Original Technique. That's why I am adding him together with Theodore in the request. Both of them have gotten their approval. If Theodore rejects us, we will simply get Laust."
"I trust your judgment." Miyoko nodded and rose from his seat. "In any case, we will fight to the best of our ability."
