The fight between them couldn’t stop, and they kept moving from one place to another. Neither of them gained the upper hand.

If they wanted to, they could continue their fights for a week without stopping or taking a break.

On the other hand, Arisuin just sat down since he knew it was impossible to do anything. He also couldn’t see their figures since they moved so fast. In the end, he could only stay in a place, hoping he didn’t interrupt them. Still, he must admit this scene was so bizarre since even if their fight was so intense, he couldn’t hear a single noise.

While he could listen to the cry of the insects, the rustling leaves, and the wind, he couldn’t hear any noises from their fight.

‘Wh-What is this?’

However, two figures suddenly appeared at the same time.

“Director! Saikyou-sensei!”

Arisuin’s entire body was relaxed when he saw the two. He knew that they were saved and they would be alright. After all, even if Edelweiss was strong, it would be a different matter if she fought Tsukasa, Nene, and Kurono at the same time.

Kurono didn’t care about Arisuin since she could see he was alright, but she was more cornered about the fight that happened in front of her. “Arisuin, those two…?” Still, similar to Arisuin’s reaction, she didn’t expect the fight between Tsukasa and Edelweiss would be so bizarre.

“Yes.” Arisuin nodded.

“……..” Kurono was in a daze and was about to take her Device since it was impossible for her to see her student being attacked by Edelweiss, but she was stopped by Nene. “Nene?”

“Calm down, Kuu-chan.” Nene had a solemn expression on her face since she wanted to kill Edelweiss, but she knew the personality of her man well. “Let him handle this.”

Kurono hesitated, but she nodded. Then, after a while, she looked at Arisuin and made him pass out.

“……” Arisuin.

“Say, has he become a Desperado?” Kurono asked, clearly showing the tension in her emotions.

“Yeah.” Nene nodded without looking away from the battle.

“……” Kurono took a deep breath, and somehow she wanted to smoke. She looked at Tsukasa, then looked at Nene before her expression became bitter. ‘I’m a coward, after all.’

Whether it was Edelweiss or Tsukasa, they realized the existence of Kurono and Nene, yet neither paid attention. In their eyes, only each other’s figures and no one looked away. After all, a single mistake would lead to their defeat.

However, the upper hand suddenly appeared on Tsukasa.

*Swooosh!*

A gleam of light appeared, and Edelweiss jumped back tens of meters away. Yet a surprise couldn’t be hidden from her eyes since her breastplate was cut by him, causing the middle part of her breasts to be shown.

Tsukasa quickly shook his head while thinking Edelweiss was so ingenious!

‘As expected of the strongest swordsman in the world…’

Tsukasa moved his legs slightly and wondered whether it was part of this woman’s plan.

Edelweiss blushed lightly before she fixed her breastplate.

“…Thank you,” Tsukasa said after a moment of hesitation.

“…Why are you thanking me?” Edelweiss was speechless.

“Because of you, I could learn your swordsmanship.” Tsukasa suddenly showed a teasing smile, then asked, “What did you think about previously?”

Edelweiss puffed her cheeks subconsciously, showing a cute gesture that annoyed her.

Nene was about to move, but Kurono stopped her.

“…Calm down,” Kurono said calmly. Yet she still had an expression of disbelief on her face. However, when she thought about it clearly, she felt Edelweiss’s reaction was something natural. After all, she, who had previously ranked 3rd in the KOK language, decided to retire because of love.

Edelweiss was also a woman, and she wasn’t young anymore, so Kurono somehow understood why Edelweiss was interested in Tsukasa.

‘After all, if I’m single…’

“Oh? I am so calm…” Yet Nene’s voice was cold since she didn’t expect Edelweiss to try to seduce her man.

Tsukasa wasn’t sure, but he could feel the pressure coming from Nene. However, he decided to ignore it now since he had learned Edelweiss’s swordsmanship.

Frankly, this swordsmanship should be impossible to learn since it was impossible to get instant acceleration. After all, everyone had started from zero and slowly built up before reaching the maximum velocity. It was definitely impossible to gain maximum velocity instantly.

Yet Edelweiss was able to do it.

However, Tsukasa could already see the secret behind her swordsmanship.

The key to this was on the nervous signals.

Normally, the nervous signal starts from the perception and sends a signal to the brain before the body moves into action. Everything happens in one action.

Yet Edelweiss could cut down all of that troublesome process into instantaneous motion.

Tsukasa was also able to do it, but his movement was still unnatural since it was his first time doing it.

Frankly, the reason why he was able to do this was because he had died in his previous life. The work of his nerve was quite different from that of ordinary people, so it was quite easy for him to learn her swordsmanship.

If it was someone else, they had to die first to learn it.

Well, not exactly dead, but they had to face a moment of death, so their nerves could adapt and learn Edelweiss’s swordsmanship.

Even though this fight might seem short, their fight had been going from night to dawn.

“You’re amazing,” Edelweiss said in amazement when she learned Tsukasa was able to learn her swordsmanship.

“You too.” Tsukasa felt bitter.

Edelweiss only smiled, and for the first time, she felt she was glad to meet someone. After all, all the people she knew were either enemies or people who just wanted to use her. As for the people who treated her normally, she didn’t have much interest in them since they also had their own agenda.

On the other hand, Tsukasa’s intention was much purer.

Still, Edelweiss was glad to meet him since she learned many things from him.

Unlike her swordsmanship, which focussed on speed, Tsukasa was a sword of trickery. His swordsmanship made people mistake their perception, sense of distance, and time, slicing through them at intervals in misunderstood instants. This was amazing swordsmanship, and she learned it from him during the battle.

The two learned from each other during their intense confrontation.

While Edelweiss might not have said anything, there was something born in her heart that she didn’t realize.

As for what kind of feeling would be born from it, everything could only be seen in the future.

Still, Tsukasa was surprised since he didn’t expect to see someone whose talent matched him. The sun was about to rise, so he said, “How about we decide to fight now?”

“Good.” Edelweiss agreed. While she still wanted to continue, she also felt their fights had been going on for so long.

“I still have my strongest swordsmanship…” Tsukasa didn’t finish his words since he knew Edelweiss would understand.

“Use it on me,” Edelweiss said without hesitation, ignoring the consequences. Her eyes were full of brilliance when she heard that Tsukasa still had stronger swordsmanship. It could be seen in her eyes, and she said, “I want to see it! I want to see it!” Unlike her cold-like expression, she was like a child now.

“Then…” Tsukasa knew how obsessed the swordsman with swordsmanship was, so right here and now, he was going to show the strongest technique that he had developed until now. He didn’t put up a stance, unlike when he used his “Kamui.” Instead, his entire body was relaxed before he drew his sword back in the horizontal line. Yet his blade didn’t face his opponent. Instead, it followed the direction of his body, facing the side.

Yet Edelweiss could feel the tremendous pressure that came from him. Then, to answer his action, she lowered her two swords before she raised them in the shape of “X” right in front of her.

Whether it was Nene or Kurono, they stopped breathing since they knew the match was about to end.

Tsukasa and Edelweiss took a gentle breath, making their body relaxed to the point of softness before they tensed their body in unison and swung their swords!
