Chapter 57.1. I’m Going To Play Cute Games

[Takano Arashi appears!]

[Takano Chuya appears!]

As soon as the little piglet pointed his magic at me, I got a log that the battle was about to start. It seems that the battle gets started between the parent and child set.

So, before her mom can stop her, Miu steps out and heads to fight Arashi. If you get hit, you do hit it back. I’m going to show you how Miu jokes around. It’s a cute little jangle, so he’ll admire it.

I don’t know Arashi’s purpose, but it’s about what a thug would think. It’s probably nothing. It’s a good bet.

Because he put my parents in danger. I’m sure he’s an idiot. It’s okay to play with horse-san and deer-san, but you can’t stand in front of me.

But if I show my parents too much of my true self, they’ll think I’m weird, so I’ll take it a little easy, as I close in on Arashi. And I check his level.

[Takano Arashi Level 37]

Arashi’s level is surprisingly low for an heir to a count’s family. The villainous high-ranking nobles I beat up were usually above level 40 in the game. However, this phenomenon shows a characteristic unique to reality. That is, they were not wearing magic armor. If he had it on, his level would probably increase.

That’s because the way the game examines levels is applied to real-life characteristics. The [Examine] command is used to examine the level and strength of the enemy from the player’s point of view. Strength = level, so the enemy’s level changes depending on the equipment. I notice this because Yamiyo’s level is usually much lower.

However, this thug is at this level in his element, even though he’s not wearing magical armor. It means he’s quite strong. Being the heir apparent of the count’s family is no mean feat. But I won’t lose. I’ll show you the power of a game-spec-enhanced human.

“Tei!”

I speed up my steps, accelerate, and close the gap. Arashi’s eyes peel back at my unexpected speed, but I guess he’s good at fighting because he immediately sets up his hands to face me.

Leaning forward, I accelerate and jump in. Arashi unleashed a fist wrapped in the wind.

“You brat! Realize the difference in your combat experience!”

[Storm Knuckle]

Arashi comes with a fist with a tornado of magical blades on his arm. From the smooth occurrence of his fist, it seems he had been practicing seriously. With just a snatch, the tornado, which has the power of a physical blade, will easily tear me to shreds.

I wonder if he doesn’t know the word “take it easy”. I guess he doesn’t know because he seems to be possessed by Horse-san and Deer-san. Or he saw that I’m relying on recovery magic. Even if he wounded me, he probably thinks I can heal his wounds with recovery magic. He’s a scum.

The approaching storm fist blows my hair away and tries to hit me with its terrifying spiral storm wind. The movement of the fist is familiar, the fist of one who knows the basics of martial arts.

But it won’t reach me.

[Thief Step II]

I turn my stepping foot into a complex step, tapping and swaying my body rhythmically, quickening his speed.

“What!”

Miu moves in small and intricate steps, swaying at high speed, leaving afterimages that overlap, making it impossible to tell where her real body is, Arashi’s eyes peel in astonishment.

Arashi’s still not intimidated, and it comes out with a series of fists in rapid succession. Arashi backed up, and several fists are coming at Miu’s body, trying to tear it apart, but she calmly observes the approaching fists.

I sway my body and slide to the side, avoiding Arashi’s fists with a comfortable margin. The wind flutters my gray hair.

I look sideways at Arashi’s fist as it passes my body. I close the gap even more. The skill [Thief Step II] increases my speed by 40%.

In the game, this is a skill that I didn’t use very often, because the increased evasion rate is negligible, even if I increase my speed. The game’s tempo is that skills and magic that increase speed are often not very effective. Even if I increase my speed in the game, it’s difficult to avoid enemy attacks.

But in real life, the effects of skills change drastically. If you’re fast, you’ll have an advantage all the way through.

I know this thug excels in combat with a ratio of 3 physical skills and 7 magic. It’s because instead of hitting me with his fists, he’s trying to damage me with the windstorm he wears on his fists.

He’s used to it, but my granted combat knowledge tells me his fighting style is that of a magician. Then there will be no problem. It’s my turn.

“Let’s play!”

Finally, having closed the distance to the point where even Miu’s short limbs can hit him, I crouch down to the ground and kick Arashi’s leg.

[Foot Sweep].

I use martial art [Foot Sweep]. The magic power gathered in Miu’s leg and became a fast spinning kick like the wind, kicking through the right leg that had been the storm’s core.

“Ggh!”

Arashi, who is no longer supported, falls on his buttocks as hard as he can and groans in pain. His movements get slowed down. As if pain immobilized his body.

The [Foot Swipe] does not damage the enemy, but it has a medium probability of putting the enemy in a “Stun” state, stopping their movement for one turn. Okay, so this is how it works in real life.

“Pursuit!”

With a thud, I step down hard, jumps high into the air, align my toes, and point them at the fallen Arashi.

“You brat!”

[Storm Wall]

The fallen Arashi immediately turns his hand to me and uses his magic. Arashi’s eyes dimmed, creating a localized storm wall as he was inside a box. As the name “Arashi” suggests, he’s good at storm-storm system magic.

If I go in at this point, I’ll get wounded. I hope it heals, but… Today, it’s the day.

“Muuu.”

When I turned around and changed my direction, I gave up on the pursuit and descended to the ground. If my treasured clothes gey torn to pieces, I would burst into tears. Miu is a lovely girl. Her spirit gets dragged by her body, and she cries.

“Ha. After all, you’re just a pseudo-magician who can’t fight! You’re no match for my magic!”

Arashi, perhaps mistaking her reluctance for fear, smirked with pride, stood up, and crossed her arms.

“Wind, gather round!”

He begins to gather mana into his arms, uttering a crude chant. I can see it, too, the mana gathering. Pale, glowing green particles gather on his arm, and the wind flows through it.

“Am I supposed to see it during battle?”

I see what you mean. It’s true, it’s a problem when mana isn’t visible in battle. From a game standpoint, and a visual standpoint.
