Part 2 The fighters made their entrance into the circular arena. The cheering became even more thunderous. The audience seats are surrounding the arena which are located in the lower place. The arena is an empty smooth field of land.
But, after I heard the explanation, it seems they’ll put an object if it’s necessary. It’s not like they have only simple battles, they also do battles of certain conditions. 「Oh, he’s the one from a while ago.」 Jackrosa Tetra made his appearance. He’s carrying a round s.h.i.+eld and long spear, I keep hearing the audience calling his name when he’s entering the arena. His opponent is a man of magician style who wore a robe. They take positions which are considerable distance from each other and, the battle began with the sound of a gong as the signal. The match was an one-sided battle. Though the magician attacked from a distance by using magic skills such as magic arrow, magic bullet, moreover ice-based, all of those only struck Jackrosa’s s.h.i.+eld. And then he advanced bit-by-bit, the magician who couldn’t escape to the side kept retreating behind and was then cornered to the wall. Finally, when the magician lost the place to retreat, he entered Jackrosa’s spear’s range. But Jackrosa isn’t fl.u.s.tered. He kept cutting off the opponent’s place of retreat while guarding against his magic and steadily attacked with his reliable spear. The chain combo of swinging his spear after guarding from an attack and following it by fixing his stance with s.h.i.+eld again was accurate, smooth and, fast; it was as if it’s part of one series of movement. The matter of him having polished his basic skills and abilities is something that can be seen at a single glance. And then, after receiving several blows, the gong made incessant sounds, and the magician falls on his knees and the battle closes down its curtain. 「That person is really powerful right!」 「Ah. It seems that he’s not just simply popular. His attack are fast and heavy. Just one of his attacks will greatly shave away your endurance value.」 The endurance value said by Risa Haruna is a certain lithograph which is displayed above the head. It’s similar to his own status which can be seen by us, the status which can displayed by means of a gauge and the percentage is displayed on the indicator built on the walls of the arena. Endurance value―― That is the value which decides victory or defeat in this arena. The people who fight in this place are equipped with magic tools which function like a barrier, this endurance value will keep decreasing when one receives attacks. It seems one will be declared loser when their endurance value reaches zero. And yet, it seems there’s no one who’s gravely injured. With guarantee for safety and peace of mind in this way, the children can also come to see the fight. And yet, even while I’m thinking that there are such convenient magic tools, the battle advanced to the next card. 「OOOOOOOOOOOOH!」 「HARUEL-CHAN!」 It suddenly turned into loud cheers. What kind of a person is that just coming out? When I look toward the arena―― The back of a girl who’s walking toward the arena comes out from our side’s gate. I can see a relatively small build and light brown-colored hair with bob cut. She turned toward our place while walking toward the arena. When she waved her hand with a smile from ear to ear on her charming face, the uproar intensified even more. Some part of the audience are even standing up from their seats. She’s really popular huh, or rather she has good look and is also giving a good service. I can understand her popularity. 「But, I can’t place parasite just by looking. The most important thing is skill.」 That’s also amazing. Haruel is a warrior who fought with sword in both of her hands[dual wield]. Though her opponent is also a warrior who is fighting using sword, while warding the attacks with her sword, she keeps on evading her opponent’s attack with paper-thin margin and continues attacking her opponent as if she’s dancing in the arena. That flowing movements are as if she’s dancing rather than fighting, it is as if she’s manipulating her opponent to dance with her. And then, the completely uninjured Haruel won her fight. Haruel won and then she left the arena after showing a dance with her sword right after the fight. The cheers become even more amazing when she did that. The coliseum fights are highly popular in Prowkai, strong fighters are dime a dozen. After watching several matches, we, who were satisfied, left our seats. 「It’s good, right? As I thought, the ambience is different when looking it LIVE. I can feel the heat, you know」 「G.o.ddess is truly a hot blooded one, huh. But, it certainly is impressive. The best of all, the number of spectators is terrifying.」 「Ah. That’s quite the splendid number. How is it, you want to try it too?」 Though Risa Haruna’s looking into my eyes, I know what she means. 「No, I’m just an ordinary person, something like that is impossible for me.」 「That isn’t the case. Though I just saw it in the lobby a while ago, they’re talking about about how they’re always recruiting a fighter unconditionally. It seems anyone can become one when they pa.s.s the apt.i.tude test.」 「You’re quite sharp, aren’t you. Even so, it doesn’t mean that I want to become a fighter」 「I see. That’s regrettable. But, it seems I’m gonna try it for a while since it seems interesting.」 Risa Haruna’s heading toward the place where the staff are walking on the lobby. She’s quite a battle junkie huh… No, please wait. I suddenly noticed it. The fighters who were fighting a while ago were in that place, we just met a fighter a while ago but there might be no better convenience than this. But, if we’re on the similar standing as a registered fighter, there might be a chance to meet them again, right? Even if I had only met them today, they’re definitely worthy of being a big shot, they maybe ahead of me atleast in one field, and there maybe someone who’s even higher than that. While it might be true that we’re registering as a fighter, it doesn’t mean that we’re going to fight right away, rather it was more like a probing situation for the time being. Yosh. 「Let us go too.」 「EH? Me too? 」 「Um」 Ruu too, I might be able to use her for information gathering. We talk to the staff in the lobby following Risa Haruna.
