The match that was approaching the end of the preliminary round was resumed by presenting the match between Masayu and Sasae. The slick battle of the two beautiful girls was stunning amid the sunlight that began to clasp in welcome afternoon, the clash of swords, exchanging attacks continued to be seen on the field of the Tiger Circle Arena. Now Masayu and Sasae are able to sedate the audience with a gurgling swordplay and full of art.
The blue haired girl was able to compensate for Masayu's swordplay which had a unique movement pattern. Masayu's movements were difficult to guess but Sasae was able to fend off every attack launched by his opponent and vice versa.
The most interesting part of the fight between the two girls growing up down there is their sometimes visible, thin smile, the sweat that soaked their faces many times made the male audience only be able to gulp.
Sasae manipulates his body's aura into water which constantly makes Masayu difficult, considering Masayu manipulates his body's aura into a rain. The water spots near Masayu made Sasae increase his alertness.
Sasae shook his sword as he retreated backwards to keep his distance from Masayu. A dense blue water shot out rapidly towards Masayu. It was also done by Masayu who swung his sword doing the same thing as Sasae.
The densely blue slash of water met with the white-colored slash of Masayu's sword, the two slashes met.
The explosion made Sasae stagger to try to stay upright, while Masayu processed his breathing before moving back to make an attack.
"Rain Breathing."
Masayu again moved and launched his second attack from afar, a swallow formed from the aura of his body and fused with his sword slash.
"Aura Protective Water Wall."
Sasae's index finger looks like it's giving Masayu a sign. A blue colored water formed a protective wall around Sasae.
The slash that Masayu had slashed continuously dashed swiftly towards Sasae. Everyone fell silent and chuckled in amazement as the swallow that was mixed with Masayu's sword slash exploded into a grain of water that formed a needle.
"Sorry, I want to be on stage with Nagato and Litha. I feel annoyed that they both look like they don't recognize me!" Masayu smiled faintly when he saw the look on Sasae's shocked face.
"Why can this water droplet penetrate my water protector?!" Sasae saw clearly when the water droplets that formed the needle fused with his water-protective wall and pierced through it then shot swiftly at him.
Sasae quickly moved to the side but the swing of the sword from Masayu made Sasae's relaxed face turn like one who was startled to see something.
"He is beside me! His movements were extremely fast and he had a unique sword technique and boundless movement!" Sasae twisted his body to withstand the attacks from his front and back. Then he again swung his sword at Masayu.
The needle-shaped details of water were successfully deflected, now Sasae held back Masayu's slash until she bounced back. Masayu himself was quite surprised by Sasae's movements that were very agile like a dancer holding a sword.
"He seemed to have almost the same technique as the Mountain Crying School. Mother once told me about the science of the Waterfall of Truth which is very similar to ours." Masayu nodded while adjusting his breath first before moving back quickly swinging his sword at Sasae.
"The Mother Water of the Waterfall of Truth once said about the hidden place that was part of our ancestors. And that's your place, Masayu." Sasae smiled faintly as Masayu swung her sword quickly giving a crushing attack at him.
"I also heard about it, you could say you are a fragment of us. When the ancestors had differences of opinion." Masayu twisted his body and swung his sword while his feet were getting ready to kick Sasae.
"Yes, every human being must have a difference of opinion." Sasae held back Masayu's sword slash but did not hold back Masayu's kick. His body bounced back.
Masayu smiled and drew his sword beside Sasae's neck that had just fallen to the ground, many people were silent to see Masayu's attack.
"Great, you can keep me from twitching one bit." Sasae tried to smile as she glanced at the sharp sword right beside her smooth white neck.
"Sasae you're great too, your swordplay is so hard to guess. I myself did not predict when you were twisting and fending off an attack coming from both directions," Masayu praised the opponent. The blue-haired girl with unraveled hair and a face filled with sweat smiled gently hearing him.
"I should have said that to you. As Grandma Sachie said we should be friends even though we were both trying to beat each other. Thank you Masayu for your praise, I'm glad to hear it." Sasae closed her eyes and looked at Sachie who was looking at them.
"I'm giving up!" Only that word came out of Sasae's mouth before the girl received Masayu's helping hand with her hand.
"You young shoots should think calmly in every circumstance, because emotions will sometimes break the strings of brotherhood whereas if you are able to withstand emotions and uphold the meaning of a friendship then the Kai Empire that we live in will be filled with young people who have a string of brotherhood tightly. And all of that will make the Kai Empire head in a better direction." Sachie looked into Masayu and Sasae's eyes looking at him.
"Thank you, Sachie..." Masayu and Sasae thanked Sachie then smiled gently at the middle-aged female referee.
"I'll remember Grandma Sachie's advice. Sooner or later the Kai Empire will return as it was, to its rightful hands and its throne belongs only to the fated dawn." Masayu looked at Sachie and said, "That's what my mother always told me. I just want to see for myself the truth, if it's all true then I can..." Masayu looked at the smiles of Sachie and Sasae and then he said, "Then I can realize my dream to assume the Truth about the world written on the inscription."
After a few minutes they were still talking, not how long Masayu and Sasae returned to the audience. Writing like the return fire is seen that announced Masayu as the winner, an interval of twenty-two seconds later the above writing was changed by writing the name of the participants who will compete next.
One of the spectators muttered slowly, "Beautiful..." The other audience members said, "Misuzawa Hanabi of the Misuzawa Clan is fighting Akira from the Eternal Fire School..."
***
As the sun drew closer to its journey to lay on its throne, the Tiger Kai Tournament still continued as it left the last four participants.
Along with the fight between Masayu and Sasae in an inn called the Eastern Sun Inn, the figure of Shirayuki first scolded the handsome young man who could not control his emotions.
Hika who is lying on the bed is being given first aid by Oichi after that Emi, Tika and Ichiba treat the wounds experienced by Hika.
Outside Hika's room Iris and Litha heard Shirayuki scolding Nagato. The beautiful girl who looked cold to everyone except the Fuyumi Family was shocked to hear her mother scolding Nagato.
"Litha will the Dragon be okay?" Iris glanced at Litha who was standing worried about Hika's state.
"Eh? I don't know either" Litha replied in confusion.
"I also felt very angry when my best friend was treated like that, it's just that I didn't expect Nagato to react any faster than everyone." Iris leaned her body against the wall.
Litha's hand touched her own chin and her eyes closed, remembering Nagato who was always easily angered when he saw his friend hurt, Litha recalls clearly when Nagato killed dozens of humans for being accused and nearly injured by a man named Amaga.
"Iris she was like that, but I could never calm Nagato's emotions unless I was about to cry or plead so soon she could control her emotions," litha said as she glanced at Iris and said, "But you can cool Nagato's hot head, and you can make Nagato calm with just words. Iris honestly I envy you so much, I love Nagato so much but he thinks of me as his closest sister or best friend. So don't be jealous if Nagato is close to me, however deep inside Nagato's heart there's only your name there. Please take care of Nagato for me when I'm not by his side." Iris widened her eyes hearing Litha say that.
In Shirayuki's room, Nagato was sitting with his eyes looking at the floor of the inn.
"I can't blame you I'm just saying thank you. But Nagato you shouldn't care about your feelings! What are you going to do when you kill the person who hurt Hika?!" Shirayuki scolded Nagato. The young man just kept quiet and gulped because he had not expected Shirayuki to become like this.
"Your weakness is huge, you can't control your emotions, Nagato!" Shirayuki covered her chin all the way to her nose with a fan while her eyes stared intently at Nagato.
"I don't know why it's like this, but if I don't act like that, I'll lose someone again! I'm most afraid of his name to lose, we'll be alone if our closest people are gone..." Nagato yelled softly but eventually his voice became sad as he hated a breakup that ended in loss and that would cause him to fall into solitude.
Shirayuki stood up and walked over to Nagato, her hand touching the young man's shoulder.
"As the mother of a child you like, Aunt Shirayuki has a little advice for you..." Nagato looked at Shirayuki in tears.
"Nagato learn to hold back your emotions, don't let emotions escape, because sometimes emotions make you lose things. Once you realize everything but it's too late and you just feel sorry." Shirayuki hugged Nagato.
"Abibi ... Shirayuki's..." Nagato felt guilty seeing tears dripping from Shirayuki.
Nagato wiped Shirayuki's tears with his finger, whether it had become his growing male instinct or from childhood Nagato did not like to see a woman crying. His actions this time saved someone's life but his emotions caused Nagato to almost lose a lot of things. He forgot his goal of taking on the Tiger Tournament of Kai.
"Sorry Aunt Shirayuki. I understand why Aunt Shirayuki said this." Nagato took off Shirayuki's hand which was holding her.
"My goal was to win the Kai Tiger Tournament but I almost lost that chance, thank God Aunt Shirayuki rebuked me. Thank you very much, Aunt Shirayuki. I'm grateful to have one" Shirayuki stopped crying and her wiggly fingers touched Nagato's lips, then her lips cracked, "A future-in-law. Remember that."
Nagato blushed his face because he always saw a side of Shirayuki that was very different from most people's expectations. His head only nodded so that this conversation would quickly be finished.
"Aunt Shirayuki I'm leaving first. I'll take Tika, Litha and Iris back to watch the remaining matches." Nagato left Shirayuki in the room.
"I scold people's children? So it's like scolding people's children .. Rather than scolding me is like flirting with Nagato. Well, even though it's handsome but that shy expression is amazing." Shirayuki smiled for quite a while before gathering with the other Emi.
A few minutes later, Emi told Nagato, Litha and Tika to return to the Tiger Circle Arena to see the remaining contestants. Emi wanted the three representatives of the Fuyumi Clan to observe a participant who would likely be their opponent in the round of 32.
