Chapter 2.3

I decided to give up on holding my breath and move around without creating too much noise. Switching my moving pattern every time.

Front, back, left, right— Zig-zag, like a snake, like a frog— as long as she`s not able to guess what's coming next.

But, every time I move away from my last spot— her spear lands just right on that very last spot right after a second. There's no time for me to rest.

The tension made me inhale.

The moment I breathe in, there's a faint yet sweet, fragrant smell like the smell of shampoo enters into my nose. That's the exact time a thought came into my mind.

‘Why did I hold my breath right from the start? I hate myself.’

From that faint smell, I predict she's around there…

I quickly took a dash towards my 3oclock direction, swinging my blade diagonally downwards to the left.<

    “………………”After about ten seconds, all the daggers and swords that stabbed me scattered like ashes then disappeared.I opened my eyes.Since my body is still throbbing in pain, I carefully sat on the cracked ground and looked upwards— searching for the moon.It`s half-moon today.No, the moon isn't important. I`m merely doing a countdown.When I realized, a gorgeous, beautiful girl with a mysterious aura around her sat lifelessly on the ground and was staring at me with a face— full of shock and surprises. She seems a little puzzled and dumbfounded too.It seems she saw what happened to me.Well… anyone who saw my condition for the first time would've made the exact same expression like hers.Right then, why am I outside?

    Unexpected events.In a meaning, it could be said as something unforeseen. Like you didn't expect you would trip all of the sudden, even if you walk normally. It is also an event that takes you by surprise, more like you weren't prepared for it. If there`s an idiom, then ‘out of the blue’, ‘catch someone off guard’, ‘out of nowhere’, ‘just like that’ and ‘all of the sudden’ would be the few suitable meanings to this.Or it is an event that can be expected, but improbable at the time or a fully unprecedented event— it could turn out to be an entirely new situation.I believe unexpected events tend to happen at least once in life. For me, the term ‘unexpected events’ is something that I had been through countless times, so many times that I lost count of the numbers. No matter how big or small they are, some of them are ironically, actually the t

    “…I will take you on seriously.” She uttered.“WHOA!?”THUNK!!!She appeared in front of me all of the sudden. I don`t know how she`s able to move that fast, but reluctantly— I managed to parry her spear thrust upwards with my scabbard.She was pushed back unbalanced.It's my chance...!“One Handed—”“…pierce.” She whispered.Three spears almost grazing the blazer at the sides of her waist, thrusts straight to me.“—the same thing won't work twice on me!”I was expecting this. I rammed two spears at the left into the ground with the scabbard, and deflected one at the right to the side with the blade.By the time I wanted to press my attacks on her, Kuroyuki already

    With an outburst on my right foot— I sprinted forward, closing our distance at least 40m in less than a second.However, I know this speed is still not enough. She`s faster. There`s more than enough time for Kuroyuki to summon her spears and attack— like now.“…Pierce.”Although she summoned thirty spears, she shot three first.Before the first spear hit, I took a side step to move away from its trajectory. After taking another two steps, I parried the second spear to the left with the sheath on my left and deflected the third spear upwards with the sword.I continued to run forth.Huh, it's getting easier than I thought. I suppose I`m getting used to this. Now then, perhaps I should prepare to block the rest of her spears…As I was expecting her to shoot her spears, Kuroyuki gently tapped her right f

    “…You look quite disheartened.” Kuroyuki suddenly murmured.It seems she merely wants to kill time. I was bored too, so having a little chat with her wouldn't hurt.“I think anyone except a psychopath and a battle freak would`ve become disheartened if they were forced to fight the strongest student out of the blue. And besides, I haven't slept since 3am.”“…I know you can deal with it somehow.”The way she says is almost as if she knew me well enough to make such a claim.“Aren't you trusting me a little too much?”“…I never said I trusted you.”The way her tone gives… it`s as if she trusts and distrust me at the same time.“Then… is it something similar to Persia`s ability to read people?”&
