CH 9.8

「Oraaa!」

Yui dodged Amanda’s red-hot fist with a side step.

Good.

Yui could have just avoided it with a slight movement but given that she doesn’t know the opponent’s capabilities, she’s right in avoiding it with a distance.

She’s following the things I taught her very well.

-0-

The glove, which generates flames like a booster, accelerated her fist.

The heat emitted by the glove distorts the surrounding scenery.

Amanda’s fist aims at Yui’s face with a back punch.

Yui quickly steps back and avoids it as well.

「Your speed is not bad!」

Amanda then launches a follow up attack on Yui.

Amanda’s right hand seems to be the only one that is equipped with a divine object and her left hand is a normal fist.

Even so, the power of her ordinary attack can knock out a normal human in one blow.

Yui evades all of them though.

「Is she…..really an amateur!? However, anything can happen in battles!」

Amanda kicked up the sand beneath her feet.

The sand’s target is Yui’s face.

Blinders!

Amanda smirked and launched her fist at Yui’s abdomen just before the sand reached Yui’s face.

The sand on the ground rolled up and Yui’s nowhere to be seen.

It’s a high-speed move. The sand was like that because Yui stepped on the ground hard.

In an instant, Yui’s already on Amanda’s side and delivered a spinning kick toward her flank.

—bam!

With a loud sound, Amanda’s body, which had been bent to a “く” shape, was blown several meters off the ground.

「Ara, you have a good eye to guard that blow properly.」

Amanda was able to see Yui’s movements.

It was just barely but she was able to put an arm guard in time.

「I see……you’re not just a little girl.」

Amanda staggered to her feet and held out her right fist.

「This one…..eat her!」

A blade of flame extended from Amanda’s glove toward Yui.

This technique was aptly named after the flame sword.

Yui leapt up and mounted the flame blade.

Then, she ran onto the blade and drove her knee into Amanda’s face.

「Enough!」

By the time the instructor stopped the battle, Amanda had already fallen to the ground with white eyes.

「Hey, is that……gungnir?」

「I think so. To think someone would actually use it.」

「I know right. It shortens the lifespan of the user more compared to any other divine object.」

The soldiers were in an uproar.

That’s what would have happened if someone had used gungnir before I adjusted it.

Apparently, that divine object was infamous.

「I never thought she’s the gungnir owner. How about that boy?」

Axel came forward while deliberately shaking his head.

「Let’s try to find out.」
