Grabberton vs Fumitsuna (1)

Things have turned out of my hands, but it's all for the best!


I can somehow explain how I know Grabberton's swordsmanship skill, and I get to witness the match between Grabberton and Fumitsuna!!


The moment Dad announced that the match has started...


The Fumitsuna girl hurled in a very fast speed towards Domi!


Awesome... so fast!




The difference between their styles is so apparent!


In a simple term... let's see.



In a game-like world, you are a mere novice swordsman. So you are seeking for advices from the prominent swordsmen.


Grabberton: [Don't you get it? Power is everything! Crush your opponent with your strength!]


Fumitsuna: [Overwhelm your enemies with your agility and speed! Don't give them the chance to attack back!]






Yup, that's how it goes, so it's no wonder that Yuzuru quickly rushed off to deal the first blow.


But no matter. I know that the Grabberton house would train Domi vigorously that he should be able to see through Yuzuru's fast movement!



As I expected—Yuzuru's katana slash was quickly blocked by Domi's Orgueil. But the smile didn't leave her face, as she quickly lifted her wakizashi—




Domi noticed Yuzuru's strategy and quickly put more strength into Orgueil, switching from defensive mode to offensive mode. This sudden strength caused Yuzuru's hand movement to stop as she was being pushed back.


This time, her confident expression changed into a surprised expression. Sensing that Domi would land some slashes after she stuttered, she decided to leap back, did a sommersault and landed back on the ground without any injury. Her jump and sommersault caused the distance between her and Domi to return to how it was before the match started.


...She is so nimble and agile!!





"Not bad," Yuzuru gave Domi a half-smile.


"Heh, so you're quite skillful despite being so young," Domi also acknowledged his opponent.



After exchanging meaningful glances, Domi and Yuzuru both rushed to deliver their blows at the same time.


As expected, because Yuzuru's faster, she managed to land her attack first, but Domi managed to block them all.


Yuzuru's movements as she attacked Domi were so fast—and it looked as if she was dancing!! This is the Fumitsuna's fighting style! To deliver fast attacks elegantly. The combat kimono that she's wearing just added her elegance as it matched her dance-like movements.


Simply put—she looked so beautiful even when she was fighting!!


I can't put my eyes off her figure—but I know I should be paying attention to Domi, to Grabberton's style.


Despite Yuzuru's speed, Domi managed to block every attack and even launched his counter attacks.


I watched as they exchanged their stances from offensive to defensive—I can't predict who will win this battle.



Yuzuru should be 4-5 years younger than Domi, but they can fight on equal grounds! I don't know if it's because she is talented or if it's because the Oni blood running through her veins, but I know that it's not because Domi's giving her a leeway or if it's because Domi's not good.



Once again, Yuzuru created a distance between the two of them after realizing that she won't get any upper hand with this tactic.




"Now, let's see how you will fare against this!"



Yuzuru jumped and swung the two of her swords mid-air. Some black shards appeared and made their ways to where Yuzuru targeted her swings—to Domi!


This is another difference of Fumitsuna household compared to Grabberton—their style implements the use of magic! It's indispensable for the members of Fumitsuna clan to learn magic, too.


Towards the rapid attack of these countless shards—Domi... how can he make his way out of it? As if it's not enough, Yuzuru added some blows again and now, the shards are coming his way from all directions!



I glanced at Domi, but I can't believe what I saw! Domi remained calm and even closed his eyes?!



"What, saying your prayers?!" Yuzuru shouted as she landed back.


Soon, the shards reached Domi and the clash's impact and gust made me unable to see what was going on. Did Domi lose like this?



"Ah, too bad. Well, it was fun while it lasted," Yuzuru sighed and let her guard down, thinking that the match has ended and turned to face the other way, sheathing back her swords and ready to walk away.


"Oh? Who taught you to let your guards off?"


At the same time as Domi's voice resounded, Yuzuru turned her body back but it was too late—Domi has already approached her, and right when she just faced him—he swung his glowing sword towards Yuzuru!


Unable to guard on time, the blow caused Yuzuru's body to fly—before she finally managed to control her own body and stopped herself from falling mid-air. She landed back on the ground with a huge impact, she had to use one of her hands to stabilize her body.






"Kuh! How did you--?!"


Yes, how did Domi manage to defend himself from that vicious shards' attack and quickly attack Yuzuru back?



Wait... his sword was glowing—could it be...?!


"Huh?! You could use Touki?!" Yuzuru gasped in realization.


Touki—fighting spirit. Not many people could use it—even I didn't master it back then. I thought Father also had not mastered this technique back then... Domi could use it at such an age?!


He could manipulate his aura or life force to wear around his own hands—then extended it to Orgueil, which made it possible for him to defend himself against the magical attacks?!


Domi... he has really grown up... and to think that he's this talented...



Yuzuru then ran towards Domi's back and only unsheathed her katana as she dashed forward with it glowing back—wait, this stance?!


"Taste your own medicine!" Yuzuru declared as she perfectly copied Domi's attack that caused her first downfall just now—looks like it's true that women held grudges?!


...but how could Yuzuru use Domi's movement just now? Though I know she's not using Touki, but instead she cladded her katana in Dark magic.


"Trying to copy my movement? But your power won't be as good as me!" Domi sneered as he blocked Yuzuru's dark Muramasa with his glowing Orgueil.


And it's true—Yuzuru was the one who lost. She was dragged backwards as her forte was her speed, not strength.





"Alright, time to end everything," Yuzuru said as she unsheathed her Koakuma, too. Then, she brought the two swords closer—what is she going to do?


As she brought the two swords closer and infused them with her dark magic essence... the swords merged and turned into a single giant sword with ominuous dark purple glow!


"That's... The Demon Slayer?!" Domi said in awe.


Though it was huge, Yuzuru easily carried it as if it was light—the legendary Demon Slayer... the combined form of Muramasa and Koakuma... So that's how they do that?! It's cool!


"We call it Kokusatsu! It means... Victory killer!" Yuzuru announced as she swung the sword around—and a large crescent-shaped attack formed in front of the sword.


Oh no—Domi's done for, he can't easily block this overwhelming attack with his Touki unscatched—he can't even jump up, right, or left!!



"Victory is mine!" Yuzuru smiled coldly as she continued the swing—which encouraged the crescent-shaped attack to lung forward at Domi's body quickly—even my eyes can't really see its movement as it closed on Domi!


The crescent-shaped attack didn't even stop until it clashed the magical barrier erected to keep us safe—it left a few cracks to the barrier before it finally was gone.



And Domi...


As the dust was about to go away, I couldn't see anyone—wait, the name is Victory Killer, but Yuzuru couldn't have killed Domi off... right?


Did he collapse on to the ground?
