“W-we didn’t mean to scare you!” Yua calmed her partner down again. “W-with your abilities, I believe you can win over him, Elise!”
Renee nodded her head. “That’s right, Elise! Coupled with lord Raymund’s strategy, you will definitely be able to defeat that savage guy!!!”
Mona replied with a bark as if she wanted to calm her master too.
Elise took a deep breath and looked back at the arena. The words from her friends did not make her calmer.
The female warrior gulped. “But, perhaps the one more in danger is you, Yua. You have to pay close attention to this match.”
Surprised by Elise’s words, Renee and Yua exchanged glances. They didn’t expect the female warrior to make such a comment.
“You have to do what Elise says, Yua.” Raymund used a serious tone. “Olga is no ordinary woman. I did give you a strategy, but that’s no guarantee of your victory.”
“I see.” Yua rubbed hr chin. “So, this is going to be interesting, huh? I already knew that woman was special when I couldn’t attack her mentally.”.
“And instead, she invaded your mind first.” Renee chimed in.
“Ladies and gentlemen, we have finally arrived at the last match of the day today!!!” The host made another announcement, followed by a music to welcome the upcoming fighter. “He’s a man who is already famous in this town! He managed to defeat the basilisk and paraded its head through the streets! Here it is, Leonov Dmitrievich!!!”
The intensity of the cheers Leonov got was equivalent to the first match between Renee and Yua.
“Hmmm… If it’s true that he defeated the basilisk, then he’s great.” Renee commented. “That legendary snake is famous for being very hard to beat.”
“But that time, he lost to a bunch of restaurant workers,” Yua responded as the bald man walked into the arena waving his hand.
“That’s because he and his friends don’t want to make a big fuss in this town.” Igor went up to where the three women were, directly speaking to them. “They’ve done that before, and it’s been tense for days. It’s very troublesome.”
“If he really wanted to be like that, he shouldn’t have been so arrogant and smashed the table first.” Renee snorted.
“And then, she is…. Well, she is willing to come from far away to this tournament….” The host sounded very confused about introducing the next fighter. “Let’s welcome, Olga!!!”
The cheers from the crowd had lessened. Some of them were whistling, just like when Trish arrived in the second match. Olga’s appearance is indeed attractive, even without the skimpy clothes.
“Embrace me, mommy!!!” One of the spectators near Elise and company’s location exclaimed.
“I want you ladies to see the greatness of Leonov,” Igor smirked. “His attitude is a bit problematic, but I’m sure you’ll be stunned when you see his abilities.”
Renee raised an eyebrow. She felt Leonov glance at her with a grin, something that shouldn’t have been possible. The two of them are so far apart.
“I’ve heard of what happened at the restaurant.” Igor continued his speech. “Well, the feuds of you two would make for an interesting spectacle, Renee. Too bad.”
“It seems that you are sure that Leonov will win, Mr. Igor?” Renee asked sarcastically.
Igor shrugged. “Well, we’ll see…. Huh? Leonov’s opponent didn’t bring any weapon? What a bold act.”
The match signal was given by Anna Kozlov, who acted as the referee this time. Olga stepped forward while Leonov raised his spear.
Suddenly Olga’s acceleration increased drastically, making her body seem like a blur. In a split second, she was already past Leonov.
The two fighters had their backs to each other. Then, Leonov knelt down and released his weapon before finally collapsing.
The atmosphere was quiet for a moment. Everyone in the arena opened their mouths in disbelief, including Renee, Yua, and Igor. The third child of the Kozlov family even stood up in shock.
Only Elise frowned. She was indeed surprised by what had happened. But she had already expected something like this to happen. The female warrior reminisced about that time when the waffle seller stuck a ‘knife’ to her neck.
“Eh?” Anna Kozlov froze and only started the count when Olga looked at her. “O-one!!! Two!!!”
Unlike Yua’s match, none of the spectators imitated the count. They were busy talking about what really happened.
“Th-this is impossible.” Igor sat back down with his body starting to tremble. Even so, his face was decorated with a smile. “I-I can’t see what’s going on.”
“Looks like she’s not a real waffle seller, Elise,” Renee muttered. “It must be just to cover up her activities.”
Elise shook her head. “She is a real waffle seller, but her past gave her such abilities…. And I don’t think it’s my place to tell you about it.”
“We just invited a monster here.” Igor held his forehead while laughing. “Honestly, I didn’t expect much from her, but someone suggested her to me…. The only information that person had about Olga was that she once defeated a thug mob…. However, somehow that person managed to convince me to include Olga.”
“Ten!!!” Anna Kozlov’s last count was followed by the sound of the bell.
After her hand was lifted by the referee, Olga left the arena just like that.
“Ah….” The host is also still in shock. “The winner is Olga!!!” He then cleared his throat. “Thank you for coming, ladies and gentlemen. I hope you will come back later tonight to watch the semi-finals. Elise Fairchild was against Oleg Ivanov in the first match, then Yua Nakagami against Olga in the second.”
The audience started to leave the arena, still discussing what had just happened in front of their eyes.
Igor left with a grin, not saying goodbye to the three women. Elise and Renee had already got up, but Yua remained where she was, looking at the arena.
“Yua?” Elise patted the kunoichi’s shoulder.
“Eh?” Yua looked at her partner in confusion.
“The others are gone.”
The kunoichi rubbed her face. Like Elise, Yua’s face also looks tense. “Okay.”
“Remember the strategy I gave you, Yua.” Raymund tried to calm his servant, but Yua didn’t respond.
They descended the stairs that led to the stadium hallway. Just walking a few feet in that place, they passed Olga, who had just come out of one of the waiting rooms.
Olga just flashed a faint smile when she saw Yua, waved to Elise and Renee, then walked away.
