116 – I became so strong that I wanted to die because the sports festival was boring
“…… Yes?”
Ayako also had a surprised expression on her face.
In reality, Ayako did not attend the Lionheart family banquet. So you probably don’t know that Hyunjin became a knight.
At Amelia’s shocking remark, Otto Sedo of the Broadcasting Department grabbed the microphone and opened her mouth.
[Ah! What is this!! Player Amelia, suddenly, Jin Jin claims to be her knight! What is this Daejeon talking about!!]
Only then did Amelia come to her senses, and her face turned red in panic.
Since that feeling reached Hyunjin, she hurriedly opened her mouth to try to calm her Amelia.
“Calm down! If you shake, you lose!”
“That, that…… Ahhh, huh…… !”
Even with Hyunjin’s restraint, Amelia still couldn’t hide her embarrassment.
Anyway, it was like a bombshell statement.
“It’s a gap!”
Ayako did not miss Amelia’s shaking.
As long as there was a strong support called Hyunjin and a right winger called Sojuro, Ayako decided that she would not be able to break the battle line with the straight attack method, and dug in without delay.
“I will take it!”
Ayako is about to take Amelia’s headband as she approaches furiously.
“I won’t lose it!!”
Precisely, Amelia dodged Ayako’s attack with a slight movement and snatched her headband.
“Uh, how…… ?”
Ayako looked back at Amelia with a blank expression.
“Whoop, whoop. Whoop whoop…… !”
Amelia responded to Ayako with a requesting laugh.
“Stand, no way.”
“You got caught, Aya-chan! In the world of competition, not being able to control your emotions is a sinful thing to do! Ahahahahaha!”
With Amelia’s laughter soaked in the euphoria of victory, Otose made a decision and the mounted battle of the afternoon of the second day came to an end.
For some reason, Ayako, who was coming down from the nose, was wearing a bitter expression.
***
After the equestrian war, Hyunjin and company had a short break before entering the afternoon events.
It was her counterpart, Ayako, who approached them.
“Ah-chan, that’s amazing…… Are you controlling your emotions? Has she been completely fooled?”
Ayako held out her hand to Amelia as she spoke her words, whether in praise or ridicule.
Amelia looked Ayako in the eyes with her arms crossed, then untied her arms, clasped her hands, and opened her mouth.
“Of course, a human being must also know how to control his emotions, right?”
Ayako replied sarcastically to Amelia’s words.
“Hmm, I didn’t seem to be controlling my emotions.”
As soon as the two girls started fighting, Ryunosuke and Sojuro, who were sweating, put their hands on Hyunjin’s shoulders and suddenly raised their thumbs and said.
“That…… I can’t say anything, but do your best. Mr. Kim. Then I’ll go first.”
“Bo, the head office will also step down. Have a hard time, the reward of the woman!”
The two boys skipped their turn and left before Hyunjin could say anything.
‘Those damn bastards…… ‘
Hyunjin grumbled inwardly and quietly watched Amelia and Ayako from the side.
“You pretended to be excited on purpose? Joy.”
“If you say so, there is something suspicious. Not too long ago, the two of us didn’t go to school together. Oh, could it be that?”
Ayako smiled and said to Amelia.
‘You’re quick to notice…… ?’
Hyunjin, who was listening from the side, thought.
Apparently, Ayako is also a member of the upper class, so there is a strong possibility that she has attended the Lionheart family banquet.
You should keep that in mind.
Hyunjin nodded his head and was still watching the conversation.
“…… Aya-chan, what are you trying to say?”
“Uhm, nothing special. I’m just envious. Inuzuka is also competent, but I can’t help but envy Jin-kun.”
“There is absolutely no reason for Jin to go to you.”
“How about that?”
Amelia and Ayako exchange battles with each other once again.
Hyunjin didn’t want to see such an uncomfortable situation, so he quietly opened his mouth.
“My lady, leave it at that.”
Since there were only three of them around, Hyunjin gave Amelia her honorific title and used it.
“Tongue, Hyunjin?”
“And Aya-chan, let’s do that too.”
“Yeah, seeing things like this makes me a little jealous.”
Ayako said with a small smile at Hyunjin’s words.
“Are you laughing, Aya-chan?”
“It was purely because I was jealous of you, Ah-chan. Then, see you in the next event.”
Ayako bowed shyly and she stepped away.
“Hyunjin.”
After Ayako went back, Amelia asked Hyunjin.
“Tell me.”
“You, my article is correct.”
Amelia asked Hyunjin in a trembling voice.
I don’t know what to say, but it’s better to say it in a familiar way here.
Hyunjin thought so and opened her mouth.
“I have always been your butler, and will be your knight.”
I don’t know how long it will be kept.
At least for this moment, it would be better to give her the answer she wants.
Hyunjin thought so and opened her mouth.
“Thank you for saying that…… Thank you.”
Amelia looked relieved and said to Hyunjin.
***
After a brief break, the afternoon events on the second day of the sports festival began.
In addition to equestrian warfare, additional events were simple events such as tug-of-war and gourd bursting.
‘The 2-man trilogy with relay was the third day.’
The first thing prepared in the afternoon was gourd bursting.
I am confident with this.
Thinking so, Hyunjin made eye contact with Kanade, who was next to her, and Kanade nodded her head with a solemn expression.
“Mmm!”
Kanade puts on a confident expression as if she’s confident.
‘Well, it’s the same here.’
As long as I have the high-tech gloves Kanade gave me, I’m invincible.
An ordinary bean bag is a bomb in my hand?!
Hyunjin slowly put on her gloves and said to Kanade.
“If you throw it right away, it will explode, so let’s take a step back for a moment and see an opportunity before throwing it.”
“Yes.”
Kanade nodded at Hyunjin’s words.
With the sound of the whistle, Otose of the Broadcasting Department said that he would start blowing the gourd, and at the same time the students raised their voices and started throwing beanbags at the gourd.
A gourd hanging on a pole about 5 meters high cannot be reached properly with moderate throwing power.
As Kanade and I were idly contemplating the situation, a student in the same class next to us opened his mouth.
“What are you doing? Don’t throw it sooner!”
“I was waiting for the right time.”
“When?”
“Okay, it’s our turn.”
Hyunjin was making such a proud expression that he said such a wonderful line, while the student next to him with a tired expression picked up a beanbag and threw it at Park.
You only get one chance.
A great performance always follows the aesthetics of waiting.
That was Hyunjin’s idea.
Park, who was still hanging on the 5-meter pole, didn’t think to open it, and the situation started to heat up.
“Now, Kana-chan!”
“Oh!”
Tuk, tok.
The beanbags in Kanade and Hyunjin’s hands lightly floated up and down for a moment, then they were squeezed again.
As Hyunjin took her stance as if throwing a ball, Kanade did the same and threw at the gourd on the 5-meter pole at the same time.
Boom!
As if you can hear the sound of an artillery shell exploding, the first thing that exploded was the 1-A class gourd.
Thanks to the gloves Hyunjin and Kanade were wearing, control was so strong that I didn’t have to worry about it.
“High five.”
As Kanade stretched out her hand to Hyunjin with a dazed expression, Hyunjin also lightly touched Kanade’s hand and said,
“Good work, Kana-chan.”
“Ehehehe.”
After that, starting with Class 1-B, Class C and Class D burst into gourds in turn.
As for the total score of the Sports Festival, the A class is overwhelming. Compared to other classes, it was a number that could not even be thought of narrowing the difference in scores even if several events were given.
As long as you don’t give away first place in all events such as two-man triathlon, relay running, and tug-of-war.
‘Now, is the tug-of-war next?’
Hyunjin waited for the short break to end once again and warmed up lightly.
‘Still, I don’t think it’ll be fun if I keep wearing gloves.’
Hyunjin took off his gloves and changed into ordinary work gloves before participating in a tug-of-war event.
The first class I encountered was the C class.
Hyunjin confirmed that he felt a sense of elation deep in his heart as he continued to win first place.
I wonder if this was the point of view of Ryunosuke, the main character. He could feel people’s spotlights pouring down on him with his whole body.
I feel sorry for the opponent who will lose unilaterally, but that is only a fleeting feeling.
The pleasure of winning was something no one could deny.
[From now on, we will start the tug of war, the last event in the afternoon of the second day of the Hoshizora Sports Festival! Players, please take your seats!]
The layout of the tug of war is simple.
It was an event consisting of 5 women in the back and 5 men in the front.
The female group in the back was in the order of Kanade, Aisha, Amelia, Ohana, and Chihiro, and the male group was in the order of Hyunjin, Sojuro, and Ryunosuke in the front.
The other two are ordinary extras.
[Start!]
At the same time as the whistle sounded, Hyunjin lightly relaxed. To be precise, she only pretended to pull.
It’s time to get tired of winning too overwhelmingly.
That’s why I gave it enough strength to keep it from being pushed in moderation for a little directing.
If Hyunjin gave up her power just once, she could deal with about 10 people by herself, but she didn’t.
Because the fun is gone.
Zero, zero.
After such repetitive slogans came and went several times, Otose from the broadcasting department said that the tug-of-war was going on tighter than expected.
It wasn’t long after those words came out, and Hyunjin got tired of it.
Because it was too strong, it became a body that couldn’t feel pleasure.
The main character of One Kick Man must have felt like this…… While muttering the same words in my heart, I gave strength at once, and the other side fell over at once and was dragged toward Class A.
[Su, the winner is 1-A class! Sorry, C class! I could have won with just a little more!]
With Otose’s words, the afternoon events of the second day came to an end.
Hyunjin muttered to himself while watching the students in the other class with a bored expression.
It’s just that I’m envious of being able to enjoy things normally.
