Part Two
After a while, I sensed someone approaching me and woke up from my nap.
âTenma, your match is coming up. Itâs time to get ready!â
It turned out to be a staff member, whoâd knocked on my door.
âThanks.â
âIâll be back in ten minutes to escort you to the arena. Please be ready by that time.â
I didnât have much in the way of preparations as my weapon and equipment were already good to go, so I just stretched to warm up.
As I said before, my third opponent was the third-place winner from last year. Iâd looked into his matches, and though I had some doubts, this wasnât the time to dwell on them.
He was a thirty-five-year-old tiger demi-human named Blanca. In the first and second rounds, contrary to appearance, heâd overwhelmed his opponents with technique instead of pure force.
He seemed to specialize in fighting with a spear. In the first and second rounds, heâd replaced the tip of his spear with a wooden one. So far, he had won all of his matches without using his true power.
For a moment, I thought about using a spear to fight him, but since it wasnât the weapon I was best at using, I decided not to.
I swung the kogarasumaru a few times, and before long, the staff member came to escort me to the arena. Normally, they wouldâve just notified you that it was time for your match, but after the incident with Oggo, theyâd decided to directly escort all participants to the ring.
Blanca stepped into the arena at about the same time I did, on the opposite side. As soon as he saw me, his expression suddenly turned ferocious. For a moment I wondered if he was angry, but he didnât seem mad. I realized that he was actually enjoying the moment and that his expression was probably one of excitement.
As soon as he stepped into the ring, he paused. He had a little smile on his face as he removed the cloth that was wrapped around the tip of his spear. The tip was some kind of white metal. It was hard to see from this distance, but I thought it might be made of orichalcum.
The fact that heâd decided to use a real spear tip meant that he recognized me as a formidable opponent. In other words, he was going to fight at full strength for the first time in this tournament.
Both Blanca and I made our way to the center of the ring, where the referee looked us over. Then, he was just about to raise his right hand when Blanca interrupted him.
âYouâre Tenma, right?â he asked. âYou sure you wanna fight me with that piddly little weapon? Iâll end up skewering you before you even get near me.â
He was looking at my weapon as he said that, but it didnât seem like he was trying to make a fool out of me. It was more like he was looking forward to seeing how Iâd respond.
âI could ask you the same thing.
