Chapter 8: Reinhard VS Elsa

PoV (Flame)

As he swept like the wind through the entrance to the house, he felt as if he had been freed from despair.

Behind me, I could still feel the coldness of the air and the sound of metal hitting the ice. There was also the sound of sharp objects splitting the air, and the sound of other steel colliding.

The battle is still raging behind me.

As my legs began to tremble as I ran, I shook my head, trying to deny the confusion I was thinking at the time.

It was clear that if I stayed there, I would be killed.

Against an opponent who surpassed my heavenly protection speed, it was clear that I had no chance. The same was true for the silver-haired half elves. Without your spirit's help. He couldn't beat the woman either.

That idiot is even worse. It was clear that he had little experience of wrestling, and he did not seem to be used to it at all. Her clean hands and fingers were a sign that she had never tried to pick up a gun before, and her clean hair and skin were proof that she had never been seriously injured before.

In other words, the idiot lives a sheltered life where there is no need to think about struggle. Given that he had such a face, everything made sense.

-so why?-

My insecurities are gone with those words.

Why did this idiot save me? I don't know the answer, but I admit that seeing her save me made me fall even more in love with her.

Seeing that at that moment I somehow gained strength and managed to save myself, it made my heart beat very fast.

Aaagh, why did he have to look so good when he saved me?.

- Not..-.-.

I immediately shook my head, the idiot confessed to me for help and I couldn't let him down.

There's no way I'd let that*****take my idiot!

- Anyone! Whoever it is!

Strange, I rubbed my watery eyes. Even if I have reason to be sad about Roma. This idiot is someone I just met, why can I just think about it?

Immediately after a series of thoughts, it occurred to me that the idiot accepted me for who I was. The idiot risked his life just to save me by breaking his limits. And the same idiot who gave me the most sincere and affectionate look I've ever seen.

Then, finally, I ran on some roads...

- Please help me. -

- Understood. I'll help you.-

... I found a young man who looked like a red flame, who agreed to help me.

Wait, my idiot, once you're saved, I'll make you tell me your name, without interruption.

The thought of seeing her again just painted a smile of relief on my face.

Pov(Subaru)

- Reinhard. - Sorry, Subaru. I think it's been a long time since we last met. I'm sorry I'm late

Reinhard turned to look at me, I was lying on the floor exhausted, with a sympathetic smile.

Even as Reinhard cleared the dust from his sleeves, every movement seemed trained and deliberate. Reinhard's feelings about him were different from when I first met him in an alley with the Tonchinkan trio. When I looked at it now, I realized that I was now looking at the real Reinhard.

Not for a moment to lower his guard, Reinhard looked ahead and turned his gaze to Elsa, who was now focusing his hostility on her. Reinhard's blue eyes narrowed as if he remembered something.

- Black hair and black clothes, and your weapon is a special curved sword from the northern country. You're a duck-billed innards hunter, right?-

Reinhard stared at him for a moment before turning his eyes back to me.

“Subaru, it looks like you were right to say that he will be here, thank you for helping me avoid tragedy.”

I just smiled and gave a thumbs up.

"Don't worry, Reinhard, that's what friends are for."

Reinhardt just nodded and looked at Elsa.

Reinhard. Oh yea. A gentleman among the real men.and from the family of "master swordsman". Well, that's amazing. I never thought that I would meet such a fun opponent. I have to thank my employer for giving me this job, right?

there are many things I want to ask you.

I suggest you give up though ..-

"You tell a hungry predator, stop in front of its wounded, broken and already bleeding prey with its own blood, to endure the hunger and move on?"

Elsa licked her red lips erotically with a joyous expression in her suitcase as she inspected Reinhard.

"Understanding," Reinhard replied as he scratched his cheek as if hoping for another way.

“I saw consciously... This woman looks like a monster, but knowing you, I assumed that you were hunting them, right?”

- Fortunately, you are right.

"Right of a monster is my specialty" Reinhard said confidently and stepped forward without any sign of combat readiness.

Knowing that Reinhard could not draw his sword. He swung his sword at the ground near Reinhard's feet.

Taking a sharp breath, the kukri in Elsa's hand flew forward in an instant, towards Reinhard's neck.

"I really don't want to be cruel to a woman, but ..."

- Reinhard said, starting in a polite way, but I think his tone declined.

"... You have to apologize."

Reinhard planted one leg, pinned it to the ground below, and with the other leg, he struck so hard that a shockwave burst from his punch, when he collided with Elsa, he sent his body flying. The black vampire was strong enough that I could see where he was. Seeing such strength, I could only fall silent.

- Amazing.

Seeing it in anime is one thing, but seeing it in person is another.

- As they say ... - more precisely, you are even bigger and stronger than others say, - Elsa said.

well, I just wish I could live up to your expectations

you're not using your sword? I want to try his legendary sword -

Elsa is aiming for Reinhard's sword. He wanted to fight Reinhard at full strength, but he held back. However, Reinhard shook his head.

- This sword is made so that it can be drawn only if needed. The fact that the sword was not removed from its sheath meant that now was not the right time

- I must have been underestimated.-

personally, I'd rather accept your offer. That's why..-

Reinhard suddenly felt something in his leg and lowered his hand. His eyes stared at the sword that slid on the ground. Reinhard placed his foot on the hilt, sending the sword into the air. I squeezed it lightly in my hand and she swung it a little to try it.

Knowing what would happen next, I immediately prayed in honor of my trusted colleague.

"...I used this to face you." Any complaints?

- No... It's amazing, it's amazing! You better make me have fun!-

When Elsa grabbed her sword, she took the first step, throwing herself to the side. At that moment, he used a skating jump to increase his speed. In response, Reinhard stopped his posture to swing his sword from below, straight up.

At this moment of attack and defence, I can have a clear idea of what is going on.

Reinhard's attack was incredible, miraculous, he was well-trained. In his hands, even an ordinary sword like this glittered like a precious sword that passed down legends between generations. Reinhard's sword technique captured every ounce of appearance that could be taken from the sword and used it at will.

Reinhard's sword hit the target, right where Elsa's kukri touched the handle. Even though it was two pieces of steel at the same time, Reinhard's sword showed incredible cutting power and cut Elsa's sword blade from the base.

It seemed like Elsa had no words about the fate of the kukri she held in her hands. The sword only had a hilt, and the rest...

"Now that you lose your weapon, I suggest you give up."

... When Reinhard turned around, Elsa's kukri knife was in his other hand. With a quick flick of his wrist, he threw it away and immersed himself into the wall in a sharp voice.

I even heard Elsa sigh.

After a few seconds, the surprise disappeared. Elsa's pretending to be stupid, too bad I know your game.

- Reinhard! He has another sword!-

Elsa's second kukri was removed from her waist and cut off some Reinhard bangs as she leaned back.

- I'm surprised you can.-

After hearing these words, I decided to play a bit like the real Subaru.

“Yeah, I've already experienced it!” I said playfully while throwing the package towards Elsa.

Looking at my attitude, Reinhard instead patted his face, while Elsa apparently realized that my words were just a joke.

“However, you are wrong to think I only have two fangs.. Can we start from scratch?” he said to Reinhard.

"Are you going to be happy if I destroy all your weapons?"

- If I lose my fangs, I will fight with my nails. If I lose my nails, I will fight with my bones. If I lose my bones, I will fight my life. That's how I am, a hunter.

"In that case, I must force you to give up all your ideals."
