The Hero King, Reincarnate to Master the Art of War ~And Thus, I Became The Strongest Knight Disciple (♀) in The World~-Novel

Inglis and Yua faced each other with a bit of distance between them.

「Don’t go overboard, you two! The school building is being reconstructed, so please don’t destroy it again!」

「Yes, Principal. Ufufufu…」

Inglis responded to Principal Miliera with a graceful snicker.

It was time for the long-awaited contest with Yua. Inglis couldn’t restrain her smile and the surge of excitement in her chest.

Now that she had evaded the kissing scene problem, all that was left was to have a lot of meals and a lot of fights. A lot of fun waiting ahead!

「Come on, Senior Yua! Let us show Count Weissmall our capabilities! So that he can entrust such big roles to us!」

「Yups. Let’s, Boobie girl.」

「…………」

If possible, she wanted Yua to drop that nickname. Inglis was finally getting excited, but now it was doused with a bucket of cold water.

Come to think of it, Yua had always been like this towards anyone, but would she be able to memorize the lines and the arrangements for the stage play? Now Inglis grew anxious about this whole plan.

Well, even if she had trouble remembering things, Yua would surely show a battle sequence so amazing it would drown even those hitches. Her prowess was authentic. Even from Inglis’ point of view, there were still parts of Yua that she couldn’t hold the bottom of.

Yua was indeed captured by the juvenile Prisma just the other day, but it wasn’t because Yua lost in terms of strength. Her opponent had the special characteristics that enabled it to catch her, and she fell straight to it. It was a bad match-up for her, is all.

For Inglis, Yua was by no means at all an easier opponent than the juvenile Prisma.

「Er, no, umm……Ing——Inggu……?」

「Yes. It’s Inglis, senior. Have you memorized it?」

「Yeah. I need at least remember the name of the person who saved my life……is what I thought.」

「Ooh——Thank you very much.」

Surprisingly, Yua was quite considerate of such things. It made Inglis a bit happy.

「Then, Ing……Ing——bie girl.」

「……! No, hold on, please! You’re mixing them up, senior!」

「Nn……?　Nnm~ Then, Bo-, Bo……Boobglis? Yeah, this one.」

「S-, stop it, it’s embarrassing! Just call me like before!」

It was embarrassing to be called Boobie girl, but even more so if she mixed it up with her actual name. Inglis’ cheeks flushed red.

「Ahahaha!! That’s a good one~ Break a leg, Boobglis!」

「Rani! Stop it!」

「Oh noo, Glis is angry ????」

「Y-, you should stop, Rafinha! Inglis doesn’t seem to like it so much.」

「You’re part of her faction aren’t you, Leone… Ah, it’s Boobne isn’t it?」

「I-, I said stop! I’m not a part of it, aren’t I!」

Leone was just as red-faced as she objected.

「A-, anyway, Senior Yua… put the names aside, let us start.」

「Mkay. Got it.」

Yua only gave that as a response, standing still without any changes to her form. It was typical of her, not bothering to take a stance just because she was in a battle.

She moved around blindingly fast despite her just trotting around with light steps. She showed astounding, herculean strength and crushed her opponent with just a pat-like punch.

There was a dissonance between what she showed and what actually happened.

Even confronting her like this didn’t give Inglis any kind of impression.

When facing Hyrule Menaces like Eris, Ripple, and Cystia, Inglis could feel a specific kind of intimidation that they gave off, but… Yua was clearly an oddity. To Inglis’ senses, it felt as though the one she was facing was just an everyday girl.

「……Can I go first?」

Yua asked, tilting her head slightly.

「Yes! Please do!」

Inglis braced herself, waiting for Yua to make a move. She kept up the hypergravity she applied on herself, like she always did. The more she kept this up, the better her training would be. There was no reason to remove it.

Life passes by and ends in a blink of an eye. Inglis who had lived her full lifespan knew it all too well. Not even a single second could be wasted. You have to keep improving yourself. By doing so, you would be able to go even farther, even higher than before.

「Then——」

Like a whisper carried by the wind, that voice disappeared…

「Pow!」

And was then heard again loud and clear, right next to Inglis’ ear. In an instant, Yua had slipped into Inglis’ side.

「……?!」

Inglis’ eyes couldn’t catch her, her ears couldn’t hear her footsteps, her skin couldn’t even feel the movement of air when she approached. Nothing. She couldn’t perceive her at all. There was nothing, and Yua had already stuck so close to Inglis.

A gentle, caressing-like palm strike, was aimed at Inglis’ flank…

「Hyaah!!」

Before that palm could reach, Inglis slipped in her arm to take a defensive posture against it. And, as Yua’s palm touched Inglis’ skin…

A tremendous impact was transmitted to Inglis with just that!

「Kgh……!」

Inglis’ body, overwhelmed by the impact, was blown far and wide. Even while soaring through the air, Inglis’ eyes were sparkling bright.

「Ooh!! Amazing!」

Whilst such thoughts were crossing her mind, Inglis’ body was flung and plunged into the frames of the school building that was being rebuilt.

「KYAAAAAAHHHH————THE SCHOOL BUILLDIIINNNGGGGG!!!!」

Principal Miliera’s shriek echoed.
