Chapter 1401. School Festival Day 2 / I remember

Unlike the beauty witch league, which allows anyone…

The high-school division has Kudou Haruka vs. Line Haruko-san in the first match, a fight between 17 and 18-year-old girls, a refreshing fight as both girls have serious personalities.

『 Aaargh, this mat bounces too much!! 』

In the last martial arts tournament, they fought in different weight divisions.

In fact, Kudou Haruka’s a little bigger than Haruko-san, but, Kudou Haruka practices karate, she’s not accustomed to the wrestling wring so she’s confused with both offense and defense.

『 Kuh 』

On the other hand, Line Haruko-san’s also at the mercy of the special rules of school swimsuits and judo uniforms.

Every time she goes for a high kick, she can’t help but her cute ass wrapped in a school swimsuit peeking out of the hem of her judo uniform.

『 Hey! Haruko! Your belt! Look after your belt more! You lose if she takes it! 』

Rodulfo-san shouts on the ringside!

『 I know! 』

Haruko-san fastens her belt.

Unlike Rodulfo-san she doesn’t have any experience in belt-tightening martial arts.

Since both sides are confused with the unfamiliar rules, the result was a nearly equal fight.

『 Haiiiiiii!! 』

Kudou Haruka attacks Haruko-san while she’s refastening her belt, but…

Her foothold isn’t going so well.

『 Eiyaa!! 』

Her attack got avoided easily, and her foot got scooped up.

『 Now! Haruko! Pin her! 』

『 Okay!! 』

Line Haruko-san gets on top of Kudou Haruka who fell on the mat.

『 Karate’s her base so she’s bad when pinned 』

Rodulfo-san gave her advice, but…

『 Unfortunately for you, karate may be bad against pinning, but I still have my Kudou arts!! 』

Kudou Haruka reverses the pin.

『 Naive!! 』

But, when it comes to pinning, Line Haruko-san has more training.

Kudou Haruka just learned Kudou arts techniques recently so there’s no helping it.

『 Oh? You should be careful, if your shoulders touch the mat, you both lose! 』

Edie shouts at the two fighting on the ring.

『 Aaah! There’s that rule too! 』

Kudou Haruka replies with a shocked face.

『 Haruko, don’t go for her shoulders but her belt! 』

『 Kuh! You make it sound easy! 』

She’s constantly worrying about her belt and her shoulders, that it’s quite troublesome to fight.

『 Chiii, no good 』

『 Let’s take a break 』

In the end, both of them let go and stood up.

They reset.

『 Damn. Eiyaa!! 』

『 Hmph! Haa!! 』

Kudou Haruka and Line Haruko had a close fight, but…

Gong!!!

Three minutes is over, and the gong rings.

『 Okay, time out! Both fighters lost!!! 』

Nei’s bright tone ended the match.

『 Ugh, if we had thirty more seconds I would’ve won 』

『 I’ll definitely win next time 』

The two of them got off the ring while staring at each other.

『 Okay, look forward to the rematch! 』

Nei told the two.

『 Well be back after a short break! 』

Saito-san smiles at the camera.

◇ ◇ ◇

「 It’s about time we resume work now 」

Katsuko-nee stood up.

「 Yeah, we should 」

I also did the same

We’ll have to prepare some more pastry for the customers who will come to the cafe after Edie’s tournament is over.

From how it looks, the tournament will finish without problems, and Nei as a host seems to be doing well

Margo-san’s nearby, Tsukiko, Mitama, and Edie are also there.

「 Then, let’s start baking 」

「 Yes, please. Ai-chan and Mana-chan can take a bit more break 」

We still have a lot of ready-to-bake dough so Ai and Mana can rest for now. Haiji, Yomi, Eri, and Rie too.

Kinuka’s watching the match on the monitor eagerly.

「 Well then 」

I checked the oven temperature and put the pastry inside.

We continued working, the commercial ended, and the program continues.

I continue working while listening to the show.

『 Awawawa, weak, weak, too weak. Maria-chan!! 』

I hear Nei’s voice, she’s having fun.

『 To think that Maria’s belt got undone just three seconds after the match started, and she lost! 』

The assistant host, Saito Yuki-san says.

Huh? Kendou Maria lost as soon as the program resumed.

『 Nufufu, you’ve gone flat Maria 』

Seems like the second match of the high school division, Edie vs Kendou Maria ended up with Edie’s win.

I mean, Edie and Kendou Maria, formerly Tendou Otome’s skills are too different, to begin with.

It’s not even a contest.

『 Hey, wait! Edie, what about now? The first match ended with both of them losing, and the second match was an instant win. Now we got too much airtime! 』

Nei complains.

Right, what will they do with the remaining time?

『 If that’s the case, Edie-chan, fight me! 』

Poron-san suddenly said.

『 Rodulfo-san still has a few more moments to show off, so I can’t go back to the dojo like this 』

『 Yes, that’s unfair, Poron!! I don’t want to go home losing too! Edie-chan, I want you to fight me, Monkey Mimi-san again! 』

That was Monkey Mimi-san

『 Eeh? I’m against the weak entering the ring again 』

Rodulfo Seko-san says.

『 Edie-chan, let’s fight! Hey! 』

Somehow, they just want another match to be on TV.

『 I’m up for a fight too 』

Grace Marinka-san too.

Well, she’s someone who wants to fight anytime, anywhere.

『 Edie, what do you think? 』

Nei also asks Edie, who’s the organizer of the event this time.

Edie;

『 Hmm. Today was actually a high-school girls’ competition at our school festival 』

Now that she mentioned it.

Rodulfo-san and the girls just wedged in with their beauty witch league.

『 So, I think that the last fight should be between the students in our school, right? 』

That…

Edie’s the only one who does martial arts in our school.

However.

『 Mitama, get up here 』

Edie calls Mitama.

I looked at the monitor in surprise.

『 Ooooh, an irregular has participated! Everyone, here’s a familiar face you see on TV. Anjou Mitama has appeared on stage 』

Nei says.

『 Nadeshiko department’s third-year student, Anjou Mitama, has come to the summons 』

Mitama’s wearing the bright white male school uniform, and holding her Japanese sword with one hand, slowly making her way up to the ring.

『 Uoooooooooooooohhh!! 』

Most of the people in the ring are students of our school.

Of course, they know that Mitama and Edie are students of our school.

They’re cheering so loudly now.

「 Onee-sama, that’s unfair 」

Kinuka looks up at the monitor and muttered.

The two sisters are always together, so she’s not satisfied that only her elder sister is in the match.

「 Can’t help it, it’s only among high-school girls, and Kinuka-chan’s still in middle school 」

Mana pats Kinuka’s head to comfort her.

No, wait.

Is that okay? Mitama isn’t even a martial artist.

『 Err, are you sure, Edie? 』

Nei’s also confused.

『 There shouldn’t be a problem, Mitama’s not a martial artist for the show, but she’s a fighter 』

Edie smiled.

『 However, if I’m fighting Mitama, I’ll need someone to be a referee. I don’t think the sound of the gong will stop us when we get into it 』

Mitama’s not a martial artist, so she might not be able to stop if she gets too excited.

We need someone to stop Mitama from running amok.

『 Aah, if that’s the case 』

Nei points her mic at herself.

『 Everyone. The next match will be a special exhibition match, so we’ll have a referee only for this match 』

She tells the viewers.

『 And, the referee will be her. Everyone give her a round of applause 』

Nei, who do you want to be the referee?

『 It’s Fujimiya Reika-san! 』

R-Rei-chan?

『 Huh? Me? 』

Rei-chan pops her face out of the waiting room.

So that’s where she is.

Oh, Tsukiko and Igarashi Izumi’s in there.

But, Rei-chan usually looks dignified, but now she just has a surprised face.

That gap is so cute.

『 Eeeeh? Really? Are you sure about Fujimiya Reika-san?! 』

Saito Yuki-san didn’t hear about this.

She’s got the mic on her, but her voice is so loud out of surprise.

『 But, the only time I’ve been a referee was when I was in middle school, during a kendo practice 』

『 Don’t mind it, we’re having a school swimsuit judo tournament. No need for qualifications! 』

Nei’s smile is off.

『 You just have to make sure that Mitama-chan doesn’t heat up too much! 』

Rei-chan.

『 I understand. If that’s the case, I’ll accept it 』

Rei-chan leaves the tent.

『 Oooooh!! 』

Another loud cheer.

Rei-chan’s dressed in civilian clothes, still male clothing.

She holds her cane in one hand and goes up to the ring.

『 Kyaaaa!!! 』

『 So cool!! 』

Rei-chan’s popular with the high-school girls.

『 Aaaaah, uhm, I-I’m also a fan, can I shake your hand? 』

Saito Yuki-san’s an idol, yet, she wants a handshake from Rei-chan.

『 Sure, you must be having it hard being the assistant. Do your best to the end, okay? 』

『 Aaaaaah! Thank you!!! 』

While Saito-san’s getting ecstatic, Edie speaks to Mitama.

『 Mitama, we’re having a school swimsuit judo today 』

『 Acknowledged, I’ll leave my sword 』

『 Got it, Mitama-chan 』

Mitama leaves the sword to Nei, and she took off her pants.

『 Uooooooooooooooohhh!! 』

The boys are all looking at Mitama’s legs.

『 Hmm, seems like you’re ready for it 』

Mitama’s wearing a school swimsuit below her uniform.

Oh, Edie planned for Mitama to go up the ring from the start.

That’s why Edie told Mitama in advance and she put on a swimsuit while she was in the waiting room.

However.

『 Hmmm, Mitama-chan’s got great style as always 』

Nei’s right. Mitama’s got long legs, a thin waist, and huge breasts.

She’s the cover girl on Yukino’s show, flaunting her micro bikini every week.

『 Hey, hey, Edie-chan. Are you sure you want to fight her? 』

『 She’s not the sports type, right? More of a fighter 』

『 I don’t think it’s a good idea to put her on the ring 』

Mimi-san, Rodulfo-san, and Poron-san who knows Mitama only through TV try to protest to Edie, but…

『 No problem, she’s strong 』

Grace Marinka knows what Mitama’s capable of due to the morning training at the mansion.

『 So, what kind of martial arts do you use? 』

Mimi-san asks Mitama, and she takes off Kendou Maria’s belt and jacket.

『 Anjou arts 』

She puts on a dignified look and stared at Edie.

『 I’m ready 』

『 Then, let’s go for it 』

『 Let’s have a fun fight between high-school students okay? 』

Rei-chan, the referee, smiles at the two who will be facing each other.

『 There we have it, thank you for waiting for everyone. Our next match will be between two students from our school, let’s begin! 』

Nei faces the camera.

『 Ready go!! 』

Gong!!

Nei gave the cue, and the gong rings.

『 Here I go!!! 』

Mitama goes up to the corner post and jumps up high.

『 Take this! Anjou arts! Muscle Avenger! 』

Then, she plunges to Edie, going for a head-butt?!!

『 Hey, hey! That’s not even muscle avenger! But Mariposa’s muscle revenger!! 』

Nei shouts, but…

『 That was a fake. Anjou arts muscle spark heaven!! 』

Mitama then goes after Edie’s body, trying to set up some kind of obscure locking technique.

『 That won’t work 』

Edie counters and slaps Mitama’s stomach.

Mitama fell on the mat and stood up right away.

『 Kuh, if so, I’ll go with Anjou arts, Muscle inferno! 』

Then, she rushed at Edie again.

『 Nono, Mitama-chan, that’s not possible! That’s a technique that only Yudetoki or Momohaku can replicate! 』

Nei retorts.

『 I’ll go here this time 』

Edie dashed to the ring ropes and used the recoil to kick Mitama.

『 Air battle is my domain! 』

Mitama tumbles through the air.

Yeah, that was a decent match.

I mean.

Both of them are surprisingly light so it’s too early to be surprised.

They continued their fast attacks without taking a break.

『 How is it that their belts don’t get loose even though they move so much? 』

Rodulfo-san asks, but…

『 In Anjou arts, it’s a disgrace for the warrior to get their belt undone in the middle of a fight, so I won’t make such a blunder 』

Mitama says while fighting.

On the other hand, Edie’s also showing off her fancy skills with ropes.

『 Swan-dive kicks. Edie-chan, you can wrestle Mexican style? 』

Mimi-san’s surprised by Edie’s skills.

『 I just watched it last night on Youtube 』

Edie shows off a technique she’s seen once.

『 Take this! Anjou arts, Rolling Crash! 』

『 You’re not there yet! 』

『 Lightning Anjou Kick!! 』

『 There you go! 』

『 Anjou Propeller Chop! 』

『 Okay, sure, sure 』

『 Super Anjou Moon Surface Two-step Kick! 』

『 Hoi hoi hoi! 』

Still.

Mitama’s Anjou arts is fun to watch because it’s filled with dynamic techniques.

The sisters do some street performances, but, Anjou arts is a ruthless entertainment style of martial arts that always remembers to entertain its audience.

As expected, Edie’s also staging the match so it would be received by the audience well.

『 Here I go, Mitama 』

『 Come! Edie!! 』

Oh, it should be fine. Mitama won’t rampage.

Edie and Mitama had created a bond of trust before I knew it.

They’re family so they’re training together all the time.

The two know each other’s skills well and trust each other deeply.

『 Tri Kicks of the flying dragon!! Torya! Torya! Toryaaa!! 』

『 Soi!! 』

Their fight is as light as a skilled dance, yet somewhat comical as well.

Despite that, it’s clear that the fists and kicks the two deliver had enough sharpness and weight to knock down their opponent in a single blow.

『 Okay, we’re about to reach time! Ten seconds. 8. 7. 6. 』

Nei started counting down.

『 5, 4, 3, 2, 1…The match is over!! 』

『 Stop!! 』

Edie and Mitama are still going at it.

So, Rei-chan puts her cane in the middle of the two.

Buooon

You can hear the heavy sound of the heavy cane cutting through the air.

The audience around the ring gasps at the powerful strike that could shatter a human head with ease.

But.

『 Phew, that’s far enough 』

『 Indeed, that’s far enough 』

Mitama and Edie stopped their match as Rei-chan’s cane is in between them.

Even after three minutes of intense fighting with no breaks, the two aren’t sweating.

『 Err, uhm, since it’s also a time out, does that mean that both sides lost due to our rules? 』

Saito-san asks Nei timidly.

『 Huh? But this is just an extra exhibition match so there’s no need to decide who wins or loses, right? 』

Nei said with a smile.

『 Everyone, give the two high school girl fighters a round of applause 』

Rei-chan speaks to the spectators out of the ring.

『 Oooh!! That was amazing Edie!!! 』

『 Mitama-san’s so beautiful! 』

『 Both of you did great! I’m amazed! 』

The audience cheered.

『 It’s all just you girls. You seem to be having fun 』

『 You just took everything, that’s unfair 』

『 That’s right, stingy! 』

Mimi-san, Rodulfo-san, and Poron-san said from the ringside.

『 Come up here, we’re going for one last rage 』

Edie said with a smile.

『 I knew you’d say that! 』

『 Let’s go! Haruko! 』

『 Poron’s coming too 』

『 Let’s go 』

The four in the beauty witch league enter the ring.

『 Haihaihaihai!! 』

Edie tosses them one by one to the mat while laughing.

『 Maria, we’re going too, come 』

『 Okay 』

Kudou Haruka, Kendou Maria, and Line Haruko-san jumped to the ring too.

They’re all laughing, tossing each other to the mat as if puppies playing with each other.

◇ ◇ ◇

『 Okay, you need to stop now girls! We’re running out of time!!! Gong! Please ring the gong!! 』

Nei asked the gong rings multiple times to stop them from playing around on the ring.

『 School swimsuit judo isn’t even a thing but this was fun 』

Rodulfo-san said with a satisfied smile.

『 It’s not an official tournament so the results don’t matter honestly. 』

『 I just wanted to show off a bit more 』

『 Then show off on a real match 』

Mimi-san, Poron-san, and Grace-san.

『 Err, yes, we didn’t have this in our script but do we have any closing program? 』

Saito-san asks for instructions from below?

『 Huh? What? I don’t know either 』

It’s not just Saito-san, Nei doesn’t know the plans either.

I asked her as a surprise at the last minute.

『 Err, uhm, the last part of the show, right? Are we going to sing the school anthem of the school that allowed us to use their place today? 』

Saito-san looks at the relay message and said.

『 I’m singing? Huh? Not me? I won’t sing? 』

Oh right, the manager wanted Saito-san to sing.

Sorry, that didn’t work out today.

『 Let’s bring the choir club here! 』

It wasn’t Nei, but Mitama.

She shouts from above the ring, still wearing the school swimsuit and judo uniform on top.

『 Okay 』

Choir club girls we met earlier gather in front of the ring.

And since they’re students of our school, they’re wearing our school uniform.

『 Natou-san, you too 』

Osaki-san, the president of the club called Nei.

『 Hm, what, me? 』

Nei’s surprised.

Osaki-san;

『 Uhm, do you not remember me Natou-san? It’s me, Osaki, I remember you well though 』

She smiled at Nei.

Nei looks confused.

『 I’m the president of the choir club, but I joined the choir club at the same time as Natou-san! I remember that 』

Nei was in the same school year as Osaki-san when she enrolled.

『 Did you forget? Natou-san also joined the choir club! 』

Nei, who just entered school, joined the choir club.

『 Natou-senpai, hurry up 』

『 Hurry! 』

The choir club girls also call Nei with a smile.

『 You sure? 』

Nei’s eyes are wet.

『 Why are you asking? You can also sing the school anthem, right? Then come down here 』

『 O-Okay 』

Nei joined the choir club girls.

Nei’s also wearing her school uniform, so she just blends well with the same school girls.

『 The camera, that one, right? 』

『 Yes, that one 』

Nei answers Osaki-san with a voice that’s about to cry.

『 Let’s sing our school anthem 』

Mitama gave her instructions.

The choir club sang with Nei…singing our school anthem.

Singing as a chorus.
