161 – Olympic Finals (8)

“Everyone!” Look!”

“This quarterfinals ended with Korea’s victory!”

“This is the moment when Korea, which suffered such a miserable ending to Japan in New York four years ago, finally secures a silver medal in London!”

“I am so proud of our national team players! This is an absolutely unbelievable sight! “It means that Korea succeeded in defeating two countries called the Big 3 in this Olympics and made it to the finals!”

The Republic of Korea, an unfortunate country that has always been excluded from the medal list except for the early days of Thousand’s operation.

But at this moment, as today’s game ended with Korea’s victory, the players waiting on the bench, the manager, coaches, and all staff rushed to the stage.

“Silver medal, silver medal confirmed!”

“Korea has finally advanced to the finals!”

Although it was a somewhat disturbing scene, coach Kim Jong-seong was in tears, befitting his age, and stretched out his arms toward the players.

Of course, no matter how thrilled they were, no player wanted to be held in the arms of a coach who only had a few strands of hair on the top of his head, so all the players were trying their best to ignore his presence. .

It was like that.

After a close battle over a total of 5 rounds, this semifinal match ultimately ended with the victory of South Korea.

There may be many factors that led to today’s match ending in Korea’s victory, but if we were to cite one most decisive reason, it would be because Eugene caught Arrieta in the first round through an amazing strategy and surprise attack.

After unexpectedly losing to Eugene in the first round, Arrieta humbly acknowledged his defeat and said he would not compete from the next round.

Of course, Eugene also did not play from the second round, as if he had lost all his strength while dealing with Arrieta, so at first glance, it can be said that the two teams played the remaining matches in a very even state.

However, the fact that Arrieta lost to Eugene in the first round match, which could actually be called the ace match, had a tremendous impact on the morale of the British national team players.

The morale of the British national team players who saw Arrieta lose plummeted to the ground, but on the contrary, the Korean national team players who saw Eugene win were able to display 120% of their skills.

While the players of the Korean national team were all experiencing joy from the excitement, Chunhwa hurriedly ran to the bottom of the stage with an expression on her face that seemed to be as if she had been blessed by something.

The person she ran to with all her might was none other than Eugene. Although she only participated in the first round, it is no exaggeration to say that she was the star of today’s match.

“Mr. Eugene!”

Cheonhwa, who ran with all her might her, was almost hugged in Eugene’s arms her her her.

In the first round, she spent so much energy and willpower fighting Arrieta that she almost got blown off by a headbutt.

Of course, at the last moment, she was able to balance her body by mobilizing all her remaining she will her her her, so she did not create such an ugly scene.

If it were the usual Eugene, she would have been taken aback by Cheonhwa’s sudden behavior her, but the current Eugene was a little different.

Eugene patted Cheonhwa’s back her to her her, who was almost hanging on to her, and then headed towards the lounge located behind her stage her.

Perhaps because the game ended, it was an extremely quiet place, with many staff members who were supposed to be there having left the place.

Right there, Arrieta was waiting for Eugene with her arms crossed.

“Really, it’s been a few months since I came to Earth, but I still don’t understand the culture of the people here. At best, she seems to be enthusiastic about this type of pastime and rejoice in her victory there as if it were her own business.”

Arrieta pouts her lips and says something like that, as if she doesn’t like something about her.

At first glance, it seemed to her that it was a disparaging remark that seemed to treat all the people of Earth risking their lives for the Olympics as fools, but Eugene could only shrug his shoulders at Arrieta’s remark her her her her.

“Well. “If you had beaten me in the fight just now, I don’t think those words would have come out of your mouth.”

“… Ugh.”

When Eugene said, ‘You’re not good at games,’ Arrieta gritted her teeth as if she had run out of things to say.

But even for a moment, she sighs and sighs at Eugene, who is looking at her and smiling brightly.

“… Ha, I have to admit it. You are right. No matter how careless I was, I was defeated by you and you won against me. Well, if you think about it, it was pure luck… “

“Oh, how lucky you are. “I think that was just a strategy targeting the gap in your heart?”

Arrieta frowned at Eugene’s teasing and teasing, but she couldn’t say anything.

Because, leaving everything else aside, the fact that Arrieta lost to Eugene in the match just now was true.

“… Now that I think about it, I was really stupid. Even though I performed the [Festival of Nothingness], I didn’t even suspect anything when I saw that you were busy blocking my attack instead of using your own realm of thought to counter it… “

The most reliable way to block the other person’s thought field is to also expand your thought field and cancel out each other’s fields.

Of course, not being able to use the realm of thought, which can be said to be one of the trump cards, is quite a painful blow, but it can still seal the opponent’s trump card for sure, so it can be said to be an act that results in plus or minus zero. It was there.

However, even though Eugene saw Arrieta performing the [Festival of Nothingness], He did not try to offset it by holding the [Festival of Swords].

Seeing Eugene like that, Arrieta felt something strange, but she didn’t seem to think deeply about him because what on earth could Eugene do in this situation?

However, it could not be possible that the reason she did not use [Festival of the Sword] Until the end in this game was not because of her differences, but after secretly transforming the sword called Yuria into human form, she continued to use her intention to surprise her at the critical moment. It was because I was using it up.

“… I let my guard down. I thought that if you used that strategy, you would definitely use Altina, but I never imagined that in the meantime, you would have obtained a sword from somewhere on Earth.”

Arrieta muttered softly, clicking her tongue, and opened her mouth, looking at Eugene as if she had suddenly remembered something.

“Now that I think about it, you registered the sword called Yuria in the [Festival of Swords], Right? No, they definitely registered it. Otherwise, that sword called Yuria would never have had a clear will and moved for your victory.”

“Uh? Ah, well. That’s right. Yuria, like Altina, she is an ego sword with clear free will.”

Arrieta narrows her own eyes at Eugene’s affirmation and looks at him with suspicion.

“Hmm… Judging from the way he talks, it seems he is very friendly with that sword called Yuria. By the way, I’m just asking this just in case… “

“What is it?”

“Before, I was in such a tense situation that all I felt was something called Ego Sword ambushing me from behind?”

“… But?”

“I’m just asking you just in case… That ego sword named Yuria… Surely it’s not a female ego sword like Altina?”

“…”

When Eugene remained silent and did not respond to Arrieta’s words her her, she closed her eyes tightly to this extremely dark reality.

‘I thought it couldn’t be possible, but in the meantime, I couldn’t give up my habit and increased my speaking sword.’

Altina, just that one sword she wanted was enough to make her head hurt to death, and now, upon hearing that she had another sword, Arrieta pressed her temples. ﹥

‘No matter what, there’s something wrong with truly competing with the talking swords over Eugene.’

Arrieta sighed as she realized that she was like a fairy when she was fighting with Ryu Mina and Adele Haidt over Eugene.
