Chapter 91: Sylvio-niisan’s Sturdy Defense
「Are you practicing inside the house?」
「Of course we’re not. We’re playing you know, just playing. It’s Hit and Hide Jankenpon.」
Sylvio-niisan - who ca inside my room - said「Of course, right」 as he gave a clean-cut smile.
「If you can do such a sharp swing when you’re playing like this, you should you also practice seriously.」
Eleonora-neesan said that to who got up, but I ignored her.
「It has such a long na, but I can imagine the gist of it. The one who won in janken hit with the stick, while the one who lose put on the bowl on their head, right?」
Sylvio-niisan curiously touched the hand-made cloth stick and the bowl.
Just by hearing the na alone, he understood the ga.
「Yes, that’s right. But you can only aim for the head okay. Wanna try?」
Yes, if I fight with Sylvio-niisan right now, then I should be able to make Eleonora-neesan and Sylvio-niisan fight each other after that.
I’m already satisfied that I was able to hit Eleonora-neesan’s head.
What’s next is to sohow make these two fight with each other, and I can just run away as they fought.
That way, I can escape naturally from this place without anyone being suspicious of .
It’s not a good idea to confront Eleonora-neesan.
Since my head will just get struck with the stick again and again. And using all of her strength at that.
It’s truly convenient for that Sylvio-niisan ca inside at such a timing.
「Un, okay. Guess I’ll try.」
Because of that, Sylvio-niisan and I will be having a showdown.
Just like before, the both of us sit facing each other.
For so reason, Eleonora-neesan is standing diagonally behind .
「Speaking of which, when will this play end?」
Well now, just when we’re about to begin, Sylvio-niisan asks a reasonable question.
Co to think of it, just now I played this ga without setting for the victory condition, I just played the ga.
That is to say, that the ga will continue until both parties are satisfied.
Which ans that the battle between Elonora-neesan and I will not end with just a few gas.
If Sylvio-niisan didn’t pass by by chance, I’d probably have to play the ga with Eleonora-neesan for dozens of tis until she was satisfied.
What a close call. I’m feeling truly grateful to Sylvio-sama.
「That’s right isn’t it. Then if you hit the opponent’s head three tis, it’s your win. And you can’t dodge when you lose okay.」
「Un, okay.」
「What’s the person who dodge earlier saying. If you dodge, I’m the one who will hit you in Sylvio’s stead alright?」
Eleonora-neesan - who stands diagonally behind - holds a towel in her hand as she makes a whip-like sound with it. It feels like I’ll be hit from behind at any mont.
I see, so this sister of mine wanted to watch so I didn't dodge.
The sound of the towel diagonally behind is really frightening.
Wouldn’t it be really painful if that were to hit like *whack* or *smack*?
「Well then, start?」
While being scared of the horror behind , the signal was given.
「「Rocーk Papeーr, Scissors!」」
, Rockー.
Sylvio-niisan, Scissors.
Yosh, I have the first move!
Just like when facing Eleonora-neesan, at the sa ti as I begin to move, I use Psychic magic to pull the stick to my hand.
Then I tried to hit Sylvio-niisan’s head with a flowing movent using the stick……but Sylvio-niisan was already in a defensive posture with the bowl on his head.
「Wh, whatt!?」
I stop moving and shout in surprise as I saw such an unexpected situation occur.
Th, this guy is so fast. He wears the bowl just like a turtle.
「……activating Sylvio Barrier, huh.」
「Looks like he did. I wonder if I could hit him at the last mont? 」
If it were Eleonora-neesan, she would make it in ti. She understood that much just by swinging her hand a little bit, huh.
「Err, I just wear the bowl normally.」
With a wry smile, Sylvio-niisan took the bowl from his head.
When I tried to raise the stick overhead and bring it down, he wore the bowl again with lightning speed.
「Hey, was there a need to do so?」
Sylvio-niisan glanced with his blue eyes, and said that while looking unhappy.
You, are you a shellfish or sothing?
「Sorry sorry, it was so fast that I wanted to see how it happened. I won’t do it again.」
「You surprised you know, so don’t do it again okay?」
I put the stick on the floor, and the ga resud when Sylvio-niisan also put the bowl on the floor.
「「Rocーk Papeーr, Scissors!!」」
, Rockー.
Sylvio-niisan, Paperー.
Not good, considering the speed of Sylvio-niisan’s defense a mont ago, his attack speed might be the sa as that.
I imdiately reach out to take the bowl, and bring it to my head.
If it were as fast as before, then it wouldn’t be strange if the stick were to co close to my head shortly.
I close my eyes, frantically covering my head with the bowl.
Did I make it in ti? Then the mont when I thought so, there’s a light impact and a sound from the bowl *bsh*.
「What are you doing Sylvio. You had enough ti to brandish the stick and hit him just now right?」
At the sa ti as I opened my eyes, I can hear Eleonora-neesan’s unhappy voice.
You really want to see being hit that much, huh………
「No but, it might look like that but, I swing it while exerting quite a bit of strength on the stick you know?」
「You swing it like this, like this, see!」
Eleonora-neesan rolled up and swung the towel, trying to show him how to do it.
「Eh? Like this?」
「Wrong!」
Then Sylvio-niisan tried to imitate it by swinging the stick, but it seems that it’s not how it’s done.
Apparently, Sylvio-niisan only specializes in defense. As expected from Sylvio Barrier.
Maybe, this ga…is going to be a long one.
Will my endurance last, or will his defense be broken, or should I break the Sylvio Barrier first?
If it becos so, then I will be at a disadvantage.
It’s not like I particularly wanted to be able to hit Sylvio-nissan, but if I were to lose, then I might have to remain here.
And when I remain here, then my next opponent will be Eleonora-neesan………
But if I win, I will have the right to raise an objection to that. The loser will not be given such rights.
In other words, I can’t lose this fight.
「Understood. I’ll try to keep that in mind as much as possible.」
While I was thinking about that, it seems that the lecture over there is over.
Sylvio-niisan’s face looked a little bit tired as he put the stick on the floor.
「Yosh, let’s start the next round alright?」
「「Rocーk Papeーr, Scissors!」」
, Paperー.
Sylvio-niisan, Rockー.
All right, now it’s my turn.
Eleonora-neesan might be suspicious as she looked at sharply, but there’s nothing I can do about it.
I pick up the stick by activating Psychic magic a bit far from before.
――however, at that ti, Sylvio-niisan had already worn the bowl.
「Naaa!? What the heck?」
This is a cheat, a cheat I say! There’s no way I can beat him like this right!
「Just now, did the stick just move on its own?」
Behind , Eleonora-neesan bent over and said that doubtfully.
I tried to hide it with my hand as much as I could, but it seems that she beca suspicious because the timing was too fast.
In Eleonora-neesan’s eyes, when my hand reached for the stick it might look as if the stick were being pulled toward my hand a little.
It’s better to ignore it now.
Though if it were Nord-tousan or Elna-kaasan, they would realize it.
I have to take the risk to that extent, but even though I have increased my speed, the opponent defended faster than .
「Take this! This!」
「Ahahaha, you can only hit once you know」
I was feeling frustrated and hit him again and again in vain *bsh bsh*, and maybe he knew it too so he said that in a calm voice.
I hate Sylvio-niisan’s calm voice.
If so, I’m going to stop pulling the stick.
This ti I’ll attack from a different direction.
The ga resud, and I lost two tis in a row, but I managed to defend myself both tis.
「「Rocーk Papeーr, Scissors!」」
, scissors.
Sylvio-niisan, Paperー.
Finally, it’s my ti to attack. The mont my hand reached out for the stick, I cast 「Psychic」.
But the target this ti is not the stick, it’s the bowl.
Even now, Sylvio-niisan is still trying to grab the stick, but I slightly moved the bowl.
Maybe because the bowl shifted, Sylvio-niisan’s finger missed the bowl.
And then, I hit Sylvio-niisan’s head - who is full of opening - with the stick…!
A nice *supaan* sound resounded inside the room.
「Luckyー!」
If I say it like this, it will give the impression that Sylvio-niisan just made a careless mistake.
「I missed the bowl. Rather, it’s a bit painful……」
Sylvio-niisan rubbed his head while laughing 「Ahaha」. My conscience did hurt a little, but this ti my life depends on it so I have no choice but to do it.
It looks like, this ti, Eleonora-neesan doesn’t have any suspicious thoughts in particular.
Thanks to such an atmosphere between us, it beca a relatively possible situation of Sylvio-niisan failing to grab the bowl.
In reality, the wooden bowl beca harder to grab.
I don’t want to use the Psychic magic successively since it will make it look suspicious, so I will carefully take my ti in playing this ga.
My Psychic-less attack can’t break through Sylvio Barrier, while Sylvio-niisan also can’t break through my defense, dozens exchanges of offense and defense occured.
Then Eleonora-neesan grew impatient, and offered a suggestion.
「Co on, both of you are taking a long ti doing this. The person who manage to land a hit next will win okay.」
「Understoodー」
Maybe we both know that this won’t end anyti soon, Sylvio-niisan and I exchange glances and nodded.
It’s not okay for Sylvio Barrier to be too strong.
But you know, it’s the umpteenth ti since Sylvio-niisan missed the bowl.
Guess it’s about ti, huh?
I might even lose my concentration, and if I were to make a declaration that the first to strike is the winner, the tension would also increase.
And there’s also the possibility that I will just fail to grab the bowl.
Physical activity is not my strong point, and that’s even more so for Sylvio-niisan.
Now is the ti!
「「Rocーk Papeーr, Scissors!」
, Paperー.
Sylvio-niisan, Rockー.
I moved the bowl with Psychic just like before.
Because of that, the bowl shifted slightly from its original position. Thus, Sylvio-niisan’s finger pushed the bowl as if hitting it, making the bowl move farther.
「No!」
「Die! Sylvio-niisan!」
The mont I believed in my victory, a voice could suddenly be heard.
「I wonder why is it so noisy, you even use magic, just what are you doing?」
It was Nord-tousan, who ca to see what’s going on after hearing the disturbance we caused.
「………ah」
「「………magic?」」
Two piercing glares are shot toward , who is currently stuck in my posture of raising the stick.
Then, Eleonora-neesan and Sylvio-niisan turned their eyes toward Nord-tousan.
Wait Nord-tousan, don’t say sothing unnecessary………!
「Mm? I felt magic power coming from Al you see.」
A, ahー! This Dragon Slayer is really… Even when I was a baby, he could feel the flow of my magic power. How did he do that? Was it the intuition of a first-class adventurer, or the intuition of soone strong?
「I’ve been thinking that sothing was strange since so ti ago, so you used magic, huh!? It was your doing when the stick move by itself before, right!」
Hearing Nord-tousan’s words, Eleonora-neesan looked back and was indignant as she stamped on the floor *dann*.
You can clearly see the shaking caused by her anger are transmitted to her reddish brown ponytail.
Because I hit her at the start with the help of magic.
「Then, the reason the bowl escape from my grasp a while ago is also because of that?」
Maybe Sylvio-niisan is actually suspicious about that, he turned his gaze and stared at .
Alfried is cornered.
For now I silently hit Sylvio-niisan’s head, and beco the winner of this ga.
「It’s my win, okay. Next, Sylvio-niisan will play with Eleonora-neesan. I need to go to the toilet………」
「Wait a minute, Al.」
After saying that, I was about to leave the room, but then my shoulder was grabbed.
It’s obvious who’s the one grabbing my shoulder.
I want to go far away using Teleport………
At most I will be forced to beco Eleonora-neesan’s opponent, I wonder if I’m going to be trashed.
When I was thinking like that and having a distant look in my eyes, Eleonora-neesan grinned while saying sothing outrageous.
「I have a good idea. You will play with tousan after this.」
「………eh」
「Mm?」
………the Dragon Slayer was extrely strong.
