ロン老師が折り畳んでいた右拳を突き出すのに合わせて前へと出した井上さんの一部が、大きな音を立てて斜め後方へと吹き飛んでいきます。
どうやら拳の一撃による衝撃波の様なものを飛ばしているのでしょうが、コチラから視認できないのが面倒臭いですね。
「《圧害》」
「《地動郭》」
前方一面に迫る空気の圧をやり過ごす為に、足元の地面の一部を上へと伸ばす事で空中へと退避します。
上空から下を見てみれば、先ほどまで私が居た場所に立つ不自然な土の柱が勢いよくへし折れ、砕かれているのが分かりますね。
どうやら本当に彼は本気で私を殺しに来ているようです。
「《流星槍》」
上空からロン老師目掛けて勢いよく銛を投擲すると同時に、天井から伸びる鍾乳石に張り巡らせた糸を足場にして跳躍......自らもロン老師の懐へと飛び込みます。
銛を選んで私に組み付かれるか、それとも私を選んで銛に貫かれるか......ロン老師ならそのどちらでもない選択肢を選んでくれると信じていますよ。
「──カハッ?!」
私達に向けて身体の側面を晒したと思った次の瞬間にはロン老師の右拳が頭上の銛を弾き、左の肘鉄が一拍遅れてやって来た私の腹部を穿っていました。
山田さんとポン子さんは飛ばされて天井へと突き刺さり、私は血反吐を吐きながら水着によって晒された無防備な白いお腹にドス黒い痣を作りながら吹き飛ばされます。
「......ケホッ、カハッ......オェッ......」
ここに来て鎧を着込めないのが響いて来ましたかね。
まぁ仕方がないので応急処置として、篭手とブーツの部分だけ井上さんを装備しましょうか。
装備してしまうと私という判定から装備という判定に変わってしまい、井上さんのHPが少しずつ減ってしまいますが......まぁ腕と足の部分だけならダメージは微量ですし回復が間に合います。
「ほう、このワシに体術勝負を挑むと?」
「武器が飛ばされてしまいましたので......それに、老人である貴方より筋力と体力では勝っているつもりですが?」
「ふむ、まぁ良かろう」
なるほど、確かにロン老師はロノウェさんと血の繋がりがある様ですね......確かロノウェさんも拳一つでとても強かった覚えがあります。
そしてそのロノウェさんよりも長く生きており、メタ的な発言をするのであれば、プレイヤー達のメインストーリーの攻略によって段階的な運営からのテコ入れもされているであろうロン老師の方が強いのは自明ですね。
ロノウェさんとは似ているようで、けれども確かに違う強さがあります。
「《深海圧撃》!」
お互いに一気に距離を詰め、技を放つ......私の親指だけを曲げた掌底と、ロン老師の竜の爪を模した様な変わった握り方の拳が中間地点で激突します。
スキルレベルでは向こうが、筋力などの基礎ステータスでは魔統っている私が大きく相手を引き離している感じでしょうか......逃がし切れなかった衝撃が直に腕へと伝わり、私とロン老師の右腕から血管を沿うように肉が避け、血が吹き出していますね。
......まぁ、だからなんだと言う話なのですが。
「はぁっ!」
お互いに利き腕の負傷など気にも留めず、至近距離での殴り合いを開始します。
一旦引いた右腕を突き出しての目潰しを裏拳で弾かれ、私の体勢がほんの少し右に傾いたところを狙って振り上げられた鋭いつま先の一撃を左脚を折り曲げる事で上げ、防ぐ。
左の膝小僧にロン老師の足先がめり込む痛みに眉を顰めながらも、これが顎に刺さらなくて良かったと冷静に分析します。
「やっ!」
「ほっ!」
ロン老師の足の一撃による衝撃を利用しながら片足だけで跳躍しながら回転し、その勢いのままに右脚による回し蹴りを放ちます......が、そのまま足首を掴まれ、握り壊されながら地面へと叩き付けられてしまいます。
ですが分かりやすい大きな挙動にロン老師の意識を逸らす事は出来たようで、彼の肘裏や脚の付け根に毒針を刺す事が出来ましたね。
「本当に手癖が悪い......いつもと違う装備で感覚が違うじゃろうと煽ってやるつもりじゃったのだがな」
背中から叩き付けられた衝撃からか、髪を留めていたバレッタが音を立てて遠くへと飛んで行きます。
無造作に広がった髪も、叩き付けられた時の体勢もそのままに、苦々しい顔をしているらしいロン老師に向けて口を開く。
「弘法筆を選ばずという諺を知っています──かっ!」
「そんなもん知らんわ!」
握り壊されてしまったのであれば仕方がないと、そのまま起き上がる勢いのままに掴まれた右足首を支点に空中で回転し、ロン老師の顔を目掛けて左足で蹴り上げる。
奇しくも腕を上げる事で防がれてしまいましたが、毒針をさらに深く刺し込み、右足首も解放されたので良しとしましょう。
三田さんにお願いして右足首を治して貰いながら、私も井上さんのHPと損傷を回復してあげますか。
「シっ!」
すぐさま追撃を仕掛けてくるロン老師に対応する為に、牽制目的の毒針を投擲しながら一歩前へと踏み出します。
目前へと突き込まれる右拳を、掌底で顔の横へと弾きながら、腕をクロスさせる様に私の顎を狙って振り上げられる左拳を反対の手のひらで受け止める。
そのまま私の顔の横へと拳を弾いた掌底を握り締め、ロン老師の顎を打ち抜く──
「──甘いわぁッ!!」
掌底に弾かれ、私の顔の横を素通りした右拳を自身の元へと引き戻す過程で開き、そのまま後ろから私の首を掴まれ、持ち上げられます。
......これは、不味いですね......まさかこの様な技術があるとは露知らず、まんまと急所を敵に明け渡してしまうとは。
「がっ、ぐぅ......!」
私の首を掴み持ち上げるロン老師の右手首を両手で掴み、拘束を振り解こうとしていると見せ掛け、相手が握力を強めたところで自身の重心を両手から相手の右手首へと掛けながら振り子の様に両足を空中へと持ち上げる。
その勢いのまま、両膝で右肘を挟み、右足首をロン老師の左肩へと乗せて首に向けて引っ掛ける様に添え、左足首を右の脇下から掬う様に通す事でロン老師の右腕と首に身体全体で抱き着く形になります。
その体勢のまま首に引っ掛ける様に置いた右足首でロン老師の後頭部を蹴り上げながら、右腕を捻り折る様に全体重を掛けて回転する事でロン老師を頭から地面に叩き付けます。
「がぁっ、ぐっ......は、離しな、っ......さっ......」
頭から叩き付けた衝撃で大地が割れているというのに、ロン老師は未だに私の首から手を離そうとしません。
何という握力をしているのでしょうか、老人には全く似合いませんね。
ですがまぁ、そろそろ右肘に刺した毒針から痺れ毒などが効いてくるでしょうから、離さざるを得ないのも時間の問題と言えるでしょう。
「ぐっ、ふん! お望み通りに離してやるわァ!」
ロン老師もそれが分かっているのでしょう......叩き付けから復帰して直後に私を引き寄せ、やっと首から手を離したと思ったらそのままスキルを伴った背負い投げを仕掛けて来ましたね。
この一連の早業を妨害する術は今の私にはありませんが、タダで喰らってやるつもりもありません。
「ぬぅ?!」
右腕に抱き着いた時に仕込んでおいた糸を手繰り寄せ、投げ飛ばされた衝撃等も利用しながらロン老師自身も道連れにします。
スキルによる背負い投げで思いっ切り壁に叩き付けられる私と、その私から伸びる糸によって遠心力に引っ張られる様にしてロン老師もまた離れた壁に叩き付けられます。
「はぁ、はぁ......」
「ぐっ、ゴホッゴホッ......」
上に乗っかる岩を退け、口元の血を拭いながら息を整えます......どうやらここまではお互いに決定打に欠ける様ですね。
老人の癖に、魔統っていて毒や糸などの武器も使う私よりも優勢とは信じられません。
「──ふふっ」
「......何が可笑しいんじゃ」
いけませんね、思わず笑みが溢れてしまいました。
大事な『遊び相手』であるロン老師が苦々しい顔をしているではありませんか。
「失礼致しました......その、貴方との『遊び』が......楽しくて仕方がなくてですね......」
「......」
無邪気で幼い子どもが、新しい玩具を買って貰ったかの様にはしゃいでしまった事を恥じる様に口元に手を添え、謝罪の言葉を言います。
ですが、そんな私の様を見てロン老師は『益々理解が出来なくなった』とでも言わんばかりに顔を顰めていますね。
「......そんな顔をされると少しばかり傷付き──いえ、嗜虐心が顔を出してしまいますね」
何となくムカついてしまいますし、まるで上からさも自分とは違う異物として見られている様な気分になってしまいす。
そんな事をされると、勘違いしたアナタを私と同じ場所へと堕としてしまいたくなりますね。
私から首を締められれば死ぬ癖に、自分とは関係のない世界に生きる異物として見る者達が気に入りません。
......えぇ、本当に気に入りませんね。
「それは申し訳なく思う......が、今さら謝罪なぞはせんよ」
「私も求めてはいないので結構です」
仕切り直しですね......お互いに構えを取り、目線と足先の向きで相手を牽制しながら位置取りをして──
As Sage Ron thrusted his folded right fist forward, a part of Inoue, who brought his fist forward just as Sage Ron's thrust, was blown backward diagonally with a loud sound.
It seemed like a shockwave from the fist strike, but it's annoying that I can still see it.
"Pressure."
"Earthquake"
To pass the pressure of the air approaching the front side, a part of the ground under my feet is extended upward to evacuate to the air.
When I looked down from the sky, I could see the unnatural column of earth that stood where I was just a moment ago. It was snapped and crushed with great force.
Evidently, he really is serious about killing me.
"Meteor Harpoon."
I threw my harpoon from the sky at Sage Ron with great force. And at the same time, I leaped towards him,......, using the threads stretched across the stalactites from the ceiling as a foothold, into Sage Ron's chest.
Sage Ron can dodge the harpoon and get entangled with me, or dodge me and let the harpoon pierce him ....... ...... I believe that he will choose neither of those options.
"Kaha?"
The next moment, when I thought he had exposed a side of his body to me, his right fist bounced the harpoon above my head. And that, his left arm pierced my abdomen, which was just a beat later.
Yamada-san and Jun-san were sent flying. They were impaled on the ceiling while I was blown away, spitting up blood and making dusky black bruises on my unprotected white belly exposed by my swimsuit.
"...... keh, cahhhh ...... oww ......" I exclaimed in pain.
I guess the carelessness of not using the armor is starting to take its toll on me.
It can't be helped, so as a first-aid measure, I equipped Inoue-san's just parts of arms and boots.
When I equip it, it changes the status from "me" to "Inoue," and Inoue-san's HP will decrease a little and I could recover. ...... Because it's just the arms and legs, the damage is slight, and recovery is possible in time.
"Oh, you want to challenge me to a physical contest?"
"Even if my weapon has been blown away, ...... I think I have more muscle and strength than you, old man?" I said.
"Hmm, well, that's good."
I see that Sage Ron seemed to have a blood connection with Mr. Ronove. ...... I remember Mr. Ronove was very strong, even with just one fist.
And if I were to make a true statement, it is obvious that Sage Ron is stronger than Mr. Ronove. He also has been alive longer than Mr. Ronove has. And he probably has been supported by the management step by step through the players' main storylines.
He fights similar to Ronove yet certainly has a different level of strength.
"Deep Sea Pressure!"
We both moved in close and unleashed our skills...... My palm collided with Sage Ron's clenched fist that looked like a dragon's claw.
I could not escape the impact, and it was directly transmitted to my arm. The blood vessels from our right arm spurted out the blood.
"...... Well, so what?"
"Huh!"
Without considering the injury to each other's usable arm, we begin to exchange blows at very close range.
I was hit by a backhanded blow to the eye with his arm, which I had once pulled back. And he attacked with a sharp toe strike, aimed at my stance, slightly leaning to the right. I raised my left leg to prevent the blow.
I frown at the pain of Sage Ron's toe digging into my left kneecap but calmly analyze that I'm glad this didn't strike in my chin.
"Yeah!"
"Ho!"
Taking advantage of the blow from his leg, I spun around while leaping with only one leg, and with the momentum of my leap, I threw a spinning kick with my right leg ......But I was then grabbed by the ankle and knocked to the groundbreaking my grip.
However, it seems that I was able to distract Sage Ron with my recognizable loud movements. I was able to stick poison needles in his back, elbows, and at the base of his legs.
"I was going to tell you that you're terrible with your equipment ...... and you're not feeling the same way with your unusual equipment."
Perhaps from the impact of being struck from behind, the barrette holding my hair made a sound and flew off into the distance.
My hair was spread irregularly, but Sage Ron's body was still intact. I opened my mouth to Sage Ron, who seemed to have a pained look on his face.
"Do you know the saying, "A good writer never chooses his brush..."?" (Kobo wa hiraku wo yasenzu)
"I don't know anything about that!"
He broke my grip, so I tried to get up. With the momentum of getting up, I rotated in the air using my right ankle as a fulcrum and kicked Sage Ron in his face with my left foot.
Oddly enough, he blocked me from doing so by lifting his arm, but it was a good thing because I had inserted poison needles deeply, and his right arm was released.
While healing my right ankle, shall I also recover Inoue-san's HP and damage?
"Shh!"
To respond to Sage Ron, who immediately launched a follow-up attack, I took a step forward while throwing a poison needle for backup purposes.
I caught his right fist thrust with the bottom of my palm to the side of my face. And also another left fist, which was raised to my chin, by crossing my arms with the palm of another hand.
I threw his fist near his face, clenched my palm, and punched him in the jaw...
"That's sweet!"
His fist, which attacked me, departed in the process of pulling it back to myself, and he was able to grab my neck from behind and lift me.
This is not good. ...... I had no idea that such a technique existed. I would be surrendering a vital point to the enemy.
"Gosh, guh ......!"
I grabbed Sage Ron's wrist with both hands and tried to lift myself. I pretended as if I was trying to break free from the restraints. And when he tightened his grip, I shifted my center of gravity from my hands to his right wrist, lifting both of my legs into the air like a pendulum.
I held his elbow between the knees with this momentum, placing my right ankle on Sage Ron's left shoulder and hooking toward the neck. I pulled my right ankle through the right armpit to form a body-wide hug around his arm and neck.
In this position, I kicked Sage Ron in the back of his head with my right ankle, which is placed as if it were hooked around his neck. I spun him around with my total weight as if I were twisting and breaking his right arm. Then I knocked his head to the ground.
"Gah, gg ......let go, gg ...... gg ......."
Even though the earth cracked from the impact of the blow to his head, he still refused to remove his hand from my neck.
What kind of grip does he have? It does not suit an old man at all.
But I guess it is only a matter of time before the poison needle in his elbow will start to work, and he will have to let go of my hand.
"Ugh! I'll let you go as you wish!"
Sage Ron probably knows that too ... Immediately after returning from slamming, he pulled me in, and when he finally let his hand off my neck, he just threw me on my back.
I have no way to prevent this series of quick moves, but I'm not going to take it either.
"Nuh?"
I pulled in the thread I had put in his right arm when I hooked him. And by using the impact of being thrown away, I also took Ron with me.
I was slammed against the wall by a skillful back throw, and he was also slammed against the wall, pulled by centrifugal force by the thread.
"Huh, huh. ......"
"Gosh, gosh, gosh. ......"
I moved away from the rock on top of me, wiped the blood from my mouth, and caught my breath. It seems that we have not been decisive against each other so far.
I can't believe that he has the upper hand over me, given that I am a demon and uses weapons such as poison needles and thread.
"Hehe..."
"...... what's so funny?"
I shouldn't have, but I couldn't help but smile.
Sage Ron, my opponent, was looking very bitter.
"I'm sorry ...... I've just been having so much fun 'playing' with you ......." I said.
"......"
I put my hand over my mouth and said sorry, as if ashamed for being an innocent, young child who gets excited playing with a new toy.
However, Sage Ron looked at me and frowned, saying, "I don't understand you anymore".
......When he made a face like that, it made me feel a little hurt - no, it made me feel a little bit angry.
I felt a little offended and as if someone was judging me like I was a stranger.
When someone does that, I want to put them in the same place as me, where they are misunderstood or judged.
I wouldn't say I like those who would die if I strangled them, but I see myself as a stranger living in a world with nothing to do with me.
...... Yeah, I don't like it.
"I'm sorry about that ......, but I won't apologize now."
"I'm not looking for one either, so no thanks."
We're going to finish each other off. ...... We're going to take up our positions, and we're going to use our eyes and turn our toes to keep our opponents insight...
