The Sword Deity In Tokyo Chapter 241 - They Refuse To Be Scammed

Chapter 241: They Refuse To Be Scammed

After five minutes, a referee stepped out under the worried gazes of the audience to make an announcement.

"Don't worry, everyone. The player from Sakura Kyu, Furuhas.h.i.+ Harunaka, is alright. She's just feeling exhausted over her entire body after performing such a powerful sword style. Furuhas.h.i.+ Harunaka mentioned that she will go up the stage to receive the award during the award ceremony."

The bustle and noise of the audience gradually died away upon hearing that. They would be rather dubious if the referee merely mentioned that Furuhas.h.i.+ Harunaka was exhausted. However, they felt relieved as Furuhas.h.i.+ Harunaka would be attending the award ceremony later. Since Furuhas.h.i.+ Harunaka was still able to get on stage and receive the award, it meant that there really were no serious injuries on her body.

Letting go of their concerns, many of them started to discuss the sword style that Furuhas.h.i.+ Harunaka used earlier.

The scene earlier was so heart-shaking that they were unable to recover from the thrill until now.

The moment the compet.i.tion started, Furuhas.h.i.+ Harunaka straight away appeared behind Katsuki Sugawara, the other contestant. Such a scene that would only appear in a movie was truly stunning.

Of course, the most important thing was that everyone could clearly see the movement of the main character in the movie as the movie would play in slow motion. However, there was no such thing as slow motion in reality. Therefore, they could not even see what Furuhas.h.i.+ Harunaka did at that particular moment.

Luckily, the whole compet.i.tion was recorded. Although human eyes were unable to capture how Furuhas.h.i.+ Harunaka released her attack and the speed of her movement, they could go the the official website and playback the compet.i.tion video later at night.

Meanwhile in the infirmary, Natsui and the other two were looking worriedly at their eldest sister, Harunaka. They set their mind on asking Harunaka to give up on Kendo as it was too dangerous after all. This was Harunaka's second time lying on the sickbed. But their words were stuck in their throat when they saw the joyful smile on Harunaka's face.

Chiba s.h.i.+ori, who stood by the side, looked at her rival in admiration. Her persistence to win gave her tremendous stress. She knew with that kind of compet.i.tive behaviour, Harunaka definitely would not give up in pursuing Kazuki.

Harunaka would not give up, and neither would she. There could only be one winner in love and it would absolutely be herself!

As for Kimura Kazuki, he was speechless when he looked at Harunaka lying on the bed. Since they partic.i.p.ated in the Jade Dragon Flag Compet.i.tion, this was her second time lying on the sickbed.

The first time was when all her body muscles were strained as she comprehended the sword power. Luckily he used reiki to slightly heal her wounds and with the help of modern medical treatment, her body was cured.

What about this time? Even though the Youbi Sword Drawing Skill is a one hit attack move, it's not that the user will faint after the attack is performed. He would never invent such a sword style. Only those who were wholeheartedly into Kendo would come up with such a sword style that would either make them or their opponents die.

Kimura Kazuki understood the whole circ.u.mstance in a flash.

It turned out that Harunaka could feel the coursing of her vital energy and blood the moment they finished bowing. Something lit up in her mind, she wondered if it was possible for her to utilize the vital energy and blood in performing Youbi Sword Drawing Skill. Sadly, she could not afford to think thoroughly at that time. Furthermore, senpai told her that since she only spent a short time cultivating the Youbi Sword Drawing Skill, the power of the attack remained to be confirmed. It was still unknown whether she could defeat Katsuki Sugawara. After all, it was right after senpai invented the sword style where he only had an estimation of its power in his mind.

Being the inventor of the sword style, he needed to test out how powerful it was after inventing it. However, Kimura Kazuki did not have the time to try it out. He handed it to Harunaka right after he made sure that there was no danger in the Youbi Sword Drawing Skill. He never thought that she would actually merge the power of her vital energy and blood into the sword skill the moment the compet.i.tion started, she really was gutsy.

Harunaka felt uneasy when she saw her senior lost in thought, she cautiously asked, "Senpai… Will there be any side effects?"

Everyone was staring at Harunaka with concern upon hearing that, especially Natsui and the other two. An anxious look plastered across their faces. Fuyuno thought she was just exhausted, but wouldn't she be doomed if there would be a side effect? Thinking about it, she could no longer maintain a calm demeanor. She asked anxiously, "Senpai… Is there a way to treat it?"

Kimura Kazuki shook his head, but upon seeing the changes of expression on their faces, he realized that they had obviously misunderstood. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, it really is just fatigue. However, it is really dangerous that Harunaka merged her vital energy and blood into the attack just now, don't simply try it out like this next time."

Everyone let out a sigh of relief upon hearing that.

The power of vital energy and blood was not really blood, it was actually the essence in the blood. It could even help to improve physical fitness and build a strong body if it was utilized properly. Many people had used this method in his past life. However, the power of the vital energy and blood was not scientifically proven, hence simply using it could easily lead to unnecessary incidents.

Fortunately, Harunaka was lucky that nothing happened to her. This was also the reason why he felt relief. Besides, it would be easier for Harunaka to utilize the power of her vital energy and blood after the experience of this incident.

Kimura Kazuki could not help but be amazed upon thinking about it. Harunaka's strength had skyrocketed ever since he taught her Kendo.

It seemed like she would be able to gain reputation in the Ancient Kendo Community even without his instructions in the future.

"Harunaksan, are you alright?" The door to the infirmary was pushed open at this moment, revealing Katsuki Sugawara who was peeking in from the outside. She could not help but ask the question when she saw that there were many people in the infirmary. Yayoi Momoi who stood behind her gently pushed open the door, dragging Katsuki in while holding a basket of fruits. She then said softly, "We're here to visit Harunaksan."

Unlike Harunaka, Katsuki Sugawara wanted to become the champion solely for the purpose of proving to Yayoi that she was very strong, and that she would definitely become stronger in the future so that Yayoi could be at ease. As long as they were powerful enough, people would not dare to judge them for being lesbians.

Harunaka was different, it had been her obsessiveness to win this champions.h.i.+p after practicing Kendo for more than a decade. That was why she fainted after the referee announced her victory. Harunaka's heart finally relaxed completely at that moment. Otherwise, it was impossible for her to collapse with the willpower she had after she comprehended the sword power.

As for Katsuki and Yayoi, even though they did not win the champions.h.i.+p, they still had a chance to prove themselves in the future… However, if Harunaka was left with some kind of side effect because of this champions.h.i.+p, they would feel ashamed of themselves. Now that they knew she was okay, they could not help but feel relieved.

A staff member came into the infirmary afterward to inform Kimura Kazuki to dress himself properly and get ready in the rest area as the individual match was starting soon.

Ikioi Ito was standing at the side, and his eyes beamed upon hearing that. He wanted to start a betting round in the group again… However, n.o.body gave him any response regardless of what he said this time.

Kimura Kazuki can surely defeat Mizuki Sugawara in a second. Is there even any doubt in this?

In that case, everyone would surely bet on Kimura Kazuki. That sounded very reasonable, but Ikioi Ito felt that he could discuss it with Kimura Kazuki. He wanted to ask the latter to stall for time during the compet.i.tion and surprise everyone in the group, so that he could scam everyone again. Unfortunately… everyone ignored him.

What a pity… millions of money is gone just like that.
