『 We will return after a commercial break! 』
Dan Toushiko-san’s disciples carry her out of the ring.
Nei smiles at the camera.
Since the school swimsuit judo tournament is on commercial TV, there will be commercials.
「 Oh, Edogawa foods, the same company that paid for the last martial arts tournament 」
I recall the petite chairman of Edogawa Foods who was also the organizer of the previous martial arts convention.
「 Yes, Margo-san asked them to sponsor today’s broadcast 」
Katsuko-nee said.
The chairman of Edogawa foods is supporting Margo-san’s dream of becoming a female fighter and winning against the male fighters in the US and has become Margo-san’s sponsor.
Margo-san asked him to sponsor today’s show as well.
「 Edie-chan’s sport seems to be a success 」
Katsuko-nee smiles.
「 Yeah, at first, I think the viewers don’t know what’s happening, but… 」
「 But, Nei-oneesan’s wackiness and beauty manage to deal with that 」
「 The viewers will get glued to the screen 」
Eri and Rie said.
「 And then, Edie-neesan knocked out that big Dan-san, who looks like an auntie in just a single blow 」
「 Yeah, now the audience is convinced that it’s indeed a martial arts tournament 」
Edie knocking out Dan-san creates a good flow.
「 Even looking at the current video, I’m sure that’ll cause quite the stir over the net 」
Haiji said.
「 Nowadays, you can’t rely on just TV ratings, if it’s fascinating on TV, then it’ll get viral over the internet right away 」
「 That’s right, people who like fighting will tell others about Dan-san’s profile 」
「 They can tell that it wasn’t a fake that the smaller Edie-oneesan beat Dan Toushiko-san, who’s an accomplished fighter, in just a single blow. 」
「 Indeed. Edie-chan benefits from that public execution on TV, but there’s nothing for Dan-san at all.
Haiji, Rie, Eri, and Katsuko-nee said.
Right, they’re serious fighters in the martial arts tournament,
All the fans know is that Dan-san is a strong fighter, who’s serious about martial arts.
Furthermore, she didn’t announce that she’ll join Margo-san’s US challenge like Rodulfo-san and Poron-san.
There’s no reason why she should give Edie, who’s still a high school girl, and a member of Margo-san’s team, a reason to give a win.
「 If I recall, the previous tournament also made waves over the internet, right? 」
Haiji asks.
「 Yeah, if I recall, you can watch it for free on youtube 」
「 If so, those who are interested in Edie-oneesan in this current broadcast will watch those videos as well 」
Then, Edie had an overwhelming win in the tournament.
She’s just a freshman, yet, she won the lightweight class.
「 Yeah, seeing that, they’ll see Edie’s skill and how she defeated Dan-san 」
It’s a tournament with contestants from various gyms and dojos, so there’s no match-fixing.
「 AFter this, Rodulfo-san will fight Mimi-san, Poron-san, and Grace-san, and the high school girls division, featuring Line Haruko-san and Kudou Haruka-san, and the group will be worth watching 」
Kudou Haruka’s learning Kudou arts now, so her skills have started to spread out.
Line-san also trained with Edie and the girls multiple times.
「 Still, it’s amazing that they managed to get it on air 」
It was just yesterday that Edie said that she’ll start a school swimsuit judo tournament, and it’s happening today.
「 They must’ve forced their way to some Sunday afternoon drama rerun 」
Amazingly, they make it through such recklessness.
「 She can’t wait to get them to watch. Edie-chan I mean 」
Katsuko-nee smiled.
「 You see, she wanted to show those thirteen girls that they can make a living as a martial artists 」
The thirteen girl assassins came from Southeast Asia.
「 That’s right if you see it on TV, it gives you a much more tangible image of how the world works 」
Eri said.
「 Martial arts is a business, and it’s everywhere, I’m sure it’s easy for those girls to imagine it as one of their future plans 」
Rie too.
「 They grew up from childhood thinking that there’s only prostitution, assassination, or crime syndicates, but in this world, there will always be adults who like martial arts. Well, some aren’t many fans of martial arts as they just make bets on the matches 」
Haiji, who’s raised in Europe slums, said.
「 The life plan we proposed to them after quitting assassin is currently at four, right? Baker, bodyguard, martial artist, and mother, right? For the bakery, we showed them where we worked yesterday and today, so they can visualize what it’s like to do this kind of work and how they can make a good living if they get many customers 」
Katsuko-nee said.
「 So, the next one would be watching her on TV in a martial arts tournament, showing clearly and plainly that becoming a martial artist is a viable choice 」
Edie and Grace-san can talk about them being martial artists, but they can’t imagine themselves being the same.
Seeing them in the ring with a large crowd on the TV screen, it’ll be their first time thinking that they want to make a living by being a martial artist like Edie.
「 Edie-oneesama’s skills are amazing, and she’s smart too. And yet, why does she have such a patient personality? 」
Haiji said.
「 Edie’s patient? 」
I asked.
「 Yes, I feel that way. Edie-oneesama always concerns herself with the people around her and takes measures to cope with them. She always smiles, waiting for those around her to understand the meaning of her actions 」
Haiji looks down bashfully.
「 In the past, I was under the impression that my ideas are always better than those around me. That’s why I was angry at people who can’t judge the situation at the same speed as me. “Why can’t you figure it out?” is the attitude I had 」
Right, Haiji was quite aloof when she was Mariko’s bodyguard.
「 Right, Haiji-chan and Edie-chan are both quick thinkers, that’s why you get irritated with the speed of normal people 」
Katsuko-nee said.
「 I’m no match against Edie-oneesama. Edie-oneesama and Michi-oneesama are much more amazing than me. 」
Haiji’s right, Edie and Michi are on the level of geniuses now.
「 Yes, we sisters can see the minds of everyone but Edie-oneesama and Michi-oneesama’s too fast for us to follow 」
One of the Takakura shrine maidens, Yomi, also agrees.
「 However, when Edie-oneesama realizes that we can’t follow, she deliberately slows down and summarizes the main points in her head 」
Edie’s being considerate even to the girls who can read minds.
「 As for Michi-oneesama, I have no idea what she’s thinking from start to end 」
「 Yeah, even I have times where I don’t even know what Michi’s thinking 」
Michi’s a genius girl and also a masochist, and add her love for Misuzu as a factor and she speaks things that are far beyond my understanding.
「 Oh? Wasn’t Edie-chan the same? When she came over? 」
Katsuko-nee?
Well yeah, when she escaped Miss Cordelia and started living with us, I don’t even know what Edie’s thinking.
「 But, that’s only because Edie couldn’t speak Japanese yet, right? 」
I say, but…
「 I don’t think that it. Edie-chan adjusted her speed to match with us. When she’s with Kyouko-san and Cordelia-san, she’s in a hurry with her thinking and she acts immediately as she comes up with the idea 」
Oh right, Miss Cordelia went to Japan hostile to us.
That battle at the hotel last May was a fight with our life on the line.
Even Edie was in battle mode.
「 Edie’s gone from being too tense to be more in tune with our speed of thinking 」
「 Yes, Edie-oneesama does speak weirdly on purpose, but… 」
Yomi said.
「 But, we know how Edie-oneesama’s train of thought flows, first, she speaks in fluent Japanese in her head, and she purposely breaks it down to her usual tone. By doing that, she slows down her speed of thought, by organizing the thoughts as she speaks so we can understand her 」
I see.
「 Edie-chan has it hard too. She’s too talented that she got kicked out of her birthplace 」
I tell Haiji and the girls.
Edie was born as the granddaughter of the leader of the assassination cult in New Orleans and then sold to miss Cordelia after her Grandmother’s death because the new leader hated her.
I know why it happened this way.
Edie’s too smart that she’s much more talented in assassination skills than anyone.
For those whose brains are just ordinary, Edie’s existence scares them.
That’s why they kicked out such a capable girl.
「 Edie also had that time, that’s why she’s trying her best to be considerate on fitting in our family 」
I think so.
◇ ◇ ◇
『 Welcome back, we’re now starting our real first match! We’re starting with the showdown between the martial arts beauty witch and the flying karate master 』
『 Rodulfo Seiko-san and Monkey Mimi-san! 』
『 Well then, let’s go!!! 』
After commercials, Nei calls for the match.
Gong!!
The gong rings and Rodulfo-san and Mimi-san, wearing their school swimsuit and judo uniform clash at the center of the ring.
『 Damn, this ring makes it hard to stand firm 』
Monkey Mimi-san, who does Karate, delivers a series of light spinning kicks but the wrestling mat bounces and they don’t hit Rodulfo-san.
『 As expected, we’ll go with the textbook tackle and mount 』
On the other hand, Rodulfo-san’s bigger than the lightweight Mimi-san, so she aims her movement as soon as Mimi-san lands and launches a body blow from the shoulder, but…
『 Anyone who makes the mistake of tackling me gets slammed down 』
The light Mimi-san avoids the tackle.
『 Oh? I thought that it was just a weird title attached to you but it seems that I was wrong 』
『 You think I’m the one who made this nickname?!!! 』
Mimi-san went and jump-kicked Rodulfo-san on the face.
『 If that kind of bold move misses, you know what will happen 』
Rodulfo-san avoids Mimi-san at the last moment, and then she grabs Mimi-san from behind as her posture is broken.
『 I won’t let you!! 』
『 Woah! 』
『 Namusan!! 』

『 Eiii! Katonbome!! 』
As expected of the two veterans, their match is quite spectacular.
They continue their flashy back-and-forth for three minute round.
Lastly.
『 I got you!!! 』
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Rodulfo-san unties Mimi-san’s judo belt and pulls it.
『 Arerere!!!! 』
Then, Mimi-san’s obi gets pulled off.
『 And there we have it, match over!! 』
Nei stops the match as per the rules of the school swimsuit
『 Err, the first round lasted 2 minutes and 48 seconds. The winner, by pulling the Obi, is Rodulfo Seiko 』
Saito Yuki-san, announces.
『 Aaah, dammit! I forgot about the rule where you lose if your obi is unwrapped 』
Mimi-san’s frustrated
『 Hehehehe. Mimi-san does Karate, so she usually puts on a belt, and she’s forgotten about it 』
Nei laughed.
『 Oh? I’ve trained in Judo too, so I’m familiar with its uniform and belts 』
Rodulfo Seiko-san said laughing.
『 I used to untie girl’s belt when playing so it’s no surprise that I won, Ohohoho!! 』
Rodulfo-san’s accustomed to taking off belts.
『 Okay, that may be frustrating Mimi-san but please get off the ring. We need to go to our next match 』
Nei smiled and moved forward with the next match. Poron-san and Grace-san appear.
『 Mimi, I’ll avenge you!! 』
『!!! 』
The two got up the ring.
『 Okay, the next match is between a bewitching half Japanese-German karate master and a pro wrestling star 』
『 Err, it’s Daiporon Karisman-san and Grace Marinka-san! 』
『 Well then, let’s get ready to rumble!! 』
Gong!!
This time, it’s a matchup of uncontested open-weight division.
『 I may not look like it but I’m eager to study 』
Poron-san smiles.
『 Margo-san had good points during the last tournament, but I’ve also thought of fighting against you at some point so I’m going to give you a lesson 』
That’s?
『 I already know your weakness now 』
『 Oooh, that’s interesting. 』
The two athletes with tall heights face each other at the center of the ring.
『 Well then, let’s go!! 』
Poron-san moved forward and hits Grace-san with a straight fist.
『 Hmph!! 』
Grace-san read Poron-san’s attack?
She twists her body, ducking the right fist, and attacked Poron-san with her elbow!!
『?!!! 』
Poron-san somehow managed to avoid Grace-san’s attack and she took distance.
『 Then, how about this? 』
Poron-san moves forward and thrusts her fist in front of Grace-san.
No, that’s a feint.
She spreads the fist stretched to Grace-san’s face and opens her palm to block Grace-san’s view
While at it, she throws a spinning kick from an angle Grace-san can’t see.
But.
Grace-san also saw that coming.
She ignores the feint and stepped forward to catch Poron-san’s kick.
『 Hmph!! 』
Then, she pushed Poron-san away with all her might.
『 Kyaan~ What are you doing?! 』
Blown away and knocked down to the mat, Poron-san stood up and faced Grace-san.
『 Weird, what’s going on? 』
Poron-san is panicking.
『 You’re a pro wrestler with a strong body, but your attacks are monotonous and only rely on power, or how it should be. You should be full of openings like when you were at the tournament last time 』
Grace-san answers back.
『 It’s because I’ve been training with Edie. A lot 』
She replies with a blank face.
『 Edie’s pointed out each of my mistakes. That’s why I’m different from who I am before
『 What? That’s unfair! 』
Poron-san said, but…
『 What’s unfair? You studied my weakness in the past, but I overcame those weaknesses. That’s all 』
『 But, it’s not like you did it all on your own! You owe it all to Edie-chan 』
『 I’ve been a burden in Edie’s home. It’s a paradise there. You can train as much as you want, and you have a lot of training partners. Their food is good, and the girls are beautiful 』
Grace-san, who had been expressionless, shows a smile.
『 If I don’t get strong, then I’d feel sorry for her family 』
This time, Grace-san comes attacking.
『 Hmph!! 』
Grace-san gives a mid-kick, Poron-san tries to receive it with her body, but…
『 Iyaan! 』
Unable to dampen the momentum, she’s blown to the ropes.
Poron-san fell on the mat, and Grace-san;
『 Stand, I’m a former pro wrestler. Even when there’s a difference in strength, we can use our time to put on a good show
『 Damn 』
In the end, they continued to fight for exactly three minutes.
In the end, Grace-san stripped Poron-san’s belt and that’s the match.
『 Sorry, Mimi-chan, I lost 』
Poron-san tells Mimi-san below the ring.
『 If that’s the case, then we’ll also go to Edie’s home for training camp! There’s good food and beautiful ladies! 』
Hey, don’t go to our home!
『 With that done, our last match in our Beauty Witch League will be between Rodulfo Seiko-san and Grace Marinka-san!! 』
Nei said. Commercial, then finals.
And this fight too.
『 Hey, seriously, you’re too different from the last time! 』
Rodulfo-san is also surprised by Grace-san’s change.
『 Jun’s got exceptional qualities. It’s just the people who trained her before were bad. I just fixed it, so she’s just getting better 』
Edie from below the ring laughs it off.
『 You fixed her too much. Geez!! 』
Even from a 6th kyu me, I can tell that Grace-san’s movements are much better.
Compared to the last time where she just moves linearly with brute force. She changes to a more varied attack, anticipating her opponent’s actions ahead of time.
「 Edie-oneesama’s got the talent as a trainer. In that regard, she surpasses Margo-oneesama 」
Haiji said.
She’s smart, and patient, she gently teaches the other party until they understand.
That’s why Grace-san will do whatever it takes to get stronger under Edie’s guidance.
『 Eei, if that’s the case, I’ll just make a show! 』
Rodulfo-san went for a bold move.
『 Seiya!! 』
She goes for a mid-kick.
『 Too shallow! 』
Grace-san received it, but…
『 Don’t receive that, Jun! 』
Edie’s call was late.
『 Enyantoo!! 』
Rodulfo-san kicks with her other leg while one’s caught.
『 It’s the jumping arm hell reverse crucifix 』
As soon as Haiji says that.
Rodulfo-san attacks Grace-san with her technique mid-air.
『 Nguu!!! 』
Grace-san’s taken by surprise, and she falls to the mat with Rodulfo-san’s arms pushing her down.
『 How’s that? Give up? 』
Rodulfo-san shouts in excitement.
『 It’s over! Rodulfo-san loses! Match over!! 』
Nei said. There was a sound of sadness.
『 Eeeh, why? 』
Rodulf-san still holds Grace-san’s arms, asking Nei.
『 Rodulfo-san’s belt is taken off. That’s unfortunate 』
Poron-san points it out.
Doing that tricky jump attack skill loosened Rodulfo-san’s belt.
『 Oh no. Oh my gaaah!! 』
Rodulfo-san, 25, speaks shyly, as her school swimsuit is exposed underneath her judo uniform.
