The second sword, Oborozuki, which has been carefully prepared, has swallowed Sebas and Bacchus.

(Okay, it worked! ......!)

　The space where the Oborozuki is placed creates a slight gap, a "fault in the air".
　Normally, the two top-notch swordsmen would not miss these.

(But we are fighting in a very special environment right now.

　A wet floor with little friction.
　A long, light wooden weapon (mop), unlike an iron sword.
　A body blistered by sauna, water bath and long bath.

　In such an environment, it is difficult to use your senses as usual.

(And to top it all off, there's this steam that's constantly rising from the hot spring.

　This covered up the air faults and allowed me to make quite a few slashes.

(Did you try ......?)

　The "storm of slashes" raging in front of my eyes was suddenly torn apart by an extremely large slash that was released from within.

I was really chilled, you know. I didn't know that you were planning to do something like this just to stall for time. ....... Allen, you really are a tricky guy. ....... I'm sure you're not as bad as you think, are you?

I'm not sure what to say. I'm not sure what to make of it.　I'm not sure what to make of it. For someone so young, you're fighting a cunning battle. ......!

　There are a number of shallow sword wounds on the bodies of Sebas and Bacchus.
　But the two mops in their hands are still intact.

(d*mn, I missed the kill. ......)

　Unfortunately, Oborozuki seems to have been defeated just one step short.

(...... has no more cards in hand.)

　The only thing left to do is to endure the onslaught of Sebas and Bacchus, and pursue the winning strategy of "running out of time".

(.......) (How did this happen? ......)

　I suddenly became calm and glanced to the right.
　There, a precipitous wall separating the men's and women's baths rises up.

　I'm not sure what to make of that.

(...... Leah, are you enjoying yourself?)

　The men's bath is hell on earth.

　I thought I came here to relieve the fatigue of my training, but somehow I ended up fighting to the death with the four knights under the emperor and the former world's strongest swordsman.

　To be honest, it's much harder than the training.

(But I can't afford to whine about it. ......)

　There is only a little time left.
　(But I'm not going to whine about it. ) There are only a few hours left.
　Then all of Sebas's and Bacchus's evil schemes will be for naught.

　I exhaled loudly and took a straight-eyed stance.

"Well, we've only got about five minutes left, ...... and that's just the end of it.

"Kid, let's get this over with. ......?

　The two men held their mops in the middle of the room with the most serious expressions they've ever shown.

Oh, come on, ......!

　This is how I went into the final battle to protect Leah.
