Chapter 32: Blind Spots
The back, in terms of biological structure, is the most wonderful existence.
A place second only to the head that cannot be looked directly at by oneself.
However, compared to the head, which is a top priority in itself and is easy to defend, although it is also a weak point, it is unexpectedly not given enough attention and cannot be adequately protected.
Namely, the so-called, blind spots.
Physical blind spots, and even more, psychological blind spots.
Conspicuous, vulnerable, vulnerable.
It's like deliberately hitting the throat of a blade, and it's like being exposed to the light in the dark.
Is it a bad joke by the Creator, or is it a gamble set up to make living beings learn to be interdependent?
Leave your most fatal weaknesses and blind spots to your companions, and build a crumbling bridge between vile betrayal and loyal friendship.
Teasing, testing, trust, redemption, countless histories are all tossed and turned on such a "back".
The so-called "my back, I'll leave it to you!" After all, such handsome lines can only come from the mouths of the ignorant or the lucky.
But when someone, with all the sincerity that can be felt, says to you, "Can you give me your back?"
Especially, when the person who said such words was still the princess of one country, no, it was the princess of two countries, no, no, no, no, to be precise, it was two princesses of one country......
How do you choose?
Chaotic expression, as in the past, Kazama Hiroha is now in the head.
"Uh...... That one...... Shall we have lunch first and then discuss ......"
"No, you can't!"
In unison, it was rejected.
Closing his mouth with a bang, Kazama Yangyu fiercely looked at the fragrant and tender steak in front of him that exuded a devilish temptation and swallowed his saliva, the golden-like dazzling thick soup, with a thick but not greasy strange meat aroma, made Kazama Yangyu, who had been tossed for a night, but had not eaten rice, instantly moved his index finger.
But...... However, the two groups of people in front of them, led by two young girls, seemed to have no intention of starting lunch.
"That...... Actually, it doesn't matter, right...... No matter who you team up with......"
Quietly glanced at the Terran princess who was still dressed in purple, and even wore a birdcage umbrella during the meal, Yiyi, Kazama Yangyu pouted helplessly, and then turned his head to look at the elf princess Qianqian, who was still soft, but rarely had a firm gaze.
"Anyway, at most, I only have the skills of the summoner and the mindsetter...... Mirror Photographer or something, for some reason, can't be used casually...... So ......"
"That's why Kazama-kun (Guardian-sama) needs to be with us!"
Accidentally synchronized intonation.
Then, there is a renewed silence.
In the silence, the sound of a king-sized "bahaw" with no table manners to speak of was heard clearly, slowly tormenting the hungry Kazama and pushing him to the brink of madness.
As the privilege of a child, willfulness can be interpreted as cuteness, rudeness can be interpreted as ignorance, and stupidity can be interpreted as stupidity...... So, the three little ghosts who didn't know why they still followed like farts - the three sisters of the Nan family, under such privileges, unceremoniously began to chew and chew.
"Moe King or something...... 咕 (zhi) to this uncle once (chu) field...... Let's chirp, chirp...... You don't have to fight at all to take ...... Grunt...... It's ......."
Swallowing the piece of meat as if satisfied, Nande shrewdly smoothed his chest comfortably, looking indifferent.
"Uncle or something, go with whomever you like. By the way, the conditions for teaming up with us are very simple, as long as there is such delicious food at every meal, of course, if there is a dessert after the meal, Uncle Ben will work harder. ”
"I'll work harder!"
"It's going to be more ...... It's so sleepy......"
After a lot of unashamed self-promotion, the hateful little ones started their own "haw, haw, haw".
However, the point is not here, the point is ......
Big...... Uncle?!
Unexpectedly...... It's already there, is it the age of the uncle......
The corners of Kazama's eyes jumped hard, and then, as if shocked, wilted.
The exuberant appetite was instantly reduced by half.
In the quiet air, there was a "crackling" sound of eye contact, which spread silently.
Yiyi and Qianqian, two girls, two old friends, still didn't say a word, but they confronted each other tensely.
"When Kazama-kun was about to promise me, he suddenly came out to stop something or something, Qianqian still loves to make trouble like when she was a child~"
Suddenly, without warning, he began to dig through old accounts.
"Pounding, messing ...... or something"
Cheeks, slightly crimson, Qianqian was unexpectedly a little flustered, and then, suddenly, raised her head and counterattacked.
"Obviously, Yiyi wants to steal food while I'm not with the Guardian! When I was a child, I wanted to taste the food I liked, and then I couldn't grab it, so I cried to get my sister's sympathy and let her help you. ”
“…… That, that's not because Qianqian is too childish to even share happiness with others. ”
“…… Childish or something...... Collect the mirage gas that his father gave him like a baby, and show it off several times a day without showing it to other friends. ”
"Isn't that Qianqian the same, when I was a child, ......"
The two girls started a new round of mutual revelation between their girlfriends from the beginning.
"That...... Uh-huh! I said......"
In a slight cough, the two princesses suddenly began to wake up, snorted softly, suddenly turned their heads, and then turned their heads very unwillingly.
The invisible and tangible gaze refocused on Kazama's body.
There is an inexplicable heat, with starlight hope, slowly rippling.
"Uh...... Although I already have a general understanding of what you are talking about the 'No. 1 Moe King Martial Arts Conference in the World', I will confirm it again to be on the safe side......"
Yes, the "World's No. 1 Cute King Martial Arts Conference", the beginning of everything, is because of this upcoming gorgeous event that belongs to the unique Garden of Eden.
"This conference, men and women, young and old, as long as they are students of the Garden of Eden, can participate, right?"
"Yes!"
Su Yu nodded and said.
"After all, it's once every ten years, and if there are any restrictions, some students may not be able to experience it."
Yes, so be it...... For example, an alien like himself who doesn't know when to go back to his own world, if there are any restrictions, it is estimated that it will be completely useless......
"Oh, that's fine."
Kazama nodded, and out of the corner of his eye, he unconsciously glanced at the steak that was still steaming.
The Adam's apple rolled down vigorously, and then quickly raised his head, looking as if nothing had happened.
"But about the name...... How do you feel a little weird......"
"Huh, isn't that strange...... Originally, it was an activity that was not only better than fighting, but also more than selling cute~"
Gently stroking a snow-white fluffy mass in her hand, Nana explained with a serious face.
"And,It's not just girls.,Even boys.,You also need to sell cute~"
…… Sell moe or something...... The so-called martial arts conference has to look at the appearance and cuteness in addition to defeating the crowd? !
What kind of strange premise is this?! Is it true that when intelligent life forms are well fed and clothed, they will naturally begin to re-pursue this most primitive aesthetic?
"I, you can choose...... Don't you participate......"
Slightly hesitant, but Kazama asked tentatively.
Then, more than a dozen eyes stared at him in unison.
"Big brother...... We're here for you! If it weren't for the 'Dragon Scale' in the championship reward, a lazy person like me would be too lazy to compete for this cute king......"
It's still a fresh-looking bird's nest head, with a flame-like red, this guy is full of vitality every day...... It's really enviable......
In particular, there is a flaming sister attached to the side!
"Dragon's Scales...... ......"
In my memory, a moon-white scale emerged...... That is, the reality of dreams.
"I ...... I see...... That is, the crux of the matter now is...... I'm only one person, and both Qianqian and Yiyi want me to join your team......"
Nodding his head clearly, Kazama raised his head with a slight groan.
"Yiyi's words, forget about it, but Qianqian's words, is there a reason why you have to get the Meng King?"
The inquiring gaze ushered in, as bright as the sunset.
Raising her head slightly, Qianqian's purple eyes looked straight over.
"Because the dragon's scales are a necessity for the guardians, therefore, no matter what, Qianqian must grasp this hope with her own hands."
Something,Suddenly, it gently touched the softness of Kazama Yangha's heart.,Then,Gradually sink into.。
For a moment, Kazama Yangyu was a little distracted, and a warm current surged into his heart in an instant.
"It seems that it can really only be split in half......"
Sighing softly, Kazama raised his head as if he had thought of something.
In my ears, there were moving notes.
"If it's just to win the championship, I have a reason not to back down. Dragon's Scale, I'll bring it back well, so, Qianqian, this time, please trust me and give me your treasure for the time being......"
Unexpectedly, he lowered his head to his old friend, and in the lower edge of the birdcage umbrella, two tightly pursed lips were exposed.
The air, suddenly, was a little heavy.
In the solemnity, there was a glimmer of light, mischievously passing in front of Kazama's eyes, and then in an instant, sweeping to the blind spot that had been hidden in the darkness.
Thinking, blind spots.
Something that is covered by common sense.
"That...... Although it is not good to ask about this rule again at this time...... But this martial arts tournament is a group competition......"
Dozens of eyes involuntarily gathered.
With confusion and incomprehension.
made Kazama Yangha's heart, which was originally cheering for the discovery of the new continent, instantly become a little empty.
"So...... Is there a rule that one person can only participate in one group......"
