「 I think that you need to lose to someone properly. If you continue as you are, then you’ll get old without being able to use your physical prowess without any purpose 」

Kyouko-san told Grace Marinka-san.

「 I don’t like losing. If I lose, then it’s over. Everything’s taken away from me 」

Grace-san said bitterly.

「 That’s also true. Losing isn’t good. If you start to think that losing is the norm, you’ll develop a habit of losing and you won’t be able to win anymore. Therefore 」

Kyouko-san smiles.

「 You need to pick the one you lose to 」

「 Are you telling me to lose to you? 」

Grace-san glared at Kyouko-san.

「 Huh? You just lost so many times to Kyouko-san just now, didn’t you, Grace-san? 」

Nei asks in surprise.

Right. Grace-san lost to Kyouko-san’s German Suplex hold so many times.

「 I don’t count that as a loss 」

Grace-san said.

「 I don’t remember agreeing to compete in wrestling 」

Err.

Well, now that she mentioned it.

Kyouko-san just suddenly told her to have a match and tossed her around.

But…

Kyouko-san was the clear winner from everyone’s eyes.

「 This is why those who never experienced loss are so troublesome 」

Kyouko-san smiled wryly.

「 They don’t accept that they lost after all. They think that what happened in front of them were just a coincidence, and they didn’t lose because they were weak 」

「 I know that you’re strong. Much stronger than myself right now. But, I’ll definitely become stronger than you. That’s why I may be weak right now, but I won’t lose to you tomorrow. Meaning, I haven’t lost yet 」

Grace-san said.

「 She’s the type who bends her logic absurdly like that. She will never accept her loss no matter what because if she does, her identity will collapse. That’s why… 」

Kyouko-san looked at Edie.

「 You lost in the martial arts tournament, and yet, you’re so proud to be a nuisance in the home of the person who won 」

「 I didn’t beat Jun 」

Edie laughs.

「 It’s the same for her 」

「 True, Seiko, Poron, or Momo, are athletes at heart so they congratulate our victory, but Jun’s different 」

Yeah. Rodulfo Seiko-san or Daiporon Karisman were athletes.

That’s why they accept their loss, and they look refreshed during the party last night.

But for Grace Marinka-san

「 This girl doesn’t intend to lose. Even when Margo won, she believes that she will win if she trains intensely 」

「 Yes. I might not do it right now, but I’ll win someday. If I don’t believe that, I won’t be able to keep fighting 」

Kyouko-san said. Grace-san replies.

「 I think that it’s great that you have the guts, but just because you lost your place, you rolled into the house that invited you to party. You just have bad manners. Furthermore, you have no respect for Margo who won 」

「 Everyone prioritizes themselves the most! I believe that I will be the strongest person in the world, and that’s what makes me who I am 」

Grace-san shouts desperately.

「 Hmm, you’re strong, so what? 」

Kyouko-san said laughingly.

「 I don’t think of myself as the strongest in the world. After all, no matter how invulnerable I am to say, I’m no match against nuclear weapons. Humans have their limits 」

「 That’s sophism 」

「 Well, listen to the end. Talking about nuclear weapons, have you heard of M388 Davy Crockett? Edie should 」

Kyouko-san turned to Edie.

「 It’s a nuclear weapon the US army possessed during the cold war used by the infantry 」

Edie replied immediately.

「 It’s a stupid weapon. The range is only two kilometers so the soldiers who shoot it are almost certain to be killed by the explosion of the nuclear weapon they fired. The U.S. military had manufactured and deployed 2,100 of these joke nuclear weapons in the field. They’re not using it nowadays as expected, but still 」

「 Weapons of mass destruction aren’t easy to use. Now, let’s say you have an M-388 and an ordinary knife. If you use M-388, you can definitely bury your enemies in their graves. It’s a nuclear weapon, so the compensation for that is that you’ll die, and everyone around you is collateral. On the other hand, knives are far behind nuclear power when it comes to offensive power. But, if it’s about killing a single hated enemy, then a knife would be enough 」

Kyouko-san looked at Grace-san’s eyes and speak while smiling.

「 What is strength? What does it mean to be strong? From a certain point of view, the president of the US, who can move the American army in the world is the strongest, right? Even the strongest person in the world in a bare-fist fight is no match against a cruise missile. Don’t you think so? 」

「 I believe in my own strength! 」

Grace-san said.

「 No thanks. I don’t care what you believe in, it’s yours to do. You should acknowledge that people see from a different perspective than you do, and they live by different standards than you do 」

「 I-I know that 」

「 Of course you do. But, you don’t accept the values of other people 」

Kyouko-san said.

「 This is why you don’t know how much Margo’s overtaken you. No matter how serious you get, you’ll never be able to catch up with Margo. Margo’s aiming for further beyond after all 」

Yeah, Margo-san’s training every day. She becomes stronger today than yesterday.

She will not wait for Grace-san to catch up with her strength.

Margo-san’s goal is to win against men.

「 Why do you think Margo’s not here? It’s because she doesn’t want to show her techniques to anyone that’s not in her group. That’s how cautious she is. She’s my disciple after all 」

Right, Margo-san doesn’t participate in the morning training.

「 Kyouko’s just as cautious. Even now, just because Jun was a pro wrestler, you toyed her with wrestling skills. Kyouko hasn’t even put out a percent of her serious power 」

Edie smiles.

「 Well, she knows that. That’s why she’s listening to me. See how arrogant she is? 」

Kyouko-san’s right. Grace-san was underestimating her when she was hiding her strength at first.

But now, she’s listening to what Kyouko-san’s saying at least.

「 She knows it by experience that I’m quite the dangerous woman to cross. She felt that so many times 」

Each time she’s tossed out using the German Suplex Hold.

She felt with her body that Kyouko-san isn’t normal.

That she’s abysmally strong.

「 But feeling it by her skin doesn’t mean that her head agrees. Especially with girls like her 」

Kyouko-san looked at Grace-san and smiled wryly.

「 You have great foundations, and a monster of stamina, that’s why you could win against the majority of them so far. Even if it’s a little stronger, you could manage it as long as it’s a trial of strength, and if you’re no match against them, then you can probably easily beat them with a little more effort and study of their techniques. Well, female pro wrestling in Japan is a small world 」

That’s why Grace-san never experienced a proper loss.

「 I get that the world of wrestling wasn’t enough for you, but now that you’re outside, don’t think that it’s halfhearted There are more physical monsters to go around that are better than you. Furthermore, only people with good qualities will strive for the better 」

「 Uuu 」

Grace-san groans.

「 Those people find it hard to admit that they lost. They feel that if they deny who they are now, it’ll be as if their whole life so far is denied, and their value is lost. Even so, they have to accept it. If not, they can’t move forward

Even if Kyouko-san tries to persuade her, Grace-san;

「 W-What do you know about me?! 」

She opposes intensely.

But…

「 I don’t know anything about you 」

Kyouko-san said smiling.

「 I only live a life of Kyouko, and nobody else. I don’t know about you. But, what I can do is advise the young you with my experience. How old are you? 」

「 21 」

Grace-san replies with a small voice.

「 Hmm. Then, you still have time to fix yourself. Learn defeat 」

Kyouko-san said.

「 Edie’s requesting me so I’m talking to you. Edie’s smiling all the time but her true nature is much dryer than that. She doesn’t help people that don’t have a future 」

「 I can make her admit defeat, but the shock might be too strong that Jun might not be able to recover 」

Edie said while laughing.

True, if Edie, who’s much younger and slender than Grace-san beats her up, she would be quite shocked.

「 I’m not like Kyouko, I don’t like to tease 」

「 Oh? That’s slander you know. What part of me is teasing around? 」

Kyouko-san said with a smile.

「 Well, I guess it’s bad taste to depress a wrestler with the same move over and over again, but it can’t be helped. If I go all out, she’d lose her consciousness, and she won’t remember that she lost. If done poorly, the good material might just become scrap. That’s why I had to hold back 」

Kyouko-san said.

「 I get that. I had to do that on the tournament the other day too 」

Edie was holding back and yet, she still won.

「 My skills belong to an assassination cult. It’s about defeating the enemy quickly in a world without rules. It’s more nerve-wracking to beat people in the ring, where there are rules where you can’t kill or damage them horribly

Edie said. Kyouko-san;

「 If that’s the case, I’ll play with you to relieve your stress. Just for one minute 」

「 Sure, I’ll take that stress relief option 」

At that moment. Kyouko-san and Edie disappeared.

「 Sei!! 」

「 Woooo!!!! 」

The two trade blows at an unbelievable speed.

This is Kyouko-san at her full power.

And this is Edie’s full speed.

It’s been a while since I saw them but still, they’re amazing.

Michi and Mitama, the bodyguards, are also watching their fight.

「 Toiyaa!! 」

「 HAWOO!! 」

Both of them aim for an opportunity, trying to prevent the other from winning.

They also have some dirty tricks and attacks included.

Despite that, both of them are quite steady.

They know the extent of each other’s strength and they match with each other.

That’s why they’re in gear with each other.

If it’s a sharp attack that could be fatal to the body, they avoid it just in time.

No, they also retaliate to counter.

They continue their fierce attack and defense.

「 My eyes were bad 」

Grace-san mutters.

「 To think that they have this much power 」

She misunderstood Kyouko-san’s real strength.

「 I didn’t see through Edie’s true strength either 」

Edie was so close that they slept in the same room last night, and yet…

Grace-san didn’t sense Edie’s true strength.

Or should I say that she underestimated them?

Thinking that Edie’s weaker since she’s younger.

「 Nei, how much more time is left? 」

Kyouko-san asks while fighting.

「 Thirteen seconds remaining 」

「 Good, let’s go for the last spurt 」

「 Okay! 」

Their fight went stronger and faster

「 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Stop! That’s one minute! 」

Nei said. The two stopped their attacks.

「 I guess that was a bit too short? 」

Neither Kyouko-san nor Edie are sweating, not even their breaths got disordered.

「 Yeah. That won’t even count as cardio. Can’t lose weight from that exercise, Kyouko 」

Edie smiled.

「 I don’t mind, my body doesn’t really need to diet anyway 」

Kyouko-san smiled at Edie.

「 What a coincidence. I don’t go on a diet either. Darling is happy with the way my body is right now anyway 」

「 Mine too. Cordelia seems to like this current state 」

「 Yes! Kyouko should just stay as is! I don’t want you to get fatter or skinnier! It loses the comfort when embracing!! 」

Miss Cordelia gets in the conversation.

「 Joking aside, in our level, we can control our heart rate at will. That’s why we don’t sweat when not needed, and our breathing remains in order 」

「 If you ran as fast as you can and huff and puff, the enemy will find you. That’s why you control your heart so it doesn’t throb fast 」

Kyouko-san said. Edie supplements.

「 It’s the same in sweat. We don’t sweat in battle because we don’t want it to get in our eyes. We train ourselves to be this way 」

Grace-san’s dumbfounded.

「 It’s usually irrelevant. Darling loves the smell of my sweat too 」

「 I also love Kyouko’s sweat! Not just the sweat, but everything about her! 」

Miss Cordelia says something so fondly.

「 Well then, I’m hungry now that I moved a lot. You’re going to eat breakfast, right? 」

Kyouko-san asks.

「 Yes. Darling and Agnes went over to call us, right? 」

Oh, right.

「 Yeah, let’s hurry to the dining room. They should be ready by now 」

I say in a hurry.

「 Then, let’s go. By the way, Edie 」

Kyouko-san called Edie.

「 What? 」

「 Don’t you think those two also want a match? 」

Kyouko-san points at the two girls holding at a spear, watching them.

Kuromiya Motoko-san and Mikuriya Kurumi-san.

「 Oh, those girls are fine 」

Edie said with a smile.

「 Please wait! It’s a rare opportunity for us so we want a match too! 」

「 Ever since I saw the fight at the Kouzuki house’s party, I wanted to try fighting at least once 」

Kuromiya-san and Mikuriya-san replies.

「 See? Those girls never experienced loss either so their world and self values are quite bent, aren’t they? 」

Kyouko-san said.

I see. Kuromiya-san had been practicing her spear only with Mikuriya-san.

They’re not aware of their own power.

「 Yes, they can’t look at themselves objectively. But there’s no need. Leave those girls be. Let’s go eat breakfast 」

Edie said.

「 Their spears aren’t fit for their purpose in the end. They don’t have the makings of joining our family. They say that they want to be Darling’s concubine, but they only do that for the form’s sake. That’s how they are 」

Edie’s appraisal of Kuromiya-san is quite low.

「 Oh, I see. I guess there’s no use in giving them advice. They can understand the theory, but I can’t sense any intelligence 」

Kyouko-san said.

「 That’s right. No matter how hard they try, the best they can be is becoming Darling’s semen toilet. That’s because they lack the fundamental intelligence 」

Edie told Kuromiya-san as if she’s trying to pick a fight with them.
