Chapter 394: The strongest swordsman in the world!
Tsukasa didn’t feel surprised why Arisuin thought that they were dead because their opponent was Edelweiss. She wasn’t the one that was created by Sara’s ability. Instead, she was the real deal, and undoubtedly, she was the strongest swordsman in the world.
Her presence was so quiet, yet she was like a star.
Even if there was a large building, various trees, a beautiful night sky, and many others, they naturally became a background for Edelweiss.
Their eyes were dragged into her as if someone grabbed their heads and forced them to see Edelweiss.
While Arisuin was scared to death that he couldn’t even stand up, Tsukasa took a deep breath and stood in front of Arisuin to protect him.
Even if Tsukasa was quite uncomfortable with Arisuin, it didn’t mean he would just run away to protect his life. On the contrary, he would bring him along if they were running away.
Arisuin somehow could take a breath since the pressure on him was eased.
Still, whether it was Tsukasa or Edelweiss, neither of them thought much about what Arisuin was thinking.
While Edelweiss was surprised to see someone as handsome as him, making her snow-white-like skin turn slightly crimson, she quickly hardened her heart.
On the other hand, Tsukasa didn’t expect the strongest swordsman to be so beautiful. ‘She should be 30 years old, right?’ Similar to Nene, he could also tell that Edelweiss was still a virgin, yet he wasn’t surprised. After all, as the strongest swordsman, it was impossible for her to be approached or approached by someone, considering how high her bounty was. It was also hard for her to believe in someone.
Even if Edelweiss was approached, it would be many stupid Blazers who wanted to prove that they were the strongest by fighting her. There was also a danger if she made a relationship, considering how many forces in this world might try to catch her loved one.
Still, Tsukasa must admit, even if Edelweiss stood in front of him, his body was all tense. He didn’t summon his Device and just stood in a place, looking straight at her without looking away.
Yet the pressure unleashed by her was just ridiculous!

Tsukasa could definitely tell that Nene wasn’t this woman’s opponent. He might be surprised, but the surprise he brought to Edelweiss wasn’t less.
His appearance was one thing, but the power which he hid was something that made her expression solemn. Even if he appeared full of opening, she could clearly tell that if she moved, he would move.
“You’re Edelweiss?” Tsukasa asked.
“That’s right.” Her voice might seem detached, but it sounded so sweet. “What about you?”
“Kugayama Tsukasa.” Tsukasa gave a light smile and said, “Please remember that name.”
“…I will.” Edelweiss slightly hesitated, then asked, “I’ll let you go, but can you give the person behind you?”
“!!!”
Arisuin felt his entire body was cold. Initially, he was dumbfounded when he saw Tsukasa and Edelweiss talking to each other normally. After all, their opponent was the biggest criminal in the world!
Yet Tsukasa seemed to be at ease in front of Edelweiss.
However, when Arisuin was mentioned, he knew he was already dead. Yet he didn’t fight back since he knew he might not be worthy of staying alive, considering how many people he killed.
However…
“No.” Tsukasa shook his head and said firmly, “I won’t give him to you.”
“Why?” Edelweiss raised her eyebrow and asked, “Unlike you, he’s a criminal.”
“Even so, I won’t give him to you. Even though I am not good with him, watching you take him away is impossible for me.” Tsukasa wouldn’t give Arisuin up.
“Tsukasa…” Arisuin was moved.
“On the other hand, are you here as a part of the Akatsuki Academy?” If so, even though it was unfortunate, Edelweiss would be his enemy. By then, he would use his “charm,” making her unable to fight his words.
“No, I am not part of the Akatsuki Academy.” Edelweiss shook her head and said, “I owe someone, so I have to help him.”
“Is that so? That’s great…” Tsukasa sighed.
“…Why?” His answer slightly dumbfounded Edelweiss.
“Because I don’t want to become your enemy,” Tsukasa said simply. Instead of an enemy, he wanted a different type of relationship with this strongest swordsman.
“…You’re weird.” If it was someone else, they would try to fight her. After all, her reputation was there. As a Blazer, it was natural for someone who wanted to become the strongest, and by defeating her, one would be able to achieve that title.
“Really?” Tsukasa felt weird and said, “I guess the people in this world are quite blind for ignoring a beauty like you.”
“……..” Edelweiss.
“……” Arisuin was in a daze before he felt his entire body lose power. ‘Tsukasa!’ He wanted to scream at this moment since if it was someone else, he might not say much, but this guy was asking for death to molest Edelweiss!
Yet somehow…
Arisuin looked at Tsukasa’s face and thought there was a chance.
As expected, even if it was hard to notice during the dark and considering how far she was, Edelweiss blushed lightly. “…Do you wish to die, Kugayama-kun?”
“How scary~~.” Even though he sounded like he was terrified, his expression didn’t change much.
Edelweiss frowned, then said, “Take out your weapons.”
Tsukasa sighed and asked, “Do we have to fight?”
“…….”
Her silence acquiesced to his question.
Tsukasa knew their fight was inevitable, so he summoned his Device.
The black particles appeared from behind like the fallen angel’s black wings before forming into a jet-black cubic.
The cubic floated on his side before it turned into the Drying Pole.
When Edelweiss saw Tsukasa holding the Drying Pole, her expression changed.
Their eyes met each other as if it was their fate to meet each other.
Their meeting was inevitable and something that had been set by heaven.
Yet their meeting was far from intimate since they would start their battle at this moment.
Their eyes, body, and blades were sharp, ready to cut down their opponent at any time.
“You’re good, Kugayama-kun.” Her praise came from her heart since it was her first time seeing someone whose swordsmanship might match her.
“You too.” Tsukasa also understood why Edelweiss could become the strongest swordsman in the world. “When this is over, do you want to talk over the tea? You might not know, but I am good at baking.”
“Baking…” Edelweiss was surprised. “What kind?”
“Japanese one. You have never tasted it, right?”
“To be truthful, I am also good at baking. Let’s talk about that later after we finish this.”
“That’s true. Let’s talk after this.” Tsukasa greed.
“……..” Arisuin was in a daze.
Edelweiss then glanced at Arisuin and said, “Don’t you dare to say a single word that you have heard her, or else…”
Arisuin shook his head while closing his ears without hesitation.
“…Tsundere?”
“NO!!!”
“I was joking.” Tsukasa smiled and said, “Then, should we start now?”
“Okay.” Edelweiss puffed her cheeks slightly, feeling annoyed.
“…….” Arisuin wanted to say something, but he decided to shut his mouth at that moment.
The two tapped the ground at the same time before suddenly appearing in front of each other, slashing their swords at the same time!
