Asano Nazuki looked at Shirakawa's smug face, anger bubbling up inside her, wishing she could take a bite out of his annoying face right then and there, and see if he could still smile.
Who's to blame for this? Isn't it that ruthless woman! Using the Sword Dao competition as an excuse to beat me up! If it weren't for my height disadvantage, I should have been the one winning!
Shirakawa Sawahei couldn't fathom that this injury of Asano Nazuki's was actually self-inflicted. In Sword Dao competitions, everyone wears protective gear, so it's practically impossible to hit the head. The real reason was that this little girl, bitter over losing the competition, ended up bonking herself on the forehead with a rebound from her bamboo sword during a fit of impotent rage.
She didn't injure her opponent but ended up injuring herself.
"Um... Asano, your injury..."
"...The injury on my head... was from a sneak attack."
