I just don't get it!

　Stanville, as the eldest son, represented the occasion.

'I'm an old friend of Gacita's!　When we were kids, we would run and play in the fields together, play pranks together and get scolded by the off-crooks and hung up in a tree, and steal treats together and get scolded by the off-crooks and buried in the dirt with only our heads out!

　You had a hell of a childhood, huh?

"Ugh, my sealed up memories are coming back...!

　Gacita was shivering with a chill.

'That's why I know everything about Gacita!　There's no way Gacita can pass an A-level exam that easily!

　He's very determined.

"I don't think Gacita is blessed with much talent as an adventurer!　I know this because I've been out in the city and seen all sorts of other adventurers!　And if I'd been holed up in the countryside like this, I wouldn't have encountered the big quest to improve myself!
"If that a**h*le got to Grade A, then I guess it's because of the favoritism of my brother-in-law, Dariel!
"Please do us both a favor!

　I'm not sure what to expect.
　You can't get away with it, you know.

You're going to have to do a lot of disrespecting...

　I silently send eye contact to Granberza-sama.
　He nods back deeply.

'It would be an important exercise to have real-life experience of the levels above you. And moreover, how much difference the same generation of old familiarity has made in the paths they've walked.......

　Lady Granberza had a nasty expression on her face.
　I probably have that look on my face too. I don't have a mirror, so I can't check.

That's just how it is," he said. Show these people what you're made of.
'What?　I have to go on a quest to collect medicinal herbs now.

　Even though you're on the verge of making A-level, you're still taking on those low-level quests?
　It seems to be to keep in mind your original intentions, but that's seriously admirable.

I'm sure that if you were at Gacita's age, you'd be able to call yourself an experienced adventurer. And yet you're still collecting herbs...?
''If you can only do quests like that, then big brother Gacita's A-class is a signboard failure after all.......!
''We're going to win over big brother Gacita in a brilliant way and show that Atta and the others are the more useful pawns!

　And then there are the less respectable ones.

◆.

　In the meantime, the match between Gashita and the three siblings was held.

　Everyone has a weapon in their hands and is ready to fight.

　Stanville, the eldest, is a hammer.
　The second son, Rybeke, uses a shield.
　The youngest son, Salika, has a double sword, and his appearance has not changed since the time of the examination for promotion to the A class.

　They hadn't yet signaled the start of the match, but they couldn't wait for it to begin, and looked as if they were about to pounce on it at any moment.

'One against three?'

　It's another unfair contrast.
　But since Gacita, the person who is fighting him, has given his consent, there's nothing I can do about it.

I know what your intentions are. I know what your intentions are, and I'll do my best to reflect them fully.

　He said.

　Such a weapon that Gashita took out was a single arrow.

''Heh?''

　Gacita, who has an aptitude for the sting aura, fights with a bow and arrow.
　That hasn't changed in the past, but this time, it's just arrows and no bow.

''Why?''

　Bows and arrows are a complete set of weapons, right?
　How can they fly an arrow without a bow?

'You said you'd like to see your brother's will reflected.　To show how strong I've become under my brother's tutelage, today I'm going to beat Mr. Stanville and the others with just this one arrow.
"What?!

　My opponent reacts to this by raising his voice.
　Did he take it as a challenge?

''Gashta!　You've grown so high and mighty in the time we've been away!　You only need one arrow to defeat us!　You've been underestimated!
"We've done the same thing on Rayhanton Street as we did on our way to becoming B-list adventurers!　"You'll get hurt if you're not careful!
What's a single arrow anyway?　What good are arrows if you don't have dozens of them?

　The accusations are roaring.
　Now, if Gacita is really following my intentions, she should be able to win by an overwhelming margin, despite being at an overwhelming disadvantage.
　If it's Gacita, who has adored me for the past few years.......

I've been studying Dariel's aniki even when he was away. I've been researching my signature stinging aura...
''U........?''

　Gacita's aura is transferred to the arrow.
　There is not even a bow to release, just a single arrow.

　How is that one arrow going to cross the three elite people?

'I understand. The aura strengthens any movement of events. So if you put an aura with a certain strength into an arrow........ With some ingenuity.........

　With the power of the aura, the arrows........

'They fly as vigorously as if flung by a bow.

　An arrow that flies out of Gacita's hand.
　The speed of the arrow is like a lightning bolt.
　It's exactly the same as flying with an arrow, or even faster than that.

It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on it.

　The destination of the arrow is firstly the youngest of the three siblings, Saleeka.
　Normally, Maleeka would be the second girl who would join her to become the fourth sibling.

　It's a good thing that you have an aptitude for slash aura, and as an immediate choice for an acquisition, the twin swords are quite a threat.
　The aura has increased their cutting power, making them a weapon that can be handled with one hand.
　Thanks to this, even if you use two swords, there is no disadvantage in increasing your hands.

　The busy nature of this is something I also experienced during the A-class promotion exam.

　The twin swords of Saleeka flick the approaching arrows at the very last second.

''Ufuhi?　That was close....?

　It seems that you were able to react just barely.
　But even if you were able to deal with it at the last minute, you were successful.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.
　How does Gashita proceed from there to the battle?

Of course I'll only use that one arrow.

　That one arrow was blocked and there was no pretense of being upset.

''That arrow is still alive, you know. The stinging aura has a characteristic that makes it suitable for strengthening projectiles. Not only does it compensate for the power and speed, it also compensates for the precision of your aim. What do you think will happen if we get to the point where we get to those things?

　The arrow that was shot out spun around in the air.
　It would lose the orientation from which it was shot out, and all that was left was to fall down, attracted by gravity.
　Once it touches the ground, that arrow's activity will stop.

　And before that, in the air........

　........regained its momentum and flew off again!

''Haha!''

　It was the targeted Salika who was surprised.
　The arrows that I had flicked off once, are coming at me again.
　I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this.

''Uhiwaaah!

　I succeeded in dropping it off again with the twin swords.
　It's a good thing you were able to make it in time, even though it was a bit of a surprise at close range, right?

　That was also because they were at a reasonable level of strength........

　But it still wasn't the end.

　Even if it was flicked again, the arrow regained its momentum in the air and flew again.
　It flew relentlessly at its target, Sareeka.

'Gyaaahhhh!　You are persistent!

　Sareeka's twin swords are effective, and the number of hands increased by relying on the sharpness of the slash (slash) aura is well followed by a series of arrow strikes.

　But.........what is this phenomenon itself?
　I think it's time for an explanation, don't you?

It's an aura effect.

　Gacita explained.
　I knew it was going to happen?

The extreme precision of the stinging aura has made it possible to control the trajectory of the projectile at any time via the aura. In layman's terms, I can manipulate arrows from a distance, at will.

　That seems to be the case.
　So that's why Gacita remotely controls the arrow each time it's played or not, and releases it at Sareeka's eyes?

''Gyaaaaah!　It doesn't end!　Infinite loop ughhhh?

　It will fly no matter how it's played. It will fly.
　The repetition of this process caused Saleeka to scream.

"Does that thing last forever?
No way. It's only until the aura in the arrow runs out. We can repeat that exchange 1,000 times.

　The amount of basic aura in Gacita's foundation aura was a stark contrast.

　Even though Sareeka's twin swords boasted a number of hands, there was no way she could surpass the arrows that were permanently attacking her forever.
　She lost her concentration and easily missed the motion of flicking them off.

''Ah!''

　By the time she thought she had failed, it was too late.
　The arrow that escaped the twin swords' defense stopped just before it pierced Salika's throat flute.
　It was stopped in mid-air.

　Gashita, who says she can control the arrows that flew through her aura.
　Of course he could stop it, too.

　And if Gacita hadn't intended to stop it, the arrow would certainly have pierced Sareeka's throat.
　Therefore..........

''Sareeka dead.''

　and disqualified them from participating in the mock battle.
