===Part 9=== In the final three-legged race, Haruaki and Shiraho had to run back to the starting line. Although the contestants were surging out almost simultaneously, a few couples could be seen running already. Speeding up was imperative. The staff used a string to tie Haruaki's foot with Shiraho's mascot costume-clad foot. "Hurry, do it faster!" Shiraho had already given up on maintaining her image, only grumbling and picking on the staff nonstop. Just at this time, something silver entered Haruaki's view. It happened that Fear and Konoha had finished the clothes-changing challenge and arrived to start the race at the same time. Playing the girlfriend's part, Konoha was dressed in a striped tiger mascot costume, quite a refreshing sight as well. Likewise waiting for the park staff to tie her foot, Fear was gnashing her teeth while glaring at Haruaki. "Tsk! ...If it weren't for Cow Tits' udders, we'd be running already by now! Jeez, that useless volume only gets stuck in the mascot costume and is only good for preventing a quick change of clothes!" "I-I can't help it either! If only the organizers prepared a looser fitting size from the start..." Upon closer examination, Haruaki did not know if it was psychological or not, but it felt like the chest portion of Konoha's striped mascot costume was stretched especially tight. In order to stuff the volume there into the costume, the two girls must have gone through a tough battle beyond Haruaki's imagination. "Oh dear... A tiger. In terms of the twelve animals from the Chinese zodiac, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the tiger is a relic of the past. Hope should be entrusted to a rabbit like me this year.<ref>According to the sequence in the Chinese zodiac, the Year of the Tiger is followed by the Year of the Rabbit.[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_zodiac]</ref> Don't force yourself to run. Why don't you turn brown just like a New Year's greeting card from last year, forgotten in a cupboard and covered by a layer of dust?" Shiraho, Konoha and Fear's belligerent gazes clashed in midair. This late in the game, was there any method to make them reach an understanding? Was there any method to resolve things peacefully—? Of course— It was impossible. "Let's go, human! First start with the tied foot! Ready—!" "Don't drag me down, Cow Tits!" "This is very uncreative as a retort, but I have to say this—You took the words right out of my mouth!" "Ready, go!" Just as the staff lifted their hands, Haruaki and Shiraho started running together. Starting with the right foot that was tied, one, two, one, two. Then gradually speeding up, they began to run with long strides. Shiraho was probably not too athletic. Haruaki was originally a little worried, but probably fueled by her love for Sovereignty, she was currently running quite well. The two of them passed a pair of contestants, one of them wearing a dog mascot costume. Haruaki and Shiraho's speed was not bad. At this rate—Just as Haruaki was thinking that... "Ahaha! Easy peasy! Although there's a problem, namely that dark creature, which should be named the evil pudding, bouncing and pressing on my head, making me feel so disgusted. But as long as I have this kind of athletic reflexes, a three-legged race is easy as pie!" "I hope you don't get the wrong idea, but I am the one who is accommodating you! Don't talk as though you are the only one putting in effort!" "Shut up, evil pudding! I'm the one who's suffering here! I'm currently closing my heart away with strong willpower, but if I lower my guard for a second, the ladylike boobs energy with the attribute of light, slumbering inside me, might suddenly rumble in action, compelling me to defeat the enemy! Like! This!" "Hold on, I can't believe you're jumping to perform a headbutt while running a three-legged race, that's truly... dexterous... Mmm! Listen, Fear-san, please run seriously!" Haruaki could see Fear and Konoha arguing noisily while passing his team. Then the two girls proceeded to pass a cat mascot couple, followed by a frog mascot couple—As expected of superhuman physical capabilities, their speed was leaving everyone behind. Also for some unknown reason, the two of them were quite cooperative at the moment, making their way towards the same goal together. Haruaki had to concede that they were currently the greatest foes in the way of victory. Since everyone's score was basically the same, the winner of the triathlon was going to become the champion directly. Losing was absolutely unacceptable. However— (Calm down a bit...!) Haruaki realized that this was the only countermeasure. In terms of power, he and Shiraho could not possibly prevail over Fear and Konoha. But considering openings that could be exploited, this three-legged race was not simply a contest of speed. Although Fear and Konoha were cooperating miraculously for once, they could not possibly maintain this indefinitely given their long-held incompatibility. A rupture was definitely going to appear again along the way. All Haruaki's team could do was endure and endure some more, not letting the momentary opportunity slip past— That was what Haruaki understood. However... His partner, the partner who simply sought victory greedily for the sake of love, she did not understand. "This is terrible! Don't think that you two will get your way... We're speeding up!" "Hold on, Shiraho, don't push yourself too far! Don't panic, because it's us who will fall into a crisis if we panic—!" However, Haruaki's advice did not work. Shiraho sped up all at once. Haruaki desperately tried to keep up but there were limits after all— "Kya, ahhh!?" "Gah!" The two of them tripped and became entangled. The feeling of grass underfoot disappeared—Then they hit the ground. They hit the ground heavily. Haruaki felt an impact on his shoulder. Then the fragrance of fresh grass entered his nostrils. Shiraho frantically sat up, staring wide-eyed in shock, looking ahead. Looking at Fear and Konoha's backs, gradually getting farther and farther away. Looking at the backs of the enemies who must be defeated in order for her to reconcile with Sovereignty. "A-Ahhhhh...!" What Haruaki heard was a scream of utter grief, as though Shiraho had witnessed the end of the world. Struggling, she extended her arm forward, refusing to give up. Seeking what was absolutely beyond reach and could not possibly be reached, she desperately extended her arm. "No. I—don't want this... Sovereignty...!" Within Haruaki's field of vision, all movements slowed down. It was as though time was being stretched. The world became static, shrouded in despair and regret. But in the next instant, this unusual feeling was immediately forgotten. Because, for some unknown reason— Unbelievably, Haruaki found his body sliding forward at high speed even though he was still lying on the ground.
