Sisters’ Battle 3

While checking the condition of her magnet boots, Diaroze raised her fists up. Her surprise attack failed. She managed to get a tackle in but Valentina is taking a fighting pose with a calm expression as though she did not receive any damage at all.

Diaroze is quite tall herself but Valentina is even taller than her. There’s also the weight difference. Without weapons, this would create a big disadvantage for her. She started thinking of a way to come out on top of this fight but even with her clear mind, she couldn’t come up with a good way to beat her little sister. Still, with Kisei behind her, yielding is not an option.

“What’s wrong, Aneue? Are you really all talk?”

Perhaps convinced of her victory, Valentina mockingly provoked Diaroze.

“Being robbed feels good but robbing might not be that bad either. And I’m in the mood of trying that out right now.”

Valentina glanced at Kisei with lustful eyes. His mouth was shut tight and he took a step back. It’s pathetic but it’s true that he can do nothing to support Diaroze with his physique. The least he can do is to not burden her.

“A blatant provocation huh.”

Even with her nose bleeding, Diaroze gave Valentina a contemptuous grin. If she just angrily charges in then she will easily be beaten back. That’s why she decided to take a careful approach.

“Are you so afraid of your big sister that you have to resort to cheap provocation? You are bigger than me but you are howling like a sore loser you know. I guess Mother was correct when she placed you dead last in the line of succession.”

“What……!”

In an instant, Valentina’s calm expression vanished. She has prided herself as a warrior and a commander. Even so, she still has a complex about the fact that she was left out of the succession war.

She had been acting like it didn’t interest her but now that she has the chance to take the throne, she’s clinging to it. Diaroze evaluated her as much.

“Since you are trying to take Master with you with such an underhanded means, you must have some awareness of it yourself, right? If you truly are suitable for the throne, let alone Master and I, you should have been able to persuade the generals to your side with your words alone.”

Diarzoe grinned. In reality, her nose hurt like hell but she can not allow Valentina to see her weakness right now.

“You can’t even prepare a legitimate justification to take the throne and you lack the charisma to convince those around you that you are worthy of it. You are well aware of your shortcomings, that’s why you chose to do it this way, no?”

“D, Don’t talk nonsense……..! And stop with your insults…….!

Gritting her teeth, Valentina growled. She looks genuinely furious. She has a beautiful face and a good physique so when her expression turned wrathful, the pressure she’s emanating is nothing to scoff at.

“Oh, sorry, sorry. I must have hit the bull’s eye huh? True, it’s not ladylike to add salt to injury even by stating the facts. Forgive me, little sister.”

“You’re wrong, I’m……!”

“Wrong? You are angry now because I said something that you are already self-aware of right. If I was just talking nonsense then you would have laughed it off………”

“E, E, Even if it’s from my own older sister, there are things that you are allowed and not allowed to say! If you continue insulting me any more than this then don’t say that I didn’t warn you okay!”

“See, Master? She knew she couldn’t win with her words so she’s resorting to violence. Don’t you understand that you are just admitting to everyone here that you are that kind of woman? KuHahahaha……!”

Seeing Diaroze laughing at her, Valentina’s reddish complexion turned even darker. Her fists are clenched tight and her legs are trembling.

“You will regret this…….!”

Certainly, Valentina didn’t think that she would be able to win against her sister with her words alone. That’s why she has no other option but to choose violence. She kicked off the floor and leaped at Diaroze.

“Hmph……..”

Diaroze coldly looked at Valentina who was rapidly rushing at her. Her provocation tactic worked out. However, that alone won’t be enough.

“UOOOOOH!!”

Diaroze managed to dodge the fist Valentina threw at her. At the same time, she slipped close to her and grabbed the collar of her pilot suit.

“HAH!”

Even with the weight difference, the zero gravity enabled her to easily throw Valentina whose magnetic boots are no longer attached to the floor. Moreover, with blood rushing to Valentina’s head, she couldn’t even put up a proper resistance. With the momentum of her lunge, she was slammed to the wall.

“UWahh!”

The back of her head hit the wall and she was out cold for a moment. Diaroze did not miss that chance. She planted her magnetic boots on the floor and threw a fist at Valentina with all her might.

“Guh!”

Diaroze is over 180cm tall with a well-built physique. Her full-power punch dug into Valentina’s stomach. Moreover, with her back against the wall, the impact had nowhere to escape so even Valentina felt that punch.

“This is the end!”

Diaroze tries to land a second punch but Valentina manages to kick the wall and pounce on her. Diaroze, who was in the punching motion, couldn’t avoid that blow.

“Ugh……!?”

Just like that, Valentina coiled her body around her sister’s and wrapped her arm around her neck while holding down her wrists. This judo-style submission technique restricted Diaroze’s joints and choked her at the same time. In zero gravity, such techniques that require the user to be on the floor can be used even while she’s standing.

“Guh!?”

Diaroze, who had no martial arts training had no means to escape from this hold. She’s resisting but since her artery was constricted, she wouldn’t last long. Soon, she passed out from the lack of oxygen.

“……..!”

After making sure that her sister is completely out of commission, Valentina released her arms. But she can’t perform any sudden moves now due to the damage she received. While holding her stomach and mouth, she clenched her teeth. She’s feeling nauseous. However, if she vomited now, the vomit would be stuck in her mouth and nose and she could choke to death so she has no choice but to suppress the urge.

“Ugh…..!”

Kisei wondered if he should take this chance to run but he can’t afford to abandon Diaroze after she protected him. After all, with her earlier provocation, it wouldn’t be strange if Valentina decided to kill her if he left her alone.

“Uggh…..kugh…….Haa.”

While he was pondering his options, Valentina let go of her mouth and exhaled shallowly. Apparently, her nausea had subsided. And with a forced smile on her pale face, she turned to Kisei.

“…..that’s how it is, you can’t escape me now…….!”

Kisei stiffened at those words.
