Start By Becoming A Mangaka

Yuuki wore his armor while listening to Ayako's explanation about jousting.

"Yuuki, you need to remember that the match of jousting is being decided by 3 full points." Ayako started her explanation.

Yuuki nodded, "That means, there are 3 partial points every 1 full point?"

Ayako nodded, "That's right, how do you know?"

"Well, I know some general ideas about it," Yuuki said.

"I'll explain next there are many ways to score a point from your opponent and each one has different points," Yuuki nodded, "If you hit the body and arms or your opponent you'll get 2 partial points."

Yuuki didn't say anything and kept listening, "If you destroy the lance or make them fall from their horse you'll get one full point. Lastly, if you hit the feather in the head of your opponent, you'll instantly win against him."

Yuuki nodded and understood the rules of this sport. He took his lance and tried to practice it for a while. It was his first time holding a lance. The total length of this lance was Total be 10 ft. Even though it was quite long but very light.

Yuuki thrust his lance several times, he felt quite comfortable with it.

"Are you sure you can win?" Akane asked him worriedly.

"Hmm, I'm not sure," Yuuki didn't want to give her false promise.

"Then, why are you asking him for a duel?" Akane didn't understand him.

Yuuki smiled, "isn't it because of you?" He wanted to flirt with her until someone pulled his ears.

"Let's go, your match will begin!" Ayako pulled his ears and brought him to the arena.

"Ah! It hurts Ayako-chan, please be gentle!" Yuuki tried to act as pitiful as possible.

Ayako snorted and kept pulling his ears.

Akane was still there and blushed, and she didn't expect someone to flirt with her, after all, a lot of people said she was a tomboy and wasn't a girl at all.

'No! I don't have time to think about it, I need to watch his duel!' Akane, though, ran toward the arena.

Yuuki had realized the girl in front of him was Akane Ryuuzouji. She was one of the heroines in the 'Walkure Romanze'. She was the epitome of Yamato Nadeshiko and he had some interest with her but he needed to finish his duel first.

Yuuki was in the arena and he saw Mr. Runner up there with his smug expression.

"Hoo, I've got to praise you for not running away," he snickered.

"Don't say nonsense, let's just begin the match, you're like a sissy talking so much," Yuuki mocked.

"Grrr, let's go! Let's start the match!!" He walked toward the arena and rode his horse.

Yuuki walked toward his horse and rode it too.

"Do you have a plan to beat him?" Ayako asked.

"Hmm, let's test the water first, I don't know how strong he is," Yuuki said.

Ayako nodded at him, Akane walked toward him and told him.

"Be careful, he is very skilled at making someone fall into their horse," Yuuki nodded in response.

Yuuki rode his horse to the arena, and he looked at Mr. Runner up who was in his horse on the other side of the arena. He could see that he had an annoyed expression even if they were far too apart.

"Well, let's start," Yuuki was excited to fight against him.

The judge was an employee from this arena. He was very excited to see a duel of jousting between the two men. He pressed the button so the match would start.

"HAAA!" 2x The man and Yuuki said at the same time. The horses started to run, and the battle between the two knights was about to begin.

Yuuki raised his lance and was ready to thrust it. He was waiting for Mr. Runner up to get closer so he would be able to attack him.

Yuuki saw the man target his head until he moved his lance to his body.

'Feint!' Yuuki hurriedly used his lance to meet Mr. Runner up. Two lances were met and destroyed because of the impact.

"Tch!" Yuuki could hear the man feel annoyed that he could see his attack.

'It's not so easy to score from me,' Yuuki snorted.

Yuuki came back to his side and was greeted by Ayako and Akane.

"Wow, that's great, Yuuki," Ayako praised.

"Yeah, you can see his attack! It's an incredible feat!" Akane was amazed.

Yuuki nodded at them, "Don't worry, I've got the general idea about his ability," Jousting was quite simple especially when the one who did it was a normal human. He didn't know whether there were supernatural people around him but to beat the man in front of him. He didn't need to let him sweat it out.

'I'll decide it in this round,' Yuuki though.

Both Yuuki and Mr. Runner-up were ready on their own side. They were waiting for the judge to start their match.

The judge pressed the bell and the match began.

Yuuki rode his horse fast to meet Mr. Runner up in front of him. He raised his lance to attack his stomach.

The man noticed his movement and changed his lance to meet him but he was surprised when Yuuki thrust his lance to the feather of his head. He knew that he couldn't stop him so he decided to push Yuuki down from his horse.

Yuuki saw Mr. Runner up's lace was about to evade his stomach, evaded it and thrust his lance into the feather on his head.

"ICHIJOU YUUKI IS THE WINNER !"

The judge announced the match and made both Ayako and Akane very happy.

Yuuki sighed in relief that the attack almost hit him. He had the Arc of Embodiment, but his combat ability was too low. He didn't have any experience in battle. He was hoping that he would get a battle experience with someone later.
