Teng teng teng~!
The sound of footsteps got louder.
Jembty crouched at the second-floor stairwell opening, holding his breath to concentrate on the sound of footsteps in front of him!
"Shifu, Shifu, I'm a little afu-raid."
"Don't be afu-raid! Shifu is right behind you."
"But Shifu, why aren't you in front?"
"Um… this is part of your training!"
On the first-floor stairwell opening, the two of them - Misaka Mikoto in front, Liu Zilang at the back - crouched as they silently looked upstairs. However, the corner around the hallway blocked their view.
If the tournament was played in the first-person perspective, the offense would have taken a different course of action. As the field of vision was the same for everyone, Liu Zilang and Misaka Mikoto would have been able to win the fight just by their sheer advantage in numbers.
