And Rode said, "Get ready. I don't know if you'll have a hard time, but this opponent will be tougher than the previous ones."

Gen then said, "I hope so.", and then he went with the employee to the fighting arena.

When they arrived, he and his opponent climbed into the arena, and soon afterward, the same referee, who had been at all of Gen's fights, said, "Are you ready?"

She then said, "Well, in that case, you may begin."

Gen then got into a fighting stance and prepared for his opponent's attack, but unlike what had always happened before, Gen's opponent didn't advance towards him as soon as the fight started.
