Correcting the Powerful Force of Plot Armor

Muneyoshi was extremely anxious; familiar with the plot, he had been trying to avoid this situation since the beginning of the morning.

I'm terrified that the same thing will happen again.

Despite all precautions, Byōdōin still managed to slip out...

This made Muneyoshi realize the power of the plot correction.

However, he won't give up easily until he sees it with his own eyes; such a scenario shouldn't happen again.

Therefore, Muneyoshi rushed out of the stadium without looking back, and the glaring sunlight made him unconsciously squint.

Muneyoshi walked anxiously through the streets of Paris, recalling scenes from the story in his mind, hoping to find familiar correspondences so he could spot Byōdōin's figure.

Suddenly, at a corner, Muneyoshi bumped into a burly man shoulder to shoulder.

"Je suis désolé."

Feeling the other person's rock-solid muscles, Muneyoshi didn't even raise his head, but politely apologized in French.

"Peu importe."

A calm and gentle voice came from beside him, which made Muneyoshi pause in surprise.

He looked up, and a familiar round face, with a simple and honest smile, was facing him.

"Duke, he's here, doesn't that mean..."

Muneyoshi raised an eyebrow, then showed a moment of surprise before instantly calming down.

It's Duke! So, is he going to see his sister now, or has the game already ended and is he getting ready to go back to the court?

To confirm his suspicions, Muneyoshi decided to ask.

Just as he was pondering how to use his limited vocabulary, Duke smiled:

"Judging from your outfit, you're a Japan contestant, right? You can speak Japan."

"Hello, Duke -senpai. I'm Saeki Muneyoshi from Japan. Sorry for bumping into you just now."

"It's nothing. I was just looking for my sister Chloe and wasn't watching where I was going."

Upon hearing this, Muneyoshi was overjoyed. Duke was looking for his sister, which meant that Byōdōin was still safe.

"I see, Senior Duke. I'm also looking for our leader. Well then, I won't bother you any longer!"

"Okay, goodbye!"

Duke nodded very amicably to Muneyoshi, then walked off in another direction.

After the other person had walked a certain distance away, Muneyoshi would sneak up and follow them.

Paris is so big, how could you possibly find one person? But by following Duke, his sister will naturally find the Byōdōin.

A short while later, Duke found his sister on the banks of the Seine, a beautiful blonde girl with a petite figure.

The significant height difference between the two attracted the attention of many people on the street.

Muneyoshi followed at a distance, and could hear their intermittent conversation.

"Japan, isn't Japan my mother's hometown?"

"They must be very strong, right?"

"Hahaha! Chloe, no one can defeat me!"

Duke laughed loudly, raising his arm to reveal Xiong Jian's muscular physique.

"But... brother, this magazine says..."

"There's a guy in Japan named Byōdōin Hōō. He's really powerful, and he hasn't made a move yet, so we don't know what he's up his sleeve!"

Chloe opened her eyes wide and pointed very seriously at the magazine in her hand.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Don't worry, Chloe, that guy is no match for the France Team!"

"He too will be completely destroyed by his brother's tennis!"

Although Duke may seem simple-minded, he wouldn't lose face in front of his dearest sister, and he smiled nonchalantly.

"Yes, brother is the best!"

"I'm going to cast a spell on my brother so he can win today's match!"

Chloe excitedly bypassed Duke and ran up to him.

"OK!"

Duke happily crouched down so Chloe could reach his face.

Chloe muttered something to herself as her fingers traced lines across Duke's face.

"With Chloe's magic, brother will definitely win today!"

Duke affectionately patted his sister's head.

"Ah~ Look!"

"There's a convenience store over there! Chloe's going to buy her brother ice cream!"

Chloe spotted a shop and excitedly crossed the street.

"Chloe! Don't run! Watch out for the cars, walk slowly!"

Duke immediately gave chase, calling out to his sister as he went.

At that moment, Muneyoshi also spotted that familiar figure inside the store...

"They're here!"

Muneyoshi looked somewhat anxious and ran towards the other side.

Byōdōin glanced at the cute little girl who had just entered the shop, but only for a fleeting look. He didn't pay her much attention and got up to leave.

Suddenly...

Click!

Click!

Suddenly, as Byōdōin was about to leave, he heard a chilling sound coming from above, as if something had fallen!

Because of renovations at a neighboring shop, a corner of the convenience store's roof suddenly collapsed.

"Boom..."

On the other side of the street, Muneyoshi and Duke's expressions changed. They could see more clearly now, above Byōdōin and Chloe's heads!

The tiles, carrying rubble and wooden stakes, were about to cover the beautiful and lovely little girl in no time.

"Chloe! Danger! Get out of there immediately!"

Duke called out anxiously to his sister!

"Byōdōin, watch out!!"

Two anxious voices reached Byōdōin's ears.

Chloe was terrified by the falling debris, and her body almost wouldn't obey her commands.

Without the Byōdōin hesitation, Chloe lunged at Chloe, trying to shield Chloe with his own body.

"Falling Brightness!!!"

In the blink of an eye, a dense darkness erupted from Muneyoshi's body. Gathering all his strength, Muneyoshi unleashed the Falling Light towards Byōdōin's head!

A black light tore through the air, hurtling in from across the road.

Boom!

Three tennis balls streaked through the air, their terrifying force precisely smashing away the most dangerous part of the collapsed structure, but some still crashed into Byōdōin.

Instead of the expected impact to his head and excruciating pain, Byōdōin keenly heard the sound of a black light whistling through the air.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way now!"

At this moment, Duke also arrived, his previously fierce expression now filled with fear.

Duke pushed through the crowd, rushed to the pile of rubble, and began to clear away the broken tiles.

He hurriedly shoved the tangled tiles off Byōdōin's body, and only when he saw that his sister was safe and sound under Byōdōin's protection did the burly man Matsushita a little.

Byōdōin's body completely pinned Chloe down, but Chloe was unharmed.

On Byōdōin's back, beneath his tattered clothes, lay a blood-soaked wound.

"It doesn't seem too serious..."

Byōdōin struggled to his feet. He felt relieved to find that his head was unharmed and he was still conscious, but the pain in his back made him frown.

"Chloe!!"

Duke hugged his sister tightly; the near-death experience had almost brought this tough guy to tears.

"Elder brother!"

Chloe was also somewhat frightened and seemed a little shaken, but she quickly looked at Byōdōin, who was shielding her beneath him.

"Thank you, thank you so much, thank you so much for saving my sister, I... I don't know how to thank you enough!"

Seeing that his sister was unharmed, Duke quickly brought Chloe to Byōdōin's side and kept thanking Byōdōin, his voice trembling with emotion.

"You... you are... Byōdōin from the Japan Team?"

At that moment, Duke also got a clear look at the uniform that Byōdōin was wearing.

"Senior, are you alright?"

At this moment, Muneyoshi also came over. He breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw that Byōdōin's face was not bleeding, but he became nervous again when he saw that his clothes were soaked with blood.

"Come on, senior, let's get you to the hospital first!"

Muneyoshi didn't give Byōdōin a chance to refuse, forcibly helping Byōdōin into a taxi to go to the hospital for treatment.

Duke stood by the roadside, watching the two people walk away, his heart filled with unease.
