The dark-haired magical girl found this development funny, but at the very least it meant that she would have plenty of snacks to replenish her energy after winning this small tournament of theirs. After all, as long as her partner didn’t slip on her own ice, there was no way they would lose.

Talking about the devil. [color=cd2440]"Geez, if I didn’t know you, I would think that you are giving me the cold shoulder, you know?"[/color] she quipped before flashing a sharp grin. Black Shot slung her spear over shoulder and added. [color=cd2440]"I would personally like to fight on a place that’s less open than a lake, but at least I can blame you if we lose."[/color]

Just as Black Shot expected, the [url=https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/2579268]lakeside area[/url] was pretty open, save for a few trees that had already lost their leaves to the inexorable march of the seasons, some benches, lampposts, and of course the lake itself, the place was rather desert.

Taking advantage of the fact that they were the first to arrive, Black Shot found a perch over one of the lampposts, shooing a crow that was occupying it before her. After claiming the high ground, all she had to do is wait until their prey came to them.
