T/N: Props for all those who spotted mistakes: EUNI2319
Madara: Getting back on track! Kanzaki-san, did you call me a "slasher" earlier?
Madara: Hmm, is that what you think I am? I guess I'm in trouble......?
Shinobu: "Slasher"......? It sounds like something from a historical play-de gozaru, when did such an event happen at Yumenosaki Academy? Wooow, my heart's beating fast~ ♪
Madara: Hahaha! Even though I'm still carrying you, you're so lively, Sengoku-san! Such unexpected adaptability!
Madara: Chiaki-san sure picked up a rather promising young kid as an ally...... ♪
Madara: It's not the strong or wise that can survive any time period, but those who can adapt! Your future looks promising, good, good ♪
Shinobu: W-Woah, please don't mess up my hair-de gozaru~!
Souma: Don't casually touch Sengoku, you cretin! Who are you?! What's your goal! I don't get you at all!
Madara: Hahaha! You have a simple way of speaking, Kanzaki-san! You're able to easily express any event like a simple numerical formula!
Madara: Detours happen when you think too much, or so I like to think!
Madara: Of course, it's when you take detours that you stumble upon lovely flowers! What a mixed blessing this stimulating, transient world is, but that's why it's so interesting...... ☆
Madara: Anyway! I was looking for members who would join me in the "Wisteria Festival"!
Madara: I was away from Yumenosaki Academy for quite a while, so I don't know anything about the new students?
Madara: That's why I wanted to talk to the first kid I meet and challenge them to a match!
Madara: I guess because I kept repeating that, I eventually started getting called a "slasher"?
Madara: Or is it perhaps because I took some appropriate spoils of war from the kids that lost?
Madara: I was going to return those later, really ♪
Madara: It's not a manga after all, I can't determine their true ability from fighting them just once!
Madara: They do say boys grow quickly in the seven days that you don't meet them! They could use the humiliation from defeat as a spring to make them stronger!
Madara: In order to create an opportunity for a "rematch", I take something of theirs after the showdown!
Madara: I guess that created a lot of problems, it is something similar to theft?
Madara: But I felt that if I didn't do that, nobody would come at me seriously?
Madara: While I was busy all around the country, everyone seems to have lost motivation, you see?
Souma: Hmmm......? Picking fights indiscriminately and taking spoils of war if you won, you say? Are you pretending to be Musashibou Benkei*? Even for anachronism*, that's taking it too far!
*T/N: "Musashibou Benkei" was a Japanese warrior monk who would stand at a bridge and challenge every swordman that passed. He would take the swords of every swordsman he defeated.
*T/N: "Anachronism" is when something seems to be in the wrong time period. Either too antiquated or too modern.
Madara: Hahaha! You get the gist of it, I'm looking for a fateful encounter!
Madara: The "Wisteria Festival" theme is based on the Dannoura battle, so calling me "Musashibou" is perfect! Splendid, wonderful ♪
Madara: Mmmm, seems that you're not a total blockhead? You're making a rather lovely expression...... ♪
Madara: I've decided! Kanzaki-san, won't you fight with me ♪
Souma: ......I certainly don't mind. It'll be a serious fight, so it's your loss if your head flies off.
Madara: Nah, I'd like to avoid that...... after all, it's the precious head that parents gave me.
Madara: More like. Cutting down an unarmed person, has the Kanzaki clan fallen so far?
Souma: Huh? You know about the Kanzaki clan......?
Madara: Yup. I'm surprisingly knowledgeable on a lot of things. I even heard that there was a strange seed from the famous Kanzaki house that wanted to become an idol.
Madara: Ha-ha~, so you're Kanzaki Souma-san, huh ♪
Madara: It's hilarious! It's a honor to meet you, you know, I'm thankful for all meetings! Hahaha ♪
Souma: Don't randomly laugh, it's irritating!
Madara: Now, now....... Calm down, don't get angry, and rest, breath in ♪ A smiling face translates into every language, you know, and staying gloomily quiet only leads to another World War!
Madara: Anyway, Kanzaki-san! I have an important job coming up soon, so I don't want to get hurt. Let's stop with the cutting!
Madara: So, why don't we compete with spinning tops?
Souma: What? Spinning tops?
Madara: Yeah! You're good at it...... or so I heard ♪
Madara: Furthermore! I actually happen to have two spinning tops that we can use! Pick whichever one you like, red or white, which do you prefer?
Souma: Hmph. Challenging me, it seems that you're confident in your skills.
Souma: Rather, you're strangely well-prepared for this...... did you already expect that our confrontation would happen this way?
Madara: Hahaha! It's just coincidence, but...... you're free to think whatever you want, Kanzaki-san ♪
Madara: Well? Are you up for it or not?
Souma: Mmm, backing down from a challenge will bring me embarrassment for the rest of my life. So yes, I accept.
Souma: There's value in the victory of completely crushing my opponent at their own game.
Souma: I'll take you up on that spinning top match.
Shinobu: Umm~. I want to say that things have taken a strange turn because nobody's interjecting, but I kind of feel a little left out-de gozaru~
Madara: Maybe so! But don't you think that's why it's exciting?*
*T/N: Little convoluted, but Madara's saying that the strange turn the conversation has taken is exciting. And that the reason for the strange turn is because nobody's there to argue logically.
Madara: Don't worry, I won't leave you behind! Sengoku-san, let's battle afterwards ♪
Madara: What do you think about target shooting? I'll be using darts, but you can use whatever you're good at...... like shuriken* ♪
*T/N: "Shuriken" are metal ninja stars. You can Google the image or just watch Naruto.
Shinobu: Eh, I can battle too? Target shooting with shuriken, huh~, kind of like the target game at a festival, sounds fun ♪
Madara: Hahaha! Everything's better when it's fun! It's a festival, a partyyyyyy....... ☆
Souma: My condolences, but Sengoku won't get a turn. This Kanzaki Souma will slay the devilish "slayer".
Souma: Now, let's have a fair battle......!
Shinobu: Umm~? Like I said earlier, I don't get what's going on-de gozaru~? W-Why did it turn out this way......?
