Chapter 79: Please!!
Emperor is starting!!

Page 2
Mikage: How far does the pervert need to jump in order for Yuuta to lose?
Yoda: With anything more than 86 meters, he'll be out.
Yoda: If Shiriya flies past the K point*--- *90 meters
Even if he loses his form on the landing, he'll win.
Yoda: And Nonomiya will lose his chance to appear at inter high.
Yuuta: ...
Yuuta(thought): He also said the same thing---

Page 3
Makino: For someone like you with no prior achievements,
Without at least winning at inter high, entering All Japan would be impossible.
Makino: If you can't do that, then you won't make it to the Olympics in two and a half years.
Yuuta(thought): If I lose to Emperor now...
Yuuta(thought): Rather than winning at inter high, I won't even be able to go...
Yuuta(thought): If I don't win against him, everything will be over---
Yuuta(thought): Everything---

What a joke...
The head coach is here to watch?
And I can get to All Japan Junior if I win this one?
Those idiots...
Think they can put pressure on me with such obvious lies?
There's no way I'll lose to Amatsu.
And Nonomiya isn't even a worthy opponent.
That---

Page 5
At that moment, Shiriya---
Missed the timing of the step-off by a little bit.
The best time to do so is during the moment the boots pass over the edge of the platform.
With boots of length 30cm and going at 90km/h, that time period lasts only approximately 0.01 seconds.
The best possible jump can only be done when that timing is correct.
It takes a long time for ski jumpers to grasp the exact timing.

Page 6
And Shiriya stepped off at the time he did.
He was not swayed by Amatsu's words.
He merely unconsciously realized something:
How there was something "different from usual".

Page 7
However, he was not agitated by it.
From the very beginning, he had no need to perform a jump that demanded the correct 0.01 seconds.
It is all about "averaging". Many times in the past, he managed to make up for missing the timing with long jumping distance.
He easily jumped over the line that decides the outcome with Nonomiya, and is going toward Amatsu's distance---
But this is where his mistake becomes apparent.
There is no way he can reach Amatsu's distance of 106 meters.
And Shiriya---

Nothing

Page 9
...
No way...

Page 10
Not only past K point, but also HS*... *100 meters
Nonomiya...
Lost...

Page 11
Muramatsu: Hey.
Muramatsu: Didn't he just stagger at the landing?
Muramatsu: Didn't the same thing happen before...
Where the opponent messed up on the landing and lost because of that?
Yoda: No...
Yoda: It's true that Shiriya staggered when he landed...
Yoda: But that mistake would only cover at most a difference of 3-4 meters.
Yoda: This time, the difference is 15 meters.
Unless he fell, there's no way the situation would turn around.
Yoda: Nonomiya's loss is assured.
Yuuta(thought): It's all over...
Yuuta(thought): I couldn't even make it to inter high...

Kishitani: Nonomiya,
Kishitani: We're only first-years.
Kishitani: We still have two more chances...
Yuuta: Then I won't make it to the Olympics in two years!!
Mikage: But...
Mikage: There will be another one four years after that.
Yuuta: No good.
There's no way I can do it six years later.
Mikage: Huh?
Yoda(thought): That's true...
Yoda(thought): Even now, she's becoming more and more like a woman...
Yoda(thought): There's no way she can pass as a man in six years...
Yuuta(thought): Brother, I'm sorry...
Yuuta(thought): I couldn't win the gold medal...
Yuuta(thought): I...Don't want to lie to everyone anymore...
Yuuta: Kourogi.

Page 13
Yuuta: I...told you a huge lie.
Mikage: Huh?
Kishitani(thought): !?
Kishitani(thought): Don't tell me, Nonomiya...
Kishitani: Nonomiya!!
Yoda: Stop!!
Yoda: This is her life.
If she made up her mind, there's nothing we can say.
Kishitani: But...
Yuuta: I'm sorry...
Yuuta: I'm sorry, Kourogi.
Yuuta: About how I've been lying to you all this time...
Mikage: ...Yuuta?
Yuuta: I...
Yuuta: To tell you the truth, I... TN: She's using the feminine/neutral form of "I", which is different from what she's been using.

Crowd: !?
Crowd: Wah!!
Emperor: Fuck!!
Emperor: You've gotta be shitting me!!

Page 15
Emperor: For me to...
Emperor: Make such a mistake...
Emperor: Uooooooooh!!
Crowd: Man!!
Woman: Kyaah!!
Yoda: ...What's going on?
Yoda: Is he that bothered by losing to Amatsu?
Akira: Not to me.
Akira: Did you not see it?
Yoda: Huh?

Page 16
Akira: Shiriya's hand touched the ground when he landed.
Yoda: !?
Yuuta(thought): ...His hand?
Yoda: ...
Yoda: What?
Yoda: Really!?
Akira: Yeah, without a doubt.
Mikage: Wh...what does it mean!?
Yoda: It's a big deal...
Yoda: If the hands touch the ground at landing, there is a big point deduction!!

Page 17
Mikage: How much!?
Yoda: Don't know!!
Yoda: It depends on the judges!!
Yoda: Whether or not they saw how Shiriya's hand touched the ground...
Yoda: Any of them could win at this rate!!
Kishitani: The scores are gone from the board!!
Kishitani: They're going to display the standings...
Yuuta(thought): Please... Please... Please...

Yuuta(thought): Please!!
Kishitani: Who's the winner!?
