After the show ended, Airi walked out of the infirmary with a compress on her neck to soothe her injury. She walked out and leaned against the wall.
“How am I supposed to smile like this? Heh heh…” she said, sitting down near the wall. “Even though I’ve only just arrived here, even though it’s just the beginning, I can’t deny that this kind of beginning, Miyamune Airi, will hurt.” She forced a weak smile before applying the compress to her head. “It seems you won, Yas-Chan. In practice, that’s true. I shouldn’t have believed you at first, but it’s good. This mistake taught me that there are moments when we’re sure something is ours, so I shouldn’t be complacent. And as promised, losers have no right to speak. I’ll admit you can win. Of course, I’ll also admit I was angry about the question of ‘respected’ when I overlooked something simple… it wasn’t just me who wanted to win. You took advantage of my confidence in winning, and you did it brilliantly…. but kuso!!!! I should have looked at you once before using my finishing move! It’s so frustrating!” She lightly slammed the ground, then chuckled slightly at her own clumsiness before her expression turned serious again, and she sighed softly. “Another easy mistake…” She paused for a moment, forgetting that a camera was panning to her. “Oh, oh, oh, oh! I completely forgot you guys were here! Hehe.” She quickly rubbed her head, feeling embarrassed. “What can I do? I heard this is your debut as a professional wrestler. So, I can only say congratulations. I hope we'll have a chance to meet again in the future. If we're still in this promotion, we'll definitely cross paths someday. I'm trying not to stress about it, but it's— It really hurts…” She smiled, acknowledging her own weakness. “But, like before… this is just the beginning.…. Zettai…. Daijoubu” She tilted her head in annoyance for a moment. “But you know what’s funnier than losing? Even though I’ve only been here twice, both times there were these ridiculous giants coming in. First, it was Tafae Toa, and now… it was Sofia Drakos! 一体どうしたの?! And after she threw me down, I saw someone else hit her with a sledgehammer, making a loud cracking sound! *CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!* Isn’t that insane!?!??”
“Wrestling should end in the ring. They can’t just do whatever they want like this. I think it’s utterly ridiculous. Who cares if a rookie wants more than just a match? I tried to be optimistic, hoping there wouldn’t be a third time….” She held up three fingers. “And it didn’t even take a day! Even though I wasn’t the one who got hit, I’ve had to be part of a wrestling show, using unconventional methods, three times in two weeks!”
“This is the fourth time now! What you're doing isn't wrestling anymore. Nobody likes being a punching bag for someone else to stand in the ring and then becoming a clown like this. I came to this promotion to face opponents from all over the world. Wrestling—” She was about to continue but then realized something. “But this isn't Japan, is it…? I might understand and try to adapt… but what I'm certain of is that no good fighter would choose to use that method to display their power. A few people… I don't want to say this, but sometimes I'm secretly pleased that she messed up like that, but I'm still not happy about what went down, and Malik… I haven't forgotten you, don't worry.” She pointed to the camera. “I'm not some saint who would let this slide. I try to keep my emotions in check to fight in the ring, but of course, this has happened three times in the two weeks I've been in this promotion. It's not funny. Who do you think you are? Do you think coming for the spotlight like this makes you look better? It’s absolutely ridiculous for those who think doing that is a good thing. Thinking that hurting someone outside the rules will make you feel better… You guys are the biggest idiots in the world, you know? But that means in this association, there are three people like me, and maybe more. I don’t know when this will happen to me again… It means I need to be extra careful. And even though I’m not strong enough in this association yet, being treated like trash on the side of the road isn’t right. I didn’t come here to be buried like this. The beginning might not be glamorous, but that’s okay. That’s how I’m going to cope. A new place, a new culture. As long as I don’t give up and I’m still here, it means I haven’t disappeared. Like I said at the beginning, I wouldn’t disappear. And next week, let’s see who I’ll face???” She discreetly glanced at the board for next week, trying to find her name. She just couldn’t see it. Her eyes widened in shock.
“....”
“Huh…?” She tried to trace the name again with her finger. “What the f{^]%k?!” She stared closer again….
“なに !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"What the hell is this?! I was so prepared, so eager to redeem myself, but what is this?!?!? My name's disappeared without a trace! Losing is acceptable, but my name vanishing like a cloud?! Even though I'm new here, of course I'm here to be number one! But what is this?! Look, look, look! Where's Miyamune Airi's name?! I didn't get a chance to get revenge on any of them in the ring. It's crazy… THIS IS CRAZY!" She started getting visibly angry. "At first, I wasn't going to be upset. I just wanted to say, even if Yasmina won, what did she say she could do? All she did was become a pushover, letting me break her arm and show off my techniques. Simply put, she got 'cooked'. That's what the foreigners call it. Or is that not true? Go watch it in the ring. In the end, I had to pin her. She talked big, but her speed was lacking, her technique was lacking, her counter-attacks were mediocre. The only good thing was the Asai Moonsault. I don't want to say this word, but look what wrestling is all about -- brute force. I hope you enjoy your victory, you idiot. If you think that means you're a good wrestler, then I'll bless you. I don't even want to talk to her; I'm exhausted. She just rambles on and on; she can't make sense of anything. Her tactics were so boring, especially the ring psychology. Her psychology just showed she's some kind of incomprehensible person. Do you understand now how utterly humiliating this makes me feel, just like I told you at the beginning?" Airi started ranting hysterically because she felt mismatched. "This is so unfair! What I went through with this... hazing? It's ridiculous! Some guys and gals, I don't know who, came out showing off their power. That speechless guy, that lady who came out here and beat us up like a scumbag, and then some crazy girl who came out... It's so infuriating—no... this is utterly unacceptable!”
“No, no, this isn't right! I won't let myself be treated like trash and unfairly discarded by you guys!” She angrily kicked a trash can nearby. “And yes, I won't be like that trash I just kicked!” She took a deep breath to compose herself. “Okay, okay, okay…. next week, no match means no match. And of course, I'll use this time to train even harder. And I won't be so careless again. It wasn't anyone's fault; it was mine in that match. But I won't let anyone make me feel like trash again like I did for the past two weeks. I'm still hungry for my first big stage appearance at EAW. And if this is what they call the ‘Land of Elite’, I want to tell you that you failed the test with what you've done. Because I'm certain that I'll be superior to you in the end. Remember my name. I will be the #1 Elite… BAAAAKAAAAAAA!!!! My blade, my sword, is ready to reach you."
"No matter who you are, slicing the void is my destiny. I believe that a million percent — Remember that!” She stuck her tongue out at the camera and stormed out of the frame.
