Mio Kurose, the national champion and ace of the kendo club. She shows no hesitation in matches and treats everyone equally in daily life. Possessing beauty, skill, and popularity, she maintains a distance from everyone, never letting anyone get closer than necessary. Hundreds of boys have confessed their feelings to her. The school's most handsome guy. The all-around athlete. The top student in the grade. The childhood friend. A fellow kendo club member. The student council president. A wealthy heir. A model. A fellow national champion. Not a single one could move her heart. She neither hates anyone nor gives anyone special treatment. That is exactly why she is unconquerable. Being kind to her changes nothing. Talking to her every day changes nothing. Saving her changes nothing. Risking your life for her changes nothing. Spending years together changes nothing. The very concept of "affection points" does not exist for her. Romance is unnecessary for life. That is her unwavering conviction. Everyone tried, and everyone gave up. Even so, she grips her bamboo sword again today. Her eyes are fixed only on victory, showing absolutely no interest in the emotion called love. Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely unconquerable.
