Chapter 344
Chapter 344 – The Usual Martial Arts Tournament
The martial arts tournament is held in Big Tree Village .
The civil servant girls took care of it this year too so I had it easy .
But this year, I also worked hard on food .
「There’s a lot of sweets this year . 」
Doraim tells me that while picking up a plate of pancakes with whipped cream and fruit .
That’s because I want to please the children .
There’s the fairy queen too .
「The fairy queen… . If she tastes these sweets, she won’t return home for a long time, right?」
She’s been here for a while and already built her own house in the flower garden .
It looks like a fancy, huge flower house .
Maa, she doesn’t always sleep there and no one even knows if she’s still in the village or not .
By the way, that’s already her second house .
Her first house was tampered by the children and withered .
Though she built it without permission, I still scolded the children because of the poor withered house . The fairy queen, on the other hand, just laughed at it and forgave them .
I feel like I lost in terms of broad-mindedness .
No, they have to be disciplined .
When I told the fairy queen not to spoil them, she said that the child doing something like that is the parent’s responsibility and the parent in question is me .
I’m not all convinced but as an adult, I know she’s right when she indirectly scolded me .
I hope that the children will reflect on their actions when they saw me being scolded .
That’s what I hoped but the children continued playing happily .
……
Don’t you feel anything with your father being scolded?
Well, I guess it’s fun to chase fairies .
Hnn?
No one’s looking at me .
It’s like they can’t see . ……
Ah, don’t just use invisibility magic on me!
「Of course I would . Or do you want to make the children feel uncomfortable? 」
She’s child-centered in all aspects .
However, if you really think of the children, you should let them reflect properly now!
Me and the fairy queen talked about children’s education passionately .
Maa, we’re in parallel in all aspects .
The fairy queen orders like the lord in the dining space behind the venue .
「Next is four layers, no, make it five! Put plenty of that white thing and fruits! The sauce is… . . strawberry . 」
She’s surrounded by children .
Because of how she acts day by day, the fairy queen is popular with the children .
「Queen, I got some juice . 」
「Queen, this one is sweet too . 」
……
Children .
Don’t spoil the fairy queen too much .
The break time is about to end so I head toward my designated seat with Doraim .
There are Dors, Raimeiren, Grafaloon, Girar, ancestor-san, demon king, Yuri, Beezel, Randan, Glatts, and Hou .
This year, Michael-san and the two previous Four Heavenly Kings from Village Five have come too .
The teleportation gate is convenient as expected .
My seat is in front of the stage of the martial arts tournament .
My seat is a bit flashy so sitting on it is embarrassing .

The common section and the warrior section have ended and each showed us heated battles .
The knight section is about to begin .
Last year, Loo and Tier were absent because of Village Five and now that they are here, it will surely be exciting .
The highlight of the first round of the knight section is the battle between Tier and the two consecutive years winner Kierbit .
It’s not surprising to treat their match similar to the final match .
No one knows who will win or who will lose .
Or so I thought . Tier easily overwhelmed the match .
According to Youko’s commentary, Kierbit and Tier are almost the same in terms of character and tactics but Tier is one level higher so the result is not surprising .
「This is not surprising . If Kierbit finds her own technique, it will be a tough battle . 」
That sounds hard .
However, Kierbit looked strangely cheerful .
I wonder why?
「Kierbit is… . in a certain way, Tier-sama’s fan-desu . 」
Gran Maria told me so .
I see .
The matches go on .
Perhaps because we’re doing it every year, everyone has countermeasures against strong contenders .
Even an amateur like me can see that they devised their fighting method though they were not able to turn the tables around .
I am impressed that everyone is working hard .
The final battle is between Loo and Ria .
Tier, who defeated Kierbit, had been defeated by Loo in the semifinals .
Before their battle, she had a tough battle against a spiderling .
Loo is lucky to have Gran Maria then Kuudel as her opponents .
However, her luck reached the limit when she reached the finals .

Compared to Loo, who’s quite tired from her battle with Tier, Ria is fine .
She’ll be able to win this match by one-sidedly sniping Loo .
This is too advantageous for Ria… .
Or so I thought but I was wrong .
Loo evades Ria’s shots and makes it a close combat match . She then beats Ria .
Congratulations .
Is Ria okay?
She only fainted?
Is she safe?
Have Flora treat her .
And I realized I have no combat sense at all .
None of my expectations happened .
After the knight section is over, it is free battle .
Those who want to fight will go to the stage and fight .
Dors and Girar took the lead .
It’s a fierce battle but it’s a little safe because they are in their human forms .
It’s the usual festival .
I won’t be surprised if free battle takes all night .
But don’t get injured .
Youko, I won’t fight .
Hnn?
Why does the demon king look like that?
Did he change his hairstyle as some sort of disguise?
It doesn’t look like a disguise so a change of pace?

No, that doesn’t matter …
What matters is that the fairy queen suddenly pops out behind the demon king and the demon king disappears .
Eh?
The demon king was on the stage .
To be precise, he’s in the middle of the fighting Dors and Girar .
And he was caught in the battle .
Is he safe?
Ah, he’s fine .
He managed to evade both Dors and Girar’s attacks .
Amazing .
As expected of the demon king .
While I’m impressed, I tried catching the laughing fairy queen . At the same time, both Dors and Girar transformed into their dragon form .
Oi oi, this is a small place……I mean, everyone’s already used to it .
Everyone evacuated with food and drinks on their hands .
The only person who failed to evacuate is the demon king .
His face is twitching .
Will he be alright?
……it looks like he’s in a very dangerous situation .
Ah, he’s trying to escape .
Do your best .
I scold the fairy queen while evacuating .
「Don’t teleport people without permission . 」
「Okay . 」
She apologized properly so I forgive her .
「No, wait . I almost died . Be a little more strict . 」
Since the demon king, who managed to escape, looks dissatisfied, I’ll be a little more strict .
