And it began, the third round.
……but it’s mostly just fixed matches among us.
except the maid
First was the Suzumoto VS Kariya battle but……mhm, it was quite amazing.
Suzumoto dodging the barrage of [Laser Shot] and [Light Ball] as if he was dancing and occasionally hitting light balls back to counter, Kariya maintaining a barrage to prevent Suzumoto from closing in.
It was quite beautiful and worth watching, but well, in a few minutes, Kariya reached the limit of his MP, had Suzumoto’s katana thrust before him and hands up, it ended just like that.
No, it is quite amazing that a rear guard healer could fight this much against a specialised front line attacker.
The audience must have been satisfied by this.
it’s a light show~
In contrast, Hariu and President’s battle was quick. President resigned at the start and the end.
Well, poison to melt allies is a waste, there’s no meaning in melting allies’ equipment and in the first place there is no meaning in exposing that allies’ [Poison Resistance]. That was smart.
Also, the audience looked relieved. Mhm, there were a lot of people braced for that mystery victory again.
black box victory
Next is Kadomi-kun and Org-san the warrior. ……well, the match ended quickly, there was nothing special to mention. Those people that were expecting something like Kadomi-kun VS Toriumi are disappointed, well, it can’t be helped.
too weak
And finally, it’s my turn.
This……for this, I must somehow, be careful not to lose, and pray for good luck.
just resign if only asked for a date
And I am now facing Rijsan the swordsman.
He lowered his waist and readied his sword, it is the stance for a speed attack.
This is bad this is bad. I want to buy as much time as possible. Whether I sing or not, I need time.
Fo, for now [teleport] to the sky……no, the ground is fine in this case.
There is only 1 opponent, so nobody will be charging in from my blind spot.
Wait and see first.
Rijsan charged straight in but, mhm. If it’s that then I can dodge it, it should be fine to watch a little.
Okay, then let’s jump straight behind Rijsan, all the way to the edge of the stage.
A few seconds before the tip of Rijsan’s sword can reach me, [Teleport].
Then Rijsan’s body slammed into the edge of the stage and he is both out and unable to continue combat.
…works?
Yes. It might be hard to understand the unexpected accident that has happened like this, so this is sudden, but I will be explaining the structure of this colosseum’s stage.
This colosseum’s stage is circular.
It is roughly 100m in diameter and made of stone. Height of 2m.
Outside that is [Out]
Next, about the characteristics of [Teleport], let me explain the parts that I understand.
This [Teleport], it transports yourself and things to be carried along [in their exact relative positions based on yourself].
By the way, the kinetic energy etc at that time are all carried over.
Basically, if [teleported] while running, you would also be in the same running condition where you teleported to.
rip Rija
And the accident this time happened like this.
As Rijsan was running over, I accidentally included Rijsan and [teleported] to the edge of the stage on Rijsan’s side.
Me teleporting to the edge of the stage, means that Rijsan who was in front of me……is out and 2m in the air.
But it didn’t just end like that, his running speed continued towards me, and gravity also works……
Rijsan ended up slamming his body into the edge of the stage.
accidentally?
I also didn’t know what happened for an instant, mhm ……I quickly put on an act, made a face like “Eh? That was exactly as planned, any problem?” and tried raising my staff to declare my victory and, mhm, somehow, I don’t understand it but there were cheers.
……mhm. Mhm, somehow……somehow, Rijsan, sorry.
poor guy
“That was amazing. In places with this kind of set stage and if it was one on one, isn’t [Teleport] the strongest?”
“Mhm, I’m also starting to feel that way.”
Honestly, thinking carefully, this can be quite an effective means of attack depending on the location.
It is quite tricky and definitely doesn’t have good mileage though.
“Toriumi can just use it too.”
Toriumi is holding on to the former-[Teleport] hair clip that Tsukimori-san copied, now [Teleport] armband. Or rather, he has it equipped.
“No, it’s consumption is ridiculously bad.”
“Yeah~”
If you can fight normally that is definitely better.
“Nn~, I won’t use it unless there is really a need to end it quickly or if some trick is necessary~”
“Yeah~”
……mhm. Well, my only method of attack-like method of attack is this, mhm.
no choice
And so, a completely fixed tournament has begun.
First, Suzumoto VS Hariu, Hariu resigned and the end. Apparently, it is a waste of throwing weapons.
Well~, that would be the case for President and Hariu, those fighting with consumables.
Next is Kadomi-kun VS me, but the instant Kadomi-kun moved I [teleported] myself off the stage and ended it. Yay~
At a glance, it should look like Kadomi-kun did something and sent me flying.
instantaneously?
And the finals should also have been fixed……should, have been.
But, it seems these guys can’t go easy on each other.
Suzumoto VS Kadomi-kun.
……I hardly ever see them fight seriously.
I’ve seen them scatter small fry quite a lot……but, this is amazing.
Amazingly, beautiful.
That fight was so arranged that rather than a fight, it was more of an arranged dance.
……mhm. I think it can’t be helped that the audience was entranced.
After all this is……amazing. This, can’t be helped.
here’s the service
The match that lasted 30 minutes ended with Kadomi-kun’s [Glorious Blade] knocking away Suzumoto’s katana.
The silence that enveloped the arena right after the end of the battle was memorable.
And like this, with Kadomi-kun as the winner of the Mono section, the curtains closed on the first day of the gladiator tournament amidst large cheers.
1 our of 3
……but then. Suzumoto unleashing ever-changing sword techniques, dancing lightly like a bird or butterfly and Kadomi-kun was so honestly direct and sharp, fighting with lighting as his ally. They fit right into the audience’s mold of strength and beauty.
No, it actually was amazing though.
Then Toriumi who had fought a battle with Kadomi-kun that will go down in history, Hariu who takes down his opponent by throwing with unparalleled accuracy……
Somehow, very irritatingly……we are surrounded.
Among those that approached and are surrounding us, there are boys and warriors that simply look up to them, soldiers and warriors that came to invite them. And most of all, young, beautiful girls.
It’s that, see, if there are strong, handsome, young men, of course they would be attractive, probably.
……mhm. Throwing their honour or whatever out the window, I will say this.
Their age=years without a girlfriend. Probably.
Basically, they have no immunity to this kind of thing. It can’t be helped.
Resultingly, what happened is basically, all ignored.
To the point that it is manly, ignore.
Both the seduction of cute girls and adoration, ignore.
Calls for autographs, love letters and handshakes, ignore.
Even the onee-sans that work at night, ignore.
Mhm~……if these guys were more skillful, they might have been able to gather support here and start a movement to release slaves. A shame.
Maito be an idol?
Yes yes, when I exited the arena, a lot of people also called out to me.
Mainly magicians. As expected, they are interested in the magic they have never seen before.
Of course there is no way I can spoil it, so I pushed through with ‘it’s a secret’.
What I understood here, is that there are many male magicians in this world.
There were also female voices, but the male to female ratio was about 8:2?
The ratio of males is large for science, so it might be something similar for magicians. Or rather, it might be that there aren’t many women in combat professions.
For now, I acted relatively sociably. Connections is what we are lacking the most right now.
It isn’t something that will cause problems by having them.
are you sure?
And something even more troublesome, President got strange fans. Actually, these guys are the most troublesome.
Researchers that research poisons and that kind of enthusiasts.
There are otakus in any world.
What’s with you guys! Don’t bring poisons here! Don’t start an exhibition! Don’t taste test! Idiots! If you are going to drink and puke then don’t drink! Don’t make those people over there drink it! Aaaaaaaaah!
police!
It felt like it was getting out of hand, so I downed everyone with [Lullaby], woke the rest up and ran.
good maid
After that, we [teleported] to the 2F north east area for dinner and a strategy meeting.
Ah, today’s dinner is pork cutlet. A good luck meal, sorry for it being a simple one.
“Tomorrow is the Di section……well, doesn’t seem like there will be a problem if we do it like today.”
Mhm~, somehow feels like it’s going to end very quickly.
“So, yeah. ……Maito. Sorry but please fix the equipment by tomorrow.
“Yeess?”
“Things were broken and cut.”
……yes. The innerwear and mantles I made for this tournament have been damaged quite flashily.
Hey, you guys, it’s fine to enjoy fighting without holding back.
But if you would avoid destroying the equipment, that would make me happy yeah?
For now, I somehow made equipment for everyone by working at top speed after eating. Yes.
……but this, you guys……will definitely destroy them again tomorrow right?
ye
I slept in the paradise of Ketorami-san and Hanter, and good morning.
Today, after sending everyone off to the capital, it will be a day where I focus on sewing on my own.
Since I’m not participating in the Di section anyway, I will be staying behind.
After sending them off with bentos, I then returned to 2F north east area with [teleport], then kept sewing.
I made equipment while trying things out with [Compounder] (Of course, I made a few sets with the premise that they will be destroyed, yes), then prepared dinner.
Today, let’s have stew for the first time in a while.
It’s delicious after simmering them for a while, but it really takes time.
It might be a good idea to get Hariu and Toriumi to make me a thermal cooker.
can they make something like that?
And then to pick up everyone, I [teleported] to that inn then headed to the colosseum.
alone?
“Hello, Dalisan. You were not watching?”
After waiting for a while outside the colosseum, a magician that spoke to me yesterday called out to me.
“Yes, since I already know the results.”
“……which, are?”
“The people from the foreign country won right?”
“Ah, those people from yesterday. They were magnificent.”
Mhm, I’m part of them though. Sorry.
“But you were also as magnificent as them. That unknown magic, what was that?”
“I said this yesterday too. It’s a secret.”
Or rather, even if this wasn’t a skill and was magic, I don’t understand what the magic in this world is at all, so I can’t explain. Sorry.
That is a shame. But secrets do make women look more beautiful.”
Ah, I agree with that. Mhm mhm, a peek rather than just exposed, I understand that.
“Dalisan, how about dinner with me tonight?”
Hm? The conversation seems to have jumped? It’s suddenly a jump in logic. But I already have dinner ready.
“I have already prepared dinner.”
I’ve went to the effort to stew deer shanks, I want to eat it.
“Oh my, excuse me. You already had a family?”
“Most definitely not.”
I’m not having that as a family!
“Ah, that’s good! Then how about tomorrow? Or even the day after, any time is fine.”
Eh, what? Me eating with you is already confirmed?
……is it that?
No matter what, he still wants to know more about that [Magic]. It’s probably that.
Then he wants to feed me dinner, make me feel good, then after that……ensnare me or threaten with force to find out. It must be that.
This is bad. If I accidentally reveal that it’s [Lost Blessings], I might be kidnapped again.
When I was thinking of how to escape while forcing a smile, after an impact, my body floated.
And then that magician-san disappeared into the distance.
Or rather, the scenery is rushing by.
“Maito, are you okay? Did he do anything strange?”
Yes, I am currently shouldered by Suzumoto as he sprints
Yes, like a bag of rice. My body is being shaken up and down and it’s extremely uncomfortable!
“I’m fine so let me down, I’m going to puke.”
“Don’t puke, endure it. [Teleport] once we get to a deserted area, it’s troublesome for us too.”
……ah, could fans be chasing them again?
Well, can’t be helped. They are foreigners after all. They are foreigners with ikemen correction.
you too Maito
And so, I [teleported] once we turned a corner. Back to 2F north east area!
“……so, everyone, how was it, you won?”
“Ah, Hariu and Katori pair won.”
Hou, that was unexpected.
“……I thought I was going to die……”
……seeing Kadomi-kun’s exhaustion, I can somehow tell what happened.
Katori-kun, you……used maximum output on allies right?
…..merciless
And after repeating more magnificent fights, they got more fans and had to escape like that.
Hm, you guys also have it tough.
cause they not as dense
“So, who was that?”
During the meal, Hagasaki-kun suddenly asked that, but since there’s no context I have no idea who he is talking about.
“Which one?”
“The one talking to you in front of the colosseum.”
Ah~, that person.
“A magician-san that spoke to me yesterday. He was stubbornly inviting me to dinner when you guys kidnapped me, that was a great help. Thanks.”
“Not a kidnapper?”
“No idea, that person was just zealous about solving the mystery of [Lullaby] in a bad way, probably.”
When I answered, Hagasaki-kun just said I see and returned to dinner.
Mhm, deer shanks, delicious right?
“Well, it’s fine if you’re okay.”
“It was the rice transportation afterwards that was less okay.”
I am still feeling a little unwell. It wouldn’t have been strange to puke from that you know?
“……sorry. I couldn’t think of any other way to carry you.”
I see, Suzumoto-kun’s imagination is lacking. Improve on that next time.
the end
Well……that method of carrying is efficient……
Also passerby has provided this ❤
Maito looks adorable~ The headpat~~~ Last scene too.
I should get around to buying the LN~
