The Strongest Fairy

Chapter 46 Battle Tournament Finals Round 1 The Challenger

The young man who arrived was wearing high class armor which seems to be a noble, but seeing his face, it doesn't look like he has any ambition at all.

『The next person is Participant Genkaku. He is someone who came from a faraway country called Wadou. It seems like he is called a samurai, is that a job title resembling an adventurer if it's around here? 』

Genkaku was also standing bewildered. Both of them don't even show the will to do battle. That is what I have noticed since a while ago.

『Now, for the first match of the second group. Begin!!』

「I Surrender!!」

「Wha!?」

『A, Are? Ah... by way of surrendering that came from Participant Fission. Winner Participant Genkaku!!』

Defeat by immediate surrender, the two shook their hands but the other person was definitely trembling. His face turned red revealing his anger.

「Are you scared!! Or are you trying to mock me!!」

「Don't you get it already?」

Fisson, without answering what's the meaning of his words, looked around and said the same things once more.

「All of us are already considered losers, nobody's cheering and there's barely any audience. What pride are you trying to show here? Sorry, but unlike you, I'm a busy person so I'll be leaving first」

He was just watching Fisson as he left the stage while having a face as if a demon possessed him. More than half of the participants understood Fisson's decision though. But even so, as a man, they just couldn't give up that easily on their own. Because what Fisson left behind was quite true, his anger from that comment just won't go away. Other than the participants Aleid and Twiler, most participants just either surrendered or quit. And now it was finally my turn.

My opponent is an Adventurer that wields a dagger closely resembling a sword. I have been sparring with Arena as my partner using Daggers for quite some time now so I know roughly just how one would fight using that. It's just that this person, he's giving the same atmosphere as those who quit or surrendered. I can't feel any motivation in his eyes.

『There seems to be only two audience left, since it's kind of troublesome, can you just start it immediately?』

*grin, I expressly show my opponent a smile.

Did I hear something good just now? There is no other audience beside Arena and La Veil left? That means other than the staff, there's only the guards and the king. OK, then let's do that.

「I...Su「Wait a bit」 Eh?」

「Before declaring your surrender, don't you think that the B Block battle ending like this would be too bland? What do you think announcer-san?」

『Eh, ahh well. I think this is the first time in history that it became empty like this.』

Senial-san also confirmed the situation while a little embarrassed about it. Yosh, yosh, let's get this started!!

「Because my advancement would probably be decided, can I do a simple* demonstration of my skills until the time limit is over, I definitely will make it exciting before this ends」

『Eh, um, fine... but is your majesty ok with that?』[ED: not 100% sure the announcer actually addressed the king, but...]

Senial-san looked at me as if troubled, then looked towards where the king is.

「That is fine, certainly if things end up like this even I would feel bad about it. But be sure that it will be exciting.」

「Thank you」
