Dungeon Master Makeup Money (formerly known as Dungeon Master Funding)

Step through the hallway through the lattice entrance to the game field.

Bright thanks to the lights on the ceiling so that the game can be seen firmly even from the outside.

There are already opponents on the playing field.

He's a muscular man with handcuffs on both wrists. However, although the handcuffs are fitted, they are not connected and therefore not restrained.

"A criminal slave."

"Oh, yeah. Are you freaking out?

He was grinning at me if he heard me whining when he confronted the other guy.

"Nothing. But don't worry about why we fight."

"It's a simple story. If I only had a strong killing urge for a little while, I couldn't bear to kill him and get caught. It's been a really boring day while they put me in the barn. That's what he told me about the arena."

The opponent's gaze is directed at the man watching the game in a private room.

A beautifully shaped man with green hair is watching with a grin on his face.

"Is that him?

"That's right. Apparently the president of the Jorges Chamber of Commerce. I don't care who he is to me, though. It's just enough if you can fight someone."

I know what happened to the opponent.

And it was also known that he did not have important information.

"I won't have time to cry. I'll sink you."

A man who moves his hands excitedly.

The rules in a match in the arena are simple. Win if the opponent admits to surrendering or becoming uncombatable. If there's nothing like going to the audience, it doesn't even exist off-site. You will continue to fight as long as you can.

"I've sunk with my bare hands, too, the people I've fought before. I'm gonna be careful not to die, but maybe I'll die."

Attacks that take the opponent's life are strictly forbidden in the arena. But it may be more than a place to risk your life to fight, you may lose your life for some reason.

You won't be punished severely for something that has some penalties.

That's the same even when the other person is a criminal slave.

"If you make money in this arena, you can be liberated, right?

"Did you know"

Not every criminal slave thinks like this one.

Still, Iris guessed when he heard there would be more than a certain number of criminal slaves in the game. If you win a game, you get paid. But you don't get to spend money on them living the bottom line as slaves.

Then what are you fighting for?

slaves, what we want more than anything for those corrupted by the position of being 'free'.

But that's impossible. That's why I tried hanging my kama, but it looks like I can really get it.

"They're gonna change the amount depending on the gravity of the crime committed, but they're gonna let you go when they make a fixed amount of money."

It would never be possible if it were normal.

For those who have fallen into slavery by debt or who have fallen into slavery by circumstances that do not compel them to stop, slaves may be freed at the discretion of their masters.

However, in the case of criminal slavery, it is becoming impossible to release them at the hands of the slave trader or the purchased master. If that happens, if you pile up the money, you'll be escaped from sin.

It is possible that the Jorges Chamber of Commerce is lying and letting criminal slaves fight.

But maybe they're really going to let you go. It is also not impossible to free criminal slaves if they have such a handout against the administration that those in a position to manage criminal slavery are too powerful.

"I'm not interested. Here, my greed is satisfied just because I'm in a game like this."

"Right. But that's as far back as today."

"Oh, what is that..."

What you will soon find out.

Distance yourself from them because you don't even need to answer.

Bets are made in this game.

I expected which one would win, but the multiplier was overwhelmingly high when I won.

Naturally. The opponent has a proven track record of winning many fights in the arena by mouth. By contrast, I have no track record. The title of A-rank Adventurer, etc. did nothing in the arena where strength said things.

Well, that's more helpful. Perhaps Per Ira is betting a lot of money on my victory. Let me make some good money.

The bell at the start of the game rings.

"Oh, hey -"

"Sorry."

- Dogon!

Victory and defeat were decided in an instant.

Shortly after he stepped out to take me down, he approached me sooner than he recognized me approaching him, and I grabbed his opponent's head and slapped him to the ground.

The opponent, who has been hit hard on the head, is completely passed out.

"Judgment"

It will be up to the referee, who is closest to the audience, to decide whether it is impossible to continue the fight.

The moment when the referee could also be slapped because it was so instantaneous had been missed.

Still, it is obvious that it is impossible to continue the fight if you look at it now.

You immediately declared my victory.

A subtle cheer occurs in the arena.

"Thanks"

Waving his hand into the hallway where he walked into the game field.

The cheer is subtle because for those who were looking forward to the sight of fighting, there was dissatisfaction because it was settled too lightly.

Still, the cheers were happening because the people I was betting on who would win were happy.

"Hey."

Dorjut greeted me as I proceeded down the hallway.

Just fine.

"What do I do next?

"Have you talked to him about the next game?"

"I know you can make money, but I'm not staying here long."

It's not just the prize money Ira was betting on.

Winning the game also brings out prizes.

You'll make money there, but there are limits to making money this way.

"The Jorges Chamber of Commerce guys must have been a big miscalculation."

The Jorges Chamber of Commerce is partitioning the arena.

There was some confusion in allowing me to jump in.

"In the first game, let people fight criminal slaves who are hobbyists about pestering people. The thought of them is that a tough man beats the kid who participated in the game. You should have enjoyed it better as a show."

But the result was the opposite, and it ended in an instant.

I thought that would be the place.

"You don't need me to hang out with those thoughts."

The game is free to bring in weapons.

Even magic and skills can be used without restriction.

Only the minimum rules are set.

Nor does the rule exist that we should not play games that bore the audience.

"Just set the next game. It won't be funny to the organizers or the audience, but I'll show you something interesting."

"What the hell are you gonna do?"

"Show them your overwhelming power."

Then repeat the first challenge, that is, five games organized in a short time.

Grab the opponent's head and slap him to the ground in all matches.

It hasn't even taken a few seconds.

The organizers are also anxious to roll out the overwhelming game. I just wanted to stop playing, but the air in the arena was all over the air about who could stop my winning streak. It is no longer possible to suspend the appearance with the intent of the organizers.

So it was decided to put out the strongest warrior in the arena.
