"Let's move freely today"

Only the family meets in the living room of Elf Mansion to discuss their plans for the day. Today is the end of the gladiators' tournament qualification, and it is a day of rest before this war. There are still dates in the Wang capital, but if you don't take an active break when you have a chance, it is my everyday life in the other world that comes down and gushes with as much to do.

I'd really like to make it a complete rest day, but maybe Satie wants to practice.

"What about Satie? I don't care if you practice or take the day off."

"I'd like to do a little"

I must have been hit a lot yesterday by a two-knife Armand. I guess you want to review it while your memory is clear.

"Then I'll hang out in the morning. Let's go play this afternoon."

I don't care if I do too much and give it to you tomorrow.

Tamara wants to thank you.

Yes, Ellie has said it.

One of the three recently purchased slaves, Tamara, is his wife. Turns out there's a guy I like where I bought it, so it's a waste but I stuck with him. So he's newlywed, and a honeymoon is bringing him to Wang Du with his husband. Of course, it's a gift from me, and it's also an experiment to see if there's any protection attached.

By the way, Luftna, a man hater, has only been in the King's Capital for a day, and she says there are too many people (men) to feel good about, leaving a message at the mansion with the rest of the elves.

"Looks like you're having fun. More importantly. I'll go check on you later."

I'm sure you're enjoying the king's capital without any interference. I'll arrange it myself, but I'm really jealous.

I was supposed to go sightseeing today, but I guess I'll pull it up early. You can always come to the King's Capital anyway. I don't even bother to go out for sightseeing at such a crowded time.

I've been looking forward to the festival quite a bit, but I'm not in the mood for much fun at the events of the last few days.

Besides, I don't feel like the festival itself in the end, just wanted to play the festival with everyone on Dashi.

Can we slow down later in the festival? There will be something about Satie and the King getting involved in the tournament, but I'm not talking about my subject, where Satie won the tournament, there may not be anything out there, and the King may not be satisfied with it since yesterday.

Think positive. God is dear here, and even though he is quite busy, he has nothing to do with the danger of his life. I'm sure the strengthening of Satti and his connections with the king will be positive.

Given that, this series of events from Sati's decision to participate in the tournament may not be bad either.

So what shall we do this afternoon? I think I'll find a bookstore. Wang Du will surely have a big bookstore. Then buy and eat in the stalls as appropriate. Festivals and sightseeing are irrelevant, just a normal date would be nice. When we were tired, we pulled up early - etc. - and we were all talking sloppily, Mr. Elf told us to come.

"We have a guest coming to Massal. They say he's in the operational office of the gladiators' tournament."

"Me? Not Satie?

"Yes, Master Masaru needs you."

I wonder what it is. About you diving in as a cleric on your first day? But I just treated that normally.

"Uh, did you feel angry?

"Seemed to be asking for something."

If you want to be an adventurer, you should go through the guild. Is it still about the treatment? Think I can do my job? Hmm. I knew I'd treat you normally, but that's the story... no, about the masked cleric... isn't this the same thing? Then it must be from the temple, and it's not a gladiator tournament operation.

I don't even know if you think about it, and if you're not mad or something, why don't you go talk to him?

But let's all go. Anxiety. I have a bad feeling.

There were two men waiting in the guest room. What bothered me was that Gatai was better, with no gaps and I feel magic. Is he about thirty years old? Are they wearing tailored, classy clothes and noble? My arms look pretty good, but it doesn't seem like they're round hips or even like escorts.

"Master Masar Yamanos, isn't he? Congratulations. Your participation in the gladiator tournament has been recognized."

"What?"

A middle-aged man who seemed weaker said that. Probably this one from the operation.

"Masal, when were you signing up?

Yes, Ellie asks, but of course I don't remember signing up for an appearance.

"I didn't sign up."

"I mean, right? He would love to compete in the gladiator tournament competition tomorrow..."

"If you want to leave, I'll sign up from the beginning. Why would you talk like that in the first place?

Armand or Sergeant. Or is it a deal per king?

"Let me explain it to you"

The other one finally opened his mouth.

"Ha."

"It's for the vengeance of my nephew, who was hit by Lord Massal. My name is Gustav Byron. It's George's uncle."

"George......?

Who is it? I have no idea what my nephew's revenge is.

"Wait a minute. You don't even know what my name is?

"No... sorry"

"Masaru, Masaru"

I pull my clothes when the tirica comes from behind.

"of my fiancée candidate, dueling in the Golem"

"Ah, uh!

That's him. Ah.

"Um, maybe... your nephew's dead?

It wasn't because of that injury, was it?

"Extremely fine."

"Then you can hate me and say it."

"Because of you, George is completely out of business, and I'm totally stuck."

You deserve it...

"George found you at the tournament venue. He cried for me to hurt him a little."

"I don't want to sell my fights to you!

Lilia reacted immediately to Gustav's words.

"Wait, Lord Elf. I praised it. I don't want to cause any more problems."

That thing must be getting complaints from the Adventurer Guild and the True False House. If we get into trouble again, it could develop into a Byron family responsibility issue as well as George's.

The Adventurer Guild doesn't know how to move, but the True False House is very scary when it pisses you off.

"So what's the story with the gladiator tournament?

"I mean, I'll sign you up for a duel. On stage for the gladiators' tournament."

"No. The combination wouldn't be so convenient in the first place, would it?

The operator says it's okay about that. Play the game before this war in the form of a preliminary qualifying round with this seed right that Mr. Gustav has. They say it's better to beat that in the form of a main battle appearance.

It's a little unusual, but it's still before the announcement of the combination, and they don't have any particular problems.

"Pull this one back, too."

George, you're the youngest son of the Byron family, and he seems to be greatly adored by his parents' grandparents because of their talent there.

So, Mr. George. He seemed to be blowing a lot of things into his family about the disturbance of his engagement with Tirica. I framed George by cowardly means and took Tirica or something.

So there was a raid plan at the King's Capital mansion of the Byron family, and Gustav was about to be appointed executive captain.

Gustav is a clan, but they're all divided. The head of the house is in the territory and the kings are absent. I can't move as soon as I contact you.

"It's a gladiator's tournament to carry things peacefully there."

"Public executions at competitions?

I tried to blah blah blah blah and he nodded at me.

"I say it because I can't help fixing it in front of Lord True and False Officer, but we talked about letting him take it down in front of a lot of people. Of course, I intend to give you some flowers. Do you have enough arms to defeat George in a single blow in the A-rank? Fight with dignity and prove your arm to convince everyone."

Hmm? Don't listen to that one now. Is that my premise to lose?

You want me to plan a raid on my own, and to prevent it, get out in the arena and get smashed?

If I lose like hell, that's fine. Even if he's strong enough to fight properly, he said that would deny George's falsehood.

"Of course not for free. If you get me a duel, I'll pay you 100 gold coins as a commission."

Is 100 pieces of gold worth 10 million yen? I guess it includes a nuisance fee and a stopping fee. I know it's a broken price, but now it's a bit of a rush.

"That's a lot of unsolicited rhetoric"

"You just have to get me a duel. Wouldn't that be easy?

I guess I don't think I want to go to the tournament when I'm making an adventurer out of business.

If you are slightly injured, you can easily heal with magic. Besides, he said he would pay a hundred gold coins, and he would also give them a handful. I'm pretty sure it's an easy request.

"Get a warning from the True and False Hospital"

Tirica pinched my mouth when I didn't respond.

"Would it have started in the first place when the True and False House introduced Miss Tirica, who has a lover, as her fiancée? I ask you not to speak to the House of Truth about this case."

"Fiancee candidate to be exact. I don't remember agreeing."

"That's that side of the line. This one was introduced as my fiancée, and that's what happened. I admit there was some inconvenience in George's response, but this is the one who was shamed."

Well, from George's point of view, it must be one side of the truth that he lost in a duel and got his fiancée stolen. I don't know. But I don't.

"As far as I'm concerned, I know it's already over with George losing, but I'm not convinced George and his surroundings, and on top of this, the True and False House will come out and talk about it. It's just George and you now, but if we get that far, the Byrons will officially certify you as their enemy. I'm not saying anything bad. Fight me. That's the problem."

You must have come here with the promise to pull me off to a duel. Gustav crushes his face if he goes home awesome, and George and his surroundings are not convinced.

"Master Masal is a guest of my mansion. The Byrons will turn the elves around, won't they?

Gustav looks baffled when the captain of the elf tells him so clearly.

"As a Byron family, I have a furry mind to deal with elves..."

"You think such a story would make sense inside the Elf Mansion?

"That's why I'm offering a duel openly and fairly this way"

Yeah, I'm worried about the elves for once. I wonder what would have happened if I had stayed at one of those lodgings.

"Try touching one finger on the massal. Elves won't forgive you," Lilia said.

"Let's officially protest the Byron family from the elves"

In response to Lilia's words, the troop leader mentioned that as well.

"That's not all for this one..."

"You're the one who said he was going to give our guest a hand."

Something tells me the elves are overreacting and developing into a big problem. This is a bit of a first. If I can put an end to this in peace, can I just take it?

"If we can duel, we can do it somewhere else, right?

It's an alternative for now. I don't want to go to the tournament as a duel is a good idea.

"Then not everyone will be convinced, and there may be an accident"

Accident. I mean, if we had a sneak duel, could the Byrons be coming for something? I don't even think I can do that with a genuine officer... No. Is it too late after it happens? It doesn't have to be. If one of us dies in a normal accident or is it incompetent, in an informal battle… is it safer to have a large audience and a well-rounded tournament?

Besides, the tournament uses a blade pulling weapon, and when it comes to a proper duel, it's as serious as I did with George?

"Don't you like losing in front of the public?

I'm afraid of the public, not losing.

"I don't think I'm gonna lose."

"Then why don't you fight square and let me win"

I can't tell you how scared I am to be in front of the big crowd here. Absolutely ridiculed.

"Masal, that's enough. I don't know how many houses this guy's got, but if he's gonna sell me a fight, he's gonna smash everything."

"What are you gonna do with an elf!?

"You know you're close to our king, right? The King will be listening to this story with interest."

"So I wonder what would happen if what George did became more widespread," this is Ellie.

"With all that going on, the Byrons will no longer be able to pull off, will they?

"Interesting. If you're gonna do it, let's hang out with him!," Lilia.

Oh, already. This is what I need to talk about if I'm going to the tournament.

"Yes, sir. Both sides that far."

Knock on the bread and hands to get attention.

"This is my personal story and the elves have nothing to do with it. Right?"

"Exactly"

Gustav gave me a relieved look in my words.

"Take the duel. So we're done talking, huh?

Even I can't say I'm always afraid of the big stage. I think we should overcome our weaknesses.

It is yet another matter that stands out and runs the risk of finding out with the Apostle. There will be many opportunities to be A-ranked and show strength from now on. Which way does Satie get out, and selling her name is a certainty.

The Byrons aren't going to convince me if I don't get out, and if I had a little bit of momentum, the elves could have started the war. Honestly, they say I have the least downside of being in the tournament...

"Promise me by the pride of Takemen"

"Shall we, Massal?

Not very nice, but better than going to war. No, in the first place. What's going on with the worst George thing about this thing?

"I guess George at the time will tighten it up, won't he?

"Oh, um..."

Toothpick is bad for my question. Leave George alone.

"Tell the truth," Tirica said.

"Isn't Lord Masal pretty strong? When the duel is over, those around you will also know what George said is a lie. So if George doesn't get his reflections ready..."

"Ask them to stand in front of the Authentic Officer (I)"

I don't know what else to do.

"That's all?"

"That's enough."

Yes, Tirica said so, so I decided to trust her.

I've been hit before, but the interrogation of a true or false officer doesn't make me feel comfortable being washed up. I'm sure Tirica will make George look terrible.

Seems harder to dispose of than that. After all, what George did was an attempted raid on me and a scattered denigration of my reputation throughout the Byron family.

The raid was just an attempt, and I'm just a civilian and I'm not guilty. I can't help what's inside the Byron family either.

Gustav just came to me to sign up for a personal duel, and even if he's threatened and the elves overreacted, it's some kind of problem-free behavior. The duel itself is only a situation that I don't like critically, a gladiator's tournament, and it is truly moderate and fair using a blade pulling sword.

It's not refreshing. George's left alone, and there's nothing good about it where I went to the tournament.

I guess it would be my fault if I went to hit George with this. Oh, there were hundreds of gold coins.

"It's a game, but if you even dress up, you can have it abandoned in the right place. That's a hundred gold coins. Wouldn't that be bad?

See you later. You don't even think I'd lose as much as Dew if I could.

Do you want to negotiate an increase if you win? Double... no, it's ten times. 100 million yen.

"Honestly, that's not much."

"Mm, but..."

"Let's do this. If you lose, you don't have to pay the fee. Instead, I'll have it multiplied ten times when I win."

100 million if you win. Besides, this confident guy's nose snaps. I think I'm going to do it there, but I feel like I've seen it, and I'm not sure I'm stronger than Mr. Lazard.

"That's a thousand gold coins, all right. But you can't cut it, can you?

Gustav made his decision without much trouble. Are you insulting me or do you still have room for pricing?

"Fine. I'll beat you to pieces with all my might. A thousand gold coins than that. I guess we can have it right, huh?

"Be sure to have it ready by the end of the game. But if you lose, are you sure it's okay without a reward?

"Shall I tell you because I have trouble being complained about after the battle has been decided? The Adventurer Guild teacher says I'm strong enough to win."

"Well, then let me tell you something. When I came out five years ago, I am a semi-finalist. I'm not going to lose once this time."

Seriously. If you think you're somewhat confident...

"I'll look forward to tomorrow's match."

I tried to say that in the guise of spare time, but what do I do? It would be a shame to lose this one, and it would work for free.

■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■

"Sorry, Masal"

"It's not Tirica's fault."

If it's bad, is it a fake hospital? And George.

"Um, because I said I wanted to leave..."

It's not Satie's fault, of course.

"More than that, Games, are you okay?

Ann asks me worried.

"Well, you'll be fine."

Strong, but I know the atmosphere after watching the gladiator tournament for two days. I thought it was something more spectacular in the arena, but it felt like an out-of-the-box.

Guests were watching hard, and if you concentrate on the game, you'll probably figure it out.

Tomorrow's main battle is two games simultaneous and will not attract as much attention as I would say. I think. I think.

It is assumed that it will stand out somewhat more than it has become A-ranked. Even if it's more than necessary, you might be wondering if there's anything dark or hidden behind it. In fact, that has happened, and even now I can't think of a way to avoid a gladiator tournament.

"For now, Satie. Let's get some practice."

I stopped going out that afternoon just in case. I spent a whole lot of time at Elf Mansion.

My stomach hurts when I think about tomorrow, but it wasn't bad that everyone cared about me and flattened me.
