I’m an Adventurer! ~Musou Skill is Plane Magic~

As usual, he picked up the Vicomte in the town of Dantes and flew to King's Landing. I will not accompany Ginger this time. If you and your wife always leave town, the administrative work between them will be difficult. The lord is in trouble.

And entered King's Landing yesterday, and today is February 28. This is the first day that the qualifying tournament will be held.

Me and the Vicomte were exempt from the qualifiers, but I decided to watch the qualifiers, so this was the date. Maybe there's something really powerful going on. Although it is only possible to stay in King's Landing, it is a single house with a garden where you can live with a dog, so don't be alarmed.

The venue is a training ground for the Knights of the Kinsai in King's Landing. Ordinary fantasies can have huge arenas, but apparently not in this country.

"There's no permanent state-owned one. As a country, I really want you to fight monsters and hostiles rather than fighting each other. The Bandit Guild-sponsored underground arena is a bit big. I don't know where I am."

"Heh. Oh, so there was a stone stage in the basement tavern when the Border Sets Bandit Guild was being picked up? I thought you could dance."

"Probably. I wonder who wins while drinking."

It wasn't in the basement of the dome, and there wasn't a spectator seat. That is not enough to set the stage for deciding the world's strongest. The strongest creature will not be motivated.

There were receptions at the entrance to the training hall, and there were a large number of admission seekers lined up. The tournament reception is already closed, so this will be a list of viewers. I came quite early, but it's more crowded than I expected. Is it that popular? Fighting boom?

"I spoke to the inn yesterday, but the royal family seems to be putting a lot of effort into it. They say the final tournament is also a bet, so they might be gathering information about the participants."

"Oh, really? Of course, it's a country, right?

"Betting is the most lucrative thing to do."

"What, you're doing the same thing as the Bandit Guild?"

"It would be perfect if you sold alcohol. Ufufu"

"If the state does it, it's legal, otherwise it's illegal. That's power."

"Too much!

"... it's sloppy"

Sad or not, that's the reality. However, there is also the idea that the state should control as much as it can be a source of funding for criminal organizations. It's better to keep the peace. Not if it's going to be income. I suppose that was true this time. In fact, Dolton's whorehouse is run by the Adventurers Guild. Illegal prostitution is subject to control.

Speaking of which, I heard about the casino bill. What happened to that? I wonder if it was passed... well, it doesn't matter now.

When we decided to go in line, there was another entrance for the knights to protect. You're rattling. Of course, we'll get in from there. No waiting time. Hey, power is handy!

"... it's sloppy"

◇

The training area was as large as I thought, and the equipment was good. The size is usually three or more sides of soccer, and there are also stone stands that have become chick stands. At the top of the audience is a box seat for VIPs. It's usually a stadium or a soccer field. We go to the box seat as a matter of course.

"This is King's Landing. Royals and nobles sometimes watch the training. It's the equipment for that."

The Countess explains while sitting on a leather sofa by a large open window. Not so soft, this couch. What's in there?

Originally, it was not reserved for the Knights of the Kintetsu, but a common training ground for the Knights stationed in King's Landing. It seems that this was the overhaul of the Domestic Knights and became exclusive to the Kintetsu Knights.

Originally there were four Knights in the kingdom: Kintetsu, First, Second, and Third. I don't know in detail what role the Knights of Kinsai played, but of these, the Knights of Kinsai were half-destructed in the coup attempt, merged with the Second Knights to become the new Knights of Kinsai, and the Third Knights were suspended due to the Fake Pirate (Debkappa) incident.

In addition, the First Knights were depleted in the war with Jarkin, and almost all but the Kinsai Knights were shut down. The reorganization was inevitable. Except for the Kinsai Knights, they were dismantled and reorganized into new Knights.

The Knights of the Kintetsu expanded their area of responsibility, formerly only guarding the imperial castle, but now the main role was to maintain law and order in and around the imperial castle and the imperial capital. The Imperial Palace Police Plus Police Department in Japan?

The newly established Knights of Guard is a Knights of Domestic Security outside King's Land that primarily conducts crime investigations and policing in cities and villages. This is the prefectural police. Largest on a large scale.

Another new creation is the Knights of Defense, an army to fight foreign countries. They're planning an expedition out of the country, so it's not a militia, it's an ordinary army.

As such, the Knights are undergoing a major overhaul, but lack of manpower is the current problem. Many knights were incorporated into the Knights of the Guard during the restructuring, but the Knights of Defense are severely understaffed. Now that the war with Jarkin is over, it's not a problem, but we can't keep it that way forever. Without armaments, they would be jammed if they were invaded by other countries. Early expansion is essential.

The king was blurry about that. I know how you feel, but please stop calling me to King's Landing to be stupid. No, I'm one of the main culprits. That being said, I think it would be nice to give a child a defense consultation.

Well, is this tournament about solving it?

How dare you join the Knights from among the players who have too much power? What about Prince Wang's birthday and the relationship between me and Mr. Klein? I made it look good. That's what the king thinks.

The newly established Knights of Defense are mostly made up of infantry, albeit called the Knights. This is the first attempt in the Kingdom's history. The reason for this is the appearance of guns.

The guns that Jarkin's reincarnated brought into this world have changed the way war works. The personal strength of knights and soldiers has transformed the classic war that shapes the battle from a modern war in which quantity and information determine victory and defeat.

Guns are easier to handle than swords and spears. Just aim and pull the trigger. Battlefields can be covered with a low level of practice, and no mobility is required. It sucks to be approached, but we don't have to put up a barrage there to make it that way.

In other words, we're going to need numbers for operations anyway. Since so many knights cannot be prepared, it is inevitable that the main force will be infantry.

Of course, even if you have a low level of practice, you need basic health as a soldier. Guns are quite heavy and ammunition must be carried. So it's a martial arts tournament.

Competitors will be proud of their strength and health, so they can expect shorter basic training and early combat power. It must have been a ship for the Knights of Defense, whose urgent task was to boost their manpower. The name of the ship may be Titanic.

The King is so clumsy, isn't he? You seem to be acting with an idea, and you're going to calculate everything. Speaking of which, it was like that the first time I made contact. As a leader, I can count on you, but I don't want to be a partner because it's personal trouble. Seriously, it's troublesome. I said it twice because it's important.

"Well, that's what happened. I can't believe you noticed that, Beat!

"The expansion of armaments? You want to raise taxes?

"He said he wouldn't raise it for the time being. We have compensation money from Jarkin and tax revenues from the new territory. But if the economy doesn't turn around, we'll have to raise taxes, so I was told to get the streets up and running."

"Hmm, the shochu was liked by His Majesty. I was instructed to increase the production and turn it over to King's Landing. There are streets, but we need to build more factories quickly."

Soon the border will be a testing ground for the kingdom's economy. No, I set it up.

If successful, there will be competition for construction rush and specialty development throughout the Kingdom in the future. That is nothing more than the revitalization of the economy. If tax revenues rise and life becomes richer, it will be a win-win for everyone. Therefore, we must succeed in improving the streets and expanding the sales of shochu at all costs. It is a heavy responsibility.

Everyone sat down and talked on the sofa and window frame and cheered at the training ground below. Apparently, the qualifiers are finally starting.

The qualifiers are Battle Royale. Participants will be divided into twelve pairs, with each winner advancing to the final tournament. Six of them are fighting today.

New rules have been added that were not in place at the time of announcement for both the qualifiers and the finals. It's an off-site loser and a time-out draw.

Outside losing is the same rule, losing if you fall out of a stadium that is about ten meters high on one side. This made it possible for non-powerful people to win if they stood up well at the edge of the area. The range of tactics will be wider and more interesting.

The time-out draw is to draw lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery lottery Luck is a strength, isn't it?

About a dozen participants are gathered on one side of the stadium. Each distanced himself from his thoughts - the bronze clatter rang loudly. Finally, the game begins.

◇

It was a lottery draw from the first match. There was only one big guy in the first group who was proud of his strength, and he threw the other participants out one after the other, but the last one was very ruthless and ran out of time. In the end, in the lottery, the big man drew the winner to the finals. I'm glad it wasn't a waste of effort.

The second and third groups were in order, and a man of good physical fitness and strength prevailed. The third group of winners was heavyweight, and the main way to win was to push and protrude off-site, so I remembered the sumo wrestling a little bit and missed it. Get out of here.

The fourth group, unlike before, was won by a skinny, tall man. He stood at the edge of the arena from the beginning and threw the opponent out of the arena. You're a skilled man. Long hands and feet make it difficult to get close. We need to check.

And the fifth.

There are more women here.

"Straight black hair is unusual. Where did he come from?

"Don't change your clothes. Samantha, you look like you're wearing a slim sleeve."

"Ah, put on your sandals. Can you move like that to fight now?

……

Shit. That girl is definitely Japanese. The sandals at my feet are grass shoes. Could it be the third reincarnation? Actually, it seems to be a memory transplant rather than a reincarnation, but I don't really know the difference, so I think it's okay to reincarnate.

But I don't think it's modern. In modern Japan, women wear small sleeves and tuxedos at an adult ceremony. Besides, you won't be wearing such plain well shaped sleeves at the adult ceremony. I'm a little grasshopped.

Standing in the corner of the stage, the daughter looks at us with a glimpse. Hmm, did they catch you? What are you doing to yourself?

"Sister"

Sarasa, who was standing behind me, groaned. Sister?

Then the bronze bell rang at the start of the fifth match.
