I Was a Sword When I Reincarnated (WN)

Today is the date of the second qualifying round.

Unlike the smaller training ground in the primary qualifying round, the place seems to use a fairly large arena.

The number of participants who had more than 1000 in the first qualifying round has also decreased to about 240 in the second round. There will be a further 48 fewer people from here.

In the second qualifying round, they split the participants in half and fight in two venues. Besides, the audience enters from the second qualifying round. Unlike the one-on-one battle of the final tournament, the Battle Royal in the Five seems quite popular once again when it's different and powerful.

In addition, bets will be made from the second qualifying round. Although it is forbidden for participants to bet to prevent the eight hundred. Too bad. He also seems to be extremely sentenced if eight hundred men are discovered.

The shadow of a criminal organization behind a bet that it's Earth, but there won't be much to worry about at Ulmut's martial arts tournament. Diaz seems to be tightening up the area.

Besides, it's the Adventurer Guild that has the most force, power, and the ability to work shadows like scouts and bandits.

In tissue with some hand work, it can be destroyed in no time. A small number of people would be able to hide, but a big conspiracy to manipulate bets would not be possible.

"Well, let's go."

"Mmm."

I still have time for Fran to start the game, but he needs to get in the venue early. I plan to wait in the holding room for about half an hour.

Even on this day, Fran didn't look particularly nervous, he was the usual Fran.

I have a little time before the game today. Head to the arena while buying and eating at an outdoor store.

"Today's venue is huge."

"Mmm."

What I see is a cylindrical building that looks just like the Colosseum. Well, I've never seen it in person. From a distance alone, I can see you're surrounded by considerable enthusiasm. Sometimes I hear a cheer called Wor would be proof that the game is booming.

Fran went through the athlete's entrance behind the arena and headed to the holding room. The reception is solid today and nothing can stop it.

Upon entering the holding room, the gaze of the contestants who were inside stabbed Fran simultaneously. Surprise, insult, confusion. Little favorable gaze, but Fran sits in a nearby chair without worrying. It's a familiar gaze for Fran.

There were five compartments where players from the same game could not face each other. So the players in this room are not the enemy of the moment. Besides, private fights in the holding room are supposedly prohibited...

"Hey, this isn't where the kid's coming from!

Well, there's this guy, isn't there? If you think about it a little bit, you're breaking through the first qualifying round, so you're not just a kid as you look.

A man with a humble expression came all the way up and approached me. It's forbidden to fight privately, and I don't know what to do. Normally, I would pay a visit and shut him up.

If I was lost, Fran activated an intimidating skill. At that moment, a tremendous sense of oppression surrounds the room. Yes, it wrapped up the whole room.

"Fran, it's too much."

"Hmm?"

Instead of a man, even the other participants are sitting on their hips and putting their hands on weapons. That blue face tells the story of their shock.

This is just the aftermath, the man who was closing in on Fran was sitting on the spot with his hips out. I trembled in fear, and now I'm going to faint.

"Mmm."

"Hino..."

Fran just turns his gaze and tries to back off with a chill.

Well, it's good to be quiet. The other participants - I'm sorry.

When Fran lifted the intimidation and lowered her head towards the perimeter, she finally relieved the tension. But the faces of the participants remain precarious. Seeing Fran's threat, they noticed their lack of strength. I knew it was too much.

Everyone in the room is silent and the cheer heard from the outside is strangely distant. Fran. Don't be able to sit in a chair with a face that doesn't eat in an atmospheric room like this often! Besides, I'm drinking the juice I took out of dimensional storage!

What broke such worst air was the shadow of a new entrance into the holding room.

"Oh? Isn't that the Devil's Sword girl there?

"Hmm? Lydia?

"Long time no see. I didn't know you were in the tournament, too."

That was Lydia, an adventurer girl I met in Barbora. We should have had a threesome party called Scarlet Maiden, but are we all in? You're the same faceless character.

"What about Judith and Maia?

"We're both in. Maia is a different venue, but Judith should be in the other holding room. And it helped."

"Hmm?"

"I didn't have to hit you."

Lydia sees Fran's strength in Barbora. That's what I'm saying and exhaling relief.

"The goal is to compete in the war."

"Aren't you the winner?

"No, I'm good enough. It's a tournament in which both Mr. Corbert and Lady Fauld are taking part, and I can't say it's a rip-off from winning. Well, it's a kind of foiling. Don't let them lick you because you're a woman."

Is that what some of them are for? Well, if it comes to breaking through the qualifying round at a tournament of this magnitude, it could certainly be foiled. But before that, I had a name I couldn't miss.

"Is Corberto and Falund here, too?

Another super powerful rival.

"Yeah - don't laugh with a scary face!

Uh, did Fran's Battle Junkie soul catch fire? He has a belligerent look on his face and laughs happily.

"Oh, and congratulations on ranking up. Is it C already? Amazing."

"Thanks."

"If you hit it in the main battle, please be nice. Please don't let me get hurt, okay?

"Mmm."

"Absolutely, isn't it? You'd be mad if you did something terrible, wouldn't you?

I don't know if you're weak or strong. That's how, chatting with Lydia, it immediately became Fran's turn.

Proceed through the narrow passage indicated to the attendant. After walking for a dozen meters or so, I saw a strong light plugged in. Beyond that light would be the playing field.

"Fran, are you ready?

"Mmm."

'It is one hand to say that we deliberately lose here and divert the interest of the Beast King. If you want to say more, you can abstain now'

"Don't"

"It may catch the eye of the Beast King. That's good, huh?

"Mmm!"

It broke my heart just to put the Beast King in front of me. Even then, I was trembling with fear. You might be able to look at someone like that.

Still, Fran didn't seem to intend to abstain. If it was before Diaz told me about Chiara, I might have had that option. But he just couldn't seem to get away with wrapping his tail around it without showing his will as a Black Cat clan for Fran today.

"Well, if you're going to deal with the worst Beast King, let's do what we want. If you get caught in the eye, you just have to keep running away with dimensional magic. There's also a hand in using anything on a ship to escape to other continents. I'll take care of it then."

"Thanks."

First of all, that's the second qualifying round in front of you.

'I'm not saying anything anymore! Do your best!'

"Mmm!"
