I Was a Sword When I Reincarnated (WN)

The first qualifying round of the militant tournament was also the Battle Royal this year.

About five or six players will be matched as a pair, and one survivor will move on. Exactly like last year.

The muddling between the miscellaneous fish is boring, but some of them have a mix of powerful people. Other games, such as the one in which someone I know is competing, looked quite promising.

That's why in Barbora, the three daughters of the Scarlet Maiden, who acted as a seller, and so on, each worked hard.

You've grown quite a bit since last year. I guess I trained pretty seriously this year. Skills are also growing.

But still, I couldn't break through the qualifying round.

They are more of a collaborative type than individual combatants. Besides, it's a party that specializes in dungeons and outdoor fighting.

Before that, Maia, a bandit, Lydia, a sorcerer, was not suitable for militant competitions. In the end, he had been simultaneously targeted by his surroundings as the most powerful and had been defeated at all costs.

He also had a bad opponent when it came to leader and swordsman Judith.

He was one of Demitris' disciples. Even though I'm still a trainee, it would be rank C equivalent in strength.

He's the one with the eyes on the hilt.

I heard from Corberto about the Demitris stream, but it seems almost Hilt's role to coach the gatekeepers.

Originally, Demitris is not so committed to leaving the Demitris stream he has created, with his training first.

Still, there are disciples, and the dojo is everywhere, because those who wish to be apprenticed to Demitris never cease to follow.

At first, it seems that adventurers who admired Demitris were just learning the basics of fighting between adventures and outdoors.

In doing so, Demitris himself was somewhat interested in developing his disciples, with more gatekeepers in the genre, and only at a time did he become an avenue with more than 100 total gatekeepers.

No, not much for a combined number of freshly introduced practitioners? If that's what you think, they're too strict for the training to be unusual. Because of that, they say the majority of the people who come in quit.

Well, with the Rank S Adventurer sign, it wouldn't be strange to have more than 1000 gatekeepers.

And if we can continue our training without frustration and become high brothers, we can get Demitris to do the archery straight away. It's just that Sparta to awesomeness breaks many disciples' hearts there again.

That's what's left of it, Colbert, and Hilt.

Moreover, even a man as powerful as Colbert is treated as a high brother, not a teacher.

The strength of the Hilts Normal, who broke through the trials, would come with origami.

In fact, they say only three Norms have been born since the promotion trials to the Norms became what they are today.

Well, it's about sealing your abilities and becoming a Rank A Adventurer. Yes, there must be nothing that can break through that way.

"Sister, do you know anyone who just lost?

"Mm. Barbora Adventurer"

I hear Fran was rooting for Judith, too. I lost and there was an accidental "uh" voice. Apparently Caitley didn't miss hearing that.

"Really? Sorry to hear that."

"... sorry"

"Why would Nilfe apologize?

"Because you are my grandfather's apprentice..."

Nilfe lowers her head with a crying face, but Fran makes it stop.

"Nilfe has nothing to do with it. Problems Just For Them"

"Really?

"Mmm."

"... thank you"

Nilfe smiles in a hospitable manner. Fran doesn't quite understand, but he seemed to have had a lot of difficulty before.

It would be noticeable just because of the celebrity's blood muscles, and there must be times when they complain irrationally.

Especially the type like Demitris who doesn't hide his sidelines, it's not strange that people are buying grudges. Sometimes you can hit that grudge just because you're a grandson. It shouldn't have been once or twice that I had a hard time seeing that words of apology would soon come out in a situation like now.

Ma'am, this way.

"Thank you, Michael"

Michael offers a gentle handkerchief against the tearful Nilfe. It's a man you can do, Michael. You're not just strong!

It's just that Fran is on guard with Michael. Thanks, I look at you sometimes. Maybe he has the Corbelt thing at his root, just like Hilt.

I didn't feel any strong hostility, but I was observing this one with a cautious eye. It is an eye that explores weaknesses and gaps. Before this, I couldn't say I was distracted.

"Ah! Sister! That one, he was in the main game last year, wasn't he!

"Mm. Charlotte"

Charlotte seems to be competing this year. The Adventurer Rank is no different from the Judiths, but her style of combat is more suitable for militant competitions than for Lydia and Maia. Shouldn't we be getting to a good place again this year?

Even now, on the arena, no one can capture her dance-like movements and she is defeated one after the other. Plus, I tried to appraise him, and he was a lot stronger than last year.

The same is true of rising levels, but also of changing professions. I should have been a war dancer until last year, but now I'm a war dancer. Inherent skills were complemented by a dance of coma, and he even acquired the skill of softness.

I lost last year to Elsa for lack of offense. It seems that we have also taken measures to do so this year.

In the meantime, would you like to go comfort the Scarlet Maiden? He was confident this year, and he's been crying a little since he lost.

And then I also want to say hello to Charlotte.

Well, what contestants will you meet this year?
