Finally, our qualifying match was about to end. All matches have been won so far. Again, the biggest obstacle seemed to be the team: Hartnet, and the rest of the game was able to go smoothly.

Instead of playing games that make them look like the first game, they just stick to winning hard. Worst of all, victory is victory, even if it's a point away.

We were on our way to the final round of qualifying while maintaining our safety margin.

"Ariane! Cover it!!

"Okay. Wow!

Last offense at base five. If we run out of points here, this game is over.

The opponent seems to know that, and they attack it resolutely. No, that was no longer an attack equal to abandonment.

He exercises sorcery without suppressing it and without thinking about the rest.

Our team is already more than two places confirmed. For that reason, there is no problem in letting this game fall on the assumption. On the other hand, if the other team loses here, the qualifying loss is confirmed.

It would be natural that the victory now in front of us is more important than thinking about later.

And the onslaught, with Ariane, is carried on the front line.

The opponent is a team of magical subjects. As a result, I buy time while cutting rays well in the trees.

Amelia's been magically supportive from the base, but it's still no different to dealing with the three of us in front of her.

"... you've really grown"

With Bosoli, but I say that in the middle of the game.

I support Ariane from behind. This game was originally decided to fight with Ariane as the spindle.

There are aspects of that to gain experience, but on the other hand, it also means hiding my power.

For better or worse, apparently our team is marked.

It's obvious because the passing of the main game has been confirmed, but to the point of being said to be a winning candidate among them, the team: Olgren represents its headline.

Team: Forst and Team: Olgren.

It was in my ear to be whispered that those two teams would be the winning candidates

That's how time passes and the sound of a loud siren echoes through the woods.

"The winner is Team: Olgren"

When I heard that announcement, and Ariane, with her face broken, ran to me, she held me as she was.

When she takes it firmly, she speaks up happily.

"Yay! I did it. Wow! We won!

"Oh. Right."

"Plus, it's a total win. Wow! We are amazing!

"Our teamwork has reached a pretty high standard. Naturally."

"Ray! I really did it. Hey!

and Amelia comes from behind when the two of us are happy with the outcome of the game.

"... Ariane. I know you're happy, but aren't you hugging Ray too much?

Rin's voice enters our ears. Then Ariane dyes her face bright red and quickly leaves Ba and me.

"Ahhh! I'm sorry, too. I was so impressed..."

"... Huh. I don't know how you feel, but I don't."

That's how we pair Amelia's fists with a knack.

"You did it. Ray."

"As per target, you won all fights."

"Yep. I had some anxiety before it started, but this is how you managed to achieve it."

"Oh. Nevertheless, Amelia has improved her witchcraft accuracy considerably"

"Really?"

"Definitely"

"Eh heh. I'm a little glad you said that..."

Amelia is happy, but it's never flattering.

Perhaps the overall magic skill is improved when controlling the causal butterflies (butterfly effects).

Causal butterflies (butterfly effects) require the construction of precision codes within vast areas of magic.

A huge magical realm that I have innate. And an acquired technique of precision code building.

Until now, I guess I haven't been able to take full advantage of that magical realm.

But now, he exercises witchcraft with a solid performance of it.

Amelia herself doesn't seem to be pinning, but her growth is remarkable.

"Ariane's getting better together, too. It goes perfectly with me."

"Perfect compatibility!!?

"? Throughout all the games I've played, I thought so."

"Ah... you mean the game. Of course it is.

With that big chest up, Ariane raises her voice softly.

Ariane was also growing throughout the game. Above all, we are able to watch the situation overlooking.

Take a look at me and Amelia's position and see how I should stand around. Besides, it also improves basic magic skills.

I'm really glad the experience of continuing to fight me on the front line seems to be coming alive.

"Finally, the main battle."

"That's right."

"Main battle... it's a siege battle, isn't it? Besides, we don't seem to have much time to rest, and it's going to be a tough fight."

"That's right. I'll be on vacation for about two days, but there's a game from there to the final all at once, nonstop. Let's get some rest here."

"Okay. Wow!

"Right."

This is how our qualifiers closed the curtain in the form of a successful all-win.

"Hey, you're kind of nervous..."

"? You got something?

"Yes, what! It's nothing.

Currently, the two of us come to a restaurant in the Central District. The truth is, while the three of us, including Amelia, even took it for dinner, we were going to have a meeting about the next game, but they got some sudden errands in.

Amelia seems to be having a tough time, too, because of the three noble ladies.

Ariane, on the other hand, had no business, so she had no choice but to come alone.

And now the two of us are looking back at the games we've had as we tongue drum on the steak.

"Nevertheless, everything was exactly what Ray expected."

"Rough predictions can be judged by the overall strength of the other team."

"Is that, too, an old experience?

"Right. As a soldier, I fought mainly on the front lines, but Carol and Mr. Abby. Besides, my master told me to keep the minimum knowledge because I would fight on the front lines."

"... I don't know, I don't think Ray's knowledge is minimal. Well, now you are."

Ariane sighs lightly, ha. I'm also getting a little used to this reaction of hers.

Apparently, you think I have an insane side, and you're like, "I'll tell you exactly what I'm talking about. Wow! He was saying," Oh, my God.

Think of it, Ariane is good looking after Miss Tiana's sister.

He's done a lot to convince Amelia to waste time and put this team together. "Absolutely not without me, Ray. Hey!" It's new to memory that he also said.

"I wonder what the main battle will be like."

"Perhaps it will be a tougher fight than qualifying. The strength of the opponent team will also be different digits, but above all it is a game played within an overcrowded schedule. Besides, the siege is a long game. Unlike fighting in the Kafka Forest, you will also need to get used to the way the ancient castle fought"

"Does Ray have experience?

"No, you don't have a fight in the castle. There was a lot of guerrilla warfare in magic. But we can do it."

I laugh niggly. It was a natural thing, spinning all sorts of ploys around the brain.

Seeing it, Ariane takes her hand to her mouth and laughs lightly.

"Hehe. It's funny how Ray laughs over and over again."

"Really?

"Yep. You look very strange now, even though you usually settle down, don't you?

"Weird face, huh? Maybe it's odd."

"But..."

After a while, she put it into words like this, staring into my eyes.

"Ray laughing is so charming."

I felt that the voice color was only slightly different from what I had heard before. Ariane's expression is also unusual.

But it's so beautiful.

I sincerely thought so.

"Right, I'm afraid. But Ariane is also an attractive woman."

"Ugh! Don't always say the same thing!

And I raise my voice in protest, but that seemed somewhere delightful.

That's how we spent our little time together.
