He won the Martial Arts Martial Arts Association.

After all, I used all my magic, and at the end of the day I called Shiloh, the Divine Beast, to defeat Leo two to one, but the venue was very exciting.

I was half forced to convince myself that the Beasts would be something like that because I had heard that if they could see the reward for a high level of attack, that would be the only thing that would make my mind jump.

Well, Leo split up into eight and attacked me. For instance, I beat Leo on two to eight with Shilo. I didn't cheat so much--I decided to think so.

Suddenly, the wind swirled right next to me and a martial arts god appeared.

The appearance of the Martial God makes the venue that was boiling quieter in an instant.

"Exotic, well done. You are a strong man of true (...) intent (...) flavor (...), and you have shown your martial arts here"

The true meaning of Wushu would be to use magic or anything to be strong.

"Your martial arts, this martial arts god only saw it. From now on, until the day you lose to someone, name the strongest here in Bestier."

The proclamation of the martial arts led to a cheer that just rocked the circular arena. All the beasts recognized me as the best (...) strong (...) because the gods of martial arts believed in me.

"But I didn't mean to follow Master Fenrill..."

Boso shrugged the Martial God.

The venue is cheering, so I'm the only one on the side who could hear it.

Though Wushu is now a pillar of God, he used to be just a beast man and one of the family members of the divine beast Fenrir. That's why I was surprised how Shiro missed me.

I just fed it.

When Leo fell outside the arena, he immediately returned to his smaller figure and climbed into a fixed position (above my shoulder).

"Hart, it's a promise. You're gonna have Tina make you a curry when you get home."

"Oh, I know"

I had that conversation with Shilo and it made a little noise under the fighting table. Looks like Leo's up.

The medical team hastily tries to hold back, but refuses to do so and Leo comes up to the top of the fighting bench.

"Lord Hurt... it's a complete defeat. The last move was incredibly powerful."

No, I think it's outrageous that you, too, can get up so quickly with eight of those incredibly powerful flying fists...

"No, I was surprised by you, too."

I offered Leo my hand while I said that.

Leo responded by shaking my hand.

As soon as you touch your hand, keep your heels on.

"Oh, my goodness."

Leo's damage is completely gone.

The chest wound I slashed in the hegemony is gone beautifully, too.

Leo bowed his head against the Martial God.

"I, who was entrusted with the king of beasts, showed you an unusual appearance in front of the gods of martial arts. I'm sorry."

"Never mind. The opponent is stupid enough to follow Master Fenrill. Honestly, I'm suspicious I can win, too. You did well, it was a brilliant fight."

"Well, that's... unbearable words"

That's what I said. Leo's face, who looked at me chilly, was cramped.

No, no, that's just it. He said he still can't beat God!

I also want Wushu to put himself in front of me and stop calling me a bucket.

"Well, it's time to tighten it"

That's what Wushu breathed in.

"Everybody, listen up!

The boiling venue became quiet with a loud voice from the Martial God. I was a little surprised, too.

"Better than this, Hart, the militant champion, conveys what he wants! Everybody, do whatever you can to make that wish come true."

What!?

Feels like saying it yourself?

No, I just can't say 'I want the right to touch Meldy's meatballs all I want' to this big audience...

"Come on, Hart, say what you want. Then you also have the right to be king of this country, but tell me what you're going to do with it."

Yes, the martial arts urged me.

... I have no choice. Let's brace our bellies.

I made a decision.

And activate wind magic so that your words sound all over the venue. Because I'm not sure I can shout like a martial arts god.

"Thank you all beastmen for your great cheer. This time, I won the Martial Arts Martial Arts Association, but I'm just a kid, and I don't think I can run the country. So I won't be king of this country"

In my proclamation, a discouraged voice rises from the venue.

"I'm not going to be king, but I'm going to let you claim ownership of this country. And at that price, I'll shake off all the calamities I'm going to visit this country in the future!

I want national ownership because if I walk through Bestier and find a beast man who seems comfortable to touch, I want him to be too.

Of course, I don't impose.

I think it's lame at the same time.

But the beasts here seemed happy.

"The king of this country wants to continue, leaving it to Leo. Leo, can you do it?

"I'll take care of it"

Leo knelt down before me.

At about the same time, I get a cheer that just doesn't crack from the venue.

After all, Leo was admired by the people as king.

With more beastmen who can also use magic in the future, Bestier will become an increasingly powerful country.

Because the top (king) is the wise one anyway.

"One more thing I want to say to you all"

In response to my words, the venue quieted down again.

"Meldy, come"

"Ha, yes!

Meldy had passed out because of the damage he had taken against Leo, but now he was recovering and watching me and Leo play in the audience with the Tinas.

The Merdy jumped out of the audience and came to me.

"I will receive Meldy, the princess of this country, as a reward for winning the Martial Arts Martial Arts Association. Whoever has a complaint, come out here now."

The venue was surrounded by silence.

Nobody tries to come out.

View Meldy next door.

His face was bright red and he was leaning down, but his tail was standing upright pinned.

Then, when I saw Leo, her father, Leo smiled and nodded with satisfaction.

"No one's complaining, is there?

Check again.

The venue remained quiet.

"Meldy, okay?

"Heh, I'm a bummer, thank you."

Looks like Meldy's good too.

I held Meldy's shoulder.

"Okay, I'll get Meldy."

Three times, a loud cheer echoes into the venue.

Probably the best cheer of the day.

─ ─ Thus, when I was twelve years old, I got the princess of the Beast Nation and the first kingdom.
