Mob, if I were a high school student, could I be an adventurer, too, Leah?
Episode XIX: I decided to be so resented...?
"Come on, WWI, WWVI. The first step is the admission of the athlete!
The announcement prompted me and the dazzling lights greeted me as I walked through the gate.
The Roman circular arena conscious interior gave the impression that it was indeed a slaughter when I stood up. The smell of dirt and dust claps at it.
The audience had the audience that won the viewing ticket without gaps, and I couldn't find it, but some of them were my family.
A few seconds behind my entrance, Nanshan shows up. He was staring at me with an awesome face.
Seriously, the South Mountain is coming out. He didn't even let you do that every time.
"What a classmate the next two go to the same high school with each other! Usually two people studying side by side at their desks have been forced into battle by the mischief of fate. The commentary, Mr. Reino, was also present at these two adventurer registrations. '
Unexpectedly see live seats in the announcer's voice. Oh, Mr. Reino? What's that guy doing?
"Well, I'm impressed with you two."
"Well, did you get the impression of Mr. Reino, a former self-defense officer and a track record of breaking the B-rank Labyrinth? What's that like?
"Nanshan-kun is solid, Kitakawa, you got the impression that you like to play hard."
"Well, my name is Buddha Lover?
'Um, I can't tell you the details, but it feels like you said you have the strength of willingness to throw everything away if it's for a goal. I remember very well because this type of hand is the choice between disappearing early or going up and down at an overwhelming speed'
"Well, according to the information, Nanshan-kun has been an adventurer for over six months and a one-star adventurer, while Kitakawa has already become a two-star adventurer despite about two months."
"Two stars are pretty fast in two months."
"I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of battle the two contrasting
... you're wasting your personal information. Exactly, I didn't seem to fall apart until I suddenly hit the beat of buying a pack.
But I didn't know Mr. Reino was a former self-defense officer. Well, isn't it surprising if you think about it?
In the Alliance, I hear you are actively recruiting former adventurers. No wonder a retired high-ranking adventurer becomes an employee of the Alliance in search of stability. No matter how much money you have, Japan is tough on young unemployed. In that regard, the title of official is not reassuring.
The strange thing is that Mr. Reino is called here... well, I don't care. I guess it's usual for a former adventurer to be called in for a commentary.
Better than that. This announcer was forced to fight by fate's mischief. Though I would have planted it as much as I wanted. What are your chances of suddenly hitting acquaintances in the first round?
But, well, fine. Even for me, I'm certain I wanted to settle with Nanshan somewhere in my mind.
The words Nanshan once unleashed on us still remain as lumps in our hearts.
He seemed to have something to think of me, and our tension grew accelerating.
'Now, let the game begin!
At the same time the bell rang, we called the cards.
"Summon both at the same time! Kitakawa told Ghuller and Xandman... oh, you can't see the hell out of him anymore '
"Apparently you're hiding with your skills"
"Meanwhile, the South Mountain player's monster looks like a bore oak and two high cobolts"
I smashed my tongue when I saw the called monsters of South Mountain, especially the pig-headed Beast Man.
Shit, it's a growth party.
Bore oaks and high cobolts have the ability to call lower races every certain amount of time. With the same abilities as the water tigers we fought before, the strength is that the integrated abilities fall but the quality can be filled with numbers.
There are two ways to deal with it. Stick it until the opponent's summons limit comes... or put Keri on fast.
I choose, naturally, the latter!
"You guys, it's a summons!
"Xandman!"
Orders are simultaneous. On the verge of three enemy cards raising the howl of summons, the sand of Xandman's sleep was scattered all around him.
Bore oak rocked his upper body only for a moment, but Resist. But Heikovolt fell and fell.
"Hey, High Cobolt!?
"Ooh, Kitakawa's abnormal state magic bursts in response to Namsan's family summons! I dropped two high cobolts to sleep!
'Xandman is acting fast, isn't he? Are you a good supplier or some kind of skill'
'But the boreal oak resisted and called the orc the hell out. The Heikovolts will wake up easily if you tap them too. Come on, what are we gonna do!
To the voice of the announcement, South Mountain gives instructions as to whether it has noticed it too.
"Wake up Heikovolt now!
Plus, the oak called Bore Oak is headed to wake up the high cobolt, but it's too late.
Eliza was already approaching the orcs.
Keep up the momentum of the disease and kick the oak. In a weakened family orc, he couldn't have withstood the blow of a kansted gooler, wiping out blood reflexes with a scattered shot.
As it were, Eliza approached the boreal oak.
"Kitakawa, your gooler was summoned in one blow. Kicked and killed the orc! Awesome power! '
'Oh, that gooler is well planted. The junior undead is difficult to cultivate, but brilliant. But Bore Oak has more initial combat power than Gooler. What happens'
Bore oak set up an iron axe for the impending Eliza. That axe...... you're not bringing it in. I've had it since I showed up. Initial gear for bore oak, then. I mean, there are no special effects.
The two go in time. It was the boreal oak that set me up first. Swing down taking advantage of the difference in reach. In contrast, Eliza kicked the back of Bore Oak's knee as she entered Bore Oak's pocket in a slippery motion. Gakuri, and to the disfigured boreal oak, she swung her legs up to heaven and fell on her heels. A foot knife slammed to the thick nose slammed its giant to the ground with the momentum intact.
"Gooler, destroy the bore oak with a flowing motion! Strong, and gorgeous! Mr. Reino, I haven't seen many adventurers use gools, but are they stronger cards than this?
'No, Gooler is the weakest card in the D-rank card. Initial combat is low and you can't make complicated moves because of your lack of self. But now Gooler's movements were on par with biological humans, no more smooth than that. This is obviously a correction by skill. On top of that, that series of moves was clearly planted. There were no orders! I've never seen a ghoul trained so far!
"Mr. Reino greatly admires you! Has this been settled early? But there's still two high cobolts left, no, wait! Heikovolt's disappearing! When the hell! '
'That black one... right, Nightmare. Perhaps he was possessed at the same time as Heikovolt fell asleep'
"I thought you couldn't see Kitakawa's third monster, but I see, you were a nightmare"
"Fall asleep fast in Xandman. While I'm buying time in the gooler, Nightmare starts and ends Heikobolt. This must have been your operation in Kitagawa."
South Mountain hates and cares about me when I hear the live narrative.
"Kitakawa ah......!
…………………………
In contrast, I silently give the following instructions. The battle is over. But if I told you to surrender here, you wouldn't listen to Nanshan.
Hence.
"Eliza."
She responded precisely to the short instructions just to call my name.
Quickly away from the boreal oak I was holding down with my legs and head to South Mountain.
quicker than the boreal oak got up, knocking a blow in.
"Hih...!
A translucent wall appears around South Mountain that crouches to shelter its head. This is a defensive magic item distributed to all athletes. After a moment of resistance, the walls were crushed to the wood end fine dust.
Mine, win.
... To be honest, I could also have lost the bore oak like that. But that's too much for anything. Nanshan is a classmate even if he is no longer a friend. I don't hate you enough to break a card. Direct Attack was my mercy.
"Vote - Dressed! The battle between classmates ended in a victory for Kitagawa-kun! Both cards are ranked D, E and E. But when it was over, Kitagawa was under the impression that you had won with Sulu."
'Right, is it that there was still a huge difference in experience? The Nightmare combo, the Xandman you showed me, is what I see once in a while as I dive through the E-rank Labyrinth. A combination that risks devastation even at parties, including D-rank cards, a careful combination for beginners. The career is long. The one-star adventurer Nanyama doesn't know that, on the contrary, the career is short, but you know the E-rank Labyrinth, Kitagawa. You knew that. I guess that's what divided the wins and losses.'
'I see, you've lost, but give a round of applause to the well-fought Nanyama!
As the venue gave me a sparse round of applause, I watched the leaning South Mountain.
Honestly, it was my fake thought that I clapped it out...
The shock ran when the opponent found out it was South Mountain. It's not weird that you're using your cards more than me because you're doing it more than six months faster than me.
I sincerely regretted not registering as a best member, and I was anxious to see a party made up of more quantities of concept than two high cobolts on bore oak, and you meant it.
In fact, it would have sucked pretty bad if the whole party had tolerance to state anomalies. I've been watching my hand for a long time that I might be using demonic props to cure state abnormalities.
But I was the one who won. An extra victory if you finish it. As Mr. Reino said, it was the decision to win or lose that Namsan did not know about the fear of an abnormal state.
I mean, I won with my arms as a master.
If this had been the strongest member to add Lianhua or Yuki, I wouldn't have thought so.
Cards don't change that they're my power either. But somewhere in my mind I should have thought I'd beaten you by a difference in rank.
But I won the same combination of D, E and E as Nanshan. We won on mutual terms.
At the end of the day, I guess that means that as an adventurer, I was working harder.
I've been diving into the labyrinth every day since I became an adventurer. Nanshan played like every day with the guys in his class. Diving into the labyrinth is about a few times a month. I knew that from class conversations and posts on SNS.
After the last twenty days, Nanshan looked at me desperately scratching his feet and made a fool of himself.
That divided the victories and losses.
"............... shit, shit!
Nanshan was crying. Did you regret losing to me for looking down? Do you regret that you should have tried harder? Or both.
Either way, I don't know what it really feels like.... because we are no longer friends.
I had a little respect for South Mountain. Even though he only had the same mobcharacter qualities as me, he had respect for the guy who joined the rear charging group.
And I was more jealous than that.
If he can do it, I can do it. That was the driving force.
But not now.
I'm not jealous anymore. Because I felt like I was trying harder.
"... then, South Mountain. See you at school."
That's what I say, turn your back.
".............................."
……
I felt slightly said something and turned around.
That moment.
"I'm kidding! Mob characters like you! How dare you! I am! I'm not like you guys!
Oh, hey, every what!?
Suddenly I freaked out for real. The appearance of Nanshan sneezing his face with snot and covetousness, running his eyes blood, protruding his teeth, and waking hysteria with a strangely tall voice had the fear of surpassing the horror there.
"Mi, Minamiya..."
"Boao Wok!"
"Become!?
A boreal oak responding to the outrage of Nanshan jumps up on his body and rushes to me with four legs.
- Oh, shit, yeah.
The moment I thought so interruptedly with a confused head.
There was a golden shadow that ran in an instant.
It's Eliza. She rushed me with her skills to take refuge.
Thunk...... My chest is pounding. I'm gonna fall in love with you like this. That's right, my party's golden shield, Eliza in trouble or something!
Elsewhere, Eliza acts reasonably like a heroine in a girl comic strip.
She kicked me to push the head of the advancing bore oak as she pushed me with one hand. Strongly twisted with a vector so powerful that the kicking leg became gushagusha, the bore oak buried its head deep into the ground.
Before I pull my head off the ground, Mr. Eliza's pursuit just goes in. He hugged his defenseless back and bit his neck off a thousand times.
The bloodshed rises. He holds down the body of the boar oak that goes around him and chews off his neck twice and three times.
Dokin! My breasts are pounding. Now it's not Tokimuki, it's a heartbeat of fear for horror cinematic sights. I'm never used to the violent side of Mr. Eliza showing up from time to time.
Eventually, the bore oak movement weakened...... and disappeared.
Silence falls on the venue.
Eliza raised her face and asked me.
"Master, are you all right?
"Oh, oh."
The moment I managed to snort.
'Ah, hey...! Stuff! Hurry up and grab it!
Blinking is revived from the venue with the announcer's hurried voice. At the same time, the staff and guards came and seized the South Mountain. I'm protected from being taken away, too.
As he was pulled down to the athletes' aisle, he was taken in by the show's staff.
I blurred when I saw their faces that were obviously more tempered than mine, even as I said things that worried me with my mouth.
… can this continue the tournament?
