218 ◇ Qualifying for the Lemmes

"Come on, come on. It's done. All Heaven Festival Competition Qualifying! This will be Preliminary Venue XII! As you know, this battle to determine the strongest in the world, we are the brave warriors who are united from all over the continent! but! unfortunately all those who wish to participate will not come to terms with the legend! So let's set up a qualifying round and reduce that number first!

"Live."

It was the battlefield, no - not only the competitive stage, that was set up within the 'Primary/Beginning Dungeon'.

There are even spectator seats and multiple giant screens available.

A shaped spectator seat that circles the stage where the battle takes place and four screens.

The screen is split and shows multiple locations of footage.

Depending on the circumstances of the war, the size of each video or screen seems to change.

Since her initial contract with the dungeon, Mr. Fellow has proceeded with negotiations in the same direction of lending, not acquisition, and has succeeded in renting ample magic space to host the festival.

Managers of dungeons dotted around the world are also grateful for sources of income that do not rely on attackers. If you're not deprived of a whole workplace, it's a nod story to get more responders.

I'm waiting for my entrance with the party members now.

"Well, today is the first day of qualifying taking place across the continent! Ladies and gentlemen, we won't be familiar with the rules yet, so let me explain it to you thoroughly!

There are two of us, one being a Minotaur man and the other a human (normal) woman.

The voice of a human (normal) woman echoes as she carries on the words of Mr. Minotaur, who has spoken so far.

"The rules are super easy! It's about defeating enemies and earning points. The festival is a five-person participation - so the sum of points to be allocated is the same for all parties! Ten points each is fifty points for five!

'There are hundreds of parties gathered in one venue, so the total number of points is five thousand! It's over when it's going to be the last party or the time limit! If you survive, the first assigned points can also be counted in the score, so if you destroy all enemies with just one party, for example, it will be a total of 5,000 points! I don't know if that's just possible!

"Haha, hey! But a hundred parties means... uh, five hundred, right? Aren't there too many? The field is super wide, so I guess there's no problem with the capability. Customers are going to be confused about who to look at if there are so many - '

A dungeon attack doesn't take the form of a lot of demons coming out in the same space at once, or even in that case, five hundred people just aren't there.

Besides, unlike a dungeon offense where you just need to concentrate on the basic five brave parties, this time each of the hundred parties five hundred is an athlete and he's the star.

"Around it, it still initially shows up on the screen, mainly the famous people. You can enjoy the intensity of the battle, close to the audience, as flashy battles are expected, or you may want to focus on the giant screen for a while if you are looking to have a popular party active. Of course, a dream situation could come true where a push party fights in front of you!

"Ugh, once the entrance to the party is announced at the time of booking the ticket, guests who have secured their intended seats will be able to view the presumed entrance nearby. But even though I can't help it, there's a famous place that feels privileged. Can't do anything about it?

"There is also a screen available to show the war situation at random for once...... Hmm, if you want to be noticed, you're going for giant killings, or you're going to show results in the tunnel. '

If you want to show the famous as a priority, you can fight that party. Naturally, if you win, you stand out.

'Whoa, the result?

"This time we will do a gradual point tally and announce each party with the highest points earned. Of course I'm in the middle of a fight. If we get results here, we won't be able to treat Mob either."

It would mean, for example, announcing something that is ranked five minutes from the start and points at a sufficient point.

Famous anonymity has nothing to do with this. The name of the party that defeated more players is inscribed.

"Mmm! I see -! When you do, the first time you're flying, there's a chance other parties will find out and target you!

"Yep. The total number of points you can earn will decrease by one moment. Assuming there's a party where you earn a thousand points, and you wipe it out, all you get is fifty points and you're fixed. '

Defeating another player won't take away his points.

"That pattern means that the record of that party, which was wiped out, stops at a thousand points."

If everyone survives with a thousand points earned and reaches the time limit, that means that 50 more points for their party will be added.

Conversely, total annihilation does not lose points earned by defeating enemies and is recorded as a score.

"Oh, by the way, in this qualifying round, the party will be able to continue fighting even after the leader leaves." It's a dungeon offense. It's over when the leader leaves, but you don't have to worry about that!

The Reid battle was just the exception, and the basics are that if the leader falls, the offense fails.

'Qualifying takes place under the same conditions, and after the results of all venues, not just this venue, the contestants will be determined for the next battle in order of points!

'There are other detailed rules - well, I think I'll explain that every time in real life! By the way, you have a chance to shine even in this qualifying, vulgar misadventure, so have fun around there too! The audience has detailed rules in the brochure they gave you on admission, so you may read them!

'Then it is the entrance of the athlete! We're not referring everyone because of the number of people, but players who weren't introduced here would have taken our eyes off us with strength!

Wow, and the excitement of the audience passes to the athlete entrance.

Numerous famous adventurers, demons...... no, the athletes are entering.

Especially if it's just excerpts from people I care about...

'When you think it's a festival that you can see their activism, you can't hide your excitement even as a one-liver! The leader is the leader of the Seventh Knights! [Justice Balance] Astraire!

Mr. Astrea was a beautiful woman. Golden hair is cut to the point where it does not hang on her shoulders, and blue eyes are pointed straight in the front. It's a grand step, but it doesn't look proud.

Knights.

To put it very slowly - during the war, the Knights fell into the category of army, the adventurers into the category of mercenary.

Of course, many liked to adventure on their own, but many were hired to fight because it was a time when mankind had to unite unanimously for victory against the Demons.

Many people choose neutrality, like elves, and subpeople, such as oaks and goblins, who were on the Devil's side at the time, but there was a dispute anyway, and that was over.

Adventurers and demons coexist in the form of the delivery of dungeon strategies.

The Knights will have a stronger aspect as a policing organization.

It is the mud that runs from the criminals of the century, and the Knights take control.

Including, of course, criminals with adventurous breakdowns and demonic breakdowns.

A bad guy who wasn't popular, but had impeccable combat ability.

There can be harm done to ordinary people by them, but I've never heard of an example of a Knights on their way to captivity getting paid back.

Why.

Easy.

Because it's strong (,,,,).

It must not be, but even if the Four Spirit Contractors become enemies of mankind - then the Four Spirits, allies of mankind, are supposed to break their covenants, even if they do not - they publicly declare that they will contain them.

Of course, few enemies are against the Four Spirit Contractors for their single-horse combat abilities.

So this is a word as a regiment (,).

That's what he says when his total strength as a trained population beats humanity's strongest force as an individual.

The Knights are divided into thirteen parts for each region in charge, each of which is called a regiment.

Among them, the thirteen, known as the Commander, are distinct.

Whatever...

"The Commander of the Thirteenth Knights is a hereditary system, but it is said that it is difficult for generations to make differences in strength! Some of the reasons for this are thorough training, but rumors are that according to" Contract Inheritance "the place is huge! The Spirit usually loves one human being, and after his death, he tours the world again, searching for the next love, but the ancestors of the thirteen knights of our country were deeply and deeply loved by the Spirit, and gained" love until the blood ran out "or something!

In other words, we can pass on spiritual covenants from parent to child.

However, there remain doubts about this.

Only [the brave] can make a covenant with the Spirit. Is it probable that the child to be born will be [brave] all the time?

Perhaps around that the offspring do not contract directly with the Spirit, but also grant protection to the offspring, in accordance with their 'covenant' with the first contractor.

I have the Holy Sword in every generation and I grow up with a more talented education than a child.

I can also snort that there is less variation in strength from generation to generation.

Instead, as times go on, it's going to get faster and stronger with the amount of information accumulated on details of protection, efficient workouts, types of moves, etc.

"What a [position (job)] of Captain Astrea - [brave man]! I mentioned earlier that it would be difficult to make differences in strength depending on the cost, but this would just be different!

I don't know the details of "Contract Succession," but if [Brave Man] says he can contract directly, it's even more powerful.

In the first place...

'As I'm sure you all know - the Spirit has a character, too. The main body is the most amazing when it's the Four Spirits - and the other Spirits determine their power by the size of the shards when they are divided! So, the "Spirit of the Thirteen Bodies" is the first Spirit that occurred during the war, that is, when the four Spirits began to make Spirits for humans. Before you created a spirit full of spirits for so many [brave men], are things trial? You think I was born with a feeling? Rumors among historians? It seems to exist.'

The Phoenix Party [Ice Brave], for example, Mr. Bella, has a contract with the Spirit of Water.

What I got was the "Ice Frozen" spiritual art. Seeing the power seemed to me to be a high spiritual, but I was not given the spiritual art of watering it out.

[Lake Brave] Reis, who signed with the main body of the Water Spirit, can make a big wave if he can freeze.

Fluffy, even, but that's what it feels like to be a character.

It makes a difference in power and what you can do.

Similarly, Rank # 5 [The Brave Man of Thunder] Mr. Skaha was given an applied 'Thunder Strike' on the Spirit of the Wind, but the Wind Blade cannot be produced.

[Storm Brave] Mr. Aerial rarely uses' Thunder Strike ', but it is possible to use it.

"Guess from the activity of the [righteous balance] of history, it is with the spirits of the high ground that her lineage is under contract! Sounds like the Knights and the details are unknown, but the sinners in front of the [righteous balance] can only kneel in silence or something! The athletes are not sinners, but will they perform their spiritual art!

Sinners will only be rumours of having a profession, so Spiritualism can be activated by an athlete.

There is no zero likelihood that the contract can be attacked unless it is a criminal, but I don't think it will come out in the strongest decisive battle without being able to show strength.

But a soil related spirituality where criminals can't resist and kneel...

"Secretism? or something like that. It's a Knights spirit-related thing - but why are you competing in the festival this time? I knew if I was gonna make the strongest decision, I'd have to leave. Like what?

"Unlike adventurers and demons, the Knights don't have a place to show their strength clearly. It's still not convincing to see people actually fight with only results written in newspapers and computer (online) news. The Knights are usually not allowed to participate in events, including dungeon attacks, but this time they will also have the purpose of demonstrating their power as policing organisations'.

It's not just Mr. Astrea's party that I'm attending.

Videos will also be distributed, including this qualifying round, and will be handled on video boards (TVs) day after day.

Public interest will change depending on activity, but that's where we're going to show it.

'Uh, sure. It's a little different, but, you know, I think there's something about "thieves and chorozo" that I think for a moment when I can "transfer space". It's the Knights that catch bad guys like that out there, but can you really do that? Like. I don't even think about it.'

'Unfortunately, there are occasional reports of cases of drunk and violent adventurers, but it's also the Knights' job to control them. You can't act without as much power as you can to suppress that. The same goes for stealing, but where who abused the mighty power, they always put it in a cage! This festival may also be a good idea to show that it is possible. Of course, you won't have to worry about that to everyone here!

'Yeah, yeah. The flames that burn people down without leaving evidence, the manipulation of the earth that buries people deep in the ground, and the little-known magic that is peculiar to the species! All the people here! We only use it to entertain our customers! It's important here.'

'It's really important. Whoa, that's a little longer. So here's the next party-'

It's a plan of this magnitude. I guess the thoughts of all sorts of people are involved.

Not good for indifference or alertness, but not for blind faith either. The hard part.

Anyway.

If the members of the Knights weren't festivals, they wouldn't have a chance to fight.

I've never had a chance to think about it before - but you can think of the 'Spirit of the Thirteen' character as second only to the four Spirits.

I turn my consciousness to Dark for a moment.

A black chick sitting over my head moved.

"Hmm? Well, not there? Fighting your big best friend won't burn you right away, I suppose? Even if the contractor is a miscellaneous fish."

Dark doesn't seem to care much about other spirits, so you can think of this assessment as quite something.

If the Spirit's character alone is to be appreciated now, then join forces as a knight with the [title (job)] of [the brave] -.

'It could be fun. What I'd like to see is my partner's activism.'

More in favour of the Knights' people is the lack of information.

No matter how many adventurous geeks I am, I can't find unpublished information.

Since the announcement of the Knights' participation, we have looked into it as far as possible, but it cannot be said to be sufficient.

At the end of the Astrea Party member introduction, the live person touches on the next party.

'Well, they're next! # 11 in the World Rank [Ashes Brave] Gallo Party! The mighty one who was among the top ten parties in the world until the Phoenix party came in the top ten! Many of you know how strong they are! Enemy hit by Gallo's "bombing" and disappearing without a trace! Enemy! Its offensive and manoeuvrable to the overwhelming will also be demonstrated in this qualifying round!

Mr. Gallo is a man of long standing. Sharp eyes, black hair. Features light black skin and a flashy costume.

I tend to be misunderstood because I'm afraid of appearances, but I'm a cheerful person.

He's squeaking his fingers as he enters, causing a small explosion in hollow to go with it, boiling the audience.

He's a fun and sweet guy, but there's still an adventurer.

There seems to be something I think about the current situation of eleventh place...

I just finished introducing the members, a live woman says.

'It's such a gallop, but this time we have someone to blame!

Galopa would mean a galo party. I haven't heard of much live use, but fans use it to abbreviate the part of the party.

The adventurer's name may also be abbreviated as long. With Airpa or Phenipa? Although I don't use it because I feel that it makes it sound interesting somehow.

More than that, yes.

I'm here.

There's a party that put Gallo Party in eleventh place.

'Thank you for waiting......! Here they are at last! World Rank # 4 [Flaming Brave] - PHENICS PARTY......!!!

A roaring cheer and a mix of yellow cheers dominate the venue.

Led by Phoenix, [Warrior] Alba, [Saint Knight] Lark, [Hunter] Lily and [Ice Brave] Bella enter.

"It's actually been a hundred and thirty years since I've been a contractor with the Fire Spirit Body, Phoenix! His work will no longer have to be talked about! I speak because I am to speak! Also arguably the firemen of the Demon King's Castle offensive boom, they maintained" Undefeated "and" Floor Boss One Strike Back "until they experienced defeat on the 10th Floor of Demon King's Castle! The world's attention is drawn to what kind of battle they will show on the stage of festival that they have trained since......!

"[Black Demon Instructor] He seemed to be losing track of Leme's exit. Kedo, his reputation has been steady lately - [Ice Brave] It feels like Bella's accession has definitely increased her power of control, and the other three are somewhat different than before - or something! What makes it different, enjoy watching!

After the battle at Demon King Castle, I don't think the words I said were the reason or anything like that.

In fact, we're all stronger.

Those who gathered together to put Phoenix first, and whom Phoenix recognized as his companion.

It gets stronger and stronger, and it's still growing.

"That [black demon mentor] lemme, how dare he be in this qualifying round too!

There are also many other powerful people gathered at this venue alone, such as the party led by the Four Heavenly Kings of "The Demon King Castle of the West" and the party with the highest rank.

"Mr. Lemme, they called me."

Leader's voice.

"Yeah."

The leader of my party laughs belligerently.

And I said.

"Well, shall we all go? Let's get the best of it."

Proceed to the entrance, which is wide and has been cleared of ceilings, corresponding to various races.

'Coming! There is no rank because there is no time between formations, but from the activity of the Battle of Reid, its strength came to the knowledge of the world - [Lake Brave] Reis! And it's his formed race party!

Cheer is not as good as a Phoenix party, but is it natural if you think it's popular?

A lot of people are somewhat confused would be because of the composition.

[Brave] [Destroyer] [Black Demon Instructor] [White Demon Instructor] [Miner] But perhaps without precedent, Mr. Melania is the half of the cyclops - a sub.

And I was half anticipating this - Yosu-kun said he was a sub, too.

In addition to those two, [Black Demon Instructor] thinks he's been expelled from the Phoenix party for incompetence, and has been a bit active since his departure, when he's somehow been highly regarded by high rankers in the industry.

These three were the two of us who showed strength in the Battle of Reid.

I can also tell that I have trouble reacting to the difference from a typical brave party.

But the leader didn't care at all about the problems that would bother him if he were a normal [brave man].

"Let's turn this all into cheer."

Nature and laughter leak to Rayce's confidence.

Because it was a seeping word of his certainty that this party could do it.

It is full of [brave] knighthood leaders who signed with the Spirit after the Four Spirits, top adventurers of the eleventh rank in the world, the Four Heavenly Kings of another 'Demon King's Castle' who defeated numerous adventurers, not just them, but the strong ones.

Of course, I honed my strength more than before - and the Phoenix Party.

Turn everything in the venue into a cheer for our battle.

How difficult that is.

Still, I snort.

"Oh, let's do that"
