Shinka no Mi

Wangdu Cup

"Good luck, Seiichi, then!

"I got your back in the audience."

"Ooh."

I, Seiichi Shu, ask Sarya and Al for backup words and head to the horse cabin with Lune.

By the way, the horse cabin offered it to me after I told Mr. Fina about Lune.

And today, it is a day to participate in the King's Capital Cup, which can be considered a reckless challenge. Yabeye, not now, but what do I do?

Yesterday, after I broke up with Mae and Clay, I left, and I introduced Salia and Al to Lune.

When I was May, it was fine, so as I thought there would be no offense in letting Lune meet with the Salias, Lune was also being nice to Saliah and Al.

So it didn't take long for Lune to get along with Salia and Salia was originally gorilla, and somehow she was just as willing to communicate with Lune as I was.... I will not think about how gorillas and robbers can communicate with each other at this time.

So, when I also told them how I was going to compete in the Wang Capital Cup today, they both looked surprised at first, but immediately backed me up. Still, Al said he would support you in the audience... where is the audience?

That's fine, because I got the two of you to back me up, and I want to win if I can.

Lurne also said that he was confidently fast on his feet, that he couldn't win, but he couldn't get to some rank, could he? I think.

I just wonder why. I only have a bad feeling. Am I crazy?

No, because originally it's hard, or you try something like they say it's impossible. You don't have a bad feeling or anything. Indeed, it is now.

Walking with that in mind, I had at some point reached the horse cabin with Lune.

Once inside, there were horses of other adventurers and merchants who spent time eating pasture and stuff.

Take a look at the other horses and get to Lune's place.

Then Lune noticed that I was approaching and greeted Roba's ass with a frivolous face in vain.

'Good morning, Lord! It's a great horseback riding day!

"I don't know if it's horseback riding day, but good morning. Nice to meet you today."

'I'll take care of it! Let us always let the Lord prevail in order to preserve the honour of this Lune, the Lord!

"What's the real deal?

"For Bahamut!

"I'm not willing to win!

Bahamut is the prize of the fifth place winner, so if he wins, he can't get it.

Before the race begins, the prizes from the remaining fourth place to the victory will apparently be unveiled......

If you're going to win, at least Lune's distracting food isn't the winning prize. Before that, Lune was a loba, even desperate to win.

"Well no. We don't have that much time anymore, and should we go?

'Ha!'

Leaving Lune out of the horse cabin, I moved to the starting point of the King's Capital Cup, near the gate of the checkpoint, which is also the entrance to the King's Capital Terveil.

When we reach the gate, the adventurers, who will be participants, are taking and gathering various horses.

"Oh, awesome. Besides the horses I know, there are a lot of horses.... some horses, but are you okay?

Looking over at the horses around him, whining alone, he was called from behind.

"Makoto!"

"Makichi!

"Hmm?"

Turning around, Clay, dressed in luxurious clothes, and May, dressed in a blouse and long skirt, were coming this way.

"Clay and May? What's wrong with you both?

"I'm here to see how hard you and Roba can work!

"I came to see Seiichi because she told me she was going to run to give me the courage... I thought there was no way she wouldn't support me"

"Right. Well, I'll do my best for May."

When I tell her that with a bitter laugh under my hood, May says with a sorry face.

"Makichi. I have already decided to compete in a painting competition. Still haven't decided what to draw...... So, Seiichi doesn't care about me either, run as you wish. Besides, Makichi's goal is the fifth prize, right, Bahamut?

"For once."

Primarily, that is Lune's goal.

"Then don't think about winning, try your best for your goal ranking! Because I'm here for you!

"Thanks"

But why not? Besides, I don't feel like they're saying it's impossible to win.

With that in mind, I realized there was a fuss.

"With that said, how do people watch games watch our races?

The course of the Wang Du Cup simply circles around the walls.

But the walls that surround the entire city called Terbert are, of course, quite long. Like the Earth Station Herald, will I support you at each point?

Al and Salia are also going to watch the game with the audience...

I'll try to predict this, but Clay just explained to me what he was talking about when he got a decent look on his face.

"Whatever you do, use the Magic Projector."

"... nanisole"

When I ask her unintentionally, May answers me this time.

"Eh, a magic projector is one of those magic props that magically floats countless' magic guidance cameras' into the universe, projecting the footage we're shooting with it into the air so that everyone can see footage of a remote location. It's powered by magical magicians in court."

Magic chicara is awesome. I'd look at restorative magic and stuff, but I don't think science feels surprisingly demanding. Magic solves everything already, doesn't it? Even the dead can be brought back to life.

"Once a tournament center is set up, the footage that is basically projected can be seen anywhere in the entire King's Capital, so it will be watched at each location. Me and Clay are going to support you as you watch the footage projected at the gallery."

"I see..."

I'm convinced of Mae's explanation.

Although relatively safe, there are demons outside the walls. You won't be able to watch the game in there.

"Ah! It's time to move. You're out of seats..."

"Right... Makichi, me and May will be moved to the tournament hall. Let's hope it works for you!

"Good luck!

Eventually, we both headed right to the observatory before I returned my greetings.

"Well...... will you do your best"

With such a grunt, I took Lune to the starting point.

◆ ◇ ◆

'Come on, I've done it! A luxury prize is given each year, the Wang Du Cup! Allow me to host this King's Capital Cup, affiliated with the Knights [Battle Maiden of Kensei (Valkyrie)], Lorna Kirizas! It's a short time, thank you!

The voice of a woman, echoing the whole city.

And in the air, the faces of this King's Capital Cup contestant, gathered in the starting line, were shown.

... I don't even feel like getting stuck anymore, but the technology that's getting this MC's voice is also magical, I guess. You don't need science, do you?

Contrary to me being mentally tired, the voices of the participants around me and the MC were tense.

'Now, before I explain the rules or start… I'd like to make an announcement of the prizes from 1st to 4th, which you are all concerned about!

The moment MC told him so, the people around him boiled up a lot.

"Whoa, whoa!

"What kind of awesome prize is this!?"

"I'll never give you the win!

"Victory in my hands. No, no, no!

I'm scared around......!

Whenever my surroundings shouted, my body was shaking in freckles.

And so much so that I can't beat the heat around me that Lune is quietly rolling the fight, too.

"Bahamut Bahamut Bahamut Bahamut Bahamut Bahamut Bahamut Bahamut Bahamut..."

"No more shit, this kid!

All I'm thinking about is eating! No, I'd love to try it, too!

When one was atrophied, he heard the MC's pleasant voice.

'Hmm, that's a good enthusiasm! This prize is so great that you can't beat all those hot people! Plus, this winning prize is new like never before!

Something new? What would that be......

Leaning his neck at the MC's words, Lune reacted more to the MC's words than I did.

"Oh, you say it's a new thing!? No way... there's more ingredients than Bahamut!?"

"Once you get away from your meal!

'Kuh! Bahamut wants anything, but if the winning prize was also an ingredient... what am I supposed to do!?'

"Listen to me. Yeah, yeah, yeah!

My scratch was vain, and Lune started worrying on her own. I'll cry in the end.

As Lune's obsession with food is about to cry, the MC announces a prize.

"So let's start with the fourth prize! The fourth prize is… in a certain dungeon, our Valkyrie captain, the legendary weapon, [Sea Break], obtained by Jesus! The reason this weapon is a prize is simply because among us, there are no knights to fight with an axe. Well, whether an Epic weapon crosses into another country, we can't lose!

If you look up above, a large axe with a beautiful blue blade was shown from the footage that showed us participants until just now. Perhaps that's the weapon called sea cracking.

Epic weapon in the fourth prize. What's the winning prize really? Besides, I guess the Knights really say Valkyrie or something that makes it so easy to prize an Epic weapon.

As Gassle said before, there are two super-strong knights in this country.

"Third place next! The prize for third place is...... and likewise, the Epic Armor that Lewis got in the Dungeon, [The Cage Hand of Evil]! The reason this protective gear became a prize is no different than the 4th prize, Sea Break! Mortar thief!

"" "Whoa, whoa!

In response to the MC's words, the surroundings shouted loudly.

The footage, sometime from sea cracking, has turned into a silver cage hand, and I guess that cage hand is the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's broken.

Steady...... wow. From the adventurer's point of view, I think we'll all work hard because we'll want both the 4th place sea cracker and the 3rd place cage of evil.

In the first place, even this King's Capital Cup is a tournament for adventurers, and it's obvious in a way that there's no prize for the public.

"Then second place! The prize for second place is… the precious photo of our captain, Louis! What do you say? You want it!

I don't need it!? Why are you here and pictures!?

"This is a delicacy that I made a honorable sacrifice and hid in [Magic Camera]! Well, after this tournament, I'm sure I'll be pissed!

You idiot! Hidden pictures, honorable sacrifices... all I can say is really stupid! Besides, if you knew you'd be scolded, why did you do it!?

The footage also changed from the earlier cage hand and the mosaic photograph was projected. A mosaic is... an awesome waste of technology!

What the fuck!? 4th and 3rd place was amazing! No way pictures!? Who wants, such things!

"Absolutely. Awwwwwwwww!

"Your sister's picture is mine. Whoa, whoa!

"Whoa whoa whoa! Long live Lord Lewis!

The enthusiasm is more amazing than an Epic weapon...... so!? this country or be......!

Amazingly, I wanted pictures of Louise and her as well as men, even women, and all my eyes ran bloody and I was so scared.... I want to go home.

Unexpectedly holding his head, the MC finally moved on to announce the winning prize.

'Come on, come on, we've done it! This is the announcement of the winning prize!

Once again, in the words of the MC, the participants thrive.

'The glorious # 1 athlete is given the right... to spend the day with us Valkyries!

I don't need it! Give me back my 3rd and 4th inspiration, fool!

When they were massively tucked inside, the participants around them were quiet, as if their enthusiasm earlier had been a lie.

That would be it! What kind of winning prize is a right I'm not sure about!? There are people who would love to have that stuff -.

"" "- I'm the winner. Ahhhhhhhhhhh!

"" "- The winner is me. Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Hey, hey, hey, hey!

The participants broke through the silence just now and shouted at the highest voltage.

"It's a good enthusiasm! Well, if you've been given the opportunity to meet with Louis in person, it's natural for everyone to ask for it! Before this excitement cools down, explain the rules too!

The moderator began to explain the situation with a heartfelt and enjoyable laugh.

'When it comes to rules, there's nothing hard about it! Anyway, just circle the walls that surround the entire city of Terveil, this king's capital! However, you will be disqualified immediately if you interfere with another person or engage in obvious dangerous or irregular conduct! I mean, if you have something you want, get it square and show it to me. Hey, hey, hey, hey!

"" "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Listening to the screams of the participants and calming down a little, the MC adds.

'In addition, the original King's Capital Cup sometimes meant that the participants were mainly adventurers, and the average person could not participate and just had to watch and enjoy! So, from this time on, we're going to start [horse racing], betting on which participant will shine first! Now the general public is having more fun than just having fun, if you're lucky! Yeah, well, it's a wagerable amount, but you can't leave someone dependent or bankrupt, so I'm up to 10,000 G! Ladies and gentlemen, join the excitement!

Horse racing!? You even do horse racing!? Really, maybe it's boring to just watch...

After all, I don't know if this form of horse racing will turn out well. Well, he said it started this time, and I guess it has some test implications.

With that in mind, the footage projected in the air changed, displaying the names of the participants, the type of horses they would ride, and the magnification.

"This is the player participating in this King's Capital Cup! Again, the most popular, said to be the fastest of all horse types, is a pair of [Meteor Horse (Meatier Horse)] and Michael! Michael has a proven track record of winning the last King's Capital Cup, and it would be a reasonable place to be the winner's most prominent candidate. '

Heh... do you have a previous winner? That must be awesome fast.

'It just seems that there are many other leading players in this tournament, and I don't know who the winner will be!

Well, I guess it's none of my business. Lune, too, figured out the winning prize wasn't the ingredient after all, and he's definitely going to get the fifth place bahamut.

It was when the moderator was analyzing the predictions and the strengths of each athlete and communicating them.

'... Mmmm!? What does this mean! Oh, my God, you have a hell of a pair of 120x magnification!

... Is that it? I kind of have a bad feeling...

"My name is Makoto, and the horse I ride...... Ro, Roba aaaaaaaaaa!? Makoto, are you willing to win!?"

Stop. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Because I know best! It means challenging in a loba is reckless!

So at least...... at least leave me alone! Don't abuse me. Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Looking around, the other participants were looking at me raw and warm. Don't look at me like that!

"Keep it up, okay! Now we are done explaining the rules and announcing the prize! All you have to do is... compete! All right, everybody, let's get started, so move to the starting line!

In the end, I was supposed to travel from my surroundings to the starting line with warm eyes.

I heard later that this embarrassing footage was seen and exploded by the entire Wang capital.... Is there a hole somewhere?

No kidding, it was me starting to look for a hole to hide.
