"- The battle is on the pass!

I was shouting the word instantly against a warrior-motivated demon god.

"Oh, why? You've defeated so many demons, I heard you're a hero who loves to crusade demons."

"It's a cruel misunderstanding. He's also a Battlemaniac, and I've never fought like one."

The only way I'm going to fight is if I basically raid from the other side.

We have no choice but to fight to protect the city and protect our homes and property.

I'm so sorry I bothered to go to a place where there was a battle.

"This time I have no particular advantage in fighting... Alokes, you're not the kind of person who's hostile to humans or who kills with ease, are you?

"Well, naturally. I don't remember being such a barbarian."

I guess. It's about a Fionard acquaintance, and he's unlikely to be hostile to humans.

It doesn't even seem like you're lying, so there's really no point in fighting.

That's why I made the rejection. Yet,

"… but to a magic tournament match, or my opponent, Kouta's name, was registered this morning, right?

"Yeah!?

Alokes started saying that.

"I've never been able to decide on an opponent and he's going to be a little indigested. But if you can't decide, you can't fight. Because Kouta came where it was. That's why I said I wanted to fight Kouta."

"-Ma, wait, wait. I don't know what the story means, but my name is on it!? Where?!

"Uh… for example, on the magic bulletin board over there."

Alokes pointed out that there was a plank with bright colors.

And it seems that magic is used on the board, which was projected with a number of letters.

The biggest letter is called "Grand Magic Combat Games Match Table".

And the second largest letter is:

"First Special Match Kouta VS Alokes Unlimited Time One Match!

The name of me and the demon god came in with a brilliant performance.

"... hey, Solas. It looks like my name is on it. I guess this is yume. I wonder if my eyes have gone crazy enough to see Yume even when she's awake."

"And hold on, Mr. Kouta! This is reality! Because it's real!

Yeah, I know. I was also able to recognise that Solas was shaking me and that this was really a reality. But...

"What's going on............!?

It was the same that I didn't know what that meant.

Battle tournament, what a noisy event I don't remember entering.

How can my name be so clearly stated? I thought it was someone's conspiracy,

"Um, Kouta?

Fiona called out.

"Hey, what's up, Fiona?"

"Since Kouta came to this king's capital, have you used magic? Precisely, after entering the castle, near the soundproofing room."

"Huh? I used it in magic practice………………"

I came to this city and remembered Spit Thunder, so I hit it with the intention of making sure it didn't burst badly.

But that's what it is. If I answer with that in mind,

"If so, I wonder if that's the cause. I have a contract for a magic tournament in that soundproof room......" "YES!? Why?!"

"The contract is that if you use more than a certain amount of powerful magic, you will be registered as a contestant. So to avoid more participants in bad accidents, it's hard to pass the magic through and keep it in the soundproofing room, in a safe-deposit vault with even more magic."

"… Are you serious?

That's the first time I've heard of it.

"It's a system as a safety device that is only supposed to allow people with more than a certain amount of magic to register... conversely, because if you make people feel more than a certain amount of magic, they will complete the registration... Perhaps the use of magic in the soundproofing room led to the registration of Kouta."

"Didn't the magic put you in a hard safe?

And yet why am I registered for using magic in the corner of the soundproofing room?

"That is............ I think Master Kouta's magical powers were probably too strong. enough to break down the magic damping that was on the outer wall of the vault."

"Ah, Mr. Kouta's magic, you were strong..."

Although I was briefed that Spit Thunder was a military magic and powerful thing.

Apparently, they've demonstrated their power where they don't have to.

"So, the contract was completed. Until yesterday, Alokes' opponent was undecided and blank, so I was wondering if he just got in there."

"Seriously......"

I can no longer do anything but surprise.

Why do you keep something like that only when I use the soundproofing room? There's a lot to be said about how the demon gods can deal with each other, but first,

"Can't you dismiss the contract magic or something?

I asked him how to escape. However,

"I'm sorry, but the magic of revoking these contract magics… I've never seen it before."

With that said, you did.

If there was magic to undo, the Royal System would have turned it off instantly! Without it, the situation has been created!

"Uh, well, can I ignore the tournament? Or abstain or give up fighting."

"That's better stopped. Once activated, the contractual magic will curse your soul if you don't fulfill it at the very least. In the case of this magic battle competition, the condition should have been that we would definitely meet magic once. If you don't hit at least one shot, you'll hurt your soul..."

"Cursed, wounded, to be specific"

"You'll be asleep for a while. And the worst chance of dying……………."

"You make them fight with such a noisy contract!?

Yeah, the worst word I could have expected.

"Yes, no, because most people who challenge this tournament don't know their fate, and if the contract doesn't weigh as much as this, it's not interesting..."

After saying that, Fiona sifted and shook her head to the side, then lowered her head.

"Ho, I'm so sorry, Master Kouta. I didn't think Kouta would use the soundproofing room so soon, but I couldn't pay attention………"

"No...... yeah. You have nothing to apologize for, Fiona. One of the reasons I used the soundproofing room is because it feels right..."

This is an accident. I learned strange magic in a strange place, so I did it to be safe.

It doesn't mean who's wrong.

No, I think the bastard who just used magic to create a contract to be registered as an athlete is a little bad, but still, there's no choice in this case.

"… that in order not to die, we need to meet to end the player contract and, in order to do so, we have to fight in the tournament at all? … Alokes, for example, if I go to the tournament, are you willing to give me a break?

I asked Alokes with a slight desire, but he haha, after a bitter laugh,

"I wonder if I can do that. As you know, demons are true to their desires. - You can fight Kouta, the person you want... but you can't lose your hand."

I said that with a serious look.

Achievement. Fighting is his desire as a demon god. If so, I can't expect it to be reduced.

A guy named Demon God, that's what he is. They prioritize their own desires, in a way that makes them easy to understand.

That's why I don't have a choice anymore.

"Fiona...... Just in case, if you get hurt in this tournament, if your body gets a little worn out, you're gonna get treated, right?

"Yes, let's do that. Because we have the most up-to-date medical staff... Dear Kouta? If that's what you mean..."

Oh, what if there's nothing there?

If this happens, there's nothing more we can do.

I have no choice, and it's not what I found out anymore. Whatever.

"Alright! I'll fight the demon god about once, damn it!!!

"Kouta's eyes are the scariest thing I've ever seen..."

Thoras pulled me off, but the demon god who was planning to fight me looked heartily happy and smiled furiously.

"Hahaha...... kinda looks like Kouta has a situation too...... but you sure got a good opportunity! I'm looking forward to the Magic Combat Games, Kouta."

"Wow, I, too, was a little unexpected about this accident, so I'll be ready to support you for Master Kouta! So, don't worry, Master Kouta!

"Oh I don't want to be relieved but I will let you......!!

Thus, I fought the Battlemanian demons to protect my life, something I didn't mean to do.
