We're going to a raffle.

"Lottery?

I lean my neck against Lace's words. [M]

The place is in the courtyard of the hotel where Leis is staying.

This inn caters to various races and consists of four buildings.Although the building can be divided according to physique and lifestyle, it can be rendezvous in a large courtyard.

Four people other than Melania are sitting around a table.Tables and chairs are made of wood.

Melania, a half-cyclops, was bent nearby.

Daytime. Our table is shaded by Melania's shadow.I feel kind of cool.

"That's right. We've been told that we're going to decide the second stage combination by lottery."

"Oh, I see. So the raffle."

When I nodded, Jos said with a face that reminded me of something. [M]

"In sports and so on, it's a sight I see occasionally."

"Really?

I didn't know it because I wasn't very familiar with anything other than adventurer activities.

Melania also shouted with admiration.

Mr Fran is gazing at the trees planted in the courtyard.As the leaves sway, I even remember the illusion that the leakage day will be paralyzed and the pattern will change.

"Joss is right. Like in sports, they distribute computers."

I see, from the stage of the combination announcement, it will attract public interest.

"At the very least, I have to be a leader, but I don't mind if we all go to the party."

"Gathering a hundred parties in one place just to draw lots is certainly going to be a lot more difficult."

"By the way, the raffle will be held in this city."

Hundreds of parties are divided into four groups by lottery.

Each group will have a tournament, and only the apex of each group will advance to the final third stage.

In other words, only twenty people can fight the legend in four parties.

Now we are in the city of "Undefeated Demon King Castle".

After the raffle, they said that they would go to the city where the Demon King Castle was located in the north, south and east for each group.

Yes, the tournament takes place on special stages within each Demon King Castle.

The final stage, of course, is the "Undefeated Demon King Castle".

Fellow and the Demon King, who are in ideological conflict, can't refuse if they become a place to greet the Master?

"Just in case, if someone doesn't show up, I think it'll take me a long time to get there."

"I'll get lost, I promise."

Mr Fran shifted his gaze from the leaking day to Mr Race and assured him.

"Someday we'll get there."

"I'm coming with you. Don't let Les get lost."

"Yes, yes, that's what I thought."

Les and Fran, we can't let these two get in the way.

If this is a promise to go out, I'm going to read the air, but I can't miss it if it's a valuable opportunity to see the fierce people who have moved on to phase two.

I'm coming, too.

Next, Jos and Melania will go.

Eventually, we all went to the raffle for the raffle.

And the day.

The venue is a dungeon separate from the Demon King Castle.

There are two dungeons in this city.

One was known as the "Undefeated Demon King Castle".Tactical difficulty is the highest in the industry.

The other is "Intermediate Travel Dungeon."

The video of this dungeon's attack is not on the computer (net) at all.

It is a special dungeon that operates in partnership with training institutions (schools) for the training and examination of students.

There are very few dungeons that can be simulated, and adventurer trainees are gathered from training institutions (schools) across the country.

Those who have broken through this dungeon leave the city to explore the world and eventually aspire to the city again.

To attack the highest difficulty dungeon in the city of travel.

... I don't go to a training institution (school), so I don't have that kind of awareness.

Phoenix and Aruba seem to have been there before, and they missed it when they attacked Demon King Castle.

Leave it alone.

"Intermediate Travel Dungeon."

Huge chunks of rock settle throughout the city, with empty holes in the entrance.At midway, a spiral staircase leads to the basement.

Beyond this sense of extraordinary routine, there is a door, and beyond that, it will be accepted.

--But that's for regular visitors.

This time we will use another one.

You can't just use the back entrance for the staff because there are a hundred parties coming together.If you try to gather them at the same time, they get crowded, and if you let them fall apart, the first party you come to will be waited a lot of time.

Therefore, it became the time for the transfer recording stone.

Place the transfer stone connected to the dungeon core in the facility rented by the festival's management committee.

This will transfer them from each facility to the lottery venue in the dungeon.

There are five facilities designated as meeting places, including the back entrance.

A maximum of twenty parties per place - not everyone will come together - is that acceptable?

On that day, we understood Mr. Fellow's purpose as we proceeded along the designated route.

"Ah, here's the thing.Looks like that uncle. "

Lace is laughing.He is waving his hand while laughing (...,...,...,...).

"Leskun!

"Eh, is that [Lake Brave]?It's smaller than I saw in the video.Cute ~ "

"Ah, I laughed.Wow... a genius from facial shaping... a level where the dead come out with a smile... "

The yellow voice rises.

I can't wait to get out, I'm waiting for the entrance.

It appeared when the route was followed to some extent.

Barricades have been set up to keep athletes out of the way.

And naturally, the general public was gathering to see the second-stage entrants.

--The more you meet the second-stage entrants…… the more information leaked from somewhere.

Rather, I guess you leaked it on purpose.This is also to boost the All-Temper Festival competition.

Looks like Mr. Fellow.

"Ahahah. Thank you for your support, gentlemen."

Les is waving a kind of sparkling smile.

What a loud and loud voice.

With that, Fran grabbed his right arm so hard... I felt it.

"That's Fran.He said he and Les are childhood friends. "

"or cute... I wondered if the doll was moving"

Fran was unresponsive to his voice.

"Because, Fran. Some of you know that."

When Les says happy, Mr Fran's eyebrows twitch.

"... nothing"

It is very difficult to understand, but the anger seems to have withered.

And from somewhere else, there was this voice.

"That man with white hair... what a beautiful man..."

"Ah, I'm Joss from the White Wizard.She's beautiful, isn't she? "

"What, are you a woman?

"I don't know."

Joss smiles bitterly with his delicate face whether he heard the conversation or not.

"It's a man...Do I look like such a woman?

In the original dungeon exploration, I couldn't say anything because I didn't know either.

"Giant girl... it's bigger than I thought, isn't it?

"No, it's too big...But maybe it's because it's halfway there?

"My eyes are huge too... I envy you"

"Because it's cyclops... but I know..."

Yes, I dared not touch myself, but this lace party is excellent except for one.

Of course, the only exception is me.

"Who's that black guy?

"Hmm? You're from [Black Mage], right?They said it was amazing on the video board. "

"That's right. You said in an interview that the air reality wants to fight, the qualifiers?But you did something amazing, didn't you?

The information is fluffy.

"And ex-Phenipa, right?You're really good, aren't you?

"Heh... ah, maybe I've heard that before.Aruba kicked me out.If you're such a great guy, why did you kick him out?

"... is that... plain?I hear you don't really need Black Mage .

"There aren't many parties in there.Then why did you let Leis in?

"That's why it's super good, right?

"Er, is that what you call meritocracy?Braille ~ "

As in the Phoenix Party era, there has been less criticism here.

Of course, there won't be any sudden change in the public's appreciation of the [Black Mage], and there will still be a lot of people who are skeptical about my abilities.

But there is something unusual about it.

It's a little sad you don't remember your name, but there are so many adventurers to help.

I'm just trying to be rememberable.

As you go a little further, you hear a noisy voice coming from the front.

Carried by the wind, it came down with cheers.

"... snow"

Mr Fran murmured.

Even though it's not such a time, snowflakes are dancing.

The answer is simple and magical.

"Aunt Snow."

That's what Lace says.

Call Aunt Snow White, sixth in the world... No, you actually know him.

[Unyielding brave man] Reis, who has Altruit in his father, also calls Aerial his uncle.It is no wonder that if he is an acquaintance of his father, he would call him that.

"Have you met [Snow White Hero]?

Les nodded to Jos's question.

"I've been home a few times.I have my autograph book. "

"Writer Snow's autograph book!?

Joss speaks loudly.

"Eh, yeah. What, are you a fan?

"No... well, I read it a lot when I was a kid."

While coughing up, Jos confirmed with a slightly red face.

"Hmm. Then I'll ask you to sign later."

"Eh!?

"Writer...?

From a little higher, I heard Melania's voice.

"Ah, [Snow White Hero] Snow is also a picture book writer.The "Fuyu-no-Kuni-no-Yukiboya" series is particularly famous.My hometown wasn't even a bookstore, but there were two at Phoenix's house, and I read them when I was little. "

A snowman boy born one time on land where nothing but snow exists.A snowman crying when one person is lonely hears the voice of God.In this country, like you, there is life in what is shaped by snow.

The boy works hard to make friends in the snow.

It could be a snowman, a four-legged walking creature he imagined, or a flying creature.

He was a boy who lived a pleasant life full of friends, but a child with a bad heart appeared among his friends.

That's how it feels.

I see.

Interestingly, Melania nods.

Mr. Snow is over thirty years old, but she is a beautiful woman with a childish face.

A woman with a strange atmosphere like this when a teenage girl grows up without touching the dirt of the world.

There is no discomfort in her speaking like a character in the story.

Beautiful long hair scattered with snow crystals and clear blue eyes.

It looks cold and always looks warm.

"Yukiboya!" "There's a snowman too!" "Eh, why are you so itchy!?Not the enemy!?

Which is the first, the adventurer?It would be better to publish a picture book later.

She has a contract with the Spirit of Water.It gained the power of "Snow Manipulation."Then he created a variety of creatures in the snow and manipulated them to fight monsters.

In the entertaining dungeon strategy, the visually pleasant battle was greatly appreciated by young children.

There was also an excitement of picture books, and many children and parents with children were fascinated by [Hero] Snow.

Now, with her, the characters of the story are walking through reality.

Anyone who has read that picture book once can't help it.

At that time, Mr. Snow looked back and saw Reis.Smile gently and raise your hand slightly.

Reis turned his hand and said, "Sleigh."

"What are we gonna do?It's like a water dragon. "

Hmm. I know there's a fan service like that, but I don't think it's going to be counterproductive. "

Yeah, that's right.

That said, Reis turned to the female fan who called his name and winked.

The woman squeezes her chest and kneels in joy.

"You can't do this to a snowflake."

"... ahaha"

He's a horrible boy, in many ways.
