Yomigaeri no Maou

The main election was different from the qualifying round.

Until the qualifying period, the various athletes had broken up into four arenas and fought in a jade stone mix, so the audience also tended to spread out to the venue for their own players or to go see famous players.

However, all the matches in the main race are played in one state-run arena, with a high multiplier for its admission, enough for those who cannot enter to continue.

As a matter of fact, in order to really want to watch this genuine race, those who compete in the martial arts tournament for the dedicated seats set aside for the contestants will not stop.

Of course, it's a life-threatening tournament, so you train quite a bit before you compete, but still there's no guarantee of a certain safety or anything else, and it's no exaggeration to say that you're risking your life for the tournament.

So much so that the entire Wang Capital is enthusiastic about the tournament, the climax, which is the main competition, and the enthusiasm will be understandable.

Standing at the heart of such enthusiasm, Lulu waited for his opponent to show up.

If you stand here and mention something different than before, would that be cheering for Lulu as well?

There are curses, but that's also the very beginning - something that didn't exist before I fought Shui, and nothing more than to say that it has gained more visibility.

I think of it as a loving voice in a way and think about accepting it.

Then I thought about this opponent.

That's what I've been thinking since I hit Shui, but all of Lulu's opponents were the powerful ones.

Shui was superior, and the person he bumped into after that was superior even if he didn't go that far.

It is true that there are many advanced adventurers in this competition compared to the usual year, and there are new principals, so it cannot be said that they are unlikely to bump into each other.

I just felt like no matter how much, there wasn't too much strength biased against my opponent against Lulu.

None of the contestants other than Lulu have been hit by less than one person since qualifying round two.

Probably not possible, but still don't feel somewhat manipulative.

Besides, this time the other guy...

"Oh man... Non, I'd like to abstain..."

When the old man showed up saying that, the venue was wrapped in great cheer.

Even though there are few voices of support for Lulu, it would still mean that he is no match for the old man in front of him, who has been an adventurer in this king's capital for many years.

Besides, I hear his accomplishments are also very significant.

It seems that in a period of about once every decade, demons can occur in groups around the Wang capital, but he - Uvezd-Angel, plus his family (Klan) "The Truth About Beautiful Dirt (Bourus sortida)" - says that each time they have joined the battle and sunk many demons in the exercise of massive sorcery.

The history of the family (Klan) "The Truth About Beauty (Bourus sortida)" itself is also very long, and that is the historical family (Klan) that existed after the formation of the Adventurers' Union (Guild), long before the existence of the organization "Family (Klan)" was officially recognised, saying that belonging to this family (Klan) is admired as nothing more than being recognised as a leading magician for the magician of the Wang capital Desiert.

Uvezd-Angel, the chief of such a family (Klan), has the appearance of an old man who is old, has white hair, beard, thin body and seems poor to see.

However, it doesn't feel weak, but cheerful favorites if expressed in a nutshell.

So even though he is one of the premier adventurers led by a giant family (clan), and as a magician he has no desire for anything more, if he doesn't know the fame attached to his face and name, he will lean his neck and doubt it.

But Lulu couldn't do anything like treat him that way.

Indeed, the old man in front of him - Uvezd looks, at first glance, just an old man, not so much magic, and his movements look extremely dull.

He may indeed have been a powerful sorcerer when he was young, but now he is no longer on the verge of hiding, nor does he seem to be living in the glory of the past.

But Lulu once saw a being like him.

No, I knew more than I had seen.

Lulu's - was the staff of the Demon King, a magician who wrapped up an atmosphere very similar to his, one of his former neighbors, Muthos-Irenus.

Uvezd's entangling atmosphere was exactly like his.

Looking at it all the time doesn't seem as strong.

My body is also dry and I can no longer even seem to feel my vitality as a creature.

But it's just a fiction.

The magic is small and weak because the magic worked out to the extreme in him is ready to be poured into magic at any time, and the body looks poor because to him, the extreme magician, physical ability is not gained by working out the body, but created by massive magic and elaborate magic manipulation techniques.

Uvezd is similar to such an approachable magician.

The fact made Lulu fear that he should never be caught off guard.

So the words out of his mouth, wanting to abstain, etc. also sound just a joke.

Lulu tells him.

"Old body. Not very much, but you just don't seem to have the kind of power you have to abstain from. Rather than that... I feel the excitement of burning into battle"

Uvezd laughs at such Lulu's words and tilts his neck as he strokes his long, white jaw.

"Ha... is it something such an old man has so much power...? Look, take a good look, young man. If you were as familiar with magic as the Lord, you would feel at a glance how little magic Non possesses... no?

With his hands wide open, Lulu becomes more alert to the old man who does such a thing.

I'm pretty sure those words, willing to alarm you, are meant to beat Lulu no matter what you think.

It still reminds me of my former muttos that I care about all sorts of tricks using every means to do so and never letting the other person take it personally.

Lulu can understand that because the person Lulu taught that witchcraft is nothing more than Mutos, and that Mutos was also the kind of damned grandpa who cunningly invites his opponent to be alert, like the old man in front of him.

Lulu says, remembering that acquaintance he once knew.

"... my acquaintance has a grandfather who looks just like you... and the experience has taught you not to be alarmed. I certainly don't feel much magic, but I know exactly why that is. So I know very well that you're a terrible grandfather... and I won't be alarmed."

To Lulu's words, Uvezd opened his eyes and laughed cheekfully.

"With a grandfather who looks a lot like Non?... Again, that's a grandfather who doesn't seem to have a good personality. I don't want to see you..."

In proclaiming such a thing, it's still like recognizing that everything is a trap to induce alarm.

And Uvezd goes on to say:

"But if so... doesn't it make sense to hide it anymore? Hehe... ma'am, young man. Don't fall."

The next moment I said that, a vortex of magic hidden behind the old man's body was scattered around him.

Intense, enormous amounts of magic.

It was a greater and darker magic than any sorcerer Lulu had ever seen in this world.

And I also feel very aggressive in nature.

Magic exerts pressure on the entire arena, depriving those less resistant to magic of their consciousness.

Even though it was before the game started, about a third of the audience in the venue seemed to be losing their minds if they noticed.

"You're a hell of a grandpa..."

"Hmm... you won't tell me. The same thing - no, the bigger things, the Lord could do it. Shui and Yumis said, I don't want to believe that there are people in this world with such absurd magic.... Non said he wanted to abstain earlier. I'm serious about that. I really want to fight monsters like the Lord. Tell me where the Akane Mage is. I want to run away and sleep in a futon in my own house."

I guess I really think so around saying that with a disgusting face.

However, there is no doubt that there is no will.

His eyes are clearly full of temper, and he feels a strong pressure from his entire body that is different from what he just did.

"If I could, I'd like you to stay asleep too... you sure you don't want to abstain?

"That's what I'm saying, don't be stupid. He's the chief of the clan. Anyway, if you're going to show a lot of battle, I'm sorry to hear that you've avoided battle with the clans. I've never felt this much fear, even when the demons came at me as a herd, but let's fight because I think we've been given another good opportunity to be serious. Give up and lend this old man his breasts, young man."

"Normally the other way around...... make way for the young man, Grandpa"

Much of the magic from Uvezd involved Lulu's magic, and a tornado with violet electricity swirling on stage was about to form even though the game had not yet begun.

The excitement of the spectators gathered in the arena also culminated, when the signal I finally waited for resonated in the arena.

"... Begin!

And the game begins.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"Is that one famous?

That's what he asked Yumis, who is watching the game with him.

During the qualifying period, Gran and Yumis, who were watching in a special viewing seat set up for the chief deputy chief of the clan (Klan), also want to feel the enthusiasm of the venue immediately in the main election, and they decide to watch the game every year in the arena seats for the main election.

"Uvezdo-Angel's grandfather is the chief of his family (Klan)" The Truth About Beauty (Bourus sortida) ". Famous, too. They say almost all common sorcery can be used, and in addition they even have their own technique. Having said that, it seems that no one has seen it yet... because I rarely find anyone who would have fought with his grandfather by magic."

"So is it because that grandfather is the most powerful sorcerer in the world?

"No, that's not why. In the country, except for the chief court magician, who may be the strongest, because other countries have the same class of magicians, and that grandfather might have a worse share if he had his own surgery ceremony in addition to that. It just depends on what kind of proprietary surgery ceremony that Grandpa would have. In some cases, he's not the most likely one."

Listening to it, Iris understood that Uvezd's prowess was undoubtedly top notch as a magician, but he didn't know if it was the strongest, not unlikely, but he wouldn't know if those who were seen as the strongest in reality would not have fought each other.

Actually, it could be more complicated.

Because it is not uncommon for the inferior to prevail over the superior, and always referring to the status of the strong is a substitute.

Still, however, there will be no doubt that the strength of Uvezd is what everyone in the King's capital says he will admit.

Besides, Illis also felt nostalgic for Uvezd, just like Lulu.

"... you look just like Grandpa Mutos..."

One near the former Demon King who was usually a favorite and scholar.

He was an old man of such a nature that he was a little nervous or never wanted anyone to touch his collection, but his strength was real and he was also more cunning and known than that.

He is also excellent as a teacher, many have learned magic from him, and Iris has also been taught that.

Such resemblance to him means nothing more than to say that Uvezd is not a glimmer.

Mutos was also a less sensual person of good and evil who valued results than good and evil of means.

Lulu isn't really the type to use tangled hands, and he's not good at that kind of opponent.

But still, Lulu was once a demon king.

With his magic and his power, he led the devil tribe.

Convinced that he would never lose to a human (human) sorcerer, though similar to his former side, Iris decided to watch with faith in Lulu's victory.
