Chapter 214 Outsider

Part 2

It was natural that Luke was interested in the Supreme Martial Art Festival.

Luke thought about it for a while with a difficult look on his face, but then said as if he had made up his mind.

“Thanks for your concern, Cry. But I–I’d rather participate than watching it!” (Luke)

“O-oh?” (Cry)

“I’m still immature, I can’t even cut dimensions. But I’m sure I’ll get something out of it if I kill someone strong enough to participate in the tournament. I’m sure about it!” (Luke)

There was a fiery glow in his crimson eyes. Indeed…… Indeed, Luke would say that. But I doubt they are going to let you kill each other no matter how much you want to…….

But I don’t know what you should do to participate in the Supreme Martial Arts Festival.

“But I don’t know how you can participate though?” (Cry)

The tickets I received seemed to be VIP tickets, but tickets to the tournament are sold to the general public as well. But the right to participate in the tournament is not sold to the general public. It is a prestigious tournament, so the qualifications must be tough.

But Luke says powerfully.

“I know how. Invitations to the Supreme Martial Art Festival are sent to the top winners of the local fighting tournaments, famous Hunters, and renowned warriors.” (Luke)

“Then it is impossible after all.” (Cry)

The Supreme Martial Arts Festival is just around the corner. Luke nodded his head in agreement with me.

“In other words, if you slay the guy holding an invitation, it will drop.” (Luke)

“!?” (Cry)

That…… Does it work like this? No, no… No matter how you think about it, it’s not like this… Not, like, this.

How could he have grown up in the same hometown as me, and yet lose his sensibilities to such an extent…… I wanted to complain to Luke’s “Shisho (Mentor)”, but it was more likely that Luke’s “Shisho (Mentor)” would complain to me.

It is also touchy whether you can call him having a Hunter’s brain as he says that he will defeat someone just because that person has something he wants. While I was at a loss as to how to appease him, Luke said forcefully.

“I can’t stay like this. I’m going to go slice up whoever comes to my mind.” (Luke)

“Ah” (Cry)

By the time I said that, Luke was already gone. It is one of Luke’s weaknesses that he doesn’t listen to people properly.

………… Well, he will probably use a wooden sword, so I guess he will be okay. Luke’s notoriety has already spread quite a bit. He should be able to defend himself.

Or rather, there is nothing I can do about it. Next, let’s go check with Liz.

§

“Eh? You’re going to the Supreme Martial Art Festival!? I’m going too~! I’m going to beat to death whoever’s coming to my mind~!” (Liz)

“Ah” (Cry)

Liz disappeared. It was a wonderful movement, as if she had disappeared into thin air.

“…………” (Cry)

I wonder why our members are so quick-tempered.

The Smart who was not so quick-tempered said as if she was exasperated.

“Seriously… Beating someone to death…… Onee-chan is so violent.” (Sytry)

“Un, un, you are right.” (Cry)

However, you did drain Her Imperial Princess’ blood as much as you wanted, didn’t you? I am not going to forget that so soon.

“Even though it is not so hard to get a spot… As it isn’t like there are only a few participants.” (Sytry)

“Eh!?” (Cry)

“We have already made a name for ourselves, so if we bribe――If we give the selection committee just one more push, they will ask us to participate. There are usually a lot of sudden entrants, so it shouldn’t be a problem.” (Sytry)

“U-Un, un, you are right.” (Cry)

Sytry tilted her head with her usual smile…… Apparently, Sytry-chan was also eager to fight.

Could it be that everyone but me will participate? Lucia is surprisingly competitive, and if everyone is going to participate, Anthem will participate too. I can’t understand their feelings at all though――.

“Do you want to participate in the Supreme Martial Art Festival so much?” (Cry)

“Eh? ………… We can’t? I thought this would be the best chance to gain fame.” (Sytry)

Mmmmh, so ambitious.

However, if you think about it, this is a natural conclusion. In fact, it would be stranger if the first thing a High-Level Hunter thinks about when they hear about the Supreme Martial Arts Festival is to spectate it.

I changed my mind. I was going to watch the tournament with Luke and the others, but I think it would be a great idea to cheer for them. After all, this was a martial arts tournament――Just a tournament. Unlike usual, there was little danger to your life.

If they were to win, Luke and the others would have a bright future. I would be proud to be their childhood friend.

“No, that’s not the case. Right――Since we are going all out, let’s go with the intention of dominating this tournament with our Party.” (Cry)

“Maaaah……! I think it is a wonderful idea. I will start working on it right now!” (Sytry)

It went a little differently than what I planned, but I am looking forward to it. I should cheer for them grandly.

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

Love how both Luke and Liz brain works!

Just go beat up some guy who has a ticket and it will magically drop on the ground!

Is it gonna end with Cry winning the tournament because he is just gonna fight someone from his Party and they just gonna surrender to make Cry win? XD

Tchao à plus!
