Today, there were more people in the school than usual and it was noisy.
Students were selling food and miscellaneous goods at food stalls on both sides of the main street leading from the school entrance to the school building.
We were heading to the arena, listening to the constant loud bargaining.
“Wow … there are a lot of people …”
“Hmm, mogu mogu. After all, the oak skewers are mogu mogu. It’s very delicious.”
“Hey Muskel, don’t talk while eating. The meat is going everywhere.”
Lancelot jumps away from Muskel, who speaks while eating skewers.
We, the members of the S class, were walking while laughing at these two people.
In my previous life, I had never visited food stalls with my friends like this, and I wasn’t interested in school festivals, but this is also quite fun.
The martial arts festival, which is the centerpiece of the Adventurer School Festival, is an event in which the majority of students participate.
It seems that most people are gathering from outside the school for that purpose.
The number of participants in the martial arts festival is about 300.
Qualifying rounds will be held today on the first day of the school festival, a tournament match will be held on the second day, and semifinals and finals matches will be held on the third day.
Today’s qualifying rounds will be divided by grade.
From tomorrow onwards, students of each grade who have won the qualifying round will be shuffled and made to fight.
Generally, the third grade person of S class will be the winner, but last year it was unusual as a second student grade won. This year, the person is in the third grade, so he is said to be the most promising winner.
How strong is he? I’m a little excited that I want to fight.
Seeing my expression, Rose grinned.
“Sirius, I got it. You’re looking forward to it, right?”
When it started, she was disappointed that she couldn’t see through my heart, saying that I didn’t want to participate.
In the qualifying rounds, five groups of about 20 people will be formed. Then, each group will perform a battle royale, and the five winners will pass the qualifying round.
And we came to see the grouping bulletin board.
“Gee … I’m not in the same group as Sirius …”
“Ah … Airi-chan, what about you?”
“Don’t mind”
“Do not mind……”
“… Don’t mind”
“Hey, what’s that treatment?”
Airi, who had been put in the same group as me, had a stern look.
And everyone is comforting her by hitting her shoulder.
Isn’t it terrible for me?
“It can’t be helped … Maybe all the participants will hit the bag …”
“Airi, you’re kidding, right? Hey? Your face is scary, stop?”
I don’t think it would be possible for me to hit the bag with all of them. Perhaps.
“I will do it someday.”
“That’s true …”
“Airi, let’s do our best together!”
“… Yeah. I’ll do my best!”
Airi had determined eyes for some reason.
◆
“Then, let’s start the martial arts festival!”
“” “” Uoooooooo !! “” “”
The venue was filled with cheers when a girl student who was very well-dressed and had a cute voice acting as an announcer declared the start.
The fences of the arena were squeaky, and the aisles on the outer circumference were full of standing people.
Since our first grade was the first battle, we were looking at such a landscape from the bench in front of the arena.
“Wow, that’s a lot of people …”
“Are you nervous?”
“Well, a little bit! I may not be as brave as Sirius!”
“I’m nervous too.”
Saying that, with a bitter smile and scratching her head, Airi unexpectedly looked at me.
“I’m already feeling my stomach.”
After saying that, she held her belly and was looking a little nervous.
“Fufu, I’m nervous even with Sirius. That might have made me feel a little better. Thank you.”
“I’m also human, I’m nervous.”
“You don’t seem to be the same person”
“Because you are the same person, right?”
It seems that the first round started while playing with Airi. Muskel will participate in the first round.
“Well, I’ll go.”
“Ah, do your best Muskel”
Twenty students stand apart in the arena. Among them, Muskel’s height and physique stand out from the rest.
A nearby student also glanced at Muskel and was shocked.
Yeah, I understand that feeling. But you can’t break through the qualifying round without defeating him, right?
“Then, I will introduce myself, A class in the second grade, Julia Marvel along with the instructors! Then, the first round of the first grade qualification … Start!”
At the commentary seat, the beautiful female student Yulia and some instructors were sitting.
As the match began, Muskel performed a “training” in a muscle pose, watching the surroundings.
Attracted by Muskel, the students move away from their surroundings.
At a position slightly away from Muskel, the battle had begun immediately.
It seems that the swordsman is making haste on the magician.
“Oops! The sword fighters have begun to move immediately! The key to the victory of the sword fighters is how to prevent the magicians from using powerful magic!”
Muskel had a mysterious look on his face when he saw no one around him.
No, it’s inevitable.
“Funu, if no one comes, I have no choice but to go from here.Muscle impact O! “
–Dogoon! !!
When Muskel swung his fist, the students nearby were blown away, sending them off. By the way, you are set to be sent off if you lose consciousness or life. Of course, because it is a pseudo space, you never really die.
All the students in the arena, including the students who were fighting away from Muskel, looked at Muskel with their eyes wide open.
“Wow, what the hell! The impact of the punch made seven students incapable of fighting in an instant! He is … a first grade S-class, Muskel … !!”
“S class …”
“Ba, monster … muscle monster …”
The students in the arena were shaking.
“See, everyone! Let’s beat him first!”
“That’s right! If everyone works together, it’s easy !!”
Muskel was rushing into the flock of students with his arms outstretched.
“‘Double lariat’ !!”
Also, five or six students were sent off.
“Wow, amazing Muskel! he cut half the number of people by himself in no time!”
“Look, everyone will take it!”
“” Woah !!! “”
-As a result, the participants were annihilated by the rampage of Muskel.
“And the winner! Muskel!”
“Muhhhhh! It’s a muscle victory!”
Muskel, who had many burns and lacerations on his body due to attack magic, left with a calm laugh.
“Muskel is really ridiculous …”
Everyone nodded with a bitter face to Airi’s mutter.
