Chapter 146: A Reasonless Battle, Its Reason
[space_man][space_man]On a clear day, the arena was packed with many adventurers. In the center of the arena, Eld and Al stood facing each other.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”So, what’s the reason for this situation? What’s going on?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Marie, Layla, and Moira, the three who had heard the commotion. Marie called out to Keirack, who was watching the center from the passage.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Ahaha. Actually……”
[space_man]
[space_man]
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”By the way, I heard that the two of you had a big fight during your academy days. Who was stronger?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Keirack, who was leisurely drinking tea on the sofa, asked as Eld was helping Al with his paperwork as usual. The two thought for a moment.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”If we were fighting normally, Eld would have won. He had the top grades in combat class.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”But I couldn’t match Al’s strategy, so I don’t know what would have happened if we had continued in the central plaza instead of the training grounds.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]The two pondered, recalling each other’s fighting strength.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Hee~. So who’s stronger now?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Then it’s definitely me. Al’s only doing paperwork and not training, right?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”What did you say? You don’t know how much I train every day!”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Normally, it would have ended with a 10-minute quarrel and laughter, but today was different.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Fuu. If you think you’re that much stronger, why don’t we actually fight?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Keirack stood up.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Well then, I’ll arrange the arena and let everyone know.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]With that, Keirack left the Commander’s office.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Eh?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Seriously……”
[space_man]
[space_man]
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”That’s what happened.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Keirack gave a wry smile.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”No, no, why are you saying it like they’re helpless children? It’s clearly Keirack-denka’s fault, isn’t it?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Well~, it’ll be interesting to see who wins~.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Keirack laughed it off.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Well, there’s nothing we can do now, Marie-senpai.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Layla said as she took out a chair from subspace.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”I brought chairs since it wouldn’t be good to stand the whole time like last time.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Layla only took out three chairs.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Huh? Is this the pattern where there’s none for me?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Yes. I didn’t expect Keirack-denka to be here.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Layla said with a smile. Instead, Moira took out a cushion from subspace.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Please use this if you like.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Eh, is it okay? As expected of Saintess-sama. Thank you.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]He received the cushion and sat down casually on the ground. It felt somewhat uncomfortable.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”You don’t have to be so considerate.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Marie said in exasperation.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”It’s something I made as a break from embroidery practice. If it’s still in good shape when you stand up, I’ll mass-produce them and give them to everyone.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”What on earth did you make……”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Moira responded with a smile.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Marie sighed and turned her gaze to the center. At that moment, she saw a familiar deep red hair in the audience, Jilva.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Oh my, I was wondering what happened since I haven’t seen her at all, but she does come to watch at times like this.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Did you say something?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Layla was preparing tea as usual.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”No, just talking to myself.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Marie turned her gaze back to the center.
