Breakthrough with the Forbidden Master

Chapter 131 – Introductions

Translated by: Sads07

In addition to the representatives of each dojo, a total of 16 people will compete for victory, including external contestants who participate on the recommendation of Jamdi’el and others.

A lottery will be drawn to decide the matchups of the tournament.

However, unlike the time of the previous game, the lottery is not drawn in front of a large crowd, but it seems that the lottery is first drawn in a place like a waiting room and then announced to the gathering spectators afterwards.

“Right, Machio Proteen. No.16. It will be the eighth match in the first round.”

As the contestants continued to draw lots and their names were being recorded on the blank tournament table, I remembered the time of the previous match.

At that time, in order to fight Rival, I flipped the lottery over and picked a number, and I pulled the number 1.

But this time...

“Next Earth Lagan”

“Osu. Hmm... Whoa... number one.”

“Got it, Earth Lagann, No.1. You will be facing José Drag in the first round, match one.”

“...... haha.”

This time I drew it myself. The same number.

And the opponent was that dude.

『Were you aiming for that?』

“If possible... I hoped.”

『Fufufufu, you drew it yourself. Well, tis both luck and skill.』

Tre’ainar was also grinning. He seemed to be in a good mood.

“Humph!”

And the moment he realized he was going to face me in the first round, my opponent had a clearly unpleasant look on his face.

“Heh.”

But I’m happy with this.

Because if he faced Mr. Machio in the first round, I wouldn’t be able to hit him with my own hands.

I don’t want to let my guard down.

But I have a general idea of what he’s capable of.

That’s why I don’t want to bully the weak.

It’s just that I won’t feel better if I don’t give him a single shot.

“Well, then the table is decided! These are the matchups.”

Then, all the participants finished drawing the lottery, and the completed match table was posted on the wall.

I guess I’ll be facing Mr. Machio in the finals.

In a way, it’s an ideal combination. I’m not sure about the others.

“Now, in the order of this matchup, the host will call everyone out for introductions, so we will ask all of them to appear in the arena once. After that, the first two fighters of the opening round will remain in the arena and have their match.”

“Osu.”

“Hah!”

“Just so you know, the rules are anything but killing and grievous injury to the opponent! That’s all for the explanation! Good luck!”

It was a fairly simple explanation of the rules. I felt like there were a few in the previous match, but anyway, this one seemed more a pure struggle.

“Fufu, you and I ended up on completely opposite mountains.”

“Yeah. See you in the finals, as promised!”

“...... Hou...”

When the tournament officials finished the explanation, Mr. Machio came over and spoke to me.

Indeed, we’re on exact opposites. But I was fine with that.

And finally......

[Well, ladies and gentlemen! Thank you for joining us and welcome to the Arcane True Zenith Style Fighting Tournament!!]

At last, the host of the event started things off outside.

[And now, I would like to launch this competition between 16 men who will determine the pinnacle of martial arts in this country! Please watch to the end!]

“”””””UUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHH!!!!””””

It’s quite exciting. It’s not as big as the Imperial Capital, but the passion isn’t lost.

It felt like the ground was shaking a little bit.

[Now, I will introduce the men who will compete in order of the matchups! Men among men, come on down!!]

“”””””UUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHH!!!!””””

[Well, let’s start with this guy!!]

The flaring enthusiasm hit my skin. There’s no way you won’t get fired up with this.

With a waning expression, the dude, who’s about to be sent flying by me, had a look that seemed to say “Dear Me” on his face. To start with, aren’t you a man??

“Whoa, there’s Earth! Fight on!”

“Big brother, let’s go! Show us the results of that ‘Special Training’ with me!”

“Go for it, go for it, go!”

“Best of luck ...”

“Go, Earth!”

“Ora, for the win!”

“Hang in there!”

“Fight, Earth!”

And the moment I stepped into the arena, there was a huge roar of excitement from a part of the audience.

Seemed everyone came to see and cheer for me.

Hmm?

“Ahaha, this is a bit awkward, isn’t it?”

“No, it’s fine, Big Sister. The High Priestess also said that this is the proper attire for cheering, right?”

“Fight on! Fight on!”

“I, I’m a little embarrassed, but...”

That’s?! Similar to the outfit that Sadiz wore when she was cheering for me at the Commemorative Match!?

Waving ball-shaped tassel-like tools or “pompons” in each hand, the sisters, plus Sadiz, were in blue sleeveless tops and short skirts.

Oh, even Amae.

“Fufufu, it’s Earth.”

“Lady Kron, do not you wave your hand, okay?”

“I know~ Not just Earth, but today we watch everyone with an impartial eye!”

“Splendid.”

At the top of the audience seats, Kron sat in a big throne-like chair with Jamdi’el by her side.

For a moment, she seemed about to wave her hand at me with a smile, but perhaps she was cautioned by Jamdi’el, she immediately withdrew her hand.

[Will the sudden appearance of this comet be a bad omen or hope for the future? All the numbers he produced at the dojo are top class in the rankings! An unknown powerhouse who even sparred with that strongest Machio! Now is the time to show us what you’re really made of! The ‘Supernova’, Earth Lagann!]

And with a loud cheer, my... Introduction or whatever!? Who would have thought!?

However, the audience seemed very excited anyway, so I stepped out.

And all the people of the packed venue, who saw me, cheered with joy.

It felt good.

But such introductions, are you going to do it for all of us?

Somehow, he just kept that tension going until the end. Wow, that host is amazing.

[And there you have it! These 16 men will battle for the title of strongest! And you all. will burn that sight into your memoriiiiiiiiiieeeesss!!!!]

“”””””UUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHH!!!!””””

[And now for the opening match! Both are external contestants! However, their talents are at the top of the next generation! It is ‘Supernova Earth’ vs. ‘The Great Sage of Heaven, José’!!]

Well, anyway. It’s high time.

“Kyaah, isn’t it José all of a sudden?”

“And I didn’t expect that person in the first round.”

“Easy victory then!”

“José, you’re the winner!”

“Senior! Please remind the frog in the well who feels proud of uniting all those dropouts!”

The other side, too, has a way of disgusting me to the very end.

Soon, I can barely wait for the gong.
