410 ā Calculation
Itās early in the morning, the day before the tournament.
Niku and I were using the arena for one last touch on our preparation.
āOi, Kehma, your timing just now isā¦ā
āah, I see⦠itās better to make it go slowerā
By the way, I ask some advice from Sebas, and since then he has seen my fighting style, and it seems heās mellowed down after that, we are friends now.
Thanks to his advice my fighting skill has improved, my movement without Golem Clothes also getting better, in combination with my firepower it seems like I had a minimum ability to participate in the tournament now. At least Sebas has said so.
(Participants usually must go through a qualifier rounds then you can enter main events. But since you are an exchange student from other countries we exempt you from that)
In the case of Niku, she will at least reach 8th place or higher, with that our chance to win [Godās Pajama] is increased. And Iām still hiding my trump card (that only I aware of) I think our chance to get the prize is pretty good.
By the way, Dungeon cores will participate in different tournaments ā separate from this tournament where the second prize is [Godās Pajama]. The first-place winner prize is the rights to challenge the Great Demon Lord (core number 6), itās a prize for a battle maniac, for me [Godās Pajama] is a better prize, no doubt about that.
āHonetsly, I didnāt think that puppy will grow so fast in this short amount of timeā¦ā
Fufu, isnāt sheās awesome? Niku won against Sebas in today mock battle.
That Niku started running around the arena at neck-breaking speed to build up her strength even more.
Also, she can stop her breathing for a minute now. It looks like sheās been training after been told by Aidi that [Breathing is weakness], itās kind of funny that she actually can practice that.
āOi Kehma, who that puppy really is? Where do you find her?ā
āSheās my hugging pillow, well, before⦠she was cheap beast slave that I saved from banditsā
āShe is cheapā¦? is it the Empire levels that too high? Or poor judgement from slave traderā¦. I wonder which one is itā¦ā
She has the growth potential which no normal beastman had; my support may also boosting that growth.
Moreover, her clothes are lined up by Orichalcum grain that I produce every day. Itās a new safety procedure. So I just replied to him with a smile.
I wonder if I can [Godās Pajamas] without the need to negotiate with the winner, I was sure my face is making a perverted grin right now.
Aidi, Rokuko and Ichika come to us.
āSheās really did itā
āYes my Lady, she did take one winning from meā
āWell⦠Master, are prepared to be punished later?ā
āā¦tsk, for sure my Ladyā
Sebas is annoyed. Sending that Sebas a sidelong glance, Rokuko come to me and hands me a towel.
āHere Kehma, you are sweating a lot⦠you tried really hard this time.ā
āWell yeah, because this time [Godās Pajama] is the prize, I need it for my daily good night sleepā
āYou really spare no effort if itās for your sleepā
I wiped the sweat from my face with a towel I received from Rokuko. When I returned it to her I said [My back is also sweaty] she then put the towel in [storage] and then cast [Clean] on meā¦ā¦ā¦. wait, from the beginning isnāt [Clean] would suffice?
āAfterall⦠tomorrow is the tournament, but I donāt have enough confidence to get [Godās Pajama]ā
āeh? What are you talking about? Arenāt you only need to give up at the final and get second prizeā
Rokuko said that like thatās a matter of fact, of course, if I could just do that, then I wonāt have this problem in the first place.
āDo you really think me or Niku can win all the way to final?ā
āOf course, Iām trained with you! Iām confident that you will make it to the finalā
āItās not for certain Rokuko, I learned a lot after sparring with Sebas. this [Elemental Shot] can be evaded by people on his caliber, can I really avoid people like Sebas until I reach the final?ā
Thatās the fact, Sebas can avoid this shot. And once I missed, he will immediately jump in for the counter-attack, I had a plan to leave the retreat maneuver to clothes golem, but I just canāt aim in roller-coaster-like movement caused by clothes golem. Itās easier to aim while I am standing still.
As a result, I can only do once or two decent shots while he approaches me. If only I can use Rokukoās [Elemental Flash] idea, the fight will flow in a better direction.
āe? What are you talking about? You donāt have to ignore those attacks, just shoot at them. ā
āWhat am I talking about? What are you talking about? I canāt just ignore their attackā
āā¦I thought you going to borrow my blanket?ā
ā¦eh?
āā¦blanket? did you mean [Godās Comforter]?ā
āOfCourse it is, why would I lend you normal blanket?ā
Wait. That is.., if I can use [Godās Comforter] thenā¦
āJust a minute Rokuko, are you sure you can ignore the attack with [Godās Comforter]?ā
āYes, [father] has guaranted me that the [Godās Comforter] has an absolute defenseā
ā Attack Invalidation? That Comforter is too overpowered.
In other words, I can use the blanket and just barrage my enemy with magic, I will become an invincible magic turret, or better, just wear it like a poncho, and you can be a magic tank.
Therefore if the enemy can be defeated by [Elemental Shoot], then you can undoubtedly win the tournament. Said Rokuko.
Afterall thereās no chance that I will run out of ammo. My recovery may fall a little behind the [Elemental Shot] cost, but that is the case without calculating the [Godās Comforter] recovery effect. Hahaha.
ā⦠Isnāt that cheating?ā
āThereās an example case like Aidi, if itās counts as cheating when you use magic tools created by my [father] then Magic Sword user should be prohibited? Aidi is Magic Sword type core and she is [father] creation isnāt it?ā
ā⦠That was pushing it, but valid logicā
āAlso, this tournament accepted the use of golem right? What stopping you from using magic armor?ā
ā⦠that actually makes senseā
Rokuko theory about Aidi⦠I donāt see any problem with that.
⦠yeah, I can get it with brute force.
To think that I was actually preparing to get [Godās Pajama] by negotiating with the winner.
Before I know it I was influenced by this Demon Kingomās way too, Maybe all this Udon has eroded my brain.
āAidi groups seems to go to challenge Great Demon Lord, while we are aiming at the [Godās Pajama], we can just give up first prize to them, right Kehma?ā
āYeah, you are rightā
But this makes me feel like Iām cheating, though it suits me as cowardly Dungeonās Master. Letās aim for second place and get that [Godās Pajama].
āā¦Master, what should I do?ā
Niku stopped running and look at me.
Is she anxious because I can get Godās Pajama without relying on her? Well⦠Niku is mine and Rokuko bodyguard, itās never wrong for her to get stronger.
āNiku⦠you are you, why donāt you aim as high as possible? ⦠you can get any prize you wantā
āunderstoodā
āNiku, just go for it! I know you can win thisā
āYes, I will do my bestā
⦠No, I wonāt say it easy, because thereās always a possibility that something will happen, so it may be still difficult to win this tournament.
