Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure Chapter 1680: Sacred Duel (3)

"The format for the Sacred Duel is like this..."

I didn’t actually need him to explain how the Sacred Duel worked since I already knew how it worked from seeing it in the ga.

Though in real life, it seed like it took far more ti than it did in the ga.

This was only natural since it was harder to organize people, especially on the level of an entire nation gathering in one place.

It wasn’t just the representatives from each tribe, there were also those that ca along to watch. That was the only reason why there were so many different demi human tribes that were gathered here.

It was all about pride for their tribe.

Once he finished explaining, King Kashou asked, "Do you want to talk to each of the tribes?"

I was surprised to hear him ask this, but I could see the reason why he did it.

It was simply because he knew that I wanted to ask them about their local beast gods.

In that case, there was no reason for to deny this as it would give an idea of if there were useful relics in the Mofu Mofu Kingdom.

Seeing that I agreed, King Kashou didn’t waste any ti in leading into a banquet hall.

When we arrived, I was surprised to find that there were demi humans of different tribes that were gathered. At the sa ti, it was clear that this was a banquet held for the contestants of the Sacred Duel.

After all, all of them were covered in muscles.

The demi humans relied on their powerful bodies to fight, so it was only natural that the warriors of the demi human race to be covered in muscles like this.

If I didn’t know any better, I would have thought that I had walked into a bodybuilding competition.

No, when I looked closely, I could see that there were a few people that were competing in flexing their muscles. So to a certain extent, I was indeed at a bodybuilding competition.

After we ca in, most of their attention turned to us.

It seed that the one that was the most popular wasn’t King Kashou who was the king of the Mofu Mofu Kingdom, but rather .

It seed that all of them were looking at as if they wanted to see right through .

I didn’t know what they knew about or what they had heard about that would make them interested in like this. But it was clear that they had heard so things with the way that they looked at .

After a mont of silence, there were a few of them that suddenly approached .

With the way that they approached , I didn’t know what they were doing.

It was the sa for the guards that were behind , so they wanted to step forward as if they were going to protect . But I stopped them before they could actually stand in front of .

If we were to show this kind of hostility before we talked to them, it would ruin our chances of getting closer with the demi humans.

Once they were in front of , towering over ...these demi humans suddenly...

"Thank you for saving our families."

All of them suddenly bowed their heads to which caught off guard.

I really didn’t know what to say when all of these large demi humans were bowing their heads to .

So in the end, I just awkwardly said, "I haven’t done anything worth this kind of treatnt, please raise your heads."

However, none of them moved when I said this.

They just continued bowing their heads as they said, "If it wasn’t for the things that you’ve done, then we would have lost our families to the disaster. At the sa ti, you were the one that helped cure our families and purified our lands."

It wasn’t just that received this kind of treatnt.

There was another group of demi humans that went over to thank those from the Holy Empire and my guards.

It seed that they were among the people that we had helped during the ti we went around the Mofu Mofu Kingdom purifying the land and curing the people.

When they acted like this, it really was hard for us to reject them.

So in the end, we accepted their thanks and let them do what they wanted.

It wasn’t as if I could stop them with the way that they were acting.

When it was finally over, I was able to finally have the chance to talk to them.

Only when I asked them about their strength...

"You want to see how strong we are?"

"Let us show you right now!"

"Anything for our saviour!"

It didn’t take long for them to bring tables over and start arm wrestling with each other as if they wanted to show off to .

I couldn’t help revealing a bitter smile seeing them act this way, but it was hard for to stop them with how enthusiastic they were. It really didn’t seem like I would be able to convince them with words alone with how they acted.

So I just had to watch as they perford their arm wrestling match for .

When they were finally satisfied, that was when I was finally able to ask them a few questions about the local gods.

"Gods that we worship? Or ancestors that we revere?"

The demi humans seed confused when they heard this, but they quickly showed that the reason that they said this was different from what I thought. It was because this was a common thing for them, so they were confused that I was specifically asking about this.

"Of course we have ancestors that we revere. In fact, we even brought our tribe’s ancestral relics along for this Sacred Duel."

After saying this, they pulled out these relics to show .

When they did, I couldn’t help being surprised by what they took out.
