Three days after Berkut’s consultation, she, once more, ca to , who was busy restoring the ruins.
「What’s up? I advised Vart-kun and Valto-kun just in case though.」
For reasons, Berkut beca a musclebrain who wouldn’t recognize a marriage partner unless they were stronger than her. Even if Vart-kun and Valto-kun courted her, Berkut didn’t think about marriage because she was still young. Or so I told them, but……
「I thought I convinced them though.」
I told them that the still-adolescent Berkut of long-living Aligerous Tribe wasn’t considering things like marriage yet. I told them that and those two boys nodded.
「So, what did those two do?」
「Takumi-sama, please listen to this. Those two idiots thought it was fine as long as they’re strong, and they made a whole ss involving the young n in the tribe.」
Seriously, those two made trouble by involving the young n of the tribe, proposing a tournant with them, saying that the champion could marry Berkut.
「Why a tournant? More like, the champion gets married, ignoring Berkut’s will?」
「Hey, aren’t they so dumb? Still, those guys got so into it and talked about special training and stuff for the tournant.」
「Uwaa~」
Idiots. What a bunch of idiots.
Berkut should have said it. That she doesn’t like those that aren’t stronger than her. Rather, Berkut was the strongest among the youth.
There was a reason why Berkut was strong. The reason was because my party mbers were all girls, with exception to myself. When we go hunting in monster nests, Berkut who was the sa gender was brought along. Sophia and Akane found her cute, so they brought her to dungeons too.
As a result, her skill levels were far higher and she was strong in the tribe.
「Hmm, so will you go round-robin and beat everyone, Berkut?」
「T-t-that’s it!」
Berkut yelled loudly and clapped.
「There’s no aning in a tournant without . It’s the sa if it’s decided that the champion and I would fight at the end. Yeah, that’s good. I’ll fight everyone!」
「Well said. Then I, a master of the spear, would train you earnestly with Maria.」
Then Sophia clasped Berkut’s hands in hers and promised to help.
Seriously though, if she gets any stronger than this, no one would be able to catch up to Berkut.
And so, the first Berkut Martial Tournant would be held. However, the round robin format beca an absurd VS Berkut rule……
I worry for the n from the tribe after this is over.
On the hurriedly built stage, Berkut stood, clutching a spear.
「Now! Anyone co at !」
Uwaa, Berkut was so manly.
The total number of challengers from the Aligerous Tribe was 80. 80 n vs 1 young woman…… could they boast about it even if they won?
The first challenger attacked at Berkut with a spear in hand, but the spearhead was intercepted. The stunned challenger was then knocked out by Berkut’s counterattack, a hit to the chin using the blunt end of her spear.
「Next!」
Berkut, who instantly defeated the first challenger, demanded the next challenger to co.
The second challenger charged in as his weapon swung from the side. The attack was quickly thwarted and Berkut’s spear closed the gap in that instant, defeating the second challenger.
「Next!」
「Hey Sophia, you trained Berkut that much?」
「No, her level and skills were far different from those n, so sparring with Sophia and I was plenty.」
Uh, I think that if soone sparred with high leveled people like Sophia and Maria a lot, that alone would make them strong.
Among the challengers, not a single one was able to stand on stage for more than a minute. I wonder if I was the only one who felt sorry for the guys who were beat up in a single hit.
Among the steadily decreasing number of challengers, Vart-kun and Valto-kun were waiting at the very back.
「Heh, they’re definitely waiting for Berkut to get tired, aren’t they?」
「Yes, it’s truly ridiculous there are no potions. Do they not think that Berkut would hate these?」
「Seriously.」
Sophia and Maria’s cold gazes pierced Vart-kun and Valto-kun.
「Do your best!」
「Berkut, go for it!」
「Beat them to hell!」
「Do them in nya!」
Today’s tournant was being held on a hurriedly built stage on the Sky Island, and our party and the tribe were the only ones spectating. And of course, our party was cheering for Berkut.
I get Kaede and Laeva’s cheers, but I don’t know what to think about Akane and Lulu-chan’s.
「Ah, Valto-kun is next.」
I just took my eyes off the stage for a bit, and before I knew it, only those two were remaining.
Valto-kun charged at Berkut with desperation, but backed away. He can’t win like that…… see? He didn’t even last 5 seconds.
「I’ll win against Berkut and marry her!」
「Sleeptalk when you’re asleep!」
The last to co up was Vart-kun, but for so reason, he was carrying a sword, not a spear.
「Hey, did anyone teach Vart-kun swordsmanship?」
「No, I’m not sure.」
「I’m pretty sure he said that the sword was cooler.」
Sophia denied teaching him how to use the sword, and Kaede told his reason.
「He would already lose in terms of level and talent even under normal circumstances, what is he doing choosing a specialized weapon that would be even more disadvantageous for him?」
When I said that in my shock, everyone nodded in agreent.
「Yaaahhhhhh!!」
In three steps, Berkut calmly and repeatedly jabbed her spear at high speed towards Vart-kun who raised his sword overhead and was charging at low altitudes.
「Guhee!!」
Vart-kun rolled all the way to the edge and lay motionless. When Valzak-san, who was refereeing, raised Berkut’s arm, cheers erupted from the won and children of the tribe.
「……I guess it was a success as entertainnt?」
「……I suppose.」
I don’t know if there will ever be a second, but the first ever Berkut Martial Tournant ended.
