[19] (EP-78.1) Fight Of The Tigers #4
078 – Fight Of The Tigers #4
Boing-.
Elga’s cool thighs were very soft and elastic.
I guess it was because no matter how well-trained her muscles were, she was still a woman.
Or was it because she was a fantasy novel character, so science didn’t apply?
In fact, going by how much power she could dish out, wouldn’t it be normal for her thigh to be thicker than my torso…?
I was truly amazed at the fact that this smooth and slender muscle could produce so much force.
“Hey, let’s go eat… What are you doing?”
Elga said without looking back.
Maybe Elga couldn’t read my intentions, so I slowly removed her dolphin pants.
“No, you can’t!”
Pak-!
I felt an unexpected pain at the back of my hand.
Elga slapped my palm away like driving away a greedy cat.
Rather than the tingling sensation in my hand, I was more shocked that Elga rejected the temptation.
‘Why?’
I wanted to ask her that, but I was afraid of hearing things like “I will not do it with you anymore.” Yet, what Elga said was unexpected.
“I have a match tomorrow, so you can’t.”
“A match?”
What match?
And, fighting against each other? I couldn’t help but be stunned by the unexpected information.
“What kind of match is it?”
“I don’t know either. They say that single-digit rankers should regularly pete against each other to establish a clear rank.”
“So there was a rule like that.”
“I have a promotion match tomorrow against the one in 4th place. I’m going to fight whoever they are.”
A promotion match.
Theo Gospel may not know, but Lee Seong-eum, who had lived in Korea, knew how important those words were.
If you had a promotion match, you naturally wanted to be in your best condition.
“However, I didn’t know that Elga-nim cared about things like the rankings.”
Elga was, so to speak, a seemingly carefree person. So it was surprising to me that she cared about something like school studies or rank.
On the contrary, Elga berated me for thinking that.
“Huh-? What are you talking about? If you can move up, you should move up!”
If you could move up, you should move up.
I might have said the exact same thing before fighting Efside. Hearing this, I felt a lot closer knowing that Elga had the same mindset as me.
“You’re fighting with the 4th place ranker, right? It’s one rank higher than Elga-nim’s.”
“Yes. Well, I’ll still win anyway.”
Elga was confident.
“I have to move up to 1st place soon. My father said that he’ll entrust the rulership of Borgia to me if I achieve 1st place.”
“That’s amazing!”
But I wondered if that was really possible? After all, no matter how powerful Elgar was, it wouldn’t be easy to achieve first place.
As far as I knew, Ark’s single-digit rankers were superhumans.
Those ranked from 1st to 9th.
Single-digit rankers were powerful in their own rights.
In fact, a member of the main Villain Hunter Party, Priest Arcana, was also an Ark student and probably a single-digit ranker as well.
In other words, each single-digit ranker had the stats befitting the main character in the novel or at least their colleague.
Elga was currently in 5th place, Mirna in 6th and Aira in 2nd. I didn’t know who Elga would be fighting, but they must be pretty strong.
Jirit-.
As I reflected, sudden regret began to envelop me.
Why didn’t I collect information about an obviously unique and significant group called the single-digit rankers? Would it make sense that I didn’t even know who was in 4th place?
No matter how busy I was lately, grasping the situation and information around me should be the basic element of survival.
It seemed that I’d been lax after leaving the Angmar Kingdom and ing to Ark.
“Anyway, I have a promotion match tomorrow so I can’t do that with you, okay?”
“Yes, of course, you have to thoroughly prepare for the promotion match.”
I answered fairly seriously, as I criticized myself for not knowing the name or any information of the 4th placer. Then Elga looked back while scratching her head in embarrassment.
“Hey, there’s no need to sulk.”
“Sulk?”
“Yes, did you need to answer that coldly?”
‘… What are you talking about?’
Then, a flash of lightning struck in my head.
It seemed that Elga had misunderstood my words by thinking that I was blaming her for refusing to get intimate.
