Lazy Dungeon Master - Chapter 413: watching the qualifier tournament
LDM 413 鈥?watching the qualifier tournament
鈥淲elcome back聽Kehma, Thank you for your hard work.鈥?/p>
鈥測eah I鈥檓 back, thank you.鈥?/p>
I finished beating them all and won.
I approach聽Rokuko聽in the audience.
鈥淐ongratulation for qualifying in your block聽Kehma, after this will be the next block turns.鈥?/p>
鈥淲hy not just use one day for the qualifier?鈥?/p>
鈥溾€ot enough fight(entertainment)鈥?/p>
鈥溾€s expected from Demon Kingdom citizen.鈥?/p>
Originally, I supposed to do this for three days鈥? the other blocks too. Well, they will proceed normally.
鈥淐ongratulation Master, will you give me Curry Bread to celebrate your victory?鈥?/p>
鈥淚chika, don鈥檛 you have something to give me instead? Well it鈥檚 okay.鈥?/p>
鈥渙h,聽Rokuko鈥檚聽Master, give me Chocolate Cornet.鈥?/p>
鈥淎idi, at least congratulate me first.鈥?/p>
I serve Curry Bread, Chocolate Cornet and Melon Bread to each of them.
Is the custom here is that the one who is celebrating is the one who gives out a present?
鈥淗ow Niku and聽Sebas聽doing?鈥?/p>
鈥淭hey are making good progress,聽Uzoh聽and聽Muzoh聽too.鈥?/p>
Rokuko聽answered my question while chewing on Melon Bread.
鈥淟ook, next one is聽Uzoh聽vs Niku.鈥?/p>
鈥淲e already won then.鈥?/p>
鈥淵eah, but let鈥檚 at least cheers them.鈥?/p>
We go to see Niku match while convinced of our victory. The Arena is divided by four areas, and there鈥檚 not much distance from each area.
Niku block has done its first round, and they are in the middle of the second round.
Originally, we meant to do quarter-final in the next day, semi-final and final in a day after tomorrow.
It seems that final and semi-final will be divided into four matches in one Arena.
I wonder鈥?what will happen to my block?
鈥淵ou are the聽winer聽of 2nd block.鈥?/p>
鈥淎h, I see, so it鈥檚 like that鈥︹€?/p>
鈥淩okuko, don鈥檛 you need to cheer the puppy?鈥?/p>
鈥渁h, you are right!鈥?/p>
I saw Niku and聽Uzoh聽facing each other.
Niku is as expressionless as ever, and she is quite calm, probably because she鈥檚 already getting used to this after her first match.
鈥淚鈥檓 indebted to聽Kehma, but I won鈥檛 go easy on you.鈥?/p>
鈥溾€︹€?/p>
They keep staring at each other, but there鈥檚 no killing aura between them, this feels more like a mock battle. Also, even if you don鈥檛 tell her you won鈥檛 go easy, she won鈥檛 underestimate you. And correction, she is not my child, but she indeed feels like a daughter to me.
鈥淜ehma, I will just say this once.鈥?/p>
鈥淲hat is it?鈥?/p>
鈥淣iku is also my child!鈥?/p>
Rokuko聽put a thumbs up and smiled. Perhaps she wants us to be recognized as a couple? I just send her a smile without confirming about that child matter, I never said Niku is my child in the first place.
鈥淥h, it鈥檚 begun.鈥?/p>
鈥淲ait, it鈥檚 embarrassing if you leave me hanging like that.鈥?/p>
Aside from聽Rokuko聽who鈥檚 now beet red, we had our attention to the Arena.
鈥淏egin!鈥?/p>
鈥淸Fireball]鈥?/p>
鈥?鈥?/p>
As soon as the referee give it a go, she released [Fireball] at聽Uzoh. He did evade it, but Niku didn鈥檛 waste any time and dashing to where聽Uzoh聽would land.
Niku approaches him from a low angle, making full use of her small stature she sends knife strike aiming at聽Uzoh聽ankle which just lost his balance.聽However聽she didn鈥檛 use the knife-edge, but it鈥檚 flat side, she aims to topple聽Uzoh.
It successfully connects and immediately she mounts聽Uzoh聽and press her knife to his neck.
鈥淚-I鈥?Give up鈥?/p>
鈥渙kay鈥?/p>
The match ended in an instant.
鈥淲INNER! Niku聽Kuroinu!鈥?/p>
After referee declaration, she stands up and waves at us. Then she turned around, her face is still expressionless, but her tail is wagging with joy.
鈥淭hat was quick.鈥?/p>
鈥淎s expected from our daughter鈥︹€︹€︹€ome on聽Kehma, say something鈥︹€?/p>
鈥渁h yeah, okay鈥?I鈥檓 proud of our聽daugther.鈥?/p>
Rokuko聽is in a good mood now, Niku left the stage and returned to the waiting room,聽Uzoh聽also exited the Arena after that.
鈥淛ust now鈥?she did not use any chant?鈥?/p>
鈥淐hanting is something that you can do quietly,聽Rokuko鈥檚聽Master you probably won鈥檛 hear it because we are so far away.鈥?/p>
Aidi聽comments remind me that Empire鈥檚 adventurers didn鈥檛 do that at all. No, I guess it鈥檚 the difference between a personal battle and party co-op battle.
鈥淭hat puppy chant so quietly so only her can hear it, she did that so she won鈥檛 underestimating her opponent鈥檚 ability, but I think she is overestimate it instead, what a waste of efforts.鈥?/p>
Though it鈥檚 okay since she only uses Fireball to defeat him,聽Aidi聽is putting her hand on her cheek as she said that.
Aside from being noisy, I don鈥檛 think聽Aidi聽commentary is necessary since it finished so quickly.
Niku has grown so much, huh? Let鈥檚 give her some hamburger later, or maybe a food stall meal would be better?
鈥淯nderstand聽Ichika? It鈥檚 a tactic.鈥?/p>
鈥淲ell I already know about it, since I used to spar with her a lot鈥?her footwork is confusing, and her power and speed are stronger and faster than what her appearance suggest, it doesn鈥檛 matter if you choose to take it head on or avoid it, you will still get rolled.鈥?/p>
鈥淗er muscles did not seem to be that strong鈥?perhaps that puppy using some interesting abilities.鈥?/p>
Ummm, that was Golem Power, but it鈥檚 our secret. I need to change the topic.
鈥淗ow聽Sebas聽doing?鈥?/p>
鈥淗e just winning, boringly. Well as my Master it would be a聽it聽be a problem. if he can鈥檛 win this qualifier with one arm only.鈥?/p>
鈥溾€?One arm only?鈥?/p>
鈥淵eah, I prohibited聽Sebas聽to use his other arm for this qualifier.鈥?/p>
He fights with his hand tied up, oh, by the way, tying your hand with a rope is prohibited in tournament rules, so it was 鈥榩laying-tied-up鈥?
鈥淎idi, you really put a lot of pressure on that butler.鈥?/p>
鈥淥h?聽Rokuko, you don鈥檛 at least trust your Master to do that much?鈥?/p>
鈥溾€ou are right,聽Kehma, will you tie yourself too?鈥?/p>
鈥淒on鈥檛 want to.鈥?/p>
Anyway, my match is already over, so I decline it.
TL notes :
hello, yeah I鈥檓 back鈥? my head still killing me tho鈥?/p>
and tbh I鈥檓 not supposed to do this.. yet鈥?but I do have too much time on the hospital and they didn鈥檛 confiscated my phone鈥?so鈥?.
So鈥?that runny nose the last time I talk you guys , it turns out to be bad one.
one good thing, it鈥檚 not Corona (phew) the bad news is, it鈥檚 yellow fever鈥?I thought they were kidding when you they say you can have nightmare bordering hallucination when your body heat got around 40 celcius, turns out they are friggin serious.
also they supposed to release me tomorrow, but expect the translation to be slowed down a little, maybe I will post it every 2 days, but I will still try to make it into double chapter.
I guess that鈥檚 it for now, so yeah don鈥檛 worry it鈥檚 not that bad.
