The Strongest Fairy

Chapter 41 Battle Royale ①

『Now then, the previous group has shown us a great fight, participant Lagol and participant Blackliner's fierce magic battle attracted a lot of attention from our audiences!! What kind of battle will the third group show us!! The participants that are gaining attention in this group would be Participant Abil who survived until the final selection last year!! How far is he going to reach this year!!! And not to forget, one of the knights of this country, Twiler, will also be participating!! How far will that one reach and how much power will we get to see!! Now then, third group, Battle Start!!!』

「Now then, how should I proceed with this...」

There were around 100 participants jumbled together on the stage. Everyone already started fighting those that are nearby them, but well I wonder who would entertain me~. Just when I started walking near the corner of the stage someone called out,

「Oi, what have you been spacing out here for?」

「Mu?」

A spearman who probably caught sight of me headed towards me. I readied my halberd as he approached. The length of his spear was around 2 meters. It's probably for gaining advantage by fighting opponents from a long distance, but it doesn't feel like he's good at it.

「Take thiiiss!!!」

While coming this way, he tried to gain power by rushing before thrusting at me from afar. However, since the handle is so far, I grabbed hold of the spear and then twisted,

「Well, it ended up becoming like this after all」

「O, Oooo~~!!??」

I grabbed it by the base of the spear blade and then lift it up along with the man holding it, then throw him out of the ring. After all, if you fall out of the stage you will be disqualified. There's no problem if I do it like this. Now then, who's next?

「Prepare yourself!!」

「Oooouuoo!!」

Next is two people huh, one carries a big sword and the other one is a twin sword user. Ah, this is also a terrible way to fight.

「To the big sword user. Your attacks are too slow. It's like telling others to hit you while you approach」

「what!?」

I caught sword with the edge of my halberd and knock it out of his hands. On the other hand, the twin sword user jumped towards me and tries to aim at my blind spot from above.

「Although a twin sword style can force your opponent into your rhythm, it will be useless if you end up full of openings」

「Guhe, guuh」

Smacking him with the body of my halberd, I threw him out of the stage along with the other one from before. That makes it three people. Now then, I wonder who will approach me next~?

『Woo~ops, in just a few minutes the number of participants was already reduced to half!! Participant Abil was splendidly showing off his power!! I wonder just how much training you would need to reach those levels!?』

Hou, is that the man they mentioned a while ago. Looking over as to know what kind of person he was, what's with that? All the remaining participants surrounded him. But all those who approached him were getting knocked out. If they concentrate too much on him, won't they fall victim to people aiming for them behind their back.

「What's this. Why won't anybody come here? What's wrong? 」

「「「...」」」

Nobody bit on Abil's provocation. Now then, I don't really want to get stuck on this situation. Who should I begin with,
