Because the quarterfinals will be held at noon, we are currently killing time by idling at the Inn. Aguera-san also seems to be free today and was drinking tea gracefully with us.
But you know, it would have been much better if you didn't place your feet on the table... still, the beauty of that leg-line was a wonderful sight.
「I didn't expect that you would be that strong you know. I thought that you reaching the first round would already be good enough.」
「Did Aguera-san bet on anyone?」
「Nope, I'm not good at betting you see. That guy too, my old boyfriend, he poured all his assets into betting and lost. There was also a time when he ran away with my money. But he was caught and turned into a slave. Right now he is probably working hard in a mine somewhere」
You said that with a nostalgic face, but the content was quite heavy. I was astonished to the point that I couldn't even remember the taste of the tea I'm drinking. La Veil also felt awkward about it.
「Well, I believe he's thinking of working to get back here when he returns」
「Eh, you're planning to redo the relationship?」
「I don't, I have already failed once and was looked at with pitiful eyes. I wonder if I can find a good husband out there. You know someone that might welcome me warmly?」
Ah, that's the face of someone who wants to look for someone who would do errands for her. Nee-san sure has power behind her. No, more like a little too much power is what I would say. To the person who will be her husband, please live strongly.
「So are you guys also betting?」
「Ah, yeah, I got a bet from Arena」
「Ne~♪ I bet a loooot~」
「Hou, how much?」
「Gold Coins, a lot, 5「Ooops」umugumu」
That was dangerous, really dangerous. I won't let Arena say anything more than that. If she says 5000 pieces, Aguera-san's heart might just stop.
「You bet 5 Gold Coins right?」
「Hou, betting 5 Gold Coins you say!! Well, I guess the hero will win it anyway. Even if you join in there, the result might already be fixed. You should take advantage of it Jou-chan」
Ahhh, so you've also given up to that situation. If you say that to Arena right now, she will just get more fired up.
◇――――――――――――――――
『Now, once again, we will resume the event!! Today is the day of the quarterfinals, it will be the battle of the remaining, and the strongest 8!! Now, for the first match, it will a battle between the Blazing Flame Lady La Veil and Abil the crafty warrior!!!』
「Been a while since we've met, it was from the qualifiers I think」
「Ooh, same here, but I didn't expect you to be quite the beautiful Nee-san 」
『There will be no time limit in the qualifiers!! Furthermore, the whole stage and the whole area around will be considered as battle stage, so there will be no losing by throwing them out!! Players, please go crazy to your utmost and show off your power to everyone!!』
While listening to what the announcer said, a grin formed on La Veil's face. It seems that she interpreted the rule of no off-limits on the stage as something like it would be fine if the stage is destroyed. That desire started to grow inside her head.
「Hey, hey nee-san, what's with that extremely wicked smile... What are you planning to do, oh beautiful Nee-san?」
Abil prepares his sword while slightly trembling. Although he was wary about it, he understood that it would be an extremely difficult battle because he also witnessed La Veils fight in the second round yesterday.
