The Strongest Fairy

Chapter 60 Prizes, Negotiations and an Old Man

The Awarding ceremony ended up strange. The victory was declared to Aidle, but there were no problems with that, the problems were who to declare for the second and third place.

The heroes were tied-up and enslaved with slavery collars for many crimes, like kidnapping, intimidation, violating of rules of competition, and even declaring the intention to destroy the country. As a result, the heroes were greatly restricted in their actions and trying to activate their skills would be nothing more but foolishness. They were also made to take no other actions than those that were necessary or what was authorized beside being sent to the castle's jail. So, they have declared La Veil to be in the second place.

Next, Morial was declared as 3rd ranked. It was because other than him, everyone else quit, knowing what they would end up with if they fought the hero. Also because they want to consider Morial's current condition. However, it was impossible for Morial to appear at that time with his condition, so Suvia was assigned to receive it and would hand it to him later.

At first, Suvia rejected the offer, but when they said that he would definitely be pleased if he received it and with Aidle directly handing it to her, she reluctantly accepted it.

And that awarding ceremony was held inside the castle. The ones present during the awarding were Aidle, Arena, La Veil and Suvia, and those who witnessed it were senior nobles and royal knights that served as guards, along with Mondol who was seated at the throne.

「A lot of troublesome things have happened, but I was happy that we were able to end it peacefully. As for the rewards, I will be sending it to everyone in accordance to the level of battle performance they have displayed」

The king then stood up and grabbed a scroll handed by a knight standing beside him.

「First of all, as substitute of the magician Morial, miss Suvia, come forward」

「Ha, Hai!!」

Mondol was declaring the rewards while holding himself back from giggling due of Suvia's nervousness.

「The reward will be 300 gold coins and 10kg of revenant ore. I will be straightforward with you, from now on be sure to live strongly without getting lost」

「Ha, Hai!! Thank you very much!!」

「Um. Next in line is, the runner-up, Violent Storm of Roaring Flames La Veil」

「Umu!!」

La Veil came up front and in a majestic stance. Although she was just in runner-up position, she still showed a satisfied look.

「You will be awarded 500 gold coins and an ancient magic tool from the age of myths, a Ring-Type Item Box with limitless capacity. With the battle capabilities and strong will that you have displayed, such award would probably be not enough for a person who would even deserve to be called a goddess of war.」

「You can leave it to me!!」

「And finally, the winner, the leader of 『Fairy's Banquet』 , a Peach from the Town of Blooming Ice, Aidle, come forward」

「Hai!!」

Aidle came up front in her usual way. Now that the power of fairy magic have subsided completely, the nobles who were watching here where commenting things like 「Is that really the person who defeated that hero and was fighting in the finals...?」 and were staring at her with doubtful eyes. At the same time, they were fascinated by her cute gestures and lovely appearance.

「For the time being, I will be offering 1000 gold coins and a wish... No, let's make it three wishes as an exception this time. Your achievements were not only hailed within the Stadium, but you were also the one who has freed this country from the darkness lurking within it, you can tell me anything you desire and this country will provide as much as they can accommodate within it's acceptable range」
