'Well, I guess you ...... are the only ones left among the fox tribe.'
I tossed the large number of bowls in my hand towards Lagarde and the others in careless and blatant display.
They both look shocked, as if they can't believe my move.
'Damn you, ...... noble bourgeois .......'
'Lagarde ...... cannot talk to Master Rid that way either ......."
Noir calls out to admonish him for his hot temper, but it has the opposite effect and Lagarde loses his temper.
'Ugh, shut up, Noir likes guys like him ...... Damn it!'
"Lagarde⁉."
He shakes off her restraints and just shoves me with all his might.
There's no gamesmanship or anything like that.
Let's cool down his enthusiasm a little.
I dodge his big attack, get into his bosom and put my palm on his stomach.
'You're getting overheated, cool your head down a little ...... water spear ".
"......⁉ Ughhhhhh !"
The water spear usually has a pointed tip, but now the magic is reduced so it has no killing power.
The 'water spear' magic that was released on Lagarde, if I may put it that way, is about the same as a water cannon with tremendously high water pressure.
But it is enough to drop him into the water moat outside the field.
"No⁉ Lagarde.!!"
However, as Noir stepped forward to catch him as he was blown away, I quickly weakened the force of my magic.
"Aah!
"Ugh!"
The two of them managed to avoid falling off the field because Noir caught him as he was blown away by my magic.
The children of other tribes around them show no sign of entering to help them in particular.
Is it some kind of strategy or do they have their own reasons?
Well, it doesn't matter either way.
I dare to smile mockingly and approach the Laggards leisurely, deliberately clapping loudly.
'That's great teamwork, man. But I never thought there would be a 'knight' who could be saved by a 'princess'. I wish Lagarde_...... would show me something a little cooler.'
Lagarde is on his knees, protecting Noir and glaring at me with a glare.
'Gu...... shut up, you fucking magician .......'
I smile at Lagarde, who is swearing at me, and mutter close to her face.
'Hmm ...... my magic is ferocious. But it's time to end it, because the next children are on their way. But yeah. If you still have something to show me, I'd like to see it, and so ...... yeah, I'll give you three minutes."
He glares at me, but I guess he has no moves. He shakes his fist in frustration and mutters.
'No ...... if I fight with that guy now, I'll lose. Shit, if I were stronger, I'd ...... power ...... power, I'd want power ."
'Lagarde .......'
Noir is leaning in close to him as he squeezes out his words.
Hm, is it tactless to stand by them?
I take some distance from them.
Then, to show this, I hold out my right hand to them and deploy my 'water spear'.
They seem to be talking about something, but I can't hear them.
But I do feel some buzzing, so I might as well hope for the best.
Then, after a short pause, I ask them.
'Are you done with your strategy meeting? It's time, lets hear your answers.'
Then they both stand up in place with a start.
There is still heat in their eyes.
It seems that there is still something going on.
Noir muttered.
"Lagarde ...... trust me ......."
'Yeah, I'll always trust you Noir,...... absolutely ."
'...... what do you think you're doing?'
I looked dubious, unable to understand the intent of their words.
Just to be sure, I ask for their presence through the electric field and feel something like two emotions.
(What is this ...... yet, I don't know this feeling? No, it feels like I know. But either way, it doesn't feel bad. Rather ...... warm?)
At the same time as I muttered in my mind, Noir chanted softly to Lagarde.
'Lagarde,...... I give you a phosphorescent light,.......'
At that moment, flames that seemed to be 'phosphorus fire' overflowed from Noir's whole body and soared into the sky.
I couldn't help but express my surprise at this unexpected event.
The entire audience also groaned.
The phosphorus fire in the sky flew towards Lagarde, who accepted the phosphorus fire without fear.
Lagarde accepted all the phosphorus fire that flew up from Noir, and wore it on his body.
But when the magic is over, Noir collapses from her knees without strength.
Lagarde gently supported and slowly laid her down, then turned back to me and gave me a powerful look.
'This time I can't lose ...... for Noir's sake, for the fox people's sake ...... I can't lose this time, "
'Haha, good. Then let's ...... continue."
I'm sorry to the two of them, but I can't contain my inner excitement.
For now, let's call the magic used by Noir the 'phosphorescent light' from her mutterings.
Releasing one's own magical power as magic.
The magic shot from him hits my water spear and cancels each other out.
No, the number of magic shots he fires is more than my spell.
In other words, they are flying towards me.
I recognised the magic that was coming towards me and unconsciously muttered.
......⁉ Did he shoot all the magic he fired at me at the same time, all by himself?
At that moment, magic landed around me and I was surrounded by explosions and flames.
'I've done , I've done it, I've won."
Lagarde's voice in the air roared through the hall, and the area seemed to quieten down.
However, the moment he landed on the ground, water gushed out of the rising smoke and extinguished the flames that were burning around him.
When the smoke and flames settled, Lagarde's face finally came into view and I smiled at her.
'Haha, I can't believe Lagarde is suddenly able to manage that much magic. ...... 'Phosphorescent Lights' is wonderful. I'd love to hear all about this from you guys after the match."
'Damn, damn ...... you're unharmed again. Then, I'm going to catch the bowl directly and finish up with that "
He looked at me and made a shocked face, but he boldly ran at me.
He probably realised that he couldn't win with magic, and was going to win the bowl in close combat.
I greeted him with a big smile on my face.
'Hmm, it's never ceased to be ...... interesting to see how much the body is strengthened by the 'phosphorescent light'.
'Kuku...... say whatever you want!'
He tackles me in melee combat while raising his voice.
And I was astonished as I parried his attacks.
The reason is that he had not been able to use his 'body enhancement' until just now.
Therefore, there was no chance of winning against me.
But what now? He's catching up with me, who's using body reinforcement.
The crowd seems to be getting excited by our tremendous moves, and I can feel the heat coming from the crowd.
However, in contrast to my smile, Lagarde's expression is getting more and more drawn in.
Soon, our fists clash and the impact creates a distance between us.
'Hmmm, ...... this is fun. But is it time for you to call it a day?"
'......Why⁉ Why can't I hit you,...... Damn it!'
Lagarde comes at me with an angry, desperate look on his face.
Perhaps he has no more time left.
The 'phosphorescent light' entrusted to him by Noir is visibly less intense than at first.
And another reason for his impatience ...... is that his attacks have never reached me.
But he unfortunately doesn't realise the main problem with that.
It's been fun, but it's time to move on.
I grinned.
'Why can't I hit , you ask? 'You rely too much on Noir's power. ...... It's not your power. It's not that easy to master magic ".
What ......⁉?"
As soon as I tell him out loud why he wants it, I slip my left hand into his bosom and put my magic power into it.
'Lagarde, it's over,......, I enjoyed it a lot. See you later."
"Guaaahhhh !"
Lagarde was hit in the abdomen with a zero-distance water spear, which blew her away vigorously.
He then fell into the water moat outside the venue, causing a violent splash and a white plume of smoke, probably due to the phosphorus fire coming into contact with the water.
At that moment, a cheer rang out from the audience.
'Well, ......"
I walked in a different direction from the moat he fell into and took the bowl of a girl lying down in my hands.
Then the girl opened her eyes.
'Oh, Noir, I'm sorry. Did I waken you?'
'No, ...... we lost it, didn't we? Um, where's Lagarde?'
Noir looks around for Lagarde, who seems more worried about him than herself.
'Is it him? 'Yes, I'll take you to him.'
'Yes, ......⁉ Kyaaaah , oh, that Master Rid, I'm embarrassed ...... to be in this position..."
"Yeah? But Noir seems to be stuck, and your knight is not around at the moment."
I'm holding her in a so-called 'princess carry' so that she can see Lagarde, who can't move, and give her to the judges.
I hear a lot of screaming from the audience, what's going on?
◊
'Damn, damn ...... that evil magician .......'
'That's rude. Who's the evil wizard?"
'Oh my God, he's !'
When I moved to where Lagarde had fallen, he was just about to leave the water moat, soaking wet.
But when I call out to him, he is startled and falls into the water moat again.
I don't know what he's doing.
I put Noir, who was in my arms , down on the spot.
Then she rushed to the water moat with a worried look on her face.
"Lagarde, are you okay⁉"
"Noir⁉ Sorry...... I lost."
'No, it's more important that Lagarde is safe."
Lagarde, with the help of Noir, gets out of the water moat.
And then, something is going on in a nice atmosphere, but I cough to get their attention.
'Well, you guys lost, so get out of the place as soon as possible ...... and Lagarde.'
'Hey, what the hell ......?'
I approach Lagarde, who has a dubious look on his face, and gently whisper in her ear.
'Look, I think you've got it all wrong, so I'll tell you something. Noir, you know, I don't think she likes me. You're a knight, you know. Make sure you protect her, okay?"
'What are you talking about, !?
He answered with a red face and Noir looked at him with a puzzled expression on her face.
When I smiled at them, I felt a sharp presence and turned around as soon as I felt it.
I turned around and saw a girl with long, white, distinctive ears, snapping the fingers of both hands in front of her chest and looking at me with a happy expression.
"Master Rid, fight with me now."
"Ovelia ......? I'd say you're a big favourite right off the bat."
The bowl battle has only just begun.
What kind of fight will Ovelia show me? I grinnead in fearless way .
By giving it to the target, did she strengthen him in some way?
Lagarde is wearing a 'phosphorescent light', and a blue flame is emanating from her entire body and shimmering.
And his presence is completely different from before, full of confidence, and he has good eyes.
I grinned at him.
'Come on, come on. Or is that 'phosphor' you wear just for decoration?"
'...... I'll make you regret those words.'
At the same time as Lagarde's answer, I fired a 'water spear' at him.
But unlike before, he is quick enough to avoid my magic.
The children of the Beastmen tribe were in chaos as he ran through the arena and I released my magic on him.
The hall was filled with the sound of the impact of a water spear landing on something and the splashing of water.
'Hmmm, nice ‼, a totally different move from earlier. Well, how about this ...... water spear-2 style 16 spears ?'
The power of the Type 2 spear is less powerful than the normal water spear.
But it is a guiding force that flies at the target I see.
The sixteen water spears generated about me fly towards Lagarde, who is moving around.
'Now, Lagarde ...... what are you going to do⁉?'
While releasing magic at Lagarde, I can't stop being excited to see what kind of moves he will make.
He leaps much higher than before.
Then, my water spear flies towards him, and I hold out my hands when they are in line.
'Now I can do it,...... Flame Sphere 32 Lights,...... Take it "'
As his voice echoed through the hall, a large amount of phosphorescent fire floated in front of him.
It appeared to be a shimmering mass of blue-white flame
'Well, I guess you ...... are the only ones left among the fox tribe.'
I tossed the large number of bowls in my hand towards Lagarde and the others in careless and blatant display.
They both look shocked, as if they can't believe my move.
'Damn you, ...... noble bourgeois .......'
'Lagarde ...... cannot talk to Master Rid that way either ......."
Noir calls out to admonish him for his hot temper, but it has the opposite effect and Lagarde loses his temper.

There's no gamesmanship or anything like that.
