I have to say that the recruitment tournament held as a royal family is quite grand. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

An arena large enough to accommodate hundreds of beasts, and a spectator that can seat tens of thousands of people, this recruitment tournament is a full display of the royal family's dignity and face, so that those scouts who come from abroad to find out something can feel the strength of Leliaga's current financial and powerful forces.

"This time, we will watch your competition throughout the whole process, and hope that all participants will uphold the principle of fairness and justice, and do not do anything that violates the rules. ”

In the special seat, sitting is the current king's iron face.

Wearing a metal mask, she looked imposing, and with her voice-changing voice, she was perfect enough to make her courtiers fearful of her.

But......

"Ovilia...... You're fighting hard to continue being the king, and you'll suffocate to death when it's hot, but now it's getting cooler, so the metal armor that wraps your whole body must be cold......"

Knowing the true face of the iron mask, Lin didn't think so, and when she looked at the girl who had maintained her majesty there, her heart ached.

(Ahhh...... Really...... Originally, I wanted to scold her for what happened last time, but now that she is so pitiful, let's give her a light punishment...... ）

"I announce, this Knights Recruitment Tournament begins!"

An uncle, probably in his fifties, stood at the front and yelled at the hundreds of contestants below.

is old and not old, probably just the kind of person he is talking about. Obviously his hair was half-white, but he still couldn't see a trace of old age, and that angry roar sounded more shocking than that of a young man in his twenties and thirties.

Even Lynn, an outsider, was now shaken by this astonishing atmosphere, and the blood in her body began to boil.

But...... It's still very nervous to be watched by so many people...... Rin, who thought there were only a few dozen people and wanted to come to the competition, really regretted it to the extreme......

"No...... Why...... There is no ......"

Amid the cheers of tens of thousands of people, the only contestant who looked strange was Ulris, whom Lynn knew.

He wandered around with a look of confusion and panic on his face, as if looking for something.

"If you're looking for Kreel, she's over there. ”

Probably guessing what the other side was looking for, Lynn called him and pointed her finger in a certain direction.

"What?"

Yuris looked in the direction she was pointing, and what she saw was a red-haired girl smiling and waving at the place.

That calmness, that smile, there is no doubt that Claire is right!

"Why...... Why don't you come?!"

The roar, which was almost desperate, surprised the contestants around him, and they began to point fingers at the contestant. Fortunately, because the voice of the scene was loud enough, the audience's voice covered his voice and did not let the audience hear it.

Of course, it was impossible for them to understand Yuris's mood.

Most of the nobles born in famous families have an inexplicable sense of superiority. The elite education that started from a young age has shaped them into excellent scholars and warriors one by one, so they originally had innate advantages in terms of specialties.

Losing once, especially to a girl, is the most intolerable thing for people like Yuris.

Not to mention......

"Ahaha......"

Looking at Lynn and Yuris, Claire smiled happily.

The one who defeated him did not even have a chance to avenge him.

"If you're wondering why Claire didn't attend...... It seems that she is not very interested in the recruitment of the Knights now, and she only came to test her level last year. ”

Lynn glanced at Claire in the audience.

"What is this? Just give up for this reason? before...... I've already told her that we'll have a final win in today's recruiting competition. ”

For such a reason, Yuris was obviously unacceptable, and he lowered his head and gritted his teeth, completely unable to accept the status quo.

"Also...... She may be trying to hide it, but she ......"

Lynn lowered her voice as she spoke, creeping into Yuris's ear.

"She's ...... There are a lot of wounds...... It's as if it was typed out by someone else. She didn't want to show me for the sake of face, but ...... I can still perceive the discomfort that I have experienced many times during training......"

"What do you mean...... Someone was abusing her in normal times, so she didn't have enough energy to participate in this recruitment competition?"

Yuris asked.

"Well, there is such a possibility......"

Lin nodded slightly.

"Bastard...... If I ever let me know who it is, I'm going to have to dismantle him......"

The eyes that looked at Claire were full of unwillingness, but the clenched fist finally let go.

A little bit...... It seems to be only a little bit......

But there was indeed a flash of worry in his eyes.

"Looks like ...... You're not cold-blooded and ruthless, I'm going to change my opinion of you a little bit in the future. ”

Lin looked at Yuris's look and nodded in satisfaction, as if she was a teacher who had agreed with her students.

"Hmph, that's the only way you can say that there, and if we meet later, I won't show mercy to you because you're a 'girl'. Enlighten me, pervert. ”

Compared to Kreel, Ulris is much more cold to Lynn.

"What?!What do you mean by perverted?!!!"

Lin was naturally upset when Yuris said this, and she yelled directly at Yuris in front of so many contestants.

"What do you mean? You know best that you really have the face to be my wife, vulgar. ”

"What! I don't want to go, you have to let me pass, you stinky little devil, you think I want to go with you?!

"Who are you scolding for being a stinky little ghost......"

"Who else is scolding you?!"

"Bastard...... You little girl actually said I was a ghost......"

"What's wrong with saying you're a little ghost?!"

"You...... You're waiting......"

"Wait, wait, you have the ability to beat me down later!"

“......”

“......”

"That's good. ”

Claire, who was sitting in the audience, looked at the two of them, and a smile appeared on her lips.

"It would be better if the relationship between the two of us became better, Lin, please ask you to replace me...... Let's fight him......"

The wind blew the girl's red hair and the corners of her clothes.

At the lower part of the neck, a crimson scar that is difficult to notice is slightly revealed......
