Chapter 592: Cant We Just End This Without Me Singing? (1/2)

An unexpected Karaoke Battle against the winning team. As I was dumbfounded and unable to keep up with the situation, I noticed that preparation was well underway.

Alice’s band has increased in number and is now in a more luxurious version…… It’s like they’re an orchestra, which has also gathered an awful lot of attention to me…… Do I really have to sing here? I guess I can’t huh.

To be honest, I liked music and listened to it a lot, and my parents sometimes brought me to karaoke when I was in elementary. I don’t think I’m bad at singing but…… I don’t think my singing skill is enough to win against the duo of Alice and Fate-san.

“Well then, before we start the Special Match…… Let’s introduce our judges!”

Ahh, they finished preparing before I knew it. This is bad, I can’t think of any way to turn this match down. I guess I’ll just have to go through this huh.

However, even so…… Judges? Indeed, since I’m entering the competition, another person should be judging, but since they said it in plural form, I guess that means there are multiple judges huh?

“There will be a total of nine judges, three representatives from each realm. If you think Kaito-san’s song is better, raise the red flag! If you think the song sung by me and Fate-san’s team is better, raise the blue flag!”

Hearing Alice’s words, I moved my gaze…… and noticed that a really long table had been prepared before I knew it, where nine people who should be the judges were seated.

From the Human Realm, of course, the rulers of three realms, from the God Realm, Shiro-san, Chronois-san and Life-san, and from the Demon Realm, Kuro, Isis-san and Lillywood-san seemed to be representing.

“Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, please judge fairl———– wait, oiii! Isis-san!? Why are you raising the red flag for!? Let alone the judging time, we still haven’t even started yet!”

[……Kaito…… wins.]

“No, no, I already expected that there would be a certain amount of favoritism for Kaito-san, but you can’t do it so openly, okay!? Come on now, please put the flag down……”

[……This…… is unneeded.]

“Oiiiii! Why the heck are you nonchalantly throwing away our team’s flag!?”

[……I will…… never raise…… that flag…… That’s why…… I don’t need it.]

“……You aren’t even feeling shame at all…… Geez, fine.”

An unexpected handicap of one vote even before the battle starts. I guess it’s just like Isis-san to do something like that. Also, when our eyes met, she smiled and gave me a small wave, which is really cute.

However, Alice team’s agony didn’t end there.

When the exchange between Isis-san and Alice had come to an end, Shiro-san declared in an intonationless voice.

[……God of Space and Time, God of Life.]

[ [ Y- Yes! ] ]

[I know you already know what I’m about to say but…… I’m not so forgiving as to tolerate you “disappointing me twice in a row”, you know?]

[ [ Hahh! As per Shallow Vernal-sama’s will!!! ] ]

After straightening their backs at Shiro-san’s words, Chronois-san and Life-san raised the red flag high in the air.

“Oi, you people over there! What the heck are you doing! I just told you to be fair, didn’t I!!!?”

[ [ ……………. ] ]

“……They won’t budge a bit, these freaking Supreme Gods.”

“Shall-tan! Just let them! It’s impossible to tell them otherwise, okay!? Let’s just overlook them!!!”

Even in the face of Alice’s sharp criticism, Chronois-san didn’t move an inch and continued to raise their flags. They look desperate. The both of them looked so desperate that Fate-san couldn’t help but back them up.

“No, no, Fate-san…… This is strange, okay!? How come the opponent scored “4 out of 9 points” before the match even starts!? That’s a huge handicap!”

“K- Kai-chan is an amateur! A handicap like this should be fine, right!!!?”
