Chapter 172: The Deity Tree Region and the Start of the Game (2/2)

The bell echoed from somewhere with a ‘sharinn’ sound The hustle and bustle in the vicinity disappeared, and a resonant voice went up

「It’s time Everyone besides the participants will leave this place Everything else will be left to the guidance of the spirits」

Aa white poncho-like (貫頭衣) traditional costunifiedly announces so At the same time, the people from the other tribes turned towards the audience seats that had becoes built in between the trees or just on top of the branches of the surrounding trees in groups

Shall we go as well?

「Then everyone, do your best and ozaru」

「It’s all right」

「Please leave it to us!」

「I will do o!」

Yae, Elsie, Hilda, and Rue walk toward the stu Pam

We also moved to the audience seats established on top of the tree After cli the stairs attached to the side of the tree which is soood view

「I a excited」

Suu bends on the handrail and gazes at the coe tree is co squad is about 50 people in total, but I honestly find it difficult to be here since I ah the people of the Rauri tribe see me as a woman, they also know that I am really a man Uumu, if I think about it carefully, wouldn’t it probably be better if I became transparent with [Invisible]?

But in that case, it will be difficult to intervene if ever an eency happens It’s better to be called part of the [Rauri tribe] even if it’s troublesome

「…Ah, please look that, Touya-san」

「Oh?」

In the location Lindsey points at, rays of sunlight pass through the trees like a spotlight and focus to each of the tribe’s representatives Before long, it slowly begins to es

When I look above to the branches in surprise, both the branches and leaves defor in between them Are you serious……? Does this so-called Great Deity Tree have a will of its own? Will those lights decide ill fight who?

Before I could even think of that, the battles started right away So, there see cereht in a one-on-one format?」

「It is said that should the first three people win, the reht」

In other words, does that reat, if the other four people are no good, the tribe will lose the moment the three of those are defeated? If it was a knockout tournale person to defeat five people by himself

It’s a loss whether it is due to combat disability or by surrender Well, it will also be a loss if you fall froe There is no basically foul play, and should a person who considerably defiles the pride of the tribe living in the Great Forest Sea will be disqualified

While I’e man brandishes an ax and cuts open the head of his eneh It looked like that, the head was never crushed in reality His opponent just slowly fell on the spot

I wonder if this is that divine protection of spirits It becoe is prevented because there are countless wounds and bruises on the body of the defeated opponent Is it invoked when someone is struck by a fatal blow like it has been said? His opponent seems to have fainted completely

「Ah, It looks like the match for the Rauri tribe will start soon」

Yumina points at a location that’s hard to see froe in the air with [Mirage] and [Long Sense]

Voices of admiration leak out from the other people froe, the e the projection to a screen with a size big enough to be able to watch the ht

Her opponent is a tall ht difference of about 40 centi hiin!」

As the white clothed referee swings down his hand, Rue ht line In response to that, therepelled by Rue’s sword and directed the other way

Rue, who is approaching her opponent as if she’s sliding, waved her left hand and landed it on the man’s flank

Doo~! A dull sound is heard and a spearman crumbles on the spot Not even a minute has passed

Uooooooooooooo! Cheers of joy froed behind me

It is not like Rue trained with Yae or me just for show From her point of view, that level of h naturally

In the first place, dual sword users are quick-witted They confuse their opponent with their les They don’t have the heavyswords, but they have swords

That said, it’s not like they can’t kill their opponent with a single blow It’s possible if they aim for the vital spots Naturally, accuracy is nevertheless also required in addition to thereatly waves her hand

In this way, the curtain of our battle came down
