Chapter 81 - Betting and expectations towards both of them. (1/2)
Before getting into the chapter I should point out that I made a silly mistake when translating the name of a character from the rankings during the 1st event.
Said character appears mentioned here again so I corrected it here and I believe I corrected it in the early chapters too but I’m honestly not sure if there were more instances of him appearing but let’s hope I did.
Anyway, enjoy the chapter, releases might slow down a bit but I’ll keep working on them.
「Oh right, participants like us can also bet right?」 (Wataru)
「That seems to be the case. How about you bet on yourselves?」 (Shuuhei)
「Before that, I’d like to know what the bet odds are like.」 (Wataru)
「Ooh, I want to know too! How popular are we!?」 (Miyu)
When he heard us say that, Shuuhei turned his eyes away awkwardly.
Hey, don’t tell me…
「Y-You won’t hear anything from my mouth…you can see the odds in the main page. Here.」 (Shuuhei)
Saying that, Shuuhei handed us his tablet, which was showing the official site.
I’m getting a bad feeling about this, but for the time being, let’s take a look.
「Ah…looking from the top, our names don’t appear at all…ah, there it is. This one.」 (Wataru)
「8th place…49x…wait a moment!! We are dead last aren’t weeeeeeee!!?」 (Miyu)
「Y-Yup」 (Shuuhei)
What’s with this cruel rank.
The number shown to us was just cruel, there were hardly any players that thought we would win the whole thing.
Even though we hadn’t fought yet, I had this odd feeling of having lost already.
After pouring some for Miyu and Shuuhei, I took the teacup and took a sip of the tea, it was a bit more bitter than usual.
「While it’s a bit weird for me to ask this since this concerns me, Shuuhei. Is it really going to be fine? To bet that huge amount of money into this.
「You are completely aiming for a lucky break here.」 (Wataru)
「I regret it a bit…b-but, Wacchi, you’ll do something about it right? It’s going to be fine!! It’s going to be huge if I get it right!」 (Shuuhei)
「Even if you say that to me…」 (Wataru)
「However, I can’t accept this! Shuuhei, why did things end up like this!? Explain things to me!」 (Miyu)
「This would also be faster if you looked at the BS most likely…
「There’s a thread that is predicting who will win, wait a moment…ah, here. I think you’ll get an idea after seeing this.」 (Shuuhei)

Thanks for making the thread!

Good work.
However, there’s hardly any profit for betting on 1st place…
6：Nameless Shinto Priest ID：BAxfMw5
Besides, it does look like it’s going to end up being even lower than that.
It’ll probably end at 1.2x by the end.

The finals of Group A was the highlight after all.
He turned the match around even when he ended 2 v 1 after all.

That old man Albert is all sorts of weird.
And Philia-chan is cute.
9：Nameless Light Warrior ID：TphkGPw
What relationship does she have with that mass of muscles?
She’s a little girl, or rather, she looks like an elementary schooler…his daughter?
10：Nameless Archer ID：SnzsbLX
No way, they don’t look alike at all.
11：Nameless Shinto Priest ID：Gn4RuKR
If his wife was pretty there’s a chance.
Other than that, their eyes look similar.
There’s…a chance, I think.
12：Nameless Mage ID：KwNgwXF
I don’t know the truth but…a little girl brandishing a big axe has its appeal.
Since I thought it was going to be full of guys, I’m quite happy about how surprisingly there’s a few female players left.
13：Nameless Heavy Warrior ID：urQQUmy
Let’s see…Philia-chan, Rose-chan, Iris-chan.
That ojou-sama and Hero-chan, and Walter-chan huh? That makes it 6!
14：Nameless Archer ID：SnzsbLX
Eh? Did he just mix someone into that group?
15：Nameless Knight ID：PWhc8rf
Just your imagination.
I didn’t see anything.
