I can’t be the only one that had to double-check when he saw the profiles in the replay videos LOL.
That’s a scam, a scam I tell you.
18：Nameless Heavy Warrior ID：8wPUixb
Fuh, I bet on Hero-chan and True Self, who are dead last.
Please make it happen like last event…please!
19：Nameless Mage ID：bTSiSWA
Last event…was it where Hero-chan made it into the damage rankings?
20：Nameless Heavy Warrior ID：8wPUixb
@19 That’s right.
On the last day, True Self used Sacrifice and Hero-chan stole 1st place from Albert.
21：Nameless Knight ID：23J84Pg
But, I wonder how it’ll go? 1st place and 2nd place were overwhelming in the group tournament.
It’s hard when you have to fight two vanguards, they look quite strong.
That’s why the current odds are like that.
22：Nameless Mage ID：SEYc8Y7
Even though having a magic job behind would be an orthodox tactic in RPGs.
Why did it end up like this?
23：Nameless Shinto Priest ID：8CuuAL6
Because having an Archer behind is the standard in TB…
24：Nameless Mage ID：HkWNs2Y
The casting times get in the way after all.
Putting more of a burden on your vanguards than Archers is quite the minus.
Hah…
25：Nameless Shinto Priest ID：fmRF9rW
@22-24 At least, let’s keep cheering for the magic classes that have won until now.
There’s only 2 left after all…
Since it’s like this, I’ll go bet on Hero-chan too, though it’ll only be a small amount.
Ah, this is my fault.
Thanks to me lacking any type of high powered magic, it’s being seen as a fatal weakness for duels.
「As expected, Archers with a vanguard are the preferred duo.
「Herscha’s eyes looked as if they were filled with rage…when I first saw her name, I was quite surprised.」 (Wataru)
「Well, leaving aside the two pairs at the top, which dominated their groups.
「The other 4 pairs aside from Herscha-chan’s and Wacchi’s all have an Archer in them.」(Shuuhei)
「Isn’t that just job discrimination!? So shallow minded!」 (Miyu)
「Well there’s that too, but we also had a close match in our group final after all」(Wataru)
「Fufun!」(Shuuhei)
Shuuhei proudly stuck out his chest.
Usually, I would tell him not to get carried away but since he looked quite down yesterday, I’ll let it pass this time.
And then, as if she was thinking about something, Miyu put her hand over her mouth and breathed in.
「…I decided. I’m also going to bet on ourselves!」 (Miyu)
「Ooh, Miyucchi you sure are fired up!! I was waiting for those words!!」 (Shuuhei)
She stood up from her chair along with those words and as if to put fighting spirit into those words, she hit her chest.
Because of the inertia, those twin hills of hers were shaking.
「I’m fine with betting, but let the amount be modera-」 (Wataru)
「…Everything.」(Miyu)
「Eh?」(Wataru)
「Everything we own!! Shouldn’t that be obvious!!?」(Miyu)
「Whoa!! As expected of Miyucchi, you know what you are talking about!!」(Shuuhei)
These guys, they are not thinking at all about what would happen if they fail…
Once I drank the tea while those two were getting excited, for some reason, it suddenly got quiet and they stared at me with eyes full of expectation.
Eh, are they telling me I have to go and bet too?
「W-Well then, I’ll bet only a small amount.」(Wataru)
「「Hah…」」(Both of them)
What’s with that expression that looks as if they are saying「I’m disappointed in you」, what’s wrong with going for a safe option.
To begin with, even if it’s a game, I don’t like things like gambling.
In real life, I make a lot of effort to economise as much as I can.
It’s going to be 0 if we miss you know? 0. We won’t get anything back.
In that case, it would be much better if we indulged ourselves a bit and went to eat something tast-
「Wataru, I’ve known you for a long time…I know what you are thinking about more or less. However, this is a game!! A game!! What’s fun about thinking about risks as if it was real life!? You have to bet too!! You have to!!」(Miyu)
「!!!」(Wataru)
Hearing Miyu’s words, I felt shock as if I had just been hit in my head.
I-It’s true that…even if the money inside the game were to be gone, that wouldn’t matter at all.
Even if we had to work hard to earn it all back, as long as it’s a game, thinking about ways to earn the money might lead to ways to have fun.
No matter where you look at it from, I’m being dragged into it, I am but…if it’s at times like this, I guess I wouldn’t mind being dragged into it…
「…I got it. I’ll bet everything too.」(Wataru)
「「Alriiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!!」」(Both of them)
「You guys are so noisy. I’ll do my best, but don’t blame me later.」(Wataru)
If we end up losing, it’s decided that it’ll be money earning hell after the event ends.
Then, I checked the clock and noticed that it was close to 3pm.
I stood up since it was about time for a snack and Shuuhei said from behind me.
「By the way, Wacchi. Who would you bet on if it was someone other than yourself?」(Shuuhei)
「Ah? Well…」(Wataru)
If we thought about it normally, it would probably the Aniki, Albert.
Once I said that, both made faces that were saying “I thought so”…and laughed.
