We finish lunch, log into the game, and everyone talks about the event. First, Ruin asks me.

'Tact-kun will not be attending the event, right?'

There's no point in joining in, you know.

”Eh.

As disappointing as Lily and the others say, it doesn't look good for dueling in the first place. Give it up.

''This event is a bit of a hidden agenda from the management, isn't it?

'Ah. In addition to combating newbie hunting, you're also inducing assassinations.

Assassination?

There's an ominous word in the conversation between Yoichi and Full Moon. Then Arleigh explains.

'Assassination is the act of deliberately putting yourself in a low position in a ranking event and then passing the top of the table with a high point all at once just before the end.'

Heh. It's terrible to let your guard down and kick them off at once. But if it's a battle method, I can't say it's a mistake. Once again, the two of them explain it to me.

''This time, a player with a high rank can't refuse a duel from a low player, you know. Inevitably, we're inducing an assassination.''

''There's a way to dare not log in... but the risk of being assassinated is still high. As a result, we'll just have to keep winning against players of the same rank and high rank.

It's severe, but I guess that's the way it should be. Then Lisa asks me.

'Do you know what profession or combination of professions would be advantageous for solo and tag team, brother?'

'I don't have any data, I don't know. In my personal opinion, I don't think there's any profession that's better for soloing or tagging.

Even I can do melee combat. There would be no advantage or disadvantage at the earliest.

Still, isn't there a profession you care about?

Mel asks me, and I answer honestly.

'Well. I think the ninja is going to be a great line of defense.

The ninja has no muscle strength or defense, but he has the best speed in all classes, long-range attacks with ninjutsu, and tangled techniques.

It will be tricky to turn them into an enemy. I'm a ravenous demon tengu and I know how nasty they can be.

''I see... how about a tag team combination?''

That's going to be a game of chemistry.

If it is a ninja-only speed party, it is strong against one-hit kill parties such as wizards and archers, but it will not be good against balance types such as knights and self-healing and self-enhancing types such as fighters.

Balance types will be vulnerable to power types like heavy warriors, and power types will be vulnerable to one-hit killers.

The key to clearing these advantages and disadvantages would be what strategy to use.

Then Luke asks me.

'What will happen to the summoner?'

Well, the summons will be the first to go after you without dealing with them.

I know, but... what should I do?

Then Tyrol drops a bomb.

'Who would you team up with, Mr. Tact?'

Lily and her friends are super responsive. But if they're going to team up, sometimes my answer is set in stone.

'It'll be Ix,'

”What?

Quicksilver. Master.

To everyone's surprise, Chiffon says, 'I thought you'd be paired with Lily or Aeon.

''I thought you'd be paired up with Lily-chan or Ion.

Well, that's what you would normally think.

''I can fight with Lily and the others, but with this rule, wave systems and dragonization are at a disadvantage. But with Ix, you can shoot special moves as many times as you want, and the equipment is well balanced.

The players will be convinced. I don't think Lily and the others will be convinced.

I didn't dare to mention it, but Ix has the link skill to read my thoughts and copy my swordsmanship.

With that in mind, Ix was the best choice. Well, I can't join in anyway.

Then Mel muttered.

'We'll have to actually duel and try things out.

It's true that we won't know a lot of things until we try them out.

'Why don't we build a facility for dueling anyway?　The space is in the basement.

'What?　Are you sure?!

Do you think it's a good idea?　There will be more of the same events in the future, and I think it's a good time to make them while they last.

So it was decided to build a dueling facility in the basement.

I started to make it right away. First of all, I made a plan and gathered everyone's opinions. I asked them to keep the place where Sephone was.

After that, Ruin and his team took the lead in creating a plan based on the completed plan. We completed 4 sides, and Lwin-san said a few words when he saw them.

''I'm afraid I've gotten off on the wrong foot...''

Well, when you hear of a dueling field, it's usually like this in your mind, isn't it?

I just wanted to follow up on that, but it looks exactly like the battlefield from the anime I used to watch when I was a kid.

Well, fighting on the battlefield from the anime I used to watch in the old days is just as sweet. Meru and the others immediately tried out the product.

Tact!　Lilly wants to do it too!

I'd love to, but you don't have a weapon.

'Don't worry about it!　Yes!

Hugues handed me a wooden sword.

''Ready...''

'Actually, I sold quite a few wooden swords in the beginning. These are the leftovers!

I didn't want to hear that kind of information, but I paid and we had a battle for a long time.

'Whoa!　I was defeated by Takuto with power~!

After fighting Lily, I noticed that apparently status points are out of range for Despena's range.

As a result, it was a fresh match that resulted in a power victory for Lily.

I had a complete advantage, but Ion, Love Fire, Ix and Bran still fought me and relieved the stress of the current situation of not being able to fight.

''Now I know what Takuto-san has been struggling with,''

Me too. Being outnumbered in power and speed is a huge handicap.
