After we signed up for the tournament, the system gave me a new mission. Simple enough, right? I just had to advance as far as possible to get a better reward. The problem was that I really didn't have much interest in participating... my main goal was to meet more people in the Master level and maybe convince them to follow me.

Although I didn't complain much about this either, it would be a good workout and it was okay to get some rewards as an incentive. Also… this tournament didn't seem as simple as I thought at first. I was confident of winning the tournament at the beginning, but...

"W-What is that damn old man doing?"

“…Don't ask me. I've always thought that everyone in the Ryozanpaku was strange people... even more than some of the Masters in Yami "

While we were registering for the tournament, a huge wall of meat was also in line... yes, even though he was wearing a mask, that was useless to hide the identity of the old man!!

...now I understand why the rank of the mission was one of the highest I have received so far even though I thought this mission was quite easy. And he was just one of the participants who caught my attention as I watched my opponents!

There was a bald man who was also on the second level of soul… although, this person was much less troublesome than the old man. He was not at the master level in his martial art. He only reached rank [B] on this one.

He was what you would consider a pseudo-Master, wasn't it? He was similar to the guy Shigure fought when Yami robbed the museum.

I don't know if this can be considered cheating or not. In fact, there were several people at that level, but instead of participating in the tournament, they only made some of his disciples enroll in this one. That man was the only one at that level who signed up to participate.

…I think that more than cheating, the other people considered themselves more someone at the master level despite not being one… so maybe they had their pride not to enter the tournament. Perhaps he can only be considered as someone cheeky... technically he was not at the master level and there should be nothing wrong with him participating.

Leaving the cheeky guy aside, the last person who caught my eye was a young man talking on a cell phone wearing a formal suit… the level above his head was [99], and his martial skill had a rank of [A]… I think this guy was one step closer to becoming a Master than the previous guy.

" Ogata… so you were here?"

" Kukuku... do we know each other?"

As I was watching him, the guy turns his head towards us, hangs up the phone, and then walks towards us until he stands in front of Ogata. Seeing the aura that the person gave off and the strong gaze towards him... as if he had killed his parents, I'm sure he was not his friend.

"It's been a few years so maybe you don't recognize me, but... you should remember my Master and my wife's father that you killed some years ago... I've been looking for you for a while to avenge him and I finally find you!"

"..."

Umu, no wonder the way he looked at him... he didn't kill his parents, but his father-in-law... damn it! I was just kidding around a bit, but… I'm almost right!!

I start to withdraw from Ogata as it seemed that at any moment they would start fighting. I didn't want to get caught up in this guy's trouble! Also, if Ogata defeats him, then less trouble for me.

Yes, it's true that this guy's past was pretty terrible, but… that was something the two of them should resolve out. It was not good for a third party to intervene.

Regrettably…

“… As you can see, this is not the best place to solve our problems, is it? We would inconvenience others or perhaps other people would intervene…

Besides, it seems that you are still not on the same level as me to fight… I don't like to intimidate the weak, kukuku.

Why don't you fight this boy first? If you defeat him, I promise to fight wherever and whenever you want. "

"..."

" Fuck you! Why are you putting me in your own trouble?!! "

As I tried to get away from them, Ogata suddenly pointed at me… and now the man was watching me curiously!

“…Don't listen to him, I hardly know him. If you have any resentment with him... "

I was going to tell him that he could fight Ogata, but… that would be no different than sending him to die. What Ogata says has some truth, this guy was not an adversary for him! If they fight, there's not much suspense in that… this man is sure to lose!!

…If he wants to fight Ogata despite that, it's his decision. But prompting him to do so is not a very good thing... I don't want to be responsible for his death.

“Well… after defeating your disciple, then we will sort things out between the two of us. You will not be able to avoid this further, Ogata."

"..."

Do you know what? Fuck the two of them! In the end, they both decided to get me involved in this despite my words so that they wouldn't!!

Let's ignore this... possibly the guy could lose to someone else. If he happens to fight the old man or the other guy with a level two soul, he shouldn't be able to proceed to the next round. Let's trust my luck!

Since the preliminaries were about to begin, I decided to go to the place where I would fight with the others on my side.

"There are quite a few people here..."

“In the end it was decided to make the tournament much bigger than planned… this way Yami would tell the world that we were at the top of martial arts.

It's not what you wanted? "

As Kushinada says, this could be said to fit my plans. The only problem was that I didn't expect that there would be so many people participating in the tournament... thanks to this, I don't know how many days this will last!

Also, this would turn that a bit boring. Most of the people were between the 5th and 8th limits with only a few reaching the 9th limit. Having to fight each opponent individually would be too tedious… there are like 5 thousand participants, you know?!!

The good thing is that Yami's guys probably thought the same...

The preliminaries were designed to filter out the weakest people and perhaps the most unfortunate as well. In a ring would enter from 50 to 100 participants, and then the last one standing would advance to the next round!

…Also, probably to avoid people from the same group having to fight against colleagues at this stage, teams of up to 5 people were formed. These 5 individuals would fight in different rings.

By the way, on my team were Tanimoto, Sigfrid, Judo- kun, Freya, and Kisara. Also, the boxer boy with Thor formed another team. At the Ryozanpaku group were Kenichi , Miu-chan, and Renka-chan. And Chikage -chan was on a Yomi team.

…let's wait and see how many of them make it to the next round. For now, I was praying that I wasn't unlucky enough to find the damn old man who now was wearing a mask in the same place that me!

Well, because we would fight in different places, we all split up. Or so I thought, but...

"You're not very lucky, are you?"

"...don't mention it please"

Thor was walking next to me... the poor guy had to fight in the same ring as me. He walked dejectedly upon realizing this… it's a shame that only one person could go through, so obviously I wasn't going to hold back with him. At least I'll leave it last so he can tell Freya that he almost won.

"…fuck!"

So when I get into the ring thinking about that and look at our opponents, I remember that I wasn't too lucky a guy either... I shouldn't have trusted my luck after all!

Well, it wasn't the worst thing that could have happened to me... the old man wasn't in this ring at least! But... the guy in a suit that I just split up with before, now he was standing here as he laid his eyes on me when he noticed me from among the others!!

"Boy, this is nothing personal..."

"Fuck you! For me, anyone who wants to hit me has taken things to something very personal!!"

"...don't worry, I'll try not to hurt you"

" Haaa~

…Well, I'll be a good person for once and save you from ending up dying or disabled. "

I had no choice but to defeat this person now. It certainly might not be so bad to try to convince him and bring him to Gaia, but it seems that he already has a family in this world and that was unlikely to happen.

…Of course, that's if we ignore the fact that he had a deadly grudge with Ogata.

“Well, you should have heard the rules when signing up for the tournament, but I'll repeat them anyway. Any firearm is prohibited to use… only cold weapons can be used.

At this stage, only the last one standing will advance to the next round. If any of you leave this ring you will be automatically disqualified. Finally, if someone surrender... then other people will no longer be able to attack the person who surrendered.

I wish you all luck. Start!!"

A man in a referee suit, seeing that no one else got into the ring, begins to say the rules. Yes, the people in this tournament could use knives, swords, or similar weapons... apparently, several disciples from Yami's armed faction were also participating.

Either way, it seems my luck wasn't that bad... the only troublesome guy in this place was that person from before, the others weren't much of a thing.

"Little girl... I'll do you a favor and take you out of the ring to prevent someone from hurting you... hehehe "

...as always, a person who could not read the atmosphere was not lacking. As I released my aura to avoid useless fights by making others think twice about choosing me as their opponent at the beginning, a big muscular man with a bare torso approaches me.

While he didn't seem to fear me, that was because this man couldn't even sense people's aura... in other words, it was someone too weak. Also, although his words seemed to show concern for me, his hands were moving strangely towards inappropriate places on my body...

"K- Kuuah!!!"

"...while they say that villains live a long time, fools do not."

Since the guy was not at all on guard against me, I literally dug my foot into his lower abdomen. I think I was tolerant enough not to use any special techniques against him... I just used my internal energy on that kick.

Well... maybe I wasn't very merciful either... the same thing will probably happen to him that the prince-siscon and his partner will become useless in the future. Also, since unlike him he had no energy to protect himself even a little, in his case it is surely something permanent.

The guy flies off by my kick and taking several other men with him that he hits on his way out of the ring. So it can be considered that it was not so useless in the end... at least he caused to other be disqualified with his own defeat.

" L-Let's get rid of this redhead first ..."

"...I agree"

"Un"

It's a shame that thanks to this, the attention of several other men is focused on me. So I have no choice but to activate my [ Seikuken ] and start fighting them.
