My Magic Tools Are Selling Too Well

23 – Festival and Colosseum (4)

The academy festival started in earnest.

The streets were lined with more stalls than on the eve, and there were vendors who brought odd games to make money for the spectators.

But no matter what anyone says, the flower of the festival is the Colosseum.

Many people came to the stadium to watch the undergraduates’ armed competition to determine the best aspiring warrior.

It wasn’t just spectators.

There were gamblers who bet gold through match predictions, and bad scammers who sold tickets for fun games.

The academy tried to regulate them as much as possible, but it was difficult to root out these evils wherever they went.

I broke through them and sat down with Shunika in a decent seat inside the stadium.

Of course, her condition was not looking very good.

“Hey… I think I’m going to die, Satchel… .”

“Can I get you an antidote?”

“no… It’s a waste… .”

“Ugh. So who eats that much? It’s a miracle that we won the finals in that state, a miracle.”

“Huh… I just wanted to drink… .”

Schunika said with a teary face.

It’s because yesterday’s hangover that I drank to death didn’t go away.

Yesterday we had a hard time with each other.

It’s hard because I drank too much Schnika, and I’m having a hard time getting the physical attack, which is the injection of Schnika… .

If it wasn’t for Ruen who was with him, he wouldn’t have been able to take Schnika home.

Shunika, who had been groaning with her head down, suddenly raised her face.

“How was the finals? Are you hurt anywhere?”

“You can see it. It’s not fine, it’s strong.”

My first opponent in the round of 128 was a senior in the swordsmanship department.

The match played at the gymnasium ended surprisingly blandly.

I even thought of using my body if I had to, but I ended up just using a few magic tools.

The opponent, who was careless, collapsed on his own as his attack was easily blocked.

It was because they fought while using the [Safe Cage] to build a defensive base to some extent.

In fact, if you are as good as the participant who passed through the final preliminary round, you can break through the [Safe Cage] barrier.

It’s hard, but it’s a wall that can be cut by a sword containing magical power.

However, the battle method he had never seen before and the various variables derived from it would have puzzled him.

How many times have you had to fight against the alchemy department in your life?

It was clear that fighting a non-human magic tool would be an unfamiliar feeling that he had never felt before.

Besides, in the case of [Safe Cage], even I, who made it, was the first to use it in battle.

Even more so, it is natural that the countermeasures do not come to mind.

Thanks to this, I was able to win easily by aiming for gaps.

I sprayed a few Exton-like things on it while it was equipped with a barrier, and it died.

“Satchel is really great. How did the sophomores of the Faculty of Alchemy make it to the 64th class?”

“… I don’t think I want to hear from you.”

Shunikawa Ruen also easily passed the round of 128.

Each of them met their seniors from the Faculty of Swords and Faculty of Magic, and both showed sophisticated use of magic and showed their skills not to be left behind by the seniors.

Even if it’s Luen…

Judging from how Shunika, who drank so much yesterday, beat the swordsmanship senior, this guy was also quite a strong type in real life.

The final round of ＜Academy Coliseum＞ consists of a total of 3 days, and on the first day, all round of 128 matches are played, followed by some round of 64 matches.

And on the second day, the remaining matches of the round of 64 and round of 32 were played, and on the last day, matches were played from the round of 16 to the final.

Ruen participated in today’s Round of 64 match and was the starter among the three.

We were watching from the inside of the stadium to watch Luen’s game.

“Shouldn’t Satchel go to the round of 64 later?”

“ok. Maybe it’ll be this next or next game. Was Schnika tomorrow?”

“huh. I’ll never play again in this state, never. I’m really glad I have a game tomorrow… .”

Schunika shook her head, then bowed her head again.

He burst into laughter at the sight and turned his gaze to the arena.

Ruen’s game was slowly moving toward the finish line.

In the middle of the stadium, in the middle of the stadium, students who were hired as commentators could be seen relaying the game with volume-amplifying magic tools.

-Ah~ Clay player. Breaks Ruen’s magic with Pafe’s sword and charges forward. Player Luen, it’s a crisis!

Ruen’s opponent this time is the second-ranked third-year student in the swordsmanship department.

He was an undergraduate student who made a name for himself in the fencing department.

As if he didn’t get the title of second-in-command in the senior year for nothing, he shattered Luen’s magic by unleashing the [Pafe’s Sword] that Shunika had shown him the other day.

An imminent crisis situation.

However, as if he expected all of them, Ruen’s expression did not change.

– Tempest! The Tempest is cast! Oh, Luen is amazing! He’s only a sophomore, but he’s using such high-level magic!

[Tempest].

A very high-level, high-ranking magic that applies wind pressure to the opponent with strong wind like a typhoon.

Even while her magic was being pulverized with [Pahe’s Sword], Luen was preparing an additional blow that would give her a big blow.

The opponent who had already spent a lot of mana to shatter the existing magic had no mana left to destroy Luen’s [Tempest].

‘That’s almost the level of a genius?’

Who would believe that this is a skill achieved through hard work?

Her situational judgment and casting speed were close to that of an active warrior.

The match ended with Luen winning as it was.

It was an overwhelming victory that allowed no scratches.

“Shunika. The Luen game is over.”

“uh? already?”

Schnika’s head snapped once again.

It looks like a squirrel with an acorn in front of it.

I laughed and tousled her hair.

“I’m going to the game soon. I’m going to ask Ruen to buy some hangover cure, so take a break here.”

“Hi-Hi. Thanks, Satchel. Be sure to win.”

* * *

Lenia Tirpe was not in a good mood.

Colosseum finals where students participate as senior faculty members.

This is because he was the first to fall in the first match of the round of 128.

I didn’t expect much because it was an alchemy department with relatively low combat power compared to other departments, but I didn’t expect to be eliminated from the first game at light speed.

It was quite embarrassing to lose without being able to do anything, as the head of the department.

“Don’t be too heartbroken, my brother. Originally, it was difficult to fight well with alchemy. And isn’t Lenia still in her second year?”

Ariel, who was sitting next to her and watching the Coliseum match, gave her comfort instead of consolation.

That was true.

It was a really unusual case for a student at the Faculty of Alchemy, moreover, a sophomore to win the final match.

It is in the lower grades of the undergraduate school that classes focus on theory rather than practice.

It is safe to say that most of the lessons learned in the lower grades were the basis for the lessons learned in the upper grades.

Therefore, it was only natural for them to struggle in the match against the seniors, whose classes were focused on actual combat.

This applies to all faculties, not just alchemy department.

So, it was difficult for most of the lower grades who appeared in the finals as senior faculty members to avoid being eliminated in the round of 128.

Of course, that didn’t comfort Renia at all.

Because you’ve already seen the exception case.

“Ugh… That guy is in the 2nd year, alchemy department, but he went up. Do you know your sister?”

“of course. I came all the way here to watch our Sacher military game. Oh, it’s starting soon. Please feel free to see that you have already fallen.”

“Profit, really… !!”

Aside from the sisters’ bickering, Sacher Philippe, a popular figure, was walking out of the arena.

A genius of alchemy who received the attention of the academic world while creating a creative magic tool called [Safe Bird Cage].

A lot of people were looking forward to what the genius would show this time.

Ariel focused a little more on the magic tools he made rather than his natural fighting skills.

Unless it’s a special case, alchemists are people who fight with the performance of magic tools they’ve made.

‘Maybe he made a new magic tool again.’

The Colosseum stage, the most suitable showcase for introducing new products.

If he had surprised the academia every time, he could have brought a new magic tool here.

Sacher’s opponent this time is the 3rd year head of the swordsmanship department.

As befits the round of 64 game where the strong players are revealed in earnest, the top and bottom seats in each department were showing one after another.

In addition, for the alchemist who prefers long-distance combat, the opponent of the Faculty of Swords was a very bad opponent.

-Academy Coliseum Round of 64! the fourth game. Taylor, the 3rd year head of the Faculty of Swordsmanship, and Sacher Phillip, the genius of the alchemy department that the Empire is paying attention to! The match between the two, which is the center of the topic, is happening right now!

The commentator’s raucous call to start the match came out.

“ah… .”

As soon as Ariel saw her opponent, she let out an exclamation of pity.

Because I thought there was little chance of winning.

Although alchemists are weak in combat, they are at least worth fighting against wizards.

In any case, they’re doing long-distance combat.

However, if the Faculty of Swords was the opponent, it was really difficult.

Due to the nature of an alchemist who has to fight while taking magic tools out of a bag, there is really no answer if the swordsman digs in without giving time.

In addition, if it is a high-level test such as the senior senior, the difficulty level rises more vertically.

There was a high possibility that the game would end without any time to do anything.

It occurred to me that maybe I could end up not seeing the new product at all.

Cool-headed abstention might have been a more efficient method.

But that was then.

As soon as the match started, Sacher immediately threw a large magic stone to the ground.

Then, he put his hand on the spot and cast some magic.

It was a situation that happened in an instant before the opponent in the fencing department could respond.

intense glow.

They exploded from all sides and wrapped around the arena.

“crazy!”

Ariel jumped up from her seat.

Because an unbelievable scene unfolded before my eyes.

If I remember correctly, this was definitely a magic that corresponds to [Summon], which is a special magic among alchemy magic.

– What is this!

And as if this wasn’t Ariel’s only intuition, countless people in the audience stood up from their seats.

The commentary that was broadcast was no exception.

Everyone opened their eyes to confirm the ‘something’ that appeared in the arena through a halo of light.

“ah… !!”

“That… !!”

Eventually, the halo of light disappeared, and something appeared.

The faint form was slowly coming into the eyes of the spectators as a distinct real thing.

people who saw it

Everyone exclaimed in exclamation.

that…

-Golem! A golem appears. Sacher Phillip has summoned a Golem to the pitch!

that.

Boasting the majesty of a gigantic form,

It was [Golem].
