Volume 2, Chapter 6: Ashes and Red Riding Hood
Baretoria′s Shooting Tournament. It is said that in the history of Baretoria, it is a ceremonial festival that is venerable. Those who have surpassed the tough qualifiers of each region are cutting the gap......only one person will survive. The winner is given the highest honor and reward and seems to be treated like a hero.
"You finally came......" Craft
A huge Colosseum built in the center of Belzia. This is the place of the shooting tournament and now the surrounding area was filled with an overwhelming number of people. Regardless of domestic and overseas, many people gathered at a glance at the moment when a hero will be born, it would have been a good tourism unless we were in a situation where we were in a downhill situation.
"Let's decide quickly Venu" Craft
"Ye, Yes. I guess I′ll be fine" Venu
I hit the shoulder of Venu sideways by the procession lined with the general admission entrance. Venu changed the clothes she exchanged with Musashi and wears a new dress. Her face is quite pale and apparently she seems to be nervous in front of the tournament.
"Achya, I'm getting down!" Venu
"Umm, Venu. So hard you can not bring out your full power?" Kaitos
Kaitos in rest mode peeps into Venu's face anxiously while fluttering her small wings. On the other hand, Venu hurriedly denied the worrying.......
"It's Venusera! Well, I am nervous......!!" Venu
"Shashasha. I can not see it so much" Orochi
Walking behind Venu was Orochi who laughed loudly. Long silver hair and orange eyes. The poncho she is wearing hasn't changed, but she has made a big change since last night. She seemed like a different person s......a terrible change.
"......This is, as I thought, that thing, right?"
"What’s that? Please don’t stare so much?"
The height which extended greatly to the fluent way of talking. Along with it, a slightly bulging chest appeared....... The missing of the girl likeness, features to peek into bewitching. So, in short, she grew up. She changed completely from the first appearance which looked younger than Leona and her appearance now will be 14 or 15 years. The age of the appearance might be not related so much because the actual age of Orochi will exceed every imagination.
"Well, it's been pretty until last night. Shorty" Kaitos
"If you think that the contents grew as well as the appearance, it is about the rebellious period" Craft
"What it is like a guardian...... seriously, it feels like that" Craft
"Ushaa, hey hey. Did you combine it!" Orochi
Even though we are her life benefactor, this ungrateful snake......
"Ushaaa. Come on, get the receptionist. I keep walking in the morning and my legs are sore" Orochi
That's it, Orochi sitting on the bench set up on the outer wall of the Colosseum. The size of the poncho which was large was exactly perfect size and the bare legs that would be visible every time she rearrange them is brilliant. Well, I'm not interested in a brat.
"Ah, Craft. Our child has strayed from the right path......" Kaitos
Since when did she become our child, that tsukkomi is thoughtless.
"Hey Kaitos, that's all......" Craft
"Umm, I know. Apparently seems to have robbed some of my magical powers" Kaitos
Kaitos who is flying next to me gently strokes so that only I can hear it. The fact that Orochi who got lost and turned into a young girl grew into a girl in her puberty in this way is that she is regaining her original power. Its probability will probably be sticky to Kaitos.
"What are you going to do? I think the sooner you hit her hand, the better......" Kaitos
"No, as long as I can't understand the real intention of her, I shouldn't put my hands on her yet" Craft
If Orochi regains her power to some extent, the battle will intensify and the surroundings will be damaged. It is not a good idea to fight in such a place where there are so many people, and it would be better not to irritate badly unless it is not decided that Orochi is bad.
"But don't neglect your vigilance. I will keep as much watch as possible" Kaitos
"I got it. I'll be wary of any more magic" Craft
"Craft-sensei? What are you talking with Kaitos since a while ago?" Meri
Meri is coming in front of Kaitos and me as we discuss about Orochi. Does she stay here so that Venu doesn't have to worry unnecessarily before the tournament?
"It's nothing. Let's finish the reception quicker than that" Craft
"Th, that's right! Once the reception time has passed, all the plans are water bubbles!" Venu
Venu recalls the original purpose and starts walking towards the reception tent in a nervous tense situation. Being worried about Venu, we decided to follow behind her.
"But Craft. I guess there is a qualifying in this tournament. Venu hasn't received that qualifying, is not it possible to participate in the competition like this?" Kaitos
"Ah, that's okay. Yesterday I was also worried and asked, but the second place of the previous tournament seems to be able to use the seed right, so she can qualify from the sudden final selection" Craft
It is said that those who won the shooting tournament can't participate again. In that case, the second place of the previous tournament will be the winner. So they are given seed rights.
"I'm relieved! Venu's shooting skills are wonderful!" Meri
"I am not worried about it, but there are many other problems" Craft
One of the problems is the reception that Venu is doing now, but......whether it will go well or not isn't known. There is no other choice but to pray to the heaven.
"Ah, emm......I, I would like to participate in the tournament" Venu
"Welcome to the reception desk of the 50th Baretorian shooting tournament. Present your presentation if you have a participation certificate. If you have any other requirements please use this form" receptionist
"Ee......emm, it's this paper" Venu
It seems that the receptionist's level is quite high because it is a competition related to the prestige of the country. Even if she looks at Venu′s figure, she won't change her complexion, and urging a smooth procedure......done!
"I've written. Sorry for the inconvenience, but please accept it" Venu
"Yes, I got it. Wanting a seed frame Venusera Lloyd......Dibair, is it? One moment I will check if the application content is incomplete" Receptionist
After looking at the received paper, the receptionist stands up and leaves somewhere. Well, this feeling......After all, have you been hand-turned? With Musashi′s blunder, it will already be exposed that we have escaped.......
"The only possibility that I'm betting is......that guy will help" Craft
"That guy? What do you mean, Craft. Do you have a friend who is supposed to be our strength?" Kaitos
'It is a friend or a fellow who rebelled my heart, perhaps he ought to hit his hand" Craft
Nonetheless, it can be expected that the assistance can be expected in half.
"Uu......I seem to spit out last night's calorie" Venu
"......Venusera-sama, I kept you waiting" Receptionist
As we keep watching, the receptionist returns and walks in front of Venu. What it will be? Is it okay or......?
"Although it is the seed frame you applied, you can use it without problems. Venusera-sama has been decided to participate from the eighth match of the main tournament at 2.pm" Receptionist
"Is it true?" Venu
"Yes, I pray for Venusera-sama's good luck" Receptionist
"CrCr, Craft! I did it! I can participate!" Venu
With a smile in full bloom, Venu runs to this place with pleasure.
"Very good, but it's too early to show your emotions" Craft
"Yes. But, unlike last time were I participated in the qualifying matches......this time I don't need to do it as I′m seeded, but I feel bad for the preliminaries" Venu
Hiding the feature, winning the preliminaries from the preliminaries to the final round. Regardless of the final result, there seems to be a place to think about Venu that knows its difficulty to participate in the seed frame.
"Well, if you win, you are the number one that's the fact, so if you think that it is bad for the preliminary, you have to win with overwhelming difference" Craft
"Th, that's right! I will make sure to win this tournament once I win!" Venu
"Hou, Venu′s turn is at 2 o'clock, so you need to eat lunch before then" Meri
"NaaNaa Venu! The cooking stalls are going to be delicious?" Kaitos
"It's Venuseral! Mou, we'll go to report to Orochi-chan first!" Venu
Three people rushing to the bench where Orochi waits with the feeling of excitement after an usual interaction. Well, I also want to chase after them......but I have to check something before.
"Hey, the receptionist over there" Craft
"Yes? Do you need something from me?" Receptionist
"Who were you going to take the confirmation before? Was it the first princess?" Craft
Asking the receptionist who got back to the window, she turns to the side with a face that is troubled only for a moment. It was exactly the expression that I wanted to see to get the answer.......
"Ah, it's enough. It is enough to know that she is nearby" Craft
Perhaps she was waiting since the reception began. When we come to the reception like this, immediately give instructions to the receptionist......so that the receptionist can give permission to let Venu participate in the tournament.
"......Yoo, elder sister. How about not hiding in such a place and come out?" Craft
As the receptionist got closer towards the line of sight directed towards it, a blonde head is sticking out as if peeking through from the shadow of the entrance for the stakeholders who clung to the inside of the colosseum. This brilliance, gloss hair is almost the same as Venu's hair......, it can only be that person.
"Oh, why are you in such a place?" Prinella
"Stop playing at all, I'm aware of it already" Craft
Unlike the first impression, Prinella seems to be pretty funny. While she says something, I can see that those two are sisters.
"Haa? What a smell! Somehow this smell is really impolite!" Prinella
Prinella who jumped out from the entrance aisle in front of me stares at me. It is my sister-in-law who is badly conceited.
"Don't talk about body odor, you smell like Venu anyway" Craft
"......Th, That's right. I know you well, I'm going to compliment you" Prinella
This time she turns around and it is a good-looking Prinella. Is she easy to handle?
"Hey PriPri. I can not say it well, but thank you very much" Craft
"My name is Prinella! Did I do something to make you thank me!?" Prinella
Although it is Prinella who doesn't try to admit it naturally, it is impossible for her to realize it is so blatant. Whatever she thinks, Prinella's true mind is──
"You, You don't dislike Venu anyway" Craft
"Nbuaa! Wh, Why are you saying such a quack?" Prinella
"I already noticed that you sent a letter against the marriage, anyway" Craft
The head of the blonde as it is jumps like a bouncy. Instead of being easy to understand, it seems weak to shake.
"You were trying to send a letter against the marriage, to pull Venu back to Baretoria......you wanted her to go to the shooting tournament and win the prize" Craft
Even without going to the qualifying, Venu who can participate in the seed frame has a high possibility of winning because of her ability. If she is possible to win it......the highest honor is waiting for her.
"If she wins, she may not be bullied because of her hair color anymore, so she will lose her nickname as ash-haired princess and sister's drowsiness, so you sisters can become friends......" Craft
"Haaa? I′m good friends with Ve, Venusera? Not......not the least, I can't accept the lowest thing!" Prinella
To what extent I am standing, Prinella looks at the other side and hides her expression.
"Have you been purposely fighting to make Venu defeat her opponents and motivate her? If so, you′re a fool, as Venu who do not want to lose will aim for the victory with desperation" Craft
"......Ah, I didn't want to motivate her" Prinella
Considering this, all the things fits together. She didn't do any imitations that would hurt Venu as she repeatedly told me to offend herself......she also overlooked our escape.
"Don't worry. We don't care about your thoughts, we are aiming for the victory from the beginning" Craft
"......Hmm, just a little talk from a little while ago, is it all the imagination of you?" Prinella
"Yeah, I do not have any confirmation, I just think of it without permission" Craft
"To that extent you have a confident face, do not you think you can hardly believe me in the first meeting for the moment, you are an idiot, a funny idiot?" Prinella
Her blue eyes have been pouring a grueling gaze into my eyes, as if she explores my true heart. So neither I nor she is bargaining anything. Let's tell a word without false thoughts.
"You are Venu′s sister" Craft
"......Ne? Because I am Venusera's older sister?" Prinella
"Yes. You are the sister of that gentle Venu, which when I heard about past things from Venu I thought you were a hero......but actually you see me" Craft
Hair color. Facial expression. gesture. voice. Clothing. Of course there are such parts, too. Where she talk in a strong tone to hide her true heart. She was called by a nickname and got stuck. Occasionally, the place where she is gazing at Venu with lovely eyes. That feeling oozing out from various parts. Warmth remember......without doubt.
"You looked like Venu. It's an element that I trust enough for just that." Craft
Even when I helped Orochi who is similar to Kaitos. If my beloved bride, if it is close to her existence......I don't think that one is a bad guy.
"If you do make a fool, do that, but I do not mean to change my mind" Craft
"......I′m not an idiot. There is no one in my eyes to begin with" Prinella
Once again, Prinella diverts her line of sight from me again and returns to the entrance leading to the inside of the Colosseum. At that time, pointing at the reception tent at the back, she continues to open her mouth.
"Oh yes, the gun I took from you is in there, it's not a sweet tournament that you can win with a spare gun......so you recover it quickly" Prinella
"Ah, which reminds me Virgil was taken up as well" Craft
I didnt think about it. Even though he was originally my partner......sorry Virgils.
"Emm......Craft, it's alright? There's just one last thing I need to say" Prinella
"Hmm? Do you still have anything left to say?" Craft
Just before fading into the Colosseum, Prinella turns around here by accident.
"......please take care of that girl" Prinella
It was a momentary event......but I could see it well and heard it.
"To make that kind of gentle smile. As I though, she’s her sister" Craft
"Craft! What are you doing so long?" Venu
The voice of Venu who calls from afar is heard. Well, it looks like I have kept her waiting.
"Ah, I will come now! Bringing a big souvenir"
How to take the mood of the former beloved gun that will be forgotten and sulky. I was so happy that I started walking towards the reception tent. Inside the Colosseum wrapped in cheers and enthusiasm. Unlike the general visitors who crushed in the circular bleachers, the contestants and their stakeholders were waiting for the time of their turn in the dressing room.
"Hmm, sixteen people in total, if you win four times, you will win......" Kaitos
While the air is hyper with tension, Kaitos, which was embraced by Orochi, murmurs while gazing at the tournament table posted on the wall of the waiting room.
"ShaShaaa! Long until you get the sacred stone! Let's finish it quickly!" Orochi
"Hey, Orochi. Don't get noisy because you will get in the way of other contestants" Venu
"Separately it is okay, because Orochi thinks you are going to win, so don't bother with it" Kaitos
That's why Orochi glances at the contestants who are sitting on chairs prepared in the waiting room and taking care of their guns. Her face was full of pure malice, with no fragments of innocence.
"You cant do it, Orochi-chan. I cant tolerate you manipulating this sacred competition" Venu
Venu arouse Orochi while embracing her returned magic gun.
"Besides, everyone here has won through quite a lot of qualifyings, so it doesn't make much sense to make a disturbance" Venu
"The aura is different just by looking at it like this" Craft
Unlike Venne who took us with her, the other contestants silently gone solitary and kept cleaning their guns. It seems that they think only about about the degree of the sound of the vicinity, such as this noise.
"Uuu, I dont like this kind of air" Venu
"Anyway, all you have to do is beat them here......kishaa!" Orochi
"I will win without doing that, so please support me too, Orochi-chan" Venu
Venu sitting on a chair adjusts various guns arranged on a desk.
"From a sniper gun to a shotgun......do you need so many guns?" Craft
"Yes, the content of the tournament's match will be made available just before the match, at that time I choose several guns that I am going to use" Venu
In other words, it is difficult to win if you are not able to handle a large number of guns. That's why a magic gun is advantageous. If it is a magic gun, you can change the type of bullet with your magical power.
"I'm getting hungry from waiting" Kaitos
"Yes, my belly is also ringing since a little while ago" Orochi
Even though we just now finished lunch......this hungry pair.
"I'll buy you something later, so please be patient a little more, Venu's match is starting soon" Craft
"I don't care. Let's suppose that I eat the sweets on the desk there until that time" Kaitos
"I don't mind eating them, but don't step on my shoulder, I will eat it......is it already time?" Meri
While we are interacting, two contestants who finished their match come back to the waiting room. One is frustrated and has his shoulder dropped down and the other has a sunny look on his face. If you look at the appearance that light and dark are separated clearly, the winner and loser is obvious.
"Now the contestants of the seventh match. Next is your turn" Staff
"Venuseral! We all will cheer for you, so do your best!" Meri
"Yes, I will do my best for Bunna. Craft and everyone else, please wait here with relief" Venu
Actually, I don't think that Venu will lose. However, only the words that Prinella said a while ago is a little worrisome and it cant be helped.
"......Don't be afraid Venu. Whatever you hear from the surroundings, I......we are your friends" Craft
"Huhuu, I know that. I am the happiest person in the world" Venu
With various guns in her sleeves and dress, Venu rises from the chair. I admire that the amount of gun is enough to fit in......
"Happy? Haa, can you don't make me laugh? Venusera-sama" Contestant
One of the contestants who are waiting in the waiting room stands up in a hurry and turns his face towards us. It was an aristocratic man who had a fearless face and a slender tall body.
"Why are you selling quarrels, I buy anything" Craft
"You′re like the rumors, Prince Craft. You are a rumored person" Contestant
The way the man talks also sticks to the nose, let me become increasingly annoyed. Suddenly involved, what is that guys′s purpose.
"Oops, this is rude. I'm always in trouble with this mouth of mine that is honest" Snobby man
"Please tell me the matter at the moment. You are busy before the match" Venu
Venu protects me and I stare at the snobby man. I don't want to be too rough as Venu will be troubled if I move my hand.......
"Let me assure you that only I will win this competition. Venusera-sama is impossible" Snobby man
The man ignores my gaze and looks down at Venu while talking sarcastically.
"You said a funny thing earlier. It is not permissible to disturb this sacred competition......kukuu, it is a line of this place" Snobby man
"......I ask you, but what does that mean?" Venu
"The fact that the ash-haired princess participates is a stain to this tournament and also you brought vulgar people into Bunna......no wonder it smells bad here" Snobby man
These words create a low laughter in the waiting room. Only one woman who stood while stretching her arms around the corner of the waiting room isn't smiling.
"Giggles. Noo......what's this dress, isn't it ashamed?" Contestant 1
"Ahahahaa, you can be like a savage Bunna person. I feel like I'm in the zoo" Contestant 2
Contestants who had been silent until now also began to hang behind the scenes against Meri. Is this discrimination to Bunna? It is my first time to witness......seriously disgusting.
"Ahahahaa! You will not win. Everyone here will prevent Venusera′s victory ba all means, although this one will beat you in the first round......" Contestant
"Chit, I cant believe it. Who's winning is unimportant......what are you doing, as long as you participate in the tournament, anyone who aims to win is the same. It doesn't matter" Venu
Even if everyone in this waiting room had Venu as an enemy, they are all here to destroy everyone and win the tournament. Whatever you say to everyone it won't change.
"I'm going to have to affirm.It's definitely my Venu who wins the tournament" Craft
"Yeah, that's right, Craft! I'm the one who will win!" Venu
That snobby man retreats out of frighten of the powerful words from Venu.
"Argh, I'll teach you soon. the limitations of your abilities!" Snobby man
Far from winning Venu, this guy will not even be a opponent. I was convinced that while watching the back of the snobby man going to the match place ahead, leaving dirty words behind.
"Ugaa! I dont smell! Ah he is totally a fool!" Meri
"Naturally you smell like a flower......I also like the smell of Meri's sweat" Craft
"Uehaaa! Ah, don't smell my sweaty body......so" Meri
When I sniff with my nose, Meri became flustered and bent backwards. Even though it is such a nice scent...... that snobby man, I bet he never smelled the smell of a woman.
"Huh, He might be a powerful person, but he will cry soon by my hand" Venu
"Ah, it seems that your attitude is arrogant as you are confident in your tight arm" Craft
So thinking, Venu should be careful about the woman in the corner who hasn't smiled a while ago. Don't look down or lick your opponent before the game......such a thorough guy is awkward.
"Craft, thank you for taking the time to protect me, I will show you something good in return. I was taught by grandpa Arcelus......the best shooting technique" Venu
Venu steps out of the waiting room and walks towards the corridor, following the snobby man. There is nothing to compare between her back and that snobby man′s back......as a strong will was felt.
"Now......although the results are clear, I will definitely go to worship Venu's brave appearance" Craft
"That's right, Craft. Venu, will probably show off......" Kaitos
"ShaShaShaa! It will be interesting to see that guy′s losing face" Orochi
"Well if it is Venu-narachan! Believe and watch attentively" Meri
We go to the passage that goes to the spectator's seat side, opposite to the direction Venu has advanced. It seems to be annoying with people being crowded, but this is also for cheering.
"Don't lose Venu. Against that snobby man......more than anything" Craft
When Venu showed up, accusations and scoldings fly from the hall. However, even though such a hardship is made, Venu will overcome it. I believe so. Hey Venu──
The first time I experienced a celebratory venue......where the venue of an opera Zenan took me to when I was a child. The spectators quieted down like holding their breathing before cheering greatly as the opera ended. Some got up and some gave am applause by clapping their hands. Perhaps it was the greatest tribute to art that made the minds of all the audience be unified. But what I see now is......it was the complete opposite to such a beautiful cheer.
"Return! Quickly get out of sight Baretoria′s disgrace!" Spectator 1
"Don't participate in the shooting tournament at the perimeter of the ash-haired princess! Don't you know your place!" Spectator 2
"It’s fine so just lose! Lose quickly! Lose miserably!" Spectator 3
To the contrary, abusive phrases which cant be thought as directed to the former princess of one's country. Some spit and others had thrown garbage a number of times toward the match field. From the spectator seat of 360 degrees omni-directional wrapping around the match place, a malicious mass against a single girl standing in the center will fall down without mercy. Her blond hair is mixed with gray hair slightly. Only for that reason she is......Venu is swallowed by a vicious vortex.
"Craft......I, I will lose myself in anger" Kaitos
"Calm down Kaitos. I feel the same, but I managed to clench my teeth somehow" Craft
Kaitos furiously clenches her fangs. If I don't stop her, it is easy to imagine that she will fight against this Coliseum with a battle. I also want to do so. But the only thing stopping me at the brink is......the reason that Venu who is the person in question is going to fight the match with gentle eyes.
"Uuuu, shaa! Humans are absolutely crazy, I wish they could perish" Orochi
"The majority may not even think so. But look at it, Orochi. Some humans are the best of them" Craft
Beyond my line of sight, there is Venu′s figure looking into the scope of the sniper gun that she picked up. The long-distance shooting that was chosen for this match is a balloon that floats in the sky far. It is seen only in the bean grain from the ground though it keeps a certain height by the bound thread. Moreover, even if the height is constant, the aim has been hard to put because it is always fanned by the wind. There are three red and three light blue. After the game starts, the winner will be the one who destroys all of his balloons first.
"Venu has the light blue balloons, red belongs to that guy......" Craft
"Hey Hey Craft-sensei. This match is obviously not a disadvantage to Venu, right?" Meri
As Meri says. Unlike conspicuous red color, light blue is assimilated with sky color, so it is inconspicuous. Red is an advantageous if you think about it.
"But for Venu, it doesn't matter what color it is" Craft
"Shaa? What do you mean?" Orochi
"Well, just watch it. If you look aside, you'll miss the moment of the conclusion." Craft
"Kyshashashaa! What is it! It won't be settled so soon!" Orochi
"No. I'm sure it will" Craft
If my expectation is right, the match will be a moment. While booing down like a flood......the referee who stands at the side of the two contestants who aim at the sky with their sniper rifles now swept the flags in his hands──right after. Pang, Pang, Pang!
"......Look" Spectator
Suddenly, the booing sounding in the colosseum stops. Venu′s opponent, the referee......even the audience lose their words to such astonishment.
"This is the end of the match with this......what would that guy say now" Craft
When Venu takes her eyes off the scope and put the sniper rifle in the dress, she returns to the entrance leading to the waiting room. As much as to say, there is no need to even confirm the victory or defeat. Of course. Because all the light blue balloons in the sky were destroyed in the blink of an eye.
"Sho, winner contestant Venusera!" Referee
A few seconds later, the referee who understood may have caught up. The booing which had stopped changed to a roaring and everyone was puzzled by looking at each other′s face.
"Yashashaa! gr-ea-t, wo-rk!" Orochi
"Those elevated balloons that are difficult to capture with the eyes......good job Venu!" Kaitos
"Uuhyaa! Incredible Incredible Incredible! Cool Venu!" Meri
"I can't do that. I'm good at controlling multiple magic guns......when it becomes the distance to there, the aim is not made first of all. It's a continuous fire at that speed" Craft
Even if it is a gun with a high magnification, you will need to calculate the resistance of the wind in live ammunition. Three consecutive shots in that moment. No, it was misdirected.
"Now, let's honor the success of our princess!" Kaitos
"Umm. I must praise her by myself" Craft
Going down the stairs at the side of the venue, we start walking towards the waiting room for the contestants again.
"Shaa, very soon coming into my possession......in that case......" Orochi
On the way, Orochi who was walking next to me leaks such words.
"What are you doing, Orochi! Do not be absent minded and come along properly!" Craft
"Ueei......shaashaashaa!!" Orochi
It seems that she is still planning something. Even though I cant keep my eyes on Orochi all the time, everything will become useless if we make a noise and makes the tournament to be stopped. The only thing I can do is to watch her while not showing my doubts......there is no need to act now.
"Oooohoohoohoohoo! That amount, it is a piece of a cake!" Venu
More than half of the contestants now leave and left the waiting room. Although some cold eyes are sent from the remaining contestants, Venu is laughing energetically. Yeah, it seems to be nice to finish the match quickly.
"But Venu, well with those disadvantageous light blue balloons, you've shot so fast" Kaitos
"It is Venusera! Well, there is nothing wrong with disadvantage! Rather, I think that the red balloons were hard to hit" Venu
"The red balloons......why is that?" Kaitos
Kaitos looks doubtful at Venu who sits on the chair and adjusts her guns again. As for Orochi, she was grasping the sweets in the waiting room and eat them like bored.
"In fact, I did not want to have the red balloon anyway, because if I wanted to finish it quickly I hoped not to get the red ones......so I was happy I got the light blue balloons" Venu
"MushaMushaa......hapuu. Why didn't you want to break the red balloons?" Orochi
"Red balloons......red......you possibly?" Craft
When I noticed a certain possibility, when I raised my voice, the face of Venu instantly became red like the red balloon. Ah, it is about her sister after all......uh.
"Hohoo, the red balloons resembled Craft. Huhuu, cute" Kaitos
"Yo, You′re noisy! That is different!" Venu
Venu hit the desk and jumped out of the waiting room with her guns.
"I will pick up some flowers until the next match!" Venu
It seems that she was in a hurry to bother to leave such a line.
"ShaaShaaShaa. Cute Shaahh" Orochi
"It's before the match, don't bother with it" Craft
There are four matches in the second round in the ensuing but the second match is being done now. As winning, the intervals between matches get shorter and shorter, so it's tough.
"Kaitos. The match is about to start soon, let's go take another seat together again" Craft
"... It's okay, but it's time to stop thinking again" Kaitos
"I understand, understand. Therefore let me hold you in my arms" Craft
I caught Kaitos who was flying in the air and Orochi who also tried to leave the waiting room. I'm sure Kaitos is on the lookout, and I don't think I'm worried.......
"Naahaahaahaa! We go all together" Meri
"Ah, but it makes me think that I'm in heaven just because you are here" Craft
It would have been very uncomfortable to be left alone here. To that proof......
"I'm the next one......I will not lose to that ash-haired thing" Contestant
"I'm not going to lose against the ash-haired princess either" Contestant
Contestants refuse to glare this way without hiding enmity. The contestants remaining here are four of eight people who have survived the first round. One of the four who aren't here is Venu and two others are currently fighting in the second round. And the last one has already lost the first second round match. Yes, the first match in the second round ended in a moment just like Venu.
"Hey Nois, if you are a lady, you can definitely defeat the ash-haired princess" Contestant
"This lady will definitely get the victory. Also do your best for your father" Contestant
"It’s not like.......it’s not related to, the princess, I only, want to compete" Nois
The other female contestant is called Nois by the contestants. She has the skill to finish a match in a couple of seconds which was seen in the first round and the second round. She is probably a contestant who will win the final against Venu. She isn't petite like Venu but has small bulges on her chest. She is also blonde, dressed in a red costume that is unlikely for an Baretorian and has twin tails as hairstyle. The place where the change of the expression is scarce might be near the atmosphere to Zenan.
"Nois......?" Craft
"Hmm? Are you interested in that contestant?" Kaitos
"...Well, I guess that she is the most annoying opponent" Craft
I was concerned about this girl before Venu's first round was held. That's because Nois alone did not respond to the provocation to Venu that let Kaitos became enraged before the match. Just wait for the time of the match with the arms folded and win and return when you come in. It can be said that it is such a stoic that it is impressed by its enemies to be defeated.
"......Jiiiiiiiii" ???
"Hmm......? Wh, What is it? Is something attached to my face?" Craft
I noticed that I was observed and Nois turned a hot line of sight toward here as much as returning. I was unconsciously frustrated by that much attention.......
"Red hair......red eyes. I want it" Nois
When she mutters so as to squeeze out, Nois distorts her mouth greatly. Oh, what? What did she say she wanted now?
"You, alright......?" Craft
As soon as I tried to speak to Nois again, the door of the waiting room is opened. What happened and I looked back──
"Aaaaaaaaaahh! Nii-san, I wanted to meet yoouuu!!" Efrika
"Guii! Efrikaaa!!" Craft
It is Efrika that has dived into me by spreading her hands, wearing the same as me, exactly the same as when we parted in the prison yesterday. I try to embrace her soonly, but......guuu, chest! Boin, the elasticity of her big chest, I got pushed down to the floor. It is not as big as Igina, but this chest is also the best!
"Idedede......dde, you! Did you escape from the prison?" Craft
"Nbuhiii, Nii-san's fragrance, Nii-san's warmth......suu, haa, suu, haahh!" Efrika
Haven't heard. Well, it means that Musashi is also here......
"E, Efrika-dono! It is my turn! You′re sly!" Musashi
As expected, it was Musashi who came into the waiting room next. She is still wearing Venu′s dress, but the size is still not fitting.
"Good Good! Sensei, me too me too!!" Meri
"You guys calm down. it is annoying to the other contestants, so let's go out to the hallway!" Craft
As I avoid the gaze of the contestants who are stymied by sudden events, I got up quickly and thrust Efrika, Musashi and Meri towards the corridor.
"......Red increased. I want it" Nois
I heard uneasy words from Nois again, but it is through. After closing the door so that people in the middle could not hear the story, I cut out the story once more as well as reshuffling.
"After all, have you escaped?" Craft
"No, we have been released so suddenly!" Musashi
"I came so quickly to meet Nii-san in a hurry! Well, hug me quickly!" Efrika
I see. It is because it is no longer necessary to detain Efrika and Musashi by interacting with me this morning. Prinella......she is better than I thought.
"I am glad you returned safely, I brought clothes for you, so I hope you change clothes later" Craft
"Igiiii! Nii-san......it hurts, it hurts but it feels good!" Efrika
"Good. I also want a reward" Musashi
I intentionally embracing Efrika with considerable power, but Musashi is envious. Is it a reward or a punishment.
"Haaahaaa......ga-i-ga-n" Efrika
"You had better see a doctor once Efrika?" Craft
"Regrettably because I′m the best healer of this continent" Efrika
I liberate from Efrika's body which I was holding and hold her head. It is a fellow who does not have a mood or a haze so much as we meet again.
"By the way the direction of the tournament is going well? Is it possible for Venu to win?" Efrika
"Hmm? Yes, she is going to win the tournament without any problems" Craft
Did you feel relieved to hear these words Efrika, as she is caressing my chest cautiously.
"It's good, I don't doubt Venusera, but I am a little worried..." Efrika
"Well, it is rude. If it's about skill, you don't need to worry about that" Craft
"Oh, you were in such a place? You have a bad taste for eavesdropping" Efrika
Efrika′s words were turned to Venu who seems to have returned from the toilet. It looked like she was shining with a bright red face from the corner of the corridor.
"I'm not eavesdropping! And if you escape, please come and see us sooner!" Venu
"......Nii-san. You haven't done anything while I wasn't there last night? Venu is too honest and scary" Efrika
"It's Venusera!! Mukiiiii! This 301 points!" Venu
"Haaaaaaa? Say it again at this time! Come on!" Efrika
Even though we were just reunited, they could fight without getting tired.
"Craft-dono, are you okay?" Musashi
"Nihihi, don't fight!" Craft
"Leave it alone. Maybe this is the way they are" Kaitos
By releasing Efrika and Musashi, the pressure on Venu decreased. She probably will demonstrate us more of her strength than the match just before.
"Huhh! I will soon have my second round match, I hope everyone is watching my big success in the audience seats! I will show you my strength!" Venu
Pleasantly, Venu is running away to the match area without wielding around here. Efrika still made a somewhat insignificant face, but she was disappointed and sighs, whether she was poisoned inside watching behind Venu, she shrugged her shoulders.
"Haa......well good. It seems that there is no other choice but to leave it to Venusera and we will go to cheer, but where are Kaitos and Orochi?" Efrika
"They left me and went to get a seat. Orochi that fellow, grew up and clearly she hated myself and is hooked on Kaitos" Craft
"Growth? How did Orochi grew up?" Efrika
I see, these two people have not met the big Orochi yet.
"You will be amazed if you see her, Efrika, because the size of her poncho is perfect" Craft
"The size is perfect, she has become quite large......huhuu" Efrika
Efrika shows a smile that looks glorious after seeing something interesting.
"Can you find them anyway, Kaitos and the others were worried about you too?" Craft
Regarding the growth of Orochi, let's think about it after everything resolved. The priority to be given now is to see Venu's tournament victory and to save Bunna. It is exhausted to it.
"Mumumumu, I haven't been pampered yet!" Musashi
"I understood. I will spoil you later" Craft
After putting my hand on Musashi′s head, I will proceed to the direction leading to the audience seat.
"First of all, lets go cheering, let's do our best with all we can!" Craft
For Venu, I could say enough for that with confidence. On the contrary, I feel uneasy if it is a tendon rhythm, but......no problem. Let's just enjoy Venu's success now. From the conclusion, it can be said that the one anxiety I felt was frustration. The theme of the second round match is to hit a lot of cat rabbits that run around inside the match area with bullets stuffed with paint. A total of more than ten cat rabbits were quick to escape, and everyone seemed to anticipate the struggles of contestants, but Venu victory was with a double score than her opponent and she proceeded to the semi-finals. The theme of the semi-final is long-distance shooting while being blindfolded. The content itself is the same as the balloon shooting done by Venu in the first round but the difficulty degree is expanded many times by adding blindfolds. But as with the first battle, it was too simple. Venu was laughing cheerfully, as it was rather unfair due to the difference in color of the balloons. Thus Venu kept betraying the expectations of the audience and wonderfully went to the finals.
“Oooohoohoohoohoo! Have some hot black tea, Efrika!” Venu
“Gumemee......! Don't get in tune!” Efrika
Finally, in the final, the only ones left in this waiting room is Venu and us and her opponent, Nois. As usual she with her arms folded in the corner of the room......I feel like she is staring at Efrika and especially me. Did I do anything to offend her?
"Huu, this dress is still the most comfortable. It's regrettable that I have no sword" Musashi
Yes Yes, Efrika and Musashi too......their original dresses are more fitting. In particular, Efrika is more attractive now as she has her hair length restored by magic.
"I was also lonely without Danthes......hey Venu, here is a cup of tea" Craft
I use the boiling water from the stove in the waiting room and pour some tea in a cup. When Venu receives it happily, she carries it elegantly and carries it to her mouth.
"Hmm, it's delicious. You′re good at making tea, Craft" Venu
"Well, most things in the housework are done by Zenan" Craft
I pour tea into some cups and hand them out in order to everyone. Of course, Efrika who was trying to make things she wanted was well prepared to Orochi.
"Naahaahaahaa! Thank you Sensei! Achichii!" Meri
"Hey, Orochi. You can have it too" Craft
"Kyashaa! Orochi doesn't need such a thing" Orochi
While each one receives tea, only Orochi refuses. Because of my vigilance, she has never been able to absorb magic since then. That's why she was annoyed, Orochi strained sweets and was leaking a sigh every time.
"But Orochi-dono. Even though you′re still like a child, you′re getting bigger and bigger" Musashi
"Shaa, I'm not a child. You see, I have big tits" Orochi
Orochi who shakes her breasts which pushes up the poncho and claims her size. Ugh, after all they look great. If the age rises a little more, I am afraid that she will become no enemy. My preference is a look like Kaitos has, so she will probably similar......
"Well, we have one tea cup left" Craft
It's a shame to throw it away......I will pass this cup to her.
"Hey, Nois! I have some tea left, do you want it?" Craft
"Tea......?" Nois
Nois who tilts her head stares at the tea on the table in front of her. She doesn't seem to know why tea was offered to herself.
"Cr, Craft! Why don't you send salt to the enemy!" Kaitos
"That's not good. She looks like a decent guy unlike the rest" Craft
Although she is an opponent who will fight Venu in the final match soon, she is someone who hasn't discriminated against Venu. Even if it is only one cup of tea, there is no punishment.
"......This is for me?" Nois
"Ah, right......do you hate black tea?" Craft
"No, because it's red, I love black tea" Nois
Saying so, Nois carries the cup to her mouth for a long time. Does she like red? Ah, that's why she has been staring at me and Efrika a while ago.
"Craft is kind. Nois, how is the taste?" Venu
"Delicious. The house's butler tea isn't as good than this tea" Nois
"Oohohohoho! Of course! It was made by my Craft!" Venu
"...My? This person, the princess's......thing?" Nois
Nois puts the cup away and points to me and then asks Venu.
"Yes. Craft can't live without me, we're in love!" Venu
"Wait Venuseral! Nii-san belongs to everyone!" Efrika
"Yes, yes! You're not alone!" Musashi
"Again, he isn't only yours. Beee!" Kaitos
Sure enough, everyone answered in a selfish manner......and Meri hit my back from behind.
"Hey, Craft-sensei! I thought of something! Because it is either Venu or Nois who will win the tournament, you can ask for the sacred stone now?" Meri
"...Oh, there was that way!" Craft
I don't want Venu to lose, but it is worth asking for insurance. That way we don't have to worry about wasting it.
"Wait, Craft. Even if we get the sacred stone, it is meaningless if I don't withdraw the base of Baretoria. In the end, I have to win the tournament" Venu
"Yes, we can't just get the sacred stone. It's a must for Venu's victory" Kaitos
That's what Kaitos say. I thought it was a good idea, but I guess it's no good.
"It's fine. I only see the tournament in my eyes" Venu
"Venu! I entrusted the future of Bunna to you!" Meri
"It's Venuseral! Yes, I'm sure to fulfill the mission! Oohohohoho!" Venu
Even before the finals, Venu laughs cheerfully. She really want to be overwhelmed by tension and pressure......is she trying to keep us worried.
"Sacred Stone? Base? What’s that?" Nois
Nois, who has been out of the talk for a long time, asks me while pulling my arm. Oops. It's strange that we suddenly got excited with us alone.
"The sacred stone is the necklace of the tournament prizes. And the base is a military base under construction near the border of Baretoria and Bunna" Craft
"Necklace......? Do you want that?" Nois
"Well, there is a deep situation......" Craft
"......Sorry, red person. I want that necklace" Nois
As if biting something, Nois puts her hand on her jaw. what? Is she thinking?
"I don't need the necklace. If I win, I'll give it to you" Nois
"Haa? NoNoNo, you forgot the previous story!" Craft
"But I really don't need it" Nois
We keep pace with Nois, who shakes her head. That……? Well, at this point in time, the sacred stone is as good as it gets.
"I feel happy, but there's no point in getting only the sacred stone" Craft
"Why?" Nois
"Ah...... that's" Craft
I think it cant be helped to talk about our circumstances to Nois, but it's a topic I've extracted from here. Even if I leave it out and Nois breaks down, the aftertaste is bad......I will explain firmly. I will briefly talk about the battle that is taking place in Bunna and Baretoria. Nois seemed to be surprised at the outrageous story, but listened quietly without pinching her mouth until the end. And as soon as I finished the explanation......she suddenly uttered these words.
"There is no problem. I can do it somehow" Nois
"Eh? Well......what about the base of Barretria?" Craft
"Yes. I order. And then, the base......withdraw" Nois
Yes? Even Venu, who is a princess of her own country, is trying to solve it by using the privilege of victory. How can Nois easily solve it like that?
"Ma, maybe! Will you use the winning privilege for us?" Craft
"No. The privilege is used to dye the whole of Baretoria......red......muhuuu" Nois
Nois who talks about her ambition, seems awful when you listen to it. If she doesn't use the privileges, will Nois do it personally......
"Nois-san! Are you going to ask your father directly?" Venu
"Yes, I will do that......" Nois
"What is it Venu? Nois's father is a big name?" Craft
It's just a noble......but it looks like this is not a humble person.
"Her full name is Nois Will Granbanil. Currently, the only daughter of Marshal Granbanil, the chief of the Baretorian Army......that's her" Venu
"The Marshal's daughter? Ah, no wonder you're going to win the tournament......" Craft
Starting with Efrika, everyone in this place is convinced. If she is the Marshal's daughter, the treatment of firearms would be the best. This is truly a formidable opponent.
"But Nois. Despite the wishes of a daughter, I think it will not go so easily" Craft
"Papa, usually is scared. He hate Bunna, he is just always saying bad things" Nois
"Ugh, Bunna is a good country! Food is also delicious!" Meri
"By the way, I might not like Bunna, either. The countryside is green......not red" Nois
"Ueeeee? That!!" Meri
Nois stabbed a knife into Meri′s words and she knocked Meri out.
"But, if I say help by all means. Papa will accept this request" Nois
"It's kind of bad. It's a form that I got caught up in the middle of the talk......" Craft
It is scary that the opponent who competes in the final with Venu is the daughter of Baretorian′s army Marshal and there is no interest in the necklace with the sacred stone......and things go well enough.
"I don't mind. But, one thing, please" Nois
"Request, what? Rather, here is what you are asking......" Craft
"If I win, I will hand over the necklace. I will persuade my dad, but I want something in exchange" Nois
Something in exchange? Well, it is because I feel awkward not to pay the price to get to cooperate in order to save one country. If she wants something, she can concede it to a certain extent.
"I don't mind, Nois-san. As I said earlier, I cant afford to lose" Venu
"Yes, buii" Nois
Hearing the approval of Venu, Nois jumps happily and smiles. What? What does she want so much......?
"Then, if I win......" Nois
"Yes, whatever you want to have" Venz
"I will take, this red man" Nois
"""""Haaaaaaa?""""" Everyone
The shouts of my five wives overlap and echo beautifully. That's also so because, Nois suddenly hugged me at my waist.
"O, hey hey? what kind of joke is that......?" Craft
I was suddenly hugged and I had no choice but to be puzzled.
"Muhuu, red......very red......nhunhu" Nois
Nois doesn't care about my figure and rubs her face on my chest.
"I like red, I want red, to be my pet" Nois
"No, Nois-san! You are still a fine woman of the Grandbanil family, right? I'm going to mourn your father, Marshal Grandbanil! Shameless!" Venu
"Alright. Papa is sweet to me" Nois
Nois laughs with a grin on her face while burying it in my chest, whether it is conviction behavior.
"Hu, Huhuhuhuhuu......Nii-san, step aside. Because I curse that girl from now on" Efrika
"No, Efrika-dono. I will burn her up here" Musashi
"Naahaahaahaa! What about smashing her into pieces and feed her to the fishes?" Meri
"I cant forgive her! I will devour her wholly......!" Kaitos
Emitting an dark black aura, Efrika and the others approach here with an raged expression. I'm sorry. I'm not going to be a victim!
"Everyone, don't lose your composure. Ladies, you should always try to act graceful and dignified.Yes, lets deal with it calmly" Craft
"Shaa? Hey hey, what is going on?" Orochi
The thing that Venu has in her hand while shaking is a grenade if there isn't anything wrong with my eyes. Yeah, I wonder if you can slowly release your fingers from the pin, Venu.
"*Giggling* Then......I'm looking forward to the final" Nois
I wonder if Nois has also felt the crisis or my pace and when she leaves from my side, she moves in nimble steps. Then she opened the door to the hallway and ran away in no time.
"Wh, Wh, What is this! What is that girl! Mukiiii!" Venu
"Venusera, never lose! Beat her black and blue!!" Efrika
"Kyo-everyone- iyoa. Sha" Orochi
"Ev, Everyone calm down. You don't need to take it personally" Craft
Just because she liked red things, there is no love and so on. It's about making you look like this......
"What, Craft. What if someone of us were to do the same to a man?" Venu
"Ha? I'm going to kill that man after letting him experiencing all sorts of pain of this world" Craft
"See! We felt the same way!" Venu
What is it? Well, that's right. How careless am I......!
"Sorry. I will keep my guard a little more from now on" Craft
"Naturally. I don't know where the pests that aim for Nii-san are hidden" Efrika
"It is good that the lateral chamber is increased, but it is useless if it is not a person who I admit" Musashi
The words are still too distant for me who is a virgin.
"Anyway, I can't lose by any means! Nois-san is a strong enemy, but I cant lose if I'm in perfect condition!" Venu
And, the announcement flows at the moment Venu gets enthusiasm. It seems that the final match will start soon.
"Ah, I'm going. To settle everything......I will win the tournament" Venu
We leave the waiting room and went into the corridor. Here we can only support Venu from the audience seats. It is a very toothy thing, but it may be necessary to trust and watch over Venu.
"Then Venu. Good luck with no regrets" Craft
"Yes. If I win the tournament, please praise me afterwards" Venu
With a smile, Venu runs through the corridor leading to the match field. This is the last match, whether we cry or laugh.
"Win...... Venu" Craft
We rushed to the audience seats so that we don't miss the brave figure of Venu. At the top of the stairs where light from the outside enters, there was an unrivaled amount of hot air swirling and it had an unusual appearance of admiration mixed with wilderness.
"Defeat the ash-haired princess!" Spectator 1
"The Little Red Riding Hood of the Marshal vs the ash-haired princess, this is a really interesting match" Spectator 2
"Granbanil's daughter is a pretty talented person, but she is going to be bashed by the ash-haired princess......I'm expecting it" Spectator 3
"What are you saying! Are you going to cheer for the ash-haired princess?" Spectator 4
It seems that people who started to recognize Venu are arguing against those who refuse to recognize her. It's a good trend. In this way, it is enough that just a little more friends will be added.
"Nii-san, Venu came in from the entrance."
Prompted by Efrika′s voice standing besides me, I dropped my eyes to the match field. There, Venu and Nois......and why was there Prinella.
"Ah, the first princess, Prinella-sama! What a beautiful blonde hair......!" Spectator 5
"It's different from her sister's ashed hair" Spectator 6
Prinella's blonde seems to be so attractive that the crowds who have been so noisy until now stop arguing and see. From my point of view, Venu's hair looks more attractive......
"Uuu, it's also painful that we can only pray" Efrika
"But I think that prayer will surely be the most powerful thing for Venu" Craft
When I look down, Venu smiles toward us with a smile. This way it shows she care about us even if we are so far away. If we have a sunken face, then this fellow's morale will fall. I just have to avoid it.
"Cough. Everyone, I am the first princess, Prinella Printo Baretoria" Prinella
After moving to the center of the match field, Prinellula opens her mouth with a microphone.
"Thank you for watching Baretorian′s glorious shooting tournament till the finals today. You'll be happy with the heated battle. Ah, especially, the fight between these two contestants" Prinella
Apparently she will be the referee of this final......or will be working in the commentary.
"Well then, let me introduce you to the contestants who made it to the final. On this side we have the daughter of Marshal Grandbanil, and this is the first time she has participated in this tournament, Nois Will Granbanil!" Prinella
"Hello" Nois
Nois sends a peace sign to the audience according to the introduction. No, no matter how negative I think her eyes are looking at me......?
"Next, Nhuhuu. We have my younger sister who fought me in last year′s final......Venusera, Lloyd Dibair! Ah well well. Her name has changed since she got married recently" Prinella
"Th, thank you!" Venu
In contrast to Nois, Venu shows the audience a traced bow. The audience's reaction to that attitude was beautifully divided into two.
"Good luck! Try your best in the finals too!" Spectator 1
"You will lose unsightly! Baretoria's shame!" Spectator 2
"Where is the idiot prince of Dibair?" Spectator 3
"But he helped to build a friendly relationship with Dibair......it’s complicated" Spectator 4
For some reason I feel like they're spreading to me, but I don't care about it.
"Well, you don't show a dirty face? It's better compared to the dead fish-like face from last year's tournament, but if you get too tense you will lose your cute face" Prinella
"It, it's noisy! Please explain the rules soon!" Venu
"What do you care about? Well......good" Prinella
With the microphone, Prinella finally talks about the final match in a sulky manner.
"The content of the final is the same as last year, but this time with a special rule......a flying magic stone that is flying around the match field endlessly. It's difficult" Prinella
And, as soon as Prinella finished talking, five sparkling objects came into the stadium. Red, purple, yellow, white, black. They are flying around the match field as Prinella said......but I can barely follow their speed with my eyes even if I'm watching from above.
"You can take a distance and get a sniper or get close and shoot with a shotgun. There is no limit on guns, so if you use your favorite gun and you break three targets first, you'll win" Prinella
"......It's pretty fast. With a sniper it seems to be difficult" Venu
"Red, I want......but I have to shoot, I lose" Nois
Venu is sweating on her forehead because of the tough match content. On the other hand, Nois wears a red hood with an calm expression. Ah, that's why she has the nickname red riding hood......
"Of course, but be careful not to shoot the opponent because it's a foul, so start as soon as your heart is ready, alright?" Prinella
Venu and Nois are powerfully asked by Prinella's question. Seeming satisfied with that, Prinella takes a breath when she raises her hand.
"Suuu......let's get started! Go into position, go......!" Prinella
As soon as the bark has begun, both pull out a gun from their dresses and hold it. Nois took out a scoped sniper. Venu decided to use a large caliber handgun. The two of them are aiming at another target so that they each have their backs.
"Bang!!"
At the moment the hand of Prinella is shook down, they both pull the trigger. Are both bullets real? The question is whether or not they will hot......
"Haai, Venusera destroyed the purple target. Nois destroyed the black target" Prinella
Gun voice and plosive sound are almost simultaneous. Even though I was following Venu, I was working hard to grasp the color of both destroyed targets......I am not the winner of last year's tournament.
"Hm, Nois destroyed the white target. The yellow target is destroyed by Venuseral" Prinella
While I′m thinking about it, the match has progressed to one remaining target. It's not early. I can only hear a few gunshots......
"I won't let you take the remaining one!" Venu
"That's my line. Red, absolutely, won't hand over" Nois
Venu had already switched to another gun before long. Apparently this time she uses a shotgun to aim at the red target...but there, Nois also takes out another gun and prepares it.
"Uu!" Venu
For a moment Venu seemed to pull the trigger earlier, but a bullet shot by Nois bursts at the foot of Venu just before. She wasn't hit, but it seems that some broken ground fragments hit Venu′s feet. That's why I thought that she had lost her balance.
"Regret, no thought" Nois
And Nois shoots a bullet at the red target so as not to miss that great opportunity. Light blue bullet......is it a magic gun? Danger, if this remaining one is hit by Nois......
"I won't let you!" Venu
Venu who bears the pain shoot with the shotgun. Although the timing didn't match, the red target wasn't hit, but instead, the shot collides with the magic bullet of Nois and pops up. But Nois smiled with joy, though her bullet was shot down.
"Yes, this is my victory" Nois
"Th, This is?" Venu
The magic bullet, which should have been played in the air, becomes a grain of faucet and a large amount of water pours around Venu. That bullet, was it filled with water magic!
"At this level! This me......kyaa!" Venu
Venu tries to leave the place, but she fall on the muddy ground with a lot of water. Hey, this is dangerous!
"Venu!" Craft
When I instinctively scream, explosive cheers come from the audience. Due to the overwhelming disadvantage of Venu, the enthusiasm of the audience seems to be at the climax.
"But, now, lost sight, of Red......" Nois
Nois looks around restlessly in the surrounding. Venu will lose if Nois can find the target as it is.
"Ah, there" Nois
Damn, fast. It seems that the buzzing and fleeing target have been captured. Nois grabbed her gun in the same way as before and pulled the trigger without saying.
"Wait! I'm not finished yet!" Venu
Just before the light blue bullet bursts to the target, a red-brown bullet flying from the side blocks the hit. This bullet is......Virgil′s magic bullet!
"You are not the only one who can use a magic gun!" Venu
Venu is holding a gun as she drags her muddy body up when she fell. Her beautiful head was splashed with mud and the greyish blonde hair lost more and more of its brilliance......which draws the attention of the audience.
"Gyahahaha, see! Ash-haired princess is covered in mud!" Spectator 1
"Puu, look good! Good for the miserable ash-haired princess!" Spectator 2
Mindless words are shouted at Venu like rain. However, Venu doesn't mind such a thing and moves her muddy body by jumping.
"This time, I will remove it" Nois
"I won't let you!" Venu
Nois shoots a bullet again, but it is also shot down by Venu's bullet. Over and over again, every time Nois shoots a bullet, Venu blocks the distance from the target perfectly. Nois expression is so red that the heart of every viewer won't miss it.
"That's depressing. Well, with this, I put an end to it!" Nois
Nois, having set up the gun in both hands, fired two bullets at once. This would make it impossible for Venu to shoot the bullets down......everyone in the audience thought so.
"Sorry, it's already within Venu′s range" Craft
Virgil′s gun barrel which Venu's has, glows and a purple lightning bullet is released. Magic guns cant be used to emphasize control. However, as the distance to the target gets closer, the precise control becomes unnecessary. So you can get the best out of it.
"That's it!" Venu
A gigantic thunderbolt is released from Virgil held with both hands. It quickly swallowed Nois's light blue magic bullets and it bursted into the red target.
"Haa, haa......!" Venu
Quietness envelops the vast colosseum. Everybody was ready to make a decision in this short period of time......but they couldn't hide the confusion in reality that they never wanted to admit. And Prinella was the first to open her mouth so as to break such silence.
"Ahaa, Venusera destroys the red target. Winner is Venuseral!" Prinella
Starting from that declaration, the venue will begin to cheer as if it exploded in an instant. One applauded and shed tears to bless Venu. Some also clap for Nois and continue to overthrow the winner Venu. A scene where the angry number and the voice of joy are mixed. Under the circumstances, Venu, who decided on the victory, just stood still in the middle of the match field.
"I'm sorry Nois. It's regrettable" Venu
"Muu, annoying. But next year, I will win" Noa
"Oh yeah. You got the seed right, I hope you will try your best to win like Venusera. And with that, Venusera......congratulation! After all, you are my sister" Prinella
Prinella talks to Venu with a microphone in one hand. The desire is fulfilled, and she might be happy, too.
"Have you decided what to do with your winning prize? Speaking to mothers, what you like......" Prinella
"Bunna......I have to save Bunna.....so please withdraw the military base near the border and give me the necklace with the sacred stone......" Venu
Not caring for her muddy body, Venu wishes for the peace with Bunna. I wondered what the story was like, or did I breathe in Venu's desperate mind......the audience seemed to watch over the situation again quietly.
"Venusera......still saying something like that? You won, you are the one who won, use your privileges for yourself! If not, then again" Prinella
"I know! Still, my dear friends are in trouble! Bunna might be destroyed because of Baretoria......I'm not supposed to be able to overlook that!" Venu
At this point, the audience probably understood the general circumstances. Venu is trying to withdraw the military base to avoid fighting with Bunna. Even if they didn't know the details, once they understood it, they would have decided what action to take.
"Foolish! I think you did not thinking about the benefits of the shooting competition!" Spectator 1
"A reward for Bunna people? Withdrawal of a base? Don't be foolish!" Spectator 2
"Maybe she has concluded with Bunna......she abandoned Baretoria" Spectator 3
"Possible. Doesn't she has any pride as a Baretorian at all?" Spectator 4
Spectators make up a story that doesn't exist and gradually heat up. Even those who have supported Venu up to this point have now dropped Venu.
"Just a little! We are going to hold the award ceremony......ah!" Prinella
"......Kyaaa!" Venu
A drink bottle was thrown from the audience seat and hit Venu's head directly. It still contained something......black liquid was dripping down from Venu′s whole body.
"Foolish! This traitor! The dirty blonde will never show up again!" Spectator 1
"This fellow is in the first place a half! It's wrong to have her participate in this tournament!" Spectator 2
"Eh? That dirty blonde was a half? Uwaa......" Spectator 3
"A princess who is only a half has participated in this historic tournament and won......" Spectator 4
Spectators start throwing things on the match field one after another.
"Hey, stop it! Why is this......!" Prinella
Prinella next to Venu doesn't seem to be the target, but she is shaking her hands hard to stop the audience in order to protect Venu. However, the spectators who heat up just don't listen.
"Cancel the winner! It is invalid! Remove the ash-haired princess!" Spectator 1
"The ash-haired princess ruined the honor of Baretoria! Get out of the historic colosseum!" Spectator 2
The spectators who had been with me on Venu′s side until now have now been attacking Venu as an enemy. Just half. Hair color has changed a little bit! Just because of that......such a sad thing is happening here.
"Eei! I want to say a word to these people!" Efrika
"Shaa......humans, after all, ushaa" Orochi
"I'm not going to forgive anyone who makes a fool of Venu now!" Kaitos
"Yes, I agree. Let's go, everyone!" Craft
I jump from the audience seats to the match field as I push over the spectators sitting in front of me. Of course, the destination is next to Venu. As fast as a second, I was beside her──
"Venu! Are you okay?" Craft
I rushed with all my strength and I stand in front of Venu as she gets out of the rain of rubbish.......Ah, she's getting dirty like this. Her beautiful hair is a total mess.
"Cr, Craft? Why are you here......? You're going to get dirty!" Venu
"It's okay. You can wipe your face with this" Craft
That being said, when I hand over the handkerchief, the audiences begin to make noises against me this time.
"Who is this guy? Is it the rumored prince!" Spectator 1
"He seduced the ash-haired princess, right? What a sneaky man!" Spectator 2
"What a despicable man this beast is! He is still a prince of a country!" Spectator 3
Oh, I'm going to tell you. I don't care what you say to me.
"Mou, Nii-san! Don't go alone!" Efrika
"Shaaa! Quickly Quickly!" Orochi
"When you go, we will be with you!" Musashi
"Craft. I'm about to get really angry......" Kaitos
Then Efrika, Orochi and Musashi holding Kaitos jumped down. Lastly, Meri followed and now we're all exposed to the crowd.
"Uwaa, that brown skin....someone from Bunna. Gross......" Spectator 1
"Don't let the barbarians contaminate a sacred event!" Spectator 2
Naturally, the anger of the spectators did not settle and things were thrown at a rapid pace. That's what happened to Venu, who won such a fierce battle......these people......no matter how much Venu forgives, it is my limit of patience already.
"Sh, I′m on the verge of......" Craft
I let the magic of my anger squeak from my body and I became mad......at that time.
"Silent! Everyone is such a disgrace!" ???
Suddenly, a loud roar is heard in the colosseum with a howling sound. The lord of the voice is a person who is unexpected for us.......
"Ol......Older sister!?" Venu
"I don't want to listen to everyone's complain! This girl is the winner of the tournament! It's my sister, Venuseral! It's good to give compliments a little!" Prinella
The only thing we could do was to wait and see the audience hoarseness in the same way as we did, of course, Prinella screamed loudly as if she had cut her eyebrows.
"Sorry I used to hate this girl in the past! In the castle it was dark, as Venu was favored by our grandmother and learned how to use a gun!" Prinella
"He, hey? Pripri......?" Craft
"But last year, when I competed in the final with her, I was so happy! This girl loves shooting like me! So I tried to introduce her to everyone properly! Because of her dirty blonde hair, this child was bullied! Mukiiiiii!" Prinella
"Eh? What was that......?" Venu
The treatment that Venu received from Prinella in the previous tournament. The hood that hid the hair was removed and it is introduced that this girl is Prinella′s fledged sister though it is a child with dirty blonde hair......it certainly might have seemed to be a bad deal if it is seen from Venu's viewpoint. But I'm sure there was no offense from Prinella. The fact that Venu's blond hair seems dirty for Baretorian......therefore, it is a point that it has blurted out by momentum.It is not thought that it becomes the ditch of the sister who is decisive──
"It's true that we Baretorian care about our hair! But if that makes my pretty sister stupid or hated! I, I!" Prinella
The scene from there is surely something that Venu cant forget for the rest of her life. In front of her eyes, she thought that her real elder sister hated her.
"I don't need this kind of hair!" Prinella
Prinella cut off her proud blonde hair from the base and the neck with a knife. The hair is as important to the Baretorians as life. As Venu was saying in the dungeon, cutting long hair that was extended was a great pain for Baretorian......
"A, Aa......older sister! That beautiful hair, why......?" Venu
"......Don't worry about it, Venusera! My hair is going to grow to the same length someday" Prinella
The falling hair that is flying in the wind isn't looked at and Prinella puts her hand on Venu's head.
"I'm sorry at that time. It is late, but......I wanted to apologize all the time" Prinella
"U, Ueee, older sister sorry......" Venu
Gently, Venu clinging to Prinella′s dress. Prinella gently embraces Venu just to say that it doesn't matter if she gets muddy.
"Nii-san......it’s bad, I'm almost crying" Efrika
"I'm sorry because I'm no longer doing......zubiiii"
"Gre-at Ve-nu-se-ra......! It's been a long timeeee!"
"Shaaa......stoppp" Orochi
"Good story. Great, passion. *Clapping*"
Everyone in this place including me was touched by the beautiful bond of these sisters. And the impression seems to have been gradually spreading to the audience seat full of bad faith and hostility until a while ago......
"The first princess has her hair......can you say anything?" Spectator 1
"Sacrificing her national treasure graded hair for that ash-haired......no, she tried to protect her sister" Spectator 2
"I, I say it's because of it! The ash-haired princess turns into a great thing!" Spectator 3
"But what does that say? Even if the hair was ugly, Venusera-sama did fight well and won the championship. And for other countries......she's the pride of Baretoria!" Spectator 4
"It's not for herself but for people......I feel ashamed of myself" Spectator 5
In the midst of confusion......one or more seats start sending warm applause to Venu. Some of them went away from the spectator seat without getting angry, but the majority of the spectators seemed to honor Venu's struggle and Prinella's literally persuasive persuasion.
"Hiiku, Craft, I......I did it!" Venu
"Yes. Well done Venu, you′re so attractive that I fall in love with you again" Craft
Leaving Prinella′s side, this time Venu jumps into my chest.
My sister-in-law was dissatisfied, but she cant do anything.
"You have saved her, PriPri. You have become a good sister" Craft
"It's Prinella! Huh, I'm not admitting you yet!" Prinella
Prinella diverts her face in a glimpse of my gratitude. She's a pretty cute girl, though.
".....That person is more difficult than me" Prinella
"That person......?" Craft
"You will see it soon....." Prinella
Prinella stares behind me as if she has something to feel good about. At the end of the line of sight, there was a figure of a woman who didn't know when she had been there. A strange-looking woman dressed in an elegant black royal costume......a big cinion made of sparkling golden hair and blue eyes reminiscent of the sea. Hey, hey, no way......!
"......You come out at this timing" Prinella
"Whh, Wh,Wh, What!" Venu
Venu's eyes were colored in surprise. It is not impossible either. After all it's this person......
"Yo, your Majesty!" Nois
"Venusera, Nois. Both of you, it was a great fight" The Queen
Litilsier Zeronagar Baretoria. She is Venusera′s mother and the present Queen of Baretoria and she is approaching here while hiding her mouth with a beautifully designed fan.
"You were able to compete with each other, but as long as this is decided, no matter who says it, Venusera.........your victory will not fluctuate. This is what the Queen of Baretoria admits" The queen
"Mimi, its undeserved! Thank you very much!" Venu
"And prince of Dibair and his companions......well endured. From visiting this country to the present, my daughter and guards......let's apologize for the rudeness of the people instead" The queen
We are overwhelmed by the Queen of Baretoria who folds her fan and lowers her head. It was because I didn't think that the queen would apologize in such a place. And why does she know that we were having a hard time? Did she hear from Prinella?
"No, no! We got married without a greeting......" Venu
"Yeah! I can't give my cute little sister to something like this!" Prinella
"Alright Prinella. Don't expose any more demeanor in front of the people" The queen
The Queen of Baretoria stops the quarrel between the sisters and stared at my face.
"Prince of Dibair, Craft! Prinella isn't malice. This child is the country......it's an act of thinking about her younger sister, Venusera. Will you forgive her?" The queen
Tsk, after all, she is the queen. We have no veto power, as the queen apologized immediately under this vigilant eyesight. If we say here one of the complaints, it is equivalent to muddying the face of the Queen of Baretoria.
"I don't mind. I also have a sister......I can understand the feelings of Princess Prinella" Craft
"Thank you very much, prince Craft. I appreciate that consideration" The Queen
I would do the same thing if Leona got a marriage partner, and now I have no intention to blame Prinella. But I was forced to apologize in this way. Here too, I don't feel well unless I give it back.
"Your Majesty the Queen, its late......but a good opportunity. Here again, greetings" Craft
"Greeting......?" The queen
"Yes, this time, I receive Venusera, who is the second princess of Baretoria, as one of my wives. It's a slightly weird marriage for us......but could you forgive me?" Craft
I met with the eyes of the queen. She doesn't respond immediately during this time, even if I think in my heart that there isn't a decline.
"Is it......fine?" Craft
"......Yes, of course. I bless the marriage of you two in the name of the Queen of Baretoria" The queen
"Uguuu......I, don't want......I, Venusera......my cute Venusera!" Prinella
"Prinella" The queen
"Yes......I will bless you too" Prinella
Prinella said so after hearing the queen′s voice......at that moment.
"Hey! Be happy, second princess!" Spectator
Such cheering is thrown from one of the spectators who was watching the outcome quietly.
"She is no longer the second princess. If you call her, it's probably Venusera-samal!" Spectator 1
"Congratulations to your marriage, Venusera-sama!" Spectator 2
"But her partner is the prince of Dibair. Is this something she wants......?" Spectator 3
"What do you want! Anyway, congratulations on winning and marrying!" Spectator 4
The cheers gradually increased in momentum and eventually the whole audience surrounding us began to send whistle with applause. All that is the only one here.
"Fo, for me......? People, everyone?" Venu
It was dedicated to Venu. She, who had been hated as the ash-haired princess, has won the shooting tournament and is now turning into a popular figure.
"Wave your hand, Venu. You're finally recognized" Craft
"Ah......I, I was admitted......" Venu
Prompted by me, Venu is on her way to raise her dominant arm......but Venu draws her face. I wonder if her feet still aches, when I look into her face anxiously......
"Uh, whry......do mry tear keerp coming out......evern though, I’m harppy" Venu (TLC note: yup, not typo, just her tears stuck in the sentence)
It seemed to be an unnecessary concern. Even if it hurts, Venu won't mind now. I hope that the moment that never ceases......because it is caught by the whole body now.
"What What! You are going to celebrate by returning your hand!" Prinella
"Stop it now Prinella. Our role is over" The Queen
"Similarly, I, lost, leave" Nois
Did they read the air, as Prinella and the others turned around to the entrance of the stadium. Along the way......she remembered something and the queen stopped at a moment and walked to the vicinity of Venu who is waving at the audience.
"Venusera, the winner of this tournament. As a token of this......receive this" The queen
"This is......the necklace with the sacred stone!" Venu
"Normally, it is something to be given at the award ceremony......but aren't you in a hurry?" The queen
A golden necklace that could create a chaos is held in Venu′s hands. A silver glittering gem in the middle of the necklace is the sacred stone.
"You can treat this however you like. You can use it to save Bunna......" The queen
"I dont mind. I thought I would be opposed......" Venu
"......I didn't try to save my old friend so much that I cared about my position. Venusera, thanks to you, I......I didn't end up fighting with an important friend" The queen
The queen narrows her eyes softly as she looks back on her nostalgic memories.
"Emm that friend is......" Craft
"Venusera. I will withdraw the military base for you who wished to save Bunna. No matter how many oppositions there are, I'm the Queen of Baretoria and approved your wish" The queen
Without replying to my question, the queen affirmed Venu's wish. And as she catches up with Prinella, they leave as it is.
"Aahaa, mother had a Bunna friend. I'm so surprised!" Prinella
"Don't waste your mouth Prinella. Well, we'll be leaving now" The queen
"Bye-bye, Red person. I will see you again" Nois
When we saw the queen, Prinella and Nois leave from the entrance, only we were left here. I never dreamed that the queen of Baretoria would bless our marriage......but it seemed like they could even recognize Venu, which was really good.
"Don't Craft. It's all about greetings" Venu
"Ah, this finally solved all the problems" Craft
Disappointingly, we accept the pleasant applause. We saved Bunna and Venu was also recognized......now the problem that bothers us is gone.
"Craft! Lets cheer together!" Venu
"Hey hey, Nii-san me too!" Efrika
We were just floating. It might be that they were all relieved that everything was going well and that the honeymoon was about to end.
"Ouu! We're going now!" Craft
"Muu, I feel I'm forgetting something very important......wait a minute. After all!" Kaitos
"What are you talking about, Kaitos? Aren't you coming with us?" Craft
"Craft! That fellow is......where is Orochi?" Kaitos
"Ha? Orochi......what!" Craft
That's why we couldn't notice at this time.
"Kisshaaa! Venusera, congratulations on winning. It was good shaa" Orochi
"Ooohohohoho! If it is with my ability, it is an inevitable thing!" Venu
It's good, she is right next to us trembling with delight......
"......Sha, Venusera. Just for that necklace......can you show me that?" Orochi
A further crisis is imminent──
