Chapter 245.5 Tino Shade wants to support them
Part 1
Magi, Knights, Martial Artists, and Treasure Hunters. The tournament, in which participation alone is considered a sign of being first class, was one of the most coveted events for those who enjoyed martial arts.
If by any chance you win the championship, your name will be known all over the world. Perhaps, your name will even be engraved in history books.
In this age when power is determined by powerful Relics produced by Treasure Shrines, strength shows your value, and the Supreme Martial Arts Festival was a good way to demonstrate this.
Tino’s first visit to Cleat was far more boisterous than I could have imagined.
Stalls that were lined up in a row, merchants that were calling out to the crowd. On the roofs were countless flags with swords, the symbol of the Cleat, and even though everything was outdoors, Tino felt the heat of the crowd, which made her tense up.
At this time of the year, Cleat will be filled with strong people. The companions of the contestants will probably also be there to cheer them on.
Even by just walking through the crowd, you could see a number of people who had absorbed no small amount of Mana Material. Among some of them, there were even people more powerful than Tino.
But the contestants in the tournament are even stronger than these people.
What is decided here is the pinnacle of martial arts――The War Emperor. The more you develop your skills, the more you advance in your path as a Hunter, the more you realize how big the world is.
Tino took a small breath and clenched her fists in order to pump her spirit up.
Tino will not be participating in this year’s Supreme Martial Arts Festival. She is not strong enough and has not received an offer to participate in the preliminary round. Nor has she accumulated enough achievements to be qualified.
But the fact that her esteemed Master~ and Onee-sama will be competing is tantamount to Tino competing.
Many members of 《First Step (Hajimari no Ashiato)》 are also coming to Cleat this year. It is because the benefits of the Clan Master’s honor will also fall on the Clan Members and in no small measure.
Tino was convinced.
Even the best of the best is equal to some “Dust (Trash)” under Master’s~ divine stratagem.
――During this year’s Supreme Martial Arts Festival, Master~ will become a legend.
Of course, Onee-sama and the others will also come close. However, they should not be able to beat Master~. In fact, Tino had seen Luke Onii-sam and Onee-sama killing each other in the name of mock battles many times, but I had never seen them in a mock battle with Master~.
It is probably because they know that they live in a different stage. Your fist is not the only means to fight, when you face Master~, the battle is already over.
The winner will be Master~. This is already a foregone conclusion.
The strongest Clan with the strongest Members. And Master~, the winner of the Supreme Martial Arts Festival, will no doubt be certified as Level 9 soon.
Tino will become a witness to his legend.
I don’t think Master~ needs help, but Tino is willing to do whatever it takes to help Master~ win.
From the day I learned that Master~ was going to participate in the Supreme Martial Arts Festival, I put more effort into my training. Although Onee-sama neglected me, I could not give up on supporting Master~. As his Kouhai, I can’t shame him when people see me.
I have withdrawn all of my modest savings for today. I used every means available to gather information on Master’s~ opponents who might potentially be a threat.
When he checked the information, Master’s~ reaction was one of disinterest, but this must have been a sign of confidence.
When I asked Master~ if there was anything I could do, Master told me to find some delicious snacks at a street vendor and bring them to him. That is also another sign of confidence.
The fact that I worked hard to visit all the stores in the Cleat to find some delicious pastries and bring them with me, but they were not on-sell, is another minor detail. I clearly didn’t mind at all.
I later heard that apparently, Master~ was making Aburaage. His divine stratagem is…… In full throttle.
And now Tino’s biggest goal is――To make Master~ the most popular contestant.
At the Supreme Martial Arts Festival, the popularity of a contestant is clearly displayed in the form of betting rates. The more people bet on Master~, the more popular he is――And this is revealed in the form of having lower rates.
Gambling is belittling, but I don’t care about gambling.
Onee-sama and the others made Master~, the Leader of the strongest Party. Then Tino will spread Master’s~ reputation all at once.
Of course, it is also possible to make a name for yourself by winning repeatedly without having any prior information.
However, Master~ said he would do his best this time. Then Tino will do all she can too.
Master~ never brag about his achievements, and his only weakness is his modesty. This is the best I can do as his Kouhai to inspire him.
This should be the first time that 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 will be in a martial arts competition. Therefore, Tino will make the Supreme Martial Arts Festival the best and brightest stage.
It will be a surprise. I am sure Master~ will be pleased.
Naturally, Tino is going to bet all her fortune on Master~. But that is not enough at all.
Tino looked around once more at Cleat which was crowded with powerful people and renewed her resolve.
“Look at me Master~………… I will make Master~ the best of all of them.” (Tino)
