Kuishinbo Elf - CH 69

The First Game

I think we waited for about 10 minutes? But it is finally time for Museru and my debut fight!

「Eltina-san, please bring your golem and come to the special ring.」

While being guided by the store clerk, we head towards the special ring.

… Crap! I’m getting really excited! Let’s do this, you! You idiot! Win! Museru!

I repeat the shouts that made no sense in my head. However, I can feel that my fighting spirit is full.

「Okay, now please raise your golem above the ring.」

I carefully brought Museru to the ring. My hands are shaking from the nervousness, but I was able to successfully send out Museru.

「Oou… You’re so cool! Museru!」

Unlike its master, Museru has a dignified appearance. Oo… so gallant, so dignified! As expected of my child!

「Umm, Eltina-san? Please leave your excitement for when the fight has ended, okay?」

「Aa… O-okay!」

Ahaha, and the surrounding laughed. Everyone is watching me with a pleasant smile. It seems that everyone… had experienced the same thing.

「Then I’ll start the battle? The victor will be determined by a ring out or a knockout. The time limit is three minute. In the situation that the time is up, the victor will be decided through a verdict.」

Un, the rule is the same as what Pururu had told me. The rings are for the most part a three meter wide square with a flat floor. We’re using a basic ring this time, but in larger scale tournaments there are other rings like wastelands, forests, oceans, deserts, ruins, and to finish it off, there even seems to be one where Zero Gravity is used for a fight in a weightless setting.

… It sounds fun!

「Contestant Eltina! Golem Museru! Rank SSS!」

There was a commotion in the spectators, now that I think about it Museru’s rank was high. My bad, I forgot. Teeheepero.

「Contestant Shia! Golem Essac! Rank S!」

Once again, there was a commotion. My gaze also fixed onto my opponent’s golem.

Its whole body is painted in red and pink… and its single eye is glowing with a *gupon*. And then, its master is an onee-sama that is hiding her face with a mask and clad her body in a red suit.

Although I can’t tell how her face looks like because of the mask, but she does have a blond short cut. She have a nice body that is well balanced. I think she’d look better if there wasn’t the mask.

「It’s Shia! Crimson Shia! Did she come back… ! ?」

… Is she someone famous? From my eyes, I can only see a cosplayer.

「Well then, game start!」

「… Show it to me! The power of an SSS ranked golem! !」

「Alright! Museru show it to them! Your power! !」

The game had started! The opponent’s golem has an axe… and a gun like object. On the other hand Museru… only has its fists.

「Go! Museru charge straight in and throw a right straight!」

Museru charge towards the opponent’s golem with a roller dash! And then, it throws a full power arm punch… it was dodged!

「That’s right, like that’d hit! Essac! Kick him!」

Essac had already sprung to motion before Shia even finished talking!

… Fast! What is this speed! ?

With a counter-like attack, Museru is kicked in the guts and blown away. It seems that he was able to avoid a ring-out.

「Are you alright! ? Museru!」

Museru, who was down on one knee stood back up. It seems that there were no problems.

「To be able to stand back up from that! ? Eei! Is a Rank SSS golem a monster! ?」

It seems that the kick just now was her sure-kill move. She had confidence in her victory. If it wasn’t Museru, it’d probably been over.

「The match truly begins now! Do your best! Museru!」

「Tsk! Essac! Restraint him! 」

Essac positions the gun that it was holding… and shoots it! There are projectile weapons! ? I didn’t hear hear about this~ ! !

「Uwawa! ?  Dodge it, Museru!」

My instruction was too late and Museru wasn’t able to dodge it! Most of the bullets had hit Museru!

「Did we do it! ?」

The smoke clears up and Museru’s figure shows up. And there stood… an uninjured Museru!

「What! What is this magical defense! ?」

Ah, those bullets… were magic bullets? In the list of abilities there wasn’t anything about magical defense so could it be a hidden ability? Either way, it is a chance! The opponent is shaken!

「Museru! Attack! ! Make them speechless!」

Museru once again charge towards Essac with a roller dash.

「! Tsk, Essac!」

Just by having its name called, Essac is already ready to intercept!

… How much of a mutual understanding do they have with each other! ? It’s not on the level of being on the same sync! ?

「Do your best! Museru! You can do it!」

Museru further raises its speed and Essac prepares to intercept!

The one to make the first move was Essac. Using the axe in its hand, Essac strikes at Museru! The axe hits Museru’s shoulder and dug into its shoulder.

「Aah! ? Museru! Stay strong! !」

However… Museru doesn’t care and enter an attack position. This is… ! !

「What… ! ? Essac… ! !」

However, it was too late. There are those that receive an attack without preparedness and those that receives an attack with determination. And of course Museru belongs to the latter. There is no need to be afraid!

Museru’s deadly fist strikes at Essac’s belly.

… But, it was dodged at the last moment.

No, it had hit slightly.

Even though the fist just scraped it… Essac was blown nearly out of the ring. Museru pulls out the axe that is stuck in its shoulder and throws it away.

「Kuu… However! I’ll show you that the difference in abilities doesn’t determine the outcome!」

Essac’s monocular eye shined with a *gupon*. On the other hand, Museru entered a position to use its arm punch.

The spectators that are watching held their breaths.

Museru moves and simply charges at Essac!

「That is a foolish move… ! But the resolution is good! Essac!」

Essac held out its left shoulder’s spikes and charges at Museru! In terms of speed, Museru is faster! It’ll work!

「Go! Museru!」

Museru drives an arm punch into Essac! The punch looks like it is getting sucked it…

「Wh… what! ?」

It ducked!

Essac dodged the punch with a duck! And then he counters with a shoulder tackle!

There was a dull sound and Museru was blown away… out of the ring.

「Aah~! Museru! Are you alright! ?」

I pick up the motionless Museru that was blown out of the ring. Its chest is slightly dented.

「Winner, Shia! Golem Essac!」

“Waaa!” The crowd lets out a cheer.

「We lost… Thanks for your hard work, Museru」

I pat Museru’s head while thanking him.

… Museru seems to be frustrated.

Sorry. If I gave you proper instructions, the result might’ve been different. I’m also frustrated…

「Yaa, well done. To be able to fight that Crimson Shia to this extent… how fearful.」

「Is she someone famous?」

Shia is currently being surrounded by the spectators and being congratulated. She looks happy.

「Shia Suisen, she was the champion of a previous Golem Masters the one prior to the latest one.」

「Haee~ she was someone that strong.」

I was able to push someone like that into a corner… isn’t it amazing! However, Museru still seems to be frustrated.

「Pururu… Museru’s mood isn’t getting better.」

「Nfufu… It’s definitely frustrated, that it wasn’t able to bring its master a victory as a present. 」

Museru…

I’m happy, to think that you were thinking that much about me!

I gave Museru a tight hug.

「So how was it? The game?」

「I’m frustrated that I lost … but it was really exciting! It’s definitely fun… ! !」

It’s frustrating to lose, but if I win, I’d be really happy! That’s probably why everyone seriously thinks about their golems and practice.

「Museru… we’ll win the next one!」

While hugging Museru, I told him our goal in order to encourage him. I’m itching to have another match…
