183 – public trust system (4)

<Merchen’s Magical Knight> 「Act 8, Scene 1, Conflict Contest」.

Players can choose from several sports.

Depending on the choice, an event occurred, so I was able to play the event I wanted without fail.

Regardless of the scenario, I was able to play various mini-games with the theme of public trust sports to my heart’s content. I remember having quite a bit of fun.

Among them, the sport that can be seen as the flower of the public trust system was the arcball race.

If you go into the detailed rules, your head hurts, so let’s briefly explain what an arc ball race is.

It is a game in which a ball called ‘Ark Ball’ is passed with teammates, runs on a designated race path, and ranks are ranked in the order in which they reach the destination first.

The Arc Ball is a magic tool ball that has a lot of electric mana. It’s about the size of my fist.

The ball must be caught using a unique landing net that looks like a combination of a netless tennis racket and a dragonfly net, and contact was a foul.

Arcballs caught in a landing net are paralyzed for 2 minutes. This means that after 2 minutes, it recovers its function and runs away.

Therefore, passing between team members was essential to continuously paralyze the arc ball.

Amid the commotion, I moved my feet, blending in with the participants.

“Gazua!!”

“Get out of the way!”

“Whoaaa!”

Meanwhile, Lisetta Lionheart, a class A delinquent with orange ponytail hair, stepped forward. Because he has a strong body, he doesn’t get pushed back in physical fights.

at that time. In front of the large passageway leading out of the arena, magical energy gathered and became a ball that crackled and discharged electricity.

About the size of my fist. It was an arc ball.

“ruler!! An arc ball has been created!! Who is the leader?!!”

Whiik-!

As expected, a female student with light purple hair flew in at high speed and grabbed the arc ball with a float.

A multicolored cluster of stars coiled around her.

“Nihihi.”

Goddess stretching out one arm toward the students, spreading her index and middle fingers.

Dorothy pressed the witch hat on her head and smiled brightly. The Arc Ball that passed through her landing net was caught by the electric magic of the landing net that was crackling and flowing.

“As expected, is it as expected?! The celebrity of our Marchen Academy! Dorothy Hartnova is the first to snatch the arc ball!!”

As host Amy Holloway shouted, cheers from the students spread out. Especially the cheers of Dorothy fans.

On the other hand, several of the participants drool or clicked their tongues.

Of course I liked it. Dorothy Do whatever you want to do.

With Dorothy in the lead, the participants, including myself, passed through the aisles and went out into the open air.

Mana grains were shining for a very long time from the aisle, forming a track.

Because it was the rule of the arcball race to pass the track with the arcball and reach the destination.

Each time a team finishes, the mana pellets will move around and the track will be reconstructed to be shorter. In other words, the first track was the longest.

We ran down the track.

“You guys, come quickly!”

Dorothy couldn’t rush forward.

Anyway, even if I took the arc ball first, I had to pass it to my teammates within two minutes.

It’s against the rules for team members to make physical contact or use magic. It was a rule to prevent poisoning.

On the other hand, what if not among team members?

‘We can give each other.’

As long as it crosses the safe line. As long as it’s not blocking your path, you can attack your competitors with 1-star to 2-star magic. It’s going to be a mud fight.

oh Competitors are allowed to make physical contact as long as they do not hold each other, but this has nothing to do with the safe line.

anyway.

‘Team play is important.’

So everyone was looking at each other.

Dorothy’s team’s strategy was clear at a glance. To the point where I didn’t even need to use [psychological insight].

The fact that that guy took the lead at high speed means that his teammates will also get ahead.

If Dorothy’s team takes the arc ball and goes ahead until it passes the safe line that will come later, the race will inevitably flow in favor of that guy.

But these guys aren’t easygoing idiots. I’m already resentful that I lost my player to Dorothy, but should I let her do what she wants?

Dorothy belonged to a mixed team regardless of class because she was a minority class A. In other words, the rest of the team is not up to Dorothy’s level.

As expected, around the 3rd graders wearing the same outfit as Dorothy, the other contestants began to cling to each other and keep them in check. Dorothy is scary, but her teammates are easygoing.

That’s why it’s not good to start out in the beginning.

“Uh, what to do… ?”

Dorothy, who was flying with starlight magic, broke into a cold sweat while looking at her teammates who couldn’t do anything because of the many students’ checks. A look of trouble was evident.

Within.

profit-.

“Ugh!”

After two minutes, the magic power flowing through Dorothy’s landing net faded, and the arc ball regained its function and quickly ran away.

An arc ball that swiftly and swiftly crosses the air like a flying fly.

The arcball was busy moving back and forth along the track in a position that could be reached by simply jumping high.

Dorothy hurriedly chased after the arc ball.

“Oohhhhh!!”

“Yaaa!!”

As if they had been waiting, many students rushed at once towards the Arc Ball that had been freed from Dorothy.

Udangtangtang. Fierce battles unfolded, pushing or tackling each other. The engineering department students with excellent physical abilities were ahead, but the students who flew with the wind element were equally fast.

“Get out of the way, everyone!”

Whoops—!

Pillars of rock rise from the ground.

Lisetta Lionheart, a class A delinquent, climbed up a rock pillar and jumped off immediately.

She stepped on the heads of the male students and jumped up and down with her rock-attribute magic weapon, the bat Lokta, slung over her shoulder.

Any weapon is allowed as long as it is not wielded by other participants, but most of them did not use it because it was inconvenient to hold a landing net.

‘Because the important thing is quick action and mobility.’

In addition, complicated magic management is essential to handle magic weapons like Lokta. In an arc ball race where combat is not the main focus, it will only distract you, so it doesn’t suit you very well.

However, Lisetta seemed very uncomfortable when Lokta was not in her hands.

The pitifully trampled male students served as Lisetta’s driving force and fell backwards.

He was also one of the athletes in the Faculty of Magic. It is a fact that anyone can tell by looking at the body.

It was Lisetta who untied half of her orange gym uniform and made her assertive chest stand out.

Chijik. Arkball was caught by Lisetta’s landing net. He landed with his chin on the ground and ran down the track with his teammates laughing.

Participants groaned.

“It’s a piece of shit.”

I nodded my head in sympathy with Tristan Humphrey’s calm tone.

Our team was watching the scene while running leisurely.

This is because our strategy was to wait and see in the early stages when the competition was fierce, and then strike out after passing the safe line in the early and mid-half.

‘Operation is strategy.’

I naturally thought of giving Pierre Planche a shot. Yes, I only mess with one guy.

The sound of Amy relaying the progress of the arc ball race could be heard from here.

The current status of the race will be shown to the audience in real time through the messenger. It was also possible to observe the outdoor situation directly from the stadium due to the structure.

A huge map made of mana grains was spread out in the sky. There, each participant’s location will be taken like a GPS.

Soon, several participants ran and tried to surround the Lisetta team.

“Hey! Take it!”

“Huh!”

Lisetta, who went ahead, swung the landing net at the teammate like a tennis racket. Then the arc ball flew away like a baseball.

Lisetta’s teammates were surprised, but they succeeded in receiving the flying arc ball with a floating net. The magic power of lightning jumped up in an instant and grabbed the arc ball.

Deed deed——!

Lisetta pulled the rock under her feet. Pillars of rock rose in an oblique line toward the front. Students who had not been able to check it were embarrassed.

The team member immediately swung the landing net and threw an arc ball at Lisetta.

Lisetta tried to catch the arc ball, which was flying like a tennis ball, with a float.

chin.

Dorothy flew in at once and snatched the arc ball.

Lisetta frowned grimly and exclaimed annoyedly, “Ah?!”

“Nihihi! Catch it if you can… !”

Beep-.

“yes?”

As Dorothy hurriedly flew high, a beep sounded from the landing net.

“oh! Dorothy Hartnova player! Height limit violated! Aww, this! Too bad it’s a disqualification!”

“… Eh?”

Host Amy’s shout.

Due to the disqualification, Dorothy’s landing net was forcibly disabled. Immediately, the arc ball left her net.

“Ahh… !”

Understanding the situation, Dorothy just stared at the departing Arc Ball, trembling with a devastated expression. Too bad.

In the arc ball race, you must not go up to a certain height with your own strength or the ability of your teammates.

This is also a rule to prevent solo play, and it is a serious problem that harms the essential fun of arc ball races, so it is disqualified.

It seemed that Dorothy was so focused on protecting the arc ball that she couldn’t figure out the height limit.

I could see the 3rd year Magic Faculty students and Dorothy fans screaming in the crowd by now.

‘I need to comfort you after the race… .’

The escaping arcball was snatched by a male student. He giggled with his teammates and moved forward.

Of course, they also lost the arcball to another team soon after.

Then the scramble over the arc ball continues.

Suddenly, a light green line drawn on the ground, the safe line, began to appear. It was time to slowly prepare for battle.

As soon as the guys who had been scrambling ahead passed the safe line, they wielded 1st and 2nd star elemental magic at each other.

Since it was only 1 or 2 stars, there was no brutality like in Dalian. They are only used to keep each other in check.

For reference, it is against the law to wield magic or block students who have not crossed the safe line. So the guys in front were fighting only among themselves.

It’s coming soon. The safe line is getting closer.

Both Pierre Plance, the Clover Paladin, and Snow White, my mentee, were gradually approaching the safe line.

Except for Pierre, I exchanged glances with my teammates and nodded slightly as his teammates started to pull ahead.

He circulated the magic circuit inside his body. Gathering ice magic, he spread his right hand.

Even around me, I could feel the students’ magical energy gradually spreading out.

Soon, the moment the safe line is crossed.

“… … !”

“What… ?”

Whoa.

The students felt chills as the mighty magic burst out like an explosion.

The source is still only one. The strongest of the current contestants, except for Dorothy, who was disqualified.

Beige fine hair. A man with light green eyes.

It was Pierre Plance.

Fuaaa—

“aaagh!!”

“Kyaaak!!”

Water elemental magic erupted from Pierre and swirled with terrifying force. It was massive. Even though it was only a 1-star basic element magic, [Water Generation], many students were helplessly swept away.

At the same time, high waves rush along the track.

Its basic water elemental magic instantly devastated the surroundings.

    Getting your entire team disqualified for jumping too high is a crazy penalty. Made up sports are hard to enjoy.
