The experience of having survived as a bandit with a large number of men whispered to Gaff.
I don't know the details, but we need to solidify our position as soon as possible.

I've also heard rumors of internal strife in the center. I hope it's just a simple rumor, but I don't think a simple rumor can spread in the center.

That boss has taken over at an awkward time. Or is it that he is not qualified to lead an organization if he can't handle this kind of trouble?
Or, since there are several bosses with fox masks, it could be that this event is customary. For the foxmen who control other regions, the change of bosses in this region would be a good opportunity to increase their territory.

Either way, he has finally obtained a fox mask as a sign of his boss. There was no way he could just sit back and watch.

The former boss said he would let us watch the game at our leisure. Then let me show you.

Gaf Schoenfelder, once known as the King of Thieves.

'Let all the ...... people deep-fry the oil. That is the will of God.

Sola said, as if she were making a proclamation. But her eyes were completely fixed.















'Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, there's a powerful enemy we haven't seen yet, waiting for us! My sword is whispering that it wants to suck your blood!

'Your sword is made of wood, Luke.

'I am! At the Martial Emperor Festival! I'm moving on to a new stage! It's strong enough to cut with a sword, but it's even stronger when it's made of wood! The strongest swordsman will slay the world with a wooden sword!

'............mm'

A meaningless roar echoed through the room. With the Martial Emperor Festival coming up, the voltage of Luke and the others had risen to the maximum.

Apparently, they weren't satisfied with the bounty hunt with the lights.

But I didn't have time to worry about that right now. I folded my arms and stared at the tournament table.

'Hmmm ......'

'What's the matter? Cry-san.'

Sitri called out to me, looking up at me.

This is Krai Andrich, who is listed in the tournament.

Whether this Krai Andrich is me or another Krai Andrich, that is the question.

I've never heard of anyone with the same name, but there have been cases like that of Krahi Andrich. In the first place, I came to watch the game, not to compete.

Who would want to participate in a festival of brawn? I came to watch the game while eating popcorn with Tino and the others.

'If you're worried about the leader ...... game?'

'I'm sure you'll be fine, Cry! After all, the opponent is a fake!

Sitri encouraged Lucia, who seemed to be in a bad mood today. Apparently, to listen to their words...

'............ Huh? Do you think I'm going to be in the game?'

'What?'

'Huh?'

Lucia and Sitri stiffened. I laugh it all off.

'Ha-ha-ha-ha, you're not. There's no way I'm going.

You're going to the Emperor's Festival, that's ridiculous. I'm a man who's avoided a lot of trouble in the past, just in time to die.
I can't even fight. One on one is my weakest point. Well, I'm not good at many-to-one either.


Maybe the Krai Andrich you see here is the Krai Andrich who is not me.


'Hey, what are you saying--'

'The Krai Andrich you see here is not me, it's Krai Andrich.

In the first place, you have to apply to participate in the game. How can I be listed in the tournament list if I haven't done so?
I was indeed surprised for a moment to see my name on the list, but it was obvious when I took a deep breath and thought about it calmly.

'Ni, brother! It's the Martial Emperor Festival! It's not just a martial arts tournament!

He avoided Lucia with a smile, whose face was drawn up and her eyes were very strong.

'No, this is just a martial arts tournament.

'Brother! Are you serious! Brother!

'Tee-chan ......, you poor thing.'

Lucia shouted. Sitri mutters with an unusually sorry expression.
Hearing the commotion, Luke and the others burst in. And the night before the Emperor's Festival drew to a close.












The human village is really a noisy place.
The desert village was also noisy for those who were born and raised in the treasure house, but the noise in this city before the festival was far more than that.

No one in the crowd paid any attention to the small figure. It should have been there, but no one noticed it.

For the illusion of the fox that lives in the Inn of the Lost, scaring people is now proof of its existence.

I'm done playing in this town. I've tricked people into frying their food, and I've taken advantage of an unfamiliar human organization. I'll miss a lot of fried food, but if I ever want more, I'll just use the same trick again.

God's family is fickle. They only get involved when they want to.

So what should I do now? Should I go back to the lost inn or should I go back to the desert village? As she walked along humming a tune, a piece of paper on the ground suddenly caught her sister fox's eye.

It was the tournament list for tomorrow's Martial Emperor Festival.

Martial Emperor Festival. She didn't have much common sense in the human world, but she already knew most of the things from the conversations of the people in this region.
It's a festival to compete in military power. Even though the strongest one is obviously Mother, humans are really foolish to compete with other lowly races.



And then, as she casually glanced down at her sister fox, a familiar name suddenly came into her eyes.



'Krai Andrich vs. Krai Andrich......?


Krai Andrich.

That's a name that even my sister fox, who has no interest in human names, can't forget.

No--it is the natural enemy of the Lost Inn itself.

In the past, the phantom of the Inn of the Lost lost a battle of wits with the man and lost the tail, the main body of the treasure house.
The younger sister fox had a history with him, having been trapped in a clever trap and subjected to a no-attack rule.


That man doesn't have enough respect for his sister fox. The pride of the divine lineage will not allow him to remain defeated, but he is too dangerous for him to face alone. Or so he thought.


After checking the tournament table for a while, the sister fox muttered.

'............ Interesting.


A high level of intelligence was forming the next strategy.
I was about to leave, but this way, I can give that Kikikan-san a run for his money this time.

We can't attack him directly, but there are many ways to deceive people.
This time you can show that man what he sees. Let's trick him into getting down on his knees and combing his tail.


The strongest hunter. I'll tarnish your reputation in the human world.
