The victory was confirmed, so he got off the fighting table and went to the elephant beastman.

　A medical team was already surrounding the elephant beastman.

''That's right, from the humerus and clavicle to the second - no, even the fourth rib, it's been crushed.
'It looked like I was only lightly beaten...'
I mean, I can't believe this guy got hurt.

　The doctors in white coats tried to administer first aid.

　Beastmen don't get hurt that badly because their wounds heal quickly and they have a high level of defense to begin with. There are some beastmen who are rarely seriously injured, but they often give up on life easily and die.

　Therefore, the medical treatment in this country was lagging behind. There are not many users of healing magic. That was why many beastmen were on the verge of death when the demons attacked.


''Are you okay?　I'm sorry, it was too much.

Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! If you had used the sword in that case, I wouldn't be in this world right now.

　The elephant beastman told me so, but when I saw him pale, I still felt responsible.

'Heel!'

　I used recovery magic against the elephant beastman.

　If it's only a broken bone, I'll be able to heal it with a thousand or so heals.

''Oh, oh!''

　The elephant beastman, who was being put on a stretcher and prepared to be carried, wakes up.

What!
What, is he back on his feet?　Heels, right?
This is ... exotic recovery magic?

　The doctors were amazed.

　I had no righteousness to help all the beastmen who were injured in this tournament, but at least I was willing to let those I had injured recover.

　After that, the elephant beastmen thanked me repeatedly, but it was my fault for overdoing it in the first place, and I felt like it wasn't right for them to thank me, so I left the place to escape.



　The third round, the second game began.

　The battle card was Beast King Soldier vs Beast King Soldier.

　One of them was the Beast King Soldier who led us to the Temple of the Warrior. It was a battle between two of the country's best fighters, and it was really a heated battle. The place was buzzing with excitement.

　In the end, our guide, the Beast King Soldier, won. He would be my next opponent.



　The third and final match was between the Beast King Soldiers and the deer beastmen at the checkpoint in the royal capital.

　The only herbivorous beastman who could make it to the main fight was the deer beastman, and he had defeated another Beast King soldier in the second round. He hadn't seen the matchup, so he wasn't sure how he had won, but he was the only beastman who hadn't been seeded and was currently winning.

　The matchup began.


　I understood why the deer beastman was so strong.

　He uses magic.
　It was also quite fast to activate it.
　Probably, he was a beastman with a magical profession.

　He enhanced his physical abilities with his physical enhancement magic and his almost complete magical robe, and he overwhelmed the Beast King soldier.

　If Liuxin won the next match, he would be fighting a deer beastman.



　Now, that Liuxin, in the third round, he faced the Wolf Beastmen in the fourth match.

　This wolf beastman is said to have the fastest attack speed among the Beastmen...

　It wasn't the enemy of Liuxin who had learned partial dragonization. Liuxin had completely parried all of the attacks from the Beast King Soldier that were being launched at high speed.

　And while the Beast King soldier was surprised that the attack was swept away, he brushed off his leg and swung his fist down at the fallen Beast King soldier's face.

　Liuxin's fist stopped right in front of the wolf beast-king soldier. So, the Beast King Soldier admitted that he had lost.



　The third round, the fifth game.

　Meldi faced off against the Beast King Soldier, and Meldi won the game overwhelmingly.

　His opponent, the Beast King Soldier, wasn't weak either.
　But Meldi, who turned his magic robe into flaming armor and used even more advanced martial skills, was far superior to them.

　The magic to turn a magic robe into flaming armor - I had shown this to Meldi once before.

　It was a perfect replica of that.

　As usual, I'm impressed with Meldy's fighting sense.



　The third round, the sixth and seventh games were both fights between the Beast King Soldiers.



　The third round and eighth match was between the leopard beastmen who had slayed Taore-no-Mato in the preliminary round, and Meldi's father, Leo.

　The winner was Leo.

　The beast of the leopard slashed the target with his sword and caught it with his arm.

　Leo's powerful fist slammed into the leopard beastman, who was surprised that he couldn't even cut his skin, and he was blown out of the fighting table.


　The eight best of the Bushin Martial Arts Tournament were decided.

　And the quarterfinal matchup was──.

　Me vs. the Beastmen
　Deer Beastman vs. Rusin
　Merdi vs. the Beastmaster
　Beast King Soldier vs. Leo

　This was the case.



　First, I blasted the Beast King soldier with a punch enhanced by the magic robe and won.

　Then, faster than the deer beastmen could activate their magic, Ryushin thrust a dragon claw at him to win.

　Meldi and Leo also won, overwhelming their opponents' beast-king soldiers.



　Now, this is where it comes into play.

　The Beast King Soldiers are quite strong compared to ordinary beastmen, but compared to Ko(i)y(ii)ts(iii) and the others who made it to the semi-finals, they're still not as good as they should be.

　Maybe Ryushin hasn't shown me his full potential yet, and Meldi has a horrible battle sense. If we're going to fight the two of them, we can't let our guard down.

　It's not so much that I can afford to be a struggling Leo as I can afford to be a demon that I could easily defeat.

　I've got a suspicion about the fighting spirit that Leo is wearing.

　If my prediction is correct, he's going to be...


　At any rate, two more wins and we'll have the reward of Meldi's - or rather, the cat-beastman's pawpaw in this country as much as we want to touch it. I'm grinning a bit.


　Okay, let's kill it!

　Oops, my mistake.

　I was having so much fun that I felt a bit of a murderous urge.

　Ryushin was trembling and looked back at me in a frenzy.

　Meldy is shaking as she looks at me with a tearful expression.


　I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
　I won't kill your precious friends.

　I'll take it easy on you.......right?
