When I reached the goal where Megiddo was waiting for me from Black, I was greeted with a huge cheer.
　A storm of voices shaking the air, many of them praising me, was a strange, somehow itchy, yet heart-warming sensation.

''Well you lost, Kite. It was a good fight. I thank you.
No, no, thank you, myself.

　We shake hands with Megiddo in his humanized form to congratulate each other on a good fight. It's nice, this kind of thing.......you give it your all, and then you shake hands with the person you fought.
　I wasn't a member of the sports club in junior high and high school, so I can only imagine, but I guess this is what they call adolescence....even though I'm already 21....

'Speaking of which, Megiddo-san. What is this 'thing you want to teach me' that you heard from Bacchus?
'Oh, yeah. As for that, I'll tell you about it a little later at the banquet. The banquet starts at 8:00 p.m. Until then, go ahead and enjoy the festival once again.
Huh-hah... okay.

　In the end, it seems that Megiddo-san's intentions will be known at the evening banquet... or rather, that banquet, I'm going to attend?　It's a decision, right? Yes, I know.
　Well, I was first in line thanks to the Black Rank privilege, but there may be other challengers to Megiddo, and I guess it's fair to say later, in a way.

　As I was thinking about this, the course prepared for the arena disappeared and returned to normal.

'Three heated matches. The winner of the match was the challenger, Kite!　Well - that was a great fight, wasn't it?　Mr. Fate.
'That last Kai-chan was hot and cool, Kai-chan!　It's me!　Feed me!
"Ah, hahaha... well, now let's give a big round of applause to the challenger, Mr. Miyama Kite!

　..............................Fate, you're too much as usual. But don't say that line with loudspeaker magic, because it's super embarrassing!

Well, so that's the end of one battle, but there's one more big one ahead of us.
I guess it's beginning.

　...yes?　Huh?　What's with the tense atmosphere?

''Well, the battle from here on out please evacuate if you are weak-minded. You will seriously die.
'....this is not good... this is not a killer level.

　With a rumbling sound like the earth, an explosive magic force blows out from everywhere and shakes the arena. It's like an earthquake, and cracks are appearing here and there in the arena.
　Huh?　Wait a minute?　What is this.......what the hell is going on?

Well then.... we'll be having a rock-paper-scissors competition with prizes made by Kite!

　Instantly, a number of shadows popped up in the arena.

　Black, who wore black smoky magic power, Isis, who was spreading pale death magic power as much as possible, and Liliwood, who had a tired look on her face.
　Shiloh, who wears a quiet but shimmering magic, Klonoa, who has the same expression as Lillywood, and Life, who looks so serious.
　Chris and Laguna were unafraid to stand up to such a cage-like arena of fierce beasts. Eden-san, who descended from nowhere.

　........No, wait a minute!　Isn't everyone too serious!　Oh no, this is really going to destroy the world...

''Everyone, this is my motivation. The public is welcome to participate, but it's seriously dangerous, so please be mindful of that.
"Hey?　No. I'd like to join you...''
'Mr. Fate, please join us here. I'll join you from this playground.''
"I see. I get it.

　No, no, no, really, wait!　Everyone is incredibly motivated but the prize is that "sad creature"!
　I mean, give me a break....why are you all fighting over my black history?　Whoever gets it will be in hell........

''Oh, yeah. What about you, Kite?　Would you like to join us?
I do.

　In this situation, I must win and collect the black history no matter what I have to do....

''........Are you okay?　At the very least, 'You need to be able to change your moves more than a thousand times per second to be competitive, but...'
I'm scared.

　Was rock-paper-scissors such a monster sport?　Are the participants just crazy?

　As I was stunned by Alice's words, out of the corner of my eye, Black and Isis-san were playing rock-paper-scissors, as if it was practice, and I saw them playing rock-paper-scissors.
　........That's strange, right?　Why does the 'tip of the elbow disappear' when you swing down?　Why do you 'crater the ground' just by playing rock-paper-scissors?

"Oh that's a hell of a game!　Okay, I'll join you....
Megiddo?
Oh, no, I'll stop.

　In that terrific atmosphere, Megide-san, who is a battle fanatic, also tried to join in, but.......when Black gave her a single glance, she immediately sat upright.
　Megide-san, I have the feeling that you are very obedient only to Kuro.

　No, right now it's more than that.........



　I've never heard that kind of warning in rock-paper-scissors before!　No, though it's crazy that there are quite a few people who can do that!

　Thus, the battle with Megiddo-san was over.......and the monsters' rock-paper-scissors tournament was over.

　Dear Mom, Dad - it might not be quite the same as "one disaster after another".......but I didn't expect this to be such an outrageous situation. And this is the one I'm dealing with - my black history, you know!
