482-Absolutely Alice





 The fourth day of the Six Kings Festival was hosted by Dragon King Magnawell. The theme of the festival seems to be interacting with demons.
 From this alone, you might think it's like a zoo, but in reality, there are many stalls that look like a normal festival. However, there are quite a few demonic elements, such as slime shaped drink containers and dragon masks for sale.

Oh, Miyama-kun. Oh, Miyama-kun, we're going to have a skewered wyvern meat.
I bought it once myself... but is Wyvern meat a pretty famous ingredient?
'Wyvern is a weak demon, but there are so many of them. They're very popular as food.
''Yes. Simply in terms of taste, Red Dragon and Black Dragon are better, but Wyvern is easier to hunt.

 Fea-sensei answers my question with a bright smile, and Noin-san agrees with him.
 In addition, this is only the opinion of a former brave man and a former demon king. According to the information of the auntie of the Red Bear Sandwich stall, who is a civilian, it's quite a dangerous demon.

''But it's a bit surprising. I thought that since it's a festival for demon subjects, there were a lot of huge things in it.''
Miyama-kun, not all demons are as big as Belle, okay?
''I see... well, now that you mention it, what's the difference between the kind called demons and the kind called demons?''
Simply put, it's magic and knowledge. The demons that possess a certain level of magical power and wisdom are classified as demons because they do not attack people unnecessarily. Well, there seems to be some detailed criteria, but I don't know that much about it because the judges are under Magnawell-sama's command.

 If you say so, if you have the knowledge to act with reason and power above the standard, you're a demon race.......

''Well, I don't need to think too much about it, but if Magnawell-sama approves, I think it's fine to be a demon race.
I see...
But ... the atmosphere of the festival has changed in a long time since I've seen it ... it's kind of refreshing.
''Fea hasn't even participated in the Festival of Heroes all these years. A lot of things have been handed down and changed in the last thousand years from the world I and Kaito-san were in.

 It seems that Fia-sensei had never attended a festival before, and he was looking at the stalls here and there with great interest.
 In particular, his eyes were shining at the stalls for things like takoyaki, which must have come from our world. The sight of her was somehow cuter than my usual impression of her, as she seemed to be more childish.
 Fortunately, I'm sure I can teach her a lot about the things that were handed down from the world I was in, and I want Fea-sensei to have a good time with them.

 As I'm walking around thinking about that, I hear a loud cheer a bit farther away and turn towards it.

''........Oh, even I know that thing is 'WANAGE'!
....

 ...a guy who's different from the one I know is out of the blue! Wait, it's called Super Exciting Battle Sports or something like that - honestly, I'd like to see something scary.

'Maybe they're having a tournament, WANAGE is very powerful, let's take a look. Would you be okay with that, Kaijin-san?
'What? Yeah, I'm fine.

 Noin-san has lived in this world for more than a thousand years, and he's not surprised by WANAGE.
 However, I wanted to take a look at it too, so I nodded to Noyn-san's suggestion and decided to move on.

 As I headed towards the place where WANAGE was taking place, as if led by the cheers, I heard a real-life situation in broadside magic on the way.

'Now, let's introduce the next opponent. First up is the red corner! WANAGE, the world's 16th ranked A-Level Nagelist, is a fierce master of the famous "kagura" technique! Can we use our signature 'Gun and Stay' strategy to win?

 Oh, just when I thought I was finally no longer upset by existing words, there's another increase in words I don't know! Grade A Nagelist! World rank! 
 Even though we haven't moved to a position where we can see them better yet, I'm already hungry for the actual situation.

'And then........from the blue corner.......it's finally here! World number one! The pinnacle of many nagerists! 'Mysterious super beautiful nagerist' nightmare!
....

 .... you're Alice, he's definitely Alice you're the world's number one?
 It's a competition I don't know at all, and a guy I know, for all intents and purposes, came out as a champion... how do I deal with this uncomfortable feeling?

'That's great, Fear! Um, it's a matchup of the undefeated champion Nightmare!
'Lucky you! They rarely show up outside of official games...
....

 And then there was this tension between my two companions. It's hard to imagine what it's like to be the only bare face in a room full of drunkards.

It's hard. Nightmare player, pointing to the sky! It's out! A preview of "Shooting Star"! The audience is excited!'
....
So, the legendary Shooting Star is going to be able to see it?
'It's okay, Fear! Whenever the Nightmare does a warning shooting star, it's a shooting star to win the game!

 No longer surprised by the new words, I just waited quietly with cold eyes, waiting for the time to pass.

 Dear Mom and Dad - the crowd is very excited, as the actual words say, including Dr. Fear and Mr. Noin - but I'm not quite in the flow. I can't keep up with the tension - because that thing - it's definitely Alice.
