Part 4

T-then, lets move on to the next competition! Next up, the obstacle race!

Oh, its my turn.

Yu-Yuuya-kun! Good luck!

If its Yuuya, hell be fine.

Well, Im sure Yuuya will do just fine.

While receiving words of support from Kaede and the others, I made my way to the starting point, but when I arrived there, I felt my jaws gradually drop at the sight of the obstacles being set up on the ground.

I-is this the track?

What a surprise, a full-scale obstacle course had been prepared on the ground that would challenge any physical fitness enthusiast.

Now, the annual popular Ousei Academy specialty, the full-scale obstacle race! Try to overcome the obstacles on each course and reach the goal!

Wait, wait, wait!

Dont tell me that obstacle course is the specialty? No, but it makes sense when you see obstacles of this magnitude!

I myself had no idea that Ousei Academys athletic festival was so popular that it was broadcast on TV until I heard about it from Rin and the others.

Thats why I expected it to be an obstacle race a little bigger than a regular school, but

Once again, looking around at the participating students there were only strong-looking boys there

Finally, this day has come

My body has been tuned up for this day lets see how far it goes!

The atmosphere in the competition is such that reaching the finish line itself seems difficult! Will it be all right? seaʀᴄh thё nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Now, what great games will be contested this year? So lets get into position, everyone! Go

Bang! With a lively signal, we all started running at once.

Then, the first obstacle stood in our way.

A steep wall, about five meters high, is the first obstacle that stands in the contestants way! You will not be able to overcome this obstacle unless you have a solid run-up and the strength to run up the wall.

Shirase-san was right; an almost vertical wall appeared in front of us.

This much is phew!

I jumped up toward the wall with a little momentum, put my hand on the top of the wall, and climbed over.

Oh, participant Yuuya! He conquered this obstacle in an instant!

As expected. This should be easy for him normally. But will he be able to keep his composure after this?

The students followed me, overcoming obstacles one after another, even though they were not as smooth as I was.

A second obstacle stood in our way.

Eh?

The next obstacle was a balance beam placed on a high platform with a simple pool of water underneath.

Moreover, the platform was not designed to be crossed normally.

The second area awaiting the contestants required them to push forward while avoiding the pendulums that strike one after the other!

Yes, large cushioned pendulums attacked us as we moved forward on the balance beam, blocking our path.

Of course, you can go ahead and hang on. But then there is the concern of interference by the following contestants.

Ohki-sensei is right, if the contestants behind me catch up with me as I am crossing the rope super-carefully, the rope could be shaken, and I could be dropped.

Fortunately or unfortunately, this summer vacation has been full of battles in the other worlds and outer space, and I have enough strength left to balance this much without any problem, but

Yuuya-kun, keep up the good work!

Yuuya! You can do it!

Everyone

Cheers flew one after another from the red groups tent. With that cheering, I decided to give one a try.

Oh, at last, the followers have arrived! Will this be a disadvantage for participant Yuuya?

No, wait! That Tenjou is he going to walk on the tightrope normally in this situation?

Perhaps Ohki-sensei and the organizers were thinking that this tightrope walker was supposed to proceed ahead while hanging on, rather than just walking across normally.

That is why they were surprised that I took a step onto the rope without any hesitation.

But I wasnt going to be a regular tightrope walker.

Hmph!

Wh-whaaaaaaattt?

The rope was so tight that it was made to twist and turn as I took a step forward.

Then, using the elastic force of the rope, I jumped all the way to the opposite side.

H-he jumped! Participant Yuuya, using the recoil from the taut rope, forced himself to jump over the rope!

Thats absurd! Even if you are using a rope, can you jump a distance of more than 10 meters?

Despite the reaction of the surprised Shirase-san and the others, I landed safely on the other side and ran through in a single bound, reaching the goal.

G-goooooaaal. Participant Yuuya has reached the finish line at an overwhelming speed! And that clearance time is a new meet record! Or rather, will there ever be a contestant who can surpass it?

N-no, I dont think it will be possible I think it will be tough even for a professional contestant of this kind

I dont understand what you mean by surpassing professional athletes!'

Im glad I won for the time being, despite all thats being said. As I returned to the tent, I was greeted by Ryo and the others.

Yuuya, that was awesome!

Yeah, you clear every obstacle in an instant!

It was great to watch you.

I-is that so? Thank you.

B-but, Yuuya-kun, are you okay? Next up is the tug of war

Shingo-kun said this with concern, but I had no problem with it.

Yeah, Im fine with this much.

T-this much, you say youre too much of a monster, arent you? Look at all the other contestants.

Rin was right, the other contestants were exhausted, and they all limped back to their tents with heavy feet and collapsed in a heap.

W-well, I wouldnt have cleared it very well either if I hadnt been leveled up in the other world.

But these days, in addition to training with Master Usagi and Iris-san, I had to fight in outer space, and I was in a situation where my physical strength was increasing whether I wanted it to or not.

Since I couldnt give a detailed explanation, I tried to cover it up with a vague smile and headed to the next competition, tug-of-war.
