「Uoooooooooo!」

「Ikeeeeeee!」

Marion responds to the cheers by dodging Mince’s punches and continuing to deliver accurate counterattacks.

「Marion!」

「MARION!」

「Old man! Do your best!」

The audience suddenly heated up seeing Mince’s struggle even though she’s clearly the stronger fighter. However, the battle hasn’t moved on at all.

Marion’s punches are not working.

Scalekin, who have scales all over their bodies, are like wearing armor even if they are naked.

No matter how many times they are hit in the stomach or face, they rarely suffer from damage that would make them fall down.

Yet, the punches they deliver with their strong arms are truly one hit KO.

In some countries, they are called little dragons, which means they are not the kind of fighters that can be defeated in a bare, fist to fist match.

No matter how talented he is, there is no way Marion can win.

However, as long as they are in the ring, there’s always a possibility.

The miracle of an uncle who had never killed a single monster in his life……can pull off in this dormant sports arena.

「Husbandddd! Hang in thereeee!」

A woman’s voice came from somewhere, and the next moment, there was an electrifying right connected to Mince’s jaw.

And another ghostly hook to Mince who did not show any sign of movement and one more.

And another left hook with the same speed connected to the same spot. Mince collapsed to her knees and lay on the ground.

『Three! Two! One!』

During the count, no one in the hall raised their voice.

『I can’t believe it! Amazing! Against a scalekin! Against Mince! He won with his bare hands! Marion! West city’s Marion winnnnn!』

As soon as Roast exclaimed those, an ear breaking cheer rushed through the street!

Roast seemed to be holding Marion’s hand up and saying something but I couldn’t hear it.

It was as if a bomb had exploded and the explosion of the crowd’s emotions seemed to shake buildings as well.

「MA-RI-ON! MA-RI-ON!」

「Impressive!」

「Mince-anego! Are you okay!」

It was a truly dramatic victory.

Overnight, Marion became the hero of this city.

I didn’t think Mince would lose either so I was seriously surprised.

I guess there are people like that.

「Did you see that? That guy pour four hits on Mince’s jaw which made her collapsed.」

「Eh? I didn’t noticed it at all.」

「His movement was too fast for a normal human.」

「Yeah? What kind of divine protection does he have?」

「Don’t know」

Kangaroo’s divine protection or something?

While I was nursing the twins, who were startled into crying by the sudden loud cheer, I vaguely recalled the marsupials from my previous world.

This was the second Mole Festival, which began with my second brother’s idea, but it turned out to be a good festival with everyone who participated saying they were glad they did.

The newest members of the Schenker family, who had just been recently purchased, were particularly pleased. They said that the city people’s eyes on them had changed a bit.

After all, our slaves are strangers who have been bought from somewhere.

They must have always felt a little uncomfortable.

For those who were not involved with the Schenker family, the Schenkers themselves are like a black ship of a redneck who has risen to nobility and is doing whatever he pleases with his money.

The fact that various stores invested in the festivities held by the Schenkers through second brother’s connections must have helped us gain some credibility.

It can’t be helped. Torquiva is rich but a rural area.

Even though it’s a wheat producing area, it’s not a major trading center because wheat here is usually reserved for the royal capital.

It’s not a very open area.

For the sake of our employees, we will continue to actively offer money and people when there are events.

It’s a world where ordinary people may be invincible in the economy but if they antagonize the people of the city, it could lead to certain death.

It’s hard to socialize given that situation.

I open the window of my room to see children running down the street in front of my house.

「I’m Marion!」

「Punch punch!」

「Let’s see if you can match this Mince….」

「Abuta-chan, it’s true that you have scales but you’re a fishkin!」

「That doesn’t matter!」

The children imitate everything so easily.

I watched the children running away with fists outstretched and slowly gazed at the sky, which was gradually turning into azure.

The wind was blowing in but it was not cold enough for me to put my collar up.

Lately, the cold has been mixed with occasional warm days.

Spring is steadily approaching Torquiva.
