Chapter 223 Fan Club 3

Part 2

To begin with, it is not unheard of for a same Relic to appear. The general opinion is that the number of occurrences increases in proportion to the number of items that were once in circulation, but there have been cases in the past where two or more Relics that were thought to have existed only once appeared multiple times.

This thinking is much more natural than thinking that the Fox Mask Fan Club were bad guys who burned down the town and stole items from the museum. In other words, it is the same item that was stolen, but not the stolen items.

I *panpan* slapped the newspaper and continued when Lucia was still skeptical.

“In the first place, it’s too early to judge that it’s the same thing just by looking at a picture――No, wait?” (Cry)

“...... What is it?” (Lucia)

I looked at the newspaper with a serious expression, as if I had my eyes like saucers.

According to the newspaper, the name of this Relic is 『Key of the Earth』 and it is one of the national treasures.

Leaving aside whether it is the same Relic or not, and leaving aside the lack of scabbard on it, isn’t the fact that a second one was found be called major news.

Maybe if I take this Relic and ask the museum, they might show me the museum’s Relic up close. Maybe they will even let me touch it.

“...... Let’s stop by the museum on our way home.” (Cry)

“...... Are you sure it is fine to go only on the way home?” (Lucia)

No, that’s not all. If I get on the good side of the museum, I am sure they will show me other valuable Relics as well.

I have to express my gratitude to the Fox Masks Fan Club once again.

I then handed the Relic to Luke, who was looking at the sword with the expression of a dog that had been told to stay since earlier.

“Okay. You can’t cut people with it.” (Cry)

『Lame.』 (Imouto Kitsune)

『I want it.』 (Ani Kitsune)

Apparently, it was shunned by the Imouto Kitsune but well received by the Ani Kitsune.

And then we safely arrived at 【Cleat】, the Supreme Martial Arts Festival venue, the city of swords and struggle.

There was some excitement in the cities along the way, but the enthusiasm enveloping the main city was not at the same level.? It was as if the elation and tense atmosphere that Treasure Hunters (Apparently) felt before a battle seemed to be contagious.

Just a quick check revealed an abundance of Mercenaries, Hunters, and other tough-looking people who have fought many on battlefields before and are clearly making a living from battle. Even in the Imperial Capital, Treasure Hunters can be seen here and there, but not at that level.

And in this city, those who take pride in their power will clash and compete for supremacy. Men can’t help but be excited about this.

Heyyyy, thank goodness that I am just a spectator.

Sytry, who was also one of those contestants, *niconico* says smilingly.

“Cry-san, I am sure they are already accepting contestants, so I will go there. As we are in the same Party, I can register everyone in one go.” (Sytry)

“Aaaah, see you later.” (Cry)

“May I borrow your ticket?” (Sytry)

Sytry is really a hard worker.

Handing over the platinum ticket as I was told, I looked around at the warriors strolling down the street in a daze, feigned to be badass, and said.

“So the war...... Begins.” (Cry)

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

Only one thing to say: Let the war begins!

Strange Grief VS Kitsune!

Tchao à plus!
