Chapter 419 - Apparently, There was a Battle That Happened Behind the Scenes

It was a scene that could have been straight out of an apocalypse.

With a roar, the earth cracked, the air swirled, and people ran for cover With those descriptions, did you think that I was talking about a war? No, Im talking about a rock-paper-scissors tournament.

Right in front of me was an arena filled with craters, littered with places that were on the verge of collapsing, but the place was somehow able to maintain its original shape.

Can you believe this? Everyone was just playing rock-paper-scissors, you know? Moreover, it all started just because of a badly-made clay sculpture that I made

There was no way that an ordinary person like me could intervene in the battle called rock-paper-scissors, which had completely become some kind of ultra-dimensional sport I just prayed to G.o.d that my black history would not fall into the hands of someone troublesome.

However, my wish was scoffed at by the G.o.d I prayed to.

< Now then, the one who had won the fierce battle of rock-paper-scissors is G.o.d of Creation Shallow Vernal-sama!!! G.o.d of Creation-sama really is strong!!! >

The most troublesome person in the world got her hands on it! For the airhead s.h.i.+ro-san to acquire it, that was almost the worst outcome of all. The worst thing that could have happened was for it to fall into Eden-sans hands, but this was still the second worst situation of all.

< Hmmm. It was also close for Kuro-san, who she fought against in the finals. >

< The Underworld King just didnt have the best luck. She had to fight Shallow Vernal-sama right after her fierce battle against that Mysterious Angel, so she was exhausted. >

< Well~~ I wonder who that angel is? As soon as she lost, she disappeared as if she had no interest in any other thing anymore >

Alice and Fate-san were still doing their shameless live commentary and a.n.a.lysis, even though the audience had already fled. The only ones left here were the ones I knew.

But then again, Im feeling complicated only because of what theyre fighting about but it was a really fierce battle.

Well, I couldnt see anyone doing attacks or defends at all, but I could hear the explosions and the ground being gouged out.

Kuro beat Eden-san in the semifinals, but she seemed to have worn herself out and lost to s.h.i.+ro-san in the finals.

s.h.i.+ro-sans opponent in the semifinals was Fate-san, but Fate-san forfeited, and s.h.i.+ro-san managed to win without tiring herself during that match. Well, it was really as Fate-san said. Kuro was just not blessed with luck.

[Errr, thank you. Lillywood-san.]

No, Im just glad that Kaito-san is uninjured.

Incidentally, Lillywood-san protected me, Lilia-san and the others, so we didnt get injured.

By the way, s.h.i.+ro-san? I know you can hear me, right? Id really like it if you could promptly hand over my black history back to me, you know?

(On one condition.)

I knew that this would be the case. I had a feeling that this would happen. I have a bad feeling about what youre going to say, but please say what you want.

(Im feeling troubled about how to spend my time on the seventh day of the Six Kings Festival.)

Errr, that means

(Im feeling troubled about how to spend my time on the seventh day of the Six Kings Festival.)

This is that, all over again, isnt it? This means Im supposed to say that, right?

(Im feeling troubled about how to spend my time on the seventh day of the Six Kings Festival.)

S- s.h.i.+ro-san Well, if its okay with you, s.h.i.+ro-san

On the seventh day of the Six Kings Festival, could we hang out together

(Date.)

Could I ask you to go on a date with me?

(If Kaito-san so insists, I guess I will reluctantly consider it.)

I- I really want to go on a date with s.h.i.+ro-san. Im begging you.

(It cant be helped. If

youre going to go that far, I guess we could go on a date.)

I feel like Ive lost extremely. It seems that s.h.i.+ro-san is fixated with a situation where I ask her out, so much so that she would even shamelessly lead the conversation to that What a frightening person she is.

(If the date turns out to be a fun one, I might even give this clay sculpture to Kaito-san.)

But, Ill do my best.

I mean, I just want to ask you one thing. Why are you going that far

(Thats because Kaito-san is neglecting me.)

U- Unnn? W- What are you talking about?

(Kaito-san invited Earth G.o.d, but you didnt invite me even when you were heading towards this place.)

No, no!? You know thats impossible! I mean, theres also Lilia-san and the others with us, you know? If s.h.i.+ro-san appears, Lilia-san would totally faint!

(Even when Im just staying one floor below yours, Kaito-san didnt come to see me.)

Thats totally the first time Ive heard it, you know!? Eh? I mean, s.h.i.+ro-san is staying in the Central Tower!? You dont stay the night back in the Sanctuary!?

(I stayed there so that I could sleep with Kaito-san. But last night, I didnt have a chance to do that because of Kuro. She was also obstructing me when I tried teleporting while you were in the onsen.)

A surprising new fact just came out! What the heck are you trying to do!? I mean, such a battle happened without my knowledge!?

(Incidentally, Earth G.o.d also tried doing that. She was also stopped by Kuro though)

Thank you so much, Kuro!!! Ill definitely do something to express my thanks to her next time! Please keep that up and hold them off for the remaining six days!!!

(Just Kuro is unfair.)

No, even if you say its unfair Ill do my best to make sure that we have a fun date, so please excuse me from that. Youll kill off my reasoning if you join in.

(Mnhh.)

Even though she was cutely sulking, thats something I couldnt let pa.s.s, so I had to devote my efforts to persuading s.h.i.+ro-san for a while after that.

Dear Mom, Dad After the fierce battle, I thought the first day would be over with that, but then, I was told a shocking new fact. It seems that last night- Apparently, there was a battle that happened behind the scenes.

s.h.i.+ro-san originally became a sponsor on the condition that she would go around the seventh day together with Kaito but it seems that the G.o.d of Creation really want Kaito to invite her on a date. How cute.

This time is Hina-chan, whose character rough draft appeared 9th.

T/N: Actually, never mind. Heres a bonus chapter.
