121-Episode 40: You Can Do Anything If You Have Muscle
"King Tamer Cup Second Semifinal!?Who will advance to the final!?First, the eye of the cyclone in this tournament!?Enter Trainer Arel and his merry band of S-class guild members from Monsterland!
I walk into the field, still in the midst of all the excitement.
'It's a behemoth!'
There's Leviathan!
I'd like to see them both again!
Today, Befi is properly with me.
Though her eyelids are closed as she walks.
But neither Befi nor Libby were planning to fight.
I was going to let Fenny do her best this time.
He is trembling, but he'll probably be fine.
You should get used to it.
"Ho, do I really have to fight my way out of this...?
We've done it. We deserve it!
"Hm.
'Sh........and there's no way........'
Fenny walks to the center of the field with a look of determination on her face.
'Hey, there's another one out there?
Was he a mythical creature?
Oh no, it's cool and austere.
But he's kind of scared, isn't he?
You're already dying.
The crowd is concerned.
'My opponent is the runner-up from the last tournament!?He narrowly missed out on the right to challenge the King Tamer after losing in the final, but he'll be looking for revenge this time around with more power!?I belong to the S-Class Guild of Boo-Boo!?The self-proclaimed "muscle trainer", Garganda, is here!?You're going to show your opponents that you can do anything with your muscles!
Appearing from the entrance gate on the other side were a large muscular man and five demons that appeared to be worms.
''What the hell is this all about??Trainer Gargantua, where are the usual Muscle Monsters?''
I was watching the last match, and it was indeed a formation of demons like minotaurs, ogres, and centaurs, all trained to be munchkins.
''Gahahahahahaha!?Don't think I'm the same as I was!?After losing the last tournament, I know what I've learned.?Just because you have muscles doesn't mean you can do everything, you know!
The whole hall buzzed.
'Really?'
My brain muscles are getting smarter.
Or rather, you finally realize.
'How dare Trainer Galgandha, you've bent your beliefs!?Will this turn out to be a good thing or a bad thing!?Let the game begin!''
As soon as the match begins, the worms all dive into the ground at once.
"Are you going to hide in the ground and attack from underneath your feet?
But there's no sign of the worm anytime soon.
'What's the matter!?Go ahead and try to attack!?Gahahahahahahaha!?No, you can't!?Whether it's Behemoth or Leviathan, it's impossible to attack a worm in the ground!
I see.
So that's your plan.
Don't tell me you're trying to make a run for it, trainer Garganda?
Each match had a time limit of one hour.
If the match was not settled even after this time, the winner would be decided by the number of monsters that could continue fighting.
However, if the number of monsters were the same
''The winner will be decided based on the results of the last tournament...!
What a cowardly plan!
Shame on you!
Those muscles are an accessory!
Fight fair and square!
The whole audience booed at once.
''Gahahahahahaha!''?Call it what you will!?After all, it's all about winning, if you win!
But Gargantua listens to the accusations without a care in the world.
'Trainer Garganda, you're completely open for business!?But surely this was an effective tactic!?Can trainer Arrell really make a move??I don't want an hour where nothing changes, so do something about it!
He forgot his neutral position, and I could hear his heartbroken true feelings.
'Fenny, can you make it?'
No, let's do it.
Fenny, who had been freaking out at the bustle around her, finally broke free of her humanization here.
Immediately after, her entire body was instantly engulfed in flames.
''Nah, the mysterious middle-aged man suddenly burst into flames!?Are you okay?
The flames swelled up at once and turned into a huge mass, and then, just like an egg hatching, it cracked open with a crack.
A huge bird with a wing span of 200 meters spread its wings and appeared in the middle of the field.
The temperature in the hall rose at once from the super high heat emanating from its entire body.
''Whew, whew, whew, it's a phoenix!
The appearance of the third mythical grade demon.
As expected, I thought it wouldn't be so surprising if it was the third time.
'Ohhhhhh!
'Wow!
How eeeeeeeeee!
He was surprised that the tension was exactly the same as before.
'What a surprise, trainer Arrell, you even have a mythical demon, Phoenix, with you!?But, but will the bird demons be able to defeat the worm that ran into the ground?
Fenny exhaled a breath of flame towards the ground.
'Gahahahahahaha!?Phoenix, I'm afraid!?But I still think I've won.?No fire can reach the ground--hot!
Suddenly, Gargantua jumped up.
''Hot, hot!''
'What's the matter with this one??Trainer Gargantua, he's starting to do that mysterious dance!
It's not a dance!?What's this heat?
The ground was as hot as a burnt iron plate due to Fenny's high heat flames.
For some reason, it seemed to be hard for the barefoot Gargantuan to just stand there normally.
At that moment, worms jumped out from various parts of the field.
''What a way to heat up the ground and forcibly drag the worms out of the ground!
The ground is much easier for heat to pass through than the air.
It must have been hell to be in the ground, and the worms seemed to be unbearably out there.
But then, this time they would fall directly prey to Fenny's breath.
Goooooooooooooh!
"'Gaaaaaaaahhhh!'
Five baked worms were made and settled.
