The Only Aura User In Magic World

Finally, it's the first day of the fight! Hurray!

Though I'm totally not interested in watching people fight. Peace is the best. But for now, we need people to get stronger, so it can't be helped.

Did I, the one who massacred hundreds of cult members, said that peace is the best?

Well… there's only one way we can achieve peace. It's through violence! This is the most contradicting thought in the world.

It can't be helped if the opposite side is not someone you can negotiate with, right?

Anyway, the fight will start soon. But there will be an opening speech from someone. I don't know who that person is. Probably some noble who is one of the officials, and that person must be someone that Albert can trust.

When we plan for the tournament, after telling everyone in the training camp, Albert told several other nobles to help. And after I told Dean about the tournament, Albert has prepared everything so the officials are all people he could trust. That way, there would be no bribing. Though I don't know about the selection process of the participants for each college. But since one of the participants from Cassau entered through bribing, I think there will be a lot more child of a noble entered through the same way.

They all will regret to participate not knowing that most of the other participants who didn't enter through bribing were much stronger than average mages. Colleges with participants who entered through bribing will lose easily in the first round. Turning them into embarrassment for the whole kingdom if they got defeated too fast. At least, the need to be able to put up a good fight before being defeated.

Then, the one who will give the speech appear and stand in front of the podium. If the Television worked, the kings should be able to watch it already.

Other than the participants and the officials, we are watching from the audience seat. It's too crowded here and people are even waiting outside the Arena. Maybe it will be a good idea to introduce Television as soon as possible. I'll talk with Albert about it.

I left the kids under Sophie and the other's care since I can't watch it together with them. As usual, I need to make a round. This time, inside the Arena. Though it's a good thing that they didn't build the Arena to be huge. This way, I can see everything with my Divine Vision.

Maybe Albert put that into consideration when he planned this? If so, as expected of him.

I look around while not caring about the speech. So far, I didn't find anyone with explosive devices inside their mouth.

Next, I look outside the Arena. There are too many that I could miss someone. Why are they waiting in front of the Arena anyway?

Since I didn't find anyone again, I sighed in relief as I finally listened to the almost finished speech.

"Then, let's see who among the thirty teams will be the champion!" The guy who makes the speech ended it with that line.

So, it's thirty teams, huh? That's quite a lot.

Let's see… so it's about two teams who got seeded and won't have to fight in the first round. They will instantly be put in the top sixteen. I guess luck is also strength.

The two teams that got seeded… they don't look happy. Instead, they seem tense. Maybe they are worried if they are strong enough to compete or not. But since no one looks cocky because they got seeded, I don't think any of them bribed the college to participate.

And there are some participants who complained how they didn't get seeded. Like the other participants from Cassau whom I just see his face today. Though Jewel shut him up. I guess he's afraid because she got selected thanks to her strength.

Damn, he's so weak!

Now the speech is over, and the first fight will begin. The audience cheered for the participants. And there are some audiences from the same city as the participants who brought a banner saying 'We will win!'. Let's see if they can win or not.

…many people enjoyed the match, but some found it boring like me. I think I had enough.

The format of the match is a one-on-one match. Each team will send one person. When someone lose, the winner can continue to fight the second match. Just like that until all five members of one team defeated.

Which mean if the first participant is too strong, that person can fight five times so their team will win.

I don't enjoy it, so I stand from my seat and about to leave when the slime on my shoulder whispered something in my ear.

"Roy, where are you going?" Victoria asked.

"Out. The fight is too boring. They seem stronger than an average mage, but I still find it boring. In fact, it's not just me who got bored." I said as I looked at other people in the audience seats yawning.

"Then be the commentator. That will make the fight more interesting." Victoria suggested.

"I'll ask Kron later. Kayla's team and Angela's team won't fight today, right?"

"That's right. Angela's team will fight tomorrow in the afternoon, while Kayla's team will fight the day after in the morning. Though they will only meet at the final." Victoria said.

"Then I'll try to find that commentator. And I'll ask Albert to put a Television in front of the Arena so everyone can watch it."

"Just call it TV. And for those will be set in public, just call it screen. Television can be owned privately, but for screen, they will be put in a place like the square or in front of the Arena so everyone outside can watch it." Victoria said.

"If everyone can watch it for free, no one will attend the match in the Arena, right?" I asked.

"Not really. How about you sell a merchandise. Like a shirt that says 'I support this team!' only in the Arena. At least those from the same city will come.

"Hire people to do the chores in the Arena and selling beverages. After the tournament, the Arena should be able to be used for other purposes as well. Maybe suggest it to the Guild master to settle a quarrel between hunters in the Arena. That way, people will still come." Victoria said.

"Good idea. Tell that to Albert when we meet him. For now, how about finding some commentators for the next fight in the afternoon? No, wait. Maybe the afternoon fight is too soon. I guess it's for tomorrow then." I said.

I left the Arena after seeing that Sophie and the others are still engrossed in the fight. I can also see the invisible Sonia above them. It's funny how the people behind them looked as if they are cheering for Sonia.

After leaving the Arena, I didn't return home. Because I found two people I want to meet.

"Did you find a cult member?" Victoria asked.

Victoria whom also have no interest in the match is also leaving with me when I asked if she want to watch with the others. But my other monster companion, not the Werewolf but the Serpent, is flying above the Arena while camouflaging so no one will notice him. He's interested in the fight.

"No. But I found two people who might be a good candidate for being the commentators. I'm going to ask them right away." I said.

"You think they will do it for free?"

"It won't be for free. They will be paid." I said.

"But I doubt the officials will have some budget to hire two more people. If they volunteer to do it for free, then the officials will agree." Victoria said.

"I will be the one paying them. For now, I will ask them if they are interested or not."

I walked toward the two people who are also like the others, waiting for the result of the match outside the Arena.

I know that I have terrible memory, but I know these two people. It was back when we publicly decided the punishment for the Governor of Melk who betrayed the people after the Stampede. These two are the funny twins who keep talking shit and had a lot of fun while the others are shouting in anger.

With these two as the commentators, the match should be much more interesting than just watching two people in the Arena used fancy magic.

Just like how I remembered, one of them is big and the other is small. They are fraternal twins. Though unlike Lana and Alan, they were born normally.

"Hey you two, I have a good offer for you two. Will you listen?"

I approached the two while they are chatting to wait for the result of the match.

"Who the hell are you?" The big one asked.

"Probably just trying to scam you. How about you go with him? I'll wait for a day. If you end up naked in the street, I won't go." The small one said.

"What if I go with him, but you're the one ended up naked in the street?" The big one asked the small one.

"Why would I get naked on my own? Anyway, I refuse whatever you are offering." The small one refused.

"If you agree to my offer, you can watch the match in the Arena and don't have to wait for the result outside like this." I said.

""We're listening."" The two answered together.

If the two became the commentators, I doubt I will get bored easily.
