"Sword God Cup?"
"Right! It is the biggest tournament in the city, named after [Sword God] which is a legendary class called [Superior Class]. This tournament is for determining the strongest swordsman in both name and reality! Of course, I want Arel-san to participate in it!”

That was why Lilia offers an Entry sheet.

"Doesn't this look like a marriage registration letter does it?"
"O-Of course not!?"
"Then why are you panicking and looking away?"
"No, I think it was an ant's hand of course, so I don't think I did it!"

........... Did you think so?

It had been a long time since that match, until now I was still a part of Dragon Fang.
Recently training with Raina and muscle training was my main menu. Therefore, there was no need to rush to the other big guilds.

As I learned from yesterday's competition, it was best to fight strong opponents to improve the real battle experience.

Because there were only B-rank swordsmen here, so it was a bit unsatisfactory.

If I could mastering [Heavy Swordsman] skill, then this guild will no longer be useful.

"No no, why does it look like a business!? Even though we had been protecting this guild once, is there something you don't like!? Even though there is a very beautiful woman here!"
"Not"
"I was ignored !?"

Lilia screamed, holding her head.

"In the first place, you say about fighting together, but don't you do nothing? Don't beautify the past."

"Uuu~"

The fact that I showed was so piercing Lilia.

"B-but still! This is the guild your mother once was here!? I guess it's okay to count it!"
"Mother is mother. me is me."
"What a cold son."

After speaking loudly, Lilia then sighed deeply.

"When I found out that Arel-san's mother was [Sword Princess] Farah, I thought it was fate ... But why would someone bloodless and tearless like Arel-san be born from such a gentle and tolerant woman. ... "
"What do you say?"

Let me emphasized, I had blood and tears.
... Speaking of that, blood had been shed every day recently, but there were no memories about tears.

"But at least being able to do something from the crisis for now, that's enough."
"Now, at least please participate in the Sword God Cup as a member of Dragon Fang!"
"Speaking of that, when will the Sword God Cup be held?"
"Etto ~"

According to Lilia, the Sword God Cup had a qualification round and a final round.
Only 32 people could participate in the final round.

Twenty of them were confirmed as twenty rank swordsmen.
B-rank swordsmen and below competing in the qualification for the remaining 12.

"Arel-san still a D-rank swordsman, so to participate in the final round, you must win the first and second rounds."

The first qualifying round would only be followed by C-rank and D-rank swordsmen.
It said that there were around 400 swordsmen who fight and only one person could continued to the second qualifying round.

If you won, it will be the second qualifying round together with a B-rank swordsman.
Once again, only twelve people could participate in the final from nearly one hundred swordsmen.

And with twenty rank swordsmen, plus the people who won the qualification round, the total were 32 people who will compete in the final round.

"It's really a steep road huh."
"That's right, so the first qualifying round will be held one week from now. Then after that the second qualifying round, and the final round will be held one month from now. "

One month from now.
...... then, it was around that time that I was able to obtain [Heavy Swordsman] skill.

"And then, if you want to get battle experience, then that's a good place!"
"Mu ~?"

◇ ◈ ◇

Guided by Lilia, we came to a building in the western part of the city.
The building looked like a prison, but people had walked in and out of it.

"Is that a dungeon?"
"Right! There is a vast labyrinth in the underground of this sword city!"

Dungeon.
It was said that the place was created in this world by the will of the gods, it was a mysterious labyrinth that spread throughout the world.

Each dungeon had various characteristics, besides that it also had a complicated structure like a maze. Some traps were also installed. The general thing that applied to all dungeons was that's a place inhabited by mamono (magical beast).

However, who would have thought that there was a dungeon just below the city.

"Initially, a dungeon was discovered first, and then a city was built on it. Because this dungeon is a good place for sword training."

And, Lilia.

"In particular?"
"Fufu, if you enter, you can see it."

Very bad, since we came she was so arrogant. It can't be helped, following Lilia we entered into the building.

By the way, Raina also came.
When I told her that Lilia and I would go to the dungeon, she said that she would come.

"I- I also want to have a real battle experience for the Sword God Cup!"

She seems to had also participated.
In other words, more than 90% of the city swordsmen will appear.

"........... Even though this is a good opportunity to be alone together ... A quick approach of misunderstanding to make a pounding love... dungeon doki-doki. Plans that use the dungeon effect..."

I think it was good that Raina came with us because Lilia somehow muttered something that looked disappointed.
