My Characters Are Heroes From Another World 45

Chapter 45 – Arena (3)

The host’s voice to start rang out in the square.

Since the game is held every year, there were many people who came to watch.

And it was worth it.

In this world, where people have far less things to enjoy than the world I lived in, there are few things that give people more dramatic pleasure than watching a fight.

There is another reason.

“Now, game 1! Pick the winner of game 1~! Who wins the money!”

Why an arena?

It is a dumping ground because you have to bet money to raise money.

But I don’t bet.

As Koreans, don’t we learn?

If you’re not sure, don’t bet.

I have a hand that will definitely win, so why bother competing?

Currently, there are a total of 32 people participating in the arena, divided into groups A-D.

Among them, by coincidence, Ellie is in Group A and Lien is in Group D.

After waiting for a while as the game progressed, it was now Ellie’s turn.

“What? That woman!”

“This is no place to play, bitch!”

“Your breasts are so big, get eliminated quickly and have a match with me!”

Insults rain down on Ellie from the crowd.

I wanted to jump out right now and cut down all the bullshit talkers, but I held back.

Rather, it was more urgent to stop Yuria than me.

Yuria’s eyes split lengthwise, and her tail rose high into the sky behind her.

I feel like I’m going to run away right now.

“Yuria, hold on.”

“Ugh… But, Jinu! Those guys are swearing at Ellie.”

I sat Yuria back in her seat.

“I know. But it will change in just a little while.”

Your mouth will probably drop open.

“Now, the third match of Arena Group A! This is a female participant who doesn’t often appear in the arena! Her name is… Huh?”

Suddenly the host could not continue speaking.

“She has a very unusual name. Her name is a pink slutchul Longi!”

The moment Ellie’s introduction was finished by the host, she went up onto the pitch.

“The opponent he will fight against is Johnny, a wild player with great power who advanced to the semifinals last year!”

The man who appeared as Ellie’s opponent was a man who appeared to be over 2 meters tall.

As he was labeled as wild, his body was covered in nameless leather and he confidently climbed the stadium.

“Who is my opponent?”

An opponent named Johnny started crying in the middle of the stadium, and the crowd started shouting along with him.

“That woman has no luck.”

“After all, you meet a strong opponent from the beginning.”

That’s right.

I feel sorry for you because you are truly unlucky.

The other person.

I went to the betting place with Yuria.

“Who are you calling from?”

“I’ll bet 9 gold on Pingchaengchulongi.”

I bet everything on Ellie.

“Yes~. 9 goals, huh?”

The betting receptionist was surprised when he saw the money I handed out.

“Hey, sir? Are you saying you’re betting all that money?”

“Yes. I will bet all this money on a pink slut Chulong.”

The betting receptionist took my large sum with trembling hands.

“I will take it for now, but it will be difficult if you ask me to return it later.”

“Because that doesn’t happen, you have to give me the money later.”

When I bet a large sum of money, everyone’s eyes turned to me.

Of course.

To those people, I would look like a crazy person who goes all in on the odds.

But I’m making a very reasonable bet.

I returned to my original position with lighter steps.

“Well, now it looks like the betting is over. Let’s see… The ratio is also focused on Johnny. If Johnny wins, he can receive 1.05 times the money, and if Pingjang Chulong wins, he can receive a whopping 2 times the money. You can get it!”

As expected, there seems to be almost no one other than me who bet on Ellie.

“Are the players ready? Then come to the center.”

As the host said, they both moved to the center, and the other person frowned and glared at Ellie.

Ellie just has a bored expression on her face, as if it doesn’t really matter.

“Then the third match of Group A begins!”

At the host’s starting signal, the other person, Johnny, took a step back.

I thought he was definitely ignoring Ellie, but he seems to be wary of Ellie, perhaps because he is a player who made it to the semifinals.

Ellie slowly walks towards that person.

Her expression slightly distorted as if she thought she was being ignored by Ellie’s actions, and when Ellie came into her attack range, she quickly threw out her fist.

Most people watching thought that Ellie would be blown away by that attack, but Johnny’s fist was caught in Ellie’s grasp.

Ellie pulled Johnny out of her grasp and brought her mace straight into Johnny’s lower back.

Johnny couldn’t even react to Ellie’s attack, so he was hit and fell to the floor.

By controlling Ellie’s power, the opponent never dies in one hit.

Even though the game is over, the audience and even the host are speechless and unable to say a word.

That’s how shocking Ellie’s power is.

“Uh, ah! The game is over! Johnny’s shocking defeat. Who would have believed it! Who would have thought that Johnny would be defeated so quickly?”

Everyone is cursing Johnny because he’s finally come to his senses because he lost his money, but Ellie is leaving the stadium without even looking back.

“Winner! A pink slut Chulong is the player!”

After the game, I smiled happily and went to the receptionist to get my money.

Wow! All of my assets have doubled.

It’s like a money copy bug.

“Yes, it’s here. Yes… Hee!”

The receptionist was surprised when she saw me.

It has to be that way.

You have to return a huge amount of money back to me.

“You’re not saying you can’t give it to me, right?”

“Well… Well, I can’t give you all the money back right now, but I think I can only pay you a portion for now… Is that okay?”

Well, I only won 18 gold, so of course I can’t give it back in one go.

“Please write a contract so I can make sure I get my money back.”

“Yes… Here is the contract…”

Well… I read the contract carefully and it clearly states that I can get my money back.

I happily signed the contract and received 13 gold, which was the amount of money I could receive.

The remaining 5 gold will be received again later.

Normally, if I lost such a large amount of money, my older brothers would come and threaten me, but I have Yuria.

If you’re going to come, please come.

After the Ellie match, all Group B and C matches were completed.

To be honest, I wasn’t particularly interested in the content of the game.

Already one of Ellie and Lien will win, so why bother watching?

I spent the entire game joking around with Yuria, and finally it was Lien’s turn.

This time, I thought about putting all my money on Rien and copying the money, but I already made enough money and it won’t double as much as before.

Also, shouldn’t this arena make money so that they can copy money again next time?

You can’t cut the belly of a duck that lays eggs.

Lien’s match, like Ellie’s, was over in an instant.

Everyone reacted equally in surprise.

As time passed, Ellie and Lien gradually advanced towards the finals.

Something unexpected happened there.

As Ellie and Lien defeated their opponents with one shot, one kill, the audience began cheering for them and chanting the name of their participation, Shinmyeong.

“Pingchaengchulong! Pingchaengchulong! You are the winner this year!”

“What? The winner is definitely the Most High Empress! I only believe in you, Most High Empress!”

Oh, it seems like I’m going crazy because everyone is shouting out the divine name that sells over there, but I’m the only one here who knows what it means.

So the two met in the finals, and now the crowd is split in half and cheering for the two.

When I reached the final, I gave up halfway.

“Who will win… What do you think Yuria?”

“Hmm… If I don’t use her skills, wouldn’t Lien have a bit of an advantage?”

Yuria seems to have similar thoughts as me.

I’m a little curious to see what the reality will be like.

The expressions on the two’s faces on the stadium are more than serious, but one feels solemn.

“What kind of wish are you thinking of, why are you so serious?”

“I haven’t heard what the wish is, but it’s probably related to Jinu. Since both of you like Jinu very much.”

That’s what I agree with.

“That’s expected, but I don’t know what to wish for.”

Things that easily come to mind include things like having a night out together or asking me to marry you.

But we’ve already had a night out several times, and marriage would have been granted without me having to say it as a wish.

“Now, I am thrilled to welcome this historic moment. Which of the two will emerge victorious and take home the title?”

The host takes a breath once again.

“Then the final match… Let’s begin~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!”

Both of them have walked slowly since the start of the match and knocked them out with one blow, no matter what their opponent did so far.

However, as soon as the game started, Lien ran and threw a punch at Ellie.

Bang!

Eli also reacted immediately to Lien’s attack and blocked the attack with his left shield.

Lien must have attacked without using any skills, but the sound of her shield colliding was louder than expected.

Lien did not stop there and continued to pound her fists.

Ellie took up her defensive stance, blocking Lien’s attack with her shield.

Bang! Quack! Bang!

The sound that went out whenever each attack was blocked by the shield made me feel how powerful the attack was.

In fact, Lien’s attacks are also difficult to follow with her eyes.

Lien must have thought that her attack was blocked by the shield from the front, so he moved next to her and took advantage of her gap.

Ellie also adjusted to Lien’s movement so that attacks were not allowed.

For tens of seconds, only Lien’s attacks continued, and Ellie was only able to defend her.

It’s a match between the two that doesn’t even have a simple attack or defense, but even the spectators who were cheering loudly before the start didn’t say a word, perhaps because they were concentrating on the match.

When Lien’s continuous attacks faltered for a moment, Ellie, who was only defending herself, came forward and swung her mace.

As if Lien had expected this, she moved closer to Ellie, dodged her mace, and planted her fist into Ellie’s stomach.

“Pfft!”

She must have been in a huge shock, but as soon as her fist landed in her stomach, Ellie jumped behind her and seemed to try to distance her.

Lien must have thought that she should continue the attack, so she ran straight ahead.

At that moment, Ellie’s mace flew, and thanks to this, Lien’s advance had no choice but to stop.

After the battle continued for a moment, the two seemed to have reached a lull and stopped for a moment to look at each other.

Even though the stadium was obviously far away, it seemed like their voices could be heard.

“As expected of you, Lien. You got hit.”

“You’re amazing too. You blocked all the attacks just now.”
