k.u.ma-san Comforting Fina

In this dismantling event, Fina ended up in 17th place.

The number of partic.i.p.ants exceeded 100 people. Considering that, it was an outstanding achievement.

But when Fina heard her name called out as 17th place, her face fell dejectedly.

“Onee-chan, are you crying?” (Shuri)

From here, I couldn’t see Fina’s face.

“Ellelaura-sama, may I go to Fina?” (Tirumina)

Tirumina-san got up and tried to run over to Fina, but Ellelaura-san stopped her.

“Tirumina-san, wait a minute.” (Ellelaura)

Ellelaura-san said as she looked at Fina in the hall.

Eliza-san walks over to Fina, who is depressed with her head down.

The surrounding partic.i.p.ants, as well as Eliza-san, begin to gather around Fina.

“Onee-chan is surrounded!” (Shuri)

I wondered what was going on for a moment, but then I realized that they were comforting her.

Their voices were too far away to be heard, but I could make out their laughter and other sounds. The partic.i.p.ants smiled and spoke to Fina, and Fina’s face turned into a smile as she talked to them.

“Onee-chan is smiling.” (Shuri)

“Tirumina-san, it looks like it’s not our turn. When Fina-chan returns, we will greet her with a big smile.” (Ellelaura)

“Yes, we will.” (Tirumina)

Everyone nodded in agreement with Ellelaura-san’s words.

If we looked sad, it would be a burden for Fina.

Then Fina returned with Sanya-san, after the gathering with other partic.i.p.ants ended.

“Onee-chan!” (Shuri)

“Shuri!” (Fina)

Shuri ran and hugged Fina, who gently accepted her and patted her head.

Tirumina-san called out to Fina.

“Fina, you did a fantastic job!” (Tirumina)

“Yes, but I lost.” (Fina)

She lost, but there was no sadness on her face.

The people who partic.i.p.ated in the dismantling must have brought a smile to Fina’s face.

“Fina-chan, I don’t know what to say, but it was spectacular. I’m glad I was there to see it.” (s.h.i.+a)

“s.h.i.+a-sama…” (Fina)

“Hmmm, it was worth recommending Fina-chan.” (Ellelaura)

Ellelaura-san looked happy.

Finally, I called out to her.

“Good job, Fina!” (Yuna)

“Yuna Onee-chan…” (Fina)

Fina’s eyes waver, and she looked down when she thought she saw it.

“I’m sorry.” (Fina)

“Why are you sorry?” (Yuna)

Fina had nothing to apologize for.

“Because it was supposed to have been a monster that Yuna Onee-chan took down, and I have also dismantled…” (Fina)

Did she care about that?

“It’s not like you couldn’t dismantle it; Fina did it to the end.” (Yuna)

“But…” (Fina)

Fina looked apologetic that she lost with a monster I had brought for her.

“Fina did her best. It’s not the skill or the knowledge of dismantling that was lacking. I think it was your height and strength that was lacking.” (Yuna)

I smiled and placed my bear puppet on top of Fina’s head.

She was so small.

“Ugh, I want to grow up.” (Fina)

Fina’s cheeks puff out.

“Yes, Fina is going to grow up and get bigger and stronger.” (Yuna)

Fina was certainly growing up.

At the age of 11, she made it to the fourth round with the other partic.i.p.ants. That was something to be proud of.

The bigger she gets, the easier it should be for her to dismantle.

I did not know if Fina would continue to dismantle as she got older, but Fina was still a child. The future holds all kinds of possibilities.

She will continue to grow.

Who knows what the future holds?

I think it would be cool for a former recluse to say something like this.

“What do you plan for the finals, Yuna-chan along with everyone?” (Ellelaura)

Ellelaura-san asked.

Fina’s dismantling event was over, but there would be a final for the remaining 10.

Our goal was to cheer for Fina. But I was curious to know what kind of monsters would be in the finals and who would be the winners.

Well, we are sure that one of those two would win.

“What do you think, Fina? Do you want to watch until the end? Or go home and rest if you’re tired?” (Yuna)

She should have been physically tired from the dismantling and mentally tired from partic.i.p.ating in an unfamiliar event. But Fina shook her head.

“Ummm, I promised Eliza-san that I would see it through to the end.” (Fina)

We decided to stay behind and do what Fina wanted. Besides, I was curious to see who would win and what Eliza-san’s ranking would be.

“Well, the finals are about to start, so I’m going, but Fina-chan, if you want to stay, do you want to go with me? You can watch from up close.” (Sanya)

Sanya-san invited Fina to join her.

Fina looked at me and Tirumina-san with a worried expression on her face.

“Have a great time.” (Yuna)

“Go ahead.” (Tirumina)

Tirumina-san and I had the same thought.

It would be for Fina’s sake.

“Un, I’m off.” (Fina)

Fina was taken by Sanya-san down to the venue.

“I wonder what the finals will be like, have you watched them in the past Ellelaura-san?” (Yuna)

“I’ve never seen the under-19 compet.i.tion. I’ve only been to over 20 compet.i.tions once in a while to see the monsters.” (Ellelaura)

“What about s.h.i.+a?” (Yuna)

“I’ve never been interested, so I’ve never come to see them either.” (s.h.i.+a)

Well, I would only go to a monster dismantling event if my acquaintances were partic.i.p.ating in it.

Even in my previous world, if I had the chance to see a pig or a cow being butchered, I would not have taken the initiative to go see it.

I didn’t mean it the same way as s.h.i.+a said, but I wouldn’t have been interested either.

I came to watch because Fina was partic.i.p.ating.

When I looked at the venue, preparations for the finals were over, and the 10 finalists were lined up.

As a woman, I would like to wish the best to Eliza-san, the other female finalist, but with her ranking in the previous round, I doubt she would win the champions.h.i.+p.

I’d like to see her move up in the rankings, even if it’s only by one place.

“Thank you for your patience. We will now begin the finals with the 10 remaining contestants.” (Master of Ceremony)

The audience was excited as the master of ceremony took the microphone and announced.

It was a little disappointing that Fina was not there.

“Now, let’s hear from the 10 finalists.” (Master of Ceremony)

The master of ceremony speaks to Deed-kun.

“Deed-kun, congratulations. You’ve placed first in all the first rounds and are now in the finals.” (Master of Ceremony)

“Thank you.” (Deed)

“It looks like you’re going to win the champions.h.i.+p for the second time in a row, doesn’t it?” (Master of Ceremony)

“Yes, that’s right. I would like to give a good report to my seniors.” (Deed)

Deed-kun gives a safe response.

“Deed, go for it!”

“If you lose, I’ll educate you from the ground up!”

A voice called out from the audience.

He was dressed like an adventurer. They may be his party members.

Next, the master of ceremony approaches Garde-kun, who comes in second.

“I’m sorry about Garde-kun, but you came in second in all of them. Of course, this is another great result.” (Master of Ceremony)

“In the finals, I will win. That’s all.” (Garde)

He said while looking at the best Deed-kun.

“Good luck leader!”

“Garde, don’t lose!”

Someone from the audience shouted as well, just like with Deed-kun.

“We have high expectations of you, so please do your best.” (Master of Ceremony)

The master of ceremony then went on to talk to the rest of the remaining people.

“I can’t let them see me in an embarra.s.sing state.”

“I’m just going to show you what I can do.” 

“I want you to watch me dismantle and learn from me.”

“Those two aren’t the only ones who are great.” (Master of Ceremony)

Somehow, I think he was looking toward where Sanya-san and Fina were sitting at the commentary table.

The microphone was then turned to Eliza-san, who came through in 10th.

“Now let’s hear from Eliza-chan, the only woman to make it to the finals. First, congratulations on making it to the finals.” (Master of Ceremony)

“Thank you very much.” (Eliza)

“How are you approaching the compet.i.tion?” (Master of Ceremony)

“I don’t know how well I can do because everyone is so good, but I want to show them that I’m not ashamed to be seen.” (Eliza)

After all, Eliza-san’s eyes also seem to be on Sanya-san and Fina.

At first, I thought it was an appeal to Sanya-san, the guild master, but Eliza-san’s words made me think it was a statement everyone was pus.h.i.+ng to Fina.

“Now then, let’s hear from Sanya-san, the Adventurers’ Guild Guildmaster.” (Master of Ceremony)

At the master of ceremony’s words, Sanya-san also picked up the microphone.

“Up to this point, the next generation of young people who have stayed behind, those who work in the guild, and those who are adventurers and defeat monsters. I can’t thank you enough for all the different people who have joined us. Guild workers hone their skills every day, and adventurers do dangerous work. I hope you will grow step by step, without overdoing it. I am sure there will be many people who would like to see your dismantling skills again next year. So please don’t lose a single person and join us next year.” (Sanya)

In other words, they didn’t want to reduce the number of people partic.i.p.ating, so please join us next year. Was that what he was trying to say?

I may have a dirty mind for making such an evil guess.

“Being an adventurer is a dangerous job, and some of the people who partic.i.p.ated today may not be able to partic.i.p.ate next year.” (Ellelaura)

Ellelaura-san said what I had in mind.

That’s right. I was safe because of the bear equipment G.o.d gave me, but other adventurers would not be so lucky.

They might be injured. Worst-case scenario, they might be dead.

It appears that my heart was tainted.

“Well, then, let’s hear the last word from Fina-chan.” (Master of Ceremony)

“What, me?” (Fina)

Fina panicked when the master of ceremony suddenly dumped on her.

Sanya-san gently handed the microphone to Fina.

“You are all excellent at dismantling, so I would like to watch and study you all carefully.” (Fina)

“That’s the word. Gentlemen, I can’t show you anything embarra.s.sing. By the way, who will Fina-chan be supporting?” (Master of Ceremony)

“Umm, I want Eliza-san to do well. I want Eliza-san to do well, too.” (Fina)

Fina replied shyly.
