“I will receive that as a compliment, 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》. And by the way――You haven’t received your reward for the training, have you?” (Radrick)

 !? That’s awesome, Sytry. You are the only one who would get rewarded for squeezing blood out of someone!
 Then His Majesty said to me who was just stunned by the unexpected turn of events. His expression remained grim, but perhaps this was just…… His original face.

“I will give you an additional reward. Make any offer you wish.” (Radrick)

“That is…… Unnecessary, Your Majesty. Training Her Imperial Princess Murina is something I have offered myself――And I have received enough.” (Cry)

 I have received enough reward――Called blood!

 No matter how shameless I am, I can’t be rewarded for a training that I haven’t done anything on it. No, in fact, if I did, it would be a problem if something were to happen later.

 If I may be bold, please give me the 『True Tears (Tears of the Truth)』.

“It isn’t just for the training. It is also for stopping 《Stillwater (Shisui)》, fighting off the “Fox (Kitsune)”, and also the tree plantation you did had also worked in our favor during the Conference. Even if we take into account the crash of the airship――A single carpet isn’t worth what you did for us.” (Radrick)

 That’s awesome, me. All of my actions were backfiring on me, and yet I got an awesome high rating, that’s so scary!
 I have to avoid this at all costs…… Rewards are proportional to your responsibilities. And the tree plantation was also a coincidence, so it wouldn’t be strange if anything could happen to it.

“I did everything on my own. If a reward must be given, it should be given to Franz-san, who has put himself on the line for Her Imperial Princess Murina all along.” (Cry)

“!? Stop it, 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》. His Majesty has offered you a reward, and it would be impolite not to accept it.” (Franz)

 I really don’t understand the world of nobility. If I may say be bold, please give me the 『True Tears (Tears of the Truth)』.

AD

“But I don’t need wealth. Nor status or honor.” (Cry)

 I remembered what Ark had told me once, that in the Rodin family, every time something happened, his title would be raised as a reward, so I added this just in case.
 I am generally satisfied with my current situation. If I could retire, that would be perfect, but that is not something the Emperor can do anything about.

 And finally, I said while being badass.

“They just corrupt your soul.” (Cry)

“As Gladys told me, what a humble man. It might also be taken as condescending though…… Now then…… If you don’t need wealth, status, or honor, then that is problematic. The only thing that remains is power, but if you are a Level 8, you already have that.” (Radrick)

 Power, heh…… If you could give it to me, I really would want it, but unfortunately, I don’t need it because I am not getting any stronger even if I get a powerful armor, and if things get out of hand, Luke and the others will be there for me.

 Please give me the 『True Tears (Tear of the Truth)』 or a behaving carpet.

 And there, Franz-san, who had been thinking with a subtle expression, opened his mouth.

“You don’t want wealth or honor, huh………… Then Your Majesty, why don’t you give him that ticket?” (Franz)

 That ticket……?
 His Majesty’s eyes widened at what Franz said, and he groaned a little.

“Aaaah, the 『Supreme Martial Arts Festival (Buteisai)』, heh…… Sure, I still had some leftover, but that is a little light to give as a reward……” (Radrick)

 It was an unexpected turn of events. But this could be good.

AD

 The 『Supreme Martial Art Festival (Buteisai)』 is one of the world’s leading martial arts tournaments. As the name implies, famous warriors from all over the world gather to compete for the title of the strongest in the world――The Supreme Martial Art Emperor.
 Just hearing that the event is not only for swordsmen but also for Magi, makes me have goosebumps but it is a very popular and flashy event. The participants include famous swordsmen, Magi, and Treasure Hunters, and it is not uncommon for people to die.
 The winner receives a cash prize and tremendous honor, and all the past winners have been famous heroes.

 However, the spectators’ tickets to the event were coveted not only by the nobles, but also by Treasure Hunters who love the words strongest, so you could never obtain Platinum Ticket without having a large network. 

 I am a half-retired Treasure Hunter, but I do love to watch a fancy fight from a safe distance. As I recall, Luke wanted to go see it, too.
 It would be a good reward. Even though it was a platinum ticket, it had nothing to do with status or honor, and the price was reasonable. Even if my screw-up was discovered later, I am sure they will forgive me if I asked just that…… I think.

“This is…… Marvelous. The 『Supreme Martial Art Festival (Buteisai)』…… I have always been interested in it. If it is possible, I wish you could give me the ticket――” (Cry)

 His Majesty frowned. If he gives something cheap, it may affect his reputation as the Emperor of a great country, but you asked me to tell you what I wanted, so please find in your heart to forgive me.
 Moreover, it is not a lie that I am interested. My certification Level is certainly high, but there are many people who have a higher certification Level than me participating in the tournament. The opportunity to witness the full power of powerful Hunters is truly rare. Watching powerful fighters in person will help 《Strange Grief (Nageki no Borei)》 make further progress.

 When His Majesty realized that I was not going to change my opinion, he said with resignation.

 

 

“……………… Alright. It is not worthy of your merit, but if you say so, then by all means. You may compete in valor to your heart’s content.” (Radrick)
