- Volume 7 Chapter 115 - I Went Through a Promotion Test Part 2
Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse
Earl’s daughter Serafiona Granzeus (about to become 17 years old) had become the Lord of Trundle.
Naturally, the Lord of Trundle must be the strongest in Trundle.
Being the strongest in Trundle means being the strongest in this world…
Is it okay for the world’s strongest woman to be an A-rank adventurer? No way!
So, finally, I, Serafiona G., am going to take the promotion test to become an S-rank adventurer that I’ve always admired!
“『『Pleaseー!!!』』”
Grandpa Sieg grinned.
“Are you ready for this? Princess?”
“Yes sir!”
◇ ◇ ◇
The dojo at the back of the guild is buzzing with excitement! It’s the first auspicious event in a long time for Trundle, which has been going through a lot of bad situations lately. The audience seats were almost full.
You’re asking if it’s safe for all these important people of Trundle to be gathered here? Don’t worry! Father had stationed Granzeus’ private army at every important point.
After all, this is like a festival. Thank you, Papa.
I really wanted grandmother to be here as well, but she’s still resting. Papa is personally guarding her.
Therefore, today’s judges are Grandpa Sieg and Gilbert-san, both of them are S-rank.
And my opponent is……
“Serafiona, fight me to the best of your ability, okay?”
It’s brother!
No one was nitpicking with the fact that it’s going to be a match between siblings.
“Serafi! Good luck!”
“Serafi! Go!”
“Miss! Don’t be beaten by the shuriken!”
“If you win, I’ll buy you your favorite skewers!”
“Lalouza-san, don’t hurt her face!”
I can hear the voices of Alma-tan, Nick, Kodak-sensei, Matt-kun, and Lara-san, as well as the sobbing of the leader grandpas and grandmas. Well, they do love and respect the Gainz & Elsa couple and this is their grandchild’s battle.
Matt-kun, I’d like you to buy me chicken skewers, but it might be……tough to win.
I can’t help but laugh when I see……my brother that has no weakness.
I’m not going to be able to get a good look at them. It’s a good thing that you’re dealing with an older brother. It has to be the most defensible one. This is not the time to be stingy.
Today’s outfit is the gray shinobi costume. After all, my opponent is brother, you know? I need the outfit with the most defensive power. This is no time to be unwilling to wear this outfit.
In contrast, brother is wearing a black shirt, black pants, and boots. He’s wearing an ordinary outfit, but seeing his appearance of brushing his hair to the back, as always, he is extremely cool!
『Sera! This is no time for you to be dazed! 』
“Oh, right.”
“Guild leader, can I have a word?”
Brother suddenly asked.
“What is it?”
“Naturally, I will do my best to fight against her, but Serafiona has a lot of work to do tomorrow. Please allow her to cast a defense spell on herself.”
Grandpa Sieg looked up at the executives in the audience seats. They all made a circle with their hands above their heads and gave the okay sign. Brother smiled.
“Thank you. Well then, Serafiona, go ahead and cast it.”
“Yes!”
To begin with, I’m already protected by Ghilane’s plate and Brother’s earrings……as I thought about that, I cast the defense spell on myself, but at the same time, Miyu-tan wrapped my whole body in a barrier that looked like a water cushion.
『Good luck, Sera-chama! 』
『Sera! Show Lalouza how much you have grown! 』
Miyu jumped from my chest and dove into the fluffiness of Lu’s back. Then they settled down and sat down in a well-behaved position at the edge of the floor where they could see all the movements.
Ash is on duty in Galle. He flew away in frustration. I’m sure he wanted to laugh while watching me lose the fight, but alas! Thank you, Ghilane!
Brother and I are facing each other in the center.
I’m not seeing brother being equipped with any weapons. That means he will use shuriken and magic. I’ll lose if there’s a distance between us!
“Get ready……………. Start!!!”
I’m dashed off as soon as it started! I instantly closed the distance between me and brother at full speed. There is no chance for me to become victorious except for the first move, which will take him by surprise. I pulled out an aurochs type of kunai from my wrist and jumped while aiming at brother’s neck.
When brother’s left arm blocked my swinging arm, I slammed my left knee towards brother’s heart. However, he dodged and my knee only hit his hard ribs.
He grabbed my leg with his right arm! I spun myself while looking at the ground, removed that arm, and took a big step backward to keep my distance from brother.
Ah……the chance that had the most potential of winning is gone…….
“Serafiona, that was a nice knee strike. But maybe because your weight is not heavy enough? The kick was light. His Majesty doesn’t seem to be feeding Serafiona a lot of food. I must protest.”
“Kyaa! Stop that!”
Brother wrinkled his brow and got a little angry! It’s a rare chance to see brother actually showing that he’s angry! Of course, his anger is not directed to me! It’s directed to Ghilane!
“I’ve got some errands to run. Let’s just get this battle over with!”
“So ominous!”
I hurriedly put my hands on the floor. It was a wooden floor, but underneath it was……found it!
I called up the sand all at once and instantly burned it! It was the hot sand that Lu taught me!!! The hot sand surrounded brother with such a high density that it almost suffocated him. Brother tried to blow it away with wind magic, but I’ve already expected that. I have raised the mass of the sand so that it won’t easily scatter! I haven’t told brother about the hot sand. It’s his first time looking at this. It should be difficult for him to quickly avoid this!
“Guhh!”
“Brother! Just surrender now!”
Brother’s shuriken flew out of the sand! Each of the shurikens had wind to propel itself……one after another flew out……more than 100 shurikens flew out! As expected, the sand’s density had fallen! The shurikens stabbed into the ground and surrounded me. It’s a lie, right? He calculated it first before throwing the shurikens? Then electricity was produced from brother’s left hand and all the shurikens fell from the sky towards the ground. It connected itself to the sides and became a web. A cage of lightning that trapped me!
“Serafi!”
“Serafi got trapped!”
“Miss! Use your shuriken to break Lalouza’s stance!”
“Miss! Fighting!”
This is…… similar to the spell that Ghilane used in the magic competition that brother participated in the past……brother, are you trying to tell me that I was caught by Ghilane? You’re such a tease!
『Tsk! She’s outnumbered』
『……Lalouza-chama, how did you hide that many shurikens? 』
But, you know, even though I was a little girl at that time, I clearly remember the match! I also remember how brother broke through this technique!
I pulled out a small knife that I rarely use out of my ankle. Then, I instantly clothed it in lightning. Then I threw it from the net using my right hand that is out of the reach of brother’s long legs and stabbed it into the ground!
The electricity that had been extending from my brother’s palm to the shuriken, all at once, went towards the knife that I threw. The flow changed!
The electricity became one thick pillar…… in a straight line towards the knife!
“……I see, silver huh?”
The knife that I threw was made out of pure silver. Silver is the best conductor out of anything you can get your hands on in this world. Electricity is attracted to the things that have a high affinity with it. An aurochs horn shuriken is not a match for pure silver.
“That’s a good idea, Serafiona……oh?”
“Huh?”
『Hey……』
『Oh no…….』
Bachi…….bachibachi……bachi!
Sparks flew from the pillar of electricity that was gathered on the knife …… dense sparks flew in the atmosphere…… and the heated sand and dust……catched on fire……
Bachiiiiin!!! Boom!
A huge explosion happened!
◇ ◇ ◇
The next thing I knew I being protected in brother’s arms.
When I lifted my head, I could hear the sounds of birds chirping, and the winter sky was clear and blue……
The roof was blown off.
『It’s a dust explosion……』
Oh, in my previous life, I heard that lightning struck a flour cellar and it exploded……some stories like that were on the news every now and then……it was that…….
In the nick of time, Lu and Miyu put up a defensive spell, so fortunately no one was injured.
However, the people of Trundle who were there, both old and young, had an afro hair. Matt-kun is sorrowfully crying because his prided proud mohawk hairstyle became curly.
“Let’s just……give princess……an S-rank evaluation.”
Gilbert-san with an afro stared off into the distance.
“That’s true……we can no longer……measure the princess’ strength ……”
Even Grandpa Sieg with his poofy afro said that with a sigh.
“ “ “ “ “No objection………..” ” ” ” ”
The rest of the crowd, many of whom have an afro, agreed although they were still at a loss.
The S-rank must be unanimously decided.
『Sera? Ummmmm……congratulations? 』
Lu was evolving into an even fluffier mofumofu.
『Congratulations? Sera-chama? 』
Miyu originally light azure fur and mane was curled up.
Both I and brother looked like the Black Thunderstorm-sama in my previous life, and I was charged 8 million gold for the repair of the roof by Thunderstorm Lara-san.
◇ ◇ ◇ ◇
I’m finally at the pinnacle of adventurers, S-rank, Trundle platinum plate holder.
……But why? Why can’t I be sincerely happy about this???
Author sama knows that dust explosions primarily happen with combustible materials… Right?? They used flour as the example for real-world cases, but flour which is primarily hydrocarbon is far more combustible than sand which is usually 90% or more silica. Now, that’s entirely different if some other reaction was supposedly taking place, but shocking silica with electricity does not induce an exothermic reaction to grow exponentially as is necessary in a dust explosion.
