บท 108: Main Event

After paying the bill at the restaurant, the group went to a nearby pub called Drunken Ring. However, the pub was just a front. In actuality, it was a fighting ring as well as a gambling den.

The professors from the academy of course knew about it, but they decided to overlook it. Students needed some sort of enjoyment after all. Besides, nothing illegal was going on here.

The entry manager was a middle-aged Rank 1 Magus. He wore fancy robes and welcomed the students inside the pub after they'd paid a fee.

When he saw Adam coming here with his friends, his eyes lit up. "Magus Adam! Are you going to participate today?"

"Nope." Adam waved his hand. Then he pointed at Edward. "But he will."

The manager was initially dejected, but when he heard Edward would be participating, he beamed. "Great! Tonight's going to be interesting. I'll make sure to set things up accordingly."
