Reincarnated As An Ogre, I’m Going To Enjoy Life In This Other World! - Chapter 99

People of all races, young and old, men and women, have gathered in the square, which is the venue for the tournament. Then, standing on a platform at the back of the square, Nekichi boldly declares.

“Let the first-ever tournament begin! A rock-paper-scissors championship, with all races participating!”

When that announcement was made, cheers erupted from everyone in the square.

“Everyone seems to be having fun.”

“Yeah.”

Leia and I were watching from a distance. What I had suggested was not just a regular rock-paper-scissors game, but a tournament where everyone could participate.

People of all ages and genders could freely participate. The last race standing would have its leader become the next king. That’s how the tournament worked.

In front of us, people of all races were playing rock-paper-scissors, creating a festive atmosphere. The winners were happy, the losers disappointed, but everyone still had a smile on their face.

At that moment, Nyadal came up to us.

“Lord Kingil.”

“Nyadal, are you not participating in the rock-paper-scissors?”

“Ho ho, I lost right at the start.”

Nyadal says, laughing.

“It’s a beautiful sight. Thinking about how we’ll get to see this every year from now on makes my heart dance.”

“You’re doing this every year?”

“Yes, from now on, this will be the tournament to decide the king.”

“Well, it seems peaceful enough, doesn’t it?”

“Hmph! If you hadn’t tied, this wouldn’t have been a luck-based game, and I would have been the king again this year!”

When I looked towards the voice, I saw Nekichi.

“What’s up? Did you lose too?”

Leia looks at Nekichi with a smirk.

“Shut up!”

“Come on, don’t be like that, Nekichi. You seemed to have had quite a bit of fun too, didn’t you?”

“Grrr…”

It seemed like I hit the mark, as Nekichi could only groan.

“Ah, it looks like the match is about to be decided.”

When I looked towards the square, the last two people were playing rock-paper-scissors on the platform, and then the match ended with cheers.

The last one remaining was none other than Minya. She was crying tears of joy, and the other members of the Cat Tribe were lifting her up in celebration.

“Oh! Minya! You did it!”

Seeing that, Nyadal immediately ran off. Nekichi, though looking regretful, walked towards the frustrated Rat Tribe members with a somewhat relieved expression.

“Hey, Kingil…”

“What is it?”

Suddenly, Leia called out to me.

“So, what are you going to do now?”

“Eh? Oh… well, I came to this country, and before I knew it, I got caught up in all this commotion, so I haven’t had the chance to go sightseeing yet.”

“So, you’re staying in this country for now?”

“That’s right.”

“I see… Well, then, I’ll show you around.”

“Eh? Are you sure?”

“Yeah, I’ve been in this country for quite a while, so I can show you around.”

“Then, please, I’d appreciate it.”

“Okay.”

And so, starting tomorrow, I’ll be touring the Beast Kingdom with Leia as my guide.
