Chapter 87.3
Early the next morning, as I was scraping meat and fat off the fur of the Nudlok, Lambert and the others arrived.
Were they inviting me outside?
Even though I had just been there yesterday, I could use more magic stones.
All my attempts failed...
After ushering the two of them in, we exchanged greetings and surveyed the table's contents.
"Is that yesterday's Nudlok?"
"Yeah, I'm in the middle of the preparation. It doesn't seem like you're going out, though—"
Lambert and the others were dressed casually, each carrying a small sword.
"It's the Birthday Celebration. We thought we might go together."
"I heard it's in March though."
In Selene, from February to mid-March, the Alpha's Birthday Celebration takes place.
It's only been about a month since the New Year, so many people are still in a festive mood.
However, there aren't any special events during the Birth Festival.The debut release of this chapter happened at Ñøv€l-B1n.
There are performances and orchestras here and there, and on the day of the main event in March, the Council offers congratulatory words, and like during the New Year, magic displays are allowed.
But theater and orchestras aren't Lambert's style.
I wonder where he plans to go.
"It's fine if you go... Want to check out the stalls?"
"Are you a student at the academy? Don't forget about the martial arts tournament."
It might be harsh to pit them against each other.
However, even after hearing all of this, my heart remained unmoved.
They're only around D-rank adventurers, even if they are 4th and 5th years,
It would be much more beneficial for me to fight monsters in the forest than watch such a match.
I also want magic stones.
Well, they invited me, so I should at least watch it once.
Even at D-rank, there might be something to gain.
Oh, I forgot. There was one exception.
"Harvis-san will participate too, right?"
The swordsman I met during the first-term outdoor exercise.
He had the strength of an upper-ranked C-rank adventurer.
Upon hearing my question, Lambert looked exasperated.
"Of course. He's vying for a three-time consecutive victory."
"Impressive. Well then, I'll watch. Harvis-san, too."
"Watch the other seniors too. After all, the honor of the academy is at stake."
For some reason, Lambert shook his head.
Even if he says that I only know Tobias apart from him.
