#603 Launch of a New Organization
🕑 Added 2023-01-09 19:31:45 +0000 UTCWe stand idly, time slipping through our fingers, with no definite decision regarding the graduation test.
Thereupon, a visitor dropped by, so I put the matter aside and concentrated on dealing with them first.
And our visitor was...
“How have you been, Lord Saint?”
Pink Tonton, the S-class adventurer.
She is a boar therianthrope, and although she has a pig-like nose, her overall appearance is that of a good-natured country belle.
She has a tough physique, as evidenced by her background as a former mercenary, and burly arms and legs comparable to a man’s. Her arms, thick as logs, look like they could snap necks.
Despite her robust and masculine physique, you can never mistake her gender because her feminine features still shine through.
Most notably, her chest.
Not only is she strong, but she is gorgeous and sociable.
These qualities have enabled her to rise to the rank of S-class in a short period of time, just a year or two after switching professions.
Her promotion was one of the measures taken to minimize the confusion caused by the influx of mercenaries who lost their jobs post-war and entered the adventuring industry.
In other words, she’s the most political of the S-class adventurers.
Her presence has brought the former mercenaries-turned-adventurers together and minimized friction with others.
In a sense, she could also be called the most significant S-class adventurer.
What brings such a character here at our farm today?
“I’m finally starting up my organization!”
Huh?
What do you mean?
“I’m launching a fighting organization!”
You’re an adventurer, right?
And not to mention, of the highest class.
How did fighting come into the picture?
Does that mean there are other fighters in the group besides you?
Even though you’re an adventurer?
Even though you’re an ADVENTURER?!
“It all started with a match with Lady Glasya at the Dragon Emperor’s castle.”
“Oh, that...!”
Looking back, it was really a spur-of-the-moment event.
The actual dungeon competition was supposedly meant for the adventurers, but for some reason, a serious match broke out between Pink Tonton and Demon Queen Glasya.
What triggered it was the rivalry between them, who were the strongest members of their respective groups.
This sudden competition became so heated that it overshadowed the main event, but overall, it was still a great success.
Now, it brings back good memories.
“I came up with the idea based on that. I thought that if we made a spectacle of such fights, we could make a lot of money!”
“Ahh.”
“I called on all kinds of people to help me put this idea into action, and now, things are slowly coming to fruition. I would tour around the world, invite people to the venue, and build an elevated arena where they could see the action unfold!”
“Is that perhaps...?!”
Even if she doesn’t finish what she’s saying, I’m beginning to get the gist of what Mr. Pinkerton is trying to do.
“I’ve decided to take on a third job, after mercenary and adventurer! I will debut as Martial Artist Pink Tonton!”
“Ohh!”
Clap, clap, clap...
...Wait, huh?
I subconsciously clapped my hands, but that story had nothing to do with me.
I’m going to go out on a limb here and guess how I’m involved...
The answer my brain cells came up with is...!
“I see, you want me to produce the event, huh?”
Me, the saint!
As an otherworlder, I have utilized my world’s knowledge to produce various successful events.
Now, I am asked to exercise that wisdom again!
You want me to help you to make your wrestling show a success, don’t you?
“That’s not it.”
“Oh, it’s not?”
Huh.
“We have already solicited enough ideas from our collaborators to make the show successful. In particular, Brown Kato has given us several groundbreaking ideas. We already have our hands full just putting them to practical use!”
Oh, right!
Kato, who is in the Adventurer’s Guild, is also an otherworlder, just like me!
He and I are like soulmates, talking about the boom years of the Showa era!
Yeah, he can propose similar ideas that originated from our world.
Is this a sign that my reason of being is getting overshadowed?!
“W-What brings you here, then...?”
“Oh, yes. It’s because there are things that only I can ask you, Lord Saint!”
There we go!
I knew it, there are things only I can do!
Let me hear ‘em. It’s my greatest pleasure to be needed!
“As a matter of fact, both the Adventurer’s Guild and the Demon King’s Army are very supportive of my idea. They think it’s a good start to solving the problems plaguing today’s world.”
Huh? She’s going to start talking from the very beginning?
Where does my part come in?
“The adventuring industry is saturated with mercenaries who have switched careers. However, the interaction between the humans and the demons is still not good enough among the common people. Both organizations agreed that a wrestling show would be the perfect way to improve this situation.”
“Uh-huh...”
What do you want me to do then?
“That is why I decided to start a fighting organization. I need to do it on a larger scale and with a larger group of people, or it won’t become an alternative to hire adventurers from the dungeons nor be the talk of the world.”
“I see.”
And...?
“That’s why I came to ask for your help, Lord Saint!”
“Okay! What is it?”
Here it comes! Drumroll...
“Can we borrow Lady Letasreit?!”
“Huh?!”
“I wrestled with her in my previous visit. Despite her small stature, she boasts such immense power and fighting sense! She has the makings of a star player with her bright and dazzling appearance! I would like to talk to her about teaming up with our organization.”
“Aha, I see...!”
So, she’s not here to directly ask for my help...
No, I shouldn’t be discouraged because of that.
It’s nice to be able to help people in any possible way.
Moreover, the project Pink Tonton is promoting is not just for personal gain but for the world’s benefit as a whole.
I don't mind being a mediator if I can support such a wonderful project!
* * *
Thus, I brought Letasreit.
As usual, she was tending to her beans in the field before I asked her to come with me.
“............Okay.”
When I told her about the situation, she readily gave her consent.
Such a reliable girl she is.
“I’ve been wanting to do something new for a while. Something new to try to spread beans around the world.”
Her obsession with beans is as intense as ever.
“Lots of people will be coming to see that program, right? This is my chance to spread the word about how great beans are! I’d love to be part of it.”
“Thank you so much!”
And so, Letasreit decided to participate in the wrestling show because of her ambition.
To begin with, she’s the princess of the Human Kingdom, so she is endowed with a sense of royalty and other innate qualities that garner attention.
In addition, Letasreit has become one of the world’s strongest people through the power of beans, so it’s as good as guaranteed that she’ll become a star player.
After all, a princess is born different from the rest of us!
...Wait.
Princess?
“Isn’t that bad?”
Letasreit is the princess of the Human Kingdom that lost the war.
Through the Demon King’s benevolence, it was decided that our farm would shelter her instead of disposing of the entire clan as war criminals.
After all, we’re isolated from the outside world.
“Wouldn’t it be a disaster if you become the center of attraction in Pink Tonton’s pro wrestling show?”
“WHAAAAAAAAAAAT?!” exclaim Letasreit and Pink Tonton.
“Aw, no... Just when I was getting all motivated and fired up, now this!”
“Can’t something be done about this, Lord Saint? We absolutely need Letasreit to be our organization’s star player!”
They plead.
Are they perhaps...relying on me?
If so, I can’t not live up to their expectations! Allow the great Saint Kidan to solve all your problems!
“It’s okay! All Letasreit needs to do is to be able to get into the ring while keeping her identity hidden!”
Luckily for you, wrestling has the perfect mechanism for such a situation—masks!
By wearing a mask, you become a mysterious masked wrestler!
“If the mask obscures your face, no one will know your true identity! You can go into the ring and remain anonymous! You’ll be a masked woman, Letasreit!”
“Ohh, kinda like a bean! I like it!”
With all this excitement, Pink Tonton’s new fighting organization moves forward to its main event.
If only the preparations for the graduation test also went as smoothly as this...
