Cheat na Kaineko no Okage de Rakuraku Level Up Chapter 18

Chapter 18: A cold sweat battle

The duel is set for 2 hours later.

Although the capital is a modern city, there are still some empty patches of field inside the city.
It reduces injuries by fighting on soft surface. Well, Misha is unlikely to be injured anyway so all is fine.

We spend our time loitering in a small alley nearby.
As Misha is now more eye-catching in her human form, it is better for us to remain in the alley to keep out prying eyes.

[Well~ then~, how far should I sent them flying?]
Misha is already sure of her victory. It naturally became this way since she holds the overwhelming strength.

[Is it fine to standout so much?]

[That's right, as long as you understand it. Speaking of which…]
There is something that I would like to confirm.

[What do you choose to wager?]

For example, even something like [Honor] could also be used as the stake.

I immediately tried to refute that statement.
[That, isn’t that almost all our money after purchasing the grimoire!?]

[But look from another perspective, we can earn another 3 million coins after winning the duel]

[Although we already managed to obtain the grimoire, we still need to have more money. We need to save more money in order to buy our love nest]

[That's right. If we managed to get another 3 million coins, we can buy an even better love nest] (T.L Vomiting in progress)

Misha voice suddenly became softer.

Even her body began shrinking —

All that remain is her long robe.

[Misha!]
I screamed out loudly in surprise.

Don’t tell me, the side effects of the magic will cause Misha to melt…

[Nya~]

Misha appears in her black cat form from underneath of her robe.

[What! Please don’t surprise me so much!]

[It seem, there is a time limit to the transformation magic. As yesterday was my first time using it, it seems the time limit is 12 hours. It is impossible to achieve 24-hour transformation] (T.L Noooooooo, Misha core is still a cat and not a human)
[Maa~, it will be fine as long as you use it again]

[However, there is something troubling]

[I am more fatigue than expected. If I do not rest for another 2 hours, I do not have the confidence to perform another transformation]
[Maa~, just slowly rest in your cat form… Ah!]

Isn’t that the time for our duel!?

————————————————————————————————————————–

2 hours later.

Since there is no other choice, I carried Misha in her cat form and head towards the battlefield.

[Are~, where is that beastkin girl?]
Of course the one who spoke up is the man with the largest build.

[That, she is currently missing…]

It seems the other party is slightly surprised.

[As expected, it is impossible for her to face all of us alone so she chickened out]

[Th, that might be the case… but I do not know the details]

In any case, I tried stalling for as much time as possible.

[In that case, would you subst.i.tute on her behalf, Onii-san? We would also accept this arrangement]

It is impossible for a Lv 15 to take on 5 people in one go. Furthermore, there are 2 rank B within them and their level surely must be above 20.

[Aria-jouchan, so what should we do?]

[I see… the rule in this case is…]

Aria-san showed me an apologetic look.

We will lose 3 million coins!!!

[S, sorry! I need to go to the washroom!]

[Oi, we have an emergency! What should we do now!]
[I know… Although it is slightly risky, I managed to come up with a strategy. Let's go out now]

After confirming the strategy, I headed towards where the other adventurers are.

The man with huge build said this.

[Hahaha! I did not ran away!]

It seems they are trying to confirm whether the cat is actually speaking.
In actual fact, she is currently speaking right now.

If a talking cat became a commotion, at that time it will —

Yup, the scenario we created is that Misha transformed into a cat.

[No, there are 5 of us here as your opponent. It is better for you to fight as a normal magician]

[I understand. Don’t come up crying!]
It seems that the opponent accepted our story.

[Ano~… she might receive heavy injuries in that form. Is the still alright?]

[Yes, there is no problem! That magician is extremely strong]
[I understand… Well then, let the duel commence!]

[Neko punch!]
Misha shouted her technique.

The man with the huge build is immediately sent flying.

The enemy mage attempted to use a fire spell in this time —

[Neko punch!]

All the remaining enemies were sent flying by neko punch.

[M. magic… not using?…]

The man with huge build retorted despite being knocked down. Just how much do you want to retort]

The spectators viewing the duel is praising Misha [Amazing!].

And with this, Misha obtained a flawless victory in her cat form.

[Congratulations]

[Nya~]

[Ano~, could you return to your human form and say a few words to all the spectators?]
Aria-san, what are you saying all of a sudden?

[I, I understand…]
I entered a nearby washroom together with Misha.

And 3 minutes later…

[With my power, of course it is easy to obtain the victory!]
Misha wave to the spectator while wearing her long robe in human form.

As it will cause further fatigue, Misha swiftly returned to her cat form in a nearby toilet after this.

[It is extremely tiring today… The transformation magic cost more power than expected. After this, the fatigue will kick in]

[Maa, we now understand the limitation of the transformation magic]
[However, we also obtained a huge loot today]

Ahh, she is referring to the wager.

[Tomorrow, let's go find a good house!]
