Tanuki Rise of the Yokai Clan

Chapter 126: The battle that will decide everything



Chapter 126: The battle that will decide everything

Camilla was helpless, and Julis was no longer angry since she had gotten used to Ernesta. By now, they wondered how many times Ernesta had proposed to Tamazuki to get married. They might have lost the count since the number was too much.

"If you do, then you can also get Camilla," Ernesta added.

"..." Tamazuki.

Yet, strangely enough, Camilla didn't complain as usual, causing Julis and Ernesta to look in her direction.

"Why-Why are you two looking at me at the same time?" Camilla lost her calm.

"Nothing." 2x

Ernesta and Julis stared at Tamazuki at the same time and thought that this guy was good, so good that he could seduce Camilla. Still, this wasn't the time for them to talk about Camilla.

"So... what do you think?" Ernesta asked, but strangely enough, he could hear her chirpy, confidence-like voice become slightly depressed.

"Sure."

"Eh?"2x

This time Julis and Camilla lost their calm.

"Really?!" Ernesta looked at him happily.

"What are you saying!?" Julis looked at Tamazuki in surprise, and she lost her demeanor. Usually, this guy would ignore Ernesta, but why did this guy suddenly accept Ernesta's proposal? More importantly, how could this guy say that when he often suggestively expressed that she would become his main wife?!

"Calm down."

"I CAN'T!"

"......" His body was shaking hard by Julis.

"Princess, isn't that clear? He is charmed by my beauty!" Ernesta said with a laugh.

"..." 2x

"No."

"..." 3x

"Th-then, why? Is it because of my talent? My bright mind?"

"..." 3x

Tamazuki, Julis, and Camilla had to say this girl was so narcissistic.

"No, because I can tell you are serious, so like how you face me with your feelings, I will face you seriously too." He patted Ernesta's head gently and then looked at her helplessly. "But I hope that you don't use this way to make me marry you."

"Ah, um..." Ernesta, for the first time, blushed shyly.

"Julis, let's go. Let's win."

"Un!"

As expected... Julis thought with a smile as she followed him to the stage, but then she realized this guy also wanted to take down Ernesta, causing her to want to bite him.

Watching his back, Ernesta stared at him and then looked at Camilla. "Camilla, do you think I am wrong to propose to him to marry like this?

"Well... at least you should try to go on a date and make him fall in love with you normally instead of using this method to make him marry you." Camilla could tell that Tamazuki took Ernesta's feelings directly and no longer dismissed it as a joke, but she had to say for their relationship to be settled as the result of this match... she had to say it was rather wrong.

Ernesta was in silence as if trying to fathom those words.

"Then, it's decided!"

"Huh?"

Yet, Ernesta had always been Ernesta. It was impossible for her to follow how normal people did. She wasn't even depressed. Instead, she was more excited.

"Once I win, I will make him fall in love with me for real!"

"....."

"Then, by then, I will make him say "I love you" from that mouth of his!"

Ernesta had made up her mind, and she was going to do it!

"....."

Camilla had to say she was a bit jealous of Ernesta's optimism.

"So you, too, do your best!" Ernesta smiled at Camilla.

"...."

It might be too late to say this, but Camilla was glad that Ernesta was the person who had saved her.

"Still, I wonder how his expression will be when he hears our child call him." Ernesta showed a mischievous smile.

"You have a bad hobby." Strangely enough, Camilla also laughed, but she didn't intend to stop Ernesta since it was a good punishment for this scoundrel.

Like the rest, Amagiri and Saya also watched the semi-final match since they knew if they won the final, they would face either Ardy and Rimcy or Tamazuki and Julis.

"Ayato, those puppets..."

"Yeah..." Amagiri's expression became dignified. "They have been using Amagiri Style."

"..." Saya.

If it was only a simple puppet with a unique AI system and the most advanced weapons, then they might not fear anything, yet those puppets also mastered the Amagiri Style, a style they had been training during their childhood.

"Moreover, their mastery is even better than mine. They have reached a master's level." Amagiri's expression became even more dignified.

"....." Saya.

It was because they had trained in this style of martial art that they knew how strong it was, especially when they recalled how they were so helpless in front of Amagiri's big sister.

"Then..."

"Yeah." Amagiri nodded. "It will be difficult for Julis to win." While he hated to say this, he could hardly believe that Julis would win.

"I see..."

Saya voiced her doubt, but she didn't argue with Amagiri. She could tell that the result wouldn't be as Amagiri imagined. She might not have realized this, but she had resistance toward Amagiri when Amagiri told her that Tamazuki would lose.

Not only Amagiri and Saya, but many people watched this match since the result of this match would decide their attitude toward certain someone.

At the entrance of the stage, he stopped as he saw Irene and Priscilla.

"Beat them hard!"

"Don't give them mercy, Tamazuki-san!"

"......"

Tamazuki looked at Priscilla and Irene speechlessly, but he knew why they reacted this way. He patted their heads and said, "Then, I will go first."

"Un." 2x

The two nodded as they saw him enter the stage.

As he entered the stage, he saw Ardy and Remcy.

"I don't expect those puppets to be so strong."

"That's true."

"Isn't it because of you?" Julis rolled her eyes. The reason Ardy and Remcy were so strong was, without a doubt, the bastard next to her.

"It's okay since we're the ones who are going to win."

"Yes."

This guy might be hateful, but she had to say everything about him was reassuring.

As they entered the stage, Ardy and Remcy saw Tamazuki and Julis for the first time, but instead of staring at Julis, the two of them stared at Tamazuki intensely.

Meanwhile, while Tamazuki felt weird, he also observed them.

Ardy was like a robot. He was like a Gundam in human size.

As for Remcy, she was like an android. Even if some parts of her body were like a machine, her face was like a beauty. No one could tell that she was a puppet if no one had announced that fact.

He wasn't sure why Ernesta made Remcy this way, but he was sure many people might order Remcy because of novelty and... other certain reasons. Yet he almost staggered when he heard the words that came out from their mouth.

"Father, finally, we have met you," Ardy sounded so excited.

"Father..." Remcy's voice was rather soft, but she was also excited.

"...Father?" Julis looked at Tamazuki suspiciously.

However, Tamazuki doesn't care about Julis now. "Did you just call me Father?"

"Yes." 2x

"...why?"

"Because you are also our creator."

"That's right. Mother has told us to call you a Father."

'Ernesta...'

---

"Hahaha..."

Ernesta and Camilla laughed when they saw Tamazuki's expression, especially when they saw how awkward Tamazki's expression was.

---

Tamazuki sighed. "I am not your father."

"No, you are! You have made us stronger."

"That's right."

"No, even if I have helped you to make you stronger. Don't call me a Father, at least in this match."

"Why?" 2x

The two were confused.

"That way, you won't be able to use your all, and you might shame your other creators, so right now, you need to do your best, or else, you won't have a chance to do anything."

Tamazuki opened his blazer and took out a hammer shape of Lux.

Julis was the same and had already readied her weapon.

Similarly, hearing his words, Remcy and Ardy also prepared since they knew among all the contestants, without a doubt, their Father was the strongest, especially when he was the one who gave them all the knowledge and experience of fighting in their data memory.

Tamazuki might match Ardy's weapon, but no one thought he was underestimating Ardy. Instead, they thought it was a good handicap as Tamazuki was too strong. After all, unlike Amagiri, most people thought he would win since not everyone was like Amagiri, who believed in the Amagiri Style.

"Then, Father, we will defeat you here." 2x

"...don't call me Father, okay?"

When this battle ended, he was going to slap Ernesta's buttocks later.

Still, everyone was already impatient to watch their match, and they wanted to see who was stronger.

Demon King or the Robots.

Then, without making anyone wait, the match started.

"BEGIN!"

Ardy and Tamazuki moved at the same time and slammed their hammers at the same time.

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!*
