chapter 38: arm wrestling (2)
gerda comes down from the living room to the mud room. he’s big, so when they lie down facing each other, a part of his body sticks out from the dirt floor. that’s when the arm-wrestling with gerda begins.
(well, can i win?)

for this day, i changed all the cards to f-rank beasts. i have also raised my level to 6.
thanks to the hunt of dozens of albaherons, there is no one in this village who doesn’t know allen. he completely stood out.
i also watched all the boar hunting. of course, i didn’t just watch but observe. now i also instruct serfs and commoners on how to hunt. the new armor for hunt will be ready this fall under my supervision.
i don’t remember ever holding hands with him so tightly before.
......
rodan also seemed to want to say something.
“it’s been years since i’ve held my son’s hands.”
his hands, which he has been digging every day in the field, were very rough. i felt an emotion that i couldn’t quite explain to other people.
i took a glance at theresia. she is desperately hoping for rodan’s victory. if rodan loses, allen will be allowed to hold a spear and participate in the hunt this fall. and theresia definitely didn’t want that to happen.
therefore, theresia was not supporting allen at all.
“okay, start!”
“hmph!!!”
with the signal to begin, both of them put all their strength into it.
blood vessels rise from rodan’s muscles. his face turns red and he puts all his strength into it.
(oh, man, this could be bad. seriously? he is very strong.)
(rodan is more powerful than i thought.)
allen switched all of his cards to f-rank beasts and increased his strength from 115, to 265, but rodan was still more powerful.
slowly, allen was being pushed down. he started losing.
he was defeated with little to show for his efforts. it looks like a complete defeat.
“ooh!”
allen was defeated, and a surprised voice went up.
rodan, not being a man of his age, made a strong bump on his arm and declared victory. apparently, he was quite happy to have beaten allen.
(gah! it’s totally impossible. does he have like 250 or 300 strength?)
he guessed rodan’s strength is based on his experiences of going through hard situations.
since i’m defeated, i maturely give him the alcohol from the wooden barrel.
“alcohol!!!!”
rodan and gerda take it without any hesitation. they pour a wooden cup full of alcohol for each other. rodan looks like he’s enjoying his victory against his son.
(probably according to the ability values of the appraisal ceremony, father has c in strength and gerda has d..)
i wanted to check the strength of those who leveled up in normal mode. if you hunt magical beasts, your level will increase. i wanted to know how strong the ones who leveled up in normal mode would be.
in this arm-wrestling match, i found out that it was not difficult to exceed 200 strength even without talent.
“hey, that’s not very mature!”
mithilda scolded rodan and gerda for being so unapologetically happy.
“yes, allen. you’re so strong.”
(hmm?)
theresia consoled me. apparently, she thought that allen, who was analyzing the strength, was depressed. but theresia seemed to be happy that allen lost.
“yes, your father is strong, you know. if you can’t beat him, you’re not allowed to hunt boars.” said theresia.
”if you want to hunt boars, you have to beat me.” rodan said. he was already drunk and his cheeks were red.
(oh! i’ve got your word. if i get to summon level 4 by the fall, i still have a chance. )
(dad, later on don’t tell me you were too drunk to remember.)
all right, i’ll give up hunting boars until i can beat dad.
allen pretends to give up with just his face and words.
thus, the confrontation between father and son ended with rodan’s victory.
