"Anyway, it hasn't even been five minutes into the event when you can see how the situation is interesting to say the least, this year we have several famous figures among the participants, first we have the one that all the demons should fear and who has nightmares just remembering her, I'm talking about the only ruthless, The demon slayer Hazel!" A shout rang out from the crowd as everyone turned their gazes towards the smiling Hazel who seemed to be throwing beans with a precision and force that didn't seem normal. "Everyone knows her fame, but for the clueless, she will always be remembered for eliminating more than half of the demons that participate in the event, her dexterity and strength are enough to turn beans into deadly weapons and if you have the too bad to get hit by a failed dish from her, well, you'll be lucky if you just end up passed out! And never better said, it looks like the first victim has fallen!"
At that precise moment, it could be seen how an unlucky guy had been hit and knocked out by the same plate that Blake had previously dodged, and this was not thrown by someone other than Hazel who was still with a huge smile on her face.
'Isn't this against the rules, that guy has foam coming out of his mouth right now, I highly doubt he's okay!' But despite his thoughts, the atmosphere of the festival didn't diminish at all.
"That looks really bad, will it be alright?" Pia asked the question that was on everyone's mind at the time, but Sakuya was already one step ahead of her.
"Don't worry, the wounded will be quickly taken care of by our trusty village nurses, Marjorie and Marian!... Although we already know, the cure is sometimes not very pleasant." Everyone gulped when noticing how a light blue-haired girl was in the background too excited hugging a huge syringe and quickly taking away the poor victim from before. "Well, let's continue with the presentations! Oh, who would say it, it seems that this year the great Iron man Gaius is not part of the demons, it is always incredible to see the resistance he has, despite having received on one occasion eight failed dishes by the demon slayer Hazel, he still stood up until the end, although reaching the final with no points may have been a miscalculation on his part!"
"Perhaps this is good news for the victims of last year, the smell of iron was in the air for several days!" Pia's smile was a bit off as she said all that.
"It's true, I still remember the screams of pain, it's not something I want to keep in my memory! But let's forget the past and focus on what happens this time! The event continued its course in all this time and you can see that it has not been in vain, many demons have already been victims of the disastrously failed dishes while the others continue to receive the impacts of the beans and...! Wow, who would say it, it seems that a new face is standing out from all, ladies and gentlemen let me introduce the one who's in the lead so far he came to town days ago but he seems to have gotten used to it overnight, with his blonde hair and luck that even the gods would envy, focus your eyes on the Tree boy, Blake!" Although the situation seemed to be very pleasant and fun for everyone, Blake was not having an amazing time.
At first, he was able to calm down, he began to let himself be hit by the beans that he saw coming toward him and dodge the failed dishes, but as time passed and more demons were eliminated, everything became complicated.
'Am I going first? Well, I never really planned on winning, but even though the beans hurt a bit and I don't want to end up with a failed dish on my face, I'm really having fun.' Blake was really focused on what he was doing, he could see how the beans flew and he himself ran towards them to be hit, and although he did not know it, he was unconsciously using rök to feel his surroundings and notice everything that was happening.
"Oh, it's good to see you here, Blake." Blake quickly noticed how the village cook came to his side as they struck up a conversation despite all the projectiles coming at them, but this didn't seem to bother either of them.
"Hello to you too Blaise, I didn't think the event would turn into all this."
"Haha, the final part is always the most exciting, I see you're still in the lead, you better not loosen up or I'll take first place this time."
"I'll do my best to make sure that doesn't happen." As he finished his little competitive statement, Blake refocused on everything that was coming and started to grab most of the brown beans that were thrown but were again interrupted when a new voice came through to his ears.
"Rainbow! You are here too, dear assistant, your movements carry an aura of pure art that makes my hands tingle, but don't think that's why I will give up, there is still the final part and it will be my victory pass!"
"Good to see you, Daria, and… what do you mean end part?"
"I don't want to spoil the surprise for you, you better prepare yourself or you'll look like a bad painting, good luck." Blake was still confused after the town artist walked away while still yelling strange things, but his bewilderment was resolved once he heard what Sakuya just yelled.
"Very well, the time has run and the demons were gradually defeated by the unstoppable villagers, we have reached the final stage and the score has not changed much, we can see that the tree boy continues to dominate and the other participants do everything possible to reach it, but the final surprise is enough for the situation to turn 180 degrees since the leader of all the villagers was finally released! Her lies of hers are truly sweeter than honey, but her throwing is too bitter to taste, the one who carries around the most dangerous object in this world, I speak of the Goddess of Poisons! Sofia!" At that moment, the group of villagers seemed to separate as an elegant girl with violet hair slowly advanced while in her hands could be seen a plate with a substance even less appetizing than the one in the failed dishes and that gave off an aura that gave chills to anyone who was nearby while on her face, she showed a beautiful smile that could captivate anyone who saw her.
