「そういや、出場者の俺達も賭けには参加できるんだな」
「みたいだね。自分達に賭ければ?」
「その前に、今の賭け率とかどうなってんのか知りたいんだが」
「おお、私も知りたい! 私達は何番人気なのだ!?」
俺達のその言葉に、秀平は気まずそうに目を逸らした。
おい、まさか......。
「お、俺の口からは何とも......公式のオッズを見るといいよー。ほら」
そう言って秀平は公式サイトを表示したタブレットを渡してきた。
嫌な予感がするが、取り敢えず見てみよう。
「あー......上から見ていくと見事に名前が無い――あ、あった。これだ」
「八位......倍率49倍......っておおい! 一番下ではないか!」
「う、うん」
何だこの酷い順位は。
はっきりと突き付けられた数字は残酷で、俺達が優勝すると思っているプレイヤーはほとんど居ないようだ。
まだ戦ってもいないのに妙に敗北感があるんだが。
未祐と秀平の分を出した後、自分の湯飲みにお茶を注いで飲むと普段よりもちょっと渋い味がした。
「当人である俺が言っちゃなんだが、秀平。本当に大丈夫か? こんなのに大金を賭けちゃって。完全に大穴狙いになってるけど」
「ちょっと後悔してる......で、でもわっちが何とかしてくれるし? きっと大丈夫! 当たればデカいし!」
「そう言われてもな......」
「しかし納得いかん! 秀平、何がどうしてこういう流れになっているのだ!? 詳しく教えろぉ!」
「それも掲示板を見た方が早いかなあ......。優勝を予想するスレがあるんだけど、ちょっと待ってね......あ、はい。これ見たら大体分かると思う」

立ておつー
それにしても一位に賭ける旨味少ねえなあ
6:名無しの神官 ID:BAxfMw5
しかも配当金の倍率まだ下がりそうなのが
最終的に1.2倍とかになりそう
7:名無しの魔導士 ID:NSZe6h7
グループAの決勝が圧巻だったかんね
二対一になってから一人で試合をひっくり返すんだもん
8:名無しの弓術士 ID:jBsCZa2
アルベルトのオッサンは色々とオカシイ
そしてフィリアちゃんはカワイイ
9:名無しの軽戦士 ID:TphkGPw
あの筋肉ダルマとどういう関係なんだ
幼女、というか小学生くらいにしか見えないけど......娘?
10:名無しの弓術士 ID:SnzsbLX
まさかぁ、全然似てないじゃん
11:名無しの神官 ID:Gn4RuKR
奥さんが美人ならワンチャン
それに意外と目元は似てるよ。可能性はある......と、思う
12:名無しの魔導士 ID:KwNgwXF
真偽は分からんが大斧を振り回す少女はロマン
野郎ばかりになるかと思いきや、女性プレイヤーが意外と残っていて私は嬉しい
13:名無しの重戦士 ID:urQQUmy
えーと......フィリアちゃん、ローゼちゃん、アイリスちゃん
お嬢様に勇者ちゃん、それとワルターちゃんか。六人だな!
14:名無しの弓術士 ID:SnzsbLX
あれ? 今何か混ざらなかった?
15:名無しの騎士 ID:PWhc8rf
俺は何も見ていない
16:名無しの軽戦士 ID:X7UXVd7
ワルターチャンハショートカットノカワイイオンナノコダヨ!
ホントダヨ!
17:名無しの武闘家 ID:gzDg469
リプレイ動画で簡易プロフィールを二度見したのは俺だけじゃないはずw
あんなの詐欺だよ、詐欺
18:名無しの重戦士 ID:8wPUixb
ふぅ、断トツでビリの勇者ちゃんと本体さんに賭けてきたぜ
前イベの再現頼む......頼む!
19:名無しの魔導士 ID:bTSiSWA
前イベって、勇者ちゃんはダメランだっけ?
20:名無しの重戦士 ID:8wPUixb
19 そうそう
最終日に本体さんがサクリファイスかまして、勇者ちゃんがアルベルトから一位を奪ったんよ
21:名無しの騎士 ID:23J84Pg
でも、どうかなぁ? 一位と二位の二組はグループトナメで圧倒的だったからね
両前衛はやってみると難しいだけに、余計に強く見えるわな
現にオッズはこれこの通り
22:名無しの魔導士 ID:SEYc8Y7
後ろに魔法職を置く方がRPGの戦術としてはオーソドックスなはずなのに
どうしてこうなった
23:名無しの神官 ID:8CuuAL6
後ろに弓術士がTBのスタンダードなのさ......
24:名無しの魔導士 ID:HkWNs2Y
どうしても詠唱時間が足を引っ張るのよね
前衛の負担が弓より大きいのはかなりのマイナスポイント
はぁ......
25:名無しの神官 ID:fmRF9rW
22-24 せめて勝ち残った魔法職を応援しようぜ
もう二人しか居ないんだし......
折角だから俺も勇者ちゃん達に賭けてくるわ、少額だけど
「まあ、上位二組の両前衛はグループトーナメントの圧勝を受けた例外として。わっちとヘルシャちゃん達以外の四組は、全部弓が入った形だしね」
「ただの職差別ではないか! 浅はかな!」
「それもあるだろうけど、俺達はグループ決勝で大苦戦したからなあ」
「フフーン!」
トビが誇らしげに胸を張る。
普段なら調子に乗るなと言いたいところだが、昨夜はかなり落ち込んでいたので放っておいてやろう。
と、そこで何かを考えるように口元に手を当てていた未祐が息を吸い込む。
「......決めた。私も自分達に賭けるぞ!」
「おおっ、未祐っちやる気だね! その言葉を待ってたぜ!」
そして宣言と共に椅子から立ち上がり、気合を入れるように胸をドンと叩いた。
弾みで双丘がポヨンと揺れる。
「賭けるのは結構だけど、額はほどほどに――」
「......全部だ」
「え?」
「手持ち全部だ! 当たり前だろう!」
「うひょー! さすが未祐っち、話が分かる!」
こいつら、外れた後のことを全く考えてないな......。
盛り上がる二人をよそに茶を飲んでいると、何故か急に静かになってこちらに期待のこもった視線を向けてくる。
え、俺も賭けなきゃいけない流れ?
「じゃ、じゃあ少しだけ」
「「はぁーっ......」」
何だよ、その「お前にはがっかりした」って顔と反応は。安定志向の何が悪い。
大体、いくらゲームとはいえ賭け事って好きじゃないんだよ。
こちとら普段の生活で、如何に節約しつつ過ごすかに対して腐心しているのに。
外れたら0だぞ、0。何も返ってこない。
だったら、少し贅沢して美味しいものでも食べた方がよっぽど――
「亘、長い付き合いだ......お前が考えていることは大体分かるぞ。だが、これはゲームだ! ゲームなのだ! 現実のようにリスクばかりを気にして、一体何が楽しい!? 賭けるのだ、お前も! 己に!!」
「!!!」
その未祐の言葉に、俺は頭を殴られたような衝撃を受けた。
た、確かに......ゲーム内のお金が無くなったとして、それがなんだと言うのか。
また一から稼ぎ直すという苦労も、ゲームなら色々な手段を考えるという楽しさに繋がるものかもしれない。
どう考えても乗せられている、乗せられているが――こういう時くらいは、別に乗っかってしまっても構わないかな......。
「――分かった。俺も全額賭けるよ」
「「っしゃあああああっ!」」
「お前らうるさい。全力は尽くすけど、後悔しても知らんからな」
駄目だったらイベント終了後は金策地獄に決定だ。
と、そこで時計を確認したらもう十五時が近かった。
そろそろおやつを用意しようかと席を立つと、背中から秀平が声を掛けてくる。
「ところでわっち、自分以外の誰かに賭けるとしたらどうした?」
「あ? そりゃあ――」
アルベルトの兄貴でしょ、普通に考えたら。
俺がそう言うと、二人はやっぱりな......という顔をして笑うのだった。
[Oh right, participants like us can also bet right?]  (Wataru)
[That seems to be the case. How about you bet on yourselves?]  (Shuuhei)
[Before that, I'd like to know what the bet odds are like.]  (Wataru)
[Ooh, I want to know too! How popular are we!?]  (Miyu)
When he heard us say that, Shuuhei turned his eyes away awkwardly.
Hey, don't tell me...
[Y-You won't hear anything from my mouth...you can see the odds in the main page. Here.]  (Shuuhei)
Saying that, Shuuhei handed us his tablet, which was showing the official site.
I'm getting a bad feeling about this, but for the time being, let's take a look.
[Ah...looking from the top, our names don't appear at all...ah, there it is. This one.]  (Wataru)
[8th place...49x...wait a moment!! We are dead last aren't weeeeeeee!!?]  (Miyu)
[Y-Yup]  (Shuuhei)
What's with this cruel rank.
The number shown to us was just cruel, there were hardly any players that thought we would win the whole thing.
Even though we hadn't fought yet, I had this odd feeling of having lost already.
After pouring some for Miyu and Shuuhei, I took the teacup and took a sip of the tea, it was a bit more bitter than usual.
[While it's a bit weird for me to ask this since this concerns me, Shuuhei. Is it really going to be fine? To bet that huge amount of money into this.
[I regret it a bit...b-but, Wacchi, you'll do something about it right? It's going to be fine!! It's going to be huge if I get it right!]  (Shuuhei)
[Even if you say that to me...]  (Wataru)
[However, I can't accept this! Shuuhei, why did things end up like this!? Explain things to me!]  (Miyu)
[There's a thread that is predicting who will win, wait a moment...ah, here. I think you'll get an idea after seeing this.]  (Shuuhei)
[(Last Boss] Thread 2 for predicting the winners of the Grado Empire sponsored*Duel tournament event [(Albert]
This is a thread to predict the winner of the ongoing PvP tournament in TB.
Chat regarding betting odds and amount of money bet should also be done here.
Let's be well mannered.
The next thread will be made once we reach over 900 comments.

4:Nameless Knight ID:LpcPafa
Thanks for making the thread!
5:Nameless Light Warrior ID:nLbGEeY
Good work.
However, there's hardly any profit for betting on 1st place...
6:Nameless Shinto Priest ID:BAxfMw5
Besides, it does look like it's going to end up being even lower than that.
It'll probably end at 1.2x by the end.
7:Nameless Mage ID:NSZe6h7
The finals of Group A was the highlight after all.
He turned the match around even when he ended 2 v 1 after all.
8:Nameless Archer ID:jBsCZa2
That old man Albert is all sorts of weird.
And Philia-chan is cute.
9:Nameless Light Warrior ID:TphkGPw
What relationship does she have with that mass of muscles?
She's a little girl, or rather, she looks like an elementary schooler...his daughter?
10:Nameless Archer ID:SnzsbLX
No way, they don't look alike at all.
11:Nameless Shinto Priest ID:Gn4RuKR
If his wife was pretty there's a chance.
There's...a chance, I think.
12:Nameless Mage ID:KwNgwXF
I don't know the truth but...a little girl brandishing a big axe has its appeal.
Since I thought it was going to be full of guys, I'm quite happy about how surprisingly there's a few female players left.
13:Nameless Heavy Warrior ID:urQQUmy
Let's see...Philia-chan, Rose-chan, Iris-chan.
That ojou-sama and Hero-chan, and Walter-chan huh? That makes it 6!
14:Nameless Archer ID:SnzsbLX
Eh? Did he just mix someone into that group?
15:Nameless Knight ID:PWhc8rf
I didn't see anything.
16:Nameless Light Warrior ID:X7UXVd7
WALTER-CHANISACUTEGIRLWITHASHORTCUT!
IT'STRUE!!
17:Nameless Martial Artist ID:gzDg469
I can't be the only one that had to double-check when he saw the profiles in the replay videos LOL.
That's a scam, a scam I tell you.
18:Nameless Heavy Warrior ID:8wPUixb
Fuh, I bet on Hero-chan and True Self, who are dead last.
Please make it happen like last event...please!
19:Nameless Mage ID:bTSiSWA
Last event...was it where Hero-chan made it into the damage rankings?
20:Nameless Heavy Warrior ID:8wPUixb
@19 That's right.
On the last day, True Self used Sacrifice and Hero-chan stole 1st place from Albert.
21:Nameless Knight ID:23J84Pg
But, I wonder how it'll go? 1st place and 2nd place were overwhelming in the group tournament.
It's hard when you have to fight two vanguards, they look quite strong.
That's why the current odds are like that.
22:Nameless Mage ID:SEYc8Y7
Even though having a magic job behind would be an orthodox tactic in RPGs.
Why did it end up like this?
23:Nameless Shinto Priest ID:8CuuAL6
Because having an Archer behind is the standard in TB...
24:Nameless Mage ID:HkWNs2Y
The casting times get in the way after all.
Putting more of a burden on your vanguards than Archers is quite the minus.
Hah...
25:Nameless Shinto Priest ID:fmRF9rW
@22-24 At least, let's keep cheering for the magic classes that have won until now.
There's only 2 left after all...
Since it's like this, I'll go bet on Hero-chan too, though it'll only be a small amount.
[The other 4 pairs aside from Herscha-chan's and Wacchi's all have an Archer in them.] (Shuuhei)
[Isn't that just job discrimination!? So shallow minded!]  (Miyu)
[Well there's that too, but we also had a close match in our group final after all] (Wataru)
[Fufun!] (Shuuhei)
Shuuhei proudly stuck out his chest.
Usually, I would tell him not to get carried away but since he looked quite down yesterday, I'll let it pass this time.
And then, as if she was thinking about something, Miyu put her hand over her mouth and breathed in.
[...I decided. I'm also going to bet on ourselves!]  (Miyu)
[Ooh, Miyucchi you sure are fired up!! I was waiting for those words!!]  (Shuuhei)
She stood up from her chair along with those words and as if to put fighting spirit into those words, she hit her chest.
Because of the inertia, those twin hills of hers were shaking.
[I'm fine with betting, but let the amount be modera-]  (Wataru)
[...Everything.] (Miyu)
[Eh?] (Wataru)
[Everything we own!! Shouldn't that be obvious!!?] (Miyu)
[Whoa!! As expected of Miyucchi, you know what you are talking about!!] (Shuuhei)
These guys, they are not thinking at all about what would happen if they fail...
Once I drank the tea while those two were getting excited, for some reason, it suddenly got quiet and they stared at me with eyes full of expectation.
Eh, are they telling me I have to go and bet too?
[W-Well then, I'll bet only a small amount.] (Wataru)
[[Hah...] ] (Both of them)
What's with that expression that looks as if they are saying[I'm disappointed in you] , what's wrong with going for a safe option.
To begin with, even if it's a game, I don't like things like gambling.
In real life, I make a lot of effort to economise as much as I can.
It's going to be 0 if we miss you know? 0. We won't get anything back.
In that case, it would be much better if we indulged ourselves a bit and went to eat something tast-
[Wataru, I've known you for a long time...I know what you are thinking about more or less. However, this is a game!! A game!! What's fun about thinking about risks as if it was real life!? You have to bet too!! You have to!!] (Miyu)
[!!!] (Wataru)
Hearing Miyu's words, I felt shock as if I had just been hit in my head.
I-It's true that...even if the money inside the game were to be gone, that wouldn't matter at all.
Even if we had to work hard to earn it all back, as long as it's a game, thinking about ways to earn the money might lead to ways to have fun.
No matter where you look at it from, I'm being dragged into it, I am but...if it's at times like this, I guess I wouldn't mind being dragged into it...
[...I got it. I'll bet everything too.] (Wataru)
[[Alriiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!!] ] (Both of them)
[You guys are so noisy. I'll do my best, but don't blame me later.] (Wataru)
If we end up losing, it's decided that it'll be money earning hell after the event ends.
Then, I checked the clock and noticed that it was close to 3pm.
I stood up since it was about time for a snack and Shuuhei said from behind me.
[By the way, Wacchi. Who would you bet on if it was someone other than yourself?] (Shuuhei)
[Ah? Well...] (Wataru)
If we thought about it normally, it would probably the Aniki, Albert.
Once I said that, both made faces that were saying "I thought so"...and laughed.
