Picking up Girls With My System

Arthur did not know how to get there, but he had a map, and Laura went to that city before, so not that problematic for them. Well, the only problem was taking care of those losers.

"Arthur, can we rest for some time? I am tired!!!"

"But we are traveling in a carriage? How can you be tired of doing nothing?"

"I- We are not used to sleep on those moving things."

"This is unbelievable."

When Seth told him the tournament would start in a month and a half, he wondered what was the reason to leave so soon then? Well, Seth knew his losers, and after a few hours, Arthur understood why.

The amount of times they had to stop and camp to rest was unbelievable. These students had zero energy levels, and most of them could not stay 24 hours awake!

"These people would be casuals gamers back at my world."

Arthur tried to put his mind on other things, like the beautiful scenery he saw through the carriage window, or talk with Laura about random stuff.

A journey that should take him fifteen days to complete turned into an entire month! When Arthur saw the city they were supposed to go, he did not believe it for a second.

"Is it true? Are we finally here?" He thought.

The city was called Trine, and it was the destination of all the schools in that period. As Arthur was using the carriage of the One Hundred Thunder Academy, the guards quickly realized who he was, and did not let him take a queue to enter the city.

"Sir, there is a secret entrance for esteemed guests. Please, follow me." The guard said.

Not only the schools, but Trine was a busy city, as it was in the middle of the continent. Lots of people lived there, but a lot of travelers from around the continent went there during their journeys to a stop.

For that reason, the place bloomed with all kinds of people from all parts of the continent. As for the layout of the city, just like most of the cities Arthur saw, it was backed up by a wall with magical formations and guards watching every entrance!

The only uncommon thing Arthur saw was a gigantic tree in the middle of the city, which reminded him of the trees he saw back at where the elves lived because of how huge it was!

"Beautiful, isn\'t it? Some legends say the tree is the effect of a powerful spell from thousand of years ago." Laura said after they passed through the secret entrance to the city.

They went inside by foot, as their carriage was in another place, being watched by the city\'s guards to make sure nothing happened to it.

"It is indeed. How long till the tournament?"

"Fifteen days or something. We have a reservation in the best hotel the city offers. Awesome, right?"

Laura was smiling and jumping with happiness. For Arthur, it seemed she was more excited to have a vacation in this hotel than the actual tournament.

Well, for him it was the same thing! He would not fight, which was already boring enough, but he also had to take care of the losers Seth gave him.

Any sane man would go insane, but perhaps fifteen days in the best hotel the city has could change that outcome!

"Let\'s fucking go!"

The streets of Trine were decorated and the people\'s smiles turned the atmosphere into a completely different level! That tournament happened frequently, and as the years passed, it turned into a celebration for the people of Trine, making them decorate the city and sell their food and trinkets to all the tourists that came to see the tournament!

"They turned this tournament into something profitable for them. That is nice." Arthur thought.

On his way to the hotel, he saw some other students from lower ranked schools. Different from them who could enjoy his time in the best hotel, they had to go to other hotels in the city, and that showed the difference between their schools!

Not that the other hotels were bad, not at all, but the treatment Arthur had was way better. They made their way to the hotel Laura was talking about, and it was extraordinary!

The place was in a quiet neighborhood that the normal people could not access it, making it a peaceful environment.

What caught the most attention was the immense courtyard with pools of all sizes, hot springs, saunas, outside tables to eat surrounded by the green, and lots of fun games Arthur did not know how to play!

The building itself had a whooping seventeen floors! It was huge, all made of marble with columns made of gold! Just by looking at it, one could tell it was a place for the rich.

Arthur was not the first from the top schools to arrive there. Some were already enjoying their time in the pools in the courtyard, and among those people was the black-haired youth Arthur saw back at the Icy Cave.

"He is here!"

Both of them exchanged glances for a second, but ignored each other afterwards. Now, the one person Arthur was not expecting to see was Kane!

The red-haired youth that was with Laura back at the inheritance.

"Look what we have here. Laura and her puppet." Kane said.

He had the backup of the Official Mage who was taking care of their squad in the tournament, and that was the reason to why he was so arrogant.

"Laura, who is this?" Arthur said, looking at her.

"Don\'t you remember, Kane? You saw him back when you saved me."

"Oh, right? I am sorry, I usually erase useless stuff from my mind. I am so sorry for you being a useless trash, Kane."

Everyone who was just chilling in the pools had already seen the scene that was unfolding, as well as the arrogance coming from Kane, but not a single one of them expected for Arthur to strike back so fiercely!

"You are brave to talk with my student like that."

The Official Mage in charge took the lead before Kane said something stupid and end up dead! It was a fight between the leader of the squads, and the rest should stay away.

"And you are stupid to think we are on the same level. Isn\'t your school Phoenix Blood or something? You should take to your superior and change it to Bird Brain, because holy shit, you are all stupid to the bones," Arthur said, and did not stop.

"I am no beast tamer, but I surely talk with a lot of animals. Move out of the way, bird head."

Arthur shocked everyone with his sentences, and then shocked them even more after he walked and bumped into the Official Mage, not giving a fuck!

The people from the Phoenix Blood were burning with anger, but there wasn\'t anything they could do at that moment! Fights for the hotel were prohibited, and everyone knew a rank 2 mage was watching everything!

Arthur stopped after bumping on the Official Mage, turned around and said, "hello? Losers from my school? Hurry or I will kill you!"
