My Daughters Are Regressors

Chapter 217: Molumolu Land (3)

The Four Heavenly Kings of Molumolu Land dwelled within the 「Dream Castle」, serving as its guardians.Each commanded powerful Molumolu and faced those who dared challenge them.Any challenger who managed to defeat the Four Heavenly Kings would earn the right to face the ★Molumolu Master★ waiting at the castle’s highest floor.Victory against the ★Molumolu Master★ would grant them the title of new Master.Ever since 「Molumolu Land」 and 「Molumolu Battles」 were introduced to the world, however, the Master’s position had remained uncontested and unchanging.

That’s precisely why─.─The children yearned for a new era of change.After all, children thrived on worlds in turmoil.

“You can do it Tywin!”“Show those Four Heavenly Kings what you’re made of!”

The children cheered as Tywin made her way toward the 「Dream Castle」.While the journey would normally take quite some time, Tywin’s Molumolu Ingingi had mastered the 《Sky Flying》 technique and could carry her through the air.

Float— Float—The children watched in awe as Tywin soared through the sky atop her Molumolu.

“A Molumolu that flies without wings.”“Tywin’s Molumolu Ingingi must be something special. I wonder how she managed to evolve it?”“Could it be one of those legendary evolved forms they say appears only once in all of Molumolu Land?”

Though every child’s Molumolu held limitless potential, some were clearly extraordinary and remarkable.The children referred to these as 「Rare Molumolu」, regarding them with admiration and envy.

There were two primary ways to obtain a 「Rare Molumolu」.One could either explore Molumolu Land gathering special materials for ‘Special Evolution’, or nurture a real world Molumolu with genuine care and affection to meet ‘Special Conditions’.Notably, each of the Four Heavenly Kings’ Molumolu were Rare Molumolu. Their strength was unmatched, having received abundant affection in countless ways.They too aspired to claim the title of ★Molumolu Master★─.

Could today’s challenger Tywin Balyuda overcome them and earn her shot at the Master?The children watched intently, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Tap—At last, Tywin dismounted from Molumolu Ingingi’s back.Before her stood an immense castle alongside a massive colosseum-like arena.The colosseum was packed with children who had gathered to spectate.When Tywin appeared in the center, the crowd erupted in cheers as fireworks went Pop— Pop— Pop— Bang— throughout the sky.

Through the thunderous display, four shadows emerged.Each wore a magnificent cape of different hues.

“Those capes are amazing! The true mark of the Four Heavenly Kings!”“It’s been a whole month since anyone last challenged the Four Heavenly Kings!”“Show them what you’ve got, Four Heavenly Kings!”

The Four Heavenly Kings commanded both respect and support from the children thanks to their impressive abilities.

Swish— Swish—The four figures appeared, waving to the crowd before striking dramatic poses.

Shiiing—As a sharp sound effect rang out, the child in the purple cape spoke up.

“Challenger Tywin Barjudas! I shall be your first opponent! I am Soso of the Four Heavenly Kings! My companion Xiaoxiao is formidable! Go forth, Xiaoxiao!”

Pop—At Four Heavenly King Soso’s command, a purple Molumolu bounded into the arena.Its purple hue was truly stunning.

━Xiaoong.

Soso’s Molumolu was Xiaoxiao.As one of the Rare Molumolu, it was known to be quite the tricky opponent.The children gasped at the appearance of this Molumolu that had thwarted many challengers from the very start of the Molumolu battles.

“Xiaoxiao’s up first!”“Even with Tywin’s strong Molumolu, won’t the Four Heavenly Kings prove too much?”“You’ve got this Tywin!”

Amid the children’s cheers, Tywin sent Molumolu Ingingi into the arena.

━Ingingyaing.Soso’s expression wavered slightly upon seeing the sky blue Molumolu Ingingi.She immediately recognized that Tywin’s Molumolu was a 「Rare Molumolu」.

“This is my first time seeing a sky blue Molumolu. And Molumolu with unusual colors typically possess unusual abilities. Just like my Xiaoxiao. Well then, ready─.”

Pheeeeet—!The match began with a piercing whistle.The battle between the Four Heavenly Kings and Tywin would be broadcast to every child in Molumolu Land through its mysterious transmission system.

“Xiaoxiao, use Cute Charm!”

━Xiaoong.

The purple Xiaoxiao wiggled its body playfully.The sight was so endearing it melted the hearts of all observers.While it appeared to be mere cuteness, this was actually a fearsome technique.It was designed to lower opponents’ defenses.Sure enough, Tywin’s Molumolu Ingingi grew sluggish, enchanted by Xiaoxiao’s adorable display.

Seeing this, Soso let out a triumphant laugh.

“You’ve fallen for it! Xiaoxiao’s irresistible cuteness!”

“......”

Tywin had to acknowledge that Xiaoxiao was no ordinary Molumolu.But then again, neither was Tywin’s companion.

“Ingingi, time for Rest!”

“《Shell Game》 is exclusive to villain-type Molumolu! It’s not something just anyone can teach! Tywin, your Molumolu wasn’t magic-type after all!?”

“I never actually said my Molumolu was magic-type, right?”

There were ways to deceive opponents without lying outright.Simply by withholding information, one could mislead others-Tywin had learned such tactics of deception and misdirection from Salome.

“Grrrr! Tywin!!! You!!!!”

It was truly a clever ruse.Morgan was furious at being outwitted by Tywin.And she couldn’t comprehend how Ingingi, who used magic techniques, could also employ villain techniques.

“Don’t tell me your Ingingi is like that one’s Molumolu and can use all-“

“Ingingi, Evil Cutter!”

━Grrrr!

Ingingi released a sharp wave of energy.It struck Moruru, slicing through some of its fur.

━Morururu...

Moruru collapsed to the ground.With the second Heavenly King’s defeat-The children grew even more excited.

“To think it would come to my turn. This is quite the unusual challenger, isn’t it? Your tricks won’t work forever though. Come! I, Neva de Voluntari, shall be your opponent!”

Neva de Voluntari.Tywin knew that name well too.

‘Who would have thought I’d encounter a real princess in a place like this.’

“Go forth, Minimi!”

Pop—!Neva’s Molumolu Minimi bounded into the arena.Minimi was black and rivaled a tiger in size.Who could have imagined a Molumolu could grow so large?

━Miniiiii-.

Tywin felt genuine tension.Such size typically meant formidable physical power.This would prove to be her most challenging opponent yet.So Tywin decided to demonstrate her skills before any complications could arise.

‘When facing large and powerful opponents, identifying their weak point is crucial.’

“Ingingi, Arrow Headbutt! Target its weak point, aim for the crown!”

Tywin had learned the hunter’s technique of spotting and exploiting weak points from Cariote. Molumolu Ingingi shot forward like an arrow, striking Minimi’s crown with precise force.

━Krrrng...!

Pop—!

━Miniiiii...

“No, my Minimi...!?”

For three of the Four Heavenly Kings to fall in less than an hour.At this unprecedented turn of events, the children could barely breathe, watching in stunned silence.Only one Heavenly King remained.As everyone watched this new ‘history’ unfold with bated breath, that final challenger stepped forward.

“Well Tywin, looks like I’m the only one left who can stop you, right?”

“You’re-“

This time even Tywin was genuinely surprised.A girl with red hair elegantly curled like a bread roll stood before her.Elizabeth, the girl fated to remain eternally second after being surpassed by Tywin.Elizabeth had appeared.

“You might outshine me at Graham Academy, but this is my domain! Don’t think you can best me after all my dedicated training in Molumolu battles with Naru!”
