Of course, it wasn't that they were unwilling!
Take Fire-chasing Seele and Fire-chasing Duck, for example.
"Do you want to go?"
"Yes!"
"Then... shall the two of us go together?"
"Mm... As long as I'm with Seele, I don't mind what we do..."
"..."
And so, they happily made their decision.
That was fine, right?!
In reality,
everyone was thinking about it now.
Whether they should participate in the competition!
Obviously,
Little Griseo was serious about this.
If this time they acted just like the first time, joining in on a whim, fooling around, and treating it like a joke...
then it would really come across as rather disrespectful!
Even if Little Griseo didn't say anything,
they themselves wouldn't want to do that either!
She wasn't demanding that they absolutely pass the preliminary selection, proving that they truly liked Little Griseo.
But if they knew they wouldn't make it and still insisted on going just to embarrass themselves, that wouldn't do, would it?
Even if they really had some sort of purpose, personal gain, or ulterior motive...
that was still a reason, after all.
Wasn't it?
Before registration for the event officially began, this period was meant to give everyone time to sort out their feelings.
Whether you wanted to participate in this competition or not, you had better think it through! Once you had... then come sign up.
It was like a buffer.
A cooling-off period.
Although this wouldn't be the only Goddess War battle,
still,
whether it was treated as a carnival or a celebration,
it was impossible for such an event to happen often!
Therefore, every opportunity still had to be cherished.
