Many problems occurred in a short time.

In turn, we were interrupted by the way to our destination, Diana insulted me, and furthermore, Tilia Vanguard, who seems to be the eldest daughter of the family, tries to get compensation, saying this is a matter of honor.

The price of compensation is all we have and the life of a demonman.

It is easy to imagine how hard it will be for the people left behind if they pay such a price in the middle of the road.

However, all the annoyances I felt from Tillia's words of duel were joyous.

Duel? What a wonderful culture?

It penetrates the human nature accurately.

The winner gets everything and the loser loses everything.

Private sanctions banned due to too much harm in the long history of violence.

The beginning was a simple accident, but it grew out of control by arguing about honor and whatnot.

But I liked this side.

In modern times, there are many things to argue about when accidents occur, and there are many things to care about.

On the other hand, the rule that the winner is justice has the advantage of being able to deal with many problems in a lump.

Instead, the loser gets an indelible wound.

"Okay."

"Then…."

"I want to ask you something before that."

I stopped talking to Tilia.

"What do you want to ask?"

"I can see clearly what happens when we lose. What if you lose?

Specifically, how do you mean you're apologizing?"

"Ha!"

Diana snorted in.

"What a pity. He doesn't even know his subject.…."

"……."

Tilia, with a subtle smile on her face, let Diana talk.

"Tillia is ranked 5th in Melbritt's ranking. She's a knight who was given the honor of Vanguard's pride, Hong Yum!

It is hard to understand the high status of an adventurer who has yet to take the entrance exam."

This is unexpected information.

Flying fish is one of the most powerful of all the candidates?

At least I meant that I was not the one who could fight back and win.

This was the basis for his endless confidence.

Even if you act recklessly, you have a strong sister, so you don't think you'll be harmed by others.

"Diana, you're a tough opponent. I need to grow my eyes."

Tilia scolded her brother for his soft speech.

"Sister? Does that mean he's that strong?"

"Not that, but the party is quite strong. It's not an ordinary executor and an elf."

That is accurate.

Tilia pointed to the two strongest members of our group, and I and Karen seemed to care less.

"Dekal, I don't care if you pinch the strongest man on your side.

If I lose, I will officially apologize. In the name of the Vanguard family."

Apologize on the name?

What's the difference between saying sorry?

Tilia added if she noticed my dissatisfaction.

"While you clean up the scene, we'll help you. And then we're on our way. What do you think?"

No, so you were originally going to tell us to clean up?

I was speechless because I was so dumb.

He made ridiculous remarks as if they were natural, so he didn't even have the power to argue.

That's the only apology you can get against our demon and the demon?

"That's not enough."

"Tribes? What do we do more than apologize in the name of the family?"

It was an illusion that Tilia thought the words worked.

Doesn't he look like he doesn't know what to do anymore?

It was just confirmed that there was an incomparable difference in perception with the world's aristocrats.

I'll proofread it for you.

I looked at the two and said as if I were declaring.

"I'll take a duel. But what you think is a sincere apology is useless, so I'll follow the rules I set."

Exactly.

I flicked my finger and put Tilia and Diana sisters in a trans state.

"Tilia, if you lose the duel, you will actively comply with my request."

"Active, enemy..."."

"This is above the rules of yourself, of your family. The world of winning is cold and serious."

"……."

It doesn't mean anything if you manipulate it and make it apologize.

In line with this situation, I was going to teach Diana a true apology.

I don't need any other suggestions. Yet"Oppa, Easty. What's this? They're in a weird condition."

Karen asked in a frightening, trembling voice.

First time he's been through it, he's scared.

"Ah. This?"

I was ready to clap my hands and said.

"Hypnosis."

Mate

Tilia and Diana, who were still as if they had been deprived of their souls for a moment, responded to my clapping and came to their senses.

"Your rules? It's arbitrary. You're not obligated to follow that."

The conversation continued as if nothing had happened in the meantime.

"Esty."

Eastie took a step forward as if she had waited for my call.

"You can win, right?"

"I don't have the confidence to watch."

Easty calmly burned his fighting spirit.

"Because I've touched Darling. I might kill him."

"Killing a student is a little difficult."

Diana, who had been acting rudely, couldn't say anything because of Easty's spirit.

I think I now realize that the situation is unusual.

And I don't think she's making a big fuss.

"I knew you'd come out. I couldn't stand it because my eyes were so hot. I've never heard of the name Easty before.…."

"Don't forget my name. I might be teaching you."

Tilia's eyes suddenly changed.

The two people's hostility toward each other swelled tightly, creating breathtaking tension.

What will happen from now on is not just a fistfight.

When no one dared to speak out, Noah squeezed between the two as if they were splitting them apart.

"This place is not appropriate. There's an empty space next to the street, so let's move the battle site."

"Okay, I don't want any damage to our wagon."

Tilia coolly accepted Noah's offer.

Noah takes the lead first and goes to the vacant lot next to him.

It was a plain with short grass, but there was only a few stones and nothing else.

Tilia put her two-handed swords on her shoulders, turned her neck, loosened her wrists, sat down and stood up, and warmed up.

On the other hand, Estee stood still with her eyes closed.

Easty is getting ready to use the spirit of the wind.

Naturally, we're watching them face each other in a little distance.

Vanguard's servants were watching from further away.

"Decal."

Tilia suddenly looked at me and said,

"Did you talk to the demonman? We need to decide who will stick out their necks."

"Don't worry. If the demonman runs away, I'll give him my neck."

"That's cool. I don't hate that kind of spirit."

Of course, I don't want to give my neck away because I lost.

Karen said nervously.

"Oppa, what if Estee loses at least one?"

"I'm curious, too."

Noah said.

"Dekal, it would have been easy if you had hinted at breaking the opponent's capabilities, but why didn't you?"

"Because I trust her."

"I believe in Estee, but I don't know what will happen in a duel. If my brother dies because of this, I will...."

I'm afraid I can't help it.

That's normal. Why would I be so determined that I'm on the verge of losing my voice?

"……."

Noah stared at my face.

I was blindfolded, but I could tell.

"Did it show?"

"Yes, it's not a very empty word, but I had a feeling it wasn't what I really meant."

"How do you know that?"

"There's a sense of incompatibility. Aside from trusting Miss Estee, I think Decal has the ability to solve this much smoother."

"I was watching the situation until the duel came up."

In the meantime, there were some important clues in the conversation that seemed to be nothing.

First, the fact that Tilia is the strongest in the warrior school.

I don't know about the phase of tinnitus, but it was easy to know the ranking of numbers. It means he's the fifth strongest.

"You just want to see it."

Noah guessed my insides wonderfully.

"I'm from another world. I know you guys are strong, but I just know.

On the other hand, I'm going to enter a warrior school from now on, but I don't know how far my power is yet.

This is a good opportunity. It's a rare sight."

I think my experience has made me quite strong.

Among the common adventurers. The rating of Gold supports the conjecture.But how's it going up there? Do I deserve to reach out? I thought this when I found out that combat skills are an important virtue in this world.

I want to take a look.

Coincidentally, it is not a good opportunity to watch it on U○V.

"This could hurt Miss Estee. Is that all right?"

Noah's tone does not seem to be trying to blame me, but it was polite.

It seems like a question just out of pure curiosity.

But if you answer this question, Noah will know my true feelings.

I'm just hypnotizing Eastie.

It's not that I love you from the bottom of my heart.

"Estie said she was going to be Melbritt's teacher herself. I don't think I'll lose to a student."

"……."

Noah's expression cannot be read.

I don't know what you're thinking under that blindfold.

But with this question-and-answer, it's clear what I am.

"Oppa, I think it's going to start!"

Tilia took out the sword.

I thought it was unique from the beginning.

It is too long to hold with one hand and too thin to weigh.

The fact that it is raw remains unchanged, but I thought it was a little less stable than Karen's blunt one-handed sword.

If it wasn't for acrobatic swordsmanship, we wouldn't be able to handle that sword.

Tilia, who held the handle lightly with both hands and widened the gap between her legs, told Estee, who was standing naturally.

"Get your weapons out. I'll wait that long."

"……."

"Or are you the type to fight with your bare hands out of place?"

Easty stayed still even when Tilia said it as if she were floating.

Estee's bow was always popping up whenever she needed it.

So I don't usually carry weapons or arrows.

Because the opponent didn't know it, the strange confrontation continued.

"In the Elf's duel."

Eastie finally opened her mouth.

"Give the low man a head start."

"……."

Tilia blinked and thought about what that meant.

"Aha ha!"

He tilted his head and smiled coolly.

"I didn't know that there was such consideration in the Elf world."

"You can move first."

"Then I won't say no."

The atmosphere of Tilia has changed.

I recognized it quickly. The fact that Tilia called the Spirit.

Near her, the Red Spirit's core moves like a dance. The spirit's presence was never pushed back in comparison to that of the Estee.

Is it the influence of the Spirit? It's a bit warm.

"Ugh. It's hot."

"I think it's the Spirit of Fire. I've heard rumors about red inflammation, but I didn't expect to have this much spirit."

The two seemed to be feeling much stronger than I was.

The next moment, Tilia's sword began to burn with fierce momentum. It is a red flame like a tinnitus called red inflammation.

It was a sight that ordinary people would lose their fighting spirit just by looking at it.

I was going to try Karen's sword in the dungeon, but I stopped.

I don't know if it's the same magic as "Fire Inchant," but Tilia looked fine holding a burning sword as if she were protected by flames like me.

"Here we go!"

Tilia kicked the ground once. With that alone, it slides on the ground and narrows the distance from Easty at once.

It's an amazing move. Tilia swung the sword without killing the speed, but an angry fire followed the trajectory of the sword and hit Easty.

Estee stepped back slightly to avoid the sword and repressed it with the spirit of the fiery wind.

It was a cold and clean response.

Tilia immediately grabbed the sword and attacked. Every time Tilia approaches and swings her sword, she retreats just as much and avoids it.

The raging flames between the two were nowhere near Easty.

"Wow...! Brother. Have you ever seen a spirit like that?"

Karen was watching the battle, sweating in her hands.

We learned the sense of seeing spirits thanks to Estee during our special training.

Because of this, we could see that the movement of spirits was more active than the battle of the body.

The harsh flames of Tilia's Spirit, and the spirit of the wind that Estee carries, are all flowing out in delicate winds.

On the surface, it looks like a sword fight for Tilia, but...….

"It's like you're competing for a spirit. What do you think about Noah?""I agree. The level of achievement of spirit techniques is similar, but Miss Estee's operation stands out. There's no waste."

"Is the degree of achievement similar?"

It looks like I.T. is playing with it.

As I was watching more, the situation gradually changed.

The flames were gradually penetrating the windshield of Easty.

Feeling the heat, Easty frowned slightly.

"I don't think it's time to relax."

Tilia grinned.

Suddenly, the flames spread out and Tilia was swallowed by the flames.

Did she disappear? Tilia suddenly appeared behind Easty. Just before the burning sword hits, Easty shakes off the tent, runs wide and opens the streets.

"Now...! Haaaah!

Tilia suddenly lowered her posture and swung the sword wide.

Even though it wasn't within our reach.

The direction of Tillia's sword. Flames rose from the floor like waves, sweeping Easty in an instantaneously.

"Esty!"

Karen cried desperately.

It was such a threatening attack, but there was nothing in the place where the fire swept away.

It's a space leap. Easty suddenly appeared in his favor, and at the same time, Tilia avoided the flying arrow.

"……."

There was a bow in Estee's hand.

I've seen him leap, but when did he shoot? It was surprising that Tilia reacted.

Even though he was swept away by the flames just before the leap, there was not a single little tan on Estee's clothes or skin.

Then Easty moves his empty right hand slightly, like he's playing an instrument, and takes out a translucent arrow one, two, three, like magic.

Up to four were wrapped in pods and staged a demonstration.

As soon as Tilia, who had thrown herself, balanced, four arrows left Estee's bow at once.
