An envoy from the Duke of Astraeus' soldiers came to the Belesdral to offer terms for a duel.

First, the place must be the one they have chosen

It seems that the soldiers will cut down some trees to make a dueling arena, which will be used for the duel.

Only one witness from each side may be present during the duel.

The others must be at a distance.

And he may not kill Bellamus for cause.

Therefore, if you kill your opponent in a duel, the one you kill loses.

If the opponent kills himself, the dead player loses.

Victory or defeat is determined by making it objectively difficult for the opponent to continue fighting, such as by letting him say he is overwhelmed, or by stunting him or taking his weapon.

There are several other conditions to keep him from setting a trap for us.

The duel is five days later at noon.

He'll give us the day before the duel.

Vellums said yes to everything.

And since the enemy will build a dueling place, there is a risk of setting a trap.

But it's unlikely, Bellamus thought.

Because if it comes down to a duel, she knows she'll win.

They'll be wary of our traps, but they won't need to set any traps for themselves.

And no matter what kind of trap they had set for us, Bellamus was confident in his ability to handle it.

It was more important that we win the duel and then return home as promised.

It wasn't enough to win by ordinary means.

It's a huge disparity. They have to be shown.

If we win in such a way that they understand that it's hard to win with hundreds of men, Bellamus thought, they'll leave with open arms.

Four days later, he was told where the duel would take place and the next day he went to the place he was told.

.

Pleased to meet you, my name is Berd. I'm in the service of the Countess of Astraeus. It's a pleasure to meet you.

On the day of the duel, the trees in the dueling area have been cut down cleanly, leaving a decent amount of space, and

Beramus was facing Berd.

As a witness, Juan is behind Berd and Medina is behind Bellamus.

By the way, Delarosa wanted so badly to be the witness for Vellums, but it was too dangerous, so she chose Medina.

Nice to meet you too. My name is Bellamus. I'm the mayor of Belesdral. Nice to meet you.

Beld stares at him, wondering if this is the son of Lord Rememesto.

Juan and Medina each check the area to see if anyone is nearby.

Then let the duel begin. In this duel, if you kill your opponent, the one who kills him loses. Is that clear?

I know.

Then let's get started. When the fans blow the whistle, let's start. Are you all right?

No problem.

The fans blew their fingers and the duel began.
