Chapter 105 – Duels

It’s obvious, but it’s not something you can do just because you want to duel.

If that was the case, it was obvious that it would be misused by snickering a guy you don’t like in a dark place and insisting that it was a duel.

First, the fact of the duel must be publicized and justified, then it must be held openly in front of observers and the public.

As much as the people of Eurelia are sensitive to honor, they are also quite sensitive to duels, the last bastion to protect their honor.

Well, other than that, the rules are a bit loose….

But somewhere here

Isn’t it an academy that gathers only talented people from all continents and gathers them in one place during the peak of their blood?

Even the students in class C, the lowest, are people who have heard of gifted children in their hometowns.

Most of them have strong egos, so if you stay together, there will inevitably be some friction.

So, the academy even organized a dueling committee.

All duels between academy students must go through the committee, with consequences up to and including expulsion.

In other words. He shouted out loud on the market street, but it was said that a real duel application would be made only when the relevant documents were filled out and handed over.

“Something is plain.”

“Everything in human life is like that.”

He smiled and submitted the written documents along with the previously prepared crystal ball.

Since all the scenes in the alley were filmed, there would be no reason for the duel to be rejected.

… When I think about it like this, it seems like I put in some kind of complaint.

Come to think of it, maybe it’s a bit similar?

“By the way, Master. Who is Frank Miller, did he pop out of nowhere? Is he really spreading rumors?”

“Yes? Well? I’m not sure?”

“… Yes?”

“But what is certain is that he is a cult.”

“Ah.”

She didn’t mention exactly what kind of cult she was, but Karla, who understood it perfectly, opened her eyes wide.

I don’t know if it’s actually related to the rumor now or not.

But if I win the duel, I might be able to ask for a proper investigation.

If it turns out that he is the culprit of the seething silence, the rumors about me will naturally fade.

The moment someone turns rice cakes, ‘That’s a rumor from cultists…’ You, maybe… Because the atmosphere of ‘.’ Will be formed.

Well, that would be embarrassing for Frank.

I, who had never met her face, singled out myself and claimed to be a cult.

“Maybe it’s someone you know, Carla. She’s a 3rd year Magic Faculty.”

“I only knew the name. When I became a lieutenant wizard, the professors asked me to give a lecture to the juniors, so I remember seeing it on the list. … I don’t remember the face very well.”

“I guess so. Whether it’s the Perception-Defying Power or something else, it’s probably killing the existence anyway.”

It’s to the point where you can sneak into the Good Gods Church Union. There’s no way even Carla could see through that.

Faye, who had come to help me fill out the application form for a duel, overheard our conversation and stabbed me in the side in bewilderment.

“Brother! Junior! Isn’t that a very dangerous story?! You don’t even check, you’re a cult! If you do, you’re going to get into big trouble for your junior?!”

“A. Do not worry. Because you can know everything. Rather, tell me something about Pelop.”

“Pelop?”

Fei frowned as if she was offended by just hearing her name.

He squeezed Faye’s forehead and nodded her head.

“Yes. Surely you, the production department, won’t come to the duel yourself? According to the academy rules, a champion will be found among the same students, but I was curious about who would come out.”

In the past, it is said that he used a family member or an outside mercenary as an agent.

Until then, the children’s fights turned into family fights.

Just as students were banned from going out on weekdays, duels were also restricted by the academy.

What started at the academy will end at the academy.

“… I’m talking about this now, but can’t you just send your juniors as agents? You say you have a lot of money! I don’t have to accept the next donation, so let’s find someone else. Yes?”

“A. Then the impact is lacking. It’s kind of a warning. That’s why I applied for a duel in succession, and why I deliberately dragged him out of an alley and declared a duel on the market street.”

“Ugh… Having said that, I have nothing to say… Am I really okay? Right now is enough, so I don’t want juniors to get hurt.”

“I told you, Senior Faye. It’s kind of a warning.”

It is to let people know what will happen if they carelessly touch me or my people.

I’m not a production department with no direct combat power like Pelop, so I’m pulling back? This is just another chew.

And this will become a weakness for those around me, not for me.

Fei, who had a blank expression for a moment at my determined attitude, nodded her head while blushing for some reason.

“Yes… If your junior says so. Still, if you need anything for a duel, just tell me. I’ll make it all yes.”

“Oh! Then make me a Philosopher’s Stone!”

“… Only what I can make!”

“Then, a homunculus that is 1:1 size with Fei-senpai….”

“You can’t even make that?! Rather, where are you going to use a homunculus that looks just like me?!”

“Of course, I tried to hug and sleep every day as Mrs. Juk.”

“Ugh! Wasn’t I the master’s wife?!”

Fei is frightened, and Carla is shocked at the same time.

Elisha watched the scene for a while and whispered softly.

“Oh, they play so cute. Right you?”

“They’re both older than me, but they’re cute. But are you not interested? The seat of my dead wife.”

“Oh? Did you think I would cling to your ankles like Carla?”

Chew!

Elisha, who opened the new fan she bought this time and covered her mouth, smiled softly.

“You promised last time, right? He said that someday he would make me his companion. The wife’s position is promised, but there’s no way I’m sorry for the position of Jukbu.”

“Her….”

No confidence

It’s what I said, but don’t you believe it too hard?

Of course, I intend to protect it, but….

Anyway, how many times did you have to play around like that?

Faye opened her mouth with a much more comfortable face than before.

“Pelop Brondel is the head of the Brondel family.”

“Eh? Are you only a count? Just looking at his words, he looks like a grand duke’s child….”

A high title does not necessarily mean a strong family. But it is also true that there is a general tendency to do so.

From the count to the high-ranking nobles, the count was never a position to be ignored.

It wouldn’t be to the point of openly bullying in an academy overflowing with higher-ranking people.

“Earl Brondel is also an excellent alchemist. To the point where he was given the position of sub-guildmaster of the Levantine Empire Alchemy Guild. I mean.”

“So that’s why you were so condescending.”

Youngju So at home, the son of the deputy guild leader outside?

Even after I came to the academy, I couldn’t change my habit. Most of them would have figured it out.

Come to think of it, as you progress through the pay route, there is something about being involved with the alchemy guild.

Roughly summed up, it can be seen that the guild, which ignored Fei, saying that it was impossible, regrets, obsesses, and suffers from Fei, who actually produces luxury equipment.

In the process, the deputy guild leader is the representative of the executives who gave Fei a lot of praise and later got demoted.

Oh my gosh. This is how it connects

For a while, I thought it was a little strange. Fay spoke cautiously.

“Anyway, since that’s the case, there will be plenty of champions to replace. No matter what we do in the future, in the end what the academy teaches is how to fight….”

“As you fight, you become inseparable from the potion.”

“Yes. … Ah! Still, the Pelop side was at fault this time, so fighting instead is a bit bad for the image, right?”

“I know roughly. The rewards are great, but since reputation is being cut, it will be mainly for students who are in a hurry.”

This is a system implemented in H&A as well. Sometimes when you play, you have to duel.

It’s okay if you just step out for a combat job, but if you’re playing as a production character that’s a non-combat job, a substitute engineer is essential.

At this time, if you have legitimacy in yourself, it is easy to find a character who values ​​honor, and conversely, if it is in the opponent, it is easy to find a character who values ​​rewards.

Since the criterion is money, it is roughly divided into nobles and commoners.

In general, the aristocrats had jobs evenly distributed, whereas the commoners had an overwhelmingly high proportion of knights.

There’s also a bit of a lag behind in terms of skills.

The beauty of the dueling system is to roughly predict the opponent’s champion and prepare in this way.

When it was a game, the characters who appeared were limited, so it was possible to predict who would appear as an opponent, but now that it has become a reality, it is a bit difficult.

Still, there is something that can be roughly inferred.

Of course, if it’s me now, if it’s not an exceptional opponent like Karla or Elisha, I’m confident that I can win no matter who comes out….

After Pelop, you have to duel with Frank, and you have to be as overwhelming as possible, so there’s nothing bad to know.

On the day of the duel.

As soon as I saw Pelop’s champion against me, I laughed out loud.

“Honey.”
