Dear readers, how is this volume coming along? As I said, each chapter focuses on the characters and their development. This is a short book so don't expect the monstrous development of Rudel and Razel. I warn you that we are already in the middle of the first half of the volume, in three more chapters it ends and the best part is the interlude. No fanservice this time.
Before we knew it, the days passed quickly and we are now only a week away from the magic sword tournament. The students are excited about it. Even now, our friends Oliver and Isaac are training hard. Alfred will also participate. Sig will be the announcer, he wanted to participate, but the school would not allow the crown prince to fight in a show where he can die. That's right, you can die here. Safety is individual, if you die it's your fault. They should close this school, but that's the way it was in the game. But that's none of our business. Right now, Rei was having a date with Eli and Rose in town. Since classes are closed for self-study, so the students can practice for the tournament. Rei wanted to stretch his legs. He found Rose and Eli having tea. They seem to have become closer. Also, at first glance it seems that her pregnancy is not noticeable, but little by little her belly is already starting to grow. Each of them was holding Rei's arms. Behind us were so
We are finally at the long awaited day. The festival of the magic sword tournament. Starting with the crucial question. why festival being a school event? This event takes place over three days. Today, Friday, being the last day. What happened on the other two days? Well this was developed by a Japanese game company. So it's a school festival in other words. Two days full of games for the students. The classic activities that anime shows about school festival in Japanese schools. The truth. I was excited, there was even drama, I wanted to cry as they did a performance of the robot kid fighting crime. Of course, robots don't exist in this world, so they made him a ghost to make sense. That just leaves the final question. The tournament. It takes place on a Friday because we go to a coliseum set up by the academy where over ten thousand people can enter. This makes people come to the capital to spend. The economy grows thanks to this. For that reason, it is an important
The moment the referee gave the signal, he ran out of the place. In a swift movement, Sieghart stomped his foot and went straight for Rei. Rei could not notice at what moment that old man disappeared and came to stand in front of him. Sieghart used a dull approach sword, it was just like a steel plate. The reason for using such a sword was because a wooden sword would be crushed by his hands. Rei used a cheat skill known as "Reinforcement" which allows him to increase the resistance, attack or defensive power of an object. He gave an approximate 110% defense to the wooden sword and 300% attack. It even added 200% agility to make it move faster. But still, Rei's sword was destroyed. Sieghart's move was purposely used to destroy the sword. Seeing that, everyone gasped. Rogue too, then muttered a story from Sieghart. "I-Incredible. Now that I remember, my father before he died said that he watched as he had fought peer to peer against a sword saint of the empire." "Clementine
The clock read eleven o'clock at night. The lights of the businesses were unlit as they had all closed. Streetlights illuminated every corner. Knights patrolled looking for suspicious people. Walking in the midst of that darkness with lights on the sides were Rei and Zoey holding hands. "Y-You're really planning to go?" "Just shut up and follow me." Rei was grumpy for some reason. After arriving at the restaurant where the duel was supposed to be, a waiter came out and handed him a piece of paper. On that paper was the address of the duel location. Rei didn't say anything, he just read the address and went together with Zoey there. ◇◇◇ After arriving at the designated place, it was a residential area for wealthy people. A large wall covered almost a whole block. They arrived at the gate, there a man in a suit saw them and said. "What's the company for? Do you want to see what they'll do to you?" The man in the suit knew Rei apparently, but Zoey he didn't know, he didn't
"Listen well Calvin." A beautiful day like any other. Birds were singing merrily and farm animals were being tended to give their profits to the farmers. A large territory the size of a village which was known as the Principality of Frazier. It was the setting where a certain eight-year-old boy was receiving an important lesson from his grandfather. "I will tell you the reason why we must take back our kingdom." The boy nodded sitting on his grandfather's lap. Who took out a pipe and after lighting it told him the story of his family. "We Frazier’s were originally from the Brune Kingdom." "They were never called like that, they were just one of the two ducal families that served to protect us in crisis." "Our ancestors were great men and women who gave everything for the country. Even our wealth and treasures were given to the people to help give them a morsel of food." "We used every penny to help them get ahead in life." "What do you think of that?" Little Calvin replied
After rushing to his office, Calvin found Diethard standing looking at the picture of the former king of the principality. Diethard saw him and prostrated himself to greet him. "It is a pleasure to see you healthy my king." "Enough of the formalities. Tell me, did you manage to find out anything?" Diethard smiled in a very ghoulish manner. "I did." ◇ November was progressing normally until one day... "Go to the palace?" Rei, Rose and Eli were in a room at the academy drinking tea. A maid from the academy came to report that Rei was wanted by a palace official. Rose took the message as Rei was lying on a couch. After we got rid of Bertram, it seems the Bartolt family filed a complaint. Someone in the palace threatened them, was what the knight who released Rei from interrogation told us. Rose came and I told Rei the message. He looked at Eli who was also surprised. "I can't know the reason why they are calling you." "In that case, let's go over there." Rei said af
It had been a few hours since we went into the forest. It was already midday. The forest on the outskirts of the capital is vast like a sea. In the game this place was known to be a massive source of experience for leveling up. At every corner we would come across some monster or treasure. I told Rei to look around if there was any chance of hidden treasure, sadly there was none. I feel very disappointed in part. I was hoping for even a small one. Everyone was chatting as we walked on this long trail. ◇◇◇ The person who was guiding them was Isaac as he received a map from his father. On that map was located was marked the villages under attack. Next to him was Oliver who was asking him a lot of questions. "In those places is that where the attacks happened?" "That's right. The funny thing is that the pattern is strange." "Why do you say that?" Oliver asked intrigued. Isaac answered as he brushed some branches away from his face. "The attacks seem to have been done ran
This happened after Rei and Rose left. "That's not how you put up a tent." "But I want to set it up like this Isaac." "Al, I'm telling you this needs to be more spacious so Eli has more mobility." "No, no, no. You do understand that tents are for sharing right? You're using two tents for her alone!" Everyone was setting up their stuff. At that moment while Alfred was stopping Sig from using his sleeping bag to make a bed for Eli. "...!" He became aware of an approaching presence. "Where's it coming from?" "Al?" Alfred looked sideways. (It’s moving around a lot, I can't detect how many there are.) "What's the matter Al?" Sig was asking him, but Alfred wasn't paying attention. Behind them a hooded man ran straight at Sig. Alfred shouted. "Enemy attack!" Everyone reacted to those words. But it was too late. The hooded man was approaching, pulled out a dagger and standing a meter away. "Bacon, guard His Highness!" A voice came from the sky, Alfred raised his head and
