As soon as I got back to the ground, I headed to Senior Yuri's room.

It's to ask her. But the room was a mushroom.

When I spoke to my dorm mother, she filed for suspension and she didn't come back for a month.

I don't know what she's thinking. I suspect she was a mastermind, both the boar's compound and the Tyrannos thing. But... if it was pure malice, you wouldn't have called for rescue if you were wrong. On the contrary, I even think you're trying to give us moderate trials and make us stronger.

And ten days had passed and the day of fate, the day of the duel between Anne and Klanel, was finally upon us.

Anne's magic circuit was completely demodulated, and the Tirano Demon Stone was used to lift the [grid] to the middle of Rank 2 as well. There is no anxiety element.

We've been in King's Capital for three days now, and we've been treated like guests.

Probably that king's consideration.

And I'm coming to the duel today.

In addition to the luxurious VIP seats available, they are no different from the coliseum in the sealed city of Erin.

Various battles are fought here, including a martial arts tournament that determines the best knights of the year and a wagering match where slaves fight each other.

"I'll be there. Sauge, Kuna"

In the waiting room, Anne, equipped, smiled.

I'm not nervous or excited. Ideal condition to quietly increase concentration.

It's Anne's strengths to be able to behave like this before a game where you bet everything about yourself.

"Anne, it's a complete away, so be prepared."

Yes, this is the royal knee.

Even the servants who took care of us felt hostility towards Anne at every step of the way.

The blame of being a sinner's daughter still annoys Anne here.

"I'm used to it. Besides, if Sauge and Kuna would stay next door, I wouldn't mind the outfield."

Anne smiles when she says so. She has also become much more difficult.

"…… hey, Kuna. I just want to talk to Sauji and I for a minute. May I?"

Asked by Anne, Kuna smiles after a slight shuddering face.

"Fine. Okay, Sage. I'll head over to the VIP table first."

If you say so, Kuna walks away. I whispered when I left, and I heard Anne tell me to hang in there.

The only ones left in the room are me and Anne.

I had a little quicker heartbeat. Anne's atmosphere made it so.

Anne coughed and opened her mouth.

"Thanks for everything, Sauge. Sauge was here, so I got here. If Sauji wasn't here, I wouldn't be here. Instead of Kvar Beste being taken away, he couldn't even protect his life."

"You're welcome. It's the master's effort to protect his pretty apprentice."

When I give it back, Anne smiles.

Then, uplift your cheeks and take half a step forward. Just a little closer than usual.

"I'm the one who just got it for Sauge, but I want to be the one whose back I can leave to Sauge one day.... I'm still short on strength, but if I win here today and I'm recognized as the bearer of Kvar Beste, I feel like I can break one of my shells."

Anne had certainty in her eyes. Her confidence is not wrong.

Having acquired my teachings and drawing on the power of Kvar Beste, she is growing with great momentum.

"Win, Anne."

"Absolutely. I can't beat anyone but Sauge. I don't want to lose.... So watch. 'Cause if Sauji's gonna look at it, he's gonna win."

"I'm rooting for you in the audience. Hang in there."

"Yeah."

Anne nods. It's almost time for a duel. You won't be able to stay any longer.

"It's time for me to go."

Walk out with your back to Anne.

"Sauge!"

Anne called me louder than usual. Looking back.

Anne was right there. Then he turned his hand around the back of my neck and pressed his lips.

Just a kiss for the lips to touch.

Would she have done so for about ten seconds, Anne tides her cheeks and opens her mouth with a smile as beautiful as she loves it.

"This is my first kiss. Love it, Sauge."

And Anne rushed over to the match venue.

I'll hold my lips. I watched as Anne disappeared.

After standing in the waiting room for a while, he moves over to the VIP table.

This is the best seat to see a duel well.

This VIP seat has been reserved on the orders of the King.

As soon as I entered my room, the inferior gaze of the nobles around me pierced me and my hissohisso voice echoed around me.

Sitting in the designated seat, he speaks to the couna sitting next to him.

"Sounds more popular than I expected."

"Right. I didn't think there were so many people out there."

Anyway, the VIP seats are full, even the aristocrats who would hate to be with the average person even if they were dead are swamped into the general seats to watch the game.

It seems to be popular not only with nobles, but also with the general public, and stands up and still doesn't seem to be able to accommodate guests.

"Sauji, just in case, I ask, you're not making another bet, are you?

"It depends on what you do. I bet all my money on Anne."

"I care a lot, and I'm addicted to gambling,... I can't save you"

"…… Kuna, Anne is going to bet everything to try the game. I should bet everything, too, right?

"Besides, I used Anne as an excuse"

Kuna looks at me with jito eyes.

I whistled and pretended not to notice.

After a while of silence, Kuna looks at me with a grudge and reluctance.

"Um, Sauji. When we're alone, Anne's something."

It was in the middle of Kuna's words. The audience becomes noisy at once.

"Anne's out."

Anne was appearing in a square stone ring when she looked at the duelling ground.

A curse that echoes simultaneously.

”Traitor," ”traitor," ”shameless," ”whore." Full of unbearable words to hear.

I desperately send Yale to Anne in the meantime.

"Kuna, what is it?

"No, it's nothing."

Kuna smiles bitterly and turns her gaze towards Anne. And hang in there - I screamed. Anne notices this way and waves.

"Next door, excuse me."

As the two of us watched Anne, a nice man sat next to us.

"Sire, is it okay? I can't believe you could come next to me or something."

Yes, the king, the man.

Both the nobles around him and the king's caregiver looked at this one with a grumpy expression.

"Fine. Originally, I like talented young people. I beat Cranell Feirate in rank one, and it's not unnatural to like you."

The king smiles at me.

The surrounding wind is moving strangely. I see, are you magically controlling the servants so that they don't leak sound?

"… I ask you straight in. You didn't come here to talk to the public, did you?

"This is tough. I am. I came to thank you. [M] Thank you for supporting” Anne. "

The king speaks in a gentle tone.

I don't bow my head just because I have eyes.

And I was surprised. Much naturally, he put it in his mouth with Anne, not Annelotta. This is not how unfamiliar I am to say it.

"That kid is like a daughter to me. If it's true, I wanted to protect you no matter what you switch to."

The king's fist is trembling.

Even if he was a king, no, he probably couldn't move because he was a king.

But there are things that don't make sense. The discomfort creeps up on my chest.

"I just reached out. It was Anne who fought and won."

"... but because you were there, Anne could stand up. And because you kept supporting me, I could grow to this point. Sooner or later, let's give it some form of reward."

With that word, I could play something in me.

Your voice gets rough when they say you're the king of this country.

"Don't be silly, Your Majesty. We're fighting for our dreams. You're offering a reward!? I would ask His Majesty not to use it to wipe away his guilt. That doesn't make your sins go away. I have trouble being satisfied with that. You should suffer sin for the rest of your life"

I throw up in a squeezing voice.

"You know what?

Without the subject, the king dared to ask in an ambiguous way.

"Do you ask me that?

"No, I'm sorry. Forget it."

The moment I say I know, the king will have to punish me.

This question goes hand in hand with the death sentence.

"But I just want you to accept my thanks. My thanks to you for helping Anne are from my heart."

"… Indeed. I just received my feelings. Don't bring in any extras, and now just watch Anne fight. If the word" Your Majesty "is true that you like the brilliant young man you once said, you will see the best. Yes, the glow of Anne."

I had a smiling smile.

Then he worked on the Spirit of the Wind and began to pick up Anne's movements and voice.

I want to feel a little closer to her movements as a master.
