In the first place, a duel is a sacred way of expressing competitiveness for the knights. It is a matter of honor.
However, no matter what, there will be those who would abandon their honor just for the satisfaction of their ego.
We call those cheaters. No matter what, there will be those who will try to twist the rules of duel or just basically ignore the rules.
And, of course, to counter those types of situations, a referee is a must.
"Yes. However, let me set the conditions. If he wins the duel, I shall forgive him for his deeds; however, if I win, I shall remove both his arms with the Seal of Grafted. Do you accept, Knight Heschel?"
"Yes, I accept."
The moment I stated the conditions of the duel and the other side have accepted it in the presence of everyone, the duel was already appointed, and there was no returning back anymore.
"Then we shall commence with the duel on the sparring arena."
Saying that I walked to the arena for sparring. Albeit it can also be a training ring, how it looks doesn't matter.
"Understood… Then, I shall be your referee. Is that okay for you, young Lord?"
Following me, George asked.
"It is fine. I know you won't show any type of favor. You are an honorable knight."
Slowly waving my hand, I reached the arena.
Entering the circle, I took the position on the edge.
/HOWL/ /HOWL/
Since the outside was stormy, from time to time, the sound of wind brushing the windows could be heard.
Following me, Heschel also entered the arena.
You might be wondering why he did such a thing at the entrance.
The reason is that this guy was actually a side character in the game. He had a crush on Alicia the moment he saw her for the first time, and he tried so hard to get into her eyes. Albeit, he was nothing but a piece of entertainment for the people who liked watching characters getting NTR'd. He had no role other than that since he lost his will to fight after seeing Arthur's power at a certain point, gave up his love, and became a normal background character.
How pathetic he was.
Just for that stupid reason called 'love,' he hated Callius and was jealous of him in the past, always trying to ridicule him from his back….
Although I can't understand how that little brain of his works, that still seems to be the case.
/SCHLINK/
Slowly drawing my partner from its scabbard with a smooth sound, I turned myself to the arena.
Since I was already planning to duel with knights today, my clothes were already prepared.
Looking around, I saw Heschel was also ready. Since he is still young, he is not an official member of the knights but a knight apprentice.
Therefore, the armor and sword he had himself were also a little different from the normal ones. However, since this is a sword duel, there is no need to use heavy armor since every person's magic and aura will be limited to the 1-star.
Coming closer to my side, George asked.
"Young Lord, since you have decided on a sword duel, please let me commence with the formalities."
"You are permitted."
Extending my hand, I let him put the bracelets on my wrist.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
