Today is a match between me and Luisa-sama.

 I had a match with my sister Leah, so we decided to have a match on another day.

 It's the first time we've had a match in about five years.

 That time it was a sword match, not a magic match.

 Luisa won the martial arts tournament.

 I lost by a foul.

 I think it would be good if we could show each other how much we've both improved.

 

 We moved to the magic arena where the match was to be held.

 "Ca~, Elias-kun~, you're so cool~"

 "Elias-sama~, wonderful~."

 "Luisa-sama, I adore you~"

 "Luisa-sama, don't lose~"

 The cheers are 50-50.

 I feel that the number of female fans carrying a fan with my face and the letters L-O-V-E on it is increasing with each match.

 Many of Lady Luisa's fans are females.

 Her dignified atmosphere probably attracts the ladies.

 The referee is Vice-principal Walmond.

 Marine is my homeroom teacher and Axel is Louisa's homeroom teacher, so basically they can't be referees.

'It's an interesting match-up. What about the pieces? Elias is tenth in the ranking and Luisa is third, so you can't bet on the pawn."

 I and Luisa are seven places apart in the ranking order.

 So I can't bet on pawns.

 It's all right if it's a knight or above.

"I bet a knight."

 There is no need to put pressure on myself by betting on more pieces than I have to.

 It's a knight instead of a pawn.

"I'll take the pawn."

Louisa-sama is also a safe bet.

'Then begin!"

 I launch the Magic Ice Dragon and the Magic Thunder Dragon.

 Louisa-sama also sends out a Magic Ice Bird.

 Both of us went full throttle right from the start.

 Louisa-sama's Magic Ice Bird attacks me, but I easily avoid it.

 This time, my Magic Ice Dragon and Magic Thunder Dragon go towards Louisa-sama, but Louisa-sama prevents them with her ice wall.

'You're good, Elias."

'You too, Luisa-sama."

"Things will not be as they were five years ago."

'What are you talking about? It was you who won that time, Luisa-sama."

"I don't agree with that. And neither do you. I've been chasing behind you."

"I'm honoured, but you're taking it too far."

 The strength of Luisa was demonstrated in the match with sister Leah.

 Sister Leah's Magic Thunder Beast Lion King was amazing.

 How could she have blocked it?

 She is skilled with the sword, but she also seems to have a talent for magic.

 My Magic Ice Dragon and Magic Thunder Dragon are blocked by Louisa-sama's ice wall.

 I avoided Louisa-sama's Magic Ice Bird.

 The standoff was still continuing, but the Magic Thunder Dragon broke through the ice wall and inflicted damage for the first time.

'Damn it, .......'

 I folded further.

 Louisa-sama was protecting herself with strengthening magic, but that won't last long either.

 The Magic Ice Dragon and the Magic Thunder Dragon hit Louisa-sama.

"Ah..

 I think the game is already won.

'What will you do now? Shall we continue?"

 Deputy Headmaster Walmond confirms.

'I would have said in the past that I could not lose easily ...... as it is the duty of the royal family. But it also takes courage to admit defeat honestly. I have lost."

"Winner, Elias!"

'Wow..! Elias, you're incredible"!

"You're the best, Elias-sama!

'It's just like five years ago. No, the gap is wider than it was five years ago.'

'It's not like that, it was a good match. Heel.'

 A pale light wraps around Luisa-sama.

'You are as naive as ever, But that's what ...... no, I'm not going to say it here. Elias, now I have something to tell you.'

'Yes, what is it?'

'Strength is not everything in this world. It's not about losing, it's about growth for me.'

"That's good. I think so too".

 Thus ended the match between me and Luisa.

 Looking around at the audience, the scene from five years ago came to mind.
