Chapter 109 – 28. Sun vs. Wind (4)
There is no reason why students, who are prospective nobles, should not engage in a duel, a sacred act of nobles.
The academy’s dueling grounds resemble Earth’s soccer fields in both structure and scale. A wide rectangular stage is located in the center, surrounded by spectator seats. Each duelist starts from a position where a soccer goal post would be.
Under the absolute principle that a duel within the academy should not take the life of an opponent, the detailed rules are decided by agreement between the parties.
In this duel, all means, including attributes and tools, are allowed, until one side admits defeat or the referee declares neutrality.
Unlike the closed arena where Elaine and I fought last time, this is a space that can accommodate a large number of spectators. After hearing the rumors, the crowded seats were already full.
Perhaps, it might have been the work of Phorcus or Nicholas that led to this situation. With so many people, it wouldn’t take long for the outcome of the duel to spread beyond the academy and into the aristocracy.
Choi Ji-hoon and Nicholas Bondrania.
One of them will lose here today.
Depending on who wins, the honor of our summoners will also be affected.
I turned my head to the side as Ireina waited on me in the special seat.
“By the way, Amer, I haven’t heard your opinion. Which of the two do you think will win?”
She immediately fulfilled my judgment not to stop the duel.
“Well… I honestly don’t know if it’s because my attributes have nothing to do with combat.”
“Right.”
Is there any creative way to fight with the [Beauty] Attribute?
For example… Such as using a property of an attribute as a curse to put enemies into heat.
I laughed at the momentary imagination.
If the enemy suddenly stops fighting and grabs the crotch and doesn’t stop ejaculation, it would be ridiculous. Could be quite effective?
Of course, the golden jade leaf of the empire, the noble 3rd princess, would probably never go to the battlefield.
[Prince Nicholas Bondrania and Summoner Choi Ji-hoon!! Enter from both sides!!!]
I thought as I looked down at Choi Ji-hoon, who had a serious face in front of so many people.
‘I’m also curious about the white pill that Amer often eats.’
She and I share most of the classes as freshmen, and are in the same group for the ‘Sex and Sex’ class of the fellowship.
She swallowed the so-called ‘rapid side effect medicine’ several times around me, and I couldn’t help but notice the nature of it.
‘Does Amer know? She knows what its ingredients are.’
I’ll have to find Soniel sooner or later. The source of the drug must have been Soniel. What kind of future did he see, so he feeds his younger brother something like that…
“Both sides. Take an oath before the duel.”
“” Glory to the great Kairos Empire and His Majesty the Emperor. I swear by this sword that I will fight an honorable and righteous duel.”
Under the guidance of the referee, a professor of the academy’s public safety department, Choi Ji-hoon and Nicholas were prepared for a duel.
“Begin the duel!”
[Okay, it’s finally started!!!]
The sound exploded. The referee’s declaration, the emcee’s fuss, and the audience’s cheers and cheers mingled to heat up the arena.
At the same time, I also focused the elemental mana on the two pupils and turned on the Cheonan. It was in order not to miss every single detail of the rare fight.
Immediately after, a pair of light blue eyes caught the turbulent flow of air.
A feast of whirlpools swirling at the opponent in an instant.
Boom!!
It creates a sonic boom like a jet flying at supersonic speed, and a fierce and sharp blade rushes at the opponent.
Very quick and immediate. I feel a strong will not to look at it. A nimble, slender movement that most people probably missed.
They could only see the result in their two eyes.
Bright red blood splattered into the air.
Choi Ji-hoon’s eyes widened. Nicholas’s pupils were as calm as the first.
* * *
“Keuuugh!”
Choi Ji-hoon cut off the oncoming sword attack with a large horizontal slash and hurriedly jumped back. His blood gushed out from the cut on his left shoulder, accompanied by a bitter sensation.
[Senior player! Prince Nicholas!!]
It was an unexpected attack, and at an unexpected speed. He didn’t know he’d run as soon as it started, and he didn’t know he could break through such a long distance in an instant.
“Rain, cowardly! How’s the sudden surprise attack?!”
“…What are you talking about. The duel has already begun.”
After the first attack, Nicholas looked at Choi Ji-hoon from where he was originally standing.
Choi Ji-hoon was relieved that he wasn’t attacking because he was a guy, and when he realized that he felt that way, he twisted his brows.
Little by little, bewilderment and fear began to grow in the heart that had been filled with confidence and anticipation.
This, such a pitiful figure was not in his plan.
“You just couldn’t block my attack at all. I could have neutralized you then, but I didn’t do it on purpose.”
Nicholas swung his sword through the air and walked slowly towards his opponent. Choi Ji-hoon kept flinching at the slightest movement in order to react to the sudden attack.
The wound on his left shoulder must be stopped quickly with his right hand, and then he must lay down his sword. He lays down his weapon in front of the enemy. This is a disgraceful act of insulting the opponent, and depending on the referee, it may be regarded as surrender.
Cowardly bastard! He must have aimed for this and cut his shoulder!
“You can’t follow my wishes. So, if you give up and surrender right away, you will be able to avoid a bad situation.”
Nicholas’ arrogant proposal that seemed to stand on top scratched Choi Ji-hoon’s nerves.
“With only one successful attack! Don’t be ridiculous!”
As if laughing at his reaction right after, another sword attack and a belated sonic boom.
Caang!
This time, Choi Ji-hoon’s sword managed to block the attack thanks to his nervousness.
‘It’s heavy!’
However, due to his fast and heavy sword strikes and his left arm not moving as intended, his body lost its balance and leaned.
He immediately rolled onto his side, narrowly avoiding his piercing wound, but a sharp blade grazed his side and cut his second stream of blood into the air.
[Ah, Jihoon Choi! Attack again!! You can’t keep doing this!]
“Huh…”
It’s a shallower wound than the first, but it’s still bitter.
It is a very frightening sensation for Choi Ji-hoon, who has yet to train his pain tolerance, which is an essential skill for a prosecutor.
“Are you sick?”
Nicholas stood still this time, staring at his opponent.
“A woman who was raped by you must have suffered far more than that.”
Choi Ji-hoon raised the corners of his mouth and muttered in response to his criticism.
“What do you say. That year was also in a good mood, and I was gurgling…”
It was a provocation aimed at deliberately stimulating the enemy’s anger and causing them to lose their composure. One of the effective tactics is to shake the opponent mentally and induce them to make mistakes.
But in this case it was a handshake.
Nicholas widened his eyes and rushed again like the wind.
“Pup!”
Choi Ji-hoon screamed and swung his sword. In terms of experience, it was the fastest and most powerful cut since holding the sword in another world. However, in his wounded state, he was unable to fully stop Nicholas’ wrath.
Keying! Caan!
In just two clashes, Jihoon Choi missed the sword in his right hand.
Hooked!
Nicholas’ right foot spun around his left leg as an axis, and deeply lodged in Choi Ji-hoon’s stomach.
“Oooh!”
He vomited the stuff in his stomach and flew through the air, rolling across the arena floor a few times. His head was dizzy from the unprepared shock and the blood that had been pouring out from earlier.
[Ah! Third attack! Jihoon Choi lost his sword!]
Choi Ji-hoon wrung his arms and barely stood up, glaring at his enemy. His sword was abandoned quite far away. He lost his main armament.
Nicholas stayed still with his legs outstretched for a moment, then wrung himself up and demanded again.
“This is your last chance. Surrender, apologize to her family, and accept the punishment. If you can’t, I’ll finish it with the next attack.”
“What the hell! Why are you doing this to me! What does that bitch have to do with you?!”
Choi Ji-hoon was annoyed. An unfair feeling welled up in a corner of his heart. Tears welled up in his eyes as he was saddened by the situation he was in and the bitter pain he was in.
Actually, Nicholas is right. Choi Ji-hoon sprinkled the aphrodisiac given to the commoner woman and ate it with his ‘friends’ overnight.
But he had no guilt whatsoever. Aren’t they just commoners? Isn’t it a lowly existence that can be sacrificed for the pleasure of the aristocrats who lead the empire, and even the few continent-level awakeners?
Moreover, the High One highly recommended this.
‘I’m not at fault.’
Choi Ji-hoon was so happy to be summoned to another world. Since the light from his own cell phone’s flash led everyone to this world, his other classmates must have been unintentionally caught up in his summons.
At first, he had no doubt that his days like the protagonist would unfold in a different world.
But what was the reality like? Choi Ji-hoon has awakened the Continental [Sun] Attribute. This was, of course, a tremendous slope, but it was somewhat lagging behind the mythological and epic levels.
Choi Ji-hoon did not stand out in his academy either. His swordsmanship training and study were not as fun as expected. His entrance exams and midterms were the playground of culprits Jung Ji-hoo and Min Hye-rin.
Even in the Earldom of Cursreal, he did not play any role. He grumbled that the tour of the witchcraft tower was boring, and woke up at one point to find out that the curse had attacked and put tens of thousands of people in danger. And 4 summoners, no heroes, solved it.
Jeong Ji-hoo, Min Hye-rin, Park Min-ho, Seong Ah-young. The four were personally rewarded by the emperor and elevated to the title of honorary viscount.
He should have been there.
Something went wrong.
His own otherworldly friends began asking him to become acquainted with the four of them.
Far from being the main character, being treated like an extra 1 constantly tormented Choi Ji-hoon.
The [Sun] Attribute, which is brighter than anything in the world and should be bright, also actively sympathized with the owner’s critical mind.
He was a man who should have been in a much higher and more splendid position than he is now. He’s not just a maid.
ㅡThe ore was hiding here.
He was excavated by the most brilliant star of the Empire himself.
—-You are not a being to be treated like this.
He did not doubt the value of the summoner Choi Ji-hoon, and gave him the luxury he deserved. Money, luxury, pleasure, and women. He seemed to be distracted every time by a treat that completely reversed his pleasure threshold.
ㅡAccept my support. Let me make you the best
Choi Ji-hoon bowed his head to him. It was voluntary loyalty. From that day on, He led the way he should go.
This duel was also part of that.
Trampling on the arrogant prince and imprinting Choi Ji-hoon’s existence throughout the academy.
He expected an easy victory. In the first place, Nicholas decided that he was no match for him in terms of attributes, and since his attributes also determined various talents, he would not be greatly pushed back in swordsmanship.
However, when I opened the lid, Nicholas’ ability to handle swordsmanship and attributes was unusual.
“You are incorrigible.”
Nicholas’ cold sentences represented his feelings. Everyone in the arena felt it. The Prince will attack the Summoner once more, and this will be the final attack.
[Ah, will it end with this attack?! Everyone! You are now seeing a rare scene where a normal Awakener unilaterally takes down a Continental Awakener!!]
The ignorant moderator spoke freely.
Right after that, the trembling of the air felt on the skin.
The wind that goes ahead, and the sonic boom that follows.
And countless people watching this spectacle.
In front of that huge number of spectators, they couldn’t even fight back and lost in a disgraceful way.
The inside story and outcome of the duel would spread throughout the ecliptic in an instant. Insignificant people will chew and laugh at Choi Ji-hoon’s defeat. It’s like being a celebrity in a dishonorable sense.
You can’t do that.
He is a brilliant being
It is a being that is as bright as the sun in the sky and should be the center of all things like the sun in the solar system.
‘No!’
In front of that desperate wind, Choi Ji-hoon’s [Sun] Attribute began to boil fiercely.
However, Nicholas’ approach was quicker than this.
So Choi Ji-hoon brought out the number he had no intention of using.
He violently yanked the pouch from his waist and threw it at the enemy.
Nicholas’ charge was still halfway unstoppable, so he tried to slash it with the flat side of his sword. However, the pouch burst open and scattered its contents into the air.
The faint pink powder spread in a narrow area and then disappeared, and some penetrated into Nicholas’ body through his nose.
‘Town!’
He flinched his arm because of the body part reacting right away, which bought time for the [Solar] Attribute.
Choi Ji-hoon’s skin turned red. A body that radiates bright light like a flickering flame. His drastic change was not confined to color,
A tremendous radiant heat burst out in all directions around him.
“Keugh!”
To the violence of the merciless heat, Nicholas was the first to fall back. The direct hit was only for a short time, but it seemed that my skin was slightly cooked.
“Yes… This is it…”
Choi Ji-hoon muttered silently with his back unprotected, but Nicholas did not carelessly approach.
The skin exposed outside the clothes was burned all over,
After being hit with some pink powder, the state of his genitals was abnormal.
‘This is something else?!’
He felt devastated at the thrilling sensation of his intimate parts standing firm and squirting liquid.
* * *
‘Wow, he really does that. Madman.’
It was not very nice to see the imagination of the pastime materialized into reality.
Maybe others don’t know what condition Nicholas’ groin is in now.
It’s a sin that the eyes are too good.
‘Well······. Looking at that, it doesn’t seem like the [Beauty] Attribute is useless in battle.’
If I’m not careful, I’ll even damage my allies. Visual and mental splash damage.
So, it’s just that the [Beauty] Attribute isn’t suitable for battle.
Ground ground.
