Mayumi didn't know what to think anymore. One after another, the surprises she received from Jerome is getting more and more ridiculous.
Even so, she was really grateful that he always finds time to go sightseeing. If you asked her, the only downside in this trip is that he was practically bragging, showing off all his achievements for the last two years.
Little by little, she discovered all the things that happened to him. Starting from the moment he left to begin his own adventure.
According to him, he met his wife in the forest near the territory of the elven race. He invited her on a journey and as time goes by they fell in love with each other.
When they arrived in this kingdom, the residents discovered that he wielded the legendary sword of an ancient hero. It was due to this that the people of this nation hailed him as their king.
Mayumi felt like straggling someone after hearing his brief narration.
This punk is so lazy. He really simplified all the details.
She silently sighed with her best friend's antics. She knew that he was busy so she let it go.
Later on, she received an invitation from Jerome to oversee his so-called 'King's Conquest'. He said that it was a peaceful way he developed to settle arguments between different nations.
Usually, a challenger would issue a challenge, if he deemed that it was worth it, he would agree to a duel. Both parties will set a wager and the winner will take it all.
As the duel started, Mayu was inwardly mocking the challenger. On her perspective, it was like a video game. There was exchanges of magic and action-packed moves. But what she didn't expect was seeing the severed head flying off beside her. The warm blood pulled her back to reality.
This is not a game. This was a cruel reality.
