Weeks passed and this time, Luginas find himself seated in spectator view.
Below is the sections of people, seated in spherical 360 degree to view what was or will happening below. To be exact. A Dome or Colosseum.
What they were going to witness this time is a duel between the Hero and an Adventurer who have their beef last two weeks ago.
It doesn't matter to almost everyone who are holding this scenario because, duel is, although a fight to the death. It is a fight to honor ones pride or ideology. No matter what beef it cause for two person to fight to the death. This people here doesn't care at all.
Its for their own entertainment, to feasted their eyes in this gruesome, bloody yet exhilarating and enjoyable show.
Below this, is a man with golden cravat and flashy gears with golden shaded white sword, a cape and a golden thin crown engraved with emerald colored jewel in front who only covers the man's forehead.
He has a humble-looking face with good physique and stature. Looking a this posture with hands over his hilt. Its safe to assumed that he was the one who honors this duel.
"I don't have any grudge on you but its your fault for causing an injure on my woman!" So he said. He is the Hero of neighbouring Kingdom, Etiopeia. It happens that he came in this Kingdom for some errand but for some reason his party bump up into one of S Class Adventurer. Joy Merrily.
Joy Merrily. On the other hand, has undistinguished gender with thin body and physique but because it has an Amarian, rather, the child of Amazon and a Barbarian. It has the relentless physical attribute stronger than that of a rock. They say its a 'she' with just a flatboard chest or a 'he' because of its thin but muscular biceps, calves and abs.
But the person in question didn't even tell its own gender. So it only called, 'Joy'. Until the current moment, even Luginas didn't know if joy is a she or a he even though he always trained it. Just that Joy's voice is like a teenage boy so he rather called Joy a he.
With that note aside. Joy as a Amarain or a Bamazon. It equipped with only a copper colored greaves, shinguard, chest plate, back plate, arm vest, a gauntlet and a trouser. Its biceps, abs, calves and tight is clearly visible so not just Luginas but majority called Joy as a 'he' just looking at his equipment and physique.
Pointing out at the same moment, calling himself Matsuyo. The man silently draws his sword and pointed it in his opponent.
"I can't forgive you!" He said.
Joy at the same time, unsheathed his sword who looks like a rapier with its thin looks with its sharp edge on each side.
Although it didn't express its feelings, surprisingly, Joy this time form a cold smile and reply "Cunts should be cut, yes?"
Thus after hearing him, Matsuyo gritted his teeth. His woman after his arrival has her arm cuts off. No matter what the reason, it is nothing but unforgivable.
Remembering such, Matsuyo don't know what happened during then, so he didn't put any thought and sprinted forward slicing Joy whilst the latter blocked it and rocketed back. What happened later is like phenomenon cause by a certain someone on a certain kingdom, on a city scale. Good thing they've stopped by the guild master on that area. And yes, after that is where this event escalates.
A duel between two individual. A fight to the death where only one will emerged victorious!
The King of Etiopeia wanted to stop the fight because it was his hero who run amok and asks for a duel in the first place, but Matsuyo didn't back down his words. Gritting his own nail while watching. The Etiopeian King looked towards the 'Last Sage' asking to let the battle stop before one of the two will die.
For others it matters not, but for Guild Elders and a Kingdom higher ups to lose their S Class and a Hero. Its nothing but stupidity.
So the Eriopeian King and Guild Elders made a decision not to made this battle into a deathmatch.
Ting-------!
Bell echoes as the battle initially started. Hearing it, the Colosseum turned into a deadly silent.
Clashing sword and its earpiercing sound, echoes and the Hero and Adventurer; dances where not every spectators could be seen.
Dusts covers the area but wind affinity magician cleared the view, enough for everyone to witnessed this spectacle.
Cclang---!
One swung down his sword while another welcomed it using horizontal. Kicking off the dusts, Joy twists its feet and kneed the hero but it was blocked by the latters' hand and swept his feet to continue his current momentum, pushing the adventurer!
Joy at the same time, let go with the flow, letting his body flew whilst made others cry in disbelief. Why Joy didn't fight back? In terms of strength alone, Joy can pushes the hero back but Luginas whistled.
"Will the guild master enlightened me?" From his side is the 'Last Sage' Grunt. Although proficient in magic, she doesn't get what Joy is currently thinking.
"They fought once, so Joy might know every technique and habit of that hero. Although Crowley aside, Joy is without a doubt a prodigy in terms of wits and battle instinct. The same reason why he is an S class even with only an [Appraisal] Traits" So did Luginas concurred.
And just how he commented, after being pushed back by a hero, the hero ultimately ducked his body with his leg pinning unto the ground in firm and sheathed his sword, he then bellow: "Drawing Art: [Arcane Slash]!"
But before he completely finish his 'habit', Joy uses its hand and spun, returning itself below the hero even with Matsuyo's ducked position, he then and kicked the former's supposedly firmed leg.
Making him stumble on his own with cracking sound of bone, successively while twisting in pain, his hand holding sword cuts by Joy's. Making it hurl above.
"Arghhh!!!"
As if waiting for 'it' to happen. The battle is already concluded. The arm of Matsuyo landed five meters behind as he scream in pain. Blood gushing out simultaneously.
Joy successively raised his hand and wanting to end this hero's career right here right now but he back pedalled.
Black-like dragon aura wanted to consumes him who simultaneously curling the hero so he pointed his sword to where the source is coming from, and surprised his master is watching...
"Eh?" Joy jolted in surprise.
Luginas only nodded from his reaction with his eyes closed. Of course it was his aura who covers the hero, made Joy retreated for a bit.
As if saying "stop it" by the former. Joy sighed and sheathed his sword.
Guild masters already arrived besides the hero before Joy fully retreated, thinking it was them who intimidates their adventurer.
From the sideline, Grunt chuckles. Believing that even with that guild masters without Gin, they cannot stop the inevitable. The inevitable death of a Hero.
In another area, the King of Etiopeia sigh deeply, making his body hanged in his chair as if his soul snapped up for good!
"Thank god!" So he claimed. Thanking that his hero didn't die today. Life cannot be return but a missing limb can.
S Class adventurers are scary! So he noted.
Telling his people later not to play with any of this adventurer anymore. After all, Joy Merrily. Is the weakest active S Class adventurer right now!
