Chapter 5 - This is a struggle I must face

[Lucky Toss! - Toss a coin to get a bonus effect for your skills! Before tossing, you must decide whether 'Heads' or 'Tails'. If you fail, then a bonus effect won't be granted.]

It was a very random skill!

Vayve didn't really get sad about it though. He was becoming closer to the term 'MC', so such 'Lucky Toss' got quickly accepted by him.

Which MC doesn't really on luck?

"So you've chosen death."

While Vayve had a little leisure to look at the description of his new skill, Bibur wasn't really waiting for him to end reading at all. He was as decisive as before, his body lunging at Vayve. From afar, it surely looked like two kids playing.

But one of these kids has a dagger, so is it really a play?

Surely not!

"Not a death, but a path!"

But Vayve himself was different as well. He became a little more decisive, but in the current situation, it was simply the best.

His small hand reached for a coin in his pocket, then throwing it at Bibur, Vayve began running to the other end of the room. The first throw was a simple throw without any magic, thus, Bibur just snickered as he found it pitiful.

Though he was well aware that Vayve should possess something unique as a MC.

He himself had a special skill related to his dagger.

"Idiot! Where is your staff, huh? No, as an MC, you don't have to use staff, right? Piece of shit like you can't even point your magic at me! You will die at the bottom of the food chain!"

A lot of curses and humiliating words left the mouth of Bibur!

Listening to those, Vayve just tossed his coin slightly! He couldn't be bothered by this man's attitude anymore! The small coin spun slightly! With his eyes deeply looking at it, Vayve muttered his choice and patiently waited for it to fall onto his palm.

As soon as it fell, his small hand clenched and quickly unrevealed the result.

[You have gotten 100% accuracy.]

'Alright!'

Boom!

Vayve's back hit the wall as he reached the dead-end!

His eyes were looking at the 'killer' who was getting closer with each second! Though there was already a change that could be seen clearly on Vayve!

Not even shaking, his eyes stood clear and convinced.

Coin Toss!

Shu!

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Thanks to the lucky toss, Vayve wasn't really trying to aim at all. He just clenched his hand tightly, then soaking a coin in the raw magic, Vayve prepared a deadly weapon for himself.

As both of them were seven years old, it was truly a deadly weapon!

Thus, the moment a coin left his palm, Vayve just raised his eyes a little and the sight of Bibur grabbing his eye could be seen.

The 100% accuracy allowed Vayve to thoroughly destroy the eye of his opponent. Within his mind, Vayve also had a slight hope for Bibur to just die, but it was either plot armor or simply a strong body of someone who can wield 'a magic'.

Nevertheless, the first coin toss used on the enemy was a successful one! It was also highly effective and the loud steps of 'adults' could be heard! Before Vayve could react, the maids and his mother entered the room and found out about everything that happened!

"Vayve, what happened?!"

His mother was naturally worried as Bibur is from a noble family! Of course, her eyes could already see well that her son wasn't wounded at all. He also stood composed as if nothing bad happened at all!

"Mom... Bibur just wanted a spar!"

"A spar?"

"Yes! He said that my magic talent is high! As high as his skills in the dagger, so he wanted to spar! But he was too weak!"

"Ah... I see."

Miss Ranria sighed, then ruffled the hair of her son for a while before turning to Bibur who was on his knees. His hands were around his right eye that was surely no longer here... There was a lot of blood to the point where a 'composed heart' of Vayve began pounding uncontrollably fast.

It wasn't only because of the blood, but also because of the beast-like gaze of Bibur! Strangely enough, it was more threatening with one eye.

"Little Bibur, though it will be hard to heal your eye, I am sure your family will be willing to spend enough money on the medicine. Didn't you say your talent is high?"

Miss Mother said innocently, then used a little of her magic to stop the bleeding. There was a small scroll in her hand that was releasing some unknown to Vayve magic particles.

"Thank you, aunt... I believe in my talent and family."

As Bibur felt a pain soothing a little, he muttered these words with his teeth clenching hard! It was yet again a scary display, but for everyone else, it looked as if he was too sad about 'losing'.

It was quite strange for Vayve though.

His mother didn't ask him whether he is okay mentally. There weren't really any wounds on him, but he just got rid of an eye on a human being! It was surely something not normal yet for this world's standards...

'It might be not that strange... for kids to fight to the point where they lose a part of their body... At least it looks like buying medicine to heal his eye thoroughly is going to cost them big...'

Soon enough, Bibur left the household of Ranria... Before leaving, he sent death threats at Vayve with his other eye, but the young man was already accustomed to such glare! At least Vayve built up some resistance against Bibur's mental attacks.

It looked like his mother also had to go out with Bibur just to mitigate the rage of Bibur's father.

Thus, Vayve was all alone in his own room.

"Ha... Ha... Ha..."

His breathing increased suddenly, but such change was thanks to his determination! Now that everything was over, Vayve could process the whole event deeply, thus, his heart and body began shaking hard.

'This is a struggle... I must face.'

-

"Henri."

"Yes, Miss?"

"You are free for today."

After Miss Ranria spoke a little to Bibur's father, she left their household with a proud look! She was followed by a head maid of her own household whose name was Henri. This very maid stopped as her miss called her out.

Furthermore, she knew the reason for her sudden 'free time'.

"You know what to do."

"Yes, I know. Leave it to me, Miss~~"

It was to spread about a little incident that happened between Bibur and Vayve in a favor to her young master! A lot of maids from different households know each other as they frequently see each other in the city!

Thus, it was time for gossip.
