"Okay then this dual starts now"
As Hugh started the duel, Andrew began to rush toward Roy with his sword.
"I will finish this duel in one go."
Andrew was moving quickly to strike Roy's chest. But Roy still stood in his place.
Just as Andrew's sword was about to touch Roy's chest, Roy slammed his kick on Andrew's chest. Roy's strike was so fast that Andrew did not even get a chance to escape the blow. And Andrew, being dragged down on the ground, fell backward.
"Did you come with only that much strength to face me, Weakling? You are really so weak, I probably won't even need to use my sword."
Andrew was covered in mud on the ground below and looked at me angrily.
I knew Roy's specialty was speed and magic, but I had no idea that Roy would be so fast. I felt like my reaction speed had gone too fast. Roy was really strong.
I looked at Andrew as he stood up from the ground, getting ready to strike me again with a sword.
'I have to shatter all his confidence.'
It is only when Andrew realizes his weakness in the game that Andrew's heroism begins. I will have to break him completely. If I fail in this, then there will be much bigger trouble.
"Your destiny is to live on the ground. Why did you stand up?"
Roy was laughing, making fun of him.
"At first you were able to hit me, but now I won't let that happen."
Andrew proceeded to attack me again.
"I am the son of a knight, therefore-"
Andrew started attacking me, this time towards my throat. He was running towards me.
"Don't Make the Mistake of Thinking Me Weak."
Andrew shouted and started hitting on me. Just as his sword was about to touch Roy's body, Roy grabbed Andrew's hand with his left hand and then slammed him to the ground and kicked him in the chest.
And Andrew was dragged back this time even further away than before.
"Fighting a fellow like you is not even equal to fighting an elephant with an ant. You are so weak that I don't even need to use my sword to fight you. You deserve to be lying on the ground like this."
Roy was making fun of him, and he was looking at Andrew as if looking at someone lower than him.
Andrew stood up again, removing the sand from his mouth.
"Let me show you that even an ant can defeat an elephant."
Andrew extended a hand to me.
All the people who were standing with us started panicking after seeing this.
"Andrew, don't be crazy. You can't use magic."
Hugh was stopping Andrew from hitting me with magic.
"Magic was not forbidden in this duel."
Andrew was looking at me. The fire of defeating me was burning in his eyes.
"Thunder"
As soon as he said this, rays of electricity came out of his hands and started coming on me.
"Roy, Be careful!"
Seeing this, Harrison was worried about me.
"Now you will know what is the result of judging others as weak."
As soon as the lightning beam was about to reach Roy, Roy raised a hand.
"Dispel"
As soon as he raised his hand, all the lightning went back into Roy's hand.
"H-how?"
"How is this possible? What was it just now?"
Everyone was looking at Roy in surprise.
'Thank God. That I can use the attack shown in the game.'
When the magic power of the protagonist will high, then he could able to learn this. But Roy's magic ability is many times more than Andrew's, so whatever he can attack later at the end of the game, I can do that now.
"Is that all?"
This attack was not even near as far as shown in the game.
And so, I was able to neutralize this attack. Right now, Andrew is very weak, which was proved by this attack.
Now I have to make him face its weakness.
"H-How did y-you do this to my thunder attack-"
"Thunder?"
Roy laughed aloud as Andrew spoke as if he was insulting him by laughing at him.
The rest were also surprised to see this, but Harrison looked at me with a smile. He believed in Roy's strength. After all, he had always seen him train.
"Do you call it Thunder? This happens when a weak person always comes across as a weak person; he makes a fool of himself to judge himself as strong. You have to know what attack is called Thunder."
Roy raised one of his hands upwards.
As soon as Roy raised his hand, dark clouds rose above the ground.
"Rejoice that you had the privilege of seeing me use magic."
Everyone was getting scared seeing this.
"Master Roy you won, please don't use magic."
Malcolm was horrified to see this. Amelia was also asking Beatrice to stop me.
"Master Roy please calm down."
Beatrice was also telling me to stop. But it was all necessary, which I could not stop. I had to make him feel like he was weak now.
Seeing me not stopping, Malcolm started walking up to Harrison and asking him to stop me.
"Master Harrison, stop Master Roy, it can be dangerous."
Malcolm thought that Harrison would stop Roy, but Harrison was not moving from his place.
"Isn't it right. It's all the boy's fault, he should be punished. That's why I won't stop Roy at all."
Harrison vehemently refused to stop me.
"Andrew, get out of your place."
Hugh was also asking Andrew to avoid this attack. Andrew was also getting a little nervous, but he was still ready to attack me with his sword.
"I will not run."
"Andrew, run away."
As Andrey took a step toward me, Roy attacked Andrew.
"Thunder"
As soon as Roy had said this, a massive lightning beam came down from the dark clouds and fell a short distance away from Andrew.
"Aaaaahh"
The blow was so decisive that Andrew fell to the ground and looked like he was just about to faint.
"See what happens when a weakling gets screwed by a mighty one."
Roy was still laughing. And Andrew's body was starting to bleed.
"Ro-Roy Holt is the winner of this duel."
Hugh said this and ran to see Andrew's condition. Malcolm also went to visit his condition.
And seeing this, I started feeling ashamed of myself.
***********
Andrew lay half unconscious on the ground below, and Amelia looked at him a short distance away with tears in her eyes.
'I thought this boy would not be as bad as people say.'
Even after hearing all the things about Roy in Amelia's heart, there was a hope that he might not be so bad. But that hope was also dead after seeing the boy lying on the ground in front of her.
'My only friend who used to play with me since childhood, he came only because of his friendship and you-'
Amelia's eyes were on Roy, who was laughing at Andrew lying down. Amelia was looking at Roy.
'I got to know today what feelings I have for this boy.'
Amelia was looking at Roy, and there was no fear in her eyes. There was only one thing....Pure Hatred.
The only thing on Amelia's mind was
'I hate it
Amelia was just looking at Roy with a gaze of hatred.
*********
Andrew was lying on the ground in a half-conscious state. I was starting to feel a little bad seeing this, but it was all necessary for Andrew to start the journey of becoming a protagonist. And I also made the attack a little away from Andrew's body so that he could not get any fatal injury.
"I am not-"
Andrew was still trying to stand up even though he was in this condition. Seeing this, I started getting more respect for him.
'He really loves Amelia so much.'
Hugh was telling him to give up now.
"Andrew don't be mad, you know very well your power is nothing in front of Roy, just don't create more troubles for God's sake."
Hugh was telling Andrew to back down. Andrew's condition was worsening now, but he was still standing back.
"I haven't lost yet."
Andrew was trying to stand again with the help of the sword, but he was unable to stand. But still, Andrew was not losing his courage.
'I have to break him completely.'
Roy completely broke Andrew in the game, both in heart and mind. I have to hurt him ultimately like Roy broke Andrew, keeping an eye on the future.
"You really deserve to be lying on the ground. You were so weak that I didn't even have to lift my sword and you were coming to fight with me."
Roy was mocking Andrew while he was joking, but Andrew could not even stand up.
"Did you come with that much strength to save this girl? What a joke."
Amelia was also looking at me with hatred, and the whole Reinhardt family was also angry to see all this, but they could do nothing.
Andrew was also clenching his fist lying down; he, too, was angry at his weakness. But even after seeing all this, I did not stop speaking.
"Come on, let me give you a reward for showing such bravery."
After saying this, Andrew looked at Roy in surprise. As Roy said, he started going towards Amelia.
'I am sorry but it is necessary to do all this, in this it is good for both of you.'
I didn't feel right doing it, but I had to break Andrew completely. I was on my way to Amelia.
Everyone was looking at me in surprise; they could not understand what I would do. Amelia had drops of water in her eyes, and she was looking at me with an angry look.
I came to Amelia and grabbed her hand. After catching it, I took out the ring from my pocket and put it in Amelia's hand.
"From today this girl is mine, you must be happy to see this."
I put Amelia's hand up in front of Andrew.
As soon as I showed Andrew the ring on Amelia's hand, I noticed that a drop of water came out of Andrew's eyes.
"Roy Holt, I won't leave you alive!!"
Seeing this, Andrew got furious and started attacking me with all the strength left in him.
This time Andrew's attack intended to kill me, and it seemed that his speed had also increased manifold.
"I will kill you."
His sword was just about to cross my neck. Then I grabbed his neck with my hand and stopped him.
"You are too weak."
After catching him by the neck, I slammed him quickly to the ground by the neck.
"I will save Amelia...."
Andrew was utterly unconscious as soon as he was slammed. The last word he was about to say could not be fulfilled.
Everyone in the Reinhardt family was looking at me, their eyes full of anger at my behavior and sympathy for Andrew.
Seeing Andrew's condition in Amelia's eyes, there was water in her eyes; perhaps her heart must have been hurt to see her love in this condition below.
And after seeing Andrew, she looked at me with a blaze of anger in her eyes. I sat down, still holding Andrew's throat by the hand.
I had only one thing on my mind that I wanted to tell Andrew, but I couldn't.
'You'll be able to save Amelia for sure, but you'll have to wait a little longer.'
*****************
It was evening, and the sun was about to set entirely into the night in just a few moments. Andrew was taken by some servants and started doing his medical treatment as soon as the duel was over.
"Roy, you didn't even complete the ceremony, you should at least complete it."
Harrison and I were standing in front of our carriage. And waited for Amelia to come.
Amelia was visiting her family. Her entire family had tears, but Amelia kept her emotion in check. All of them were bidding farewell to Amelia.
After the duel with Andrew, I was getting ready to head straight to Holt Territory, taking away all of Amelia's belongings and leaving the ceremony half-finished.
"I have worn the ring to her, the rest of the rituals are not necessary and I will not stay here anymore."
I felt terrible seeing Andrew break up both emotionally and physically. Even if I kiss Amelia now, whether Amelia forgives me or not, I will not be able to forgive myself again.
And now I feel it wise to get out of here early; after all, today I have created a lot of trouble here, and it is better to leave from here than to make more problems.
"Amelia take care of yourself."
After a while, Amelia, too, came toward us to walk in the carriage after meeting her family.
"okay then, Roy, you both come in one carriage, I sit in the other carriage."
After saying this, Harrison went to sit in the second carriage. I also want to sit in the second carriage, but it would not be right to do so now.
Amelia began to sit in the carriage without looking at me. I also started sitting behind him in the carriage without saying anything.
"Roy Holt"
As I was sitting in the carriage, I heard Hugh's voice behind me.
"I want to tell you one thing."
I turned my face towards Hugh. As I turned my face towards Hugh, Hugh bowed his head in front of me.
"Please, I apologize to you for what happened today, but please don't hold Amelia responsible for all this."
Hugh bowed his head in front of me, apologizing for today's accident, which I did not feel good about watching it.
"I'm getting late, I don't have time to talk to someone like you."
It's not Amelia's fault; I already know that.
I climbed into the carriage, but Hugh said again.
"Please Amelia is a very nice girl, so take care of her."
He was still bowing his head, telling me not to misbehave with Amelia. I feel that he really loved his sister, watching Hugh's behavior.
"You have neither the power nor the position to say anything in front of me. If you want to tell me something, then go first and come after being equal to me."
Nothing came out of my mouth again except the filth. As soon as I said it, Hugh clenched his fist while bending down. I feel bad to see this.
"Still, please take care of her."
Malcolm and Beatrice also started bowing down seeing Hugh.
"Please take care of Amelia."
"This is our only request to you."
All three bowed their heads in front of me and asked me to take good care of Amelia.
"You are unsightly. Stay away from me I'm getting late to leave."
I climbed into the carriage and started closing the door. All three of them had not raised their heads yet. I closed the carriage door. The carriage started moving as soon as I closed the door.
'You don't need to worry, Hero Andrew will save your girl and give her all the happiness.'
**********
It was night, and gradually the weather was getting colder.
It had been a long time since we left the Reinhardt Territory. The carriage I was sitting in was very well decorated from the outside. And this carriage had only one long seat.
Amelia was looking out the carriage window on the other side.
Since the beginning of the journey, neither did Amelia try to talk nor did I dare to say anything, so I, too, was looking outside the window without looking at Amelia.
When Amelia was taking farewell to her family members, she did not shed a single tear, but when some time passed, Amelia also looked outside, and some tears flowed from her eyes.
I was trying to ignore seeing this because I could not say anything to her that would make her feel good, but it would definitely make her feel bad if something came out of my mouth.
'I hate the creator of this game.'
The game's creator didn't make the fate of Amelia's character right. Marriage, which is probably essential for girls, was forced; there was a fight on the day the wedding took place.
And the most significant thing is to be married to a boy like Roy. If you see all this, then the creator made Amelia's character and her fate worse, which I am now thinking about.
'Your luck will be changed when Andrew comes to save you. So you don't need to be too disappointed.
I just wanted to say this to Amelia, but I knew I wouldn't be able to say it, so I just kept looking outside.
Snow had started falling outside, due to which the weather was getting colder. I had never seen snow. This was my first experience watching the snowfall, and I liked watching it.
As I was looking at the snow, my eyes turned to Amelia. Amelia was sitting there numbing herself; perhaps she was feeling cold.
I was wearing a coat, so I was not feeling so cold, but Amelia's dress was thin, due to which she was probably feeling cold.
I took off my coat and put it on Amelia. As soon as the coat was placed on her, she looked at me.
"You'll need it. I do not want this."
You can use it.
As soon as I gave him the coat, Amelia took the coat in anger and threw it toward me. And she started saying with some hand gestures which I did not understand.
(I don't need any of your help)
I really hate him. What does he think? Everyone is below him, and he can do anything. Whatever he did to Andrew, after that, he believes that I will forget all that by doing this. He is really the worst.
Amelia angrily threw the coat toward me and started looking back outside.
'She really hates me.'
Amelia felt cold, but she didn't want to seek my help. Maybe she hated me more because of what I did to Andrew.
The cold was getting a bit more now; if I could not give a coat with this, then I would have to use another method.
Roy raised one of his hands, and a little fire started coming out of his hand, due to which the heat also started coming.
Seeing Roy doing this, Amelia looked at him in surprise. But as soon as Roy started looking into her, she stole her eyes and started looking at the other side again.
'He is just doing this on purpose so that I can let my guards down but I know what kind of person he is. I don't trust him.'
Looking outside, Amelia's eyes were starting to get heavy; looking at her, it seemed that she was tired. Amelia's eyes slowly began to close. And Amelia was falling asleep from exhaustion.
'Looks like she hasn't been able to rest since yesterday.'
Whatever happened today and maybe even tomorrow, Amelia may not have been able to sleep, so she must have been tired. Fatigue was bound to happen; after all, a fifteen-year-old girl who should have been in the tenth class had so much responsibility on her.
Amelia looked so beautiful as she slept. After seeing Amelia, I started looking outside the carriage on the other side.
'Truly, Andrew is very lucky.'
**************
Some time had passed while traveling, and the darkness of the night was at its peak. Amelia's wake was also beginning to open.
'Did I fall asleep?'
Amelia seemed to wake up, rubbing her eyes with her hands.
'It's warm here.'
Amelia was feeling wheezing without feeling cold in the carriage, and as soon as Amelia regained consciousness, she found that a black coat had been placed on her.
'Huh'
When Amelia looked to her right, Roy had put out the fire using magic with his hand, and his own coat was over Amelia's.
'Didn't he rest all time?'
Looking at Roy, it was difficult to know whether he must have taken rest as Roy was still using magic when Amelia was asleep.
"Get ready, we're about to arrive."
Amelia came to her senses as soon as Roy spoke; she took off Roy's coat quickly. And then, without shaking her eyes, she started looking on the other side.
'He isn't a nice guy, it's just a ploy to let me down my guard.'
Amelia explained this to herself, but why would Roy need to do this? For Amelia, this thing was starting to come to her mind.
"did you need something."
When Amelia was starting to see Roy secretly, Roy had seen Amelia, due to which she was beginning to feel more ashamed. He again turned his face to the other side in shame.
'He is not a good person-'
Amelia was looking out at the snow, but Roy had not stopped his magic even for a moment in the whole journey. Roy did not seem tired, nor did he complain.
Amelia was surprised at this, and it was beyond her comprehension.
'-He is not, isn't He?'
And the journey was coming to an end while going on like this.
***************
It was still night. We had arrived in the territory, and we were standing outside the mansion.
"Roy, you should also take some rest. The rest in the carriage may not have been done well."
We had got down from the carriage, and all the mansion's servants stood to welcome us with their heads bowed.
Harrison was telling me to rest.
"Roy, be careful, start with friendship first and then move on."
Harrison whispered in my ear at the sight of Amelia standing beside me.
"What do you want to say."
I had no idea what Harrison meant. Harrison started laughing a little while asking me.
"Ben, go show them their room."
Harrison called Ben and asked Amelia and me to show us our room. But I don't know why Harrison had a smile on his face.
"Young master, ma'am, come with me, let me show you the room of both of you."
Ben was bowing his head, asking Amelia and me to follow him.
'A little rest would be fine.'
I was tired too, and Amelia might need a rest too. Only after resting, we will see how to solve Amelia's matter.
Amelia was looking at me angrily. Which was inevitable; after all, she used to hate me, so the best solution would be to rest now.
"Hurry on, I don't have time to waste like you."
Ben was asking us to walk by, pointing at me.
"Please come with me."
As soon as Ben asked, both Amelia and I started following Ben.
*************
Ben brought us out of the room, which may now be Amelia's room.
"Ma'am, this is your room, please go inside."
Ben showed Amelia the room, and Amelia went inside the room. She looked at me angrily as if she was saying, 'Disgusted.'
I know she hates Roy, which is also true, but I found it hard to bear being at the receiving end.
I looked at Ben as Amelia left.
"Old hag, listen to me, do my work."
As soon as I said this, Ben started looking at me.
"Yes, young master."
"Tomorrow, arrange all the papers of the territory, and yes, without telling the father."
Hearing my work, Ben looked at me in amazement.
"But young master, what will you do with the territory paper's?"
I'll have to see how Harrison handles the territory. At the end of the game, I'll run away, so being Harrison's son, I can just try to reduce his punishment. This will be my atonement.
"Just do as you are told."
I couldn't tell you the reason.
"But Young Master, hiding from Master Harrison—"
"I'm not finished yet."
Ben started asking me to speak at my behest, not completing his words.
"Yes, Young Master"
"Second, arrange a servant who knows sign language, and she should be a girl who is not too old in age."
Understanding Amelia's words will be very hard without her, and this will also give Amelia someone to talk to so that her time will also be able to pass comfortably.
"Yes, Young Master"
"And third, I will tell you tomorrow only. You do these two things and I want both of these works tomorrow, otherwise you know what will happen to you."
Ben bowed his head a little nervously and started agreeing at my behest.
"Young master, your work will be done."
"Now I'm going to my room, I don't have time to waste time with you."
I am really very tired now. I will probably fall asleep as soon as I lie down in the room.
I left to go to my room.
"Young master, where are you going, here is your room."
Ben told me from behind when I was going to my room
"Didn't you show this room to that girl yet?"
My room is another, and you just showed this room to Amelia.
"Young master, that's why I am saying this room is yours. If both of you are married, then the room will also be the same. Master Harrison has said."
"what?"
I now understood the meaning of Harrison's words and why Amelia was also looking at me angrily. But still one room?
"Young Master, is there anything wrong?"
Ben started asking me if there was any problem.
If I now say I have to sleep in another room, maybe Harrison will change his attitude towards Amelia.
When Roy seemed to misbehave with Amelia in the game, Harrison also stopped behaving well with Amelia, which I do not want at all.
"Young Master?"
Seeing me lost, Ben started calling me again. Hearing Ben's voice, I came out of my thoughts.
Nothing can be done now.
"Get away now let me go to my room."
"Yes. Excuse me."
Ben started going back, and I started going into the room.
'What's going to happen now?'
************
There was a bed in the room, and Amelia was standing in front of the bed.
'I knew he was doing all this to let my guard down. I really hate him.'
Amelia looked down.
'Do I have to sleep under one roof with such a boy now?'
Amelia was a little hesitant to sleep in a bed with Roy.
'No, I will not sleep with such a boy.'
Amelia took the water jug kept with the bed and poured all the water where Roy's sleeping place was.
'I won't let everything happen according to him. I will not bow down before him.'
Taking the blanket, Amelia lay down on her side of the bed and started sleeping.
*****************
Roy had entered the room. And in front of him, Amelia was sleeping on the bed.
'If someone really hates you, it is very difficult to bear this feeling.'
Amelia had already slept before Roy, perhaps in displeasure, without waiting for Roy.
'It is not right to sleep in a bed, I will feel that I am betraying someone's feelings.'
Amelia likes Andrew and Andrew likes Amelia. In the end, Andrew will save Amelia, and both will be happy. So that's why I shouldn't be playing with someone else's trust.
Not going towards the bed, Roy started going to the side of the room where the sofa was kept.
'Now, you are my companion of the night. Until Andrew comes to save Amelia'
Roy came near the sofa and lay down on the couch. And closed his eyes and started sleeping.
************
Amelia was looking at Roy on the other side of the bed, hiding one of her eyes. He felt that Roy would come and get angry at her, but Roy did not even come near the bed.
'Where did he go.'
Amelia saw Roy coming into the room, but Roy did not even come near the bed. So Amelia was looking to see where Roy had gone.
When Amelia got up from the bed and looked up, Roy was sleeping on the sofa.
'huh'
Amelia could not understand why he was sleeping on the sofa and did not even come near the bed.
'Wasn't it aimed at sleeping in the bed with me?'
Amelia thought that Roy was behaving in such a way so that Amelia could let her guards down and Roy could sleep with her but seeing Roy lying on the couch, this image was telling something else.
Seeing Roy lying on the couch, Amelia started feeling guilty.
'He is a bad person then why-'
Amelia started hiding her face by taking a sheet.
'Then why is he treating me like this again.'
Amelia held her head tightly to her head.
'He is really worst; he even won't let me hate him.'
Amelia's guilt feeling was growing, which was not allowing her to sleep.
'I hate him.'
Amelia indeed said this in her mind, but her expressions expressed something else. So just like that, time passed, and Amelia could not sleep.
