A man with blond hair and bluish eyes like the sky seemed to be walking towards Reinhard academy, he used light armor on his body and carried the great sword, a huge sword on his shoulders. He had a charm that could attract everyone's attention with his gallant body, the person was none other than a paladin.

Better known as Vincent. He plans to come to Reinhard's academy to oversee Arthur's actions because he still doesn't believe one hundred percent with the teenager. Moreover, he was now together with the Master that he had to protect.

Without knowing what had just happened at the academy. He put his foot up.

“Hah, I can't just log in?”

When he arrived at the academy, Vincent was blocked by two guards there. He frowned in confusion.

“Iya. I apologize Dear paladin sir, but inside the academy there has just been an uproar.”

“What is it?”

The two guards stared at each other as if thinking if this was worth telling and in the end they nodded their heads at each other. Deal sign.

“One of the noble families. Liliana Silveria was killed on this morning.”

Hearing the shocking news from the guard Vincent opened his eyes wide, he did not expect a noble family like Silveria to be killed just like that.

“Has the perpetrator been found?”

The two guards shook their heads. “Not yet, but there is one student suspected of being the perpetrator.”

“Who is that person?” asked Vincent with a serious view as if ready to eliminate the suspected figure.

There was a pause of about a few seconds before the guard answered.

“Arthur Midnight.”

Hearing the answer made Vincent smile, with this if he carried out the execution then he would not be guilty of having a reason.

“But you don't have to worry. Because Rei Vezalius already had a duel with him.”

“Duel?”

Hearing that, Vincent tilted his head as if in confusion.

“Ya a duel? With this the Midnight will definitely not win, even the possibility of her dying,” replied the guard in a cold tone. Arthur was an insect worthy of death.

“Cih! The boy took my role.” muttered Vincent as he clicked his tongue.

“What did you say something?”

“No! Let me in. I won't let that kid take my prey.”

Vincent looks so keen to kill Arthur he won't let anyone take him because that's why he forced his way through.

“A-ah. don't Mr. Paladin.”

But two low-class guards like them certainly could not block him, like it was nothing he entered so casually.

...***...

On the wide schoolyard were seen many academy students gathered. They were looking forward to this duel. Basically the dueling system was a life or death fight it was almost very rare for something like this to happen.

And this time the duel is done anyone will be happy, especially the person who duel is Rei Vezalius the most powerful student in this academy, while the opponent is Arthur the least liked person in this kingdom.

In addition to wanting to see the fight and prowess of Rei the disciples also wished for Arthur's death.

“Kya~ Mr. Rei.”

“How beautiful you are. How dazzling!”

The girls there seemed to be in a frenzy over Rei's presence, seeing the top of the academy was a very rare thing. Anyone must be very happy.

Yeah, anybody but Fiona. In the crowd he was seen clenching his hands and biting his lips.

Rei smiled and returned the greetings from all the girls by giving a wave of hands. Just a wave of hands alone had managed to make some female disciples fascinated and faint.

“Ah, I'm not strong~”

“She's too cool.”

Those were the last words of the girls before they fainted about the charm of Rei.

“You are very famous yes.”

Arthur said, unable to hide his cold gaze and voice that was extremely dislikeful of the situation.

Answering Arthur's question, Rei only smiled warmly, but did not look friendly to Arthur. To him it was like a smile of contempt.

“...I don't care. More importantly let's quickly start.”

The warm smile from Rei slowly faded away he was now looking at Arthur very seriously and exerting immense pressure.

“You are in a hurry. Well you have no place here so you might want to die as soon as possible.”

Just like Rei said. This is not the place for Arthur, this is all evidenced by the sound of ridicule and hatred thrown at Arthur.

“Death to lowly Midnight!”

“I hope he dies this time.”

“Not only did the prince fail he also suffered from the disease, absolutely disgusting.”

“Mr Rei, please kill this disgusting creature.”

“Kill, kill, kill.”

Like a cheer, everyone watching expected Arthur's death, except for Fiona who just stared with sadness. He shed tears and bowed his head, he was very sad to see the figure that once saved him was now a subject of ridicule.

Realizing that Fiona was still by his side despite being in this situation made Arthur's lips lift.

I'm grateful that you're still at my side.

“Why are you smiling? You freak.”

Realizing that Arthur was suddenly smiling astonished Rei. But in the end he did not care and smiled.

“Alright let's start the duel.. I Rei Vezalius hereby declare that I am ready for the fight.”.

“I'm Arthur Midnight hereby stating that I'm ready for the fight.”

Swoosh

Rei started his attack. As if the air around him froze, Arthur felt a stifling murderous appetite approaching him. The distance between them was about ten meters, yet with his speed Rei could approach in just one breath.

This proved the difference in strength between them. Even so, Arthur can miraculously avoid the swing of the mad-speed sword with a distance as thin as paper.

“He~ Good.”

Realizing he could dodge his attack, Rei smiled. Although it was just luck, but it was a very great thing.

{Bokah! This kid's a danger.}

‘Ya I also know.’

Cring

Once again Rei lunged and was in front of Arthur as if not allowing an opportunity to think he was slashing the sword vertically. At that time, although a little late and the position is not good, Arthur can withstand the slash even though he was thrown a few steps.

Seeing this fight, the disciples who looked down on Arthur began to sweat and fell silent, indeed he was no match for Rei, either, but it was still incredible that he could avoid and withstand the attacks from Rei who was stripped of the academy's top.

Although they hate to admit this, they assume that Arthur is not too weak as rumored.

Back to Arthur. He looks to have a messy breathing and his body looks very stained.

He supported his body with a sword.

She is very strong.’

Not letting Arthur rest for a second. Rei attacked with a fierce horizontal slash, passed on with a quick jab as Arthur tried to keep his distance. Arthur's cheeks were scratched and blood dripped out profusely.

"This one can also be avoided, yes?”

Mumbled like that. Rei charged once more with his insane speed, he attacked with a vertical slash down. It was a simple movement, but with its speed that seemed to have exceeded human limits, even that simple movement became deadly.

Retaliating for his attack, Arthur also slashed the sword horizontally. He knew that holding such an attack head-on was a foolish act, but continuing to dodge would not be able to lead to victory. With his crazy moves, Arthur won't be able to keep dodging until time runs out.

Looks like it's a good time to use that..

A moment after their swords met, Arthur felt an intense pressure that seemed as if it was about to crush his wrist. Trying to adjust his movements, Arthur follows the flow of power from the mad man. Tilting his sword by equalizing Rei's rhythm of attack, Arthur flowed his slash following the blade of the sword Arthur held to the side.

And that way, the sword that was supposed to be aimed at Arthur now changed direction and ended up hitting the floor directly. Along with the shattered floor, a loud bang like an explosion rang out. Rei's sword became stuck on the floor and he had to pull it to be able to fight back.

Now it's..

Taking the sword that was stuck would take this time was an opportunity, Arthur would not waste his time. With the horses steady, Arthur held his sword and wanted to slash Rei.

The position is perfect, the timing is also perfect.

But…

“Looks like I have to be serious now.”

Duars

Right after Rei finished muttering within a distance of about a few centimeters appeared a yellow lightning bolt that struck extremely powerfully, as if protecting himself from Arthur wanting to attack.

The lightning was so powerful that everyone was shocked and opened their eyes.

Although Arthur. He crashed and fell because he received the lightning strike.

“Argh!”

Staring coldly at Arthur who was lying on the floor, Rei walked over with his body enveloped by lightning, he also let out a smile.

“It seems that I am indeed not talented in the world of swords.”

Saying this he threw out his sword, threw it at any place and stuck it neatly on the floor.

“I've guessed lightning magic does suit me better,” he said with a horrible smile.

Rei Vezalius, now Arthur realizes the real monster. He was not serious from the beginning though because he was basically not a sword user like himself, but rather he was a lightning magic user.

Realizing Arthur's deep despair bit his lips. He no longer knows what to do.
