  It made no sense.
His posture faltered.
However, he struck her sword with only a few slashes, as if it was supposed to be natural, and he hacked her abdomen with his sword, avoiding the direction Seria’s sword was directed to.

 

  She didn’t know.
And it’s human instinct to fear the unknown.
In addition to the intense pain she experienced for a long time, Seria’s eyes turned towards Ian with a slight sense of fear.

 

  Without a word, he walked back to the area opposite of Seria.
And standing there, he looked down at Seria again.

 

  Eyes inquiring what I wanted to do.
Seria clenched her teeth, and staggered up.

 

  She was panting.
Still, Seria again raised her sword.

 

  “…… Again, please.”

 

  However, no matter how many times she fought, the results didn’t change.

 

  Seria was sure she was about to win again and again, but it was always her who went rolling on the floor the next moment.
It would have been better if it only ended with her rolling on the floor.

 

  She was hit in the temple with the side of the sword, kicked in the abdomen, and her arms and legs were stabbed dozens of times, so she certainly didn’t feel good.

 

  After several duels, blood gushed out of Seria’s mouth.
Her gums bursted from the accumulated impacts.

 

  And after a few more bouts, Seria vomited pale yellow gastric fluid.

 

  When the last duel was over, Seria couldn’t even get up.
Her whole body was full of wounds.

 

  She was fractured in multiple places.
The excruciating pain dulled the sensations in her limbs.
Her vision turned blurry, and she couldn’t even breathe properly.
She didn’t even know she had a lung injury.

 

  It was after several duels had already been repeated that the noise subsided.

 

  They were overwhelmed by the ruthless violence, the countless brutalities inflicted on that  fragile girl’s body, not even able to properly rebel against her aggressor.

 

  Broken, torn, and bleeding.
Nonetheless, Ian mechanically swung his wooden sword.

 

  Each time, a scream echoed, flesh and blood were splattered.
Seria’s body, who had collapsed after allowing that final blow, was convulsing.

 

  Even Professor Derek, who was in charge of restraining such situations, had a pale face and couldn’t easily open his mouth.
A case where a human wields such vicious violence against someone of his own species was a rare sight that even a legendary monster hunter and adventurer like himself had rarely seen.

 

  Only Ian was calm.
He strolled towards Seria, who was now drenched in blood and couldn’t even speak properly.
That alone made Seria’s instinct scream.

 

  Run away, I have to run away. 

 

  Seria’s body, subjected to such brutality, couldn’t even pose the slightest amount of resistance, was trembling regardless of her will.

 

  Seeing Seria like that, Ian spoke softly.

 

  “Get up, Seria Yurdina.”

 

  Hearing those words, Seria’s body stiffened.

 

  Is it still not enough? I did my best.
Still, this is an opponent I can’t win against.

  Her body was screaming constantly.
Please stop.
That man is an unparalleled monster.
If I keep going like this, I’ll die.

 

  Seria’s trembling eyes turned to Ian.
He was as impassive as he was at the beginning.

 

   “It’s a pain that you will have to go through countless times in the future.
Are you going to break down like this every time then?”

 

  She didn’t even dare to meet the man’s gaze and avoided her eyes.
Her eyes trembled sadly along with her body.
Even tears rolled down her eyes.

 

  She was scared to get up.
There was a limit to determination.
If you get up anyway, you’ll just have to fall again.
No matter how arrogant and proud of a swordsman she was, after all she was just a young girl who had recently turned 20.

 

  In the end, it was Professor Derek who spoke.
He was watching the duel in a daze, and immediately rushed to scream.

 

  “Stop! The duel is over! Seria is already seriously injured.
The duel is now over!”

 

  Professor Derek started trudging towards Ian and Seria.
His intervention was late, but it didn’t pose that much of a problem, thanks to the presence of high-ranking priests in the academy who could heal any serious injury in a week.

 

  If left to the Saintess, who was still in her third year, Seria’s wounds were at a level that could be healed within a few days.
However, psychological scars are a separate issue altogether.

 

  As Professor Derek approached, Ian, who had been staring at him for a moment, turned his gaze back to Seria.

 

  He asked again.

 

  “So, what are you going to do?”

 

  Hearing those words, Seria almost cried.
What am I going to do? Of course.

 

  Of course, I want to give up.

 

  Frightened, my trembling body didn’t listen.
The muscles groaned.
A body that barely moves with magical power.
Even the bones weren’t left unharmed.

 

  Many times, I couldn’t control my body and fell over.

 

  Even when my body was in good shape, I wasn’t able to win.
There was no way I could win now.
Even though she knew it all, Seria got up using the wooden sword as a staff.

 

  The arm holding the wooden sword trembled.
Even now, whenever she met the man’s gaze, her blood would freeze.
Still, she couldn’t give up.

 

  Because the sword was her life.
If she let it go like this and give up.

 

 

 

 

  There would be one more shadow that she wouldn’t be able to remove from her life.
she couldn’t stand it.

 

  Seria took a deep breath and raised up her sword, her body tilting and almost faltering, but she still didn’t let go of her sword.

 

  At that display of sheer will, Professor Derek, who was walking to mediate the duel, stopped moving.
Anyone would have

 

  If anyone had seen Seria’s blue eyes that were burning cold right now, anyone would.

 

  “Again, uh… Again, please.”

 

  Even with Seria’s determination, only the man was neither surprised nor full of admiration.
He only nodded his head a couple of times, as if he already knew.

 

  “…… Indeed.
If it’s Seria Yurdina, that’s how it should be.”

 

  And his sword, again without mercy, struck Seria’s body.

 

  Her body flew through the sky and rolled to the floor.
It had already happened several times during the duel.
However, the difference in this blow was that the accumulation of hits reached the breaking point.

 

  Her blurred consciousness seemed to be about to extinguish itself like a flickering candle.
Seria breathed in through her narrowed field of vision and fumbled with her hand, trying to grab the hilt of the sword somehow.

 

  But the sword was too far away, and sleep was too close to her.

 

  However, before she fainted, she heard the man’s voice.

 

  “Since you only dealt with magical beasts, your movements are too straightforward.”

 

  What does it mean?

 

  Her consciousness was engulfed in darkness.

 

  This was the end of the ‘Breaking Yurdina’s Sword Incident’ that shook the academy for the past week.

  After hearing everything Celine had to say, I had no choice but to remain silent.

 

  The gist of the story was that I had avoided all the Seria’s sword slashes and even  counterattacked to the extent she was turned into a living corpse.
She said something truly astounding. 

 

  She even threw up and told her to get up again after she collapsed?

 

  “…… Are you kidding me?”

 

  “I wish I was joking too.
At that time, Ian oppa was like a ruffian.”

 

  I jumped on the spot at Celine’s somber reply.
It was such a violent reaction that I forgot that everyone was watching me.

 

  “No, it’s not like a ruffian, it’s just utter trash itself! Who would trash a kid who collapsed and can’t move huh!?”

 

  “Yeah, so guys like Thean are trying to get involved with you.”

 

  Celine looked at me with pity with her arms crossed.
It was a look of compassion, as if watching a cat dying on the street with its gut spilled.

 

  She quietly shook her head.

 

  “Are you fine now? Anyway, it’s a crime that Ian oppa committed, so pay for it cleanly.
Now that I think about it, how many of your lives will be needed to pay off that crime?”

 

  “No, but I wasn’t in me at that time?!”

 

  I defended myself like that with a frustrated heart, but Celine and I knew that the excuse would never work.
Of course, it wouldn’t work even more for Seria.

 

  The situation was more serious than expected.
At this rate, even if I were to be killed by Seria, I would have nothing to say.

 

  I moaned, wondering if there was anything useful in what I had just heard.

 

  Then, all of a sudden, the last thing that crossed my mind was the words I uttered.

 

  “…… Hey, what did I say?”

 

  “What?”

 

  Celine, who had put her hands together and prayed for my well-being, tilted her head at my sudden question.
However, in an emergency, I put my hands on Celine’s shoulder and pulled her towards me, then raised her chin with my hand.

 

  It was to show my strong will.
Then, startled, Celine’s face turned red as she avoided my gaze while fidgeting.

 

  “Wh-Why are you doing this all of a sudden…….”

 

   “In the end.
What did I say to Seria who collapsed?”

 

  “That?”

 

  Celine asked back, whether it was because she was troubled by my question or because of my coercion, and immediately agonized over it.
After pondering for a moment, she found the answer I was looking for among those unbelievable memories.

 

  “Hey, what was it? You said, ‘Since you only dealt with magical beasts, your movements are too straightforward’…….”

 

  “Yes, that’s it!”

 

  With admiration, I finally let go of the hand that was holding Celine’s shoulder.
Celine blushed and hesitatingly stared at me with slightly dissatisfied eyes as I pushed her away.

 

  She asked with a smirk, as if it was ridiculous.

 

  “You know what that means?”

 

  “……No, How could I?”

 

  As if she knew my answer beforehand, Celine shook her head.
But contrary to what she thought, I was telling the truth.

 

  “But I have to find out, somehow……,”

 

  Otherwise, I’m destined to die.

 

  It was almost certain that she would apply for the duel once more during today’s lecture.
It was an opportunity to overcome her trauma and piece together her shattered pride due to the devastating defeat she suffered back then.

 

  So I didn’t have time now.
I had to prepare for the duel with her.

 

  In order to take responsibility for something that he didn’t remember, he desperately racked his brains.

 

  Until morning, I thought it was a normal day, but how the hell did this happen?

 

  I sighed inwardly, but I couldn’t help it.

 

  Seria’s sapphire-like eyes were still giving me a piercing glare.
