〈 Episode 299 〉 Crossing paths (3)
* * *
As the northern warriors watched, Rania walked straight toward Kyle. The warriors who were training stopped moving and looked back at Rania. The rumor about that young lady is that she was famous among warriors.
‘A wizard who defeated warriors with his bare hands.’
As the warriors’ attention focused on one area, Kyle, who was swinging his sword, eventually looked back.
“Are you back again?”
“uh.”
“You came again without getting tired. “I would have said I had nothing to talk about with you.”
It’s a pitchless voice.
It’s not like he’s pretending to be indifferent, it’s a voice that only comes out when he’s truly uninterested. Rania continued walking and stopped in front of Kyle.
We used to be the same height, but not anymore.
Thus, the situation where Kyle slightly looks down on her is very unpleasant for Rania. Frowning her eyebrows at her displeasure, Rania raised her hand.
“Who said we should talk?”
She took off her gloves and threw them in front of Kyle.
With a thud, the gloves fell to the floor.
“Let’s give it a try, bastard.”
White and slender fingers revealed after taking off gloves.
Among them, Rania laughed mischievously, lifting her index finger.
“If you don’t listen to me, I have to beat you up and make you listen. is not it?”
Kyle’s eyebrows moved.
I did not fall for cheap provocation. That’s because I’ve heard something like that before.
“Are you going to listen to me? “Isn’t there, kid?”
“Then what should I do? “I have to beat him up and make him listen.”
Did Raniel hear about that incident too?
It seems like you’ve told me everything. Kyle frowned at her as she thought about it. It’s already starting to become a hassle to deal with her.
“Is this a challenge for a duel?”
“then?”
“I accept it.”
Kyle snapped and put down his sword.
“I will not use the sword.”
“Damn, you’re on form. “I’m not going to use any spells either?”
Rania sneered.
Kyle stated the conditions of the duel with a deadpan expression.
“When the duel is over, don’t go near me anymore. “It’s a hassle to deal with them one by one.”
“Isn’t that something that should be considered a victory condition?”
“Then let’s make it a victory condition.”
He doesn’t seem to have any doubts about his victory. Rania, who was not happy about that, tsk, and stuck out her tongue.
“If I win…”
“Do it yourself. There is no way I will lose.”
Wow, look at this guy.
Rania gritted her teeth and gritted her teeth. She understandably thinks she will win, but Rania sees that Kyle is mistaken.
‘Once it’s been hit, the baby’s mouth is full.’
Rania snapped her fingers.
“Go for it, bastard.”
While the northern warriors, who were excited for a duel, cheered, Rania took a step forward.
“If you don’t come, I’ll go.”
2.
Raniel cannot defeat Kyle, who holds a sword.
To be more precise, he cannot defeat Kyle, who charges at him from the plains while holding the holy sword (??) and burning starlight.
This is natural.
No matter how good Raniel is in hand-to-hand combat, he cannot do the same to a swordsman whose physical capabilities are superior to his own. Unless he runs away or has an obstacle to block his sword even once, Raniel doesn’t win against Kyle.
So, if you fight on flat ground, Raniel will be defeated in 10 out of 10 cases. This is the conclusion Raniel came to after hanging out with Kyle.
What if it’s not flat?
For example, what if it’s in the middle of a forest where there are a lot of slopes and things that would block Kyle’s view?
Still, the win rate is not that high.
If you fight ten times, you might be lucky enough to win two or three times. It has to be that way. No matter how much Raniel burns mana, he will never be able to obtain physical abilities superior to Kyle.
However, all of this is a story about when Kyle held the sword(?).
If you take a sword (?) away from a swordsman, all you have left are your two hands. If so, will you throw a punch? That’s what the old sword masters from Galatric did. To prepare for the unlikely situation where the sword breaks.
The martial arts skills were so effective that masters of the sword easily defeated several masters with their bare hands.
But Kyle didn’t learn that.
This is because there is no need to learn it. What Kyle holds is a holy sword, a star weapon that can never be broken or lost. Since there was no need to think about a situation without a sword, Kyle didn’t put any effort into his martial arts skills.
Even if a situation arises where he needs to throw a punch, he just uses his physical ability to swing his fist. That alone is threatening enough, and it would be possible to win against a decent warrior(？？)…
Wow!
If the opponent is someone with similar physical abilities to you, the story tends to be a little different.
“Hey. “It’s going to hurt, man.”
Rania snorted sarcastically.
Kyle rubbed his chin and frowned. I thought she had seen her fist all the way and turned her head, but at one point she realized that her fist was hitting me in the chin.
My head hurts a little, but it doesn’t hurt that much.

Kyle frowns and steps forward. It may not seem very honorable to see her punching a girl younger than her while her warriors watch, but whatever.
Huh.
Kyle stretched out his fist.
It wasn’t a fist swung with all its might, but it had enough force to make the girl roll on the floor if she got hit. A fist stretched out, cutting through the air.
Rania just smiled as she looked at the approaching fist. Only when her fist got close to her nose did she make her move.
widely.
He tilts his head to the side and smacks Kyle’s elbow with his palm. So Kyle’s fist splits the air and his arms become empty.
Wow!
He stretched out his legs and kicked his abdomen.
Despite being pushed and kicked, Kyle does not take a single step back. Rather good. Rania took one step forward and pumped her clenched fist.
Unlike before, I used quite a bit of force.
This time, Kyle took a step back with a harsh sound. Rania is still standing in her place and letting out her sneer.
“What are you doing?”
In order to fire her main spells from close range, Rania learned how to close the distance and use fist swings.
Who taught her that?
This is Kuntel, the swordsman.
Kuntel passed on all of the martial arts skills developed by the sword masters in Galatric to Raniel, and Raniel managed to master them.
In her eyes, Kyle without a sword doesn’t look that threatening.
Huh.
Kyle’s fist splits the air.
Whenever Rania found an opportunity, she stretched out her arms, bent and straightened her legs, and pounded Kyle’s body hard. She doesn’t do much damage, but to the warriors watching her duel, it looks like Rania is playing with Kyle.
It is actually doing so.
Rania clenched her fists tightly, rather than pounding with moderate force. Her body moves quickly for a moment. And then he punched Kyle in the chin.
“···!”
Kyle stumbles for a moment.
The blow landed squarely in the jaw. As her head shook, Kyle cracked her eyes open. Even though she doesn’t want to notice at this point, she can’t help but notice.
same.
The direction of the fight is the same as when I fought with Raniel before. We fought like this back then too. Ran El was playing with himself and then stuck his fist in his jaw.
…Did you even hear that?
Did you learn from Raniel that if you do it this way, you can deceive yourself? This is truly a habit. Now Kyle feels very uncomfortable.
“Moderately.”
Kyle gritted his teeth.
“Do it in moderation.”
Kyle grabbed Rania’s wrist as she stretched out her fist. When I grab it and grab it, a loud popping sound is heard. While Rania was frowning, Kyle pulled Rania still.
As expected, the body is as light as it looks.
In an instant, Kyle grabbed Rania’s collar, who was right in front of him. Kyle grabbed him by the collar and dragged him in front of me and spoke like he was gritting his teeth.
“How on earth did you hear it? Looks like you said everything. What do you have to gain by deceiving me like this? “Do you want to play a prank on me?”
“I’ll tell you, damn it.”
Rania fired while holding onto Kyle’s wrist, who was holding her by the collar.
“You’re still clueless, you f*cking bastard.”
She threw her head back. Her gray hair fluttered in Kyle’s sight, and Kyle let out a moan this time at the momentary pain.
“Tsk….”
It’s a headbutt.
It was also a headbutt aimed at the nose. Kyle tilted her head back for a moment at the sharp pain she felt in her nose, and her shock didn’t end there.
“hey.”
Rania repeatedly tilted her head back and swung it.
“this.”
Snap, pop.
“It’s like a dog.”
In the midst of the continuous headbutting, Rania’s forehead is not unharmed. Kyle is quite strong. Even with the skin on her forehead peeling and bleeding, Rania continued to shake her head.
“It’s not like a word, so it’s like you are right? Hey, let me ask you one thing.”
I continued to do this until Kyle let go of my collar.
“What on earth are you complaining about?”
Suddenly, Kyle’s nose started bleeding.
“I think I was wrong. “It may have been wrong for you, but even considering the cancer…”
Maybe he made a mistake while headbutting, but Raniel’s nose was also bleeding. Even as things got ugly, Rania tripped over Kyle’s leg and fell.
“I don’t think I did anything more wrong than you did?”
“What the hell, from earlier…”
“I’m sorry, but shouldn’t you be more sorry to me?”
“what···.”
“Aren’t you sorry to me?”
Laying Kyle down, Rania grabbed him by his collar and lifted him up. Kyle then looks straight at the girl in front of her.
“You wronged me too. You should be sorry too. “You damn thing, is it something a person would do to stand next to a friend from home and eat rice cakes in a tent?”
“···you.”
“Work is a waste of time, damn it. Ah, my blood pressure goes up. I have more than one thing in store for you. Ah, there are so many that it gets confusing. Wow, f*ck really…”
“now.”
“I guess I was wrong. I’m thinking of apologizing too. But, bastard. There is an order. “The order is.”
“What are you saying…”
“What do you mean?”
Red, bloodshot eyes.
Blood flowing from a burst nosebleed.
And, the messy gray hair.
“If you still can’t figure it out, you’re really screwed. know?”
Please don’t let my mouth speak.
Please, you little bastard.
Rania muttered that, but Kyle made Rania do so by asking again.
“What on earth are you?”
“Ooh, this bastard is really.”
Rania grabbed Kyle by the collar and lifted him up, then headbutted him again.
3.
“Wow, look at that temperamental hair.”
Sarah crossed her arms and clicked her tongue.
At the point when Rania started to headbutt and open her mouth, Sarah quickly stamped her foot and hit the barrier. At least make sure that conversation doesn’t leak out.
Anyway, you should know about that temperament.
Sarah also knew well that she was a hot-tempered wizard who spoke out loud when her emotions got strong. Because I knew, I somewhat expected that things would turn out this way.
‘···Because it’s only like that to Kyle.’
In general, Raniel is a cool-headed person.
He is like a model wizard who can find the answer at any moment and coolly analyze the situation…
Not in front of Kyle.
When it came to matters involving Kyle, Raniel reacted excessively emotionally. He expected a lot from Kyle, and he expected Kyle to do the same. Sarah knows how those expectations were distorted.
“please.”
“Please, hey. please.”
There was a day when Raniel couldn’t stand it anymore and punched Kyle. That day was no different from now.
“Please, bastard.”
After receiving treatment from Sarah after the situation, Sarah remembers the expression Raniel made as if he was in pain. The expression Rania makes now is the same as back then.
I can’t hear what they’re saying.
Looking at Rania’s screaming face while holding her collar, Sarah could only tsk and click her tongue. Because I could see Kyle’s expression changing.
Kyle’s pupils shook slightly.
This is the response Sarah was unable to elicit from Kyle, who had turned into an emotionless puppet after encountering the Demon King. That’s why Sarah was jealous of the existence called Raniel who could do that. I was jealous. Also, I sympathized.
“Ugh.”
Sarah sighed and shook her head.
Then he approached Kyle and Rania. To separate the two. As Sarah tried to take a step, the warriors standing next to her blocked her.
“···What is it?”
“Strangers should not interfere in a sacred duel.”
The warriors spoke in heavy voices.
“The duel is not over yet.”
“Is that fight between those kids a sacred duel?”
“If there is a fight where blood flows, it is a duel. A warrior’s pride and honor!”
“It’s a very… interesting perspective…”
It was just as the warriors said.
The duel was not over, and Rania managed to deliver a few more headbutts. Sarah looked fed up as she watched the warriors cheering every time blood broke out.
