21 – Envy and Duel

Born Zaborg.

If you dare to start with a male character in the ‘Legend Route’, I recommend Born Zaborg. Because it’s a character with powerful abilities and useful traits at the same time.

「Surging Courage」 (Class B)

[Increases resistance to all status ailments by 50%. If you get a fatal status ailment, you have a 25% chance to overcome it, and you won’t die instantly from the status ailment.]

Abnormal status resistance is a must-have ability in the middle of the game. If you don’t get resistance to abnormal conditions through items, skills, or even in other ways, you will have various difficulties in the boss fight.

If you meet a boss who has abnormal status skills like Sierra Grimkeeper, the game is over.

This status ailment resistance is useful not only against bosses, but also against normal monsters.

In this respect, there is a considerable merit in guaranteeing status abnormalities in the characteristics. In particular, from the perspective of a speed runner, it may be more attractive than Sara’s characteristics.

The characteristics you want to copy if possible.

However, copying its characteristics is unfortunately impossible for me.

「Transcendence copy」 (EX rank)

[Once every 24 hours, copy the opponent’s characteristics. Copied traits become stronger than the original. In order to copy the trait, you must kiss the opponent. When a character with the original trait dies, the copied trait disappears.]

The prerequisite for copying a trait is kissing the other person.

And Born Zaborg’s gender is undoubtedly male.

-Born Zaborg, I am gay. And, the gay in front of you says he likes you.

-!?

-Bye

A terrible scene runs through my head. Shaking the whale, he shook off his thoughts. There’s no way I’ll have the characteristics of Born Zaborg. I’d rather bite and suck with Ralph Leoris.

-John boy! In fact, I love you fiercely!

Ah, isn’t this one too?

Let’s take care of ourselves. The genre almost changed.

“This is ridiculous!”

Is it because it has the characteristic of “Surging courage”?

Bornza Borg, the ‘silver-haired nobleman’, had no hesitation in expressing his opinion even during his entrance ceremony. All eyes of the students were on him.

“I can’t be in third place! And John Baker, who is that student!?”

A student entering the academy runs amok without knowing the subject… I couldn’t say . He is a direct descendant of the Zaborg family. The Zaborg family is also a great noble family, just like the Leoris family.

Of course, even among the noble families, there is a subtle hierarchy, and the Leoris family is at the top of the hierarchy, but the Zaborgs family is also not a family that can be defeated anywhere. If you purely look at the prestige of the family, it is higher than the Swordhorn family.

“Student Born Zaborg. Be solemn It is the entrance ceremony now.”

There was a person who stopped Born Zaborg like that. He was a tall man with a black body. From his head to his toes, it’s full of muscles that don’t seem like a single needle would go in.

If Arsha is a healthy brown, the other side of her is completely pitch black.

Of course. Because he was black

“Professor Kerr!”

“Professor Joseph Kerr. He said he was the only former slave gladiator to become an academy professor?”

“I heard that you are comparable to Professor Chepes in terms of pure skill.”

“A. It must be a rumor How can a former gladiator compare to a sword master?”

“That’s not the point. Professor Joseph Kerr’s place is over 30cm tall.”

“Wow. It’s really f*cking big.”

Professor Joseph Kerr.

He, the deputy head of the academy’s swordsmanship department, appeared. The uproar of the students was calmed down by the majestic and majestic figure that looked like a condensed giant cannonball.

But Born Zaborg was an exception. He felt that his own grades were very important to him.

“Professor Joseph Kerr. Something is wrong with this! How did I not even get to the top 3!? I’m sure…”

“The Zaborg Student.”

Professor Joseph’s voice lowered. A great storm seems to emanate from him. Even Bornza Borg shrugged at the heavy pressure that covered his surroundings.

“This remark is an insult to the academy.”

Unlike a former gladiator, his tone was infinitely polite, but the atmosphere inside was not at all like that. At that, Born Zaborg’s face became a blank sheet. Man-yong, which he had just played, went in.

“I’m sorry. I apologize for what I just said.”

Born Zaborg, a son of a noble family, apologized. No matter how noble he is, he is now a student at the academy.

“Let’s go! Let’s do it in moderation Today is a pleasant entrance ceremony.”

It was Professor Flora who clapped her hands and sorted things out. Unlike Professor Joseph, who had her stern face, she had a grin and a funny look on her face.

It’s a completely different face from the weight he showed in the first entrance exam. This is the real Professor Flora.

I saw a similar expression on the face of Ralph Leoris. Flora, like Ralph, was an eccentric who loved surprises. That’s probably why she held the kissing event earlier.

“Well, it’s not like I don’t understand Zaborg-kun’s feelings. If so, I will prove it here.”

“Ha, head of department!”

Professor Joseph expressed embarrassment at Professor Flora’s explosive remarks.

“Isn’t that okay? Looking at Zaborg-kun’s expression anyway, I think he’ll challenge Mr. Baker to a duel right away?”

Bornja Borg nodded his head at Professor Flora’s remark.

“Yes. Make his place and I will prove it. That I am superior to that John Baker!”

The word superiority is used without hesitation. Because I am a commoner.

From noble mtl dot com

Well, I don’t feel particularly offended. Born Zaborg was originally such a character.

“Okay. But, I mean. People should be held accountable for their words. You know what?”

Professor Flora smiled and said that. Her eyes, drawing her crescent moon, turn to her born. Born Zaborg answered without hesitation.

“Of course! Nobles are responsible for their own words.”

“If Zaborg-kun can’t prove that he’s better than Baker…. Can I expel you from the academy?”

Expulsion.

Around her remarks made a stir.

“This, expulsion at the entrance ceremony?”

“If expelled, it would be unprecedented.”

“No way, do you accept those conditions? There is such a thing as if.”

“However, the opponent is a commoner with a handsome face….”

There was a crack in Born Zaborg’s confident expression. He knows very well that nothing is 100% in the world. Will he be able to take the risk of expulsion?

But Born Zaborg had no choice. So far, he has come out confidently, but if he rolls up his tail for fear of expulsion, his reputation, which is as important as his life, suffers a devastating blow.

Professor Flora’s expulsion statement must have had that in mind. It’s like a punishment for a student who caused a disturbance at the academy entrance ceremony.

As expected, underneath that smiley face, there is a cunning like a fox. Her official nickname is ‘The Maiden of Thorns’, but she is also called ‘The Fox of the Sword’ by another nickname.

“I will accept it! However, if I win, I think the same risk must go to Johann Baker! It proves that he got first place in the academy by fraudulent means!”

Born Zaborg wore his own hair. It’s a kind of ghost operation. If I get scared and refuse the conditions, then I will have a reason to reject the conditions myself. But.

“I will accept it.”

Can I refuse?

If Bornza Borg’s gender was female, she would have tried to make her likeable somehow, but you’re male.

I’m not interested in you until you pick it up.

No, even if it comes on time, TS is a bit like that.

That’s how the instant duel between me and Born Zaborg was established.

“An entrance ceremony duel. Perhaps it’s because of the golden generation, unprecedented things often happen!”

The gray-haired old man, smiling benevolently, clapped his hands and said. Like Flora Tzepes, he seemed to regard the situation itself as a play. It was Taylor Grass, the dean of the academy.

“Trouble.”

Sylvie Mercu, a professor of magic and alchemy, looked at the impromptu arena with an expressionless expression as she tightened her white gown.

I was going to finish the tedious entrance ceremony quickly and do my research, but I was stuck. This in itself was a difficult situation for her, who placed great importance on her efficiency.

“Hey hey… ! Fighting between students from the entrance ceremony…. After all, the kids are very scared….”

A sullen female professor full of dark circles shrinks her body and turns her head away.

As much as the students, the professors also drew out various personalities.

It was Johann Baker and Born Zaborg who climbed onto the arena.

Johann Baker is an incoming student who passed the academy entrance exam with a perfect score, and Born Zaborg is a rookie who is making a fortune these days. Either way, a student who can’t give up at the academy.

“Dean. How do you intend to mediate the duel between those students?”

Professor Joseph Kerr asked in a voice close to a sigh.

For the academy, it was a huge loss for one side to be expelled according to the conditions set by Professor Tzepes. Besides, if Born Zaborg is expelled, it could be difficult to deal with.

The Zaborg family is one of the biggest sponsors of the academy. Of course, with that sponsorship, I never gave preferential treatment to students from the Zaborg family. Because fairness is a value that the academy should consider like life.

Whoever caused the duel, if Born Zaborg is expelled, the reputation of House Zaborg will be ruined. Then, from the Zaborg family’s point of view, support will be reduced, and as a result, the academy may find itself in a difficult situation.

In the end, the best the academy can do is mediate the fight. However, Professor Chepes rather ignited the fight.

“Originally, children grow up fighting each other.”

Dean Grass continued his conversation leisurely, stroking his beard.

“Professor Flora is also a pro at this. Professor Flora went in as the referee for the duel, so he will end it in a draw at the right time.”

Flora wasn’t just pitting the two students for his own fun.

According to her words, Born Zaborg’s challenge to Johann to a duel was predestined. It was decided that it would be better to set up an official meeting and dispose of unexploded bombs than to create a commotion by fighting a duel out of reach of the faculty.

“I see…. My judgment was short.”

Professor Kerr stuck out his tongue and admired Flora’s skill. She was, after all, a person several steps ahead of him, both as a prosecutor and as an educator. He is a senior that one has deep admiration for.

Two boys stood on the arena. Born Zaborg on the left, Johann Baker on the right.

Standing in the middle, Flora looked back at the two and vigorously declared.

“Begin the duel!”
