259 Episode 26 Marriage Over Several Years

SIDE: Alma

When did Herman confess?

I remember being happy.

He seemed to be a serious Hellman even if he tripled and put strange conditions on it, and he woke me up.

But because I hate losing... I didn't want to lose, even though I wanted to get married.

I want to marry Herman as soon as possible.

I love Herman.

Serious and strong, Herman really respects it.

But I didn't want to lose.

For a long time... I hated losing, and I often bothered my sister and brother at the orphanage.

It seems that I entered the orphanage when my parents, who were adventurers, died and were taken over by the Imperial City orphanage.

I don't remember much about my father and mother.The only memories of your father and mother are the smiles of leaving the house.I can't remember anything else.

Originally, they were hardly at home, so I was always alone at home.

So I was very happy and relieved to be in an orphanage and have a family in my house.

Everyone was kind.

The grandmother at the orphanage taught me a lot of things.

My grandmother taught me everything from letters and this world to magic and swordsmanship.

I... I didn't really like studying letters, but how many times have I thanked my grandmother for letting me know?

Of course, my favorite time was swordsmanship.

My grandmother taught me how to swing a sword, and I was so tired that I couldn't stand up.

It seemed that I had the gift of swordsmanship, so I quickly improved, and I couldn't beat children my age.

That's why I've always had oniichan and sisters with me.

Well, of course, if I'm older than you, I'll get beaten by cotton bread.

The difference between one and two years of age of a child is so big that it can't be compared to that of an adult, so I can't help it if I say I can't help it.

But I couldn't admit it.

Apparently, my aversion to losing started at this time.

Until I won every day, I challenged oniichan and oneechan and cried because I couldn't win.

Then, when the gentle oniichan, who seemed to have seen it, tried to defeat me, he got angry and cried even more.

No, when I think about it, I was a lot of trouble to everybody back then...

My reluctance to lose has calmed down a little since I graduated from the orphanage.

I understand that there is an upper part.

Especially in that Knights entrance exam.

Mr Bernold, stronger than Hellman, who easily defeated me, was completely defeated by Mr Leo.

No matter how hard Leo works, he can't win.This was the first time I admitted my defeat.

However, I wasn't the kind of person who could forgive me for being so weak. After joining the Knights, Bernold taught me all sorts of things, but I got stronger and stronger.

That's why I got the same power as the other Herman I lost so easily.

You know, I was really happy the first time I beat Herman.

Because I realized that I had become very strong.

But Herman soon beat me.

Once I could win, I thought I had to beat him, and when I lost to Herman again, I felt reluctant to lose again.

I practiced every day trying to make an overwhelming difference and win.

But just like me, they were practicing against me.

That kept us from deciding for the rest of our lives.

"I wish you'd given up already....."

It's not bad to lose three times and get married, but I wanted to win three times and say, "Marry me."

But we can't win or lose, so we can't say anything.

True, if you give up, I'll offer you a marriage right away.

"I won't give up. I'm going to win you three straight wins here today."

"On the contrary, I'll win three straight wins."

That's how we pulled out the sword.And start attacking immediately.

We already know each other.

I don't need to see how it goes.

Since then... how long has it been?

Even though Leo and the others are coming, we can't play such a funny game...

Today's results are all sixteen draws so far.

"Hey... can we change the rules? Leo and the others are bored with the boulders."

I thought it tasted bad, so I made such a suggestion to Herman.

If it's the first time today, there's no need for that, but I don't know how many years I've been showing this development.

It's definitely not going to work like this.

"Sure... but what kind of rules are we going to change?"

How about banning the use of skills?

If the transparent skills can no longer be used by each other, it should be easier to settle.

When I'm about to lose, I'll do a lot of hit-and-run.

"Huh? Are you sure? And then Alma...."

"What, I'm gonna be weak?Would you stop licking me? You've used your skills many times when you're in danger. "

Hellman has magic eyes, so it should be a fair game.

"That's right. Okay. Compete without skills."

Thus, the battle against the use of skills began.

Side: leon's

"Suddenly they stopped, but what were you talking about?"

I saw Herman and Alma start a conversation and asked Bell about the conversation.

It seems that even a beast can hear you from that distance.

"They decided to change the rules.If it stays this way, it won't be settled. "

"Oh, so, what kind of rules did you change?"

Certainly, if it stays this way, it's going to end just as usual with a draw.

I think it's a good decision.

"Prohibit skill use and fight."

Oh, that's a bolder rule change than I thought.

"Oh, that would certainly make it easier to win or lose."

"Yeah, but isn't Alma a disadvantage?Alma is a strong fighter, right? "

That's right. Putting counters through the opponent's attacks is Alma's favorite tactic.

Alma uses Transmission more often than Herman does.

"That's not true.Hellman, I think it's hard if you can't use your skills.Here, Herman just lost. "

While explaining to Shelley, Herman died from Alma's poison.

"Huh? Ah, while I wasn't watching!"

"If you can't use the Magic Eye, you can't follow Alma's movements."

Is this Herman's pinch?

SIDE: Alma

All right, let's start with one win.

Two more victories at this rate.

With that in mind, I head for the resurrected Herman.

The first round was taken with a sword, and the second round was avoided with a sliding body.

But my third and fourth attack is not over yet.

The Herman must evade my sword now that it is impenetrable.

If I hit my sword with one shot, it will kill me with a scratch.

In contrast, if I can avoid fatal wounds, I can take some Herman attacks.

Cheating? No, strategy.

While doing so, my sword stuck to Herman's foot.

"This is my second win."

One more win. It's finally over...

When I see the Herman resurrected, I run toward the Herman in the same way as the first and second wins.

I'll finish my triple victory in the same way.

I thought so, but somehow... I was in two.

"That doesn't work the same way.Alma is as sweet as ever. "

Lie? Why? I did everything I could to avoid my attack.

I didn't know why I lost, but I took a distance.

Until we figure out why we lost...

With that in mind, the Herman came to me defending the slash with the slash.

Huh? Liar...

The offensive defense was reversed just now.

No. I'm not very disadvantaged now that I can't use the transmission when I turn around.

Ah, that was a bad attempt to distance you...

While I was thinking about it, Herman won a second victory.

"One more win..."

When I was resurrected, the Herman said so and held the sword and waited for me.

Does this mean... you're going to take all my attacks and win?

"Let's take it and stand.I'm going to put you back in the pocket again. "

That said, I used my all-attribute magic.

This Arena heals wounds but does not heal magic.

That's why you can't really use magic like this... but Herman is definitely going to run out of magic here.

No, it's been fully open for two years.

Herman is going to put everything on the line for these three fights.

"I'm sure it's better to win here today."

As I murmured, I kicked the ground as hard as I could.

Slashing from the front looks like a blow from behind.

I knew it was being read. It feels like you know my habits completely.

Good. Still, I'll overwhelm you with speed.

I accelerated even further.

While swinging backwards, backwards, left, and right, he makes every attack.

Then, gradually, I gained an advantage.

After all, if I keep attacking, I'll have the advantage.

When I thought so, I had a chance to settle immediately.

The Herman is a little empty and cannot defend in time.

Fufu, I got it.

I waved my sword at my feet.

But I noticed it after shaking it.

This is a trap...

And as I thought, when I noticed, Herman's sword was coming towards my neck.

Normally, you can avoid it with this much transmission...

As a result, the Herman's sword hit my neck faster than my sword reached my feet.

Side: herman

I finally won. I was really anxious when Alma beat me twice in a row, but I'm glad I managed to stay there.

With that in mind, he collapsed next to Alma, whose neck was connected.

I can't believe it was so hard to win a triple victory...You've fought Alma so hard that you don't know how many fights this is.

Really, it was tough. How many times have I regretted my words?

But... this battle made me so strong.

In the end, it might have been good.

"Ah, I realized it was a trap on the way..."

Looks like Alma's recovery is over.

I got up and reached out to Alma.

"Alma is sweet stuffed.I took advantage of that. "

"Ah, my idiot! If only you could endure it there ~"

Saying so with regret, Alma took my hand and stood up.

Ha, congratulations on the triple victory.

"Thank you. Um..."

Where did you put the ring in your pocket?

Not this way, not here...

"Ah, well, Alma, marry me."

When I found the ring, I immediately gave it to Alma and said what I was going to say if I won.

I can finally say it... This is enough for me to cry.

Hey, did you have this for me?

"Actually... my master built it a long time ago."

A long time ago, Leo, who knew that he confessed to Alma, prepared this...

Everything is called an engagement ring.

"That's right. I've been hiding it for a long time."

"Yeah."

"Ah, I'm happy, but I'm not happy because I'm sorry.Herman, we'll fight again tomorrow! "

Ha ha ha. Looks like Alma hates losing.

You can't relax just because you won.I have to work hard and get stronger from tomorrow.

"Yeah, I'll take it anytime. So... can I ask you the answer?"

"Of course, you can get married.The truth is, I was going to win and feel so good that I was going to sign up for marriage ~ "

"Really, was it? I'm glad I didn't lose."

If Alma had offered to marry me after losing, my pride would have fallen apart...

I'm really glad I won.

With that in mind, I put a ring on Alma's left ring. [M]

This was also taught by the master.The ring seems to have the best left ring finger.

Really, Master just taught me...

Herman, will you continue to be my guest?

Yeah. Nice to meet you.

After fitting the ring, we hugged each other. [M]

Ah, you're so happy... I wish this time had continued.

With that in mind, Alma grabbed my face with both hands.

"This is a reward for the winning Herman."

That kiss made my face bright red. [M]

That surprise was cheating...
