With people from all over the world flocking to witness the rare fight, Arks atmosphere was bustling.
The vacant dorms were now filled to capacity, and strangers chattered in unknown languages on every street.
The execution of the Queens assassin is on the day after tomorrow, right?
Im looking forward to it! So, do you know whos going to be the Queens champion?
Dont be surprised, but they say that Angmars Demon Monk is stepping forward!
Voices of anticipation reached my sensitive Half-Fairy ears. In my eyes, various placards and flags were being displayed all around.
Trial By Combat Venue Temporary Arena on the 1st floor of the main building.
The place, date and the participants of the trial were written there.
There was really not much time left.
Seeing my name being written made me slightly dizzy and my steps felt light, like walking through clouds.
To think that I, who always prioritized my own safety, would voluntarily enter such a dangerous duel.
However, this was my opponents condition, the Villain Hunter.
If I could personally show a satisfactory fight, he would agree to give up the match and accept going to the barrier.
Also, dueling him was a surefire way of quickly improving my magic. In hindsight, despite the risks, it didnt go against my principle of survival-first.
Then someone suddenly grabbed my ear.
Hieeek!
Well, arent you looking relaxed?
It was Elga, who was walking with me. She seemed more tense than I was, considering the quickly approaching decisive moment.
Are you that confident?
Seuk.
A charm?
Look, its just. The girlfriends or fiances of soldiers who go to the battlefield often make these for them. I dont believe in this stuff. But you might need it, so Ill borrow whatever power a charm has.
Now that I looked closely, a part of Elgas lush hair, which got tied back, was roughly cut. It seemed like she had cut her own hair to make the charm.
Although she always acted bristly, she was still thinking of me How moving
I dont have anything immediate to offer in return. Shall we go into that cozy place over there?
What did you say!
Elga deeply blushed and got embarrassed. She probably picked up on my innuendo.
Im kidding~.
Of course, I was just joking. Elga was in her early pregnancy after all.
It was a time to calm down in many ways.
Elga frowned and grumbled.
You always find a way to poke fun at me, dont you?

I met Mirna Draco with a large bump on my head, which had yet to subside.
Is it Miss Mirna?
Seeing Young Lady Draco after a long while felt nice.
It was a peculiar feeling.
When I first met Lady Draco, I thought she was just a strict and picky person.
However, as we spent time together and faced various challenges, I found myself growing fond of them both. It was just like how a dry handkerchief soaked in moisture in the air, I, too, got soaked in warmth.
Initially, I had no intention of attaching anything like affection to the people of this world. But leaving the palace life had brought about many changes.
Pushing aside the bubbling emotions, I greeted Mirna.
Its been a very long time. Have you been well?
