Even though it was Bellion’s memory from the thought beads, it felt vivid and real as if I had experienced it myself.
Bellion’s blow toppling the Demon Lord – The posture, breathing, and fine movement of the muscles that Bellion took at the time.
My body naturally began to follow Bellion’s movements in my head.
The process was so natural that I felt like someone was controlling my body.
Pow wo wooo
“Way to go! popi.”
The shouts of the baby Yakum and the fairy could be heard in my head, while the fairy powder glitters around me.
Just a moment ago I was barely holding the sword, but now miraculously I gained strength.
The opponent in front of me can be seen more vividly and my breathing stabilized.
For the first time, a change occurred in Gladion’s face, which was always relaxed.
When I suddenly released an unusual energy rather than falling down to the ground, a little anxiety appeared on Gladion’s face.
He didn’t want to make any more variables, so Gladion quickly raised his spirits.
I could feel the will to quickly end the duel in his eyes.
-Focus all your strength on the sword. Don’t think about anything else. Pour it all out at once
Hearing Bellion’s voice in my head, each and every cell in my body got ready for one last attack.
There was a heavy tension between Gladion and me.
The surrounding space was cut off and I felt like time was passing slowly.
The confrontation, which felt very long, was coming to an end…
As the Gladion moved, I quickly moved forward, kicking the ground.
As we approached each other, Gladion’s sword began to move first.
Then my sword followed and flashed.
KIRING
Both of our attacks crossed each other quickly.
There was only a short, harsh breath around.
COUGH
I clasped my shoulders and knelt down on one knee.
Following a burning sensation, a stabbing pain spread throughout my whole body.
With the sharp pain, my vision started to blur.
From above my bowing head came the murmur of Gladion.
“I… won.”
“NO!”
It was immediately followed by Kael’s voice.
“……..?”
“Young Lord of the Selberg family. This duel is your defeat.”
“What are you talking about?! I’ve definitely disabled the opponent, haven’t I?”
“While disabling your opponent, you seem to have lost something even more precious?”
“……..Huhhhh?”
Gladion, who realized something late, groaned like a scream.
There was no expression on my face, but he seemed to have a stunned look on his face.
– Look at his face. Good work, disciple. It was a bit sloppy, but it was a pretty cool blow.
I heard Bellion’s voice in a situation where I’m having a hard time keeping my eyes open.
“Did I win?”
-Of course. The evidence lies before you.
I slightly raised my head and looked at the evidence of victory that had fallen to the ground.
It was the horn that had been on Gladion’s head a little while ago.
-Hahaha, Living without a horn is more disgrace to a Demon than living crippled. So this duel…. is of course your victory.
I couldn’t believe what Bellion was saying, so I kept looking at the horns that were cut blankly.
The last blow I just did felt like a dream.
Like me who didn’t realize what had just happened, there was a Demon, who was also confused by the reality in front of him.
“I…. I lost? That can’t be true… something’s wrong…”
“Give up. It’s your defeat. Even your father won’t be able to reverse the result.”
Kael calmly emphasized that the fight was decided, while Gladion kept muttering that something was wrong, and suddenly grabbed his sword that had fallen next to him and prepared to wield it.
“I can’t admit it… I won’t admit it!”
“Sihyeon!”
“Senior!”
I heard the urgent cry of Andras and Alfred from behind.
At the same time, I saw Gladion rushing toward me swinging his sword at me.
I felt a chilling sensation running through my spine, and there was a warning sound in my head that I’m in danger, but my body couldn’t move an inch, since I had already poured all my strength into the last attack.
I closed my eyes looking at the sword rushing toward me.
‘Is this it…..’
CLING CLANG CLANG
At that moment instead of the sound of the sword, the sound of chains could be heard.
“What kind of bug dared to touch the best employee of my farm?”
A smile formed unconsciously hearing the voice, which I hadn’t heard for a while.
The anxiety and tension melted away like snow.
“Young Lord!”
“Lordship!”
“Oh, stop moving! I think the bug that I caught is the one you guys serve, so you better not move. I’m not soft like the geezer there, I won’t stop with horns, I’ll pull out his whole head.”
Selberg’s troops faltered at Kaneff’s threat.
Fortunately, they weren’t the only ones who tried to stop Kaneff.
“Stop it.”
“Get out of here, geezer! How dare they do this while I’m away from the farm?”
“It seems like your personality still hasn’t changed.”
“Shut up, geezer! I have to make an example today so that bugs like this won’t dare to come in the direction of the farm. I’ll show them who they’ve upset today.”
“Uhhhhhhhh…”
Gladion, caught in Kaneff’s chain, struggled to breathe properly.
The Selberg family members were only stamping their feet at the appearance of their Young Lord dying slowly.
“If you keep acting like that. I have no choice but to annul this duel regardless of the outcome. If you want to make Sihyeon’s hard-won victory go down the drain, do as you please.”
Kaneff’s momentum, which seemed to explode at any moment like a volcano, calmed down like a lie.
The breathing of the dying Gladion also regained some stability.
CLING CLANG.
The chain moved roughly and threw away Gladion it was holding.
“Ughhhh…!”
“Master Master!”
“Young Lord! Can you hear me! Are you alright?”
Fortunately, the knights moved quickly to prevent their owner from being thrown to the ground.
“Take that bum and get out of here now! If I saw anything connected to Selberg around here, It won’t end with his head, I’ll come for your Lord’s head.”

Kaneff issued a fearsome warning in his angry voice.
The Selberg soldiers packed their drooping Young Lord and disappeared from the place.
“That’s enough, isn’t it?”
“Hahahaha! Seeing that you killed that bad temper of yours at once. I guess you seem to care for Sihyeon a lot.”
“Did you become senile because of old age, geezer? It’s just that the farm won’t run without him.”
Alfred and Andras rushed up to me while Kaneff and Kael were bickering.
“Senior! Are you okay?”
“Please wait, Sihyeon. The potion…. I’ve brought it from Castle….”
Andras immediately ripped off my shoulder and began first aid.
The wound was not light, so slight touch of the wound caused a cold sweat along with sharp pain.
Kael came close to me and examined the wound himself.
“Well, fortunately, your bones and nerves are not seriously damaged. Maybe you’ll have to take it easy for a couple of weeks.”
“Uh-huh.”
“You did a great job, though. You’ve done better than I thought.”
“I couldn’t have done it without the help of everyone and……Sir.”
Kael smiled pleased with my answer.
He left and this time, Kaneff approached me.
Kaneff looked at my condition for a moment and sighed deeply.
“Really, I was just away for a few days, and you caused another accident.”
“This time, it’s not me….. They are the ones….who started the fight…..I did my best to protect the farm.”
When I replied with a look of resentment, Kaneff grinned looking at me.
“Yes, you did a good job, little punk.”
And then he gently patted my head.
Along with patting and proper first aid from Andras, the severe pain in the shoulder subsided a lot.
As the pain disappeared and tension eased, the accumulated fatigue and drowsiness poured in.
Eventually, I fainted.
When I opened my eyes again, I saw the ceiling of the familiar farm building.
I looked around, moving my eyes little by little.
I soon realized that I was lying on my bed in my room.
I tried to slowly rise up because I felt thirsty.
Soon, a feeling of tremendous stiffness came from the shoulder.
‘That’s right… I hurt my left shoulder in the duel.’
“Ugh…”
I groaned and leaned back on the bed.
When I tried to get back up using my other arm, I felt a kind of commotion on the outside, and then the door burst open and someone appeared.
“Papa!”
“Sihyeon!”
Speranza and Lia rushed into the room.
Speranza’s eyes that were looking at me were filled with tears.
“Papa… how are you?”
The pain in my shoulder disappeared as I looked at the tears dripping from my little girl, and my head was full of thoughts that I had to soothe Speranza.
With a bright smile, I patted her head with my left arm.
“Yes, I’m fine, dear. I’m just a little hurt.”
“Really…”
“Yes! Why would Papa lie to Speranza?”
I put one arm on the bed and hugged Speranza.
It was an act to relieve her anxiety, but Speranza began to cry as she buried her face in my chest.
I looked at Lia wanting to know what had happened.
She smiled bitterly and explained.
“I didn’t talk about the duel at all because I was worried about Speranza. But suddenly, Speranza started crying saying ‘Papa is in danger.’”
“What?”
“Yes. And she quietly closed her eyes, and said that she had to call grandpa to help Sihyeon instead of her.”
“Ah…”
Lia’s words reminded me of what happened during the duel.
– Well, I don’t know. When I heard a girl’s voice, I realized that you were fighting with that Demon.
Bellion apparently heard a girl’s voice and said he came to me.
I didn’t pay much attention to it because the situation was urgent.
But after listening to Lia’s words, the girl that Bellion talked about was, maybe Speranza.
‘Is this an ability related to Erul?’
I stroked Speranza and looked at her with a strange expression.
“Did Speranza send Belleon to Papa?”
“Un…, That grandpa helped Papa every day. So I asked him to help papa.”
“I see. Thank you, darling! Thanks to you, Papa was able to win the duel.”
Speranza’s expression brightened slightly when I thanked her.
“Did Papa beat the bad guy?”
“Yeah! I gave the right punishment so that the bad guy would never come here again.”
I bragged about winning the duel with a confident look on my face.
Then, Speranza smiled slightly.
“Hehe, I knew Papa would win.”
“Papa has scolded the bad guys, so you don’t have to worry about it anymore. Okay?”
“Un!”
Speranza smiled with tears still in her eyes.
I felt happy to win the duel and see this cute smile.
Lia’s eyes were slightly teary as she was watching us.
“You’ve worked hard, Sihyeon.”
“Thank you, Lia.”
Feeling proud of the fact that I protected the peace of the farm with my hands, I closed my eyes again and lay comfortably on the bed.
“#[email protected]#!$#?!?!”
“!%@$#?!!”
But soon I opened my eyes, frowning at the sound of a fierce argument coming from downstairs.
“Lia? What’s going on?”
Lia replied with an embarrassed look.
“Well… …Mr. Kael and Boss kept arguing……while Andras and Elaine were trying to stop them…”
“Oh… Lia, can you help me stand up?”
“Why? You have to rest a little more.”

“If I don’t, no one will be able to stop them.”
Lia helped me stand up as if she couldn’t help it.
I held Speranza’s hand in one hand and went down with Lia’s support.
Kael and Kaneff were in a quarrel, while Andras and Alfred tried futilely to stop the two.
The appearance of the two fighting somehow felt friendly, so I smiled brightly without realizing it.
