Volume 1 Chapter 9 part3

When I entered the arena, er there

Well, I was grateful that I didn't have to talk with her I didn't knohat I would discuss with her, other than about the bomb, but…it was installed secretly

Anjelica atching Jilk's green ar in the arena

“Oh look, I've keptserious”

Jilk ca to a battlefield

As I entered my armor, Luxon made a report to me

[It seeic]

Boah

“Guys like Jilk are thetype He excels in his e or excellent abilities in other fields He can adapt no matter the situation”

Julian is better in close range battles, while Jilk is a character that triue ones He had no peculiarities, was easy to ith, and was excellent He was a reliable character in the game

Well, he was also an irritating character who had a high degree of difficulty in capturing him

Getting down onto the arena, Jilk voiced out

“──You're strong I'll give you my respect for that”

“Why yes, thank you”

Once the referee signaled that it had begun, Jilk aiht hand towards er without any hesitation while throwing a grenade

[It's a smokescreen]

“It see around”

My surroundings rapped in a white smoke

In the white sh up as he could

Since flying too high results in disqualification, he flew up to the very li his rifle and grenades from overhead

“I hope that he'll go doith this”

He played a hand that he didn't want to use that much

He reached out to Leon's sister and handed her a boive it to her directly, but instead had a schoolboy be the middleman

If the matter became public, it wouldn't hurt Julian's reputation, and it would just be seen as a schoolboy acting rashly while worrying about Julian

The arena was encased in sic circle appeared before Jilk Inside it, Leon's figure showed up, which hat Jilk was looking for

“You're a danger I will dispose of you here”

He pulled the trigger of the rifle

His rifle was used by theit out during a duel within the acadearner much respect, but his opponent was Leon

He couldn't say that he was able to play it safe after his opponent had flaunted an overwhel difference in ability so far

“…Your life ended the ive you a spectacular finish here!”

The bullet hit Leon's armor, specifically the head

It was clearly a shot meant to take his life

However──

“W, what?!”

Leon looked up at the sky as if nothing had happened

He showed off by waving while looking calm

“Tsk!”

He threw a grenade and readied his rifle He loaded a bullet into the bolt action mechanism, and fired

Jilk had used his last resort, resulting in the cal wrapped up in an explosion In order to activate the explosive he had set, he released a specific , but its reaction with the boe explosion on Leon's back

“He'll take dae from this direct hit!”

However, he couldn't find Leon's figure within the arena It did not seerated, it just looked like he had disappeared altogether

“Where is he? Where the hell is he?!”

Then, Jilk felt a sense of discomfort when a shadow, one that could block the sun, quickly appeared There was not a single cloud in the sky, though

When he looked up, he saw Leon's figure in the rear

“Yo”

He readied his rifle while Leon took a nose dive and headed towards him

He pulled the trigger, but even though it was a shot to the armor at point-blank, the bullet was repelled

“How did you withstand that explosion?”

“What a heavy blow that was If you knohat I mean” (TLN: There's supposed to be soinal text with the phrase きつい一発 Anyone knohat it is?)

Jilk, realizing that what he said hinted atit Leon stopped it with his shovel, and Jilk began to talk to hi the audience hear

“──You know nothing”

“Look in mirror and say that You are not sane”

“Do you plan on dueling with his Highness? Your life as a noble will end”
