Defiled Hero

Duel: Izayoi vs Grey

Two days have passed since I proht Grey

「I thought it would be sorandiose」 (Izayoi)

Right now, I'est arena in the capital

I heard that it seatsbroadcast throughout the nation with uilds throughout the world In this world where there are many unfortunate events, this is the first fun event after a long time

People don't often see the E

Many people see on in

Out of the four Eest at hand-to-hand combat Opposed to Grey, is some unknown man

As expected, the bets are nine to one in favor of Grey Unfortunately for the ten percent of people that voted for me, I've already decided to lose

If I lose in this duel, I'll have a reason to separate from Anya and Tsuyuha I'm not a muscle-head that would miss a chance like this

「H, hey Izayoi sniff, let's rethink this This isn't good」 (Tsuyuha)

Tsuyuha has been trying to persuade me to call of the duel this entire time She's seriously worried about me

As she clung to or

「He said he wouldn't go easy on you, you know? Grey really won't go easy you know? You'll be full of holes you know? It'll be really painful you know?」 (Tsuyuha)

「I's」 (Izayoi)

「Wh, why? Why do you have to do painful things? That's sob, that's not normal」 (Tsuyuha)

A round of cheers rose from the audience Grey walked to the center of the arena from the other side

I'll have to go soon

「Tsuyuha, will you let go?」 (Izayoi)

「No! I won't! I'll protect Izayoi, I absolutely won't let anyone hurt you, ever! Ever, I say!」 (Tsuyuha)

「Tsuyuha-chan, you'll protect Izayoi?」 (Anya)

Anya listened quietly nearby She was against it before, but she didn't say anything after I said I had no plan on calling off the duel

「Anya, you're going to let Izayoi go get hi, why?」 (Tsuyuha)

「That's not it, Izayoi said he wanted to do it, and I won't stop him」 (Anya)

We'll get nowhere at this rate Can I not persuade Tsuyuha except by lying?

「Tsuyuha, listen I'm a man I do have a little pride I can't run even if I know I' to lose」 (Izayoi)

In reality I' to run away, sorry Tsuyuha

「That is Izayoi's pride?」 (Tsuyuha)

「Yeah, I'm a swordsman who puts his life on the line」 (Izayoi)

「B, but What will you do if you get beat up」 (Tsuyuha)

「If so happened to interfere with my lifestyle that much, at that time, let's see」 (Izayoi)

「At that time?」 (Tsuyuha)

With the area around her eyes tinged red, Tsuyuha looked at me with unease

「—Tsuyuha Take care of me for the rest of my life」 (Izayoi)

「The rest of your life? Izayoi, are you going to go that far?」 (Tsuyuha)

At that o of me, and wiped her tears

「If you get beat up, I will protect you forever But, don't go and lose easily」 (Tsuyuha)

「Izayoi, do your best」 (Anya)

Without saying anything, I started walking

「How did you e to convince Tsuyuha?」 (Grey)

I act for myself That's what I've decided There's no hesitation Or so it should have been, but what's this There's so stuck in my chest

I feel guilty

「Ignoring ht so as to not bring shao easy I'll fight you with all ive it your all, you may just die」 (Grey)

Just like this is fine I lose, and everything ends

This battle, I will lose

【Broken, the first guild branch entrance】

(TL: Reuild)

「Oh, Lilia The thing is, there's going to be a duel in the capital Grey is going to fight against someone」 (Guildmaster)

「That Emperor-ranked Grey? So that's why all these adventurers are here in the middle of the day」 (Lilia)

「Kuke? Kuke—」 (Rigolo)

「Grey? Strong person?」 (Tear)

「With, Hero Grey, strong person」 (Tear)

「Kukekei, kukkekekukekei?」 (Rigolo)

「Ichayoi, who stronger, said」 (Tear)

「That guy Grey, is it I don't want to admit it, but that person is definitely Eht recently so I don't know But as expected of that person, if you were to becohts, it wouldn't be anything like a fight」 (Lilia)

「That's right Considering Izayoi's achieveht It's al to bet as well Lilia? You should use money at times like these」 (Guildmaster)

「What are you saying to your own daughter? Rather, who is Grey fighting against?」 (Lilia)

「I'm not sure There's no information」 (Guildmaster)
