Chapter 316
“Giruas found us . . . Come over here . ”
After saying that, I left the lord’s mansion and ran to an alleyway .
“Wha, wait for us!”
The girls followed after the suddenly running me in a hurry .
Then . . .
“It’s you huh, Mathias . ”
I encountered Giruas right as I entered the alley .
“Giruas, what are you doing here?”
“I felt a presence of something strong, came here to challenge ’em . . . Never thought it would be you though, Mathias . ”
“But this is outside your country . ”
“Those national borders are full of holes . Areas with lots of monsters barely got any guards . ”
Illegal entry huh . . .
It’s very like him .
Giruas drew his weapon while I was thinking .
” . . . So yeah, this means a match . I’m running out of worthy opponents lately, ya see . ”
Well, there’s probably no one who can match him now at Raginia Union .
This guy is most likely the most talented person in magic combat this current world has seen yet .
His talent is sky high he was even capable of chantless magic subconsciously even before learning it from me .
Once someone like that began training with a Second Academy textbook, it’s only right that no one else at Raginia Union can match him now .
Eis Kingdom has Second Academy students . . . but judging from Giruas in front of me, even the elites of Second Academy students probably can’t win .
This guy has gotten incomparably stronger than the last time we met .
The quality of mana flowing in his body is on a whole different level than before .
To be frank, I’m intrigued with the idea of a match with him myself, however . . .
“Sorry, but I can’t afford to use flashy magic and stand out here . Can we postpone the match for later?”
“Don’t want to stand out eh . . . You in a situation?”
Giruas asked back .
This guy is still a rank S adventurer despite how he looks .
Rank S adventurers aren’t just strong in battle, they’re also expected to lead people in times of crisis .
We can have a decent conversation like this precisely because he’s one of those adventurers .
. . . At least so long as he listens .
“Yeah . There’s a pretty powerful demon here in this town . I don’t want to be found out by that . ”
Hearing that . . . Giruas’ eyes are gleaming .
“Didja say demon? . . . Sounds like fun! Mind if I fight it?”
. . . Yup . I expected this reaction .
But unfortunately, I can’t let him fight the demon .
He’s only going to throw away his life for nothing .
“Unfortunately, that’s impossible . You’re no match for it . ”
“Right back at ya . Y’think I’d let go of a chance to fight strong guys? . . . Unless you’re willing to fight me instead, that is . ”
Well, I also expected this reaction .
Which means . . . I’m also gonna take the action I had prepared beforehand .
I draw my sword .
” . . . Got it . But you’re gonna listen to me if I win . ”
“Oh, yer’ rearing to go now . . . Sure thing . Just ask me anything . ”
Giruas takes a stance with his sword . . . He cast Physical Reinforcement chantlessly .
. . . It’s quite a high level Physical Reinforcement .
You can tell how overwhelming Giruas’s talent in magic just from this .
However . . . It’s still a bit rough around the edges .
Only by polishing talent can you truly demonstrate your power .
“Here goes . ”
I took a step ahead as I said that .
Giruas attempts to meet me with his sword .
I took half a step sideway, slightly shifting my center of gravity to evade that sword .
Then I went straight ahead and placed my sword on Giruas’s neck .
