“What is going on! “It’s a fight!”
Herdium urged the two with a white face.
Currently, the two people were leaving the party, which had a chaotic atmosphere.
Runia was turning her head, and Leo was adjusting his clothes with a calm expression.
Halind, who was watching the scene, asked.
“What is the cause? “Who was at fault first?”
Runia was momentarily startled by Halind’s cold voice.
There was no teacher of Halind’s type in Seirun.
Herdium frowned.
“Are you questioning our student now?”
“You have to know what the problem is to solve it.”
“what! great! Student Runia is our school’s first-year representative! “I am not a student who will make mistakes!”
Herdium, who spoke confidently, said to Leo.
“Student Leo Plov. “What caused the fight?”
Leo said calmly as he looked at Herdium, who was blatantly asking him that he was at fault.
“I guess I made a small mistake.”
“aha! I knew it would! There is no way student Runia could have done anything wrong… … !”
“Teacher Herdium. “Do you think it’s unfair to push things one-sided like that?”
“What are you talking about! Now student Leo Plov has not admitted his mistake… … !”
“If Runia El Lund’a is the first-year representative of Seirun, then Leo Plov is also the first-year representative of Lumern.”
Herdium was surprised to see Halind speaking clearly.
I never thought that Leo would be the first-year representative.
Basically, Seilun wasn’t very interested in other schools’ affairs.
“Definitely.”
Herdium flinched when Harlind’s cold gaze touched her.
“Just as Teacher Herdium believes in his students, I also believe in my students.”
At those words, Leo smiled without realizing it.
Although he was feared among students, Halind’s affection for students was sincere.
‘I guess it’s for the students’ sake that I treat them fearfully.’
Hearing Harlind’s words, Herdium bursts into laughter! I cleared my throat.
“Well, great! Student Runia, what did you hear from student Leo Plov?”
‘I can’t tell this story to anyone else!’
It was a very shameful thing to have Phoenix taken away as the successor to the Lundua family.
If this fact were known to Seirun, it was certain that it would be ridiculed.
Leo said, looking at Runia who was confused as to what to say.
“I signed a contract… … .”
“Ahahaha! “It was just a minor misunderstanding.”
Runia quickly covered Leo’s mouth.
Then he turned on the double wick and glared at Leo.
It was as if he was saying, ‘If you say even one word, I won’t leave you alone!’
When Leo shrugged his shoulders and nodded, Runia withdrew his hand and lowered her head.
“sorry. Teacher Herdium, Professor Halind. Making a fuss in a place of harmony, and… … .”
Runia forced a smile and said hello.
“I’m sorry, Leo Plov. “I apologize for being rude.”
Leo made an amused expression as he looked at Runia, whose mouth was trembling.
Herdium, who saw this, said, ‘Ah! ‘That can’t be possible.’ He said and grabbed his head.
“I think the misunderstanding has been resolved, so let’s continue the party. “Let’s not talk about this anymore.”
Herdium looked at Harlind’s words and nodded.
“Professor Halind and student Leo, please go in first. “I will give separate attention to student Runia.”
With those words, Halind and Leo entered the party hall.
When only the two of them were left outside, Runia lowered her head.
“I’m sorry, teacher.”
“no. There is nothing we can do about it because it has already happened. “Is that the student who got into a fight with Student Tyren during the day?”
“yes.”
“Leo Plov. okay. I remember. “He was the representative student of Lumerun when he entered first year.”
Herdium nodded and crossed his arms.
“Make sure you never make the same mistake in the future. Runia student. “You are the first year representative of Seilun, an excellent talent who will lead our school in the future.”
“all right.”
“And you must never fall behind that Leo Plov student in the joint classes starting tomorrow! We, Seirun, have long preceded Rumern!”
Herdium clenched his fists and showed his competitive spirit.
“You have to keep proving it! We, Seirun, are superior to Rumern! no! “Of all the hero schools, this is the best!”
“I will never lose to that bastard! Don’t worry, I’ll throw it all away! “With Seilun’s honor at stake!”
“Runia crane! “How many times have I told you to stop saying such harsh things?”
Ignoring Herdium, who was holding her head and begging, Runia glared at the party leader with burning eyes.
‘Be prepared! ‘Leo Plov!’
***
The party is over.

However, the atmosphere between the two schools was extremely awkward.
It has to be that way.
There was a fight between those representing each grade from each school.
A feeling of awkwardness, different from before, hovered between the two schools.
Leo, who returned to his dorm, changed into comfortable going-out clothes.
Leo sat on a chair at the table in his dorm, crossed his arms and waited for someone.
Whick!
A shadow passed between the windows.
Before I knew it, the snowstorm had stopped.
When I looked out the window, Runia was there.
Runia made eye contact with Leo and chanted a small spell.
Click-!
The window opened and Runia came inside.
“Were you waiting for me?”
“Judging by his personality, I thought he would come on a moonlit night.”
“Then would you like to explain? “How did you end up stealing my contractor!”
“I think there is some ambiguity in saying that it was stolen, right? “I only signed a contract with Fiora at the recommendation of Pirina-sama.”
“gibberish! I have been chosen by Pirina to be Fiora’s contractor since I was five years old! How much I have cared for Fiora since I was young! Always together when we go out to play! We took a bath together every day! “And dress me up!”
“Fiora hatched three months ago?”
“I can take good care of it even when it’s an egg!”
“Get to know the other pledgers. “Pirina feels sorry for you, so she’s working hard to find another phoenix.”
To the average person, Phoenix is a rare phantom beast that can only be found in legends, but with the influence of the Lundua family, you can find any number of Phoenixes worth contracting with.
“It can’t be anything other than that kid!”
Leo sighed as he looked at Runia screaming with tears in her eyes.
‘I’m sure I’m sorry.’
It is very rude for a contractor to intercept the stipulated refund.
In severe cases, it can be life-threatening.
Although Pirina arranged a contract between Leo and Fiora, that was because she expected that a contract would be impossible.
It’s not unreasonable.
No matter how good his qualifications are, how can someone who has not yet mastered the summoning technique make a contract with Phoenix?
However, Leo made a contract with Fiora and this situation occurred.
Although it was literally no one’s fault, Runia was clearly deprived of her contract.
‘Besides, Phoenix only has one contractor.’
Pirina offered a contract to Leo the other day, but she only made an exception because he was the benefactor’s son.
The noble Phoenix was a phantom beast who was famous for not having two sworn allies.
“How carefully I took care of Fiora! Sobbing! We were always together! Ugh! But you are no longer my contractor! Fioraaaaa! “Ugh!”
Leo asked as he looked at Runia, who had already fallen to the floor and started sobbing mournfully.
“What should I do?”
Runia suddenly stopped crying.
And then I glanced at Leo.
“Then will you do me a favor?”
“If only I could help.”
“Due with me.”
“what?”
“I’ll prove it! “The fact is that I am a more suitable phoenix than you!”
Leo chuckled, looking at his blazing red eyes.
“Shall we go out?”
***
Leo and Runia left the dorm and headed to a large vacant lot with few people.
The two left their footsteps in the white snow field and settled down far away from each other.
“I’m warning you.”
“huh?”
“If you think it won’t work, surrender quickly. “Don’t get hurt for no reason.”
Leo chuckled at Runia’s words.
“Are you worried?”
“No need to worry.”
Runia snorted and crossed her arms.
“I only told you this because you are the son of my father’s benefactor, Lady Raina!”
After saying that, Runia took out a coin from her pocket.
“The moment this coin lands, the duel begins.”
“okay.”
“then.”
Ding-! Whirriririririk!
The gold coin that floated high in the air fell down, sparkling in the moonlight.
Tuk-!
Grumbling!
Grumbling!
The aura of the flame and the magic power of the flame flickered at the same time.
Runia narrowed her eyes when she saw Leo’s spark.
‘Jerdinger’s flame. A family blessed by the Phoenix like ours.’
As one of the few families in the world that wields the power of the Phoenix, Runia felt a sense of victory.
‘I’ll never lose!’
“I call you by the name of the contractor.”
Five summoning circles appeared around Runia.
Along with him, Salamander, a mid-level phantom beast with fire attributes, appeared.
The bipedal phantom beast Salamander was a phantom beast that spewed fire from its mouth and freely used both hands.
“Five Intermediate Hwansu?”
Leo was impressed, but it wasn’t over.
As soon as Runia chanted the spell, a spear and shield of flame were created in Salamander’s hands.
Leo laughed as he watched Runia quickly strengthen Salamander using magic.
“As expected, you are the representative of Seilun’s school year.”
“You have a lot of free time? But I haven’t even started yet? “Everyone please!”
Runia, who had entrusted the front line to Salamander, quickly distanced herself from Leo and began to chant a spell.
Leo muttered as he faced the five salamanders that were pressuring him.
“He leaves the battle to the phantom beasts and uses powerful spells himself… … “It’s classic.”
“It’s the traditional fighting method of the elves! Because Luna fought like this too!”
By today’s standards, Luna was evaluated as a traditional wizard who turned the battlefield upside down with powerful spells.
“Definitely these days, Luna is known as a traditional wizard.”
Leo chuckled.
“But you’re wrong.”
“what?”
“If you look at it these days, Luna is a combat-oriented wizard.”
A wizard who roams the battlefield endlessly and casts spells without stopping.
The battlefield that Kyle and his colleagues traversed was a direct result of death the moment they stopped moving to use it.
The only time Luna stopped moving and chanted a spell was on the battlefield where there was some space.
Nevertheless, the reason why Luna is known as the traditional type in this era is simple.
‘Because even in the midst of such hectic movements, each and every blow was powerful enough to turn the battlefield upside down.’
A flawless wizard.
That was Luna, the progenitor of the nebula.
“Huh~ I guess humans think that way. But when it comes to the progenitor, wouldn’t the elf records be closer to the truth than the human records?”
I slowly opened my eyes.
While they were talking, Leo reverse-summoned five Salamanders.
If Runia had supported Salamander more, she would not have been able to suppress it so quickly.
But now Runia was concentrating all her mind on magic.
‘Now if I just defeat Runia.’
Leo quickly closed the distance between himself and Runia.
Then, as soon as I made eye contact with Runia, who was smiling brightly, I quickly widened the distance.
“Does it feel good?”
Runia smiled and raised her right hand wide open.
A sphere of flame the size of a house was created.
Grumbling!
All the snow around melted due to the intense heat.
“Scorching heat. “It’s our family’s ultimate magic.”
It was a magic that used the power of the phoenix, like the Jerdinger family’s Phoenix Breath.
But no fool would take the brunt of that powerful magic.
‘Of course, if it were that level of magic, the fragments alone would have a level of power that could not be ignored… … .’
“Are you okay? “Magic using the power of the Phoenix would be half as powerful to me.”
It was like that.
Leo’s flame and Runia’s flame were basically powers of the same nature.
As such, Runia’s magic was unable to inflict complete damage on Leo.
“I guess so. But I will defeat you with this magic.”
“why?”
“This is not just a duel. This is a fight to prove that I am a better ally for Fiora than you. So it’s not enough to simply win.”
Runia made a serious expression.
“This is my pride as an ally of Phoenix.”
“okay? “Then accept the challenge.”
“what?”
For a moment, Runia paused, unable to understand what Leo meant.
However, without thinking too much, I sent the magic towards Leo.
“Be prepared!”
A flame like a small sun attacked Leo.
Grumble-!
A flame flickered in Leo’s body.
Leo took a deep breath and swung his sword towards the scorching heat.
Googoo googung!
Runia’s eyes were filled with astonishment at that sight.
“Are you out of your mind! “If you do something wrong, you’ll die!”
“You want to prove that you are an ally worthy of Fiora? “Then I’ll prove it to you too!”
Runia, who was urgently trying to cancel the magic, stopped.
“Why did Fiora choose me!”
Runia opened her mouth.
‘okay? Then I will accept the challenge.’
‘Is this what you meant? ‘This isn’t completely crazy!’
If you attack Leo now, you can easily win.
But now the duel is no longer just a battle of skills.
As a summoner versus a summoner.
And as a user of the Phoenix’s power, it became a battle of pride.
Sigh-! Sigh-!
Leo continued to step back, blocking the scorching heat.
But even so, Leo’s flame continued to gnaw away at Runia’s flame.
‘Even stronger! Even more fiercely!’
Grumble-! Quaaaaa!
Leo’s flame greedily devoured the fragments of flame that fell from Runia’s magic.
‘You’re making your firepower even stronger by injuring your own body?’
It was not a common method.
It is a method that cannot be imagined.
He unleashes more firepower than is allowed, even while getting injured!
Nevertheless, Leo endlessly consumed Runia’s flame.
And before long… … .
Grumbling!
Leo’s flame swallowed up everything that was left behind.
dump-
Runia was so shocked that her legs lost strength and she fell down without realizing it.
Turp-plop-
Leo, who had roughly torn off his shirt, which was now a pile of ashes and was no longer functional, walked in front of Runia.
Runia looked up blankly at Leo.
“If you want a proper duel, I’ll fight you that way. “What should I do?”
“haha! Ahahahahaha!”
Runia burst into laughter without realizing it.
“no. “I lost.”
How can you continue to be angry at someone who has received your anger head-on like this?
Runia got up from her seat and said with a bitter smile.
“I’d rather admit it than not. Sorry for being presumptuous. “I sincerely apologize.”
“are you okay. “I would be angry too.”
‘… … Even though they are representatives of the same first year, there is such a difference. It’s embarrassing.’
I was embarrassed by the other person’s large size.
“I acknowledged you, but I didn’t give up.”
Runia said with her arms crossed.
“I will prove that I am an ally worthy of Fiora! So that Fiora can choose me later!”
Fiora pointed at Leo Plov with her hand.
“So Leo Plov! From now on, you are my rival!”
“Think whatever you want.”
“I’ll be looking forward to the joint class tomorrow.”
Leo chuckled as he watched Runia turn around with her red hair flowing.
“I will try to live up to your expectations.”
