DEAL

"For beginner class mages, they have to make efforts to awaken their affinities! A beginner mage can't cast more than three spells!! Even to do that, it takes a week of practice and being a genius out of the ordinary. common to be able to make fire sparks!! You still haven't forgotten that, have you master?" She asked with concern on her face.

Alvine didn't know what to do to silence this girl and start their duel without waiting too long. He let her talk nonstop while he took a look at her status.

Ashia Sabar| Demon girl-//| Holy | EP 500000/500000| VIT 1000/1000}

*Tell me Assi, why don't I have enough information about her?* Alvine noticed that compared to her status, Ashia's is very limited when it comes to information.

[it's simple, your inspection skill is currently at level 1]

*I understand now.*

Seeing that Ashia still hadn't finished her lessons, He continued his little chat with Assi.

*One thing has been bothering me for a while now. If you are a succubus and not a programming thing. So where does all this information come from that appears in my field of vision as if I were an android?!*

[Um, you're right, as I explained to you before, I'm just using Randolph's power.]

*Ahh yes, you're still talking about that bästard!!* Alvine them a sudden realization.

[Hahaha, how ironic. The fact that you're so disrespectful to old Randolph!!]

*What do you mean by that?* A feeling of unease suddenly enveloped him. 'Did I say something that shouldn't be said? This mischievous girl won't laugh at anything good!!' he thought.

[No, nothing serious. You just insulted the deity that handles most of the day-to-day business on earth! Hahaha I really really wish he was here to see his arrogant face wither with annoyance.]

!

"Master, master! do you understand what I mean now?!" Finally, she had finished her long speech.

"Um...I get what you mean by that. Can we start our duel now?"

*We'll talk after. Assi, You're going to have to explain some things to me in detail!*

[Hehe]

*Tsk.*

"No problem master. You can take out your sword in your storage bag."

"I'd rather fight with that!" Instantly, two small crimson-colored daggers appeared in Alvine's hand.

"You've always fought with a sword so why do you want to fight with weapons that assassins use? And where did you get those two daggers from?! I didn't see you using your space bag !!" Ashia was surprised to see two daggers suddenly appear in Alvine's hands.

"We've wasted enough time! Get ready to counter me!" Alvine didn't feel anything strange about his actions!

He attacked Ashia with breathtaking speed!

'W- what... since when did he get so fast?! Is this really a speed that is supposed to belong to a novice mage?!' She hastily countered his master's lightning attack bare-handed and unarmed!

'He has strength above a rookie mage?! That's at least the strength and speed of a mid-level warrior!! Is Lady Rina training him to be a warrior and not a mage?!' Ashia is starting to have second thoughts about her previous guess!

"Hehe, master, are you finally a warrior instead of a mage?"

"Here is the answer to your question!!" He threw one of his daggers at Ashia who managed to avoid it easily. But this action was only a decoy! Now that he had his hand free, a flaming chain came straight at Ashia at top speed as if to tie her up!

At that time, only a few centimeters separated him from Ashia. 'My attack will hit its target!!'

Unfortunately for him, the reaction speed of a holy magus is not something he could predict!!

Ashia disappeared instantly in front of him and she reappeared to the other end of their arena.

'He can already cast a magic a Fire-type with such mastery?! And without incantation on top of all that?!! It really is more than impressive!' She didn't know that the surprise effect hadn't started yet!!

Alvine hadn't let herself be impressed by Ashia's speed!

A crimson-colored dagger in his right hand was pointed at Ashia, and he cast 4 level 1 fire spells (fireball) in succession with his left hand!

"Boom!!"

An ethereal barrier has appeared in front of Ashia! She could easily dodge these kinds of attacks without too much trouble, but because of her daze, she had no choice but to resort to a protective barrier!

"Ashia, you know very well that a rookie mage won't be able to damage a barrier thrown by a holy mage! So what's the point of erecting that barrier?!"

"Ahahaha, I just reacted on instinct. Iyaah, I didn't know you could cast elemental spells with such ease!"

How ironic, a holy class mage hiding behind a barrier against a newbie mage!

"It's part of the risk of fighting. Who told you to underestimate me?!" Alvine had a smirk on his face! 'You haven't seen anything yet!' Did he think

"It's okay, let's get back to the duel. This time, I won't give you a rookie chance!" Ashia looked awkward when she heard Alvine's provocation. She knows better than anyone the value of a fight.

But still, how is a holy mage supposed to take seriously a newbie mage who isn't even able to cast spells in general?! But his master is definitely a special case!!

By the time the barrier was gone, "Master, let's make a deal. If in the next ten minutes you manage to hit me with one of your attacks, you will win the game, otherwise, you will lose the game!" Just by seeing her smile, Alvine knew her idea of a deal wasn't as simple as it looked.

But still, he had the confidence to hit him with one of his attacks. Even if he wasn't able to cause any damage to her. "Hm, if you want to play it like that, I'm in. But on the condition that you no longer use your barrier and no laws either!"

"Very well, anyway I wasn't planning to use a shield anymore and I won't attack you directly either!" Her smile widened as she heard Alvine's response.

"Okay, I can't hope for better. So what's at stake in the deal?" Alvine in turn asks for it.

"Hehe, it's simple, once the time is up you have to accept a request from me!" Her red eyes shone with a strange light.

"Okay as long as it's within my means. But what if I win the game?" he asked.

"Fufufu, because you think you can win against me who is of holy rank?!" She had a smirk on her honeyed pink lips that were in perfect harmony with her evil nature!!

Unlike Nicco who constantly teased Alvine as his favorite pastime, Ashia's favorite pastime... IT'S THE BATTLE!

Alvine shrugged lazily. "Sigh, until the duel is over, nothing is decided yet!!"

"Very well you can also ask me anything indefinitely!!"

"It doesn't benefit me. Anyway if I ask you something you're not going to refuse me, are you?!" Alvine asks with a bit of confusion.

"Ugh! You... you're right. But then, what does it take to make our deal..."

The two fell into deep thought.

After a moment, Ashia dropped her fist into her hand. "Ah, I know! If you win the duel, you will give me a seal of slavery!!" She had said this sentence as if nothing had happened!

"You really don't lack the nerve to have dared to put so much into play!!" Alvine was more surprised beyond all reason!

'This girl has really twisted thoughts!!'

"Ahaha you're talking to me like you're going to be the winner? It's just a way to seal our deal, the higher the stakes, the more motivated the opponent will be! There's nothing wrong."

"Very well you would have looked for it!! DEAL!!"

"DEAL!!"
