Chapter 47: Duel ②
Translated by AmaLynne
Edited by AmaLynne
An official from the Adventurers’ Guild stood between Sam and Dolgana as a witness.
「Then, the Adventurers’ Guild will be present for the duel―――」
The witness was about to announce the start of the duel.
「―――Eat this!」
Even though the signal had not yet been given, Dolgana unleashed this magic as a preemptive strike.
Of course, this was against the rules, a foul.
Sam could not react to this.
He did not think that such a fool would actually commit such an act in a formal duel, which was even witnessed.
At this point, Dolgana had lost by foul play.
However, that was not the point.
The countless spears of water magic that Dolgana had unleashed were about to strike Erika.
「Erica-sama! Please run away!」
「―――!」
Sam decided that he was not going to be able to protect Erica in time, and shouted.
Perhaps in response to his loud voice, Erica, who was stunned, put up a magical barrier as if she were being played.
However,
「GyaaaAAAAAAA!」
Thanks to the magical barrier, the water spear did not pierce Erica, but it could not kill the momentum either, and she is blown backward.
She rolled, bouncing on the ground two or three times.
「Erica-sama!」
Sam rushed over.
「Erica-sama, are you all right? Erica-sama!」
「U-Uh.」
He holds Erica in his arms as she moans quietly.
From the looks of it, there is no bloodshed.
She is looking at him, but she seems to be dazed, as if she had hit her head.
「Ha ha ha ha! You let your guard down! You are now my slaves!」
「Dolgana-sama! This is foul play! As a witness of the guild, I cannot allow you to win!」
The Adventurers’ Guild witness protests against Dolgana, who is so proud of his victory, but he brashly says he doesn’t know.
「Shut up! A mere guild official tell me what I should do! You want to get killed!」
「Do you think you are the one who can get away with this outrage?」
As expected, the Adventurers’ Guild did not approve of Dolgana’s barbaric behavior.
However, Dolgana paid no attention to the guild.
「So, you didn’t intend to duel after all, did you?」
「Of course! Why should I, a nobleman, fight on equal terms with commoners like you!」
.
「Okay, that’s enough.」
「What are you talking about? Now give me the girl! Let’s get on with the pretty! Hey, collect that woman!」
「Ha!」
「Yes!」
At Dolgana’s command, the followers approach.
They would no doubt treat Eri1ca as a slave after they got their hands on her.
―――This was not acceptable.
Sam hugged Erica protectively and held up his arms to Dolgana, who was coming toward us after the followers in high spirits.
He then turned to the three of them and turned his palm toward them.
「What is that attitude of yours?」
「―――How dare you hurt Ur’s sister… Ur’s precious family?」
Sam felt like he was going to lose his head in anger.
He desperately resisted the urge to go berserk at any moment and scolded himself to remain calm.
On top of that, his heart screamed at him to punish those who made fun of his precious master’s family.
「I don’t think so, but you think a squire is going to fight me? All right. Then come at me! I will skewer you with my brilliant magic!」
「Ridiculous. A kid who can’t even tell what his opponent is capable of, who can only use magic, is going to enslave Ur’s precious family? Skewer me? ―――Don’t make me laugh.」
Sam clenches his palm, which was pointed at the three of them, with great force.
「―――Golem, restrain them. I don’t care if you crush them.」
A moment later, a huge arm sprouted from the ground.
「AaaahhHHHH! What the hell, what the hell, what the hell is this aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarm?」
The giant arm snarled, moved, clutched, and restrained the screaming Dolgana and his two stunned followers.
