A Banished Failure Survives in the Borderland and Becomes an S-Rank Exorcist

Are you ready, Yulia?

"Yes, I don't mind. The rule is edging, right?

"Hmm. The judgment is upon us. Let's do it as much as we can."

Having said that we were going to play the game, we came to a place called the outside practice area. It seems that the Augustas are practicing here. And when I looked around, I saw a ring of wild horses. Everyone is looking at us with pleasure. It seems true that it leads to martial arts.

"Long, don't lose to humans ~!

"Good luck, Chief!

"Fight the humans, too!"

Such wildlings fly in, and the words of the beginning are told from the mouth of the referee Augustus.

"Now, get started!!

At that moment, I heard a pounding kick on the ground. Right in front of me. Edgar's sharp blade is targeting me. Does it feel like I'm going to slash you from your shoulders? Yes, if I calmly analyze it, I'll take a backstep and attack it for now.

A highly skilled and fairly fast attack. Probably one of the top demon tribes in the dusk. But I can follow you. My eyes definitely captured the movement of the other person, and my brain was able to predict the next attack from that movement.

This year. Without this skill, I would have been dead. Be familiar with the current situation and what should you do next? That simple thought was the most important in this twilight. An inch away is the world of death. He that doeth it shall live, and he that doth not shall die.

And I'm still alive. He has been alive for a year at dusk, when it is impossible for mankind to survive. But I'm not proud anymore. No, you won't be proud in the future. I am smaller than this twilight. [M] There are many stronger people in the world. And to bring the world back to mankind... to the glorious light, I'm going to be stronger.

"... don't do it, Yulia."

"You're an incredible technician. So this one too....."

I take the knife out of my homemade onboro coat. [M]

"What do you got, a knife? Is that all right? The reach difference is overwhelming.

"Don't worry. Please, come."

"Fu...."

Niyari and Edgar laughed and approached again. However, unlike before, the sword was fired within the critical reach of the sword. This man takes any opponent seriously. Even if I knew that, I realized I was a really good person. At the same time, I can't let go. Cut everything out... and reward this man in the form of a victory.

"Nh...!?

The voice belonged to Edgar.

Yes, I was holding Edgar's sword. However, physically speaking, the knife is not within reach. As usual, I activated the invisible sword Invisible Blade and stretched it to the same length as Edgar's sword. Perhaps we can do more than this, but I don't have the skill yet. That's why we have to fight.

"A transparent... sword. What a face demon. I've never seen such magic before... but it's interesting. Besides, inertia control is amazing... after all, the Twilight One is interesting. It's really interesting."

Edgar stepped back and smiled at the enemy again. At this moment, I didn't miss a moment of his carelessness and immediately used inertial control to launch the next attack without losing my hair. That said, Edgar not only immediately grasped the length of my sword, but also predicted the next attack from the return of my wrist and the carriage of my entire body. Continuous attacks by inertial control were just empty.

"... you're strong."

"That's the same for you... now, let's have some fun!

Then 30 minutes. The time of the sword seemed immortal. Everything in each other's hands is exposed. Edgar didn't use any magic in particular, but he confronted me with the skill of his sword. On the other hand, I was fighting each other completely with magical body strengthening and an invisible sword, Invisible Blade.

My knife dances in the air when you lose focus. [M] That's right, the Demons have better physical specs than humans. There was no difference in skill, there was a difference in pure health. But... this was also in the calculation. The moment of alarm is when you think that you have won. I've tasted it to the point where I hate it. And Edgar's cool eyes also seemed slightly colored. That is a colour that is confident of victory and careless.

"Uh-oh!!!!!!"

Edgar waves his sword as he squeezes his last strength. I have no way of preventing it now, defenseless. But there was no need to prevent it. We just have to hit him before he does.

And at the next moment, a call for victory by the umpire is made.

"Winner, Yulia."

There was a slight blood flow from Mr. Edgar's neck. And his sword is still shaking. Yes, the umpire decided that one of my attacks would hit first and could result in fatal wounds. As a matter of fact, I could have killed him with this attack... but I'm sure Edgar knows that.

"Lord Julia"

"Yes"

"I was impressed. Twilight is special... and I want to say it, but it's something you've piled up alone in this harsh world of twilight more than anyone else. Honestly praise and respect."

"... thank you."

I almost cried a little. I've never been praised like this before. Acknowledge the opponent's power purely. Then he shook hands and lowered his head to such a child. I don't usually have personality.

"But Edgar didn't mean it, did he?

"That's the same for you. No, if I was serious, my neck would have flew first. That move was completely out of my mind. No, no, the world is wide. That's why it's fun....."

Thank you for your help.

That night a magnificent banquet was held. All the Augustas were kind and very kind. It would also be great to have won the battle against the captain. And sleep overnight, the next morning. I was already ready to leave. [M]

A lot of newly received clothes. This time, my onboro coat was repaired as brand new overnight. And then maps and compasses, and books and food and water. I also got armor. That said, it seems to be just a disposable knife, but I got 20 of them. When I put it in a space dedicated to my coat, I dropped my head.

"Thank you very much."

"Julia, come back!

"You were strong, Yulia! See you soon!"

"Yulia, that was great!

"Ha-ha, thank you."

Everyone speaks up. Finally, Edgar comes forward and asks for a handshake.

"Lord Julia. I'm sure we can get back to the border city. With your strength. We'll be able to cross the continent again in a year."

"... thank you. From what... really..."

"Good. I thank humans… but only good humans, but you were a personality. We lived forever in this world of dusk, knowing despair, but we reached this point without stopping walking forward. There's nothing you can do about it. Besides, it's been a long time since I fought the Twilight. It's a heartbeat."

"... here too. It was really fun."

"We have a lot of reasons to cooperate fully with humanity. But I'm sure Yulia will cut through a little light. It's a moonlit word, but I want you to do your best."

"... yes"

I was crying. I couldn't stop it this time.

It was so painful. No matter how strong I got, there were more days when I felt like breaking my heart. You're going to die tomorrow. If you fall asleep, you can't wake up anymore. Tied up by such fear, he went forward, he went forward, he looked forward. I didn't give up one day to get back to my hometown. And I met everyone in Augustus, and I realized that I could be rewarded. I'm sure this is just lucky. I know that, but I couldn't help crying.

And I said, pointing my right arm to tears. [M]

"Thank you! I'm sure I'll be back in the City of Boundaries! I won't forget this!

I never looked back. [M]
