Ray and Zeros. The actions taken by each other with the start of the duel were together in the sense of packing an intermission with the other.
But...... nevertheless, Ray and Zeros hit each other's weapons on a side considerably closer to Zeros than in the middle.
That means Ray's speed is well above that of Zeros.
Also, speed isn't the only thing that's surpassed.
"Grr!"
The moment Death Size and Halvard bumped into each other, it was only a moment before Zeros was carried away.
In the next moment when the weapons hit each other, Halvard was heavily played.
It's obvious from the look on Zeros's face when he was hit with a weapon that Zeros didn't do it to flush Death Size moves...
Incredible, he said. Zeros with a look like he doesn't understand what just happened.
Still, the next moment I changed my expression from stunned to joyful because some personalities would prefer to fight in person, and most importantly because I understood that the rumors flowing about Ray were never exaggerated, but facts.
"Heavy, strong, fast! Wow, you!
With an admirable voice against Ray, Zeros puts a loudly played Halvard back on hand.
Death size weighs far heavier than it looks, about 100kg.
With all that weight of weaponry, Ray wields heavily using his special Death Size ability not to make him feel weighted for what he has.
Due to Ningro Ray's own outwardly stained muscle strength, Zeros, who was not blown away by just being played a Halvard after hitting it with a wielded Death Size blow, can be said to have the strength Rank B Adventurer deserves.
Strong faces are colored with laughter until they are innocent.
Ray, who was given a compliment, also whines as he was impressed while putting Death Size back on hand.
"I didn't expect you to meet with Death Size and not let go of your weapon. I'll do it inside."
It has become clearer than ever that each other praises each other, but still which is more advantageous in the present integration.
Speed and force, that Ray outweighs Zeros in both.
Seeing it, the uninteresting keepsake screams as far as its power.
"Zeros, fight hard! What do you think I hired you for?
I guess I heard the keepsake. Zeros' expression changes from a flash of joy to a frowning one.
Naturally, Zeros does not exist in any way like loyalty or benevolence to the Keepsake.
I was also hired this time because it's not about being intoxicated by the keepsake, it's about being able to fight the existence of Ray purely.
I've only heard rumors for a long time, because I wanted to experience the power of Ray with the alias Deep Red on his own, and he was hired by someone who didn't care like a keepsake.
Even so, if they keep listening to Keepsake's bullshit and accumulate depression, and if they give a wild mouth where they're finally getting rid of it by fighting Ray, there's no way they can put up with someone like Zeros.
"Shut up, you bastard! You're not going to fight for yourself, you're going to fight for people!
"Hih!... hey, you! Who are you going to be talking to!
It was a keepsake that gave a frightened look to the fury out of Zeros's mouth for a moment, but he yells back as if he decides he didn't have it right away.
There were disturbances before the duel began, and already the inhabitants of the Guild… on the contrary, even the aristocracy around them - including the royalist nobility - intersect their gaze at the keepsake of ridicule, dismay, anger and so on.
Being respected by others, I couldn't bear to be directed such a gaze only at the keepsake I assumed so.
Turning around, I just tried to yell at something again...
"Lord Keep, come on! If you're going to stand in the way of this duel any longer, we'll consider it a waiver of your game!
If Dusker tells you that, you can't scream any more.
Lost in this duel... and since it is not hard to imagine what will happen to me if the property of Count Eriel's house passes according to the contract.
I have my wife's hands ready for once, but it's definitely dangerous to use them.
The best part is that Zeros beat Ray.
That way, everything will work out... and as a keepsake you assume so, you can't be considered a game waiver here.
Without even trying to hide his disgruntled expression, the still unacceptable silent keepsake turns his gaze toward Ray and Zeros, who can even feel hatred.
... but let it be Ray, let it be Zeros, and the gaze of such a keepsake was facing each other's weapons with no regard at all.
"Well, I don't know. The battle was interrupted by tea... shall we continue?"
"... what did you get such a nasty job? If you just want to fight me, that's what you should have hoped for by visiting me normally and mocking me."
Ray asks while setting the death size if he doesn't understand the idea of Zeros.
Zeros, having heard the word, returns the word by making sure to look for a slight gap in the attack while standing Halvard, just like Ray.
"What I want is not a mock fight. I can't even lose my own life, it's a serious battle. I thought this was the best way to do it."
Zeros manages to indulge in the desire to attack the gap Ray has revealed.
I could understand that if I attacked that gap, I would undoubtedly eat the counter and take a deadly blow myself.
... but still no other gaps at all, that's what it takes a lot of patience to indulge in the urge to attack there when you find the obvious gaps in Ray that are likely to be handled lightly wherever you attack.
"Even if it wasn't a duel, if you really wanted me to compete, I could have gotten enough of that... Yikes!
With that word, Ray out front at once.
Stuffing straight in with Zeros, he returns his wrist and sticks a death-sized stone poke out like a spear.
The speed of movement combined with the speed at which Ray protruded his own spear, and when Zeros noticed, the stone poke was already just before it hit his body.
It was Ray's blow at the torso, not the head, so that Zeros would not be fatally injured, but it is also the hardest part of the body to evade, on the contrary.
It was already too late to play with Halvard back on hand and all Zeros could do was twist his torso and manage to dodge a stone-piercing blow.
Gally, the sound echoes around.
The metal armor that was covering the torso of Zeros and the metal sound of a death-size stone poke rubbing off.
"Guuuuu!
Though the Stone Poke attack itself was not heavily damaged and successfully avoided, Ray's attack is huge and small and does damage if not completely avoided given the weight of the Death Size.
Even now, the Death Size Stone Penetration had not only been plundered into metal armor, but Zeros had been heavily blown because of its weight.
"Come on, it hurts! Damn, I'm not kidding. Is this really the same Rank B as me!? Is this all you have an alias for?
Zeros whining while being blown away and still regaining his posture before falling completely.
Reaching to the left flank of the stone-piercing, it was understood that the metal armor was heavily snagged.
If you hit this properly...... and think about it, it's not fear that has struck Zeros' body...... but joy.
I didn't really think I was the strongest Zeros, but still a strong opponent from now on... I wondered if that was the person I could describe as a monster.
He said he was standing in front of such a monster.
"Ha... Ha, ha, ha!
Zeros laughter echoing around.
With such a laugh, some of the audience feel something creepy.
But Ray, whose laughter was pointed at him, looked to Zeros with no movement at all.
Similar... No, because I've heard more intense exasperating laughter than this.
Compared to noise, this degree of temper is as cool as a breeze.
With such a laugh, Ray turns his gaze around.
In the meantime, I notice Basrello staring anxiously at me, deciding to end this duel and opening his mouth.
"Well, you seem satisfied... and it's time to end this duel?
"Ha, not yet... I'm still not satisfied!
Impact enough to snap metal armor leaves blunt pain on the flank of Zeros.
Still, Zeros is not happy with the battle yet, he cries out in frustration.
Having seen such a zero, Ray bears the death size to his shoulder.
"Ah?"
What are you doing? Zeros words whining with that meaning.
That would be natural, too. He said he was still going to fight, but for some reason, Ray was on his shoulder instead of setting up a death size.
Even in that situation, of course, an attack would be possible. If you're an overwhelming power man like Ray, you're powerful enough to unleash a velocity-ridden blow from your shoulder.
But... Still, something appeared unusual in Zeros' eyes.
It was the same for those in the audience with more than a certain amount of skill.
Adventurers, knights, soldiers, mercenaries… such people are uncomfortable with Ray's manners when he tells them to end the fight.
"Do it! I'm alarmed that I'm in your favor! Punch that gap!
In the meantime, the voice of the keepsake echoes around, but few agree with that voice.
So...... again Ray opens his mouth as he pulls out the ring that was nestled in his finger.
"Open your eyes and never let go. If you imitate that... your consciousness will soon disappear"
Do what?
The moment Zeros tried to return that to Ray's words, it happened.
Boom.
I didn't hear a sound. But I definitely felt like that sounded zero... and audiences around me.
And if you notice, Ray is wrapped in something red.
Several people with the ability to sense the magic that was on this scene slip their hips and buttocks to the ground.
It covered Ray's body because he understood that the magic was concentrated enough to visualize it.
"Become, what... you, what have you done!?
Zeros screams at the force he feels from Ray standing in front of him.
It might have been natural if you were a Rank B adventurer not to lose your hips or anything, but you were still under complete barometric pressure.
(Heh...... you have Ray using Flaming Emperor's red armor in front of you and still can afford to just move your mouth)
Johanna was staring at Zeros like that with a surprising gaze.
During the civil unrest in the Bestian Empire, we stood in front of a ray in that state so much that we didn't want to.
Although, at that time, I had not sublimated to the red armor of the Flaming Emperor, and it was the armor of the King.
Because of that experience, Johanna can still afford to think even when she looks at Ray unfolding the Red Armor of the Flaming Emperor.
... Most of all, I've been watching Seto since the duel began, and only Lent nearby knows that Ray finally turned his gaze on you after activating the Red Armor of the Flaming Emperor.
"That... that, what the hell..."
Lent, who was going around the festival with Johanna, hits the other audience behind him in an attempt to retreat, stops moving and squeals.
It was only a short time before Lent acted with Ray, and that period was short.
This was the first time I had come into contact with Ray about the Gamelion hunt, and I had heard rumors about Ray but had never seen his prowess so clearly so far.
No, I saw a gamelion in the gamelion hunt that had strong resistance to slaughter, but what is now spreading in front of me was an overwhelming sight to the extent that it was silly to compare it to that.
"It's a more powerful skill than the King's armor, but all of a sudden I can't help but see it..."
Johanna whining as if she could afford it, but even for that Johanna has seen the Red Armor of the Flaming Emperor a few times, so... and most importantly, it is only being held up thanks to the constant watching of the King's armor.
If I had seen the Red Armor of the Flaming Emperor with its eyes for the first time, I would not have been confident not to lose my hips.
Many of the audiences around us have hardly spoken before the force most of them receive from Ray.
In the meantime, Dusker, near Ray as the referee of the duel, still had some leeway in front of Ray, who deployed the Red Armor of the Flaming Emperor.
Sometimes I trust Ray, and I think there's no reason Ray would use skills that would erupt and cause damage to his surroundings.
While keeping Ray and Zeros moving unmissable, he sniffed a strange odor and turned his gaze toward that strange odor, where there was a keepsake slipping out of his hips and even leaking and wetting the ground.
(You finally understand for real what kind of person you sold the fight to...... you look like)
Leaving room for the pitiful Dusker, Ray's figure had disappeared from the earlier position, just behind Zeros.
Dusker has no idea what's going on with the Death Size stuck to Zeros' neck.
Travel at unnoticed speeds, which can be used when activating the Flaming Emperor's Red Armor.
I did that, but almost everyone who saw its speed of travel could have said no.
Barely enough that a Rank A Adventurer could have followed the move with his eyes?
"Well, what do we do?
To Ray's words, Zeros sees a death-sized giant blade poked around his neck, exhaling in a small sigh and opening his mouth.
"Surrender."
As soon as word came out of Zeros's mouth acknowledging his defeat, Dusker shouted back at me.
"There's a battle! This duel, shall be a victory for the Baron Sisne family side!
