Duel ranks, unlike guild ranks, constantly fluctuate depending on the outcome of the duel.

They say the starts are all from the E rank and are calculated at an internal rate that will not be disclosed to players.

Behind our player name is also shown in grey called E.

It's the order of levels, player names, and duel ranks from left.

The duel can also be fought directly on the spot if both sides agree, as before, outside the safe area......

"So you want to compete with me first!? Liquorice!"

Liquorice leans back from her chair in surprise at Yumil's suggestion.

"What!? Mm, I can't! Me, I lose in an instant!

"You wouldn't know if you didn't try! What do you say!?

"Heh, let's use the duel portal normally! Hey!"

It is possible to fight players from all over the continent at any time on the supposedly dueling portal set up by the god of combat Berlum.

What Liquorice is saying is a random match in the same rank using it.

"Lord Yumil, even the dueling event winner is not aware..."

"Ugh, yeah. That was a tag fight, but you're still beating Mr. Alberto... it looks like Mr. String Moon and I were each other in the guild fight"

"Is it? He's just a pig without Mr. Hynd's support, that kind of guy."

"Forget about Yumil, even Liquorice will have difficulty with her in-laws from the first war. Let's be honest here...... Signeria, will you wake up Siesta?

"Yes."

So we went out of our guild home into the city.

The destination is not the temple...... but the newly built little temple.

"Why not because it's not a place of worship we used for the Battle of the Divine Beast? Is there something about the meaning of changing places?

Hands behind your head, loosely walking Tobi mutters about that.

Some of the players in the city are walking in the same direction as us.

I'm sure the destination is the same.

"I can guess, you hear me?

"I'm begging you. It's just the right kind of talk until we get there."

Knox moves his leg small over his shoulder.

Many of the players around me have left the Divine Beast out... but while I was playing TB too, I got kind of restless without this weight.

"Right. Uh, first of all... the portal was installed last time by Animal God Animalia, this time by Battle God Berlum, but I think it's a miso."

"What do you mean?

Liquorice, who should have been talking to Yumil at the beginning, is turning this way and showing interest.

Soon everyone was watching this one as they walked too.

"There's a difference between a permanent establishment and an event, but personally, it's interesting to see the difference in character between the two at the installation location. See, winning and losing..."

"Damn, you can't win at all -!

……

"Why are you chanting over there! Think of your position!

"Shut up! It's because of your stalling monkey!?

Some maliciously grumpy faces coming out of the mini temple for the portal catch my eye.

The players are relatively quiet because they think they won, but if you look at the look on their faces, you can guess how it went.

"... winning and losing can't just be quiet, right? From the locals, I'm talking about how we look like visitors. Around there, only the god of battle and Bellum is more understanding, or considered? Compared to that, animal god is right, he looks like he's finally got a personality."

"That's true. It's not very nice to have these murderous people come out of the chapel."

Liz speaks out in agreement with my words.

I think it's the operation that's deciding where to install it, but this is what happens when you honestly think about it as you immerse yourself in a world view.

Licorice looked at the players around her as she was convinced.

"So you mean quiet, serene in the larger temple!

"Even during the Divine Beast Battle, there were some rough people. It's annoying for locals, and I think relocation is the right thing to do"

"No, you no longer have a portal for the Divine Beast Battle, do you? If there are future events, will the functionality be integrated over here?

"Maybe. Maybe sooner or later the Divine Beast Battle will be permanent?

The duel has an event at the same time as this update, but there was an announcement that the portal would remain intact after the end.

The divine beast battle is frozen at the same time as the last event, and the time to resume is undecided.

And we arrived at the Duel Temple.

In the back, like the Battle of the Divine Beast, a magical formation is set up that emits light.

"Well, Liquorice. Duel participation ranges from one to five, but with which?

"Uh... two on two... no, I'll go one-on-one first!

"Whoa, one hit! Good, go, go, go!

"Ha, I'm coming! Keep an eye on me, Senior Yumil! Gentlemen!"

I'm going armed and onto the portal with Liquorice, and we're going over the magic team to watch the game, too.

It is then moved to a place very similar to the flatland zone used for the Divine Beast Battle.

It's not a command area, it's local, and I've seen it many times but I've never stood on top of it.

An invisible wall separating the dueling from the audience broke out and Liquorice stepped forward nervously.

The opponent is taller than Liquorice, a female player who looks about the same generation as us.

I think it's either a knight, a heavy warrior, or a light warrior from having a sword...... name and level, job icons appeared in sight.

Apparently a light warrior.

"Senior Hynd...... What about Rico's one-on-one, to be honest?

"Is that about the knight's defensive profession? Or are you talking about Liquorice's personal disorientation?

"Both."

Saineria asks me questions as she soars worried.

Next door Siesta yawned loudly as she slept.

Put on a cheek that looks soft with a beak so that Marne can hold it up.

"Oh, there he is!? Honey, if you're looking at it properly, Marne... seniors, what do you think about that place? It bothers me too."

"It's already started, I'll explain it while I watch Liquorice fight."

Liquorice sets up a shield and a short sword to slowly step forward.

The other woman shortswords as well, this one lightly as she steps.

The countdown began and the signal for the start of the battle was sounded.
