The days passed exceptionally quickly for Ricky, after all, the people of Tallinn belonged to them.

He has never hidden his mind these days, and has been following Momoya all the time, and he will go wherever she goes.

After all, they are legendary assassins, and the two of them play ambiguous ways differently, the others are drinking under the moon with rose wine, they are secretly fighting in concealed assassinations, and occasionally bursting into a cluster of sparks in the air, most of which are the result of weapon collisions.

Momoya was curious about why she had been able to endure this guy for so long, and not only that, but as time went on, she had a feeling of familiarity that grew......

It's a weird feeling.

It seems that all this played out a long time ago, when there was someone who fought with her all day long, and even fought together, but at that time she was often the winner.

"He seems to have improved a lot."

The girl muttered, and then suddenly realized that when she said this, it was so natural.

"Do I really know him?"

The two good-looking eyebrows were about to wrinkle together, and Momoya finally gave up thinking. She wasn't going to think about it, and it didn't seem bad like that.

……

Today's wind is unusually noisy, as if to signal what is to come.

The Starlight Arena north of Ignos, in the ancient Klaman style, gives Suria a familiar feel.

For her, it was as if she had returned to the day of the Wind Firmament Trial, the first of her to emerge from the trial, and beneath the barrier were the unconscious crowd.

It's just that today is a little different, the main characters become Grace and Uno, and everyone else is sitting in the audience next to them watching.

Sulia was surprised by why the audience didn't seem nervous at all, and they were all very happy to eat with buckets.

The "bucket" is Uno's masterpiece, something he borrowed from Mangaza's kitchen to make with Nomi, and it was widely acclaimed upon its release.

The first "bucket" contains a steak of fried until golden brown, with kiwi fruit and fried potatoes, sprinkled with black pepper, and garnished with dill and basil leaves on the side.

The second is corn roasted until cooked and unburnt, broken down and mixed with a creamy smoothie, topped with cherries and strawberry chunks, and the temptation of sweets has conquered everyone's stomach.

There is also a third pot he designed specifically for hot pot lovers, if Mu Yan was present, he would have been shocked and shouted its name - "skewers".

Uno is a self-taught genius in this regard.

……

"Don't be nervous, these two hardly know how to win anyway, so it's time to gain experience." Ricky said. The people of Tallinn eat with grease stains all over their mouths, and they can't speak well.

Surya gave him a blank look and waited patiently for the trial to come.

"Isn't Mr. Mangaza here?" Glazer asked.

It's only his painting style that is different from others, as hard as him, and yesterday's "homework" was not handed over to the teacher for review.

Surya looked around and saw that he was not there.

Shans opened the barrier, leaving Uno and Grace standing in the middle of the barrier.

The difference is that the two of them did not close their eyes, and there was no illusion around them, everything was quiet as if the system was malfunctioning.

"Sure enough, without Ignos's heart, there would be no illusion."

Shans scratched his smooth skull, aware of the problem. Fortunately, he had already got the answer yesterday when he consulted the assistant AI Nicole.

With a snap of his fingers, a dark shadow hidden in the cloak appeared.

"The so-called courage is the courage to face an invincible enemy!" Shans shouted, and Shadow took off his cloak as well.

"Mr. Mangaza?"

Both exclaimed at the same time, and the people in the stands were stunned.

The old mage shrugged helplessly, "I'm sorry, I don't want to do that either, as the number 000 tester and Shans' deputy, Nicole said that I have to take on the responsibility of temporarily taking on the responsibility when the system fails. ”

"But...... Do we really have a chance of winning? ”

Grace muttered that Surya had taught her a long lesson about ideals, beliefs, discerning the truth and falsehood of illusions, etc., but no one had told her that she had come here to face Mangaza......

Uno still looked the same, after all, even his own uncle didn't know what this thing was afraid of.

As for making him succumb to power? Forget it, he is the one who will summon up the courage to let the other party pay him a pot in the face of Hablon.

……

In the stands, Eric frowned, muttering a familiar phrase over and over again.

Don't give up the courage to challenge everything because of the cowardice in your heart.

This is engraved on the golden apple, and it seems to be particularly applicable here.

Maybe summoning the courage to take on a challenge is a victory? The writer began to speculate again.

……

"So ladies come first." Mangaza said, he didn't rush, his hands clasped in his sleeves.

"It's up to you to decide what you're going to challenge, and you're free to choose what you're good at."

"Really? Miscellaneous...... Anything goes? ”

"You can't have a baby." Mangaza smiled.

Grace was amused by him, too, but she seemed to see a glimmer of hope that she might be able to ...... if not exactly the fight

"Turing Court Dance, Mr. Mangaza."

As the jewel of the Jones Chamber of Commerce, Grace is extraordinarily confident in her dancing, and she doesn't believe she'll lose to anyone on it.

"As you wish, ma'am."

Mangaza bowed slightly, and answered crisply, and the moment he got up, the entire arena was covered in darkness, and the area where the three of them were standing became the scene of an open-air ball.

Band members huddle in corners, orchestral music plays, guests sway to the rhythm and drums, and waiters with plates shuttle back and forth.

The crowd in the stands also breathed a sigh of relief, as if the victory had been laid.

"Ladies come first." Mangaza said.

Grace took a half-step back with her left foot, pointed her toes to the ground, and bowed slightly with her left and right hands on the hem of her skirt.

Turing court dances are divided into single and double dances, but Grace is extremely good at either one, and she and Lady Zha even won the title of Queen of the Ball and King of the Ball that night at the court ball one year. Out of shy prey to the "king", the latter title is usually not mentioned, and people tend to refer to the prom queen and her partner.

As Grace danced, the magic spotlight fell on her, and the surrounding guests stopped moving, their eyes focused on her alone, as if the dance had a great suction force to attract everyone's attention.

Grace stretches her body, like an elegant swan, sometimes spreading her wings and sometimes bending her neck, dancing gracefully, even people like Uno who can't understand anything think it looks good.

At the end of the dance, the surrounding guests gave thunderous applause, even Mangaza was no exception.

Grace's head was dripping with sweat and her face was flushed, and she struggled a little, but she still took a deep breath and thanked her gracefully.

"Great, Miss Grace." Mangaza said, "Then it's my turn." ”

Grace smiled politely, but she was a little small in her heart. This solo dance is almost exclusively designed for women, and many of the movements are dedicated to showing the softness of the female body, and even if Mangaza can fully imitate her movements, it will not look good because of the form. In her opinion, this time she almost won.

However, she seems to have forgotten that Mangaza is also a scholar......

"The Turing court dance was born out of the court dance of the Morning Star, and the royal family of the latter was the descendants of the city-state of Frogia. Unfortunately, in ancient times, when humans first established the primitive city-state, the lord of Froga was my apprentice. Mangaza sighed: "I have to say that although time treats all things equally, it can't change art, so many years later, I can still see the shadow of the year from your dancing......

Grace's smile froze on her face, and she suddenly felt a rush of panic.

He won't really ...... You're also "good at this", right?
