Chapter 106: Duel

"Brave warrior, the spirit of knighthood will protect you. The sound was as soft as refined honey diluted with water resounded in the barracks, and the warriors who heard such a heavenly sound and saw the beautiful faces that did not look like mortals were already in a daze, and shouted loudly one by one. Medusa's charm is indeed endless, and it is easy for these soldiers of the Guards to reach a point of emotional euphoria. The holy countenance, the graceful voice, the gentle manners, the noble status, the courage to be in the line of fire - although the probability of war is now less than one in a thousand - all this made Medusa the most attractive to the warriors and the defenders of the Iron Fort.

For three consecutive days, Medusa basically walked through the garrison defense lines of various countries, met with middle and lower-level generals and warrior representatives of various countries, and at the same time gave speeches to the soldiers in public. The beauty of the beauties is indeed endless, and this is the last exclamation of Ray them.

As the most junior senior general in the coalition command, Ray was sent to Medusa's side by a few of the old guys who were very irresponsible, and led his guards to become Medusa's personal bodyguards. It is said that this is also Medusa's request to the coalition high command, of course, no one dares to say such a topic to Ray in person.

As the first to dance with Medusa at the banquet that night, and at the same time the last dance, Ray has now become a thorn in the side of many people. Of course, most of those who opened their eyes were young nobles from the five empires of Smart, Dark, Wright, Ritter, and Leyford. Bicester's warriors knew that Ray and Bobcut's relationship was complicated, that they didn't have the guts to become hostile to Ray before Bobcart spoke, and that Medusa's petite body didn't quite fit Bist's aesthetic. And those young aristocratic generals of the Van Empire, even if they have some inexplicable expectations for Medusa in their hearts, they still won't do anything about grabbing things with a humanoid dragon. As long as he saw the tens of thousands of pounds of boulders that Lei carried on his shoulders every day, no general dared to say anything to Lei that might cause him to be unhappy.

And at the award ceremony held before the end of the banquet, Lei actually received the highest reward, Shagru actually gave him half of the province of fiefdom unusually, and at the same time, his marquis title has been added to the title of 'brave battle', which means that Lei is now the 'brave war' marquis with the royal title. Everything, let everyone know that Lei is only one step away from the Duke of the Van Empire, as long as he defeats the criminals this time, then it can be said ironclad that Lei will become a duke, which is also one of the reasons why many generals dare not show any dissatisfaction in front of Lei after estimating their family power. A duke with the real power of a legion commander is definitely not something that ordinary nobles and big noble families can provoke.

As for Andrew, he naturally has a great hostility towards Ray, but he knows what his strength level is, and he doesn't have the guts to say anything to Ray. At the same time, Andrew thinks that he is Medusa's closest bodyguard, and has the advantage of being close to the water and getting the moon first, and psychologically he can ** himself: "I have a lot more chances than that rude gorilla, I don't need to pay attention to that damn beast." ”

Of course, no one will understand what Ray is thinking. For Ray, Medusa is just a big problem, an almost beastly intuition, which makes Ray dislike Medusa very much, very disliked. The beasts of the forest have a wonderful ability to avoid places or creatures that may pose danger to them, and Ray, who grew up in the mountains and forests, and his hard training, also possess such wonderful abilities.

Seeing Medusa walking with difficulty in the trench, greeting the soldiers on the road cordially, constantly asking them about their conditions and requirements, and being able to talk to those soldiers in the dialects of various provinces from time to time, Ray and the guards behind him shook their heads loudly, and their heads almost fell off their necks. Ray muttered in a low voice: "Damn, it looks like this woman is more popular than us, fuck, these kids just haven't touched a woman in months, is it necessary to be so enthusiastic about such a woman who can't even eat in her mouth?"

However, Ray still admired Medusa's ability: "Fuck, how can she speak so many provincial dialects? and know the customs and habits of various places, how does this woman's head do? If it were me, I wouldn't be able to do it." At the very least, the general history of the mainland almost broke my head. Actually, although this woman gives me an extremely bad feeling, I still have the ability, didn't the old guy say that this woman actually has the mana cultivation of the first order of the dragon, and among the magicians, it can be regarded as a good strength, and in the Van Empire, it is a rare magic master. It's just that Sock said that the two maids around her are stronger, is it true?"

Gosia saw Ray frowning at Medusa's back, and couldn't help but come up and whispered: "My lord, what are you thinking? The sword skills that Lord Medusa performed yesterday were really good, I didn't expect that she, such a delicate county lord, actually had high-level sword skills, but her fighting spirit was too weak, otherwise we wouldn't be able to find a few generals who could compete with her with swordsmanship." The sword that Medusa performed shattered three hundred pieces of parchment in the air, and finally nine thousand pieces of fragments fell to the ground, and the gorgeous sword light made everyone who paid attention to practical results stunned. Gosia thought that Ray already had something in mind about Medusa, and now he was here to stir up the conversation.

Lei snorted in a low voice: "What kind of sword skills, what's the use? Children have more things to play with than she does." I can blow anyone to death with just one punch, one punch that so-called gorgeous sword technique. Do you believe it or not?" Gosia stuck out his tongue, realizing that he had slapped the horse's leg at once, and obediently took a few steps back, and winked at Groot. And Li, who was following closely by Lei, suddenly danced with her eyebrows, and she was very happy. Although Ray was only talking about the fact that he could kill Medusa with one punch, it was a completely different effect when he heard it in Leigh's ears. The psychology of little girls is so weird, a sentence that normal people can't associate at all can inexplicably make them happy for several days.

Li smiled, and couldn't help but take a few more steps closer to Ray. She was very grateful to Hart and them, in addition to allocating 10,000 regular Glory Knights to Ray as a supplement to his combat strength, Hart also pushed the boat in the name of Rhine to assign the 40,000 Glory Knights Reserve Masters led by Li from the reserve regiment to Lei's jurisdiction, as the leader of the 40,000 reserves, Li happened to have an excuse similar to Leitao, and in the past few days, he has not left Ray's left and right at all. Externally, she said that it was convenient for her to ask Lei all kinds of questions, of course, what was the reason, except for Lei, almost everyone else understood.

Even Medusa was keenly aware of Leigh's unwarranted hostility towards her. This made Medusa feel an inexplicable excitement and vanity, as far as Medusa herself was concerned, a girl like Li, who was not inferior to herself, but had strong combat power, was her strong opponent. If Li turns a blind eye to Medusa, it will be a powerful blow to Medusa's self-confidence and self-esteem, but now that Li is so nervous, for Medusa, it is just a good time to prove that she is infinitely attractive.

Medusa had an intimate conversation with a soldier from the province of Kaisen, which aroused the envy of countless soldiers behind her, and she kept snickering in her heart: "Hehehehe, you strange woman, are you qualified to compete with me? What is your identity, and what is my identity? It is impossible for Lei to join your Divine City, and can you leave Divine City?。。。 Although practical, although Ray is very ugly and rude, he is very capable, which is not comparable to other aristocratic little white faces, speaking of which, he is an excellent object to be a husband. It's a pity that he's too sluggish. ”

Medusa was not angry to think that when she was in her father's territory, she would color any nobleman a little, and that nobleman would want to die for herself. As for Ray, who had invited him to dance the first and last dance of the ball, was he incomprehensible to such a strong hint? Not knowing that Ray had instinctively become wary of herself, Medusa thought proudly: "Perhaps, I should give him a stronger stimulus, a more obvious expression? However, sometimes watching a good show is also an excellent leisure and adjustment. Would I be willing to come to such a shitty place and talk to these lowly soldiers?"

Mentally cursing those enthusiastic soldiers, and Medusa, who still had a warm smile on her face like a spring breeze, saw that the obsessed Prince Evel was constantly swaying beside her, full of lust, conquest and other bad eyes scanning her body, and her body exuded that kind of manic aura, as if she was about to kill someone immediately to dissipate the momentum of anger, so that Medusa immediately had a plan in her heart.

She sneered in her heart: "This prince of the Darker Empire, his character is not necessarily good, even if his strength is poor, he is still a pervert with no brains." I want to come to the Darkk royal family to send him over, so that someone can sit in the town and get the idea of the relevant allied dynamics, but this Royal Highness, it is really... There's no way I'm going to take advantage of him, and it's such an incompetent waste to follow me around the entire defensive line. ”

In her heart, she softly sarcastically mocked the weak minds of the emperor of the Darker Empire, and Medusa smiled in her heart: "However, waste can always be used, and this prince is more or less of the best quality among waste." Not... It's just that his strength is a little worse, but as long as his anger is strong enough, it's fine. Medusa greatly despises Ewell, who ignores the affairs of the coalition for the sake of personal lust, but for the sake of her own evil interests, she deliberately wants to provoke some disputes, and in fact, she is not much different from Ewell's virtue in terms of level. Of course, Medusa, who has a lot of self-esteem, will never admit that she is a waste of the same level as Ewell.

Although she also felt that if she provoked such a dispute, it was likely to cause some bad influence within the coalition army, but she was controlled by her own bad nature, and once the evil interest of the extremely indifferent nobles surged up, Medusa did not care about any consequences. In short, in her opinion, nothing is a big deal. What is a coalition dispute? Even if the coalition forces are in a civil war, the terrible Medusa, who has no idea about the criminals, will never take this matter to heart.

So, as Medusa continued her walk in the slightly muddy trench, she deliberately twisted her foot and fell towards Ewell. Seeing Medusa's delicate and weak, Ewell's fragrant body fell towards him, and he was so happy that he quickly met it with both hands, and hugged Medusa in his arms. Feeling the warmth and softness of the carcass in his hand, Iwell's heart fluttered, and he said in his most gentle voice: "Your Highness Medusa, you have to be careful, although the snow here has been removed, it is still very slippery. As he spoke, Ewell's hand used a little force unnaturally, as if he wanted to hold Medusa into his body.

Andrew, who was next to him, saw that Ewell wanted to take the opportunity to rub oil, he was already angry, his hand was already on the hilt of the sword, and when he was about to scold, Ewell had already used the brightest smile and the most elegant tone, as if he was a poet: "Your Highness, why don't you let me help you go." Don't worry, I will never let Your Highness encounter such danger again. As long as I am by His Highness's side, His Highness will definitely not have to worry about anything. Eville thought that Yan Fu had fallen from the sky, and his heart had already blossomed. If you can turn this charming county lord into your bed man, your reputation in the Darker Empire will be much higher, and maybe you will be able to be listed as the heir to the throne at that time.

The other generals of the Vatican Empire were surrounded by him, and greeted nervously: "Your Royal Highness, are you okay?" Especially those officers of the Guards were even more nervous, if Medusa's jade foot was sprained a little, it would be their own soldiers who were unable to clean the snow, so it was difficult to say that they could lead to principled issues such as their own ineffective leadership of troops, lack of command ability, lack of courage in combat, and disloyalty to the empire, so the cold sweat on their foreheads came out. The commander of this defense zone even thought with remorse: "Why don't you spread a thick layer of straw on the ground? ”

Thinking of this, those Guards officers who felt that their future was bright couldn't help but resentfully Crete, who was now in charge of the Guards Legion, wasn't it all because he said that he was not allowed to engage in face projects, and that he wanted to show the real battlefield in front of the dignitaries in the imperial capital? Of course, they would never dare to vent their anger on Lei's head, just look at Lei's body that is two heads taller than them, and his arms are almost the thickness of their waists, they don't dare.

Lei muttered in a low voice: "Damn, a person with a golden knight-level sword skill and a bronze high-level knight's fighting spirit would slip and fall here?" Although he didn't understand what Medusa's intentions were, Lei clearly thought of the unreasonable place of things with his profound cultivation in martial arts. Whatever Medusa's reason for deliberately pretentious, Ray's impression of her was even worse.

Li next to her smiled when she heard this, and almost scolded loudly: "That's it, what is this ghost woman doing? When I showed my sword skills yesterday, I didn't see her slipping?" However, Li was shocked in her heart, and asked herself very suspiciously: "Strange, why am I so happy about this gorilla's words?" An inexplicable panic made Li almost have the urge to run away. Thinking of her recent behavior with the orangutan next to her, Leigh almost fainted.

Andrew was about to go crazy, but Medusa didn't give him this chance, she smiled and stood firm, almost a little coldly looked at Prince Evir with a smile on his face, and said helplessly: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness Evir, but I still believe in the warriors of our Van Empire." Moreover, you can't be my knight, but we warriors of the Van Empire can... General Lei, could you please help me through this section? It's really a little too slippery here. ”

The phrase 'my knight' has many meanings in the circle of nobility. This was enough to make Andrew and Ewell's jealousy almost burst, and the officers nearby looked at Ray with strange expressions. In this case, Ray has no way to refuse Medusa, otherwise, it can be regarded as disrespect for Medusa, contempt for Medusa, and then disrespect for the Medusa family, which is also disrespect for the imperial royal family, and so on. Therefore, Ray can only help Medusa through this journey.

Ray rolled his eyes and hesitated, and Lomat behind him twisted the flesh near his spine hard, and whispered, "I can't excuse myself, I have to go." Lomat knew that Medusa had made Ray the target of public criticism for no apparent reason, and although he didn't know why Medusa did this, Lomat didn't want Ray to offend Medusa or be accused of all sorts of innocent crimes. Thankfully, Lomat breathed a sigh of relief: Ray could have refused to be Medusa's personal knight, as long as Ray proposed, he already had a person to protect. Lomat smirked, and thought ill-intentionedly: "I don't know who Klee and Lie are, big brother likes... But Leigh is a tigress, well, I don't tend to her. ”

Hearing Lomat's reminder, Ray immediately thought of the trouble that might be caused by his contempt for the imperial family, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the big scar on his face shook like a live centipede, and he took a step, frowning, as if he was thinking about whether to steal honey or grab corn, and came to Medusa's side with a gust of wind. The strong aura made Ewell and Andrew shudder, and they took a step back uncomfortably.

Medusa stretched out her slender, white, delicate hand, and said with a chuckle, "General Lei, I'm sorry for you. Only you who are so strong and powerful can bring a little sense of security to people on such a cold battlefield. Medusa was satisfied, and Ray's rough, almost ugly face, tall orc-like body, gave her a strange sense of excitement. Even if it wasn't for her father's orders, Medusa had a kind of *** that held Ray in her hands and let herself play with it. Anyway, Ray is the best choice to be a husband, he is loyal, powerful, has status, has power, and his strong physique can naturally satisfy Medusa greatly in some aspects, if you need the sweet words of the little white face, with your own identity, it is not easy to find his lover of one hundred and eighty?

Medusa was making a wishful thinking here, and felt Lei's thick, slightly burning palm gently holding her hand, and couldn't help but smile at the corner of her mouth. Li in the back was so angry that she almost punched out with all her strength, and Medusa's smile made her feel extremely humiliated. But seeing Ray's tightly furrowed brow and reluctant expression, Li's heart suddenly became happy, and she didn't care about Medusa's mannerisms.

Medusa deliberately smiled coquettishly, looked at Lei Jiaosheng and said: "General Lei, really, you make me have that very stable feeling, among so many generals on the front line, only you can bring me this feeling... Well, there is a smell of terrible thunder and lightning that I avoided in my mother's arms on a thunderstorm day when I was a child. Medusa was saying how she felt about Ray, but it was an invisible tease, and even Ray could hear it.

Lomat stood far away at the corner of the ditch behind him, and muttered in a low voice: "What does this woman want to do? Lomat looked carefully to the left and right, and found that all the people had followed Medusa away, and only a group of soldiers stood in the trench and didn't know what they were thinking, so he sighed in reassurance, and followed the team with a frown.

All the way forward, greeting those soldiers, greeting the cold and asking for warmth, and giving souvenirs from the imperial capital, all the things have been handed over to the nobles of those condolence groups, as for Medusa herself, she hugged Lei's arm tightly, laughed coquettishly, and kept asking about Lei. From where Ray was born to the question of what kind of woman Ray likes, Medusa asked it in the most polite and elegant way.

Ray was dry, answering Medusa's questions in a dry, dry voice, and he had no interest in explaining his background to this woman he didn't admire. In the eyes of others, it seems that Lei has been fascinated and has no ability to speak soberly.

Andrew watched Ray and Medusa's 'intimate' conversation, and the fire of jealousy in his heart almost broke through his head. Although his father was only a subordinate marquis of His Royal Highness, Andrew thought that he had become a close attendant of the prince's family since he was a child, and he was 'hard work' for the prince's family, and he was extremely 'close' to Medusa, how could a nouveau riche nouveau riche have the right to snatch 'his own' county lord? A gratuitous flame almost burned Andrew's chest, if it weren't for his own identity, There is indeed a gap between the status and Ray, if it weren't for the fact that his strength is really not Ray's opponent, Andrew would have jumped up to challenge it a long time ago.

Of course, the reason why Andrew didn't challenge Ray was that he had no excuse to challenge Ray. He didn't take any position, he didn't have any reason to challenge Ray. He is the head of the knight of the Prince of the Van Empire, and Ray is the head of the Empire, and there is no grudge between the two, and there is no challenge at all. Using Medusa as an excuse?Andrew wasn't stupid enough to risk Medusa ordering him to be killed. What's more, in terms of identity, he is not qualified to challenge Ray for Medusa.

The lovely Prince Evel next to him was different, his jealousy was even hotter than Andrew's. He thinks that his appearance is a hundred times more handsome than Lei, his net worth is a thousand times more noble than Lei, and his demeanor is ten thousand times more elegant than that of the rude Lei. On the whole, he was the only person on the entire continent who was worthy of this delicate county lord, and what about Lei? Ray was just an ordinary, nouveau riche aristocratic general. What qualifications does he have to compete with himself for the favor of the county lord?

Ewell's eyes shot a vicious gaze, which was the gaze that longed for Lei to be cut into meat sauce in front of him. Ewell kept telling himself in his heart: "This man is really a shame for our nobles. The court dance is not enough, and the etiquette is even more messy, especially the rude talk is blasphemous to Her Royal Highness Medusa. Oh, by the way, he must have used some dishonorable means to control the people around His Highness, and bewitched His Highness's crystal-pure heart. ”

"Look at the people around Your Highness, those incompetent wastes, those damned goods, they are all a bunch of villains who tend to be inflammatory. It must have been this rude barbarian who bribed those villains and said good things about himself in front of the county lord that made the county lord think that this damn barbarian was a big hero. Oh my God, Lord Medusa actually said he could make her feel safe? God, what is the reasoning behind this? This damn guy shouldn't be on this continent at all. ”

Ewell thought of a lot of things, he thought that if he was favored by Medusa, if he became Medusa's husband, then he would also be in a relationship with the royal family of the Van Empire. His momentum in the Darker Empire will soon become very large, and at the same time, he can get a group of powerful knights from Medusa's family, as the whole continent knows, the knights of the Van Empire are the most powerful on the continent, then, his father's status in the empire will be improved, and it will not be a luxury for him to become the heir to the throne.

Eville thought excitedly: "On the mainland, there are not a few people who have obtained the power of their own country because of their marriage with the princess and county lord of another empire, and in history, there have been many times when the alliance between the two countries has not been torn apart, and this kind of thing has happened a lot... This time, all seven nations are united, as long as I can ... Ewell greedily glanced at Medusa's twisted waist and continued to think, "Then, I can get the support of the Van Empire, then, it's wonderful." ”

Ray's thick voice came, and Ewell's face distorted at once: "But, but this barbarian, this uncivilized gorilla, what spell did he use to attract my goddess? I must kill him, remove this obstacle, and everything that hinders me must disappear from this continent. ”

Watching Medusa twist lightly on Ray's arm affectionately, this subtle movement was not noticed by most people, but it fell into the eyes of Andrew, Ewell, Leigh and Lomat. Andrew dared not speak in anger, Li understood Ray's dislike for Medusa and didn't care at all, and Lomat carefully observed Medusa's every move, his eyes were as clear as ice cubes, and none of the three of them reacted. But Eville is different, Eville, who saw this scene, is already on the verge of drawing his sword.

Medusa turned her head and asked with a smile at Eville, "Your Royal Highness, did you say that the snow scene here is really beautiful." ”

Ewell's head seemed to have been struck by a thunderbolt, and he was like a hypnotized necromancer, and he couldn't figure out what he was doing. "It turns out that His Royal Highness the county lord still has a deep affection for me, and she is asking for my opinion... If it weren't for that abominable beast. ”

Ewell strode over and struck Ray the back. Lei looked back in surprise, looking at Eville, who was full of enthusiasm and had fallen into a hysterical state. As soon as Ray was about to ask, Ewell had already taken off the white silk glove on his left hand, jumped up and slammed it on Ray's face. Blocking hundreds of nearby Guardsmen, hundreds of generals from various countries and nobles of the Van Empire, Eville used the most serious means on the continent to launch a one-man challenge to Ray.

Everyone was stunned, and for a moment no one knew what to do. Medusa looked at Ewell's out-of-character behavior with a smile on her face. Before the generals around Evir could stop him, Eville had successfully completed the challenge ritual that symbolized a life-and-death duel. He threw his gloves heavily at Ray's feet, looked at Ray's face haughtily, and then spat heavily on Ray's boots, and after drawing his own sword, Ewell threw his sword and stuck it in front of Ray's toes. An extremely arrogant voice rang out: "If you are a man, fight me in a duel." ”

The consequences of a challenge of this magnitude are only less severe than a letter of war from the head of one large family to the head of another family duel. The result of the family duel is that all members of the defeated noble family will be slaughtered and outsiders have no right to interfere. As for Ewell's challenge, it symbolizes that the two have reached the point of immortality, and one of them must fall and sleep forever. If someone avoids such a challenge, then everything he has, including his noble title, all his official positions, his territory, and his property, will be deposed and deprived by the noble elders' house of that country, and even the country that reacts violently will completely expel the person who has avoided the challenge.

Lei, who had been ravaged by more than a dozen etiquette teachers in turn, naturally knew what such a challenge meant. Lei frowned, and said in a deep voice: "His Royal Highness Prince Evel, are you serious? There are thousands of people at the scene, and there are hundreds of soldiers of the Darker Empire, among which there is no shortage of nobles with status and status, and they will give us a witness. ”

Medusa whispered, "God, Your Highness Ever, why are you making such a challenge? ”

As a person who has been insulted, if Ray avoids the challenge, he will be punished even more severely, and everything he has, his honor, will be completely lost because he has avoided this challenge. However, Ray knew very well in his heart that if he really killed Eville, it would definitely cause diplomatic interference from the Darker Empire, and no matter what the cause of the matter was, he would end up under a lot of pressure. If he only defeats Ewell, then as a challenger, Eville will have to commit suicide, which is no different from killing him...

Lightly *** glanced at the left side of his face that was a little itchy, Lei looked at Evir, whose face was distorted, his face was pale, and his eyes were bulging, and he said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, you must have been hurt by the evil magic of the sinners, come on, send His Highness Evir back to the 'Iron Castle', and ask the generals of the Bright Swordsman Regiment to use the 'Demon Breaking Holy Light' to expel those evil magic." ”

The people around couldn't help but nod, this was Ray's best choice, and easily found an excuse to blame the damn necromancers for Ewell's aberration, so that everyone could go down the stairs. If Ewell wasn't an idiot, he should have taken this opportunity to pretend to be unconscious and fall down quickly, so that everyone's face would be saved, and no one would be held accountable for the matter. Even several lieutenants of the Darker Empire have begun to think about how to use money to compensate for the insult Lei has received. They are fully aware that if this matter is spread out, it will become a big joke for the Darker Empire, a prince who only has the strength of the second order of gold, because he is jealous of the wind and provokes an ally general with great combat power, this will make the entire Darker Empire unable to raise its head.

Look at the ill-intentioned eyes of the generals of the Smart Empire and other countries who came with the team, these generals of the Dak Empire wish that Evir would take the opportunity to faint as soon as possible, this prince who was not stupid in the past should know how to deal with this serious incident. With Ray's identity and Shagru's favor in him, as well as Ray's own visible and invisible power in the Van Empire, the likely consequence of this incident is that after the end of the war against the criminals, the Dak Empire will directly become the target of the Van Empire.

Looking at the terrifying combat power of the Vantary Empire after the secret expansion of the army, no one wants to face such an enemy.

Eville made a move that almost made the generals of the Darkk Empire faint, he took off the glove of his right hand, jumped up and whipped Thunder's face. The crisp sound made the soldiers near and far hear it clearly, and the generals of the Dak Empire could even feel the fierce eyes in the eyes of the soldiers of the Van Empire.

Ewell smiled and said, "Come on, Ray, are you a man, or, are you a woman pretending?" Looking at Medusa's smiling and encouraging look next to her, Ewell exclaimed proudly, "Or, are you scared by me and scared you from a man to a woman?"

Ray's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and Medusa said just right: "Oh my God, Your Highness Ewell, you really want to... Ray, you're what I value ... Medusa closed her mouth, she did a good job of pointing out Ewell's wrongness and her own liking for Ray, she was confident that as long as Ray was not an idiot, he should understand his mind. Although such a intention was false, Medusa was confident that if such an expression was addressed to any other general, it would be enough to envelop him in the palm of her hand.

Karub and other Ray's cronies and generals walked up with extremely ugly faces, and they looked at Ewell's eyes as if they were bed bugs that didn't know whether they were alive or dead.

Ray gripped the hilt of his sword, took a long breath, and whispered, "So, as you wish, Your Highness, I accept your challenge... As the Captain of the Van Empire, I am the symbol of the Dragons, and I cannot tolerate your insults to our Legions... I don't understand why you're challenging me like this, but you've already done it, haven't you? I'll give you a satisfactory answer. ”

In the absence of sufficient weight on the battlefield for the mediation of the Allied commander-in-chief, the duel was a foregone conclusion.
