You are the one with the ungoverned tongue . We are elves, the chosen race . ”
“Chosen? Daniela is wonderful and beautiful, I’ll give you that . And light elves are indeed a great race…”
“So you understand? Then…”
Adlus offered his hand to Daniela, completing misunderstanding me . I grabbed his wrist with the intention of crushing it .
“However, in spite of appearances, you’re just full of shit . In fact, you’re not even scum!!”
“Let go of my hand . Or else…”
“Or else what?”
Magic energy began to blow around Adlus as he looked down at me . Was this a threat? Stupid bastard . That wasn’t enough to make me back down .
“Perhaps I’ll kill you?”
The calmness in his voice nearly made me blow a fuse . That was one thing not to be said lightly . Back in Japan, such threats would just lead to a fight . But in this world, people could actually die .
It didn’t help that I was already angry . Cold air was already gathering around my feet .
“Then give it your best shot . ”
Ice crackled on the floor . Adlus’s own magic stopped it from reaching him, but the area surrounding him was starting to freeze .
But then something tapped my shoulder . I turned and saw Daniela . I had been so aggravated that I hadn’t noticed that she was reacting in the same way . The magic energy that was flowing from her was crazy
“That is enough . No one ridicules my Asagi to that extant . ”
“Hmph… So you’re Asagi . You haven’t been an Adventurer for long, have you? Still, you won’t earn my forgiveness easily . ”
“I don’t want it . But come at me again, and I’ll ensure you’ll never want to walk the streets again . ”
I tightened my grip once more before letting go . Tsk . I was almost disappointed it didn’t break . He was incredibly strong…
“Daniela . We’ll meet again . ”
“I hope you will bring a written will next time . ”
“Hmph . You are a feisty one… Now, excuse me . ”
Adlus walked through without even being signed in . …What a rule breaker .
“…Did you not know him, Mister Asagi?’
“I knew that a lot of people were chanting his name . What’s with him, anyway?”
“He won the last two tournaments . ”
“He won?”
The man behind the desk shook his head in wonderment .
“Yes . Adlus the Wanderer… . He’s a professional water magic-user . He will be in the main games . ”
“Water, huh…”
Unfortunately, water magic was very powerful . Something without shape can be made into anything . The possibilities were endless . It could be used for attacks and defense . And he was clearly more skilled than me . But…
“I’ll freeze whatever he throws at me . ”
I said as I crushed the ice under my foot . Ice magic was perfect for taking the warmth out of something . I would show him . It didn’t matter if it had a shape or not .
He’d fall to his knees and beg for forgiveness . He’d regret trying to take Daniela away .
“Let’s go, Daniela . The game’s about to start . ”
“Yes . There are better things to think about . ”
“Right!”
We bumped our fists together . That was all that was needed for us to land on the same page . It was ridiculous that anyone could think they could come between us .
Now, it was off to see Group C!
