I Quit Saving the Academy Heroes

For the honor of the party members!

“I just said… ”

“You want me to cancel that word?”

I giggled and cut off Esther’s words.

“What’s wrong, I don’t listen to anyone weaker than me.”

Against her, I summoned up my mana.

Now that I’ve been patient with it, I don’t think it’s necessary anymore, so my mood has risen to a dangerously high level.

“Just saying that, I’ll make sure you take responsibility for it.”

The saint took a fighting stance and said threateningly to me.

I was rather happy with it.

“The sea I wanted. Until now, I was afraid that the party atmosphere would go crazy, but now there is no need for that, right?”

“Hey, are you holding up? You’re talking as if you’ve sacrificed yourself since before, isn’t that bad?”

“It was decided. Saints or whatever, I will send you to your goddess.”

right before we collide.

Leo shouted next to him.

“Wait, Esther!”

“Leo, but you just heard him talk!”

“I know. I will take responsibility for everything including that, so first calm down.”

I looked pathetic as they were chatting in front of me.

To be honest, I was a little intrigued.

As for this Leo Epsilt, how the hell am I supposed to take responsibility for it?

Instead of the saint, Leo comes forward.

“Hey, Louis Wallenstein.”

He sighs and exhales.

“I challenge you to a duel.”

“Did I hear you wrong?”

With Leo Epsylt’s move this time, I was really taken aback.

That’s right, in the last match, he was thoroughly humiliated by me.

But what about a duel?

Even if you try hard from today, it will be impossible to defeat me in the near future.

“You’re not going to run away, are you?”

he even provokes me

By the way, the duel at this academy is a duel between nobles stipulated in the school rules.

Regarding the honor of one or both sides, the duel is fought under the observation of the professor over an apology and a price.

In the academy, basically, everyone is equal regardless of their status.

This duel can only be requested by nobles against nobles, just like outside the academy.

The losing side apologizes to the winning side, and if there is a specific condition, it must be fulfilled.

However, whether or not to accept the duel is not compulsory, so I do not have to accept his request if I wish.

Of course, not accepting a duel would damage your honor.

That’s why most of the cadets join in a duel they don’t even want to weep and eat mustard.

The point here is that I am stronger than Leo Epsilt.

So there’s no way I’m going to run away or not accept his duel.

But why does he apply for a duel?

First, I asked him the most basic part.

“For what reason are you requesting a duel?”

“Of course, you insulted us by denigrating the efforts of me and my party members. In addition to that, even the blasphemous words to the saint that I couldn’t even put in my mouth. Are you sure you won’t say no?”

Of course, I had a lot to say.

Things were getting more and more interesting, so I first listened to him quietly.

Above all, he, who was excited until he grabbed me by the neck earlier, is now speaking calmly.

It must have been something I had thought about before.

“Originally, I was going to cancel that ridiculous deportation application you submitted and treat it like a sincere apology to us.”

He speaks as if he has a great favor.

“But today, listening to you, that’s not enough.”

Pointing at me, he shouts.

“Just publicly acknowledge your remarks, and make a public apology to the saint and to us. After that, drop out of the academy!”

Perhaps the story had not been told in advance, and the party members behind Leo looked surprised.

The saint was looking at him with a moved expression, but looking at him as if he couldn’t believe even Elin right now.

Veronica had already turned white.

I smirked.

It means that you will step on me so that I will never recover again.

Strictly speaking, what I said to Esther earlier was not to curse the church itself, but only the corrupt priests and saints.

That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t say it publicly in front of others.

It’s because I’m the only one here, so if I officially admit that I said this, the denomination won’t sit still.

In the worst case, an investigation may come in.

And if you ask me for a public apology, you’re going to trample on my honor and make me out of the aristocratic society.

The moment I make a public apology, rumors about it will probably circulate for years.

Finally, drop out of the academy.

In this world, the fact that aristocrats did not graduate from Hellon Academy is a huge blow.

To the extent that they are called half-nobles.

Even noble ladies who dream of marrying into a high-ranking aristocratic family graduate from the academy unconditionally.

For such people, they are deliberately assigned to parties with little activity.

In particular, it is natural for an heir who is scheduled to become the family head like me to be deprived of the position of successor.

If you don’t graduate normally from the academy.

The aristocratic society of this empire is connected by the academy’s academic ties.

After all, either of those three is fatal to me.

So I was more curious.

If you put such a condition, do you have to endure a similar level of condition?

“What if you lose?”

I asked him skeptically.

“Of course it won’t, but then I’ll apologize to you and drop out of the academy!”

Although the other party members are astonished.

I shed tears of laughter.

In the first place, that condition is unacceptable to me.

After falling into this world, I made up my mind to kill the Demon King instead of that worn out hero.

In the end, in order to completely kill the Demon King, you need a holy sword that only a hero can handle.

I haven’t found a way to replace him yet.

So, Leo Epsilt should follow the story properly and graduate from the academy.

Of course, even if it’s not, the hero candidate drops out of the academy?

No matter what the content of the duel, there was a high probability that it would not happen.

I’ll try to stop it from above.

It offers me other suitable rewards.

Perhaps he expected this and made such a condition.

So, I shook my head.

“No, not like that.”

I pondered briefly.

It’s not impossible, it’s something that might be beneficial to me…

“First of all, since I made a public apology, you should also apologize publicly to me. Leo, you are fighting a duel for the honor of your party members, so if you lose, you should all apologize.”

I really don’t want to receive an apology.

Do you know that there is no truth in it anyway?

So it should be a public apology, not just an apology.

I don’t want their apologies, I want them to be humiliated.

“What… !”

Although the saint is furious again.

“It’s okay, Esther. Accept it.”

Leo confidently reassures the saint.

“Of course it is not the end. Did I even go to resignation?”

I was determined to accept the terms he said.

I said the following conditions.

“If you lose, hand over your sword to me.”

If the previous one was a condition for my mental satisfaction.

This was a condition for my gain.

Instead of Leo Epsilt making no effort, I grew up by raking in the spirits in the game.

Unfortunately, there was no sword-related performance in this game.

When the main character is a candidate for a hero, he uses a sword brought from his family.

After becoming a hero, he uses the holy sword of the church.

I didn’t need another sword, so I didn’t have a hidden sword to eat.

The sword I had just given as a condition was that precious sword.

There is an event that awakens the hidden power in relation to the sword instead of the giyeon.

That pathetic bastard has not yet awakened his power.

I’d rather write

Even so, Leo hesitated for a moment because it was the treasured sword of the Epsilt family, even the sword with a well-known name.

“I dropped out of the academy.”

I said.

“It’s like a black clone for a swordsman. Besides, it’s a family sword, don’t you think that level should be appropriate?”

Having said that, he nodded.

“Hey, I’m not going to lose to someone like you as a hero candidate anyway. All right, take it all.”

With that confidence, I narrowed my eyes and looked at him.

Obviously, something is certain.

“The duel is to apply to the professor during the return training class, and then conduct it during the combat training class.”

he says

If he’s plotting something, he’ll have to fight right away with no time to waste.

You have to apply first, write an oath, appoint an observer, and ask for permission from the professors, etc.

Just because you want to do it, you can’t do it right away.

It doesn’t make sense if you can’t duel right away anyway.

It would be better to take the time to find out what his intentions are.

I nodded.

“I do.”
