A boy who was disowned because he was second in everything, is unknowingly unmatched

Volume 1 

Chapter 4-Swordsmanship and body arts

(TL:By Rafael)

The duel takes place in front of the guild.

　Many people are rushing there, and some are in a festive mood. According to what I heard, it was customary to settle the guild dispute in such a  way. Maybe it's because I was originally an aristocrat that I had the impression that it was a rough style.

"Thank you for coming without running away.-Cleo-kun."(Erio)

"Of course, Mr. Erio"(Cleo)

A circular field in front of the guild.

　When I get there, Erio was already ready for the battle. He pulls out his sword, holds it over the sun, and squints at the brilliance of it's reflection from the sun.

　I lightly bowed and then stand in front of him.

　Then the slender swordfighter said:

"Hmm. Apparently, from the point of view of knowing these manners, you were also a former aristocrat? Cleo-I haven't heard that name ..."(Erio)

"Haha, it's my secret. If you win, you'll know."(Cleo)

"I see. Apparently you also have a reason to hide it!"(Erio)

　Erio holds a sword in front of me and grins.

　The smile was gleaming in his beautiful neutral face.

　I respond to it by pulling out my sword. The guild staff, who are the mediators, declared that they were ready for each other.

"Then, the duel will start from now on! The rules are anything other than magic! --Then, start !!"(Guild Staff)

　Then the fire lid is cut and dropped.

　A duel with an opponent who aims to be the best swordfighter has begun.

◆

　The ability of my sword technique was Hakuchu.

　One had to  hit his foe, parry foe's attacks and then counter attack . it was a repeat of these basic steps. The speed of the swords gradually increased , and what was unfolded there was quite high level. But I know a faster and stronger swordfighter .

"I think I can do more, Cleo-kun."(Erio)

"But, I can also keep going  ...?"(Cleo)

　In the gap.

　We exchanged words with a sense of distance that seemed to breathe each other. Erio must be feeling the same. I thought so.

　This person also knows about  "his sword".

　A wall that couldn't be overcome by any means-those who bumped into it. I had some kind of sympathy and familiarity for this person named Erio.

"Erio's sword technique is very beautiful. It's flowing and smooth, but at the same time, I can feel the will to never break."(Cleo)

"Thank you, because I've never been praised like that."(Erio)

(TL: MC is a lady killer✅)

"But it's too beautiful."(Cleo)

"what……?"(Erio)

　That's why I understand.

　That this is a sword technique that is too addictive to the mold.

　Artistic and strong, however, in the field of combat, it could rarely be an extra element. In other words, there is a weakness there.

"In other words, it's empty!"(Cleo)

"But ...!?"(Erio)

　I kicked Erio's abdomen through a slight gap due to him being flustered.

　Certainly, a beautiful sword technique is worth it. But in the battle, the one who won was worth it. Someone like me also know that.

　"Aruna" - I always thought How can I win in a battle against an opponent that was never surpassed?

　The answer, combining swordsmanship with body arts--!

"F*ck……!"(Erio)

　Erio wields a sword with a minimum of movement and an expression of agony.

　However, there is no help for it. I sneaked into the other person's pocket space and screwed my elbow in this time. Then, the feeling of creaking bones was transmitted to me.

　At this point, there is no trend in this battle.

　Finally, I swung my sword and flicked it off Erio-san.

"This is the end--isn't it?"(Cleo

　The crowd started to cheer.

　Erio, who was on his knees, was stunned and raised his face and looked up to me.
