The red-haired woman, Bianca Van Martinez, was overcome with burning anger.

A week ago, she received an invitation from someone. It was an invitation from her rival, Ilya von Carstein.

Ilya von Carstein.

During her time at the academy, she was a woman who was often compared to her even though her school year and department were different.

Just like herself, who was the head of the Magic Department, she was also the head of the Knights Department. He was also evaluated as an all-time talent.

Moreover, because their families’ status was similar, people did not hesitate to call the two rivals.

Beautiful looks, noble blood, and incredible talent. Between the two geniuses, an argument ensued as to who was better.

Bianca, the person involved, was also conscious of this to some extent. It was rising and falling in my mouth so much that I couldn’t help but notice it.

One day, I was curious, so I went to the Knights’ Department and spied on it. And the result was confirmed. Clearly, her rival had talent comparable to her own. It was truly outstanding. However, unlike himself, he had a serious flaw.

His personality wasn’t very good. He was bullying the weak.

‘How could such a weak boy…’

Bianca concluded in her heart that a bully or a bully could not be her competition.

Whenever there was an undergraduate competition, she tried to prove it. But strangely enough, it wasn’t easy. Even though he was a year younger than me, he couldn’t easily win. He was clearly a type of human being who tormented weak boys, but his skills were amazing.

In the end, their fierce battle continued until the day Bianca graduated, ultimately ending with 4 wins and 4 losses.

Those were the girls…

『Invitation to my home. I definitely hope you come. ―Ilia von Carstein』

A week ago, an invitation came from my old enemy. Bianca thought.

‘Are we finally going to see the end…’

It was a car that she also thought was uncomfortable. As soon as Bianca received the invitation, she immediately rushed to Ilya von Carstein’s mansion. I was planning on winning a match that I couldn’t achieve.

But Bianca was unable to meet the landlord.

“The lady is currently traveling.”

“???”

A week passed and we reached now.

…

Inviting guests and going on a week-long trip…Bianca was impressed by Carlstein’s novel hospitality.

No one had ever dared try something like this with her. It was a refreshing treat for the first time in my life.

At this point, I started to have some doubts.

‘Is this your intention to gain a psychological upper hand by deliberately arousing me…?’

She glared at the shameless landlord sitting in front of her to read his intentions.

However, the intention was not read at all. I just thought, ‘Oh, I forgot.’ He just made a certain facial expression. It wasn’t for any other intention, it just felt like I had forgotten and left the house.

“······.”

‘Did I really forget…’

At that moment, unbearable anger boiled within Bianca’s body. I wanted to beat up this shameless junior in front of me.

And that anger resonated with the circles accumulated in the heart and became tangible.

Suddenly, flames bloomed all over her body.

Her hair slowly rises. At the same time, red flames spread from the top of the head. Eventually, all of her hair turned into flames and burned brightly.

bang!!

Bianca jumped up, breaking the guest table.

She opened her mouth, engulfed in billowing flames.

“Follow me, Ilya von Carstein…I’ll burn you…“

A bloody voice echoed in the room.

***

gulp!

I swallowed my saliva.

My heart sank when I saw the angry senior Bianca and the crazy bitch confronting each other in the training hall.

I never thought I would be able to watch the fight between the two right in front of my eyes… It’s a new feeling.

When the geniuses of the century faced off in the undergraduate competition held twice a semester, all attention in the academy would be focused. It was a specialty of the Academy.

Everyone was talking excitedly, saying things like ‘Who will win this time’ and ‘Someone’s form is unusual’, as if it were a festival.

Except for me, of course… I was alone and quietly cheering for senior Bianca in the corner. I beg you to please punish this crazy bitch.

Anyway, the fight between senior Bianca and Illya was a big event that no Academy member could miss.

The head maid who was with me was just setting up the dance floor, whether she knew it or not.

After a while, the head maid who had finished setting up the training room handed me a sword. It was a pure white rapier with the impression of pure white snow.

“Please bring it to the lady.”

The chamberlain asks to deliver the sword to the crazy bitch. I also wanted to see the fight between the two, so I handed it to them.

“Huh-up!”

It was unexpectedly heavy. The sword body was obviously thin, but it was strangely heavy. I whined and brought it to the crazy bitch.

“Huh! Huh! Now, here.”

“······.”

The crazy bitch received the rapier and swung it around with one hand to check its condition.

But at that time, when Bianca saw me bringing the sword, she reacted with surprise.

“You?! Faculty of Engineering…?”

“Ah, hello senior…you’re still hot…“

I greeted warmly.

Although we weren’t particularly close, we knew each other. She would often talk to me. Of course, the crazy bitch interfered every time…

In fact, in a way, it was safe to say that he was the person I was closest to at the Academy. Despite the pressure from this crazy bitch, she was the only one who tried to talk to me. It’s a painful memory.

“Why are you here…?”

The senior seemed really surprised. It was a reaction to meeting someone I never expected.

But the surprise was short-lived. The confused senior finally came to a conclusion and turned his head to glare at the crazy bitch.

“Not only did they bully me at the academy, they brought me home and bullied me?!! You are still a noble!!”

“······.”

The crazy bitch also glared at her senior. There seems to be something bothering me.

My senior spoke to me in a growling voice.

“Stay out…because it’s going to get dangerous here…”

“Yes! I will support you!”

I ran out of the training ground in a hurry. It felt like a crazy bitch was staring at my back, but it didn’t matter. Now all that’s left is to watch the hilarious fight.

***

As soon as I left the training ground, the fight started as promised.

The first pitcher was senior Bianca. The senior threw a huge fireball at the crazy bitch.

A fireball flying at incredible speed.

The crazy bitch swings her rapier to block. With just one light swing, the huge fireball disappeared.

But the fireball was a trick. Bianca senior suddenly jumped out from behind the disappearing fireball and swung her fist covered in flames.

“Die!!”

The flames wrapped around the senior’s fist had a very dangerous color. The crazy bitch must have decided that she couldn’t stop it, so she dodged.

Kwaaa!!!

The place where the crazy bitch was was dented as if a meteorite had fallen.

“The floor of Orichalcon…”

The head maid’s body, watching this, was trembling.

The senior’s offensive continued.

Flames of tremendous firepower continued to pour down at the crazy bitch. The heat was enough to seep through the protective shield.

But the crazy bitch managed to block the flames. Sometimes she would block, sometimes she would avoid and deal with it skillfully, she was a crazy bitch.

“······.”

The senior who saw that couldn’t help but stand tall and wrap both hands in flames. It was a horrifying flame that felt somewhat different from any flames I had seen before. Just looking at it raised an alarm that my head was in danger.

The senior, who put his hands together like he was joining his hands, muttered to the crazy bitch.

“Try to avoid this too…”

The head maid suddenly blocks my path.

“Excuse me.”

And in an instant, with a tremendous roar, the entire gym was engulfed in terrible flames.

Quaaa

***

I was scared behind the maid’s head. I saw terrible flames shattering the protective shield erected in the training hall.

If it weren’t for the maid’s protection, I might have burned up like those shields.

I held on tightly to the head maid’s collar.

‘Si, the head maid…!’

“Now let go.”

Even though I was rejected, I stuck to her back. Because life is precious…

I stayed close behind the head maid and looked at the training hall engulfed in flames.

Flames raging around the senior. It was like a small sun. I didn’t think anyone could survive in there.

As the senior waved his hand, the flames slowly died out.

Flames gradually narrowing the area.

Suddenly.

A crazy bitch jumped out from between them. It looked fine, without any scorch.

“!!”

The crazy bitch swings a sword with a blue glow towards the senior.

The senior raises his hand to block.

Kyaang!!

A metallic sound that could not be attributed to the clash of hands and swords rang out in the training hall.

The senior spoke while holding the blade in his hand.

“Surviving that fire is amazing. But that’s just it. You can never pierce my skin…!!”

The senior was unable to finish his sentence and hurriedly let go of his sword and flew backwards.

It was because I felt the blade slowly digging into my hand.

‘How on earth…!!’

The senior glared at the crazy bitch while stopping the bleeding from the wound on his hand with a flame.

The crazy bitch’s sword was shining white.

It was a sword lecture.

***

“Ha!”

She was so dumbfounded that she let out a laugh. This was because the sword sword, a mystery that only a handful of swordsmen chosen by heaven could obtain, which a talented person could not obtain even if he trained his whole life, was clearly showing off his presence on the opponent’s sword. In the hands of someone who is barely over 20 years old.

At the same time, I was angry.

‘How can such a strong person bully the weak…!!’

She couldn’t tolerate it. Isn’t it the strong who exist for the weak? It was completely incomprehensible that the owner of such a supreme state was the type of person she could not help but despise.

Finally she made up her mind. I decided to lead this foolish junior to the right path.

She declared, pointing to the scared man behind the maid.

If “ wins this sparring match, I will take that kid with me…”

It wasn’t a selfish remark. It was just to guide my juniors to the right path…
