Abnormal Moon

There were quite a few pedestrians in the passageway, and after seeing the handsome white-haired boy, they all cast subtle glances at him.

Most people glanced at him and looked away, but a few huddled together with their companions, whispering amongst themselves and occasionally glancing at him.

"Does our school have any handsome boys like that?"

"I don't know, if someone did, they would have been famous by now, right?"

The girls huddled together, whispering amongst themselves with a strange, joyful murmur.

It wasn't just the girls who were paying attention to him; two boys were also looking at him with furrowed brows and slightly serious expressions.

"With a broad frame and well-proportioned muscles, this guy's physique is extraordinary!"

"There's no such creature in the sacred texts, is there?"

Upon closer inspection, the white-haired youth was much taller than average, estimated to be around 1.85 meters, or perhaps even taller. He was wearing a fitted short-sleeved shirt and casual pants that outlined his well-defined muscle lines, giving him a sharp and capable look.

That kind of physique cannot be built without years of training; in a place like the Academy City, the students have this level of insight.

"Never mind that, I heard there's a duel in the central courtyard! If we're late, we'll miss it!"

"I heard that too. Apparently, both of them are formidable opponents! Let's go, let's go!"

With that, the two boys hurriedly left.

As if reminded by them, the pedestrians around them hurried in the same direction, and even the girls followed closely behind, their faces full of interest.

"A duel in the Midgard?"

Roy looked in the direction they had left, lost in thought.

"As expected of a city of learning and fighting, the atmosphere here is full of martial arts!"

Since there's still time before we meet up, let's go check it out!

Thinking this, Roy also started walking and followed the direction in which the passersby had gone.

Courtyard.

It's much more spacious than I imagined.

Surrounding a huge fountain is a vast circular open space with a diameter of several hundred meters, scattered with vending machines and benches. Wide sidewalks lead in all directions, and Roy arrived at this huge atrium through one of these sidewalks.

When Roy arrived, a large crowd had already gathered there.

Apart from him, everyone else was wearing school uniforms. There were both boys and girls, ranging in age from about thirteen or fourteen to twenty-one or twenty-two. They were all teenagers and students.

At this moment, all the students were looking intently at the center of the courtyard.

There stood two figures, about ten meters apart, both displaying their weapons. An atmosphere of impending duel was brewing in the air.

It seems the duel hasn't even started yet.

Thinking this, Roy looked at the two duelists.

On the left, closer to Roy, is a girl with a pretty and delicate appearance. She is about sixteen or seventeen years old, about the same age as Roy. Her narrow, sharp, bright blue eyes, like new leaves, are very striking. Her straight nose and snow-white skin are also very eye-catching.

What is most eye-catching is undoubtedly her waist-length hair, which is more delicate than crimson and more vibrant than peach. If a comparison must be made, it is like rose-colored hair.

As a young woman in the prime of her life, her appearance was undoubtedly extraordinary.

But at this moment, she is holding a slender Western sword.

The hilt of the sword he held was a pure white stick, while the blade itself was formed from gathered light, making it a true light blade weapon, the same type as the weapon in Roy's dream.

The girl holding the sword looked heroic and awe-inspiring, making it clear at a glance that she should not be underestimated because of her beautiful appearance.

"Julis Alexia von Risfeld... Wow, I never expected that the one dueling in the Midgard would be this princess! This is truly big news!"

Not far away, someone was holding a stick-like object, aiming it at the scene, seemingly filming, and making excited muttering noises.

"Is she famous?"

Roy leaned closer and asked him.

"What do you mean by famous? She's the first princess of the Kingdom of Lezetania. She's a top-ranked expert in this school, listed on the first page of the Priest's Book. Even if you don't care about her battle record, you should know her just by her outstanding appearance, right? You don't even know that? Are you even a man?"

The man didn't turn around, muttering something to himself, as if to say, "Don't disturb my filming."

"I'm new here today, so I really don't know."

"Ok?"

The man paused, looking over with a surprised expression.

Roy's appearance, figure, and attire all came into view.

"That's understandable..."

He nodded in understanding.

In terms of appearance, this person is definitely no less popular among girls than Yulis is among boys. If he were a student at the school, there would be no way he wouldn't know him.

But he had never seen this face before, so it must be someone new.

But at this time, what about the newcomer?

"Are you a specially admitted student?"

"That's it."

Roy gave a vague answer, his gaze falling on the open space surrounded by the audience.

Having traveled through so many years, he had forgotten many things, but he still had some impressions of this world. After arriving in this world, he quickly realized that this was the world of the Academy City.

Could the other party in that duel be the male protagonist?

"Who?"

Roy's gaze fell on the other person in the duel.

He was stunned when he saw the person.

Even though he had forgotten many details, he would never believe that the male lead was even if he were beaten to death!

Chapter 146 The Duel

The princess with rosy hair was rivaled by another young girl.

The girl had long, flowing silver hair that reached her waist, but it was tied into two tufts at the back of her head. Although her uniforms were slightly different, they were basically the same style. She looked very young, at most thirteen or fourteen years old, so it was probably a junior high school uniform.

Her appearance was in no way inferior to that of the princess. Her big, watery eyes were very cute. Although she was still very young, her beautiful figure could not be hidden by her clothes. She was an absolute beauty with a baby face and big breasts.

The weapon she held in her hand was not a light-blade weapon, but a real knife that gleamed with a cold light.

In contrast, the silver-haired girl wielding the real knife exuded a more terrifying and fierce aura than the princess. Her face showed no fear, and she was like a sharp sword, piercing the hearts of those who confronted her.

In contrast, the princess's expression was extremely grim, as if she were forcing herself to fight a powerful enemy.

Roy nodded slightly.

If those two were to fight, he would vote for the silver-haired girl.

Although she was wielding a real sword instead of a light-bladed weapon, her aura already overwhelmed the rosy-haired princess.

Although momentum isn't everything in battle, falling behind in momentum can lead to an overwhelming disadvantage, making it difficult to fully unleash one's strength.

"Her opponents must be very strong too, right?"

Roy asked the boy next to him who was filming.

"That's more than just strong... Wait, it's about to begin!"

Just as the boy was about to boast, he saw that the battle was about to begin and quickly shut up, focusing on filming.

Seeing this, Roy stopped asking questions and focused his attention on the two people in the room.

In the field.

"I'm sorry, but I have a reason why I have to win."

The silver-haired girl gripped the knife, her expression a mixture of guilt and determination as she looked at the princess opposite her.

"It's alright, this is my own decision!"

Princess Euryth, with her rosy hair, remained steadfast despite her troubled expression.

She placed her hand on the round badge pinned to her chest.

That was a badge engraved with the image of a red lotus.

At the same time, she shouted loudly.

"Under the name of the Crimson Lotus, the Proof of Indomitable Spirit, I, Julis Alexia von Risfeld, challenge you, Kirin Toudou, to a duel!"

As if in response to her shout, the crimson lotus emblem on her chest emitted a red light that shot straight toward the silver-haired girl opposite her.

The silver-haired girl's real name should be Kirin Toudou. She wore the same Crimson Lotus Badge on her chest, and the red light shone straight into the badge.

"I, Kirin Toudou, accept Yulis-senpai's challenge to a duel!"

Kirin Toudou freed one hand and placed it on the Crimson Lotus Badge. In response to her voice, the badge on her chest also shone with a red light.

At that moment, the duel was decided.
