"What good thing have you done for me, sister?"

"Well, that... it was just a spur of the moment thing. I didn't take it seriously..."

“Do you think everyone is going to take this as a joke?”

Her words were exactly what aristocrats who value respectability would say.

"...No, I am also from the Marquis's family, right? You should understand that marriage cannot be decided so casually, right?"

"What do you think this is?" Ye Kai placed a pile of parchment heavily in front of Eleanor. "It's not all about a duel, but at least it's a challenge letter for a competition. What should I do with this?"

“Ah…”

Of course, it is possible to refuse the competition, but in doing so, the reputation of the Marquisate of Assedgone would be damaged.

At least part of it has to be accepted, but if Ye Kai loses, the rumors will spread quickly and turn into a topic about Eleanor's marriage.

Of course, this is not allowed, so Glaud will have to run around to put out the fire. Even if he succeeds in putting out the fire, it will cause great trouble to all parties.

"That's right! As long as Ye Kai doesn't lose, it's fine, right? That's it, Ye Kai will never lose to anyone."

“That’s so easy to say.”

This claim was obviously based on the fact that none of the guards privately hired by the Marquis of Asedgoon could match Ye Kai.

Indeed, even if it is an armed opponent, Ye Kai has a certain degree of confidence that he can win. However, it is easy to imagine that there will be many opponents who are difficult to deal with.

At the very least, it would be foolhardy to fight a magic attack with bare hands. Either find a way to defend yourself or get a way to attack from a distance.

------------------

Ye Kai is not good at using general earth, water, fire, wind and thunder attribute attack magic. Almost nothing can reach a usable level. This may be because his personal cognition is overwhelmed by the widespread common cognition.

For example, fire magic. His claims of "increased Brownian motion causing heat..." or "heat energy causing electron orbital transitions producing light..." can easily be drowned out by the resonance of many people who believe that "fire is red light and extreme heat". This difference is difficult to overcome.

You may think that it will be fine if you cater to it, but the world will not accept it so easily just because you convince it with self-deceiving words.

In contrast, he was able to construct quite complex structures with light magic. This was probably because the people in this world had a rather crude understanding of light.

As for dark magic, he was completely unable to perform it. To Ye Kai, darkness was a state of "no light", and he couldn't even understand darkness itself as a concept.

The most reliable and efficient are Transfiguration Magic and Transfiguration Magic, which are classified as earth magic but are independent derivative forms.

It seems that having detailed knowledge of the structure of matter is more advantageous. Even knowledge at the middle school or high school level is enough. However, there is no direct attack magic in transformation and sex change magic.

In search of an effective means of attack, Ye Kai turned his attention to another magic system.

That is recorded magic. Magic is activated by injecting magic power into recorded runes. It is generally used in magic tools, but it is generally considered difficult to record advanced magic.

However, he noticed a feature: if it was the same rune, anyone could cast the same magic.

If the power can be controlled by the amount of magic infused, then it is worthwhile to try complex runes.

When he asked Glaud to recommend someone familiar with recording magic, Glaud gave him a letter of introduction to the Royal Court of Magic.

He had to start learning the magical writing, which, unlike the common language, had an established method of learning. For those who wanted to learn professionally, this was a necessary step and could be taken for granted.

Here, Ye Kai will also become an excellent student, but he is almost reaching his limit.

The large amount of knowledge that was instilled in a short period of time almost overheated his mind. If it wasn't a matter of life and death, he would have given up long ago.

So he changed direction a bit. He gave up studying existing accounts and started directly trying to write content. He learned the grammar first, then skipped straight to the application.

He practiced by translating modern knowledge into accounts, repeatedly experiencing success and failure, and he intended to use only those things that seemed useful.

--------------

One sunny day, when Graud was walking towards the king's office, he accidentally met the Apenchit tutor of the Magic Court in the corridor. As soon as the tutor recognized Graud, he hurried over to talk to him.

"My Lord Marquis, that young man is truly a genius."

“Oh, is it really that great?”

"I thought he was just obsessed with new descriptions, a reckless person, but he has indeed succeeded in some of his attempts. Perhaps because he is used to it, he has even started to point out the inefficiencies in existing descriptions. If you are willing to entrust him to me, I promise to train him into a descriptive researcher who will leave his name in history."

He was very optimistic about the black-haired young man.

"But, according to my daughter, he doesn't seem to be the type who enjoys learning for its own sake, although he will do his best to learn as a means. His curiosity seems to be stronger than that of ordinary people."

"What a waste of talent."

(Was it perhaps a mistake to send him to the Court of Demons? He seems to be the kind of genius that would cause a stir, for better or worse.)

Glaude felt it might be better to withdraw him when the time was right.

----------------

While Ye Kai was studying countermeasures, challengers continued to arrive in an endless stream.

In desperation, he arranged his time and borrowed a temporary competition venue in the training ground to deal with his opponents. The opponents were of all kinds and varied.

A confident black medal adventurer came to challenge him wielding a powerful sword. He quickly approached while dodging, and then struck the opponent with a sword in the chest, sending him flying.

A hunched nobleman took out a bow and arrow to snipe. He rushed forward while knocking down the arrows and knocked the opponent unconscious with one punch.

A knight from the kingdom rode towards him on horseback with a spear in his hand. He grabbed the spear and knocked the knight off his horse, then kicked him in the chest and abdomen, causing him to spit bubbles.

When another boxer demonstrated his unique fighting skills, he confronted him head-on and defeated him directly.

After defeating one famous strongman after another, the number of challengers began to gradually decrease.

Even so, the number of challengers never dwindled to zero, which gave him a headache. Sooner or later, his weakness, the magician challenger, would appear.

Before that, he needed to prepare some necessary things.
