After finishing helping the city rebuild, I came to the training ground.


    I came because it was time to take turns with the people who had been training in the morning, but it was a little early or the first half of the group was still training.


    I came because the reconstruction of the area of the city I was in charge of was finished earlier than the others, but it wouldn''t be a problem to train early.


    Yes, Eric was in the first half of the group.


    It''s been a while since I''ve had a fight with Eric.


    He''s stronger than me.


    It would be better practice than going it alone.


    With that in mind, I look for one person in a large training area full of people.


    I knew it would be hard, but it was easy to find him.


    Because Eric was in the center of the crowd.


    He was supposed to be in training, but everyone stopped to look at him and see what he was doing.


    Curious, I went there and found the Eric I was looking for.


    This crowd of people are trying to see Eric fight.


    Eric was confronted by Deputy Commander Liberto.


    ''Excuse me, what''s this all about?''


    I talk to people I know who have been around and who are sometimes involved with Eric.


    Eric always calls him ''old man''.


    ''Hmm?　Oh, you''re Yurina. As you can see, Eric and his deputy commander are going to fight.


    Who are these people around?


    ''You''re the ones who watch the game out of curiosity, well, me too. If the Commander had been there, you''d have been paying attention.


    Surely if Commander Yelle was there, he would pay attention and the others would go back to training.


    But right now, there is no one to pay attention.


    Everyone would be concerned about it.


    The strongest man in the Order of Begonia, Deputy Commander Libert, the most powerful man in the Order.


    And the newcomer who suddenly appeared, Eric Aulin, who played a major role in the raid.


    Who is more powerful, such two men?


    I haven''t thought about it too much, but I''m a little curious too.


    I''d love to train, but there will be something to be learned from watching others fight.


    I''ll have to watch and learn from them.


    He excused himself and then decided to observe the two men fighting.


    They took a stance and someone nearby popped a coin.


    Perhaps the moment that coin landed on the ground, the fight would begin.


    And then - the coin fell to the ground.


    The first person to attack was the deputy commander.


    He closed the distance that was between the two of them at once and swung his wooden sword.


    With a speed that even the soldiers in the Order couldn''t react to, that attack alone would get most people killed.


    Even I can just barely avoid it.


    However, Eric received it with his wooden sword without seeming to be particularly panicked.


    Then he shed the wooden sword he received and immediately moved to attack.


    The deputy commander avoided the wooden sword that was close to his neck by deflecting his body.


    Eric just barely prevented it with his arms, but once he got away from it, he got away from it.


    The people around him buzzed for a moment as they watched the attack and defense.


    ''''Awesome, dude........''''


    I heard the old man watching next to me mutter that.


    The current offensive and defense alone was a far cry from the people around him in terms of skill and strength.


    Eric moved to attack while preventing the vice commander''s first attack.


    I don''t know how to learn a skill like that, I don''t know how to learn it.


    And the deputy commander who avoided it and attacked was also very good at using his body.


    It''s a sword-and-sword fight, so that''s the only thing you''re likely to focus on, but it''s an all-or-nothing fight.


    The deputy commander who throws a kick and Eric who prevents it both know that.


    I don''t have that kind of flexibility in fighting.


    I need to learn that kind of fighting style from those two fights.


    ''Don''t do it, Eric,''


    Mr. Liberto, I didn''t think you could attack from that position.


    I wasn''t expecting this attack, but it''s preventable?


    It was later than I expected.


    Don''t tell me.


    They are having such a conversation with each other with a little smile on their faces.


    However, they aren''t distracted at all, and you can see that they are ready to respond immediately if the other party attacks them.


    Probably evenly matched in power.


    Eric''s skills are a bit better than mine. I don''t know why the younger Eric has better technique, but I guess that''s a talent.


    However, the deputy commander is better at handling the body.


    He''s a drunken sword to begin with, someone who can fight in a way that makes no sense.


    There are too many people who can draw out too many ways to dodge and attack, and not many can handle it.


    Even with Eric''s skills, his attacks would still not hit and he wouldn''t be able to predict how they would work.


    You can''t predict who will win at all.


    ''''It''s time for the guys in the morning group to be replaced, so let''s get this over with.


    Yes, sir.


    Then he began to attack again, this time from the deputy commander''s side.


    This battle of the training ground was then talked about for a long time in the Order.
