Isekai: New Adventure In The Fantasy World
32. The Duel Challenge

A 13-year-old man was walking quietly in a corridor. He wore a bright red shirt and a long blackish-brown robe with red and gold decoration. Her ruby-red irises looked beautiful combined with black hair that gave the child a firm impression.

Some people were seen looking at the stranger. Besides being curious, also because of the robe he wore. It makes them quite curious. But people who are viewed are only indifferent to the circumstances.

He walked to the canteen. Looks like a lot of people on the fund. Given this is a boarding school, it is not a stranger if the canteen or cafeteria is crowded in the morning in filled with children to fill their stomachs.

This kind of atmosphere made Zion remember her life. Especially during his school days. It feels nostalgic to old memories.

"Eh, Zion boy, right? What do you want to order?" Ask a saleswoman in the cafeteria.

Zion. It seems familiar "ah, if not wrong in the garden at that time right?" Ask him to make sure.

"Absolutely. You've been so busy training this year. I'm glad to see it... You seem to be getting stronger. Thank you for helping my son at the time." He said with a smile.

"Haha, same thing... I'm also glad your son survived. Oh, I'll order orange juice. A little thirsty too." He said while ordering drinks.

"Well, I'll make you something special" he said. Zion just smiled. "Oh, and just call auntie ya..." Further.

"Well, that's it."

Meanwhile...

Bruk!

"Toward look look dong!! Look Ice's clothes are so dirty! You village boy!!" Said a short-haired girl who looked angry at the braided long-haired girl standing before her. Beside him was a young man with light blue irises whose clothes looked wet.

It seemed like the long-haired girl had accidentally spilled her drink on the young man's clothes. But, according to Zion's observation, the young man was just indifferent. While the short-haired girl who was too concerned about her.

Zion watched a little while drinking her drink. He will only act when things are right beyond his limits.

"I'm sorry, I accidentally spilled it..." Said the girl while slightly bowing her body.

"Nonce intentionally?! Do you know who is in front of you?! You said accidentally?!"

"I was really unintentional... I didn't see him just now..." He said with a slightly vibrating tone of voice.

"How dare you!! [Water magic: ball-ball"

"Stop."

The girl's magic circle disappeared. Of course it surprised him. Not only him, but everyone there was also shocked by what happened.

Before this, they had not. Ever seen someone take away someone else's magic. Who the hell is he?

Zion walked up to the girl. "Rules number 21. It is forbidden to use magic except in training rooms or matches. Rule number 23. It was forbidden to attack other witches just because of a small matter. Pera-"

Sregs

Zion's clothes were pulled roughly by the girl. While Zion was just staring flatly. "Little problem you say?! You don't know yeah, that guy's fault?! You're the only stranger you don't have to interfere with!!"

"Neily Cirva stop!" Say someone with a cold voice. Everyone there was silent. The girl, Neily, immediately pushed Zion.

"You're not only breaking the rules, you're also making a fuss here. Come to the principal's room right now." Said cold.

"Good." Her speech. However, "you! I challenge you to a duel on the three-pine field after school and be witnessed by all the students and teachers of the academy! If you reject it, it means you're a coward!!" Say Neily and go.

Zion just sighed. Inconveniencing.

"Zion, are you okay?" Ask the man.

"I'm fine, Brother Reon." Answer Zion. Yeah, Reon's on security duty and is a coach here. It was to make it easier for her to keep an eye around and choose the best magician.

"Well, if so, continue your patrol duties." Reon. Zion nodded and left.

"Eh, Zion. The principal called you after this. Don't forget it."

"All right." Zion replied briefly.

While everyone there was still speechless and looking towards Reon. That's enough to piss him off. "What do you see? Get to class! Soon the bell in will ring!" Said firmly. All the students who were still there disappeared into their respective classes.

Meanwhile, Zion who was walking towards the Headmaster's room had a chance to see Neily who came out and threw a sharp look at him. Terrible too. It seemed like what he had done was really making him angry.

Tok tok tok tok

Zion knocked on the door. "Come in Zion." Rendrano said from the inside. Zion opened the door. A brown iris man smiled at her. "How's the patrol doing?"

"Everything went well, Lord. Except... There was a little commotion in the canteen." Said Zion slightly subduing her kapala.

"Neily Cirva is quite a talented boy, but her attitude is rather outrageous. You've done the right thing. And don't call me Lord when there's another. Just call me sir." Rendrano.

"All right, and thank you." Answer Zion.

"By the way... You didn't take the challenge?"

Zion raised her head. "Lord allows?"

Smilingly. "Posteron. It can also be used for judgment."

"All right!" Vigorously.

"Well, as you prepare, you can come with me to class."

"All right!"

Rendrano walks into a classroom and Zion follows behind him. The one who saw would probably think Zion was quite calm, but no one knew if in his mind, he was thinking about the plans and preparations for the duel later.

The door opened and they entered.

"Good morning sir.." Greet all students. However, their views were also directed at the young man who was near Rendrano.

"Good morning... Well Zion, you can sit on an empty bench." Rendrano.

"Good sir." Zion replied and walked towards the empty bench at the back.

However, involved there were some youths who were staring at him. One of them was the young man whose clothes were hit by the drink earlier. Then one girl sat not far from him. Neily Cirva's. He stared hard at Zion.

So vindictive of the boy.

The lesson begins and all the students seem to be seriously paying attention to the explanation and what Rendrano teaches. While Zion is actually writing words in her skill book. The lesson Rendrano taught him was enough, so he chose to focus on the duel later.

Zion stopped her activity and looked out the window. The atmosphere of this class is enough for him to miss. Zion closed her eyes letting the wind that was infiltrating from outside the window caress her black hair.

Zion opened her eyes again and looked around. When no one saw him, he ate the pill Rendrano gave him.

Let no one know the secret here.

A few hours passed and Rendrano's lesson ended. When Rendrano came out, Rendrano also went with him. But while passing a bench occupied by a girl with short hair, he stopped his steps.

"I accept your challenge. Three pine fields, after school." Say it and go straight away.

While Neily smiled haughtily. "There was guts too the boy. He still doesn't know who I really am." Neily muttered.
