Chapter 8

ARTHUR'S PoV

"wanna spar with me kid?" asked mayne

In my past life im a king, and it'd be a disgrace for a king to refuse a duel requested by a woman. I may not look like it but i am a true believer of the word gender equality .

Afterall, woman suggested that we men should treat them as the same as we treated men, i approved it so im gonna beat this woman's arse off.

"with pleasure, Lady mayne" i said.

"tsk, calling me a lady hurts my ears, where is your weapon little boy" she said.

"here" then i grabbed the wooden sword my father gave me.

"a wooden sword huh, its a short as my dagger, but dont worry boy ill be fighting you bear-handedly" she said.

"i advise you to not take it easy mayne" my father said.

"he's just 4 years old, what can he do" mayne replied.

"i warned you."

"are you ready little boy?" she asked, and i have no choice but to fight. This is gonna be fun.

I ready myself up, Reinforce myself with mana to strengthen my muscles, i closed my eyes and took a deep breath, slowly exhaling my breath, im also slowly picturing dim lights gathering around me and then supporting my small wooden sword and my small little frail body.

After that i stood up straight, held my head high, closed my legs, stomach in and chest out. And then pointing my sword sword straight, "Im Ready" i said with full confidence.

"hmm, you sure do know your stance little boy. Are you a knight or what?" she said and then she prepared her fist. "im a mage assassin, i may not look like it but i myself can beat a knight" she threatened me but i smirked after that.

"are you not gonna attack and just stand there?" she asked.

"ladies first?" i answered.

"you know your words huh" after saying that she started running in circles making me get stuck in the middle.

She knows what to do, the greatest enemy of a knight is the enemy he cannot see, so she had to go around me in circles for her to be able to strike whenever she wanted too.

But thats a lame old trick, even a child in my world knows what to do when someone does this, first focus all your strength to your feet, after doing that. JUMP! i jumped under her head while spinning my body closely to not lose the momentum of my jump. Then-

I landed infront of her. "good day my lady" i said then dashed infront of her pointing my wooden sword into her neck. "i wo-".

"not so fast" she said and she backed off a little to distance herself by jumping. She brings out her wand.

"hey sto-" Leonte said, but my father said "let the boy do what he wants".

I smiled, She brought her wand out, so i must bring my skills up too.

We're moving in circles waiting for someone to strike first, but since she's wearing a wand i must strike first because if i dont i might be in disadvantage, because she can cast a spell if i dont strike first.

I have a plan in my mind. first i must tumble and then jumped in the air to close our distance, the distance between her and me isnt that far. After approving my plan i dashed and then i tumbled. Yes thats good, our distance is slowly closing.

"oh boy you do not" after saying that she chanted a fire attributedspell "Κύριε, εγκαταλείψτε και συγχωρέστε μας, δώστε μας τη δύναμή σας και σιγήστε τον εχθρό μπροστά μου." And then a ball of fire started spinning around her.

After chanting she pointed her wand at me and the ball of fire followed me, After running around the ball was about to hit me but-

"what?!" i took the little time of her being shock after me dodging her spell via jumping in the ground, and then slowly spinning my body to regain my momentum of jumping. I was able to closed the distance between me and her by that jump and one thing is for sure, i know i will win.

It took a little time to land because of how high i was, i was able to jump as high as the branches of the tress, but the moment i landed, i tripped over. Tsk, i sure cannot jump that high anymore.

"huh? whats this, why did he tripped over?" mayne said in her mind. Is he not used in his body?

"what are you doing little boy?" she asked.

Tsk, this body is so frail and so small compared to my original body. My calculations were wrong because i didnt spare a thought of not having my original body. My plans will work if my body is the same as mine when i was a king.

I guess i have no choice but to close the distance via dashing and running around. I have no choice but to reinforce my feet with mana and focus on my speed. She's a mage afterall. A mage's ferocious enemy are the ones with speed.

After giving a thought of that, i run towards her in a zigzag pattern,Of course she will not able to cast a spell because the moment she was about to cast i will change my movement and head to different course. After a little running.

I heard her clung her teeth as if she was admitting her defeat already.

I smirked, and then dashed towards her back, she spun her body around and then casted a fire spell "Εκρηξη" at my direction, i wasnt able to dodge it because of how close our distance was.

"HEY MAYNE WHAT WAS THAT?!" Arwin shouted, he though it hit me but it didnt.

But the moment her spell reached me, my survival instincts came into surface of my mind.

I blocked the spell by reinforcing my sword with all the strength and mana i can gather, leaving my sword get burnt into noting but ashes, luckily i was unharmed.

"s-sorry" she apologized and then fell kneeling into the ground.

Everyone was shock by what just happened but my father stood up and then

"Thats a good job arthur" father said while approaching me.

"yeah you beat the shit out of mayne ." said arwin.

"Wordings Arwin" my mother replied.

"you'r a son of an auzwick after all dear boy Arthur." mayne stood up and then patted my head.

"hear let me heal you." mother gently grabs mayne's hand and the treated the her wound. Its a little burnt area it wont hurt you but it sure will sting.

Where did that wound came from? did i slashed it? No i didn't thats impossible a mere wooden sword wouldn't even make a scratch so burning her hands is nothing but a mere joke. All i know is that i blocked her spell.

My dad seemed to notice my whereabouts so he spoke.

"you're asking yourself why mayne got burnt area when youre just using a wooden sword?" said father, "well the moment you blocked it your sword manages to knockback the spell. I didn't know how you did it but maybe it was your fighting spirit that did it." he explained.

I nodded to my father . but after nodding, i started to feel dizzy again. My surrounding are shaking and i cant hear them anymore.

And then after that, i lost conscoiusness.
