Happy Reading~
===========
"Tch, I knew this wouldn't work." Eric cursed softly, unable to contain his annoyance.
Supposedly, he have expected that I would lose in this place.
But apparently, what he thought was wrong.
In his entire life, he never once thought I would be this strong.
Normally, the last time we fought, I held back a bit.
The reason is clear, it's because I don't want to kill him.
Although, I almost gave him permanent injuries.
Luckily, he managed to heal himself.
Otherwise, I don't know what to do.
"Stop this, I'm in a bad mood. I don't want to hurt anyone, including all of you." I said slowly, without showing the slightest emotion on my face.
Right now, I'm not okay.
If anyone dares to bother me, I won't hesitate to beat them up.
Still, I know my limits.
The last time I fought, it was the day this guy broke his arm.
Since that day, my father, he told me to restrain myself.
Otherwise, he will not hesitate to punish me.
Of course, I can only agree with what he said.
In the end, my father, he was the strongest.
Therefore, there is nothing I can do.
"Never. Until I can achieve my goal, I will never back down." Eric answered confidently, not intending to back down.
Actually, I don't understand what he wants.
If he had told me of his intentions, I might have agreed.
Whatever it was, it was impossible for Eric to reveal his intentions.
Ultimately, in his eyes, I was his enemy.
At the same time, a rival he must eliminate.
As long as he can defeat me, he will be able to continue to be on the protagonist's side.
"Heh... Fine, you forced me. Don't blame me if you die, I won't be responsible." suddenly, I, instinctively started throwing my wooden sword right at Eric.
Luckily, Eric, he managed to avoid the wooden sword.
Otherwise, he would probably be lying on the ground.
But yeah, when his gaze turned back to me again.
I immediately hit his chin, without letting him react.
"W-What happened?" Eric asked, trying to figure out what was going on.
From his perspective, what I did didn't make sense.
Even, he alone wouldn't be able to do something like that.
Still, he didn't know one thing.
Namely, I, have taken back my wooden sword.
Finally, I, without a shred of mercy.
Started beating him, using the wooden sword that was in my hand.
Seen, Eric, he involuntarily shows his pained groan.
Even so, he did not show the slightest intention of backing down.
In fact, he increasingly showed his determination.
For some reason, this just made me want to beat him up even more.
It felt, like he was treating me like a pest.
'This gaze... Just like the one shown by that man...!' I thought to myself, remembering my meeting with the messenger.
The gaze he showed, looked exactly like the one I saw last time.
*Thump!-* *Thump!-* *Thump!-*
I continued to beat Eric, who knows how long.
To be sure, I have spent more than a minute.
Until, a scream was heard from a distance.
"Noah! Stop it! He's almost dead!"
'Ash? Why is he here?' I asked myself, not understanding what was happening.
Supposedly, this guy, he was training with his father.
But why, why is he in my yard?
'Could it be...!' as if realizing what was happening, I, finally understood one thing.
Namely, this man, he had planned all of this.
From the start, he had absolutely no intention of beating me.
Instead, he used himself to drive me away from my friends.
