บท 237: The Whole City Is Watching

Watson looked at Elvira, who had short red hair and wore heavy armor with a strange expression.

"Yes, I am serious about having a duel with you! Even though you are a child and I should not be bullying you as a knight, it is related to Torch Town's glory. Please forgive me for refusing to back down."

Elvira raised her arm, holding the blade directed at Watson's nose.

People around her became silent when they heard her comments, including Sylvan and Antonio, who gazed at her with sympathy and admiration—Sylvan, in particular. 

He had faced Watson once before on Dragonspine Snow Mountain, but he had lost. Watson was merely a gold-tier warrior and mage at the time, but he had entered the platinum tier since then; even he had no idea how powerful Watson had become.
