章節 83: RELATIONSHIP WITH MY BROTHER

"... You win."

I curved my lips up after hearing those words. To be honest, I felt a bit excited after this fight.

Even though I was suppressing my cultivation to the fourth layer, the truth is that I went all out. In fact, I even used some techniques I was not planning to use.

[As expected of a hero, huh.] I chuckled inwardly. I was truly surprised by this girl's talent. I counted ten different breakthroughs in just one fight. I could only sigh in envy facing such a beloved of the world.

Her swordsmanship advanced more than three levels, and her comprehension of magic leaped to the grandmaster level. Moreover, she grasped a little bit of the laws.

Facing such a level of talent, even I entertained the thought of killing her. However, each time I showed the slightest killing intent, I felt the world's consciousness focusing on me. I would have to pay a very heavy price if I wanted to kill her.

Fortunately, I have a better way to deal with her.

"Many thanks for your advice, miss Rose." I smiled.

"... I'm the one who must thank you." Rose said with a complicated expression. "I never thought that swordsmanship could be so beautiful."

"... If you want, we can talk about our sword arts later."

"Really!?" Rose put on an excited expression and almost jumped towards me, but she then realized that her behavior was unbecoming and blushed.

"Of course." I smiled. "I never saw someone with so much talent with the sword as you. To be honest, I felt a bit envious."

"... Don't jest, I'm nothing compared to you. I truly think that your sword is very beautiful." Rose put on an embarrassed expression.

"Then, are we friends?"

Rose hesitated slightly. "Don't you mind that I'm a commoner? You are a prince after all."

"Of course not." I denied it firmly. "To be honest, I don't care much about nobles or commoners. Moreover, my prince's identity is not so great as you think." I smiled wryly.

Rose stared at me with a stunned expression before making a soft smile. "You are different than the other princes." She said.

I was more than a bit surprised. "You know my brothers?"

"... It was not a good experience. I don't want to talk about it."

Damn, now I understand why this girl had so much animosity against me.

Is it the patron where a prince harms the hero and then the hero swears revenge against the imperial family? In the end, we two would end facing each other as bitter enemies.

But there is something wrong with this. My relationship with my brothers is very bad. If the world wants to use the hero to destroy me, then this is not a good plan.

Is there something I'm missing?

At that moment, a woman's voice interrupted my thoughts.

"... You two, how long are you going to continue flirting?!"

We then remembered that we were not alone.

All the students were looking at us as if we were monsters. Some of them could not close their mouths after seeing a fight at such a high level.
