It was sometime during Lilith and Ethan's second semester of their fourth year at the academy.

Clang, clang, claaang!!

Two swords tore through the air mercilessly, slashing at each other, while a single blade responded with calm precision.

Sparks erupted as the weapons collided head-on, clashing several times per second.

‘I can’t even follow them with my eyes anymore.’

Ethan and Harold’s sparring had become so familiar it felt like part of daily life.

It was a match between a late-stage Sword Expert and a Sword Master.

Even as a spectator, the tension was palpable.

‘I wonder if it felt like this when the Hero or Natalie fought Harold last year.’

The Hero was already rumored to be Sword Master-level, and Natalie’s rapier was so fast that people said her speed surpassed even the Hero’s.@@novelbin@@

As for Karaham, his sword was so slow that he probably never fought like this.

“Yeah! Don’t give him an opening! Keep pushing, Ethan!”

“Haa, haa… HRAAAAH!!”

‘Looking at him like this, he really does seem to fight as well as the Hero.’

Well, in this world, the Hero had picked up so many lucky encounters and events that he was even stronger than in the original story.

But at this point, Ethan might actually put up a decent fight against the Hero from the original.
