Chapter 14 – Outrage. ( 2 )
“When are you going to schedule the duel?”
“Two days later, in front of the Drexar Academy arena.”
“What about the notary public?”
“I will prepare it at the Duchy of Lüberg.”
“What weapons can I use?”
“Anything.”
“Are you confident?”
“Don’t get tired of losing. It’s a dog. “
The storm that raged in the classroom pulled everything out and passed by. At the end of the cashew nut, no sound was heard from the surroundings. Even the sound of the birds outside the window seemed to make her feel the pressure and run away.
Cashews went straight to the lecture table. She took Efri’s hand, who was gasping for breath. Faced with countless storms, Epri was trembling violently.
There was no power left of her at all.
“Efri, come down.”
“Huh… “
Effrie, who couldn’t even come down properly, was supported by cashew nuts with all her heart.
Is it because she thinks she has achieved her goal? Despite her overt rebellion, Lilia didn’t react much. She was just doing her own thing. She packs her textbooks into her bag, and puts her class materials.
“Classes are going to be more difficult. Then today’s class ends here.”
As soon as she finished her words, Lilia disappeared from her class.
After escorting Efri to her seat, Cashew ran straight out of the classroom. Her friends, who were unable to approach properly due to the pressure of the cashew nuts, came straight to Effrie. Are you okay, is your leg hurt, Lilia asshole. These words
‘Efri, you’re really popular.’
Lately she’d been hanging out with Efri, a fact her kids had forgotten about because she had no access to her.
She was a little envious. If the owner of this body had been an ordinary person rather than a duke, wouldn’t she have been able to approach her more easily? Also, wouldn’t others be curious and approach them a little more simply?
But anyway, Cashew is the eldest daughter of the Lüberg family. This fact has not changed. She will be forever
Still, hearing the voices of her classmates, she felt her heart sink little by little. Emotions subsided and reason took its place again. As it was, she went to the window. I opened the window wide and the fresh air tickled my cheek.
Looking out the window at the scenery of the academy where nature and buildings harmonize, Cashew thought.
‘It was obviously intended, right?’
As soon as she brought out the ‘duel’ that could legally handle Lilia, she made a dubious remark as if she had been waiting for it, and then started reciting matters related to the duel. It was clear to anyone looking at her that she was expecting it.
‘Should she have been a little calmer too?’
My back hurt. It was clear that she had meant this from the beginning. What she thought was the most obvious way was that she was coming back with a boomerang.
But what has already happened. No matter how much I regretted it, what I had to face did not change. If it’s coming anyway, you should do your best to greet it.
Cashews strengthened her will, reminding her of her own abilities. I have an invincible shield and can absorb all energy. Anyway, even if Lillia brings deadly magic tools, she’ll be able to overcome it.
In that way, Efri decided to return the pain she suffered. She decided to pay back more than that. To amplify it even more. She decided to do so.

As soon as her nominal class time was over, Cashew put her Effrie on her back and headed to her health room.
Cashew, she couldn’t understand why Eph Lee was doing this. Epri is clearly a healer. The wound on his calf wasn’t too big, so he was able to recover enough by stealing a rat’s tail of energy.
So, the cashew nut told Efri exactly as he thought. The answer that came back was even more absurd.
“No. You absolutely have to go to the infirmary. You should apply the medicine too.”
In the end, cashews had no choice but to use both hands and feet at Efri’s reckless request.
She arrived in front of the health room in no time. She opened the door and gave a brief hello to the nurse in charge. She got some ointment from the teacher to apply to her wounds and drew back the curtains on her bed.
After she closed the curtains, she laid Efri on the bed. She squeezed some ointment onto a cotton swab and dabbed it on. He put it on Efri’s calf. On her wound, she rubbed the cotton swab lightly.
Rubbing her wounds must have hurt quite a bit, so Efri made a slight grimace on her face.
“Ah… It stings… “
“So who’s going to hold on so badly? It’s your fault, Efri.”
“Cashew nuts, things you can’t say to the owner… “
“I’m not kidding.”
“… Sorry.”
Epri, who tried to lighten the mood somehow, was blocked by the iron wall of cashew nuts.
But she was not in vain. Her speech was open, and many nonsensical voices came pouring out.
“Did it hurt?”
“Yeah, it hurts a lot.”
“May I ask why you are so stubborn?”
“Because we are friends.”
“Is that too obvious?”
“It’s good because it’s obvious, cashew nuts.”
“Is it.”
It was because he was a friend. She thought it was a simple yet nice statement. At the same time, a question came to mind. If she finds herself in a situation like that, a situation where she has to endure the absurdity to protect her friend. Could it really be?
The answer was simple. You will never do it.
I suddenly remembered what the owner of the SM shop said a few days ago.
‘Never leave with that person. I regret it later.’
Those words may not have been about this situation, but I thought that the meaning was in line.
Efri, who was staring at the cashew nut’s face, suddenly asked a question.
“I have a question for you too.”
“Like what?”
“It will be over in three days anyway. Why couldn’t you stand it?”
“Hmm… “
It made sense. After three days, Lilia will no longer be seen, and the dead will not talk, so the victory will be Epri’s in the end.
Then, as Efri said, you just have to repay him with another part. Or that it suits Epri’s standard of ‘hard play’ and satisfies the desire of Epri, who is a little unsatisfied.
Still, I couldn’t stand it and stood up. I pointed the knife at Lillia. She challenged me to a duel. The reason is that…
“Because we are friends.”
“What, you’re just like me.”
“But no matter how you look at it, this is it.”
Even though I said that, I knew it. Efri’s sacrifice and his own sacrifice were different.
Epri stood up to Lilia even though she didn’t have the strength to stand up to her. Even though she was beaten horribly, she was not broken.
On the other hand, he himself had enough strength. F. Lee asked him to wait, so he just waited without stepping out.
It is respectable for the powerless to stand up to the powerful, but to some extent it was natural for the powerful to stand up for injustice.
The idle talk that lasted for a while ended when the ointment was applied to the last wound. Epri sat down on the bed before he knew it, and said with his characteristic lively smile again.
“Anyway, it’s true that you saved me, so I should be rewarding you, right?”
“Compensation?”
“Huh. If you come back after defeating Lilia… No, I will punish you.”
At the word of punishment, Cashew’s eyes widened.
When a reward is not enough, she is punished. At those sadistic words, Cashews shook her body.
Others praise and praise the achievement, but the person who should receive the award is whipped by the master. At the same time, he disparaged the achievements the owner said. But the reality is that there is nothing to say because it is true in its own way.
Perhaps feeling that the cashew nut was strongly attracted to the word ‘bee’, Efri continued to seduce him.
“Cashew, didn’t you get a little excited when you saw my calf slapped?”
“At all.”
To that, Cashew Nut replied firmly. In fact, Cashew didn’t feel any excitement in the situation. When someone dear to you is beaten, how can you feel sexual desire there? Unless you were a human scum, such a thing was impossible.
But Efri sagged, holding on to cashews by the tail as she tried to brush off her subject.
“Then think again. Really?”
“I really didn’t feel it. I’ll give it a try.”
At her request, the cashews returned her memories countless times.
Efri clearly and effortlessly climbed onto the podium. She had been punished for a long time, and her legs were shaking badly from the beating. Each time her cane fell, her legs shook, her knees bent, and sometimes her attached ankles twisted.
In that situation, Epri swallowed her pain and cried. Her painful cries filled the class.
She had to admit. The scene where Efri gets beaten was so bizarre. At least for cashews, she said.
“Ha… Really… “
The cashew slapped her on the head and she denied that she was human scum. But what can I do? She’s already got her ticket attached.
Seeing her like that, Efri definitely hit her last.
“If you win, I’ll beat you in the calf while scolding you.”
“That’s all… ?”
“Take all your clothes off.”
“And?”
“Secret. Come and win.”
“Oh really… “
If you do this, you will have one more reason to win.
The cashew ended up carving one more unintentional, her purpose to win.
