Even if you succeed in jobless reincarnation and time magic, you must live life to the fullest.

I couldn't help but ask.

"As far as I know, no."

Rachel Rudd knows Alice's strength better than I do.

In Rajirud's view, Alice did not possess any additional skills that he was unaware of.

He has witnessed all of Alice's growth so far.

"Is this so..."

I couldn't help but ponder.

Is there something Alice wants me to agree to?

If so, wouldn't it be better to grant her request?

Think so.

“Rigid, could you perhaps…”

"No."

Rachel Rudd refused without hesitation.

"Alice is a true warrior now, and warriors must be given their all."

Raji Rudd had a strong insistence on dignity.

It was like this in the past.

Children should be protected.

Soldiers deserve respect.

That's what he thought, and that's what he did.

In his eyes, Alice was now a true warrior.

Therefore, he will do his best to meet Alice's challenge.

……

To be honest, I'm a little worried.

Rachel Rudd is actually going all out for Alice...

I have a feeling that Alice will be beaten pretty badly.

When I was thinking that...

But Rachel Rudd said...

“Rudeus, Alice is now certainly qualified to fight me at full strength.”

"Eh?"

"In other words, if I don't go all out, I might actually lose to Alice."

"…Are you kidding me?"

Hey Hey hey.

Rijrud's strength is not as simple as it seems.

With Rachel Rudd as her opponent, Alice actually has a chance of winning?

Just over a year ago.

Alice is only a high-level swordsman, right?

It's impossible no matter how you think about it.

……

No.

If we take Kino as a reference.

Such a pace of progress is reasonable.

……

all in all.

Time quickly came to the next day.

We found a wasteland outside the city to use as the battlefield.

Rijkaard holding a trident.

And Alice, fully armed.

Fully armed in the true sense.

At this moment, Alice was carrying a total of eight swords on her back!

It could be said that its entire body was covered with blades.

Hey Hey hey……

Are you a practitioner of the Eight-Cut Style?

I remember Killer Bee from Naruto also fought with eight swords at once.

But he's a Jinchūriki, you know?

Does an octopus reside inside your body?

However, Alice wasn't trying to be funny at all.

She carefully moved her wrists and ankles, her gaze fixed steadily on Rachel Rudd, while lowering her body.

"can we start?"

"Richard asked."

"Rudius! You're the one to call 'start'!"

As Alice spoke, she reached out and gripped the hilt of her sword.

"Then, my fire magic explosion is the signal to begin."

Seeing how serious they both looked, I couldn't help but feel nervous too.

He conjured a fireball without chanting and raised it above his head.

Then launch it!

The fireball soared upwards like fireworks.

finally.

When a certain altitude is reached.

It exploded with a loud bang.

"boom--"

Just as the fireball exploded.

Alice disappeared.

"Qiangqiang-"

Rachel Rudd swung her trident quickly, as if blocking something.

I looked closely and saw that they were actually two swords.

This is a technique from the Kitakami-ryu school.

It looks like he's throwing the sword in despair, but he's actually infused it with magic, making it incredibly powerful.

Alice used this as a feint.

Just as Rajirud parried the sword, Alice's figure rapidly closed in.

Then he unleashed the advanced secret technique of the Sword God Style: Silent Katana.

With Alice's strength, she could have used the Blade of Light long ago.

But she hadn't studied it.

If she had studied it, the power of that attack would probably have been even greater.

"Shh!"

Alice leaped low into the air, then used the momentum of her fall to swing the sword downwards.

"clang--"

This was a heavy and swift blow.

Rachel Rudd quickly held the trident horizontally to block the attack.

But the ground beneath his feet cracked as a result.

"It's not over yet!"

Alice was in mid-air.

The point where the sword and the trident meet is the relay point.

His body twisted in mid-air.

then.

He kicked Rachel Rudd in the chest!

75. Defeat

The battle between the two became exceptionally intense from the very beginning.

With my dynamic vision, I could only barely make out two shadows, one red and one green, jumping back and forth.
