Chapter 42 – Villager A Dedicates Victory:-

With this, the duel event has come to an end.
The other arcs will probably not give this much fulfilment as the duelling chapters. But they have their own charm.
I’ll take a short break of 1 week, and after that, there will be a double release in celebration of the Kofi goal completion. Both of them will be the POV on the results of the duel. Until then enjoy these chapters.
(´^ω^)ノ
P.S- Sorry for the inconvenience folks, enjoy the chapter.

“Imp-Impossible…!”

The crown prince eyes widened as if he could not understand what was happening.

Then, when he managed to get back on, he complained to me about something that made no sense to me.

“eh, eii (TL:- getting up noise). Don’t rely on the power of dubious magic tools! Fight openly with swords and magical powers without doing cowardly things.”
“Pfft. Your Highness, what are you talking about? The first rule we agreed on is that anything goes, right? And if I’m a coward, aren’t Your Highnesses, and others are cowards for trying to win with 5 to 1 advantage?”

When I said 5 to 1, the Crown Prince bit his lips with regret.

“Furthermore, what about trying to force Anastasia to admit her false charges by surrounding her with five, no six people, while in a powerful position as the Crown Prince? Anastasia-sama was Your Highness’s fiancée, and because of your status, she couldn’t go against you. If you don’t call this cowardice, what can you call it?”

“That’s, she was…”

The crown prince mumbles, apparently realizing that he was wrong.

“She was? What did Anastasia-sama do? She didn’t do anything, did she? These are all accusations with no evidence! If you’re going to say that, what about the fact that you kicked out Anastasia-sama, who had made so many things for you people at the last minute, the day before the festival? Besides, there was so much difference in the content and quality of the displays that it was obvious how much of it was Anastasia-sama’s work, you know?”
“That woman! to Amy!”

The crown prince raised his voice when I berated him.

“Ah, not again. Please don’t give me any unsightly excuses. Anastasia-sama didn’t harass Amy-sama. She was just giving her a legitimate complaint! Moreover, Anastasia-sama, the duchess, took the trouble to lecture Amy-sama, the baroness.”

The Crown Prince glared at me in frustration as I said that.

“You know what? If you, the next king, is like this, the Kingdom will get destroyed. The first to be killed will be us, commoners! You, The crown prince, should know what it means to marry Anastasia-sama!”
“Sh-Shut up!”
“If you turned away the Duke of Ramslett’s support, then a civil war only wait for us. Even though it was an engagement to prevent that from happening, you went on poking your head over one girl!”

The crown prince turned red and looked down, then looked up and glared at me as if he had made up his mind.

“Shut up! What a mere commoner with no responsibility knows! As a royal family! As a crown prince! I was always expected to do my part! No one ever saw me for who I was! It’s the same with that woman. I am always being forced to be the crown prince, the next king, and so on!”
“Eh, is that so? It was hard.”

I gave him a barbed answer. However, the Crown Prince didn’t seem to mind and continued to spout his reasoning.

“But Amy was different. She saw me for who I was, even though I hadn’t said a word! She told me that it was okay to be me, that it was okay to be who I was! She smiled at me! What I liked, what food I liked, where I liked to go as if she knew it all! She was thinking the same thing even though I hadn’t said anything! That’s right. She’s the one! That’s why! That’s why!”

I see. Amy, who is familiar with the setting of the crown prince, has played accordingly.

That’s why he blindly fell in love with Amy, who affirmed him unconditionally.

But you know what? Isn’t that what you want from a mother, not from a lover?

“Okay, Okay. But did you know how much Anastasia has killed herself and done everything for you? And yet you’re so selfish and self-centred like a little kid who thinks he’s saying something good but has nothing to say!”
“Shut up! I!”

The crown prince face turned bright red, and he yells.

“What is it? Did it stabbed so badly that you can’t even argue?”
“Shut up! What do you know when you’re a commoner with no responsibilities! I didn’t want to born in a royal family!”
“Huh? So you’re saying you wish you were born a commoner?”
“It must be so much easier to live like a commoner, protected and guided by us royalty. And you get to be with the woman you love!”

Even I got pissed off from this outburst. I’m aware that I’ve said some pretty outrageous things until now, but I couldn’t take it anymore, and without thinking about breaking it down, I just said it back out of emotion.

“That’s bullshit! What makes being a commoner easy! Can you work every day from the age of eight years old? Hard physical labour, covered in filth and stench! And what you earn is only 1,000 cents a day doing it! Do you have any idea how we feel when we’re starving on a few scraggly vegetables, a handful of dried meat, and a bit of blanched, hard, unchewable bread? Don’t be so naive!”
“Ugh. Shut up! You lowly commoner! Shut up!”
“Hmph. And now you’re going to use your status as a shield to order me around? Before that, do you remember what you said?”

When I say that back to him, he glares at me with hateful eyes with a bright red face.

“generally. If you want to be a commoner so badly, why don’t you elope with Amy-sama? Then you can live as a commoner, right?”
“Wha! do something like that!”

Saying that the Crown Prince broke down. Apparently, he was not prepared to go that far.

He is so spoiled that it’s repulsive.

I sighed deeply and said in an admonishing tone.

“If you can’t even do that, then Your Highness will be dealing with Anastasia-sama. It may be too late, though.”

Then the crown prince face turned red, and he shouted, tears welling up in his eyes.

“Ugh, shut up! Shut up! Someone like you! to someone like you!”

Then the crown prince chanted oversized flame magic.

This is probably the extreme flame magic that the Crown Prince used at the end of the game to cleave the whole area together.

It has helped me a lot in the game, but it’s not the kind of magic one should use in a place like this. If he uses this kind of magic here, it would cause a lot of damage to the judges and the audience.

It seems the Crown Prince is so fixated on winning that he has forgotten about such things. In the first place, at the current level, the crown prince should not be able to use it yet.

“Y-Your Highness! That magic is still too much for His Highness!”

The teachers, who were watching the duel, tried to stop him, but the Crown Prince didn’t seem to listen.

“To make Amy win, I will! I will!”

No, that’s not what I was talking about, I was the one who went off topic and gave a lecture, but the purpose of this was to ask you to apologize to the Dukes of Ramslet in the first place.

As I looked at him with that in mind, the crown prince’s flame magic went out of control as expected.

“His Highness!”

Anastasia hurriedly tried to deploy her ice magic, but I stopped her with a gesture. Then, I cast the wind magic without chanting and blew up the flame magic of His Highness into the sky.

Phew, thank God this training ground is outdoors.

And the crown prince then passed out due to the depletion of his magical power.

“Alle … n?”

I hear Anastasia’s confused voice, but instead of answering her, I put my dagger to the crown prince’s neck and stare at the witness.

“His, His Highness Karlheinz is unable to fight. Therefore, it’s Allen’s victory.”

When I bowed and grinned at Amy. She gave me a wry look and then fell to her knees.

I turned back and walked over to Anastasia, then knelt.

“I dedicate this victory to Anastasia-sama.”
“Tha-Thank you, but more than that.”

Anastasia glanced over at the crown prince with a worried expression on her face.

“It’s okay. I didn’t kill anyone. His Highness just used up all his magic power, so he shouldn’t be in any danger of death. The magic flames that went out of control were all blown upwards by my wind magic, so there should be few injuries. I’m sure he’ll wake up after he sleeps for a while and recovers his magic power.”
“Is, is that so.”

Anastasia looked relieved when she heard that. Even at a time like this she can’t help but think about her kingdom.

But how did that stupid Crown Prince fall for that woman when he had such a wonderful fiancée?

Ah, I see. Because he is an idiot.

But this would be the end of what I could do. Now that I’ve beaten the Crown Prince in a duel, the powerful nobles won’t leave me alone.

In addition, I lost my temper and lashed out at him.

I’d like them to at least forgive me from execution …

“Well then, Anastasia-sama, I’ll be going now. Thank you very much for everything. And thank you, Margaret-sama and Isabella-sama. It’s a little regrettable, but I’ll leave you now.”
“Hey, Allen!”

When I said goodbye, I headed back to my room in the dorm.
