Will: We gave it to him.

Brad: How did he react to it?

Akira: Kekekeh, he was totally taken aback ♪ He had 'no idea' written all over his face.

Will: But he seemed extremely cautious. Is he really going to come?

Brad: The owner of that sword was a warrior of high integrity. 
He won't run away if his regret lingers on.

Will: He is certainly well-mannered; he hasn't aggressively attacked us or the citizens.

Akira: So, how about you? He's a real pain in the neck.

Brad: I've already taken countermeasures to his swordplay.
However, I'd prefer to warm up before our duel. Come spar with me, either of you.

Akira: Ooh, I'll do it, I'll do it! You haven't been my opponent in a long time. ♪

Will: Please let me help as well. I can't seem to sit still right now.

Brad: Very well. I'll assess your growth.

Akira: Huhuh, don't blame me if you end up tired before your duel.



Oscar: (It's almost midnight, the promised time.)

Enchanted sword: My long-lasting desire... I will have my revenge...

Oscar: (Your wish will not come true. Definitely.)

Enchanted sword: He's here...

Brad: I came on time, but it appears I've made you wait. 

Enchanted sword: You came without a second thought...

Brad: After all, I was the one who sent you a challenge letter. It's common decency to show up.
Oscar, can you hear me?

Oscar: (!! I can, Brad-sama.)

Brad: I can handle this fight by myself. Just sit and watch.

Oscar: (... Understood.)

Enchanted sword: How despicable... vexing...

Brad: Ready when you are.

Enchanted sword: I will let no one interfere... for the sake of my long-lasting desireー
Let's battle!

Brad: Ha!

Enchanted sword: Kh...

Brad: Is that all you've got?

Enchanted sword: Grrr...

Oscar: (Brad-sama is receiving all of the attacks, as expected!)

Enchanted sword: Why... is the trajectory of my sword...!

Brad: It's pointless to try to get faster with Oscar's ability.

Oscar: (That's right! Brad-sama's ability is attracting the sword's trajectory! So, no matter how fast he is, he can handle it!)

Enchanted sword: I... I...!!

Brad: Don't get Oscar involved in your revenge.
I am neither your master, nor is Oscar my vassal.

Oscar: (......)

Brad: He's a friend I can count on and a like-minded hero.

Enchanted sword: Kh......!

Brad: He believes in me and supports me.

I will not betray his trust.

I also have no intention of losing to you!


Enchanted sword: ......!

Oscar: (The sword... broke...!)

Brad: I feel sympathy for the regret that resides in the sword. It's probably agonizing.
That is why I assure you
that I will not betray them. I shall  continue to live up to their trust.

Enchanted sword: ... Don't... go back on... your words...
