Chapter 17: Duel!
Chapter 17: Duel!
I basically stared at Angelina wondering if she had a few screws loose. Did dueling have anything to do with whether someone was engaged or not? I was very confused. How can anyone use a duel as a means of determining love? Wouldn't that mean she would even hate Alissa if Alissa was Able's fiancee? Taking a deep breath I looked at Angelina and said coldly: "If you like someone it doesn't matter what other people say and a duel would never decide anything other than who is stronger but if you wish to get in between Able and any girl he is with now or in the future then I guess I have no problem beating you up a little bit."
"Humph! We will see if you can still talk big after I..." Angelina had no time to finish her sentence as she hastily chanted a spell to put a barrier around her as my fist came flying at her face. "What are you doing? The duel has not started yet!"
"Huh? Didn't you want to fight? So I am fighting. If you do not want to fight then give up now." Did she think this was some kind of tournament? This was basically a street fight. The first to strike would have the upper hand and this was the case since my fist would not stop as I hammered away after the barrier that Angelina was doing her best to keep up. I had wrapped my hands in magic in order to dish out a stronger blow against the barrier. Each time my first landed the barrier would crack and Angelina would have to quickly chant to repair it. She didn't even have time to complain.
"Rei has gotten good at using magic for her second time using it. I never thought of using it in such a way." Able said as he touched his chin watching the fight in front of him.
"Mhm She has the upper hand without much effort. I thought this Angelina was the disciple of the Great Magus Felix, I am somewhat disappointed." Alissa also tossed her two cents in.

"The thing is this little girl never lets her enemy a chance to attack back. I can tell she will never let up until one of them has been beaten. I have to say Angelina has really picked the wrong person to fight with." Another voice came from Able and Alissa's side.
"Great Magus Felix!" Both Alissa and Able yelled out together as they looked at the old man next to them.
"Hoho, so you recognize me. Tell me who is this little girl?" Felix asked as he stroked his beard. He was an old man with long white hair and a long white beard. He wore a blue wizard robe with a long pointy hat with a wide brim.
"That's Rei Lancaster, my fiancee." Able replied.
"She would make a great disciple." Felix replied.
"She wants to be a magic knight. She also has great physical combat skills as you can see."
I could hear the three chatting off to the side but my attention was fully focused on attacking Angelina. I was starting to get annoyed with this barrier. It just kept being regenerated over and over. Letting out a sigh I tried to think of something that could be used to quickly end this and get to bashing That was when it hit me. If she slipped and fell and I pinned her arms down she wouldn't be able to cast magic right? Thinking along these lines, I tossed out my right hand as if I was going to punch again but instead I focused on the ground behind her creating a thin sheet of ice on the ground. I still continued my barrage of attacks afterward pushing Angelina back until
*Slip!*
Angelina fell backward on her butt which caused her to yell out, breaking her concentration and her barrier instantly broke. I took this chance and quickly sat on top of her and pinned her arms down with my knees. I raised my fist and smiled brightly as I said: "Time to finish this. It would be best to give up!"
"Who would give up! Ohff!" I slammed my fist right into her face as hard as I could. Her nose instantly exploded with blood. Half a minute later she yelled out: "I giff up!"
And like that, my first duel with someone ended. "Haha! Not bad, not bad! Angelina, lass, you really picked the wrong person to duel." Felix waved his hand and a green light enveloped Angelina. The once broken nose that was swollen and bleeding profusely was now returned to its normal size and the bleeding stopped. All that was left was the bloodstains from before.
"You are?" I asked, tilting my head to the side. If I recall earlier Able and Alissa yelling out great magus something or another I was too tied up in my fight to really pay attention to what was being said.
"My name is Felix! The Great Magus Felix at your service!" Felix gave me a slight bow. But for some reason, I was getting some serious merlin vibes from this guy. Maybe even Gandalf from that something something rings movie. Anyway, anyone who is the master of this girl must be no good. "Girl how about becoming my disciple!?"
"No!" Instant rejection. As I said, anyone who is the master of this arrogant girl who picks fights with random people for no reason must not be any good. But It seemed my answer had really shocked the Gandalf Merlin wanna be since he stood frozen with a stiff smile on his face. Not paying the master disciple pair anymore, I walked right past them and walked over to Able and Alissa.
"Let's find some clothes. This dress is really hard to move in. I couldn't even lift my leg to kick."
