Which magic can be used to achieve an overwhelming victory?

　Belamus thought about it and came up with an answer that it would be better to use some fancy magic here. 　

　The weapon Beld carried was a wooden sword. He didn't bother to bring one to battle, so it was improvised. It was slightly rough-hewn for that reason.

　Berd was one of the best in Astraeus' household.
　I never dreamed that I would lose to this child.

　Berd holds his wooden sword ready to see how Bellamus fares.

"Will you let us have the lead? Be my guest.

　With that, Bellamus said, he would use magic.

"Giant Stamp.

　Just as Bellamus said this, a rock shaped like a foot appeared above his head.

　The rock grew larger and larger, becoming about two-thirds the size of the dueling grounds.

　Beld watched the scene with a stunned expression on his face.

　Bellamus stepped back and slammed his huge rock leg into the ground as hard as he could.

　Thud-ohhhh!

　There was a roar and the ground shook loudly.
　A rock falls inches in front of the verd.

　In his haste to get away, Berd looks like he's on the verge of a mad scramble.

'Na...... na......'

　It's too much, I can't speak, and I can't even move.
　I just stared at the huge rock leg in a cold sweat, stunned .

　Belamus moved quickly and used the Ride Sword's magic.
　. and thrust it at Berd's neck .

You're going down.

　I told him so .

　Beld stared at Bellamus with stunned eyes, and then, as if to squeeze out, said, ''I'm here,'' and admitted his defeat .

''Then you may return to Count Astraeus' estate as soon as possible, as promised.

　Right after Bellamus said that, Berd looked at the fans behind him.

　I honestly had no idea what to expect when I lost the duel.

　Are we just going to go home quietly now?　Or do you renege on your promise?　Berd hesitated, often.

　He thinks for a moment, and then he comes to a decision.

Okay, all right. I'll leave the forest today. I swear I will never come to your town again.

　Beld stood up, trembling a little, and walked away from the dueling grounds .



　.



Hey, Mr. Berd. What do we do?　Are you really going to walk away?　Or do you want to pretend to walk away and take them by surprise?

　A fan asked Berd to walk away.

...... walk away.
Are you sure?
You saw it. You saw what Master Bellamus did. Clearly, it's off the charts and off the charts magic.
Yeah, that's right.
Even I couldn't get a hand or foot in this ...... when the man himself is that strong, it's almost impossible to catch him.
I suppose you're right, but will you be able to convince the Count?　If I tell them it was impossible, they'll kill you, won't they?
I had no choice. It would be better for me alone to bear the blame than to send my men to the brink of death for no reason.
You're very nice.
It's a natural thing for a commander to do. I'll be ready to go home as soon as possible.

　After preparing to leave, Beld and the others went back to the county.

Will those humans keep their word and leave the forest?

　Medina asked Vellums.

'I will leave. He had the eyes of a broken man. I think he understands that you can't take me away.
'If Master Bellamus says so, it must be true.
Just ...... those men will leave, though I don't know if Count Astraeus will give up on them.

　If they don't attack me anymore, it will be less of a hassle, but ......, Vellums thought as he stared a little further away .
