　They march across the Rhine.

　The Sults and others who came with them were familiar with the geography of the area and had well prepared maps.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, they were moving their forces with the expectation of where they would fight against the Risolute Kingdom's army.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Finally, the opponent's army came into view.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was then.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The figures of many flying dragons were seen in the sky, and on the backs of these dragons were knights in armor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They were the dragon knights, the pride of the Kingdom of Risorthe.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There were about 300 dragon knights when we fought last time, and I guess there are more than that now.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It must mean that they still had some strength left.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And the strength of those who ride the flying dragon is also different.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There was also a dragon knight who seemed to be the head of the family, which was not the case when I saw him before.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, the most eye-catching among them was the dragon knight at the front.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He was riding on a flying dragon that was much bigger than other flying dragons, and there were dragon knights around him as if protecting him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　What's more.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Riding on the back of the big flying dragon was a beautiful woman.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She was still young, probably around 20 years old.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She seemed to be wearing her beautiful blonde hair in a bun on the back of her head, and the way her hair was swaying in the wind looked very pretty.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And she is wearing a very flashy golden armor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Moreover, the armor seems to have been made for a woman.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Aside from the upper body that covered her body, the lower body was in the form of a skirt and boots that covered up to her shins.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, her beautiful raw legs were exposed in the absolute area.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　What is that?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It's so s*xy you can almost see it. .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Could that be Olivia the Dragon Princess?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The blue saint Mirialia in the sky cemetery is a famous woman, and this dragon princess Olivia is said to be as famous as her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is said that she is the most loved by dragons, and that she has all the flying dragons necessary for a dragon knight.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, this is probably a story spread by the kingdom of Risolute.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, the story of a beautiful and pretty woman in golden armor leading a squad of the strongest dragon knights through the battlefield is said to be popular in recent bards' songs.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Olivia looks at me and speaks.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Her voice, like that of a diva in an opera, seemed to have a magical power that seemed to penetrate into me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But it took me a while to understand what she said.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I challenge you to a duel before the gods.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She also asked me to witness the duel as a shield of God.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was completely unexpected.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I had already assumed that the battle between the forces of Barca and those of the Kingdom of Resolute would take place immediately after they had spoken to each other.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I had no idea that I would be challenged to a duel.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I quickly regained my composure and examined what she had said.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　First of all, I needed to remember what this "duel before the gods" was all about.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I know that in this world there is a way to make things black and white in a duel.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Once, when I was head of the knightly house of Barca, I had a dispute with a neighboring knightly house, the Garneths.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When we built the Kyle Dam, we had a dispute with our neighbor about water rights, and a young knight named Ruffin, the son of the head of the Garnes family, came from the Garnes family to discuss the matter.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Ruffin asked for Lilina, which led Barca to fight against the Garnes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, the battle ended quickly with a quick attack by our cavalry, but later Carlos was angry with us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He told me something at that time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In such a case, you should duel to settle the matter.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So, later on, I had looked up the method of dueling.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And I learned that there is a manner of dueling, and that there is a special kind of duel called the duel in front of the god.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Unlike ordinary dueling, the duel in front of God has a custom to have a witness sent to the church to swear an oath to God.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Although there have been few cases in the past, I was told that it is sometimes used as a method to solve a big problem.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, it is okay to say no, isn't it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It would not be a fair judge when I, the leader of the Barka army, am the notary.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It would be a travesty.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I thought so, and was about to refuse when my brother Byte spoke up.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I'll get it, and you can be the judge.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He then asked Olivia to accept his body on the condition that if the Bite Brothers won this duel, he would take hers.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hey, wait a minute, Brother Bite! Why are we talking about this all of a sudden? I mean, he's already married, isn't he?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Huh?　What are you talking about, Ars? There's no rule that says you can only have one wife. There's nothing wrong with that."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Hmmm... I guess it's a difference in values.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　My brother Barthes was married to the Barthes family when they took control of part of the old Uruk territory.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He asked an old knight named Zitan, the head of the Knight of Arms territory near the Fox Valley, to marry the daughter of a local and influential family in order to rule the land.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　By marrying a woman from a family that was married to both the Uruks and the Xillians, my brother Bight, who was only knighted by me, a peasant-turned-knight, was able to successfully hold his lands together.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And then we had a child, a son with the right of inheritance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There is no problem if such a Bight brother has another woman.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In this area, nobles and knights always have an inheritance ceremony with married women and have a child with the right of inheritance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　No matter how much they play with other women, even if they have a child with another woman, it will not cause a family commotion if they do not have the right of succession.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, it is said that there are those who have mistresses elsewhere rather casually.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is also natural for a man to have more than one wife, even if they are not his mistresses.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After all, in a time of continuous war, one never knows who will be gone at any time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The small number of children with the right of succession is also a danger.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, when an eldest son is born, he often marries another wife and hopes for a new child.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In this respect, there is no particular problem for a Baito brother to seek for Olivia the Dragon Princess.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Moreover, when I think about it calmly, I am beginning to feel that the proposal made by Mr. Byte is quite sharp and to the point.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Because, the other party cannot possibly refuse this proposal.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At any rate, the Royal Army of Resolute, which has the Dragon Knight Unit, originally called the strongest unit, went out of its way to request a duel before the gods, a battle that does not involve the use of an army.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That is to say, the other party has some reason to want to settle this battle in a duel.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If we add to their request, they will not refuse so easily.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Also, the fact that it was Olivia who made the request seems to be a good point.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Her presence is not small for the Kingdom of Resolute.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is because she was the one whom the Kingdom of Resolute used to the utmost in order to revive itself after the alliance of the three noblemen dragged her down from the position of the supreme nobleman.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She is the woman most loved by the flying dragons in history, the woman who is treated as the goddess of victory as the new general of the Dragon Knight Corps.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If we can draw her to us through a duel, we can damage the Kingdom of Resolute that much more.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So we have little reason to refuse this duel.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　While I talked a little with my brother Byte, I gathered my thoughts and made a decision.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Olivia the Dragon Princess, I accept your offer. I promise you that Ars Valka, the Shield of the Gods, will witness the duel and judge it fairly. The one who will be on Barka's side in the duel before the gods will be Bait van Barthe here. You will be on the side of the Kingdom of Risorthe, is that correct?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"......Yes, yes. Oh, um, ......."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Okay. We are in agreement. Now, let's play the game of questions. Both of you, please step forward.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It seems that the other side is also perplexed by the sudden demand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, assuming that they agreed on the grounds that they had given an ambiguous reply, they quickly decided to start the duel.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thus, the duel for marriage between the dragon princess Olivia and her brother Bight was to take place.
