　I would not fight him again if I could help it.

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

"Good. It was his choice not to treat him. That's all he did. I owe you an apology. Kurando was an irreplaceable friend to me. Therefore, I have given you a warm feeling that you may not agree with. I'm sorry."

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

"No problem. Kurando-sama was a victim too.
