The echo that came through the wooden wall of the player's waiting room somehow sounded similar to the sound of the gnomes groaning.
But that didn't bother him much.
Compared to the roars of the audience who were too excited every five minutes, this was close to whispering.
"Hah, can you hear that scream? I think it's louder than yesterday. Everyone must be really excited."
Izek was not interested in whether the crowd, sitting in the stands and howling like beasts, were excited or not.
There was only one person he thought about. He just wanted to hurry up, finish everything and run and hug them.
"Andymion, stop chattering and wipe it clean."
"Are you nervous?"
Since when did he stop listening to him like this?
With such thoughts in his head, Izek moved his cleanly tied handkerchief back close to the sword handle.
Meanwhile, Andymion chatted brightly without stopping as he wiped.
"I guarantee you that you will win today without any problems. And one day, after I become a paladin, I will definitely participate in this competition and take over the honour of respect."
"Why are you here?"
"What? As your trainee, I have to support you until the end... Did I do something wrong?"
"Suddenly, I thought your existence itself was wrong."
"You're too much, sir. Please don't take it out on me like that because you're annoyed that you can't meet your wife."
It was a very cheeky response, but Izek fell into agony for a while instead of getting angry.
Since when did he become so sly?
"Are you in puberty?"
"...no, I'm sorry. I'm just jealous."
"Jealous?"
"So after you win today, my lady will smile brightly and be happy, right? But I don't know if I'll be able to find someone to do so when I become like you. To be honest, it's hard for me to talk to young ladies.... ."
Andymion, sighed in a serious tone.
Of course, Izek had no heart to listen to his trainee's love concerns.
Fortunately, the knock rang just in time.
"Sir Izek, someone's here for you."
It was news that made his ears prick up.
Visiting him with the match just around the corner, he couldn't believe she did such a cute thing....?
"Oh, it's just her."
To make matters worse, Izek, who left the waiting room in an excited mood even though he didn't show it off because of his trainee, soon couldn't hide his disappointment.
"Iz."
She was sitting there nervously biting her lips. The reason his excitement died was that this wasn't the blonde beauty he'd been expecting.
"Iz, wait a minute...!"
He didn't think there would be a very pleasant conversation, but Freya hurriedly grabbed him, turning straight away.
As she literally held his arm and hung on, Izek was even more annoyed.
"Let go of me."
"I know you're mad. But I have something very important to tell you right now...."
