Chapter 3

The sight of the battle for the qualification in the subjugation squad in Vontigre Kingdom has started.The 'Ralph' Vice commander were sitting ata the side of the battle space.She looks at the contestants with bored eye.She even intends to sleep but were blocked by her escort,saying that it will drop her reputation.

"Seriously!Is there anyone thats really worthy enough in this town!"she snapped.

"But Miss Valiere,this is a direct order from His Majesty to find one adventurer to join the subjugation squad."her escort start talking.

"Cant we just beat up those dragon?Im sure the Walfred's daughter would be enough to succeed that."

"But all three daughter of Walfred family are attending school."

"Then!Why dont use all the 'Ralph' members!"

"The other 'Ralph' members are at the Empire right now."

Valiere finally let a big sigh like she had lost all hope.

Right now its a match between a man with a muscular body and a young man around 14-years old.Valiere look at the young man.It seem like they are having a conversation.

The man with his muscular body suddenly swing his claymore towards the young man.Even though far away,she could feel the power of the claymore the muscular man swing.

The young man wouldnt have a chance to dodge the attack.

It was until that she freezed,stooping in her place.

The match has ended,with the young man wins.

"What....what just happened?"she ask.

"E....even I couldnt see what just happened."

Her eyes started moving finding the muscular man.Only to find him lying on the ground unconscious,with his claymore splattered.His legs also had bent into wrong direction.

"Im...impossible.Just what had happened!?Even my eyes cant see his movement."she mutters.

"Miss Valiere,looks like there are still someone who might picked your interest."her escort said so.

"Thats right.Nana,give me a paper."

Her escort Nana went to the back for a while before returns with paper and ink.

*************

From afternoon comes the evening.Ikky had win three consecutives win in his match.All of his opponent were someone who comes from the Empire.He doesnt know the reason people of Empire desires to help the kingdom.

What Ikky know right now is he should have already winning the match.Why does the judges looked really restless?Such thought appears in his mind.Suddenly,a knight came and give him a letter before telling him to go rest.

Ikky just taken the letter and move out of the battle space.Inside the waiting room,he opened the letter the knight gave him.

**************

After wrote the note,Valiere sent the letter by her escort to the young boy who is still standing at the centre of battle space even though he should have been the winner.She make a grin before leaving the site and entered a tent.

"Miss Valiere,are you sure with this decision?"Nana ask her.

"Yes.If he passes this special test,I might invite him to join the 'Ralph' no matter what."

Valiere opened a wooden case with an encryption wrote on it.A longsword with a dragon-like decorated scabbard appeared.The hilt of the sword has a magic crystal embended on it and a crest of royal family could be seen.
