"Elemental Hero" (The Rising of the Shield Hero X Male Reader)

Royal Cheaters

*Y/N's POV*

I was in the castle, they were throwing a party for us beating the Wave. Naofumi was sitting near a window, I was standing against a wall, leaning against it. I wasn't fully recovered from the Wave, but I was good enough to walk around. The dark element took a lot out of me. 

Motoyasu: "Naofumi..."

I see Motoyasu throw a glove at Naofumi.

Motoyasu: "Duel me. I heard that Raphtalia-chan's your slave."

Naofumi: "And what if she is?"

Motoyasu: "You..."

Y/N: "You know... Slaves are legal here."

Motoyasu: "You're siding with him?! You both should know it's not okay to enslave others!"

Y/N: "Never said it was okay to do. But, who cares. What's done is done."

Motoyasu: "But--"

Y/N: "We're heroes from another world, don't wanna hear it."

Myne: "The only reason Inori is still with him, is because he brain washed her with those damned powers."

Y/N: "What? Didn't know I could do that."

Motoyasu: "Is that true?!"

Y/N: "No it isn't, but you aren't going to believe me."

He pointed his spear in between me and Naofumi.

Motoyasu: "Fight me!"

Y/N: "Who?"

Motoyasu: "Both of you! If I win, free Raphtalia-chan, and Inori-chan. Inori will no longer be in your party."

Naofumi: "And what if we win?"

Motoyasu: "Then... you both can keep things as they are."

Naofumi began walking away.

Naofumi: "Ridiculous."

Y/N: "Okay, I'm in."

Inori: "Y/N?"

Y/N: "Knowing you fucks, you're gonna make Naofumi duel. So how about we make this fair? Naofumi and I, against you three heroes."

Motoyasu: "Why?"

Y/N: "I don't want this to be too easy."

Motoyasu: "Why you!"

Y/N: "Now if you don't mind, I'll be getting ready for the duel." 

I walked away and saw Inori get grabbed by some knights. I turned around and was about to go after them.

Y/N: "Let go of her!"

King: "She will be with us until the duel is over."

I saw the king looking right at me. I gritted my teeth. This guy pisses me off.

Y/N: "Whatever, you royal bastard."

I walked away.

*Timeskip*

Naofumi and I were standing in our waiting area, waiting for the doors to open.

Announcer: "The duel between the Spear Hero, and the Sword Hero, against the Shield Hero, and the Elemental Hero will now begin! The duel will end when both members of a team are pinned or admits defeat."

I saw Naofumi reach for a sword, but it didn't work out for him.

Y/N: "You already knew that wasn't going to work."
