I Will Be the Son of Man

"You did say you wanted to protect Miyu before, didn't you, Mr. Hill?"

Hill nodded without any hesitation.

"For Miyu, after transforming into a magical girl, she will get a considerable degree of defense enhancement in terms of physical and magical power."

"That's why we can avoid the damage caused by those dangerous attacks when recovering the [Employment Card]."

"But it's different if you're going to get involved, Mr. Hill."

Luvia's face became serious. She looked at Hill's thin body, even though she knew that the other party might be a talented magician to some extent.

However, being a talented magician does not mean being able to adapt to battle.

Furthermore, she also wanted to use this opportunity to cancel Hill's original plan.

"As a magician, you just have an ordinary body. So in the face of those dangers, you may need Miyu to protect you instead."

"I understand that you don't want Meiyou to face those dangerous emotions alone, but this is not only a task, but also the child's own choice."

"So, Mr. Hill. If you can defeat my butler, then I will temporarily promise you to participate in this matter."

"In addition, in terms of magic, it is forbidden to use it in this duel."

Completely blocking the road, Luvia's almost refusing request was to allow Hill to withdraw voluntarily.

Moreover, even if the other party insisted, with the other party's thin body, without relying on magic, it must not be able to deal with his own butler whose body has been tempered.

"I see, as long as you win, it's all right?"

Luvia couldn't help being stunned by Hill's too quick and crisp words, and at the same time she sighed inwardly.

Is that right, is it the type that doesn't give up until the end......

"Before that, don't underestimate August just because of his age, Mr. Hill."

"Seriously speaking, ordinary magicians and the like are no match for August at all, not to mention you who won't be able to use magic later on."

Luvia reminded again, after all, Meiyou still needs to help her reclaim the [employment card], and she doesn't actually dislike the other party's starting point for wanting to get involved.

But it was precisely because of this that she didn't want the other party to get involved like this.

"It's okay, I'll win."

Hill looked at August who was standing next to Luvia, but he didn't feel any danger from the other party.

"elder brother........."

Miyu tugged on Rachel's sleeve worriedly, but Hill patted the other person's head to calm down Miyu's emotions.

"Where, then, is the duel to be held?"

Seeing Hill say this, Luvia frowned.

"Really, it looks like you have to use facts to speak..."

There was some helplessness in her tone, for this "beautiful" neighbor, if possible, Luvia would prefer a more peaceful way of getting along.

"For a duel, it's in the backyard. The space here is still too small."

Luvia stood up and walked out of the living room.

However, when passing by August, she said softly.

"At the meeting, pay attention to showing mercy to August. Just let that person understand the danger of this matter."

"Yes, I understand."

August nodded lightly. In fact, even if Luvia didn't order him so, he still had such a plan.

After all, for Hill with such a simple temperament, from the first face, he still has a good impression.

In the backyard of the villa, Hill and August stood facing each other at a distance.

"Master Hill, let's do it first, it doesn't matter if you use all your strength."

The eyes under August's glasses observed Hill's body. From the outside, he didn't look like he had undergone any training.

Therefore, he also has a rough idea of ​​how far the water will be released.

"Full strength?"

Hill blinked, thought for a while, and decided it would be better not to do that.

Because if he only uses his full strength, he doesn't know if he can retract his strength in time.

"Now that you're ready, let's start the duel."

Luvia crossed her arms, and she didn't persuade Hill again, because she knew it would be useless.

So, let the results speak for themselves.

"Then, please attack, Lord Hill."

August stared at Hill and said so.

So, in the next second, he saw Hill's face in front of his eyes.

boom.

Then came the sound of trampling the ground, and the strong wind blowing across August's face directly blew away August's hairstyle, and even cracks appeared on the glasses lenses on the bridge of his nose.

boom.

There was another cracking sound, and this time, even the wall in the backyard was knocked down by the impact that penetrated the air.

The frame on the glasses finally broke at this moment, and the broken glasses also slowly fell to the ground.

August's eyes didn't blink, and it took him a long time to react. Looking at the fist next to his face, and the gully left on the ground due to the wind of the fist, and the collapsed wall, he immediately understood. all of these.

——I am no match for the boy in front of me.

"I didn't expect Master Hill to belong to the introverted type..."

"This is really...... I'm so convinced by the loser."

He took out a spare pair of glasses from the inside pocket of his clothes, took out a handkerchief, wiped the lenses, and then put them back on.

He bowed slightly to Hill, with respect in his tone.

"In this way, it should be fine, right?"

Hill withdrew his fist and turned to look at Luvia who was standing still.

"Wait, wait a minute, isn't this against common sense!? I should say, you can't use magic!?"

"No, no, there was no magic aura just now, even with the enhanced technique, it is impossible to achieve this level easily."

"Then, is it possible to achieve this level just by relying on the flesh? How is that possible..."

Biting her lips lightly, Luvia lowered her head and frowned in thought.

However, Hill, who was waiting for the other party's response, didn't feel anything special about it.

Because, compared to before, this should be considered normal...

Glancing at the backyard destroyed by himself, Hill thought for a while, then opened the silver ripple, and took out a few gems from it.

"I'm sorry for the damage to the backyard and please accept these as compensation."

Just as she was about to hand the gem to August, Luvia rushed over and took the gem first.

"These gems... are deceiving. Judging from the age alone, even if they are used to make high-level dresses or use some great magic, they are completely fine."

"Also, you just used imaginary number magic?"

Luvia looked at Hill with some uncertainty, and being able to take out something out of thin air has already made her realize that Hill is abnormal to some extent.

"Imaginary magic?"

Hill blinked, thought for a while, and then spoke.

"Maybe. However, I will use it unconsciously, so I don't know."

After all, the biggest use of Silver Ripples for Hill is to be able to store fresh apples.

"unconsciously.........."

The corners of Luvia's mouth twitched slightly, and she always felt that she was being ridiculed in an invisible way in terms of talent.

"So, now I can get involved in the recycling thing?"

Seeing Hill brought up this matter again, Luvia realized at this moment that it turned out that she blocked her own way.

If you agree to the other party, with the help of a magician who doesn't know the details, I don't know what the [Magic Association] and the [Master] will say.

But if you don't agree, this will damage the reputation of the Edfelt family.

Frowning tightly, Luvia hesitated for a long time before slowly speaking.

"I see, I can promise you."

"However, the subsequent actions must be under my command. Moreover, the [Employment Card] needs to be handed over to the [Magic Association], so please don't use the card idea."

Although the development of the matter is somewhat out of her control, at the moment, Luvia can only agree to the other party first.

For the next thing, she can only make a decision after she contacts the [Master].

Hill nodded, and walked towards Miyu who seemed to be in a daze.

"Meiyu, let's go home. Tomorrow, you still need to report to school."

"Ah, um, brother......"

Seemingly not recovering from the shock just now, Miyu blinked in confusion.

Hill, on the other hand, took the other's hand and walked towards the door of the villa.

As Miyu walked, she turned her head from time to time to look at the messy backyard that was only caused by human beings without any other means.

How the hell did it work......

For Miyu, who believes that magic is also a kind of science, it is undoubtedly a kind of shock that human beings can fly freely in the sky.

Looking at the two people leaving, Luvia sighed with her hands on her hips.

"I actually missed it......"

"August, can you deal with that person?"
