I’ll Live My Second Life!

Dougs sudden declaration turned the crowd noisy.

Oioi, he just challenged him

Heath?

Isnt this guy crazy strong? Is Heath gunna be alright?

Dont tell me he transferred here for Heaths spot in the 18th?

Doug and Fii stared at each other.

His grey eyes were locked onto Fii from behind his blonde hair.

If youre really a knight, then you wont run, challenged Doug.

Oi. Not so fast, interrupted Gorm. Dont you think youre being pretty selfish?

Gorms from the Zalsik Dojo, huh.

Oh? Youve heard of me? smirked Gorms as he looked downwards at Doug.

This is really none of your business, argued Doug. Mind not interrupting me?

No can do.

Pointing his thumbbehind himat Fii, Gorms continued,

This kid is like my underling.

(Underling!)

Fii had no recollection of becoming anything like that though.

Ya think I can sit around if you pick a fight with him?

So what are you saying.

The two boys glared at each other.

Watching them, Fii joined the conversation as well.

Gorms! Friends areequal! Its weird to have those higher and lower! Im completely opposed to this! she complained with her hand up.

Slad, said Gorms, could you shut this retard up?

Gorms decided to just remove Fii from the conversation.

Yeah. Heath, I think its better if you stay quiet for the moment.

Yeah, Heath. I think itd be better if you didnt talk right now.

Thats right. I dont think you should say anything

All three of his dormmates agreed, and Slad reached out to cover Fiis mouth.

MmMmMmnggmngg!

Although they had no idea what Heath was saying, they all reached a wordless agreement to pretend she wasnt there.

After appropriately dealingwith herbecause shewas failing to read the atmosphere, Gorms turned back to Doug.

Heath is Well, were pretending hes not here right now, but if you want to challenge him, I think Ill have you go through me first.

With those words, Gorms turned his wooden sword towards Doug with a grin.

Ill accept your challenge.

Oi, you lot! Youre in the middle of my training right now!

Although for a moment it seemed like the two would begin duelling, Hislo put a stop to that.

But the fact that he didnt interrupt until they agreed to a challenge just showed that he was reading the mood.

I understand. Gorms. Well do it after training.

Aye. Yad better not run.

I wouldnt.

As the two stared at each other, the adult Hislo seemed to let out a nostalgic sigheven as he muttered complaints.

With that, the afternoon training finally began.
