Chapter 505

Liza surprised everyone

“So then, I will give the signal to start…”

“Yes, thank you, Phillip.”

After Sebastian took Ms. Claire away to where Ms. Anne and the others were, Phillip took a step forward, and then moved in between Mr. Ekenhart and Liza, who were facing each other.

“Liza. You must think of my father as an enemy, and do your best!”

“Indeed. Fight the duke with everything you have!”

“Yes, I’ll do my best!”

Ms. Claire and Ms. Anne shouted their support.

That was fine… But I felt a little bad for Mr. Ekenhart…

Even Ms. Anne was rooting against him… Perhaps she was holding a grudge?

No, it was probably just that she was fond of Liza, and agreeing with Ms. Claire without much thought.

“Now, Liza. Be careful…that you don’t hurt yourself.”

“Wuff. Wuff-wuff!”

“Do your best, Liza!”

“Yes!”

“Kyau!”

I also moved away, but said a few words first.

As I didn’t want to encourage her to become reckless, I just told her to be careful.

But Leo barked as if to say, ‘get him!’ In spite of sounding worried a moment ago, now that it was happening, she wanted Liza to go all out.

In any case, we went over to where the others were waiting.

Now we just had to wait for Phillip’s signal.

Liza was wielding her knife, and while Mr. Ekenhart had his sword, it seemed like he had no intention of swinging it, as it was pointed towards the ground.

After all, he was just going to dodge and occasionally block. There would be no counter attacks.

It would have been better if he had a wooden sword…but no one had brought one, as we didn’t plan to do this.

“Are you both ready?”

“Mmm.”

“Yes!”

Mr. Ekenhart nodded calmly, while Liza held her knife in a backhand grip, close to her face, and shouted.

Hmm…backhand grip?

She hadn’t been holding it like that before. Had Mr. Reyndorf taught her…?

“Then…begin!”

Well, I would have to ask her later. Right now, I would watch and pray that she did not get hurt.

“Hah!”

“Huh!?”

After the signal, Liza seemed to crouch for a second, before jumping out as if bouncing.

And like that, she moved towards Mr. Ekenhart in a straight line, at a speed I did not expect to see. Everyone else’s expressions turned to that of shock.

…Except for Leo and Sherry.

In any case, Liza was rushing towards Mr. Ekenhart at a speed that was faster than when Sherry charged at the orc.

And as she got closer, she raised the knife into the air.

“Hyah!”

“Hmm! Tsk!”

And without losing any momentum, she swung down as if to aim for Mr. Ekenhart’s chest.

While she was short, if she raised her arm, she would just be able to reach his heart.

Mr. Ekenhart was stunned at her speed, but quickly regained his calm and jumped back.

“Hmm. I missed…”

Liza muttered with disappointment.

I was glad that she hadn’t hit him…

But no one had expected Liza to move like that, and target his heart with such precision.

Had it been me, I would have been too shocked to dodge it…

“To suddenly attack my vitals like that… How frightening. And that speed… I can also sense a faint magic energy… I cannot let my guard down.”

“Magic energy…? I don’t know. But grandfather always told me to use all of my power! And so did mama.”

“Mr. Reyndorf… What did he tell her… No, it is a good thing, but…”

Mr. Ekenhart muttered as he looked at Liza.

While I had never met him, I don’t know if this was the kind of thing that she needed to go all out in…

But perhaps he himself did not think she would apply it when it came to battle…
