Rashild, the eldest son of the Rushout family.
In the aristocratic society, it’s customary for the eldest son to inherit the family estate. However, Rashild had already decided to cede everything to his elder sister, Esterize, and to live as her aide.
ㅤ
Esterize is a genius.
This is Rashild’s sincere feeling towards his sister. No matter how hard he tries, he can’t reach the heights she has achieved.
If that’s the case, his role is to support his sister and elevate the Rushout family. He thought he would do this by training Fugil and Albero. While Fugil was one thing, Albero was useless and had no talent.
ㅤ
Rashild quickly gave up on Albero.
Deeming him unnecessary for the Rushout family, he stopped making eye contact or speaking with him. There was no reason to do so, and it was a waste of time.
ㅤ
However, Albero changed upon entering the academy.
He single-handedly defeated a demon, and not only gained the support of the academy’s principal, Meteore, but also had two of the twenty-one heroes personally training him.
Eventually, Albero will become a vital force in the battle against the Demon Emperor’s army.
If Albero defeats the Demon Emperor. . . . . .he might be rewarded with a status and rewards far greater than the Rushout family could offer.
ㅤ
That could be a hindrance to elevating the Rushout family.
The only thing to do is to defeat him now, before he fully matures.
Rashild glares at Albero, who he has summoned to the B-class training ground.
ㅤ
“I have something to tell you.”
“. . . . . .”
“Abolish the worthless S-class ranking. And, as punishment for disrupting the order, leave the academy.”
“. . . . . .”
“If you can’t do that. . . . . .shall we make things painful for you? We can always find a reason. An older brother disciplining his insubordinate younger brother, perhaps?”
“. . . . . .Heh, hehehe. . . . . .Ahahahahahahaha!!”
ㅤ
Albero started laughing.
At the same time, Kid also began to laugh.
Only Lapis didn’t laugh, trying to stop the two.
ㅤ
“Are you an idiot? And what’s with those demands? How lowly do you view him? Besides, the S-class is a rank recognized by the Asgard Kingdom. Do you think he can just say 『I’ll abolish it』 and it gets abolished?”
ㅤ
Kid mocked him openly.
Albero had the same thought but added more.
ㅤ
“Let’s be clear. . . . . .you just don’t like me, so you want me to leave.”
“. . . . . .”
ㅤ
A vein popped on Rashild’s forehead.
But Albero didn’t stop.
ㅤ
“It’s strange. . . . . .My once seemingly strong brother and sister now appear so small to me. Just so you know, the moment I became S-class, I had myself removed from the Rushout family. Before my parents could capitalize on my name, before the S-class certification reached the remote Rushout territory. . . . . .As expected, it was immediately accepted. I am just the S-class Summoner, Albero.”
“W, What did you say?!”
“Whaaat?!”
ㅤ
This surprised even Fugil.
Albero bowed his head to Fugil.
ㅤ
“Fugil-niisan. Even if our family ties are severed, I still consider you my brother. And. . . . . .I apologize for acting on my own.”
“Uh. . . . . .”
ㅤ
Fugil averted his eyes from Albero.
By the way, a note about the excommunication was written in small letters on the document about the S-class Summoner that Meteore sent.
“So, what will you do? Even if you defeat me, the Rushout family is no longer involved. After all, I’m now a commoner.”
“You. . . . . .!”
“How about this? A mock battle between summoned beasts, perhaps? Or maybe. . . . . .a duel.”
“Bring it on!!”
ㅤ
As Rashild shouted, a giant 『axe』 was summoned above his head.
At the same time, Rashild discarded his uniform jacket. Beneath the uniform was a battle suit provided by the summoning academy, a special suit made from the material of a certain summoned beast.
“Roar, 『Leibold Ax』!!”
ㅤ
Purple lightning emanated from the axe.
Rashild’s Summoned beast 『Leibold Ax』 is an “Equipment-type” summoned beast.
Its ability is 『Purple Lightning』, and it can freely control lightning.
Rashild swung the axe like a branch, thrusting it towards Albero.
ㅤ
“『Asgard・Eight Rounds』’s Rashild. Exercising the authority of the Discipline Committee Chairman! I’ll discipline students who disrupt the school’s order!”
“Hmph, discipline, huh. . . . . .”
ㅤ
Albero took a step forward.
Then, Kid and Lapis also prepared, but were held back.
ㅤ
“This is my fight. Kid, Lapis, handle the minor nuisances around us.”
“Alright. . . . . .fine, we’ll let you have it.”
“What do you mean by ‘minor nuisances’?”
“Look closely, Ojou-sama. There are a bunch of B-class guys hiding in the audience. Probably members of that so-called Discipline Committee. They might try to ambush us under the guise of a one-on-one. . . . . .I’ll crush them.”
“Understood. Be careful, Albero.”
“Yeah. And Kid, don’t go overboard.”
“I got it.”
ㅤ
Kid’s left arm transformed, looking like a cluster of jade minerals from the shoulder.
His index finger became a gun muzzle, and he laughed gleefully.
Lapis also called out her summoned beast, Marcosias, and kept a lookout around.
Albero snapped the fingers of his right hand.
ㅤ
“Let’s do this, Mog━━no, 『Jabberwock』.”
ㅤ
His right arm transformed from the shoulder.
His right side looked like dragon scales, and his arm enlarged like a gauntlet with sharp claws at the fingertips.
The whites of his eyes turned red, and the irises turned golden. Albero took a stance.
ㅤ
“Now━━I’ll crush you!!”
ㅤ
The battle between Albero and the eldest son of the Rushout family, Rashild, began.
