"I would say the same but unfortunately I don't know your name but it's nice to meet to meet you too." Lucas said as he bowed as well.

He saw the finger of the boy twitching when he said he didn't know him. He also saw the boy had a irritated face when he heard him.

"Oh, then let me introduce myself. I am Oskar Rehbindr, the heir to the house of Rehbindr which holds the rank of duke like yours." The now introduced Oskar said to him.

"Good to know." Lucas nonchalantly said as he took a sip of his wine.

Oskar grit his teeth in response to his nonchalant answer.

'Why the hell is he talking so nonchalantly?! My house is the same rank as him and he acts like I'm some normal person! I'm the heir to the noble house of Rehbindr! Is he looking down on me!?' Oskar thought to himself with growing anger.

Oskar looked at Lucas who was calmly observing his surroundings while eating a few grapes. While this would've caused other people to leave him, for someone like Oskar it was as if he was disrespecting him.

"You! Do you think I am a joke!" Oskar yelled out as he pointed at Lucas.

"What?" Lucas asked confused at the sudden shout.

The other nobles at the party also turned and looked at the two heirs when they heard his shout. Lucas' parents also turned and looked at them and were confused and worried at what was happening.

"Don't act like you don't know? My house holds the same rank as yours and you dare disrespect me my ignoring me!" Oskar shouted as he looked at him in anger.

"This is a huge misunderstanding. I just didn't have anything to talk with you. If you wanted to talk to me you could've done just that." Lucas said to him trying to placate him.

"Do you really think that I'm that gullible to believe that a nobleman like you would act like that!?" Oskar however was more angered by it.

'What the hell!? I wanted to placate him not anger him more!? Is my talking skills still not good?' Lucas thought to himself.

"Alright I've decided! I, Oskar Rehbindr of the noble house of Rehbindr challenge you for a duel with the sword!" Oskar proclaimed as he pointed at Lucas.

Gasps were heard from the girls while the boys were surprised. The adults acted the same as the children. Lucas knew that he couldn't back away from the challenge since as a noble he has to accept the battle. He looked at his parents who were looking at him and then at the heir in front of him.

"Alright, as a noble I cannot back down from this challenge. I accept your challenge. But can we do it in a more appropriate place?" Lucas asked him.

"What do you suggest?" Oskar asked as he was curious.

"The two of us are heir's to two noble families of the kingdom of Norway, so I think it is more appropriate to fight in a more official manner." Lucas said to him.

'I really don't care about the fight or anything but I have to at least act like a noble in front of these people.' Lucas thought to himself.

"Heh. At least now you act a bit like a nobleman. Fine, in two days we will have an official battle at the colluseum in my family territory. I'll show you my might as a noble." Oskar said with a victorious smirk.

Lucas nodded to him with a serious face. Oskar seeing his face smiled as he turned around and proceeded to walk out of the hall. The other nobles started to talk with eachother while his parents were a bit worried while Lucas couldn't help but sigh to himself.

'Seriously, I can't believe this is happening. I just wanted to graduate from college and get a nice job but now I have this. Though…' Lucas thought to himself as he looked out the window.

It was already night time so the moon was clearly visible to him as he smiled at the scene.

'This world isn't that bad. Not to mention, I am a bit excited at the prospect of fighting.' Lucas thought with a wide smile at the thought of using the knowledge he gained and training he did for the last 11 years.

After the declaration of a battle with the nobleman from Reinhardt family, Lucas left the party and went to his mansion with his parents. After being reassured by his mother and getting encouraged by his father he left and went to his room. It has become nightime when they reached their home and they had their dinner at the party. So Lucas got in his sleeping dress and got ready for bed.

He thought about the things that happened at the party and decided to disregard it for the moment and went to sleep as he knew that he has important things to do tomorrow.

The next day Lucas went through his daily routine of training and eating before he left his mansion to go to an inn in the city. He was in disguise as a middle class person as he entered the inn. He then entered a room and was met with a middle aged man who was wearing merchant clothes.

"Hello Master Lucas. It is nice to meet you again." The man greeted him.

"Same Alvis. It's good to see that you're in time as well." Lucas said back.

The two of them looked at eachother as they were ready to talk business.

    Olivia charged as she tapped her foot on the side of her horse as it picked up its pace alongside her master's as the two stabbed through the soldiers in front of them. The remaining soldiers were a few mages, archers and a handful of melee soldiers as their army charged at them. Olivia jumped from her horse as her spear channeled lightning through its tip as she threw the weapon towards the soldiers. It impaled clean through three of them as she landed on the ground and she charged forwards as she was attacked by the archers and mages. She narrowly dodged the attacks as she saw the impaled soldiers raising their weapons which surprised her as the one in the front is wielding a sword, the second and third are mages as she was impressed by their tenacity to keep going. But she focused once more as she unsheathed her sword as she sliced off the arm of the one in front as she pulled out her spear as the blood splashed on the ground as she glared at the soldiers as her spear's blade

    Lucas used a healing spell on himself as he growled at the sight of the enemies and he dashed forward, his mind now even sharper due to the attack as he ran towards the enemies with full speed. Falkor roared overhead as he glanced at his wyvern who was flying through the air and dodging the spells from the mages. 'I should kill the lot of them quickly before they become a problem. The strange magical attack, it would be problematic for me if I had to fight these bastards with another sniping me. If my focus isn't correct then I will die.' Lucas thought to himself as he ran to his enemies. He increased his speed as he ran towards the enemies as the soldiers shot their arrows and the mages attacked him as well. Three soldiers wielding swords charged at the heir which confused the latter. 'Where these three here before?' Lucas thought to himself in confusion as he looked at the charging enemies. He was pretty sure that he had taken care of all the melee soldiers and now three sol

    Lucas blinked his eyes as he coughed a bit as he stood up from the wreckage of the broken trees as he took a second to process what had happened to him as he grabbed his sword. 'What just happened?' Lucas thought to himself as he recalled what had happened. He had thrown a corpse at the incoming fireballs and managed to protect himself as Falkor also helped with his own fire breath. Kriemhild himself was shocked at the attack before she was thrown away by Lucas as he saw the soldiers coming towards him as he saw her landing on the ground. After he was sure that he was safe he blocked a sword and punched the chest of the soldier as he was launched back before he ducked as a mace passed over where his head back before he kicked the man and launched him back as he quickly turned and lunged forward and stabbed the soldier in the neck. He picked the dying soldier and threw him at the enemies as he momentarily looked towards Kriemhild as he saw her fighting and defending herself as

    Lucas observed the army for a few moments before he joined back into the fray as he couldn't let the two girls and Falkor deal with the soldiers. By this time Kriemhild and Aslaug had already realised that something was different with the soldier and even Falkor was quite wary of them after a while. Lucas ran towards the soldiers as he felt the runes that had been drawn on his body activating as he let out a breath and attacked an archer and decapitated him before he used that guy's body to smack the ones around him as blood flew out of the neck. Only for him to be shocked as an archer grabbed the headless body and another kicked him at that moment causing him to let go of the body as he had to dodge arrows that were shot at him as he summersaulted and slammed his heel on soldier under him as he was slammed into the ground. He finished it by slamming his other foot down through the torso of the soldier, before he dashed towards the other archers. He decided to leave the mages for t

    Lucas didn't give the soldiers a chance to attack as he immediately lunged forward with his sword ready, the runes taking effect as he swung and decapitated three soldiers as his sword sang as it cut through the necks of the soldiers with ease as its wielder spun around as he shot out flames which burned the soldiers as they cried out in pain. He looked at Kriemhild as she also attacked the soldiers as her sword was also able to cut through their armor and their bodies as the sword was working as he had intended as he smiled to himself as he focused back on the enemies. The mages were busy putting up shields to deflect the flames from Falkor which only annoyed the wyvern as it roared and increased the speed as it flew through the air and attacked the other soldiers as the mages kept on using shields as they knew that they couldn't lose them. The archers also attacked the wyvern but it was proving to be ineffective as the wyvern was able to dodge the arrows as they were getting angr

    Lucas quickly put on his armor and grabbed his sword as he dashed out of his room, startling the servants near his room as they looked at him in shock as he quickly went down the stairs, his armor making noise which caught the attention of his parents as they came out of a room to find him in armor. "Son?" Leif called out in confusion alongside his wife. "The enemy soldiers are attacking!" Lucas shouted as he dashed without stopping as his words caused the eyes of his parents to widen alongside the servants. "What!?" All of them shouted in shock at his sudden declaration. But Lucas didn't wait for a response as he threw open the doors of the entrance as be spotted Falkor who was currently chilling on the ground, though he did sense his Master and looked at him. "Get ready to fly!" Lucas shouted as the Wyvern's eyes narrowed in response as it let out a light roar. Falkor raised his wings as he raised his body up using his legs as Lucas jumped onto his back as he steadied him
