Chapter 83: Calm the girls down(4)
Sorry for not releasing the Chapters yesterday. First, I was busy, and when I was finally free, I had no internet. So, I postponed the release to today. As compensation, I'll release two extra Chapters later—specifically in seven hours.

The capital of the kingdom was usually a peaceful place, but today, conversations echoed throughout the city. Most of the discussions took place among the nobility, yet even commoners eagerly took part. The reason for such heated debates was an event that could only be described as unprecedented: a viscount had challenged a prince to a duel.
This sparked a wave of arguments and rumors, especially among women and members of the faction that despised Leon. They wasted no opportunity to tarnish his name, spreading unflattering comments and gossip. However, Leon himself couldn't have cared less. The only thing that truly occupied his mind was the upcoming duel.
Yet, with each passing day, he found himself growing more and more impatient. And the reason behind this frustration was none other than the infamous group of five idiots—a collection of people whose behavior irritated him to no end. They kept repeating the same thing over and over: that he was making a mistake, that he shouldn't underestimate his opponents. Their words grated on his nerves, and he barely restrained himself from punching someone.
Finally, the day he had been waiting for arrived. Leon stepped into the Coliseum—an arena generously provided by the academy for this duel. The stands were packed with spectators, all eagerly awaiting the battle to begin.
The moment Leon walked onto the arena floor, he was met with a deafening wave of jeers.
"Drop dead, Bartfort!"
"I hope you lose instantly!"
