�You didn�t even finish a single page! What are you even talking about?�

�A writer should be considerate of his readers. He should start with a fun beginning and a touching conclusion.�

�This is not a novel. Give me the book. So, who�s going to win?�

�What�s the point of knowing who wins or who loses? For what absurd reason would a mage and a swordsman need to face off? If it�s favorable to one side, they would want to fight and if it�s disadvantageous to the other, they would flee.�

Shirone opened the middle part of�The Swordsman vs. The Mage�and searched through the pages.

�There may be times when they have no choice but to fight. If that happens, who will win?�

�May I make a rough prediction?�

Abruptly, a sharp voice was heard over the bookshelf.

�Of course, the swordsman would win.�

A man with a cold impression appeared.

He wasn�t as bulky as Rian, but he was much taller, and his limbs were slim and long.

He was the second son of the Ogent Family, Rai Ogent.

Although they were brothers, his atmosphere and appearance was quite different from Rian�s. First, his hair was pitch black.

There were two undiluted characteristics that descended from the Ogent family. Bischoff, the head of the family, the eldest son, and the second son inherited black hair. The light blue hair was passed on to the eldest daughter and the youngest son, Rian.�

In addition, Rian�s grandfather, a nationally recognized Grade 3 swordsman, also had blue hair.

The family had a strong bond, but it was interesting how they would sometimes be divided according to mere hair color.

Which heritage stands out depends on the generation, but this time, black hair was leading as Bischoff and Rai had black hair.�

�Ah! Hello.�

Shirone quickly bowed his head.

No one knew that he was friends with Rian, so if Rai had heard the conversation a while ago, he would be in trouble.�

�The swordsman wins? How can you say that with such conviction? Because you�re one?�

Rian knew that, so he tried to get on Rai�s nerves with a sarcastic tone.�

�Conviction? Is it necessary to use such a dramatic word? It�s a fact that can be acknowledged just by knowing where mages and swordsmen lie on each continent.�

Rai didn�t seem to care about his brother�s relationship with the male servant, but Shirone could not relax.

He felt this every time Rai came to the library. He was a difficult man to read.

�Whatever the position, it�s a face-off. You�re not going to talk like that on the battlefield, are you? Imagine saying things like �It�s over, I have the high ground!��

Rian laughed, satisfied.

But Rai didn�t even respond and looked at Shirone with indifferent eyes.

�What do you think, kid?�

�Well� assuming we�re talking about the highest level, magic is definitely powerful enough to inflict fatal wounds on a swordsman. But swordsmen have excellent physical abilities, so if they attack before magic is casted�� JrNovels.com
