Carlotta thought of the generations-long feud between the Fenwick and Carlisle families, her expression slightly complicated.
She felt that Alia herself would never want to get involved in any factional struggles, but her identity determined many things that couldn't be arranged by Alia herself.
Even Alia couldn't slack off and had to seriously deal with the factional conflicts.
Just as Carlotta was feeling a bit emotional, the crowd around her dispersed, and a petite blue-haired girl ca to her, staring at her with blue eyes sowhat similar to Alia's.
Carlotta was not used to being stared at and couldn't help but take the girl.
"It's Ackerman," whispered Avery.
Hearing Avery's words, Carlotta imdiately knew who this person was.
Calla Ackerman, also a noble child, had just entered the academy today.
But what was this person staring at her for?
Just as Carlotta was wondering, Calla finally spoke, "You are Carlotta White, right?"
Carlotta said, "Yes, what's the matter?"
Calla looked serious and said, "Miss White, I challenge you to a duel."
Carlotta: "???"
She had just thought that a duel was sothing she would never participate in, as it was completely unnecessary, but she didn't expect soone to co to her for a duel so quickly.
But why would a noble child co to her for a duel?
"What's the reason?" Carlotta couldn't help asking.
"Reason?" Calla tilted her head and thought for a mont, then sneered, "I asked Professor Estelle, and she said that among the first-year students majoring in card magic, you are the best. I also major in card magic, so I want to challenge you. That's the reason."
Carlotta was speechless.
She felt that this should not be the real reason, but an excuse, but this excuse was quite reasonable.
'Professor Marlowe, you really think highly of .'
Carlotta didn't expect Estelle Marlowe to have such a high opinion of her, thinking that she was the best among the first-year students majoring in card magic.
Despite her surprise, Carlotta said without hesitation, "I refuse this aningless duel."
Calla's eyes widened, "What did you say? You refuse a duel? Don't you have any sense of honor?"
The people around looked at her in surprise, as if Carlotta's refusal to duel was sothing incredible.
This was also the reason why Carlotta didn't like the dueling culture.
Generally, when soone issued a duel, the invitee couldn't refuse, otherwise it would be considered a surrender, which was a very shaful behavior.
Seeing the many eyes around her, Carlotta said helplessly, "I'm just a second-tier apprentice..."
"I will also use the second-tier apprentice level, not to bully you," Calla snorted.
In a duel, if the participants had different levels, they would use the alchemy equipnt provided by the dueling field to suppress their strength to the sa level to ensure fairness.
Calla shook her head, "I thought that Alia's friend would have so level to be noticed by Alia and have als together... But it turns out to be a coward who doesn't dare to accept a duel. It's a sha."
Carlotta's heart skipped a beat, feeling that she might have found the real reason why the other party ca to her for a duel, probably related to Alia.
Seeing Calla shaking her head in disappointnt and about to leave, Carlotta imdiately said, "You may not understand what I an, Miss Ackerman."
Calla stopped and turned back, "What do you an?"
Carlotta said seriously, "I said I refuse a aningless duel, not a duel."
"What is a aningful duel?" Calla didn't understand Carlotta's aning.
The others around also didn't understand, looking at Carlotta strangely.
These people who grew up in the Wendell Empire had a very one-sided understanding of duels, thinking that a duel was just a battle of honor, nothing more.
Carlotta smiled and said, "I want to add a bet, Miss Ackerman. Let's use an alchemy item as a bet. The loser will give the winner an alchemy item. Do you dare?"
Everyone suddenly understood and turned their eyes to Calla.
Calla, who had never thought she would lose, sneered, "There's no problem with that."
"Then you choose a dueling field," Carlotta said calmly.
Joking, how could she be afraid of a duel at the sa level when she could major in both card magic and Elven Knight Path?
The two imdiately went to another dueling field, and so people followed them, including Avery.
The new dueling field was not too big, about 500 square ters.
After entering, Carlotta first quietly took out the Rose Thorn from the storage card when no one was paying attention, and then took it out from her sleeve, pretending that the rapier had been hidden in her sleeve all along.
Because the Rose Thorn was relatively short, this concealnt would not be noticed at all.
Calla entered the other side of the dueling field and felt a mysterious power descending on her, suppressing her level to that of a second-tier apprentice.
The second-tier apprentice level was enough for her, as the person she was dealing with was a card magic path user.
Although she also majored in card magic, she also minored in elven knight path and could also perform at the second-tier apprentice level. She couldn't think of how she could lose.
'This person actually had a al with Alia. Even I didn't have this honor, why her?'
Calla stared at Carlotta angrily, which was the real reason she ca to Carlotta for a duel.
Taking a deep breath, Calla said coldly, "Carlotta White, are you ready? Can the duel start?"
Carlotta nodded, "I'm ready, you can start."
Calla couldn't help but feel amused. This person actually let her start first, wasn't she afraid that she wouldn't have a chance to make a move?
'She probably thought I would use card magic to fight her, but it's not like that.'
Calla wore a sword-shaped necklace. She pulled the sword from the necklace, and the sword quickly enlarged into a beautifully crafted rapier with intricate patterns.
Without a doubt, this was a valuable alchemy item.
Elven Butterfly Dance!
Calla imdiately rushed towards Carlotta.
Looking at the approaching Calla, Carlotta's face couldn't help but show a strange expression.
This person actually wanted to use Elven Knight Path to deal with her?
