Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Chapter 315 - Duel Begins

"Duel? You mean actual combat right?" Ning asked.

"Of course. Why? Are you scared?" Bradley asked.

"Sure," Ning said. "But what's the point of this duel? You trying to show that you can beat me only?"

"Of course we will have a bet on it," Bradley said with a hint of confusion on his face. He couldn't understand why this weak guy was so willing to fight him.

Ning's eyes brightened when he heard that. "Alright, let's have a good bet. What's at stake for me?" Ning asked.

"If… If you lose, you will never meet with sister Ely again," Bradley said.

'Damn, why are people so p0ssesive in the Central Continent. First Gonez now him,' he thought.

"Oh, and my thoughts don't count here?" Eleonora looked angrily at Bradley. "Am I a tool you can decide if someone uses or not?"

"N-No, of course not Sister Ely. I was just trying to keep this good for nothing away from you. What do you even see in him in the first place?"

"He's not rich or strong. He's not even as good of a teacher as you," Bradley said.

"Oh, then what? Do you think I should get together with you?" Eleonora asked.

"I- I mean, I… I'm not… uhh… opposed to it, I guess. If you really want to… then I won't stop it," Bradley fumbled his way onto the answer.

"It's okay, my love. I will fight this demon for us," Ning suddenly said from behind.

Eleonora suddenly looked behind at Ning with angry eyes.

Ning winced a little when he saw those eyes. 'Yikes, I went too far.'

He made an apologetic face and looked at Bradley. "Very well, I agree to your bet. But, what about mine?" Ning asked.

"Say what your bet is?" Bradley asked.

"If I win, you will stay away from the Rigot family for at least 300 years," Ning said.

"Sure," Bradley didn't hesitate at all when he agreed. "Come, let's go to the backyard to fight.."

Ning nodded and walked out of the room. Bradley angrily walked off towards the back, while Ning followed behind him.

When he finally reached outside, Ning was surprised.

"Oh, it's morning already?" he said in surprise.

"I guess we might have talked all night long. I didn't notice the time go away," Eleonora said.

Ender and Ember had heard the shouts inside the house and quickly ran out.

"What's going on, sister?" Ender asked.

"Brother Bradley is going to have a duel with… the teacher," Eleonora said.

"Huh? Is he an idiot? Why is he trying to fight with nephew Bradley?" Ember asked.

Both the siblings didn't say anything and instead walked towards the fight.

"What is this about?" Ender asked using his divine sense.

"Bradley thinks teacher Ning and I have an affair, so he challenged teacher Ning to a duel," Eleonora replied.

"What? But he'll die," Ender shouted out loud.

"Right?" Ember said from the side, completely misunderstanding his son's response.

"Uncle Ember, please watch over our fight," Bradley said.

"I'm weaker than you… but sure. Let me be the referee. No killing or crippling and no use of forbidden techniques and items," Ember said.

Ning and Bradley got ready.

"Fight!"

Bradley suddenly ran forward to attack but suddenly, a golden light flashed in front of him.

As soon as the fight started Ning had brought out Aegis. While Aegis' cultivation base wasn't as high as Bradley's, his defense was still top-notch.

Even 5th realm Nascent soul cultivators would find it difficult to hurt him.

Ning took out a chair from his storage bag and put it on the ground before sitting on it with one of his legs on top of the other.

"Just block his attack until he is tired," Ning said and chilled back. All 3 of the Rigot family members were shocked when they saw Ning chill like that.

"Is he trying to kill his beast?" Ember asked. "That's a suicide!"

"Umm… Isn't the beast doing quite well on its own though?" Ender asked.

"It should be fine," Eleonora spoke. "The beast might actually be able to defend it all."

"Why do you say that? Do you see something we don't?" Ember asked.

"No, its cultivation base is indeed Nascent Soul 2nd realm, but…" Eleonora didn't speak and just thought back to the time in the academy when she was protecting the many students and this beast was left behind by Ning to protect them.

'He must've done it because it was good at defense,' Eleonora thought.

Bradley was raging mad right now. "Fight me yourself, you coward. Stop using your beast," Bradley said. "If you don't, then I will destroy this beetle into a million pieces."

However, no matter how much he shouted, Ning acted like he didn't hear anything and just basked in the morning sunlight.

Attack after attack, Bradley threw everything at Ning, but Aegis blocked each and every single one of his attacks.

Bradley was starting to get frustrated.

"Hey, can you hurry up? I got places to be. I can't spend my remaining life sitting here," Ning said.

This just agitated Bradley even more. "You bastard. I will kill you," he shouted and started attacking more and more.

Finally, after a while, Bradley started huffing and slowed down a bit.

Ning looked at Aegis who was doing all the work and asked, "Tired?"

"No," Aegis said as he shook his head.

"Rest anyway. You did good," he said and took back Aegis.

"Haha! Finally. Now that your beast is gone, I can easily beat you," Bradley shouted out loud.

Ning smiled and was about to bring out Blue to mess with him some more when he heard the door to the back of the mansion open up.

A servant opened the door and made the way for a person to walk through. The new man was an older gentleman wearing a greenish-yellow robe with light yellow hair.

"I was wondering why you guys weren't outside to welcome me.. Turns out you were all back here."
