This b*tch! She ignored me! Wait, calm down, why am I getting so angry about it? Her attitude towards me is completely normal. None of the nobles wouldn't pay an Rank F Magical Talent any attention because they aren't useful. If so, getting angry about such a thing would only be a waste of time and effort. Now that I think about it, have I not been more barbaric since my reincarnation? I'm sure such tiny details wouldn't have phased me in the past, after all, those of higher positions in the army were the same in this aspect. It looks like I don't want myself to stay as that weak soldier of the past.

'I must show my ability if I want to be recognised.' I think in determination as I follow Mistress Sapphire to the Training Grounds. She smiled pretentiously at the other participants of the tournament behind me and ignored my presence once again.

"So, let's get this special tournament started, but I want to make a bet with you servants before I get you all into groups." She says innocently. I felt a sense of foreboding in her words and furrowed my brows in contrast. The adults who followed is didn't say anything but their lips let out helpless sighs as a result of her words.

"What bet is it, Young Mistress, all of us are ready for anything you throw at us!" Aaron Rockwell stood out from the crowd and says straightforwardly. I've met many people in my past life, so I can tell, this young boy is truly as straightforward as he looks. He may be naive right now, but in the future, I can easily tell that he will have countless accomplishments if he doesn't die.

"Simple, me against all of you, who do you think will win?" The 'Young Mistress' says arrogantly. I take back what I said before, because she's definitely a f*cking b*tch! To think she would challenge everyone beforehand.

Is she trying to break our spirits before the tournament even starts? No, it seems like she didn't intend to have us fight each other in the first place, this 'bet' she's made is just her way of stabilising her position. She wanted to show her servants that she is the strongest, without question, and plant a seed of domination in our minds before we ever think of rebelling against any of her direct orders. She doesn't want a Exclusive Butler, but a servant that will obey her under all circumstances. Such a vicious b*tch!

"None of us will accept!" Aaron voiced for the youths that were silenced by her confidence. They knew of her superior talent, and knew that there was no hope in defeating her, so they backed up. However, the Young Mistress didn't allow anyone to retreat, she took out a wooden sword and lunged forward.

A red layer of light covered her body as she sent one of the youths that were closest to her flying with extreme force.

"Don't back out now. I mean, there's no way I'd let a coward become my servant anyway." The Young Mistress says innocently with a satanic smile. I didn't expect her to be so insane! To attack us without warning! The youths around me had no choice but to group together. They all attacked her at once to retaliate against the Young Mistress who was attacking them one by one.

A sharp gleam appears in her eyes as she slashed her wooden sword circularly around her body. I was able to hide from her gaze by retreating but them cursed myself after seeing Aaron take initiative to attack. If he can gather his courage then I should do the same as well! I was about to rush forward and help him but he gestured his hand.

"I will fight her in my own." Aaron says valiantly and attacks her using the Earth God Sword Style, his wooden sword heavily smashes on to the Young Mistresses own. However, she didn't even look disorientated from the heavy attack and pushed him back with her wooden sword using only one hand.

"You seem a little special." She casually says while fighting him with only one hand. I could see that Aaron felt insulted by her tone. I don't know what swordsmanship she's using but the strength of it is abnormal. It doesn't even care about the opponents and attacks extremely straightforwardly.

If it was done by a chivalrous knight, it would have looked because of its simplicity, but when used by her it seems to display a strong arrogance. As if to say: 'Use any tricks you want, it won't matter to me, since I don't even need to scheme to defeat you.'

"Earthen Lance!" Aaron, who was pushed back, chants and slaps the floor. A lance made from Earth thrusts out of the ground and aims at her chest, but it was blocked by a red fire.

"Ignis Armour." She chants unhurriedly as the flame manifested into an fiery armour that covered her entire body. A trace of hopelessness could be seen in his eyes as he backed away because know she was like an invincible armoured war machine.

"Earthen Wall!" He chants and slaps the ground once more. A thick wall of earth separated the Young Mistress and his body, but he didn't expect that she would ignore the wall of earth. She charged through it with full force, her movements didn't stop for a second as she appeared out the other side of the wall of earth and sent him flying.

His unconscious body fell to the side as he coughed out blood. I couldn't help but feel rage. She is so brutal! If she really is a Reincarnated Individual, I don't care who's backing her, I'll beat her black and blue! Even if the Duke is standing right there, I won't hold back one bit, I'll smash her teeth out!

"Corrupting Light!" I chant secretly. I cover my knife and hand in a Light Reinforcement, then I hold my wooden sword in a reverse grip behind myself.

Unlike the Reinforcement Art, this magic I made using my light attribute is unique, it's able to move an object to my will. I use my magic to telepathically move the knife forwards towards the Young Mistress whilst hiding my presence. She was too busy dealing with the other youths who were foolishly jumping at her and didn't notice me until I positioned behind her.

"I didn't notice you there." She says as she blocked my wooden knife with her wooden sword. However, her expression stiffened as she was actually pushed away by my attack, the other youths stopped attacking after they saw that there was someone who could actually made her use two hands.

"Don't underestimate us Butlers!" I say and pushed forward. The knife in my hand moves in mysterious ways due to Corrupting Light. The reason I used this instead of my Reinforcement Art was because an object affected by Corrupting Light wasn't able to be affected by outside forces. If I had more Mana, perhaps I wouldn't even need to move, since I could just telepathically control it to attack her in the air.

She seemed to be more cautious towards my wooden knife, and adapted quickly to the usual situation she was in, but it's too late. Before she could react, changed the effected area of Corrupted Light and covered the wooden sword behind my back, then I slashed it towards her exposed neck. A sound of impact resounded but it wasn't the type of impact I wanted to hear. Her wooden sword defended against my sudden sword attack and used the force I threw at her to rotate the sword to smash my chest, sending me flying just like Aaron was before.
