I Have Been Called The Idiot Son Behind My Back. But I Remembered Memories, And I Can Use The Abilities I Had In My Past Life. So I Will Make Use of Major Online Stores Like Am**on And Aim for a Slow Life for Now - 171

**Episode 171: A Perfect Example of a Fall**

By the way, regarding this ranking match, due to the number of participants, the training grounds at the academy are being fully utilized.

I arrive at the venue with Mariel and my side attendants, a pair of young nobles who act like my lackeys.

“Hmm, you actually showed up instead of making some excuse about being unwell like you usually do. You could have just forfeited without any hassle, but instead, you’re going through this annoying match where the outcome is already known. Truly, you lack both ability and intelligence. It’s ridiculous that someone like you, born into a dukedom, is so foolish. But with a moron like you set to inherit the Quist house, it’s certain that the family will decline in the near future, which might be a tasty opportunity for my family to feast on their assets.”

My opponent, a man with long, shining blue hair, grins as he looks down at me, trying to provoke me.

Thinking about how satisfying it would be to get rid of idiots like him naturally boosts my motivation.

“Is that all you want to say?”

“Huh? What’s this? You’re actually going to retort? You, who are at the bottom in both martial and magical skills? That’s hilarious.”

“Well, fine. I’ll take your challenge. And just to clarify, my forfeit wasn’t because I couldn’t win; it was because it was a hassle.”

I ask if he has anything else to say, but since he seems more interested in taunting than expressing anything substantial, I decide to accept his challenge.

When I mention that my reason for forfeit was simply because it was annoying, he bursts out laughing, holding his stomach.

Indeed, he’s right in a way, but once I knock him down, lies become truth, so there’s no need to reveal the actual reason.

“That excuse of yours is quite a stretch, isn’t it, Kaiser-kun? You might have relied on your family’s power until now, but today I’ll show you that there are things in this world that cannot be solved just with power.”

“I’m looking forward to it.”

As we reach the center of the training ground, the teacher acting as the referee signals the start of the match.

“Then, I’ll show you a kick right to that annoying face! Huh?!”

The moment the signal sounds, my opponent rushes towards me, launching a kick aimed at my face. However, it’s far too slow, so I sweep his standing leg with my foot, and he falls down perfectly, landing on his backside.
