Seeing the glowing blast of golden light———–
The Great Demon Emperor swung down its scythe-shaped limb.
————ZUBAAAAAAANNN!————
Its strike sounded so powerful, making an explosive sound as if a surge tearing through the air.
And then——— It cracked.
Kirihara’s has been slashed in half.
His golden energy wave was vigorously split towards the left and right.
Gushing out a scream-like sound, the golden dragon passed through the Great Demon Emperor’s sides————
DOGAAAAAAANNN————–!
——-and crashed into the city wall behind the Great demon Emperor, shattering the stone wall.
With Kirihara’s attack, a cloud of dust arose and scattered with the wind.
(Kirihara-kun’s inherent skill was......)
At least, this is the first ti I’ve ever seen this happen.
For Kirihara’s powerful inherent skill to be blocked......
Moreover———— The five golden eyes behind the Great Demon Emperor were all safe from his attack.
(Could it be...... for that attack to not hit the monsters behind it, it even calculated where it strikes......?)
Speaking of those five monsters, they are now slightly retreating backwards.
It seems like for monsters other than the Great Demon Emperor, the Dragonic Buster is still seen as a threat.
[.........It seems like you do possess power that won’t put such a na to sha. So this is the Great Demon Emperor huh.]
The Great Demon Emperor, who blocked the Dragonic Buster, turned towards Kirihara......
[.........................]
—-but still, it remained silent.
[It seems like being called Great Demon Emperor isn’t just putting on airs. As I had expected, soone like you would be able to receive an attack from this Kirihara......]
His inherent skill that possesses overwhelming power has been blocked.
However, Kirihara doesn’t seem to be shaken at all.
He’s still as aloof as before.
[If it was just a normal small fry, they would have been so shaken here that it’s so pathetic...... But the trouble is, I’m different from them. That’s because my inherent skill isn’t my everything...... I’ll apologize in advance——— The only future existing before is my victory. I couldn’t see any path leading to anywhere but that. No matter how much you struggle...... Unlike the other Heroes who rely on their inherent skills———–]
Saying this, Kirihara unsheathed his katana.
[I, who had been born with the great vessel, am different......, ————- !]
For the second ti———— He used .
The golden dragon, even mightier than last ti, undulates and tempestuously swirled.
But just like before———–
The Great Demon Emperor slashed the Dragonic Buster in half again.
[ ! ]
A mont later, I saw it.
Closing in on the Great Demon Emperor, I saw Kirihara with his katana held aloft.
He had managed to get close to the Great Demon Emperor.
He had hidden within his energy wave huh.
Or perhaps, he may have followed behind the energy wave.
Either way————-
(He used his Dragonic Buster to hide himself......!)
Kirihara only used his Dragonic Buster as a ans to hide himself from the enemy’s sight.
So of the golden dragons waving around Kirihara’s body then swelled up and attacked the surrounding monsters.
Not caring what happened to the other monsters, Kirihara brandished his katana that was clad in a golden aura in the air.
Realizing how this would end up, I asked Hijiri if we should support him.
However———– Hijiri only slightly bit her lower lip.
“The situation looks bad.”
That is what I feel.
Bad?
I wonder what was the bad thing regarding this situation?
Such a question popped in my mind——— but now isn’t the ti for that.
I quickly regained my composure.
It was at that mont that it occurred.
There was a faint change in Hijiri’s gaze.
Following her gaze, I imdiately returned my attention to the Great Demon Emperor———-
[ ! ]
He was blown away.
Kirihara Takuto was sent flying by the Great Demon Emperor’s strike.
From within the black mist, a black lump of flesh appeared———-
—–and forming a fist, it punched Kirihara flying.
I was only able to see that lump of flesh in an instant.
No matter how I think about it, that isn’t a size that can be hidden within that mist.
I can only see that the mist expanded for a mont when “what’s inside it” attacked.
(That mist was also expanded when it was spitting out those monsters......)
Perhaps, I can only assu that its size can be increased to so extent.
I think the Great Demon Emperor can also expand its “real body” within that mist.
Moreover———- Its attacks can be tricky.
It suddenly shot out of the mist without any warning.
Just the fact that the signs of its attacks were unpredictable puts worry within one’s mind, making them constantly think about when such an attack would co.
However, predicting the attack in itself was very difficult.
[Ki——- Kirihara-kun!]
The blown-off Kirihara quickly disappeared from sight.
An intense smashing sound rang out———- followed by a thunderous roar......
Blown off like a cannonball, I think Kirihara was sent far enough to hit the castle walls.
In the distance, I could see what looked like dust floating in the air.
From the sound of it, it seed like he had even broken through so of the stone walls.
At any rate, I wonder how far he had blown away......
(No......)
Rather than that———- Is he still alive?
As I had such thoughts in mind, I felt Hijiri’s hand on my shoulder.
[Let’s believe that he’s okay...... Besides, at the mont he was attacked, he instantly raised his guard———- or so it seed to .]
I wasn’t able to see Kirihara raise his guard.
Hijiri’s tone of voice sounded ambiguous though......
Really ambiguous......
[I think you understand this, Sogou-san...... but unfortunately, we can’t afford to check on his safety right now———-]
With her words, the Great Demon Emperor turned towards us.
[We’re next.]
Hijiri imbued magic power into a Sound Ball.
Thereupon, the Sound Ball rang out.
▽
“Great Demon Emperor found. Avoid approaching the area where the sound ca from.”
That’s what the Sound Ball was signaling.
It was a signal to “prevent” Itsuki, Kayako and the others from rushing towards them.
Now that the idea of a surprise attack was gone, there was no problem for us to make a loud noise.
We originally planned to use the Sound Ball after making a surprise attack but......
Shoooom......
The Great Demon Emperor pointed its scythe-like limbs at us.
Incidentally, the lump of flesh that had sent Kirihara flying had already retracted back into the mist.
Thereupon, the five golden eyes that had sohow barely escaped Kirihara’s Dragonic Buster took up their battle stance.
Moving in unison———– the golden eyes rushed towards us.
[Thanks to Kirihara-kun, we were able to see one of the Great Demon Emperor’s hidden cards. It’s still unknown if that was its highest speed, but at least, we have so idea how fast it attacks.]
I bitterly nodded at Hijiri’s words.
[That is...... Yes.]
[It seems like the other side also understood our earlier “action”...... Perhaps, those oncoming golden eyes are pawns to watch our movents———— and disposable pieces to gauge our movents and abilities. There must be a reason why it made sure those five eyes remain alive. Sogou-san...... Can you fight while making sure to save your strength?]
[Y- Yes...... Probably.]
It seems like Hijiri wants to make sure that the Great Demon Emperor doesn’t see my true strength.
[Well then———- let’s go.]
[Y- Yes.]
The first one to run out was Hijiri.
(It’s just as Hijiri-san said...... We can’t afford to be checking on Kirihara-kun’s safety right now!)
The golden eyes draw near.
However......
[———Fast———]
Three heading for .
Two heading towards Hijiri.
Facing these eyes, I created a single-edged sword in an instant.
These golden eyes aren’t my opponents anymore.
Even just using 30% of my power is already enough.
[As expected of Sogou-san.]
[You’re doing great too, Hijiri-san.]
Hijiri briefly observed the Great Demon Emperor.
[Within that mist is its real body...... First, let’s make sure if physical attacks are effective.]
[Understood.]
[Let’s spread out and attack from both sides...... ———– .]
Saying this———— Hijiri accelerated.
It seems like her inherent skill increased her speed.
It’s rather similar to the ability of her sister, Itsuki.
How should I say this———- Her inherent skill is quite versatile.
Making sure I don’t fall behind......
(Even though I had just freed my body from burden......)
————-Creaaaaak————-
Releasing my limits......
I increased my speed to the maximum.
[.............................]
Several scythe-like limbs erged from the black mist.
(It can still increase in number...... ———They’re coming!)
Fuuu......
Exhaling for a mont———–
[———– ———–]
A huge silver sphere appeared overhead.
Its mist swaying with the wind, the Great Demon Emperor looks up at it.
The silver sphere imdiately transford itself into a variety of weapons.
Within those weapons, I picked up one of my inherent skill’s swords and ard myself with it.
Fwish!
In my right hand, a spear.
In my left hand was the sword just now.
My inherent skill isn’t without its disadvantages.
I can’t endow Offensive Skills like on the weapons created by my inherent skill.
However, if it’s a normal spear, I can use it.
This spear is also one of the splendid weapons I had always been fighting with in this world.
The Great Demon Emperor used all its scythe-like limbs to attack at the sa ti.
However, I can see the trajectories of all of its scythes.
——————-In just a mont......
Sparks started flying around .
All the scythe-like limbs that attacked were t by weapons floating in the air.
After I defeated Zweikzeed, my inherent skill had evolved.
“As long as they’re within my range, I can move my inherent skill at will.”
In other words......
Even fighting like the multi-ard Hekatonkheires is possible for .
The flickering of scattered sparks were the result of the collision of our weapons.
Our speeds began increasing even further.
But then......
“It” happened.
I could feel it from the movents of so of its scythes.
They were unmoving, casual......
As if it’s inviting to strike upon its “opening”.
Seeing the opening, ard with my inherent skill’s weapon, I jumped in without any hesitation.
However, it seed like it really was what the Great Demon Emperor was aiming for.
The lump of flesh appeared from within the mist———————————-
And just like a pile bunker, it shot forth.
The Great Demon Emperor dared to point out its opening for .
Yes, it lured towards “there”————–
Leading my actions, it enticed to attack that area.
What happened just now looked as if I myself had chosen that route.
However, I was actually forced to choose such a route.
And when I’m lured there———–I would be smashed by that lump of flesh.
However......
[I’ve already seen through that.]
I evaded the lump of flesh’s strike.
Thereupon, I sliced through the overextending lump of flesh with my inherent skill’s sword.
