Night has fallen on the day of Apristos’ invasion and subsequent defeat (being driven back by Halt).
“Blast it! Why!”
A devil was beating up sothing on top of a mountain located beside the grasslands overlooking the Royal Capital of Alheim.
Besides that devil, the worn-out body of the forr general of the Alheim Army was lying around.
The devil was none other than Amon, who had ford a pact with the ex-general.
At the mont of their contract, Amon had taken away the ex-general's soul and possessed his body.
Unfortunately, the forr general’s body beca useless, and thus he, in his own form, was hitting an unknown object that was preventing his escape.
“Why can’t I go out!? What’s with this barrier!”
Amon was enclosed in a do barrier with a radius of approximately 3 ters.
Even with the power of the Devil Amon, it could not be destroyed. No matter how many tis Amon attacked, the barrier didn’t budge.
“DAMN!!!”
It wasn't supposed to be like this.
Originally, by this ti, Alheim would have fallen, and the Elves would all be down in the depths of despair and horror.
The resulting enormous amount of negative energy that could have been harvested was supposed to beco food for the Evil God, who was Amon’s Master.
All of these were thwarted by just one human.
“That human, Halt, was it. I’ll rember you… I’ll kill you right away as soon as I get out of here!!!”
There was a figure approaching the mumbling Amon.
“Hmmm, so you’ll kill , huh?”
“!?”
Halt ca to check on Amon’s situation.
“Well, that’s why you can’t get out of there. If you can get out, then co and kill .”
“You bastard! I knew it. This barrier is really your—“
“Right. I knew a devil wouldn’t die so easily. The mont I punched you, I placed a spell on you that will expand into a barrier once you hit sothing.”
The barrier was a fixed position type, and attacks from the interior were repelled.
When Halt had punched Amon, and the latter had crash-landed on the mountain, the barrier had unfolded and enclosed Amon, causing him to beco stuck on the spot.
Various obstructive magic spells were interwoven to create a barrier that would prevent Amon’s escape.
Amon couldn’t use magic inside the barrier, so he had no choice but to use his bare hands to tear down the barrier.
“I don’t like killing sothing that has a human form, but letting you go ans so other country might experience misfortune.”
When saying that, Halt raised his hand high above the air.
“Wha, what’s that magical power! Wa, wait, wait! I’ll do anything! I swear, I won’t bring disaster in this world ever again! So, so please, forgive !”
Amon saw Halt as being more of a devil than himself. It was because of the monstrous amount of magical power being directed to himself. It was the first ti he pleaded with such sincerity since he was born.
Unfortunately, Halt swung his arm down.
“Holy Lance!”
The ginormous spear was released, and it pierced through the barrier and Amon.
“D— am—“
Amon’s entire being was completely purified by the [Holy Magic]. The forr general’s body also disappeared.
“I defeated a devil for the anti. If I’m not mistaken… Amon must have ranked 7th among the demons serving under the Evil God. At least, I confird that the barrier was also effective against devils.”
Halt mused over the situation on his own.
Halt’s ultimate goal was to get a shot at the Evil God, who had killed him. That’s why he used Amon as a guinea pig to test his current ability. Halt decided not to stay satisfied being in the status quo, but instead continue improving his power in order to defeat the Evil God.
Halt then teleported back to where his wives were waiting for his return.
