[Brave Hearts], a typical RPG where the player plays as the hero who will eventually free the world from the terror of the demons!
But so far...
No demon had made an appearance yet.
It's like they don't even exist.
Raye hadn't heard anything about them ever since he was transported into this world.
And he'd been here for more than half a year!
But Raye didn't think much about it...
After all, he knew that the demons would appear and make their move during Leon's sophomore year.
He wasn't entirely sure when since the ti of their appearance was vaguely ntioned in the ga.
So, Raye always carried his weapons just in case.
But now, staring at the demon in front of him...
'Isn't this way too early? The vacation only just started!'
Raye frowned with that thought in his head!
*****
(Raye's POV)
-Hmm, interesting.
The demon mumbled that while smirking at .
He was topless and barefoot, but at least he was wearing a ragged shorts.
His bulging muscles were on display—clearly, he had a strong raw physical strength.
Anyway, as I was observing him...
-You said there were only kids and won here?
The demon suddenly asked that.
"Huh?"
I was confused.
He was alone. Who was he talking to?
Then it hit ...
'Is he really alone?'
And as soon as I asked that in my head...
-I-I'm sorry, master... I w-was sure there were only k-kids and w-won when I scouted last week... hehe...
A hunched-back man with a grotesque face and balding hair erged from behind the demon!
His face was so deford that I almost felt sorry for him for a second!
But I didn't—after all...
'That's a demon worshiper!'
A human who had succumbed to the demons!
Demon worshippers enter contracts to gain power, but at the cost of a sacrifice!
'And this fucker probably sacrificed his appearance... No way he's uglier than a demon naturally.'
I thought with a frown on my face.
Moving on...
-No worries, it's just a single male anyway.
The demon spoke calmly.
Then, looking at his hand that I deflected earlier...
-And he's not that strong either.
He added that!
-H-hehe... He's weak, huh?
The deford human muttered.
'Ugh, he's pissing off just by him existing.'
I thought. The demon worshipper is that creepy and disgusting.
Anyway, I secretly glanced behind ...
The kids were watching from inside the orphanage, crying and scared.
Sister Irish and the other caretakers are hugging and comforting them.
Though, they also looked terrified...
"...!"
Sister Irish then saw looking and t my gaze.
"..."
I nodded to signal her—either call for help or be ready to run if the situation calls for it.
"Mhm."
She nodded back with a resolute expression on her face.
'I hope she got the ssage.'
I thought, slightly worried.
And then...
-Where are you looking?
The demon's voice snapped back to the present!
My eyes shot forward, and there...
"?!"
I saw the demon standing in front of just a few inches away!
I didn't even hear him move!
SWISH—
I imdiately slashed horizontally with [Nyx]!
-Oh?
Swish-
But the demon just casually stepped back, narrowly dodging my attack!
"Wha—?!"
I was surprised!
And then in response...
SWOOSH—
The demon launched a push kick!
"Urgh...!"
I crossed my arms and sent mana to [Celestria]!
BAM!
Then a gauntlet was ford on my left forearm, blocking his kick just in ti!
But still...
"Ugh..."
The force pushed back slightly, pain spreading through my arms!
'My arms would've been broken if I took that directly.'
I thought with a pained expression on my face.
-Huh? Where did that co from?
The demon asked, eyeing at [Celestria], the gauntlet in my forearm.
"..."
I said nothing, of course.
-M-My lord...
Then the deford human called for the demon.
"Hmm?"
The demon looked back at him.
I was tempted to attack but held back.
After all...
'He's on guard. I'd get countered for sure.'
Anyway, the grotesque man spoke again...
-C-Can I make a r-request?
He asked the demon.
-What is it?
The demon responded.
-H-hehehe... His face...
The ugly deford fucker pointed at .
"...?"
I tilted my head in confusion.
And then, with a disgusting smirk on his face...
-I-I want it... h-heheheheh...
The mashed-up at looking thing declared that!
'What?!'
I exclaid in my head hearing his words.
-I see.
The demon said, smiling at .
And with a mischievous grin on his face...
-I just thought of sothing interesting.
The demon muttered that!
"..."
I stayed silent, letting them talk.
'This will buy so ti for the people in the orphanage.'
I thought.
Then, pointing at the deford demon worshipper...
-This one is newly contracted to .
The demon mumbled that, looking at .
'So?'
I frowned internally.
-I want to test his capabilities.
The demon continued.
And then, turning to the deford man...
-Hey, you.
-Y-yes, sir?
-Fight this guy and kill him. I'll transfer your soul into his body if you succeed.
The demon said that!
"!!!"
My eyes widened in surprise.
On the other hand...
-Hehe!
The ugly fucker's eyes glead with excitent!
And without hesitation...
-G-Got it!
He shouted that!
*****
Hearing the demon worshipper's answer...
-Great.
The demon said that and leaped back with a grin.
Bam-
-This better be entertaining.
He said.
"..."
Raye stood silent.
'At least I won't have to fight them both at once.'
He thought to himself.
Tap—
And then the deford man stepped forward.
-M-my na is M-dina... hehe...
He muttered.
"..."
Raye ignored him, he sent mana into [Celestria] instead.
Fwoosh—
It transford into a beautiful white sword.
Then, frowning at the demon worshipper...
"I don't fucking care, fuck-face."
Raye responded!
-HAHAHAHAHA!!!
The demon burst out laughing hearing that.
-Gurgh...
dina frowned in embarrassnt.
"Wow, I can't believe you can get even uglier."
And Raye remarked, seeing that.
-I-I'll k-kill you!
dina exclaid, enraged.
-Be careful. That human is fast.
The demon warned him.
And following that...
Swish—
dina disappeared from Raye's sight!
"?!"
Fwish-
And he reappeared right in front of him!
-Is h-he faster than m-?
dina asked with a crazed smile!
SWOOSH—
Then he swung his disgusting right claw at Raye!
Though, as dina was about to hit him....
Fwish-
Raye vanished in front of him!
Swoosh—
Making dina hit nothing but the air!
-Huh?
And as he stood there, confused...
BAAM!!!
-ARGH!
He felt a strike slamd into his back, sending him face-first into the ground!
Thud-
And looking at him...
"Of course I'm faster."
Raye declared that!
He was so nonchalant about it, saying it like he was stating the obvious!
-Hoh, that was good.
The demon mused, entertained.
Even after seeing Raye's speed...
There's no sign of him being concerned!
Seeing his reaction is making Raye worried.
He remained vigilant, keeping an eye on the demon.
After all, just one sneak attack from him could kill him.
And what's worst...
'He could go after the people in the orphanage too.'
Raye thought.
Just then...
-GRAAAHHHH!!!
dina roared!
"Huh?"
Raye brought his attention back to him.
And there on the ground, he saw him...
He was growing in size!
"What the fuck..."
Raye muttered, seeing dina expand into a 2-ter-tall muscular figure!
'Still ugly, though.'
Raye comnted in his head.
Then, in anger...
-I'M GOING TO KILL YOU AND STEAL YOUR BODY!!!
dina shouted that from the bottom of his lungs without stuttering!
Fwish-
And then his figure blurred out and he disappeared again!
Though this ti...
'He's faster!'
Fwip-
Raye crossed [Nyx] and [Celestria] in front of him...
BANG—!
And he was able to block a massive fist that suddenly appeared out of nowhere!
"Urgh...?!"
Raye winced as the force of the attack pressed against his arms!
Fwish—
dina vanished again, faster than before!
'He's fast for his size!'
Raye exclaid in his head as he quickly turned around...
TWHACK—!
And blocked dina's left fist with [Celestria]!
Then as a counter...
SWOOOSH—
Raye slashed [Nyx] diagonally upward, aiming at dina's neck!
Though...
THUNK—
The blade of his sword didn't cut through his skin!
-WEAK!
dina sneered.
But then...
"[Blaze]"
Raye muttered that calmly!
SWAAAA—
Then [Nyx] caught on violent fire!
SLASH—
And it sliced dina's neck!
-?!!
Bam-
dina instinctively jumped back.
And because of that...
-GRAAHH?!!
He was able to keep his head!
Raye looked at dina.
Then, with a disappointed look in his eyes...
"That's a sha, I thought I had you then."
Raye mumbled that confidently!
His voice brimming with certainty!
In his head, he's not considering that he'll lose against dina!
-...
And knowing that...
-YOU'RE ANNOYING!!!
dina roared in anger once again!
BAM—
And he dashed toward Raye with his right fist already extended!
"Thank you for the complint."
Raye replied to him.
THUNK—!
And then he blocked dina's right fist with [Nyx]!
-HAAAAA!!!
dina followed a punch with his left...
THONK—!
But Raye just blocked it with [Celestria]!
He was frowning pretty hard, though; dina's attack packed a punch, after all.
Anyway...
-HAAAAA!!!
dina continued launching a barrage of swift, powerful punches with his mana-coated fists!
THANK—!
THUNK—!
CLANK—!
TING—!
But Raye was just parrying and blocking them all!
That's right...
Raye...
He's several tis stronger than dina!
'I'll buy ti by fighting this ugly fucker slowly.'
Raye thought!
But unbeknownst to him...
-Haaaah...
The demon was slowly getting bored watching them.
