This guys freaking annoying.
I grumble as I watch the unhurt Kagerou even when he received a hit from Kuromaru.
I told you it doesnt work didnt I?
He only swung his sword in return.
I catch that with a single hand and beat his stomach with my freed hand.
But it felt dull.
From what I understand, this black armor absorbs all energy and turn them to 0.
Why my attack wasnt being effective was because it turned its kinetic energy to 0, but even attacks laden with magic or magic power were no good.
It seems it also absorbs magic power, but you could simply say its some material that fully absorbs powerful impact.
Its useless!
Woah
Once again I turn my body away from the swung sword.
You know what, I give up.
I dont have a plan to break through my current situation.
Doing no damage even though I put quite a bit of my strength into hitting him means its not even worth considering if its not an attack thats near my full strength I guess.
If you ask me if I would crush him if I put out my full strength, then I can only answer with probably, butif I attack Kagerou with my full strength, then hell die.
Thats bad.
Right now I wont be defeated, but I wont win either. My plans of instantly defeating him and come to other peoples assistance collapsed.
fuhas expected of the man recognized by my liege, different from those insects!
Ah?
If I remember correctlytheyre called the five great demon generals?
Kagerous expression is that of ridicule.
You dont mean this guy
Youwhat the hell did you do?
Even if you ask me what, Ive only killed them is all I can say. There should be a corpse of a giant and of a tiny girl lining up on the dirty ground, you know?
The five great demon generals were defeated?
Physically it should be Ides and Lily.
Those two were strong.
But I can understand.
If this guy fought wearing this armor then they could not hope to win.
They actually dont have any source of damage from the fact I couldnt deal any damage to him.
In other words, his words are real
Its not something to be sad about, you bastard will soon suffer the same fate!
Shut the fuck up.
I dodge the sword and kick Kagerous chest tomake him step back.
Hmph! This much iswhat?
The guy noticed.
That he himself was kicked and was made to take distance.
That he himself received impact.
muttering this and that, just shut up. You, what have you fucking done?
Wh,what
What have you done I said! Aah!?
Before he could say something, I hit Kagerous face hard.
He who fell on his ass finally understood I guess.
That his armor couldnt absorb my attacks.
Eat this!
Guaah!?
I strike him with Kuromaru.
Kuromaru who tried to catch that couldnt kill off the impact and was blown off greatly to the back.
Damn it.
Making me feel my anger boiling. Its not enough, this level of attack.
More, with enough strength to break him
Ha, haha! Now were talking!
I quietly raise Kuromaru overhead towards Kagerou who rose up.
Its still not enough to X this guy.
My magic power crawled onto Kuromaru.
Before long that increased to a thickness where white could be seen and it made the ground vibrate from the magic powers excitement.
just die.
Gh!
His face instantly becoming pale, Kagerou wore a new dark aura over his body.
These two layers are difficult to do as expected, butwith this, I will no longer receive you bastards attack ag
Yeah, shut up.
I want to silence him right now, no, Im going to silence him right now.
The magic power Ive poured into Kuromaru is already reaching its limit.
An instantthe sound in the surrounding stopped.
One straight line ran the earth.
Im glad, youre alive.
Haahaa
Kagerou was standing.
He may be bearing a deep gash from shoulder to toe and he may have spit a large puddle of blood, but he is still standing.
You shifted the tip with your sword and protected your head, huh?
At his feet, the cut edge of his one handed sword was dropped.
Judging from the cutting sensation it shouldve been quality goods at the level of Kuromaru.
And so the shadow armor, to think it prevented a bisection.
I think the cause was that my head cooled down before I had completely swung down and ended up putting some leeway in it, but I really didnt think it could stop this much damage.
This guy is strong, no doubt.
This guys probably the strongest among the black robes.
Even with my
The cut armor broke and fell.
At the same time, Kagerou fell on his knees.
His knees on the ground, he looked up in the sky.
Kill me.
It was a voice that gave up everything.
If I could get rid of you here then it would have be fine though.
Youre too greedy, you idiot.
If you want to kill me, bring along 50 Kagerous.
I dont feel like losing though.
Well, you probably know this, but I dont kill.
Even I didnt think blood would rush into my head this much just then.
To thinkthat I would go as far as thinking about killing him.
Theres still anger, not so much right now though.
For now I want to quickly head to the two. Its about those two, they may still be breathing.
Worst casetheyll be saved by me.
Im in a hurry, but Im the one being troubled if you die like this. Imma treat you so stay still.
Even so, Ill be troubled even if Kagerou dies.
If its this level of injury then I shall do it quickly.
It doesnt look like this guys putting a resistance either so it should be fine if I heal him and tie him up.
You, why wont you take someones life?
Ah?
When I was applying recovery magic while thinking of the future, Kagerous voice put me back to reality.
Ive heard from my liege that you dont take a persons life. From the beginning when you came to this world all the way until nowif that is so, then why wont you kill someone?
now that he mentioned it, what was the reason again?
Its true that I thought I dont want to take responsibility of a persons life anymore at the time I killed Touma.
But, I havent killed a person before that either.
In this cruel world, I stubbornly refused giving and taking life.
How heinous of a guy he is, I wont kill him.
How much I couldnt stomach the guy, I havent killed any.
Whyif Im asked, why though?
If my previous life in Japan was the cause, then I wont be able to recall it anymore.
But suppose that was the case, then I think I wouldve talked about it with somebody.
Something like this happened, thats why I wont take away lifeor something.
I dont have any such memories.
I feel that this reasonthe reason I dont kill people is carved in a much deeper placea place deeper than my heart or memories.
Well I guess its not something I can recall at this place now.
Even I dont know it myself.
I say while binding the treated Kagerou with a rope knead of magic power.
And while Im at it I take out a magic stone out of the magic bag and put it into the rope that has become a roll wrapping around him.
This is a magic sealing stone, he shouldnt be able to use any magic for a while.
Well, arent you glad I was your opponent? If it were someone else you wouldve died.
There is no merit in living for me who has been defeated.
Kagerou hid his face.
We are people that are created. As weapons to destroy various tribes, as tools of war If were defeated then we lose whatever value we had.
Whats with this guy, it suddenly got so heavy.
These sort of stories are basically what I dont want to hear.
Its useless and Ill be left unable to say anything.
Its because I wont be able to sympathise no matter how much he kept at it.
Its because this monster(me) cant feel any sympathy towards anybody.
I dont know your situation, but Well, living is better than ending up dying I think.
Death is accompanied with horror you cant do anything about.
I have already died once so I get that.
The time I was lured into a trap and was forcibly sent back to Japan, I felt my own body dissolving inside the main current of an enormous magic power.
Eventually everything completely dissolved and my consciousness vanished.
That time was scary in any case.
I, who became the strongest and had no scary things, harbored terror.
Excuse me if Im going to taste that again.
For now, well start with you apologizing to the demons and having them forgive you. If its just a bit then I can plead with you so there. And then Id say go out and eat some meal. A full stomach is the root of happiness you know?
Kagerou said nothing.
He must have various things to think about.
Oops I have to find them soon and heal them
Theyre dead you know.
Who cares. Theyre alive, those guys.
My intuition is saying so.
Those guys are tougher than humans and the like.
Tell me the place where they fell right away. You dont have any rights to veto any
This isnt good, you know Kagerou? You have to fight until you die.
!?
I responded to the voice I heard right behind me And reflexively, swung Kuromaru.
It was a single, unadjusted swing.
That guy grinned broadly.
LookYour lieges in a pinch you know.
But, who I killed was
Thanks Kagerou. Thanks to you I was saved and I was able to make Setsu take away a persons life.
Sprays of blood scattered around.
Kagerou crumbled down while looking at his own chest. I, completely cut his heart and lungs and he who lost his life slowly began losing body temperature.
Now Setsushow it to me?
Touma looked at me and laughed.
Without looking at Kagerou who moved himself and acted as a wall, he looked at me.
Kagerou is dead.
I killed him.
Touma use him as a wall, no thats not it.
My blade, my blade murdered him.
I killed himwith these hands of mine.
I took a life, with these hands, I, I, I
Ah Aah AAAaaaaaaAAAAAaaaaaah!
