My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero’s

Happy Monday!

I especially enjoyed translating this one because my favorite character came back, kind of. I hope you guys are pleasantly surprised as well. Anyways, heres the next chapter, enjoy.

ED: Ignite

Mahiro Abe.

He was a magic circle user that was thought to be practically extinct within the other races, and even among the ones that I knew of, he was one of the strongest.

Magic power as well, he had the most among the demons, and was the only person who could stop the reckless demon king-sama.

I turned my fangs towards such a person.

Bluntly speaking, I had no chance of winning.

I ran at full speed all the way here from the surface while carrying two people. On top of that, during the battle just now, I had received a few injuries.

Also, I only had enough magic power for one more use of myMetamorphosis.

Even without that, since Aulum Trace was here, we may lose our lives.

I looked behind me.

Miss Amelia whose head was injured, and Master-dono who was frantically trying to stop the blood.

I, who was fated to die in the lowest level of the dungeon, picked up the two people.

My master was no one but Akira Oda, but Miss Amelia was just as important to me.

There was no way I would forgive the one in front of me who injured her.

You, did you have such a personality? I thought you were more submissive though.

You injured my master and his important person. Thats all.

Aah, is that so.

Mahiro clapped his hands together.

From between his hands, were beautiful and insanely complicated magic circles.

His configuration speed spoke for itself, and to single-handedly create so many magic circles without making mistakes, Mahiro was certainly worthy of being the second-ranked among demons.

If you were killed in the dungeon like you shouldve been, you wouldnt be experiencing something like this. my condolences~.

As I looked at the suspended lights in front of me, I imagined it.

When I was at my strongest.

The one whose power matched Mahiros, among the ones that Ive fought up until now.

My body radiated light.

Metamorphosiscommenced.

Yoru. that person is.

Behind me, Master-dono seemed to be dumbfounded.

I was still in the middle of transforming, moreover, to notice it from the back, as expected of him.

Thats understandable.

Because, it seems that this human had died right in front of Master-dono.

Hee. The now deceased sage, Saran Misray, huh.

Golden hair flowed down my head, and I was walking on two legs instead of four.

My body transformed into that of a humans.

Wearing snow white armor, and coldly glaring at Mahiro, it was Saran Misray who Master-dono said was his benefactor and master.

Not only is the consumption of magic power huge when transforming into a human, I would not be able to move afterwards. Ill finish it right away.

Originally, since Im normally an animal, taking on a human form would require much effort to do.

Truthfully, I didnt want to let Master-dono see this form, but under these circumstances, theres no other choice.

I held my right hand up.

I, becoming a sword, will rain down the lights hammer on the enemy that threatens my masterHammer of Light.

For a being of darkness such as I, using the light magic of a first-class light mage was very taxing.

However, that was the same for Mahiro as well.

The light gathered in my right hand that I held up, and was condensed into the shape of a hammer.

With this hammer filled with a terrifying amount of power, what would happen if it were to come down was easy to imagine.

Kuhahahahahaa!! Good! Its been a while since Ive seen that form.

Pann

It resounded clearly, and Mahiro created a new and enormous magic circle.

One which was so big that it couldnt be created without several tens of magicians was created in an instant by a single demon.

Lightning Emperor,Golden Illumination)

His magic power was being poured into the magic circles that he had conjured beforehand and the enormous one.

My eyes widened when I heard the name of the magic.

Ive seen him use both of these spells before.

Lightning Emperor,as the name suggests, was magic that produced lightning. This magic was strong enough to destroy a human country.

Golden Illuminationwas light magic, and was at the same level as or superior to Hammer of Light.

Demons did not have any aptitude for light magic apart from a single exception, but the magic circles could also invoke magic that one did not have any aptitude in.

That magic which was once reassuring to have when we were on the same side, became a source of inexplicable fear when on the receiving end.

Shadow Magic

Before the magic power for the magic circles finished accumulating and just as theHammer of Lightwas ready to fall down, his voice resounded calmly within the dungeon.

Master-dono!?

Reflexively, I looked behind me, and Master-dono put his cloak over Miss Amelia and leaned her against the dungeon wall.

He patted her head once, and looked over here.

I wont let Yoru face this by himself. Besides, this room that is overflowing with light is very convenient.

The light came from theHammer of Lightas well as from Mahiros magic circle.

The perpetually dim dungeon was illuminated by the light, and in proportion to that, the shadows became deeper as well.

It seems that Master-dono realized it.

Hammer of LightandGolden Illuminationwere magic with equal strength.

In other words, they canceled each other out.

Lightning Emperorwas AoE magic, and Mahiro, most likely, intended on killing everyone with Lightning Emperorafter Hammer of Lightwas offset.

Of course, I wouldnt let him do such a thing.

I will protect Master-dono and the others even if I had to sacrifice myself.

That was what I had intended to do.

If you die, I will die as well. Did you forget? Sorry, but I cant die yet. Yoru, focus on the light magic. I will do something about his other magic.

I had resigned myself to die for Master-dono a long time ago.

Once I annulled the contract, Master-dono would be able to live.

Familiar contracts were a type that was established through mutual consent.

If I annulled it, it would, of course, become ineffective. If Master-dono didnt need me, then no matter who died, we would not be traveling together.

Despite this, it seems that this person will not let me die.

That person, I need you to tell me about him in detail later. also, Yoru and I fighting together gives off the feeling of master and familiar.

For ordinary opponents, Master-dono alone would be able to handle it, and likewise, I alone would suffice.

Because we did not want to overdo it, even though I was his familiar, I had never fought together with Master-dono before.

There was an immense feeling of reassurance knowing that I could trust someone to have my back.

We had worked together when Miss Amelia was abducted as well, but because of the nature of the monster that I had transformed into at that time, my consciousness was muddled, so I barely remembered anything.

Come to think of it, what did Master-dono say at that time.

I need to survive this by any means necessary and ask him.

Alright.

Master-dono will protect Miss Amelia.

I focused all my attention on theHammer of Light.

Die.

We released our respective magic, and theHammer of Lightcame down from above while theGolden Illuminationcame from below, colliding in the middle.

They canceled each other out as the violent impact dispersed.

Following that, the magic circle forLightning Emperorwas invoked.

However, Master-donosShadow Magicextended into the air, and ateLightning Emperor, including the magic circles.

Wha!?

As expected, even Mahiro was feeling baffled when the light disappeared.

Maa, something like his magic circles having been eaten by magic, that had probably never happened to him before.

This was, surely, a good experience for him.
