A Banished Failure Survives in the Borderland and Becomes an S-Rank Exorcist

Slash and throw away. How long has it been since I sacrificed a mere presence standing in front of my eyes?

Claire didn't stop while she was exposed to fresh blood. Already clotted blood is covering her body. Move forward by shaking it.

"Ahahahahaha!! Don't die!!! Die!! Ahahah!

A magician, she was unfortunately demonstrating her abilities. No, the word Magus is incorrect. She is an individual with a mix of human elements. It has been decades since she came to the country where the Magus lives. There are not as many countries as there are mankind. Life expectancy is long, but fertility is not so high, plus a significant number of people have died in the last hundred years of war. Unlike other demons, they boast unusual combat abilities, but sometimes they are not matched by the amount of other demons.

Exactly the defense of a retreat. Humans have created borderline cities, and while they are there, there is still a battle between the demons in the evening world.

"... Phew, is it over? Unfortunately...."

Lick the blood stuck to your cheeks. I am currently fighting a subhuman. Claire fought in formation, but was too far ahead of herself to fight in complete isolation on the front lines. She destroyed the enemy by herself. Its strength is already one of the best among the Magus. Still up there, up there. Claire will know about it in the future...

Claire, you're way ahead.

"Er, because everyone's late!

"Don't underestimate the other demons. That's why so many magicians have been killed."

"To fish like this?

That said, Claire pierces the sword into the corpse and chops it out. Looking at it dripping, she sneers.

It was a magician named Clyde who came on the spot. He has been taking care of Claire ever since she came to the country. Even if you take care of him the most, all you can give him is... combat skills. It's just how you kill them. Claire has been holding a sword in her hand ever since she realized something. And I kept killing monsters. No, it's not just monsters, even subhumans put it on their hands.

I can't remember how many people have begged for my life. She ignored all of it and ravaged it. This is the code of dusk. I know that. I carved it into my heart to the point that I hate it.

In addition, Claire knew that each time she fought, she would express her joy throughout her body. I'm not yet the strongest person in the world. It is ranked at the top of the Magus, but it is not the top. Chewing on that fact, she repeats the killing today and today.

"Even though it's a miscellaneous fish, it's overwhelmingly outnumbered the Magus in terms of volume. You've seen a lot of people do that, haven't you?

"They were just junk fish, right?

"... I can say that, but be careful."

"... yes"

I hear a lot about Clyde, Claire, but of course there's a reason for that. Because Claire never beat Clyde once. Even if you seriously challenge it, it will be easily decorated. Regardless of age and experience, Claire is certainly strong. Still, it doesn't matter to her. It's not about age, it's about strength in the world today. Age is just a few things.

That's why Claire listens to Clyde very often. But I'm just listening, and I'm not aware of that. Such questions have already been repeated. Claire first came to the battlefield when she was seven. By that time, I was already awakened to my abilities as a Magus, and I went to the battlefield at the discretion of the upper echelons. Unlike humans, not even companions are forgiving.

If you don't use it, you just die. That's all.

Many magicians, Claire, will soon die... they thought so. But instead of surviving, she made the biggest difference on the battlefield. As other magicians die, a little girl acts as a lion. Since then, her growth has been remarkable, and she is in quite a post among the Mages. Not just miscellaneous soldiers, but as a member of the executive, all we do now is kill.

That was the only way she lived.

"Well, well. What's next, Clyde?"

"... I don't know what to do. We can head north, but we're not in such a good position. I can also retreat here....."

Er, I'm bored.

"Your emotions will not determine the course of battle."

"I know, but you can still do it, right?

"... that's also true."

"Where are the guys in the back?

"We are currently engaged with other demons. If you go first, don't leave us alone."

"Hmm. Isn't that easy?

"... don't be alarmed."

"Ohhh!!

Claire then proceeds with a smile. Without wiping the dripping blood, she proceeds.

"But it's so big, right here."

I guess not now.

"But I always do. I wonder why there's dusk in this underground space."

"Only after the evening is over."

Yes, yes.

Yes, they're in a huge underground space. The Unity War by the Demons is not fought on earth. Rather, this huge underground space is the habitat of the demons. It's just a bunch of unintelligent people, like what's on the ground. Even the demon tribes that are suffering humans are nothing but fish. Compared to this place.

In addition, the dusk hazard zone level is over 10.

But it's not long before mankind moves on to this land...
