Dual Life ~Hiru wa Yuusha Party, Yoru wa Maou Gun~

From death to death, there are so many soldiers scattered here and there that the word seems the best way to describe the situation. However, it is unlikely that he is dead as long as he sees his chest moving up and down, but he doesn't have to be gutted or disabled. There were swords, axes, bows, spears and other weapons allegedly belonging to them, and there were large holes in the ground. The training of the four kings, Beelzebuth, was the cause of this disaster. The content is very simple, only a mock battle between 100 soldiers and one Beelzebuth, but the soldiers have never won. It is the key to this training to be able to receive an attack just before the limit that can be handled by each ability, but the limit was based on the assumption that the reinforcement magic is used fully open. There is no reason to be able to endure for a long time by fully opening it without thinking about enhancement magic, and it is natural that if you do such a recklessness, the magical power will be cut off and the whole body will not be able to move. The purpose of this exercise is to reach beyond the limits in the extreme. The next day he arrived here, Mirage also participated in the training, and the year had passed.

"Well ... and the rest looks just like you."

Beruzebut, who smiles fearlessly while correcting his distorted glasses, turned his gaze to Mirage and Astalt, two deputy officers holding a scythe while breathing on their shoulders. The weakness of Mirage that was revealed in one case the other day, a scythe passed to train close combat, one of them. It is a weapon that can be said to be the synonym of the four kings of Beelzebuth, and is also a weapon that my daughter Astalt loves. There are even anecdotes about getting into the middle of the enemy line on the battlefield and cutting off their heads one after another. In fact, it is a long-armed weapon that takes advantage of reach like a halberd rather than proximity, but it can be used in various ways. The blade that draws a huge circular curve attached to the tip of the long handle is extremely useful not only for cutting enemies, but also for hooking, tapping, and poke. Mirage has learned many uses over the past year, including walking, destroying armor and helmets, and dropping weapons. As a result, they are now standing side by side with Astalt without falling down on the ground like other soldiers, but the limits are near.

"Mirage, my magic is about to run out. The next will be the last."

"I'm almost at the limit. I've been swinging for a year, but I can't quite get used to this weapon."

"... I think it would be enough if I could handle that in one year. I've used it since I was a child."

"Well, in my case, I just let the magical power say something ..."

"Still ..."

Mirage frowns on his forehead, sweats on his forehead, and masks his facial expressions, but his face is limited. What made the magical amount speak was an enhancement magic. As you can see from the appearance, the scythe is very heavy and has a center of gravity in front of it, so if you mishandle it, your body will be carried and a large gap will easily occur. While scythes can be used for a variety of purposes, they are the weapons that require the most appropriate judgment and experience depending on the situation. Mirage is still inexperienced in handling, so it is merely deceiving with a huge amount of magical power and forcibly strengthening its physical abilities. From the perspective of Astart, he does not seem to possess ridiculous magical power to make up for the difference from himself, and rather sounds like Mirage's humility. No matter how much Mirage has a lot of magic, Astalt is also a veteran of the Four Heavens, and is good at handling magic. That's why Astart probably perceives Mirage as twice or three times his own, no matter how much magic he has. The guess is correct because Mirage actually adjusts the amount of magic she shows as her ostensibility. However, it is difficult to guess from the outside how much enchantment magic is consuming, and some people can get one effect with one spell, while others can get only one effect with ten spells. It is. And the Mirage, which used to play mainly magical attacks at long distances, is the latter, and although it has become better than a year ago, the skill of strengthening magic is still far from that of those who can be called masters Low. Under these circumstances, there is a discrepancy between the growth rate of Mirage from the viewpoint of Astalt and the growth that he feels himself, but they do not seem to notice each other.

"Both of us don't talk so much. I want you to do as much as I can to hunt me down."

"I also want to have a good day off, so I'm not going to worship forever."

"I don't need a separate vacation ... but this two-to-one delay is something I want to break out of soon."

With few exceptions, no soldiers participate every day in the mock-ups of Beelzebuth, which can be overworked to the limit. Despite being moderately spaced, depending on rank and ability, the aides, Mirage and Astalt, have been cutting their blades with Beelzebuth every day of the year. The goal imposed on them is to defeat the four heavenly kings Beelzebuth two-on-one. However, before the two opponents, Beelzebuth was simulated with a hundred soldiers, so it was actually a one-to-one match, but it still didn't work. .

"I will go!"

"Roger that"

Signaled by the screams of Astart, the two cut to Beelzebute from the left and right. The blade is crushed because it is a simulated weapon, but one or two bones can be easily broken if you receive it incorrectly. However, Beelzebute does not seem impatient, and works off the opponent's inscrutable attack without difficulty, distributing the power of the opponent. The appearance is just like a dance, and the silver long hair makes it more beautiful. The demons are famous for being particularly old in demons, but the Beelzebuth is only seen in the mid-twentieth of a human being.

"I'm breathing ..."

During a fierce battle, Beelzebute suddenly leaks words. Both Astart and Mirage are silent as to whether they can afford a reply, but they are certainly working together. He always stood so that one side was out of the field of view while always maintaining a diagonal position across Beelzebuth. With the exception of races that beastize and change the way they make themselves, normal demons, like humans, have a field of view of up to about 200 degrees and cannot see behind their ears. In addition, the blade of the scythe has an arc shape against the handle, so the trajectory of the attack is very special. It's harder for the recipient, but it's also true for the attacker. If two people with poor skills try to fight like each other, they will not only get entangled with each other's scythes, but will also mistakenly attack each other. In fact, the first day of training seemed impossible to call a partnership, and Mirage was repeatedly scolded by Astart. Being able to grasp each other's movements, in addition to improving the technology of Mirage, makes it possible to bend around Beelzebuet.

"But ... still sweet"

There is a momentary gap, or a collapse that can not be thought of as an ordinary person, and the cooperation between Mirage and Astalt shifts only slightly. Neither Mirage nor Astalt is as good as Beelzebuth in one-on-one. That's why by launching a series of attacks that will not give you time to breathe together, you can focus your opponent on defense. However, whether Astard's attack was too early or Mirage's pursuit too late, he gave Beelzebute some room to fight back. Beelzebuth scoops up the Astart's scythe with his scythe blade and flies it high into the air. It is a movement that would normally lose room to prevent Mirage's pursuit, but now there is only a slight gap. It was obvious which was longer, the time when Astalt picked up his weapon and returned, and the time when Mirage held down Beelzebuth alone.

"Checkmate ..."

Corrected the trajectory of the scythe that Belzebute was raising to prevent Mirage's attack. Mirage decided he couldn't make it in time, but at the same time questioned whether he was really in time. Sure, I use all my strength magic, but that's only as far as I can control. Then, what if you ignore the control even more? Of course, Mirage's thoughts were not so accurate, but he acted almost reflexively with immediate judgment. Explosively increases only the magic power used to strengthen the right arm, reducing the time it takes for the blade to reach the Beelzebute.

"Now!"

Beelzebute with a startling voice and open eyes. The armor with a bellezebut scythe lifts up as the Mirage attack repels the arm, causing the upper arm to bow, as if the defense that was supposed to be in time missed the attack. I got it, Mirage judged it and shook his right arm again, but only emptied the sky.

"I see ... aside from a double-edged sword, I don't know if it would be useful."

When Mirage turned his gaze while muttering, the scythe, which he had grasped earlier, made a dull noise and fell to the ground. Neither Mirage nor Astalt could do anything beyond losing their weapons, and their magical power was exhausted.
