"Melia!?

"Long time no see, Flair. I've heard a lot about it, but it's been about ten years since I've seen you face to face like this?

Even though I was able to reunite with my real sister, my chest was more impatient than joy.Defeat the General with a single knock to overturn the disadvantage.And a powerful demon tribe.I can't believe I'm getting in the way at this time when I want to induce a rush and not give myself time to recover...

Moreover, given how Merliah gained power, she must have put herself on the Devil's side.In other words, it will be called two to one.At a time when Merliah's strength is still not clear, I would like to avoid disadvantage as much as possible.

"You....!That's right. That's the toy you were talking about.Perfect. Step up.Let's get rid of the Virgin and go crush Lumiel. "

The demon tribe commanded Meria to do so, hiding her truncated arm.After all... Melia has been turned into a Demon Hand.I don't want to kill each other if I can think of the affections of my relatives.But that won't be possible in this situation.Melia resents me badly.I don't think further persuasion will work now.

Suddenly Merliah started laughing when she was ready to hold her sword and see which one would move first.

"Ahah......!Ahahahaha!This is a masterpiece!

"Hmm, what's wrong!?What are you laughing at?

"Ahahah... hah.I mean... hey? You can't keep laughing, can you?I used to be so confident and great, but I can't believe you helped me when I got a little pinched.Is there no pride in the demons?

"Huh!?

Merliah looked at the demon tribe with contempt, as if she had made a fool of herself.The opposite demon tribe was terribly scared that Mary wouldn't take such an attitude.

"Oh, you! You're going to defy us for the token we saved!?

"You didn't ask me to help you, did you?It's not something you guys did on your own.Also, there is a will in the token.Unlike the monsters that were thrown away downstairs. "

That's what Merliah pointed down.Looking down, explosions continue throughout the battlefield as usual.Each time, the damage spread to monsters and knights, and the battlefield looked like hell pictures.

"Then what are you doing here!?You're going to tell me you're here!?

"No, it's not. I don't have time for that either.My purpose is one.Killing both of you and defeating both demons and humans. "

"Melia!? Are you insane!?

I didn't mean to crush not only humans but even demons...It's not a decent thought.To put it bluntly, Melia... is like her sister declaring herself to fight the whole world by herself.That's because that brave brave brave man didn't even do the demon king once.Melia, who looked at me with astonishment and fun, talks to us with a calm voice that doesn't seem to have a very crazy inner side.

"I'm crazy, Flair.I'm not going to forgive the people who abandoned me or the demons who used me.So I will continue to fight for as long as I live and try to eradicate both from this world.That's the goal now.Whoever disturbs it will not be forgiven.Whether you're a brave man or a demon king, I'll slash you down with my hands. "

Merliah pulls out her sword at the end of the story.From that body, the lethality swelled up all at once, proving that the current words were not lies.When the sword was reflexively held, the first one to move was the Witch Clan.

"Enough! I kept you alive because you were a useful token, you ungrateful piece of shit!You should crush it like a monster!

As she shook up her hand, which was left behind by the demon clan, something like a black shock wave overflowed from it, and she immediately hit Meria to avoid it.

"What a big surprise!But it's over! You're lucky to be on time for a token!Suicide bomb with the Virgin!

No way - this is the same magic that exploded the monster!?A man named "The Tortured" exploded in front of my head.Even a man who seemed less powerful had explosions and power of that magnitude.If a man as powerful as Meliá explodes - I'm not gonna make it down to the army.I was anxious whether the demon tribes who had been chased down and abandoned themselves had been set up in preparation for a collision, but apparently it was different.

"I'm going to run away with this scroll.After that, you'll die regretting it. "

When the Witch Clan spoke so much, Mary cut off her scrolling arm.

"Huh!? Oh, you!

"I'm sorry. The curse on gems has been lifted a long time ago."

"Who!?

Probably an arm with a scroll that seemed to be for escape was dancing in vain.When Merliah quickly haunted the head of the Witch Clan, she smiled again.

"You know there's a constraint that the Demons have imposed on us, the Tortured One, right?It's like shit that you have to suck someone else's vitality out of to survive.But lately, I realized something interesting.You know what that is?

"Ka... ku...!

The strangled demon tribe shook her head weakly as she continued to breathe.Merliah continues to talk about whether she is satisfied with the reaction.

"When I sucked the vitality out of humans, I had a feeling that I was getting stronger.At first, I thought it was an illusion.But repeating it changed my mind.I'm getting stronger.Every life you breathe.Sure, and he's got enough power to take life away from strong people. "

Merliah's chest shined suspiciously, and in contrast, the expression of the demon tribe became painful.

"I wanted to try it there.I wonder what happens when I suck up the demon life force.Humans have gained so much power.What kind of power can the Demons gain from a more powerful life form?



The demon tribe, who had an instinct for death, began to go wild with death, but Mary had a troublesome look, as if she were a puppy with bad manners.

…… ……

"Oh, don't be so violent.It's hard to suck it up. But... this is amazing.I can clearly see that the power is increasing.The demons are amazing!

Merliah continues to suck life from the demon tribe with joy.Eventually, the demon clan in her hand stopped moving and finally became pure white like salt, and then disappeared to dissolve in the wind.
