Konjiki no Moji Tsukai (Reboot)

217: The Battle of Legals

"Duke? Is that a unique monster? And the SS rank."

As a unique monster of the SS rank, it is divided into four stages: Baron, Count, Markus and Duke, from below, which are indicators of its strength.

Dukekeeper, meaning he is the most powerful monster in his SS rank.

"You're right. Duke Keeper is a monster that has long been called" The Guardian of the Black Tree. "We'll never get Black Tree Vega unless he admits it."

"Would you admit it? How did you do that?

"The method is not easy. Kill it, yeah."

"Then it's simple and easy to understand. It's easy."

"Wait a minute, Hiro."

"What is it?"

Leggles will stop him.

"Sure, I don't think it's a problem for you, even if you're dealing with a unique monster of SS rank. You even defeated that demon. But we're not. Or are you saying you're going to take him down?

"No, I got a word from Leoward before I got here."

"Chi, from your father?

Ah.

Hyiro, this is my request, but I'm glad you're doing your best to support me.

"Chi, did your father do that?

"Oh, that's why I'm only a supporter. It is your job to defeat that monster. Except for Mimil, of course."

We can never let her fight close to zero combat power. Because in the first place, it is a Japanese color that also serves as Mimil's escort.

"Well, then it's too late. If it's just an SS ranked monster, I can handle it with Petites and me. But the opponent is a unique monster and the most powerful class. That might be too much."

"Hey, what about the next Beast King? Leowood's here alone in martial arts training, right? There's a buddy of yours. That's not the case, is it?

"That's... that's true, though."

Leoward told me about Legulus, something of a personal nature.

He has the character of a careful hitter across a stone bridge. Even though he is calm, disinclined to fight, and physically blessed, he does not seem to be able to demonstrate all of it in battle like Leoward. It seems to apply a brake when subconsciously attacking the opponent.

The opponent is a monster. Don't hesitate to hit me with all your might. I'm here, and I'm gonna fight with him. "

I put my hand on Nicki's head in the sun. She shook her fist high as if she were motivated.

"Yes! Any opponent will be excited about my Blast Fist!

A positive personality, like Nicki, is essential in order to grow stronger, even though you want to know a little bit about yourself.

"Why don't you think it's a trial? I suppose Leoward sent you here because he expects you."

"Hyiro-kun...."

Still, I wonder if I can't step on it.

"Brother Leg, I believe in you."

"Mimil...."

"I know. My brother always trains late at night."

"... were you watching?

"It happens. But I'm sure that if you're going to be stronger every day, you'll be able to meet your father's expectations."

"Yes, Mr. Leggles is strong. That's what Master Leoward said."

"Petits....."

Leguls opens his right hand and drops his gaze there. When you make a fist, you squeeze your face like you're ready.

"Okay. As the next Beast King, I will definitely get Black Tree Vega!

You look good. I've been weak for a while, but that's Leoward's son. The dominance is seeping out of your body. You seem motivated.

"Hahhhhn, Mr. Leggles, it's too cool!"

With his eyes on his heart, Doyle, who feels sick as he moves his body, leaves him alone and looks at Durakin in the sun.

If you'd like me to show you where Silver Grass is.

"... no, Hyiro-kun, that's just an asshole."

Legulus is in.

When I left the Western Hall, "Red Rain" was gone.

"It won't rain for a few hours. That said, it only rains around here. Don't worry, it won't fall where the Black Tree is."

Doyle will accompany you as a guide. Durakin's waist seemed pretty harsh, so he decided to cure himself in the Western Hall. Is this really the legendary "Rainbow Raven"...?

As soon as you exit the boundary, a thick fog will cover your surroundings. It's as if the fog itself is alive. He is walking around grabbing a rope that Doyle has prepared so that it doesn't come off. Mimil is the only one who has a Japanese arm.

"Actually, the Dukekeeper is producing this fog ~"

"Really?

"Ha-ha, Mr. Leggles. This is how we confuse the intruders and prevent them from reaching the battlefield."

Indeed, with such a thick fog, finding Black Tree Vega would be impossible. I can't see a meter away anyway.

"Ah, but don't worry, Dukekeeper is an intelligent monster, and he's fairly knightly spirited, so he won't be surprised all of a sudden"

Well, that would be helpful.

"But that doesn't mean you don't trust Legulus... can you really defeat him? They're really strong, aren't they?

"I don't know. It's just that I'm going to run into them with all my friends."

"I have been told to keep an eye on Mr Durakin, so unfortunately I am unable to provide satisfactory support. I can give you some advice....."

"Yeah, I'm just happy with that feeling, Doul. Thank you."

"Ahhh! Oh no! As a wife, I certainly want to help my husband! And if I play a good woman here, I'm sure Legulus will be my prisoner. You love me so much that you can't get out anymore. Then I wouldn't be Mrs. King of the Beasts! Ah ~ I hear that the" Lion Clan "is passionate, so I'm sure you'll love me so much that I'm on the verge of breaking up... yeah, it's more like a reward! Don't be stupid. I'm a camembert! Ahhn, I want to get married soon!

The sun is dazed by the bandaged woman who explodes such delusions.

"... Legulus, that's good. Now [Pacion] is safe too."

"Eh!? Hiro, what are you talking about!?

Doul will be your sister-in-law. If possible, I want you to show me your face. "

"Hey, Mimil!?

"I'm sure Mr. Leowood will be delighted."

"Even Petits, it's a misunderstanding!

"Congratulations, Doyle!

"Thank you, Nicky! I'll be happy!

"Ahh... somehow buried from the outer moat..."

I meant to tease you, but as the conversation progressed, it was a day when I thought it would be interesting to get married.

I imagined Legulus who would be dropping his shoulders, and I felt a little sympathy, but basically it had nothing to do with me, so I decided to go through with it.

At that time, Doyle's feet stopped walking at the beginning, causing them to hit each other.

"Huh? Ah, Doul? What's the matter with you?

Leggles, who was walking just behind Doul, called out.

"Surely there are two rocks lined up around here."

"Really? What's wrong with that?

"It goes into that rock gap, and beyond that....."

"... you mean you have a Dukekeeper?

"Yes"

The tea atmosphere has been cleaned up. The tension runs uniformly. Dowl senses and looks around.

"There was. Please come and talk about it."

She walks out again. It is because she sees the Spirit in this fog that she continues unabated. Otherwise, no matter the color of the sun, it is certain that others will completely lose their way.

As you walk, you can see the presence of rocks at both ends. Indeed, if you walk like this now, you can see that you're walking through a rock gap. It's just cramped enough for one person to get through.

After walking for a while, the fog somehow fades. In front of you in the darkness, you can see the light coming from somewhere.

That's the way out.

More tension. Especially since Legulus seems to be the most nervous, his face is stretched. It's not impossible because there's a test ahead.

I jumped into the light and stunned my face unexpectedly. After getting used to it, I was finally able to figure out where they were.

"--This is it!?

It was a fantastic space.

Silver petals carried by the gentle wind. The red-brown earth spreads, followed by lush plants and flowers, among which large trees grow. Even though I had been in a dark fog a while ago, this was a place lit by a bright sun that didn't show me anything.

And right in front of the sun colorers, about half of the rocks buried in the ground peek at their faces, and on top of them are sitting with their hugs crossed. That must be the Dukekeeper.

"Intruder...."

Surprisingly, its existence opened its mouth.

I wonder what to explain with my mouth...

The guard in front of me. It looks like a monster, and it looks like a human being.

Human form... yes, human form. He is about two meters tall. Equipped with plate armor, it carries two swords on its waist.

What's strange is that the face doesn't have the shape that it should be, as if it were even on a surface that isn't depicted. Eyes, nose and mouth. That's why it looks like a monster.

(But did you...?

Yes, that's the biggest question. Monsters don't speak native languages. At least I've never met him on a journey before.

"Hey, paranoid woman, is this Dukekeeper?

"Who is the delusional woman!

"You admit that you replied."

"Buuuu! Master Legulus!"

"Ahahah, uh... Doul, is he the keeper?

"Exactly!"

This woman... I'm stunned by Doyle, who speaks easily when dealing with Leggles in Japanese.

"This is Dukekeeper, guardian of the Black Tree Plateau."

"But I talked.

"That's why he's so unique."

…… What do you mean, paranoid girl?

"Ah, you're a really rude person... hah, okay. His unique trait is human intelligence. This type of unique monster is never uncommon. I hear that there are many monsters that are also SSS ranked. Besides, he is ranked as an SS rank, but his strength is not comparable to that of an SSS rank."

This has become more and more troublesome. If you don't have the same intelligence as people, the way you fight becomes very cynical.

A normal monster would be able to catch and defeat a simple trap, but intelligence means you can see it and think about using it instead.

(Well, I don't know how much thinking power you have.)

Still, human intelligence is based on the strength of the SSS rank. They probably have other powers.

(Isn't this just about Legulus...?

Still, we've decided to support you, so it's up to Leggles to make the call.

Then Leggles stepped forward and confronted the Dukekeeper.

"Dukekeeper! We are here for Black Tree Vega. If possible, give way to other negotiations instead of fighting!

One possibility first. It would be extremely low, but how to answer Legulus' question...

"I'll be the watchman. If you want the Black Tree, go beyond yourself."

Duke Keeper is very hostile. A manifestation of will not to pass from here on.

"Looks like we have to fight. Hiiro-kun"

"Yeah, do it."

"I'm watching you ~"

Doyle switched back to audience mode.

Mimil, stay with him.

"Ha, yes!

Because it is the Spirit of the Rainbow Raven, there is no way to protect Mimil alone.

"I'm in charge, my prince?

"I know! Hiiro, focus on support, if you can improve everyone's physical abilities."

Leave it to me.

"Petites and Nicki will surround him with me and attack him together!

Ouch!

"Yes!

The color of the sun throws three letters of 'Acceleration' at them, as they are told.

"... alright! Thank you, Hiro! Let's go, both of you!

The three of them squeezed each other's distance with the call of Legulus. But the Duke Keeper just stood there doing nothing without rushing.

(Strange... don't you have a defensive stance?

A suspicion that comes to mind. I thought I could pull out the sword that was hanging on my waist, but that's not the case. I'm just standing on the spot in a natural body.

By contrast, the three of them have dramatically increased their speed due to the letter "Acceleration", so they quickly succeeded in surrounding the opponent. Legulus pulled out the sword he was carrying on his hips.

"─ Water Fang !

A large amount of water wrapped in the sword was slashed and approached the Dukekeeper. Then,

"― Ice Fang !

When Petites throws a small object like a sword, the ice covers it and increases its sharpness by a few steps.

Blast Fist Kick Ceremony !

Nicki releases magic from his right fist. Ambush by Ranged Attacks. The moment they hit, the sun colour didn't miss Dukekeeper's fingers twitching.

When the sword is pulled out in a flash-like motion, the blue sword line shines towards the three attacks. From the Dukekeeper, who has slashed and torn three strikes brilliantly, the face of the Japanese color is stretched with a burst of killing energy.

"Coming!

As the sun cried out loudly, Dukekeeper kicked up the earth and captured Nicki as a target. Nicki was thundered by a thunderous movement that didn't suit that giant body.

"Shit! Nicki! Unleash Blast Fist on the ground!

"Ha, yes!

Nicki hit his fist on the ground because of the color of the sun. At that moment, the Duke Keeper, who was heading towards the ground with an explosion, stopped for a while and then retreated to the back.

Legulus approached him from behind. However, Dukekeeper turned around and grabbed Legulus' sword lightly with the sword he held in his left hand. Immediately attempts to attack Legulus while arcing with a sword held in his right hand.

However, the sword is struck by a chunk of ice that stretches out from the feet. Petites did it.

Further, Nicki jumped through the blast smoke from behind the Duke Keeper.

"Uh-oh! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A series of tsunami-like attacks. Everyone thought the opponent would be damaged by this.

Suddenly, however, the body of the Dukekeeper becomes lean and the muscles swell up. A red aura bursts out of your body, and you rotate your body as if it were a solitude.

"Wow!?

"Wow!?

Legulus and Nicki, who were near him, blew up with the wind pressure created by the rotation. A small crater is created around the Dukekeeper.

"Whoa... isn't that the" Tai Red Suite "?

A Dukekeeper who uses a technique similar to "Tai Red Suite" appears in the Japanese eye. I feel a huge amount of energy that has changed since then.

"I'll do it a little bit, gentlemen. It's been a long time since I've been serious."

Apparently, it's still far from being serious.

"Gh...."

Legulus wakes up and stares at the opponent.

"Strong... That's the Guardian of the Black Tree." But we also need the Black Tree! I will definitely beat you to get Black Tree!

"Well, it doesn't seem like it's for personal gain or lust. But I'm also the keeper. I can't just give you the Black Tree for any reason."

The Dukekeeper rearranges the sword.

"You mean show me your strength?

"... let me admit it, Prince of the Lions."

Red Aura focuses on Dukekeeper's sword. And as it spins again, a red slash strikes the surrounding Legulus like a ripple spreading through the water.

At that time, however, the three bodies float flutteringly and ascend into the sky. The three of them were confused without knowing what was going on, but they quickly turned their gaze at the same time as they knew who did it.

Of course it was the sun that saved them. The Dukekeeper also turned his face towards the sun.

"... what did you do?

"I don't know, if you're intelligent, why don't you think about it yourself?

…………

At the tip of the index fingers of both hands in Japanese,

"The Three" and "Flight"

characters are emerging. You can consume the magic of the sun and manipulate them to fly, but it's inefficient because you have to concentrate on it. So....

"You guys! You're free to fly! Get used to this situation right now!

That said, for the first time ever, Legulus and Petits have had difficulty flying. It's just Nicki.

"That's enough! ― Explosive Fist Boom Ceremony !

I've had them go through it several times before, so I'm showing them a stunning flight and throwing an attack at the Duke Keeper. However, the Dukekeeper also shows agile movements and avoids them. Now it's rushing towards the Japanese color.

"It seems smarter to crush you first!

Decline the support role first. It is the most strategic tool,

"Don't lick me."

Put your hands together with the bread.

"--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A red aura like the Dukekeeper wraps the sun's body. Pull out the Blade Zangeki and head towards the Duke Keeper.

"― Thermal Wave Slashing !

Fires a slash. Looks like an unexpected attack, aggressively crosses the sword and guards it... the moment the attack strikes, an explosion occurs and the Dukekeeper blows back.

"I didn't say that. My attack will explode."

It was the Japanese colour of the supporters who took the lead.

The Dukekeeper blew backwards due to the effects of the Japanese "Thermal Wave Slash", but it didn't seem to cause much damage and landed brilliantly without falling over.

Nicki's "Blast Fist, Blast Ceremony."

"Mmm!?

Nicki believed the Dukekeeper would blow backwards if it was sunny. Prior to his landing, he had released the "Blast Fist" ceremony.

The Dukekeeper crosses the sword to defend it, but the explosive force it uses blows it back again.

"Uhhhhh! Now I'm going to knock you right in!

I want to tell you not to say that, but I don't say anything because I know that straight and simple Nicki will almost unconsciously run.

Nicki glides from the sky into the Duke Keeper. At that time, however, Leguls was observing the situation calmly.

"Rather than blowing it up, I jumped from myself...!

In other words, the Duke Keeper was not blown away by the "Blast Fist/Blast Ceremony", but jumped behind himself to miss the damage. Looking at it, the posture is not broken at all compared to the time of the sun.

"No! Petits, cover me!

Yes!

"Freeze my water! Water Beads ! --Shape, waterfall!

Regulus moves his right hand over the Duke Keeper, releasing a spherical mass of water from his right hand and stopping over the Duke Keeper. When you think you've played, you slap the Dukekeeper's body like a waterfall.

"Gumu!?

Focusing on Nicki's attack, or delaying Legles' response to the attack, causes his body to bend forward. Nicki also said, "Eh!?" and stopped rushing in surprise.

"All right, now, Petits!

Petites threw a sword-shaped weapon at the waterfall with a call from Legulus and froze it all at once. The Dukekeeper buried in the waterfall was also ice pickled.

The three of them descend from the sky to the ground, but Nicki sneaks up on Leggles unhappy.

"Lord Leggles! It's really my turn!

At that time, the tips and Nicki's head were dashed.

"Funnuu! Yes, it hurts, Master!

"Stupid disciple, you were saved by Legulus."

"... to?

"Your attack certainly blew him up. But it's on purpose."

"Hee... on purpose?

"That's right. I was deliberately trying to jump back and escape the damage, and I was trying to get you to get a counter."

…………

"Leguls realized it and attacked to steal his movements. You're always telling me to make good judgments about the situation. If I hadn't gotten in there, I'd have been counterattacked."

Uuu ~...

Nicki lowers her head when she sprays her body over Leggles with regret.

"I'm sorry too, Mr. Leggles!

"Haha, that's fine. I have a lot to fail. You just have to get stronger and stronger."

"Ha, yes! Thank you!

"Mr. Leggles, Nicki, it's more than that..."

Petites' voice draws back tension between the two. The Duke Keeper, who was supposed to be in the ice, destroyed the ice and stormed. It's not just an assault.

Choosing a method that moves quickly to the left and right while disturbing.

Don't move, you guys.

The sun color uses the letter "Defense" to create a magical wall around the four of them.

Dukekeeper crosses his sword and swings it out.

A seal occurs between Buzzy, the wall and the sword, and the Japanese defense field gradually cracks.

"Damn, two characters is tough. You guys, back off!

A row that simultaneously takes the Japanese word and distance backwards. At the same time, the wall is torn apart by the opponent, and Dukekeeper's sword decapitates the earth.

That's an SS-ranked monster after all. I hope you're going to break the two letters quickly. "

Such a presence had certainly existed in the past. And so is that Leoward. At least it's Leoward's strength and a good match.

"─ Transformation of running water !

"─ Ice and snow transformation !

Transformation by Legulus and Petites. This technique, which turns your body into water and ice, is a maneuver to neutralize simple physical attacks.

They enter the Dukekeeper's pocket at once. However, the opponent also reacted sufficiently to pierce each of the two swords in a counter mood. The sword pierces both bodies.

I wonder if it works!

With Leggles swinging his sword, Petites makes an ice sword and slashes the Dukekeeper.

However, the opponent's reflection was sharp, and the moment he thought the attack was not working, he jumped back and tried to avoid it.

But it seemed like it was a very slow step, and they were slashed, and two red muscles ran from the body, which was a thick mass of muscles.

Nicky, it's a chase!

"I'll leave it to you!

Nicki, who was already ready before Legules' signal, jumped over their backs and approached the Dukekeeper.

"Kh! I won't let you do it!

The Duke Keeper tries to rotate his body again and blow Nicki away, but the rotation stops on the way.

Exactly stunned. Dukekeeper discovers something like a thread around his body.

"This is...!?

The colour of the sun had already started.

"... I won't spin it."

Red letters shine at Dukekeeper's feet. It's a "adhesive yarn." Countless cohesive threads stretching out of the earth restrained his movement as he rotated.

"Knock it in with all your might!

"Yes! One Shot Kill-" Blast Fist "!

The Dukekeeper, who lost his escape route, took Nicki's fist properly. A massive explosion has occurred and the blast is blowing Nicki away from the present. Legulus and Pettis will take her.

Nice work, Nicky.

Yeah, it was a big success.

Ehehe, you did it!

"Haha, but that's Hiro, when did you set it up?

Legulus' questions are flying.

"It's already been installed everywhere."

Shortly after the battle began, Dukekeeper stole his eyes and set various traps as placement characters everywhere. Whenever an enemy enters, activate it.

As a supporter, I work neatly in Japanese.

"But don't be alarmed. I don't think it's no damage, but I don't know if I can still defeat it."

The three of them stared at the exploding smoke again with caution of the color of the sun. A shadow that floats there. As the smoke gradually clears up, the Dukekeeper still appears tied to the thread.

It's still not intact. Legulus and Pettis were slashed, and Nicki's Blast Fist definitely hurt.

The equipped plate armor has also been shattered.

"... I see, it's amazing how much each move has been combined to enhance it. It reminds me of an unparalleled workmanship of intruders."

However, I didn't think the Japanese colour would work so well.

Anyway, Nicki started teaming up with Legulus and Pettis. Still, we're working together so well because we're sending them eye contact before Leggles gives them precise instructions.

In addition to that, Leggles is observing the situation at the required location and acting as two supporters. He is not as powerful as Leoward personally, but his skill in using his allies well deserves to be amazed.

This is the birth of a different beast king than Leowood.

It may be of the Yveam type. How to fight to bring out the power of others. I wonder if that is his true culmination.

"Beautiful. Can I try one thing?

Leggles is asking about it.

"... what?

"Next time, if one of you can stop my attack, I'll give way."

Now, it's getting interesting.

"A blow? Oh, me?

Sudden Dukekeeper proposal. Show Legulus how obviously confused he is.

"Dear Left, I want you to try to prevent my blow."

"... why?

"Lord, are you a 'lion'?

"Yes"

"I once confronted a man who would become a Jingwood."

"Hey, first generation!?

"He also showed me his strength. Show me your strength, O ye that will be with him."

To be honest, if we ignore such suggestions and knock them all down, we will eventually win. Even though the opponent is not serious yet, if the color comes out before the day, there should be a match.

But the opponent is nothing but a hateful enemy. This is just the challenger, and the other side is the trial side. It can be judged as one of the challenges to act according to the opponent's thoughts.

(Now, what about the prince.....)

Petits and Nicki are also wandering their gaze to seek the opinions of Flyers and Leggles.

"What if I can't stop it?

"Of course, I want you to understand that I'm leaving here."

……

This means that losing will not be tolerated if you win a match. Silver Grass, a delicious ingredient for Japanese color, cannot be dropped in front of your eyes. If Legulus can't do it, he thinks he can.

Legulus seems to be lost in his choice and his expression is harsh.

"Of course, you all have a choice to keep fighting me. You have a better chance of winning. This is nothing but my self. Now, how do you respond?

In response to Duke Keeper's question, Legles once looked around everyone's face. Petites and Nicki nodded lightly.

That means they're willing to do whatever Leguls wants. The gaze turned to the sun.

The color of the sun stares straight into Leggles' eyes with his arms tied together. If you want to fight, you can definitely win. I don't know if it was passed on to him, but when I smiled slightly, I met Duke Keeper again.

"A blow... should I prevent a blow?

"Oh, but let me just say one thing. Transformation doesn't make sense.

Legulus' face is strong. This means it's not just a physical attack. The biggest attack of a Unique Monster will probably be unleashed in SS Rank. I don't know how to endure it... it might be troublesome to prevent it even in the sun if it is properly received.

"Brother Leg... I believe you"

"Good luck! Master Legulus!

A little further away, Mimir and Doyle are each trying to deliver words to him.

He snorts his throat once at their thoughts. You can see your body trembling slightly. We must prevent unexpected attacks. If it fails, it's Leguls' fault. Such pressure must be attacking him.

But when he hit the Duke Keeper with his cool, powerfully open eyes,

"Ok! Subject to that condition! Please!

I made up my mind.

"Mm-hmm. Then take a little distance."

"... yes"

At the same time as Leggles decided, the Japanese colour canceled and erased the yarn holding the Duke Keeper.

Only the two move away from the colours of the sun. Face-to-face. Are they about twenty meters apart from each other?

"I'll start when I'm ready."

According to Duke Keeper, Legles breathes heavily and deeply again. Grasp the sword in both hands tightly and accumulate power.

"... I'm ready"

"... so..."

At that moment, the red aura rises from Duke Keeper's body with the momentum of a volcanic eruption.

Even though it's supposed to be a long way away, the atmosphere will tremble to tingling and a sunny body.

(I feel so powerful...!

It is synonymous with using the "Tai Red Suit" and wrapping up the biggest "Red Qi".

The red aura that stood up with the sound of a tinnitus focused on the double sword. Just by being there, the current of power leaks out, causing the earth to grow winds.

"It's drifting... no, not this one."

Leguls interrupts trying to deal with The Conversion. I guess you remembered the conversion I was told you wouldn't understand.

"Haaaaaa!

Legulus also seeps the aura from the body, but when compared, the Dukekeeper is obviously bigger. If you run into it like this, the outcome of the match is more obvious than looking at the fire.

"... let me show you the power of the younger generation..."

The power of the Duke Keeper increases even further. As everyone swallows their words and watches quietly, Legulus and Dukekeeper begin their journey.

Leguls knew he couldn't be as tall as Leowood as a samurai. That strength of Leoward was born from heaven with qualities. I don't have it.

(I'm inferior to Lenion when compared to simple power)

My brother is blessed with the qualities of battle. I think that's what Leoward has. So I thought it would be better for Lenion, the powerful man, to become the next king of beasts.

But Leoward says, "The next generation is you."

And Lenion also supports Legulus, but Legulus still doesn't know why he wants so much value from himself.

From now on, it's not power. To change this world, you need strength of mind, not strength. You are stronger than anyone else. You say you're not confident, but the militia, the militia... and we both believe you're the next king. Do you know why?

When Leoward asked me, I couldn't find an answer.

That's because everyone is attracted to your vessel. Perhaps Lenion would be better off if it were a simple force. But you have a vessel that knows the pain of others and accepts it like I do. I'm going to need that big vessel of yours from now on. It is not strong because it is powerful. I'm strong because I have a big heart. Be strong, my son. "

Leguls decided to work hard every day, inspired by Leoward. I've never missed it before, but now I want to go even higher.

That's why everyone has been trying to train and grow themselves alone on a quiet night. I still don't know what it's like to be strong, but I thought I'd believe Leoward believed in me.

(I haven't found the answer yet... but I got something from everybody!

In a moment, Legulus' body shines.

"Let's go! Young" Lion Clan "!

I feel a stream of lethargy and power that seems to be brutal from the Duke Keeper. Your whole body feels frightened and feels dead.

As he crosses his sword, he slowly leans against his upper body. There is a considerable distance. But in my senses, I remember the illusion of being pointed at a sword right in front of my eyes. The feeling of being held by life.

Dukekeeper's arms muscles are swollen up. A crack runs through the earth at his feet.

"Take it! ------Phoenix Cross!

Two blades swinging down like light. The red slash that is thrown from there. It changes shape to create a phoenix-like shape and leads to Legulus.

"I can't lose either! Uh-oh! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Legulus swings his sword again. Purple stained water is thrown vertically from the sword.

Two attacks collide around the center of both. The earth spreading down becomes dust with the sound of shredding your strength. But that is clearly the effect of Dukekeeper's attack.

Evidence shows that Legles' "Flash of Purple Water" is gradually being pushed back.

"Not yet!

Leguls slashes again and again, but the momentum of the Phoenix Cross never diminishes. If that fire bird wears red clothes like this, it will disappear without trace.

(I... can't get stronger after all...!

But at that time, the faces of my friends came into my eyes. Petites and Mills stare anxiously at Legulus.

(I'm... I'm...)

The body trembles with fear in front of the approaching phoenix.

"Be strong, my son."

Leoward's words are once again overwhelming my mind. The faces of those who believe will appear one after the other.

"I 'm--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At that time, I felt a ripple spreading through my head. At the same time, a name comes to mind.

"Ke... show it! -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"

There was a crack in the space behind Legulus, and along with the sound of the glass breaking, the space was slashed and a blue-purple beast appeared. It is somehow similar to Leowood's Cisiliga.

"What!? Awake!?

Dukekeeper's confused voice. Not only he but also the Japanese color are stunned.

"Hahahahah... oh, I've got the" Ritual of Phenomenon "too...! Please... Liaug... you can use all of me... to defeat this!

A large amount of aura from Legulus is poured into the Liaug. As Liog's body grew bigger, he kicked the earth and stormed into the phoenix.

Both attacks clash again. But now the phoenix's movement stops sharply.

They both roar. But still, is there still a lack of power? A slight push out of the liog. Legulus is also gradually getting conscious.

"Good luck! Brother Leg!

The voice of my dear sister evokes the sanity of Legulus.

"As my brother... as the next king of beasts... I can't lose! I... I'm beyond you! Nhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Liaug adds more power. The eyes bite red and glowing on the neck of the phoenix. But the Phoenix didn't lose either, wrapping the Liog in flames.

And...

An explosion occurs as if a missile had been dropped, and Leguls and Dukekeeper are blown away by the blast.

Nicki and the others aggressively used the letter 'Defense', so they were unaffected by the blast. And the Mills, of course.

Carefully, a giant crater was born in the land that was supposed to be flat. On the outside, Legulus and Dukekeeper fell down just to face each other.

It was the Dukekeeper who got up first. Looking down at the crater, place the sword in your hand into your sheath. Then slowly walk towards Legulus.

"Gu... uu"

Leguls feels incredibly rattled. It's like swimming in water all day long and your whole body is being attacked by muscle pain. It hurts and moves a billion times.

However, he still learns that the Dukekeeper is approaching and wakes his torso while distorting his face.

The Dukekeeper stood looking down at the Leggles. She is silent.

"Hahahahaha...."

Leguls is just looking up at him with his breath disturbed. Then he quickly reached out.

"... eh?

"... fufu, that was a big deal, young" Lion Clan "."

"Ah... I see!

"Ah, this trial - you win."

Leguls heard the words, freed himself from tension and fell into the darkness. After all, I'm sorry I couldn't take his hand...
