Kuraki Kyuuden no Shisha no Ou

Lesson 25: Rebellion ②

A curse is a miracle different from the magic that creates a strong passion.

The difference between curse and magic is easy. Magic has its magic, but the curse doesn't have it.

When you have emotions strong enough to pervert the flesh, it seems to have power and turn it into a 'curse'. Therefore, the sorcerer fears a curse beyond his control.

The curse begins with powerful, strong emotions because it does not possess any insignificant artistic logic, but is thus disorderly and demands a great price from the person.

The curse is similar to prayer. The only difference is whether the sentiment is toward the negative or the positive.

I literally expected the cannibal "Curse Flame" to be the product of a curse shortly after I finished the fight and returned to Monica's house. And after interrogation of Monica, I came to a conviction.

In the first place, I was defenselessly exposed to the flames of Bram to cannibalism because I had sometimes estimated the character of Bram to be low, but I had never heard of the phantom beast "Manticore" throwing up flames.

I was wary of poison needles, I knew I would have hook nails and fangs, I knew I would manipulate magic, but I had never heard of only flames.

That was no ordinary flame. Vampires have a huge amount of magic in their bodies, so most magic doesn't work, and just flames don't work.

I expected it to be due to the curse because Hebram's arming was halfway through.

There is no way that a cannibal cannibal who prepared and showed even instantly flowing water during the battle doesn't know that vampires have silver as their weakness. And there's no way Hebram, number two in this Demon King's Army, can't prepare a silver weapon. Now Demon King Reinell was equipped with a silver hook claw.

Manticore is a phantom beast. Originally, like Reinell, a cowardly beast who wasn't supposed to be good at silver didn't use silver weapons, so it was only natural to assume what was the only reason.

Perhaps the curse perverted Hebram. My weakness is a silver weapon, but Hebram's weakness was also a silver weapon. So Hebram couldn't use a silver weapon.

I'm sure the curse turns creatures into demons. Me and Oliver don't like silver. And that Albatos, who hated me, didn't use a silver weapon either.

It was easy to take away The Curse Flame.

The cannibals were wary of me, but they didn't know I wasn't a pure 'vampire'. Vampires can't go in the house without being invited, but I'm not the lower vampire. A strong sense of repellence occurs, but that's all. Signs disappear in The Diving Shadow, killing unmotivated guards and sneaking into the cave.

I never wanted to do it, such as bite the same sex, but Hebram is not human, so it is no count. In the first place, Hebram would not have wanted to suck blood even if she was a female, so it is not enough to take the difference between a female and a male beast.

The 'Curse Flame' I took from the cannibals was a tremendous power. Selzard couldn't even scream and became dust.

Monica gave me the information - I'm also convinced that with this Demon King Army, the only 'cannibal' can do damage to Demon King Reinell.

The lizardmen (Lizardmans) surrounding the leader's death take a step back.

I exhale vigilantly and with all my strength. [M]

The "Curse Flame" mixed in my breath was much weaker than what Hebram was using. Some mouths may be small, but if this is a normal flame, it's also a suspicious level of whether you can light a cigarette.

Besides this ability - I'm very hungry.

According to the information I heard before I killed him, the price of 'Curse Flame' seems to be cannibalism. There was also a reason why Hebram had singled out humans so much that he was disgusted internally.

If we don't keep eating large quantities of humans, we die. That's the price for the power of this' curse flame '. But I'm already dead, so it doesn't really matter. [M]

The abilities of Curse Steel have been carefully designed.

What matters in this ability is that I, the bearer of power, am not just a creature.

The price of Albatos' power was that his presence gradually approached the beast. I still don't seem to be eroded, but maybe that's because there's a difference in the power of the base between 'human' and 'vampire'.

And the price of "Curse Flame" is death, but I'm already dead. Hebram burned in "The Curse Flame," but I won't.

One of the lizards with a spear screams.

"Or, surround, never let it pass!

"I'm scared, I smell it."

Compared to earlier, it's a move that lacks glory. The difference is just lethal in a state where there is a difference in power.

There is an absolute will to win over character. The rematched 'cannibalism' was also weak. If we had fought properly, we would have been able to buy some time, but pitifully the battle had been decided so lightly.

That's also probably why vampires with strong killing instincts can be scared.

When I breathed small and suppressed my rough killing instincts, I stepped toward the lizards surrounding me.

§

The outpost ended without any further struggle. We heard about the anomaly and some reinforcements came from outside, but we didn't talk.

I reaffirmed the use of new powers in action. [M]

"Curse Flame" is strong. No reach and no momentum, but still strong enough to be too much.

"Curse Flame" is a flame that will not go away until you burn down the subject.

The detailed performance is unknown, but given the cannibalistic character of creating this curse, the subject would be 'life'.

The flamed creature, even if the flame was as small as the fire powder, burns and turns into dust at once.

The problem is that this ability is not invincible.

Perhaps this ability is resisted. If the curse is a demonic force, it won't go through the Knights of the End manipulating positive forces, and it's ineffective against undead, a product of stronger curses like mine.

And - perhaps, even Reinell opponents don't exert enough power.

I don't think there's any zero power at all, but if Bram is stronger than Reinell in the first place, there's no way he's spoiling number two. Hebram was a cowardly beast but at the same time had high self-esteem.

The dragon is a powerful phantom beast, whose flesh is said to be highly resistant to all attacks. It is not hard to imagine that Reinell also has the equivalent power.

I asked the captive end knight to cooperate because I had considered it so much in the first place, but it was going to be a pretty tough fight for me with only the "Curse Flame" weaker than Hebram.

I wanted to try after adding a little more strength, but I could imagine that sipping the blood buildup I could do around would not increase my strength. Given that Monica's blood, which is not human, has gained so much strength, blood suction is probably very important to see if the subject has a heterosexual form.

If I had enemies who could suck blood, I would have attacked you first, but this demon army, Monica, is the only cute girl...

When I thought about it in a real escape mood, Fufu's castle rocked heavily. Mixed with the sound of destruction, Dell's growl sounds slight.

Apparently, he walked in without waiting for me. I think it was an obvious induction, but is it simple, or should I call it pure again?

You can't even fight the way silver claws rely on regenerative abilities in your opponent as usual. If Dell dies, he's quite unlikely to win.

I hurried out of the castle.

Monica, according to the information, Reinell doesn't usually use the front door. I guess it's inconvenient to use a human castle with a large body and a lion's body.

Even when the cannibals and I were fighting, Reinell fell from the top.

If you look up at the castle made of a combination of stones, you can see the entrance and exit for Reinell far above. Just a human would have a hard time climbing, but I wouldn't be a problem right now. Kicking hard on the ground and jumping a dozen meters into a breath, he grabs the scaffold with his hand and goes up.

The entrance and exit were structured like a balcony, but without windows or doors.

The sound was heard right from the bottom. Use the Diving Shadow, erase the signs and look down between the thrones.

There was a battle going on there reminiscent of the showdown between Cenri and Lord.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!

Dell enters the mood of tearing and wields a steel sword.

The flesh once had the power of blessing that atrophied me only with signs.

Apparently, it's been warm enough up to here. The steel blade glowed with the energy of life, and the blow, even if not as graceful as a centimeter, had just enough beauty to be worthy of a hero.

I don't think I've been locked up in jail the whole time. Unexpectedly step back into the glow as if you were burning your life.

That's not good. That blade was polished to kill me, and if I were defenseless, I might be destroyed by one blow right now.

But with that in mind - Reinell was king of demons.

Reinell hadn't growled. I shouldn't have given it to you, but I feel tremendous pressure.

Golden lions are huger than albatross, and no matter how much they are forged up, humans and others are like bugs in front of their beauty. The blow from the armored silver claw is heavier and sharper than any slash I've ever seen, cutting through the walls of the castle as if it were a piece of paper.

The forefoot swing smashes the floor, and that's probably the main cause that's rocking the castle. Already in the Throne Room is a ruined look.

I was unwittingly enthralled in the battle. Now he's a vampire, but he left a little something called the heroic aspirations he used to have.

Close your eyes, observe your movements, and look for a winning chance.

Reinell is fast, heavy and powerful. Everything that can be done from that giant is an attack, and if this castle and other Reinell cares about it, it will collapse easily.

I haven't done anything unusual like cannibalism. Without a poison needle, I wouldn't throw up a flame, but with just one of its born powers, Reinell was an absolute strong man. I also know exactly what Hebram was following.

Dell was dodging the end of Reinell's offense. Anything that can be played is missed with a sword, and a blow with a nail is avoided. Dell's power hasn't even been boosted by blessings, not even at Reinell's feet. And the End Knight seems to understand that very well.

Monsters and humans. The human strength is that small circles work. I make the most of it.

The move was an expansion of what Cenri once showed us in a mock fight.

Good. But you still don't win alone.

Dell's sword had struck Reinell's body many times, but the Demon King has not shown any itching. While avoiding constant attacks, we may not have exhausted all our might, but it's probably quite difficult to kill Reinell by cutting it from the front with all our might. Too sturdy.

Are there any weaknesses... that's when the shock struck my body. An awesome noise shakes my whole body late.

Reinell growled. It was as if the world had exploded. The castle trembles. Piscilli and a crack enter the wall.

In front of me in confusion, Reinell waves his forefoot down against Dell.

Dell dodged it.

Even though he was supposed to have been more shocked than I was, Dell's expression was all calm.

The floor smashes and the castle trembles. At that time, Dell was stepping over the forefoot of a swinging linel.

Dell runs with his sword in his hands. I see the power of blessing concentrated at my feet.

Unexpectedly opens his eyes. Reinell's weapon is not just nails. The jaw is big enough to chew through the hebram and has all the fangs. Running out before that is not something you can do with the same guts.

Running up in three steps, he set the blade with both hands and Dell jumped. So I finally figured out Dell's purpose.

The body hair is hard enough to play the sword. Bone-protected heads would be even sturdier.

Dell was after - the eyeball.

The purpose is to have golden eyes that seem to atrophy just because they can be looked at. If Reinell is also an organism, he can't work out behind those eyes. There must be a fatal weakness - a brain.

From Reinell's giant, Dell's sword is like just a branch of a tree. But that's why I can aim for the eye.

Demon King's movement stops. The impending blade of black iron. Reinell narrows his eyes at the tip of it.

- And Reinell closed his eyes.

I couldn't believe it.

The swung blade slipped over his eyelid and bounced back wide. Dell's posture collapses, he is thrown out to the floor large enough to land in a rinse.

Reinell slowly opens his eyes. I don't have a scratch on my lid or my eyes. Maybe I couldn't put my strength into it because I didn't have legs on the ground, but it's too... too sturdy.

So the Demon King opened his mouth for the first time. Somewhere an aging sounding voice echoes among the half-baked kings.

"To that extent...... human. The end knight who hears the sound, too, to that extent? To that extent, challenge me... stupid..."

Bad. Kill me.

Reinell hasn't given his full strength yet. Dell is strong but human. It is also worn out. I just have to go.

Decide by surprise attack. You can erase the signs and stick them on your head from the shadows and feed them the "Curse Flame" from close range.

When I was ready in an instant, I jumped towards Reinell.
