Kuro no Maou

"... what are you going to do?

My unleashed pseudo-complete steel bullet (full metal jacket) had been stopped by a reverse triangular white shield I had seen before.

The difference is that there is a slight crack in the shield.

I'm sure I can.

"Demon Bullets (Barrett Arts)"

A light wave of tact, like the conductor, reveals a pitch-black bullet in the spiral surrounding the body.

Thousands of bullets here all consist of the highest current hardness of black magic, and if you use the power of tact to shoot them out, they are far more powerful than normal 'anti-materials'.

"All Bullets Fired (Full Burst)"

Shoot it out in one breath toward Saliel.

The sound of fire at the same time as the black muzzle flash, and the crushing sound of Sariel wearing the floor of the wall on which he stands, echoes on a quiet night.

In a nutshell, the dust rises, blocks sight, but we know that Sariel is not already there without looking.

Shortly before the launch, I did see him throw himself outside the walls.

"I'll never let you get away with it -"

I'll eject the anchor at my feet and I'll follow Sariel and jump right off the walls.

"- You can't let them get away with it!

When you throw yourself into the universe, what spreads beneath your eyes is the grassland that just ran 500 meters in all directions and nothing.

There is nothing to hide, and there is not even a need to hide himself, and Sariel stands on the spot like a ghost in his white outfit.

"Demon Sword (Sword Arts)"

Grab the wire with your left hand and shake it up with your right hand holding the tact.

Three blackened long swords (long swords) are called out of the robes that swoop in the air as openings in shadow space.

I bought it at the Blacksmith Workshop in Iles Village, all blackened with the same standard sword.

"Pierce!

Throw three black swords at Saliel before my body reaches the ground.

One draws an arc to the left, one to the right, the last one a straight shortest distance, and each of the three strikes from left to right and front to Saliel, even as they draw separate tracks.

――

I didn't hear a voice, but at the same time as I saw Saliel's mouth whine something, my legs finally reached the ground and a mild impact rushed through my entire body.

The wire slowed down somewhat, so it landed without gaps -

Baggin!!

"Huh!?

The sound sounded right at my feet, it was the white pile of Sariel that I saw back then, stitched through the hem of my robe to the wall.

A total of four white piles have been stabbed, I guess I let them go to stop me from moving if I thought none of them had hit my body.

But when the hell did this white pile fly in, I didn't see it at all.

Moving only her eyes to confirm it and glancing back at Sariel again, she had a fine spear in the same color and texture on her left hand as the white pile.

All three of my blackened swords line the tip as if they had caught a river fish in the middle of their bodies.

And just as I saw this before, the blackened sword instantly invaded Saliel's white magic, shattering and disappearing like ash.

"You're a monster..."

I don't know when he stabbed me. It's called a white pile, it's called a lightly destroyed blackened sword, it makes me realize the difference in power to make.

Little by little, regret and fear spread in my heart, driven by the urge to still cry and start begging for my life.

Sariel opened her mouth slowly as she approached me.

"Will you stop resisting?

Squeeze your back teeth to stop you from inadvertently about to vomit affirmative words.

"I'm not going to harm you."

With those words, I resent myself terribly for being reflexively relieved.

"Adult, could you please retire?

Running away with Lily, an overly attractive suggestion, but I refuse to accept it with all my might.

"Ha..."

Pity, laughing in a slightly trembling voice.

"Who would miss an opportunity like this?"

Absurd your voice and inspire yourself.

Take off the jaws while tearing the place worn on the white pile forcefully from robe to robe.

Wave the tact, forming the bullet again, and at the same time call ten of the same long swords from the shadow space that extends from your feet.

In addition, he holds the curse "Curse" "Tsukuba" with his left hand.

"Sariel, I'll kill you here and stop the Crusaders!

"Really..."

With all my magic and killing power directly in front of me, that beautiful face doesn't change like a statue, and I don't even try to put a fine spear in my left hand.

Well, that's my chance to afford it.

"Let's go!

"I am the Commander-in-Chief of the Crusades."

Sariel did say that.

Had it not been for one word, I would have run down the street with Lily by now.

But I recklessly sold a fight to Saliel, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

If 'assassination' means killing for a gap, as written in that dictionary, now is the time for Saliel's ‘gap'.

While at the head of the Crusades, he appeared single with no escort, and if there was an assassin after her, it would be a better situation than nothing else.

In fact, even now, the soldiers will not rush to Sariel's support, but remain one-on-one.

Even more conveniently, Saliel won't try to kill me for some wacko.

If she cares about it, she can definitely pierce her heart and die instantly, proof is that she was made to die without any resistance.

Even this robe is a better defensive luxury than steel plate mails, but that white pile pierced lightly, to the point where I suspected for a moment that the robe had lost its magic and become just a cloth.

In short, there is a danger to your life, but now is your chance to defeat Sariel, whether or not to visit again.

But why am I the one who's risking his life to challenge that chance?

Two months ago, I didn't have anything more important than my own life, other than putting it at risk.

But now I have something that I want to protect with my life.

Lily and Iles Village, you're absolutely right when it comes to short relationships, but still making people who call themselves the Crusaders like each other seems unforgivable.

I don't trust this cross-bearing piece of crap the most in the other world, I don't know what God wanted, but it's like he's already saying he'll kill, take, and destroy it in God's name.

In the end, the Crusaders have become massive until they occupy Daedalus.

More than the Daedalus army has fought and lost, the strength of the Crusaders is considerable, and even the armies of other countries do not know if they can win.

But what happens if we kill the head of the Crusaders here?

I don't know the details of what's going on with the Crusader chain of command, but any organization would be disrupted if the Admiral died.

Sariel, I don't know how much authority an individual will have, but I'm pretty sure she's at the edge of a great battle in battle.

If the top falls, there should probably be a great deal of madness in the Crusaders' plans for invasion, or the invasion itself could be called off.

At the very least, it would have such a huge effect that it would not be comparable to the effect I would get from fighting the Crusaders from the front.

But that's also the story if this assassination succeeds.

I know a hundred that Sariel is terribly strong, and if it's on a level, he should have about 10 and a hundred openings at least.

But no matter how magical the world is, this is not the world of games, there is a way to ‘just kill' without extending power or magic.

I don't care what kind of force I push through here, killing Saliel, or getting into a fight.

If you can protect Lily and the village with that, I'll give you as many lives as I want!
