Kuro no Maou

Episode 468: Element Master VS Sariel (3)

"... are you back"

If you open your eyes, there is no red landscape with a string of burning Purgatory Mountains there, and there is a snowy view of the Galahad Mountains where the wind blowing through stabs your skin cold. Regardless of the magnificence of nature, it was no stranger to the fact that it was a fierce battlefield, still sounded with fierce anger, swordworms and explosions, which did not make it feel like the scenic beauty of silver.

But no matter what kind of fierce fighting was going on around me right now, I couldn't afford to turn my attention to anything else.

Perhaps my battle isn't over yet.

So far, as planned.

Fiona's Purgatory Boundary (Inferno Fall) was lifted after me and Lily's "Demon Star Crash (Supernova)" unleashed all the destructive power they had there.

Most importantly, it would be almost miraculous to have Sariel hit the ultimate one-shot move, The Demon Crash (Supernova).

I did see a demon star blinking a disastrous red light in a huge mass of darkness fall over Saliel's head. In the moment of impact, he also confirms that the 'Light Wing S.H.I.E.L.D. (Aralux Aigis)' one wing he was letting unfold was fully crystallized.

Immediately after that, there was a dazzling explosion of light - to this day.

"Lily, are you okay?

"Hmmm...... Tabu"

Lily, who didn't seem to be doing very well, put a piece with a torn chest in it and was relieved to stick to my leg in a bit of a gutter.

Because it is Lily herself who activates the Fairy Combination (Excellion), and because the magic required for it is also consumed, it is only natural that she becomes so tired that she cannot sustain the transformation.

Most importantly, I myself have a heavy sense of fatigue and fatigue associated with this body. "The Demon Star Crash (Supernova)", of course, consumed gunshot magic during the merger, even if it wasn't, just fighting Saliel.

It is a tremendous amount of fuel consumption that is critical to fighting Matomo even when it comes to me and Lily.

"What about Chrono?

"I'm not as worn out as Lily, but it's pretty tough"

You won't have to bother to report that you're back in the man's body and gear properly. During the Rich Crusade, it was confirmed that it would be undone by unmerging.

But I was also a little nervous. I was wondering if it was some kind of mistake to get back out of the woman's body. It really, totally turns into a female body during the merger.

"Still, it was worth it..."

Because of my body, which was heavier than lead, I exhaled a little bitter breath, and even as I returned to the real world, I still gazed at the black-smoke bursting ground.

The smoke spraying up thick, hiding Saliel on the other side of it. Or I'd like to think it's gone.

"Shit, I knew you were still alive."

A whirlpool of drifting black smoke runs a white glow in Russia.

Those two colors never mixed together and greyed, and they were tucked together so that white aura was tangled in the shaking smoke.

The white girl appears as she releases a monster-like presence that comes back from the eruption.

"But I'm sorry if the boulder's intact."

Saliel, who appeared again, seemed to recall me worn out in a duel with the Eighth Apostle Eye in the streets.

I can't see any fading in the aura of white magic coming from me, but still, it's obvious that my body isn't following me.

"Ha... ha..."

That Sariel is disturbing my breath.

A slight, faint change, but the red eyes were slightly lightheaded, finally the faceless mask collapsed, reflecting the colour of fatigue.

But the biggest change, the one that convinces her of the damage, is her body.

Now Sariel has nothing but decorative white underwear. In other words, the pure white coat that flickered beautifully in that breeze had completely disappeared. Just like I once lost The Devil's Embrace (Bafomet Embrace).

Exposing her coal-fired yet white and fine nudity to prove that she is biological, not a doll, she is terribly miserable and would draw more sympathy from people than any more.

But I don't leave him alone in that outfit to be fooled.

Saliel's hand still holds a white blade brilliant cross spear. He still has the strength and the will to fight.

"Come on, let's start the second round, Saliel"

I take a heavy step by grasping the "Absolute Grievance" "Neck Break" left in my hand.

"Extremely Bad Food" left it there as it was when I left Saliel. Probably rolling around it, but won't be able to afford to collect it.

"K, Chrono..."

"Don't push it, Lily stay back. I'll take care of the rest."

"Jesus, My Lord"

The voice that returns in response to the words, I leave it to you, belonged to an inorganic man.

I already know that Lily's Living Corpse (Living Dead) is behind this.

After the release of 'Fairy Consolidation (Excellion)', it has been assumed that Lily will wear out so much that she can't fight anymore. They exist to safely leave this battlefield.

For the sake of this safety measure alone, we did not put it into battle until now so that it would not be lost as a whole.

Thanks to Saliel's struggle, or some of the Crusaders around him, he had begun to respond resolutely as a palace troop. I also feel signs of a high density of magic that is still intense around here, more obviously being fought by more powerful men than soldiers in line. Whatever it was, it made sense to leave behind an escort called 'Living Corpse (Living Dead)' in a battlefield that still looks like a riot.

"Ugh... Chrono, be careful... if you're impotent, no, no..."

I only looked back once and dropped off Lily as I (Simobe), the formidable smile iron mask, took me down.

There were no words to give back.

I'm sorry, Lily. I've cornered that Sariel so far. And a little impotent. But I'll do it.

If I looked forward again, Sariel, like me, was starting to walk, with a slightly heavy foothold.

"... let's go"

Run off in the second step. Ignoring the screams of both legs seeking rest, he draws his leg strength forcefully, forcefully.

The opposing Sariel was also starting to run with a blast of white aura. Rather than be surprised if it can still move, it would be natural to do so.

"Red."

Preemptive attack, before the mistake overlaps. The Galahad War alone is a shame for the scattered slaughter of enemy soldiers, and the materials that form the blade of blood are stored in luxury.

Hard, sharp, crystallized blood bursts into Saliel with momentum like a blood splash.

But a boulder should be called an apostle, or a fatigued body, yet gorgeous enough to send an attack to Hilary - just that, I'm sorry.

"... Assault (Charge)"

For a moment, you lose sight of yourself.

I noticed when the glitchy tip was literally poked in front of me.

"Thunder Demon King (Overaccelerator) Huh!

The blade of the cross keeps moving forward with clarity in a world that should stop and see. Without a third blessing, I would have had my face pierced.

Amazingly enough, I still showed so much stepping in as well as just running. Dots of snow scatter from the footprints she put on the ground after Saliel ran away.

"Assault (Charge)" is a spear martial arts technique that is a single move, including the first move, of running straight and poking enemies. They say it's often used as the first blow when dueling...... how many guys can invade the time so quickly with just 'assault (charge)'. It's like a world of early gunman shooting battles.

While cooling my liver that way, I sidestep my head with the momentum that my neck might lift.

Successful dodging where in inches. My left ear has been zackled, but still, if it's not fatal, let's call it evasive success.

"Whoa, whoa!

Strike back, targeting Sariel in the outfit who jumped back into his nostrils with all his might to return the already vanished blade of blood.

The two sworn machetes are still to be said or improbably bounced by the spear pattern Sariel pulled back early on. It captures the blade at an exquisite angle and is derailed to slip.

There's a void ahead. Correct, condition that you cut the sky.

In a hurry, three machetes - oh, my God, she's not such a sweet opponent as to forgive me.

"Stinger"

Sariel chose to pierce the hand. It's almost a tight zero distance, so I guess it was faster to reach out than poke it with a spear.

Soon his left hand, which let go of the pattern, is rolled out with a clean alignment of fingertips like white fish. whilst, a swing of white blade. There's just one thing ahead, heart.

"The Demon King of Steel (Overgear) - but ahhhhhhh!!

The ultimate defensive means, second protection. Activated. But that was the limit.

Drifting on the chest is an aura of steel so thin that it is likely to blow away in a breeze. Still, the Guard of the Demon King prevented the hands of the appalling Apostle.

The blade of the product is as good as it is. The fingertip stops at the tip of the chest. If I ate just one centimeter more, my nail tip would have hit me so hard that I might have pierced this' Devil's Embrace (Diabolos Embrace) '.

It's not torn. Not pierced. But the sudden shock shook a steep spot carving a heartbeat deep inside my chest. For a moment, so much so that I thought my heart would stop.

The piercing martial arts called 'Stinger', which Saliel thus uttered, were in an unprotected stage, and 'The Demon King of Steel (Overgear)' completely obliterated its effects. The magic that made the blessing manifest has already struck the bottom.

There was no way to stop the Apostolic Hand that had already been hit on me for losing my absolute defense.

"Whoa!?

Saliel shook down the hand he put on his chest, not sticking it straight up. My hand is really on the sword, no, just like I said this is a real knife.

Such a ridiculous attack can break my 'Devil's Embrace (Diabolos Embrace)'.

Straight down from your chest, past your hips. The demon's leather, which is physically and magically tough to resist, was torn apart.

"Ko, no!

Allow the gear to be destroyed that far, then finally my three machetes arrive. Shake Saliel's gray head, dressed as if it were small at her feet, down like a crack.

Now I can't even afford enough space to guard it with a spear. But Sariel dived through the blade just because he didn't need to take it. A blade of bamboo passes right beside Saliel, who bounced up his body to stand up thoughtfully, as if slipping through the surface.

I'm sure that's no special martial arts or magic. My attack was completely cut off, that's all I'm talking about.

Totally, this is it as soon as I get back to life. It really makes me feel the difference in power from the Apostle.

Even though she is constantly breathing and dressed in an unusual outfit called underwear, Saliel does so to show even more strength. Her movements were not just evasion, but connected to the next attack.

What Sariel's left hand, stretched out again, grabbed was the chest barn of his coat.

What, in the next moment I thought, flurries and bodies danced through the universe.

It is being thrown - so understanding caught up in the middle of passing over Saliel's head.

While it is a luxurious motion to grab the chest barn and throw it away forcefully as it is, there is also the lack of precipitation like a single bearer that the master of Judo only puts on his irresistible opponent. Powerful, beautiful throwing move.

The moment I get slammed to the ground with the momentum I have, that's where I'll be exposed to deadly gaps. Impossible to evade or move to defense immediately, under the shock of a head into the ground. Sariel is now a spear that holds his favorite steeple still firmly in his right hand, whether it's my heart or my head.

That's why I ran away. I'm in the middle of being thrown, right now, at this moment, before I can still be tapped.

I took off the 'Devil's Embrace (Diabolos Embrace)' as if I were going to skin it. I was also fortunate that the previous one had already been torn. Let go of the tweezers and pull your arms out of your sleeves and you can take them off.

Having done so, I got out of it so gorgeous that I seemed a little strange about how I did it myself. It's as vivid as the art of ninja transformation. Or maybe you could think of 'Devil's Embrace (Diabolos Embrace)' as letting me go.

That's how I succeeded in escaping Saliel's throwing moves so I could roll forward.

But I just outdid this, and it won't last. I lost one of my most reliable protective gear. If you cut Sariel and I head-on any more, it's visible that we'll be cornered again in the next round.

If you want to use it, it's the only time.

Interrupted, I extend my left hand to my waist as I make another spin on the ground at the same time as I land. Pass a medicine bag with 'Fairy Spirit Medicine' hanging beside your belt and 'Pale Flame Guardian (Nanablast Amulet)', just behind your hips there is a sole.

It's a dual eagle with a double gun.

It is not a grenade nor is it usually a warhead that holds within it. A dedicated bullet to kill Sariel.

……

The gun you pulled out is pointed at Saliel's head.

By contrast, her spear is sticking down my throat.

We poked each other's special weapons at the same time. As if we had shown each other, me and Sariel had stopped moving perfectly. Creepy silence.

"... you won't stab me? The battle isn't over yet."

"No, it's over"

I feel like I've already won. But so is that. If it's him, it's not strange to see through and avoid the bullets he fired even at this super close range.

Or do you mean piercing your throat with the tip of your ear before I pull the trigger?

"After all, your power is too dangerous. I will kill you and all your people."

"Psst, you idiot... it's too late to notice"

And I pulled the trigger. I won't miss Sariel's red eyes moving.

His crimson gaze came off of me at this moment.

"Grr!"

The spear of the protruding cross chooses my left shoulder deeply. But it deviates from the steep throat, which was more prescribed than the original.

By contrast, the bullet I unleashed... came off. I don't even scratch. With a slight tilt in her body, Sariel was escaping the rays without difficulty by bending her neck wide.

Two bullets running from "Dual Eagle" vanish into the winter sky in vain.

"-!?

But the bullet hit Sariel.

Hit. Side head.

"Boulder, good arm"

At the best possible time, Simon's sniper burst.
