The moment the flame wrapped around my sword hit the Demon Man, the Demon Man was caught in a blast.

Intermediate magic of fire attribute, "entanglement flame (brave heat)".

This magic can attack an object with flames.

And the moment that flame hits, it creates an explosion that involves the target.

This is intermediate magic, but one that is particularly difficult to handle.

If you mismanipulate the magic at all, it's a dangerous thing to eat an explosion.

But when I can manipulate it well, it exerts a power commensurate with its difficulty.

An earlier explosion, no matter how strong that man is, shouldn't be unharmed.

I still can't get the smoke out of my sight, and I observe with care not to miss the man.

And - a sway runs into the smoke, and a man comes out of the smoke.

I look at it and try to move and slash it from me again - but my legs don't move.

"Ku......!

My legs didn't move well due to my current magic, which cut my strength a lot, and my previous wounds.

He's not the enemy who misses that gap, he puts a kick in my belly.

For the first time in this fight I eat a decent attack from the front and blow it in the direction of the wall.

A shock ran on my back and my body fell to the ground with so much pain that my head shook.

This sucks... some of my guts got fucked by the shock right now.

I have tasted this feeling many times in my previous life......

"Damn it! You did it, you......!

The man sees his clothes burning and pays for burning and so on with his hands.

Exactly when I saw blood flowing from my face and body, it looked like the wound was injured but not that deep.

"How dare you...!

That's where I get angry for attacking like that...

There's more to it...

I tried to get up thinking about it, but I couldn't get up because I couldn't help myself.

"I like these clothes the most, so I thought it would be good for me to go see a woman... because I didn't think it would be such a fight. That sucks..."

Has the man disturbed his all-back hair as well, with both hands up and in order?

Oh, I don't know about your woman...

Get up, I... get up or this guy will kill you...

"Well, you just have to destroy this village and then go home and get dressed... there's no better clothes than this. I don't want to buy it."

It's the only time this guy's slapping me in the mouth for nothing, he won't be attacked...

They attack me right away......

I try to stand with all my strength...

"Tell him - we have to get home early to meet Irene."

- Huh?

I should have listened to this guy and put up with the pain and put my whole body into it, but with that one word I can put my strength into it, and I forget the pain.

"You... what did you just say?

"Ah? What?

The man still sits down, looking down at me, thinking with his hand on his chin and looking up, trying to remember what he just said.

"We have to go home soon, huh?

"Before that..."

"... to see a woman?

"Yes... what was the woman's name?

I thought my body was too worn out and maybe I heard the phantom...

- Irene, it's called.

That's not true, and this guy spoke the name of my lover in my previous life - the woman I love.

What do you mean...?

You mean the same name?

"What's his full name...?

"What, you care about my woman like that?

Don't be ridiculous... I don't care if that woman isn't what I think she is.

But if I were the woman I think...

"It's Irene Halzion."

The name of the woman the man said - was the same name as the woman I dream of.

How many times have you lived in this world and thought of Irene?

How many times have I called that name?

How many times would you have liked to see that smile?

"Why did you... with that woman..."

"Why would I have to teach you that...... but okay. The truth is, this is something we need to keep secret, but you're gonna die anyway. I wanted to brag about it. Let's talk about it."

With that said, the man talks about his relationship with Irene as he nibbles.

"That woman, Irene, is the only daughter of the current king of my country."

- I know.

"When I become king, it's decided to marry Irene. This is still a matter of silence to the people, so you wouldn't have a problem saying it if you weren't really supposed to, but you were going to die for sure."

The man's already going to win me, and he's going to be the next king, and he keeps talking.

"A woman named Irene. That's a good woman."

- I know.

"I'm still a little young at sixteen, but if I think I'm going to be a better woman, I have no problem at all"

- I know. Irene is my age.

"Even though I'm a princess, I can cook, and the battle is strong. Exactly the perfect woman."

- I know. Irene's hamburger is the best in the world.

"And that body..."

- Shut up.

I couldn't hear you anymore.

The man was happy to speak, but he stopped speaking to me.

I don't care that he tells me about Irene from this guy's mouth.

"... Speaking of which, you didn't hear. Your name..."

"Ah? Is it now?

"And tell me the name of your country."

"... you want that much souvenir from the underworld? Well, I'll give you the name of the man who's gonna kill you."

The man says as he looks down at me still sitting.

"I am Felix Glazio, the next king of the kingdom of Harzion. Don't forget this name when you die... Eric, was it? That's what the old man said your name was."

My dad used to call me by my name, so even if I didn't, this guy knew my name.

But... well, of the Kingdom of Radio, Felix...

The Demons also change the name of their country when kings change.

When he becomes king, he makes his name his country's name.

Yeah, I know.

Because - this guy killed my beloved, Irene.

I remember asking Irene back in my previous life.

Irene said she ran away from the country because she was about to be forced to marry her.

And he said he was still being chased by an angry man for running away.

When I heard that, I swore I would protect Irene.

Me and Irene loved each other, and we hadn't married yet, but we were going to get married if there was a country where we could live in peace.

But - in the gap I took my eyes off, Irene was taken away.

And the day I killed myself in my previous life.

Irene tried to escape the man again, but the man moved his army and followed Irene, and killed Irene in that wilderness.

I... couldn't make it.

Irene died, and I killed myself in despair, too.

The culprit of all of that is the man in front of me now - Felix.

I feel like a killer like never before.

This is the guy. This is the guy!

You killed my beloved woman, Irene!

I stand up with my back on the wall, using my body badly, forgetting the pain with anger and willingness to kill.

Wall...? Speaking of which, I was kicked in the ass by this guy, and you crashed into the wall.

When my father blew up, the wall was so powerful that it was smashed, but when I did, the wall wasn't broken.

Well... you're still taking the damage, too.

It's such a magical blow that I can't move.

On the contrary, you'll be doing so well often.

I realize that and think calmly with a lid on my intent to kill and my anger.

This guy is not the one who can win by being swept up by such emotions.

I stand up and stare at a man a little surprised in front of me.

"Can you still stand... you're still a waste of time to kill here. Why don't you reconsider? You should be stronger."

"Ugh... enough shouting from you is enough"

"Well... that's enough, I'll kill you"

Me and Felix stare at each other for a moment - and run out at the same time, crossing blades.
