Sword of the Philosopher
The Power of Weapons
There seems to be no doubt that our ambush struck the enemy's void, and this appearance shook up the demons in the castle.
"And, enemy attack -!!"
Someone screams...... I guess it doesn't just mean you can fight though the Demons. And since Bizel is out of the castle and is still negotiating, the response in the event of an ambush in the castle will be delayed by a step?
Then the operation can be carried out at once... me and Sophia will kick the demon clan near the weapon first. Look with your eyes. Grasp the power. It's enough to blow it away if you put some effort into it - probably not a combatant, but a presence that operates weapons.
So deal with it without any problems. Now nothing is an obstacle.
"So, protect someone!
The Demons scream - but with no one to intervene, I set my sword on the shell. And jump and slap that shell out of its roots!
In the blink of an eye, my slaughter made the shell less stunning... then unleashed 'Lightning' where Sophia manipulates the weapon. I got a little worried about going wild for a moment, but when the magic hits me straight, the weapon bounces and flies, and the fragments scatter around.
With Todome, I also feed the weapon body with a sword trident. As a result of considerable force, or not even an amputation, the weapon itself could be destroyed as irreparably as possible at the earliest.
Sophia, we're leaving.
"Yes!"
We're leaving with a reply. So the fighters in the castle rush, but it's all slow.
Using flying magic, we left the castle. Without being attacked, we just looked at the sight of the opponent going right and left... and we stepped outside the castle.
"... I see you let humans destroy weapons"
So he raised his voice as if Bizel, confronting Croix, was convinced.
"Hmm, you just won't be able to use it anymore. If you operate poorly, you'll erupt and my castle will be gone."
"So the negotiations are broken?
Croix asks. It was that arrow tip, Bizel suddenly put his hand on his ear.
- Get ready.
Shortly after that word came a report from a user demon who observed a different place from Bizel's castle. The point I was trying to tell Croix earlier...... from that base where the distance is, the weapon of war that I just destroyed is showing up, and the preparations for it will proceed. Have you contacted him there apparently?
"A brilliant operation, but there was one fall...... weapon...... I call it a demon cannon, but that's what I assumed there was only one"
"How many, you say, created a ridiculous weapon?
"Ridiculous, that's rude. The Demon Cannon is undoubtedly the best weapon to unite this demonic world. This weapon will end the battle for the Demon King and open a new world."
While Bizell talks, weapons are getting ready... there's no change in other bases. But perhaps there must still be two weapons.
"... Though humans can be here and destroy weapons, this time the place we are preparing is a long way from here. Exactly. You wouldn't be able to use metamagic, would you? Then we can't overturn this situation."
With words, Bizel laughs. A laugh convinced of victory.
"Then I just wanted to say that the earlier negotiations continued... but I kicked it once. I need you to look me in the eye for a little bit."
- You.
Amel speaks out. At the same time, Bizel shouted out loud.
"Think - the power of those who control the demon kingdom!
From a demon cannon that was ready at the same time as screaming, magic overflowed. And the light emitted with the roar...... magic, not live ammunition. The aim was the army of Croix and the others present on the plains.
The demon who observes you clearly captured the sight. Huge light bullets flying in at terrible speeds. The color is light purple, leaving the demons unable to take any action... and landed a bullet in the ground.
In a moment, the light looked around and exploded. And swallow all the troops of the croissants on the plains.
That's not all. Even the mountains that sandwich the plains are involved and even the terrain is changed...... I heard a roar by shells not only from the demon of use, but also in my ears. More light stretched over the sky, which could also be captured in sight.
"Master Luon, the plains..."
"Destroyed."
The light begins to disappear with that word. That's how miserable it seemed. Demons and demons that were supposed to have been on the plains were nowhere present.
"Terrible power... well if it's me or Sophia's fusion magic, it doesn't seem like it's an output I can't get out"
"But if you have a number of these weapons..."
"Oh, it means we can have a series. And finally, it's not like this attack was fully powered up."
To make Croix and the others understand this time... there must have been some demonstrative implications.
"I don't know if you understand the situation, but all those who were in the plains have perished."
Bizel begins to speak to Croix and the others softly.
"We don't have any more wins... do we?
"Nothing. I don't mind, do I?
Amel responds. I put on a big sword and went into combat.
"Let me show you how excited the driven are."
- Wait, Amel.
That's where Croix calls it off.
"I can't forgive the way Bizel does it. But stop imitating me like I'm going to die here."
"On the other hand, negotiation is a breakdown, isn't it?
"I deny the way you do... I will always take you"
"Can you do that? It will be possible to escape this occasion. But there won't be any more power left, will there?
- Due to the operation on this, all the main demons who actually produce demons and demons are alive and well.
Sofia's operation… From the anticipation that the weapon would be ejected, Sofia made a proposal to "position a large amount of decoy so that the opponent can target it". This means that the plains targeted by Bizel's demon cannons were mostly just decoys that didn't make them a force for war.
Originally, this operation was not certain, even if it could guide Bizell's aim... but this time we found out where to aim in the situation, so the operation was a success.
Therefore, both Croix and Amel still have the power to relaunch… all they have to do after that is leave this place.
"Always... no matter how long it takes, I will definitely take you down"
"I see. Then let's wait. Yeah, you don't have to worry about the people. If I became the Demon King, I would treat everything equally. Because he is my faithful servant."
Bizel's eyes glow suspiciously. You don't consider one thing about the demonic tribe, starting with the inhabitants... do you even think of it as a tool to use for weapons?
"... Become the Demon King, what do we do?
Croix asks. In contrast, Bizel answered without stopping to grin.
"From there, dye and unify the world black… let me realize that the previous demon kings could not"
- This guy must never be a demon king.
I see. I get it.
Croix said, sending a gaze to Amel.
"Do you believe me?
"Oh, right. I mean, that doesn't seem like the only option."
"Then - we're leaving."
"Well, let's get started!
Bizel reacts. At the same time, there was a variation in the surroundings.
Apparently, like the plains, they were turning demons into dirt, and demons appear to surround us, generating servants... we can't fight this for long. Even if we win, now comes the main force of our enemies.
"As far as I'm concerned, I don't think I'll ever see you again... well, I wish you luck"
Bizel begins to retreat. At the same time, the demons set the clois up - the battle began.
