The Contractor of the New Sister Devil

"……………………"

Ren said nothing, just staring at him with calm eyes.

"...The eyes are good. Perseverance and fortitude, with an unyielding dedication—I will step on this dedication severely under my feet soon. Come—"

Zokir said with a cruel smile:

"Let me see how desperate your eyes look..."

As soon as the words were cut off, Zokir disappeared without a trace; but the Dongcheng Blade did not move.

"——————"

Just closed his eyes in silence and focused his mind to the highest limit.

I am afraid……

As far as his injuries are concerned, this may be the last time he swings his sword normally.

——Never miss it.In order to get a killer blow, Dongcheng Blade adjusted its posture.

Remove the excess strength of the whole body, relax the limbs, so that you can shoot the sword at a rapid speed.

Neither Zokir's figure nor his breath can feel the slightest.It may be the ability to use some kind of shuttle dimension to completely eliminate one's own existence; but despite this, there is still a momentary opportunity to catch Zokir, that is--

...When he attacked me...

The goal is that moment.Before, Blade could not avoid Zokir's attack, but he didn't consider dodge this time.Since the opponent can travel through the dimension, no matter how to run or hide, it's vain, so just don't hide, and send a fast counterattack after hitting that instant.

Soon-the air behind it swayed slightly.

"————!"

Dongcheng Blade immediately turned around at a speed that surpassed the reflex of the spinal cord, striking a sword that bet all power.

Blade Geng cut horizontally and accurately swept towards Zokir who was hiding in the void.

Brunhild hit the target steadily-Dongcheng Blade got such a real touch.

"what…………"

Immediately after—he was shocked even more intensely.

Brunhild did cut on his body.

But he did not hurt him, and was blocked by a barrier.

——Just a few millimeters away.

If this difference is replaced by zero, it may be able to lead the edge to victory.

However, there is a cruel distance between the millimetre difference and zero.

"By the way—I just want to see this look."

When he heard Zokier's sullen thief say this with a smile, Dongcheng Blade slammed into the wall behind him.

In front of Zokir's eyes, the blade that hit the wall slid down the wall and slumped on the ground.

——But he can't get up anymore.Zokir's sword blow bounced the blade back further, not his body, but to completely cut off his consciousness-as it should be.

"The blade is more...! The blade is more--!"

Mioichi, who was restrained by spirit and unable to move, yelled like this--

"…………Well……"

The blade made a groaning sound and moved slightly; his right hand, whose armor was broken, still held Brunhild firmly and did not let go.

"Unexpectedly... Even if the life force of the choppy is always amazing, I really didn't expect you to still have the power."

Zokir smiled happily, and slowly moved towards the blade.

at this time--

"--Stop, please."

A cold voice came from behind Zokir.

It's not Mio, it's not Yuuki, and—it's not Jeste.

——Who would it be?

Zokir, who knew the answer long ago, smiled happily.

Then asked behind:

"Sure enough, you are here... this kid is only here to consume me, and are you the main force, Maria?"

Even though Maria was restrained from behind, Zokir smiled calmly.

And Maria said calmly:

"...No. Brother Jianeng wants me not to come."

but--

"But how can I just watch other people fighting like this, and I'm the one who just sits on the sidelines - after all, it's not someone else who has enemies with you, it's me and Master Miao."

Hearing what Maria said, people were in Mio far away--

"Are you...Maria...?"

I asked in a daze, maybe it was the appearance of Maria turning into a body that made her too stunned.The sense of guilt that deceived the owner made Maria silently glance at Miao with apologetic eyes——

"—Oh? You look so much more beautiful."

And such a small gap gave Zokir a chance to turn around.

"!————"

Zokir's gaze also walked around Maria, who jumped back hastily, and said:

"Usually such a naive body makes people have no appetite at all, but now it is quite tempting. After starting to help me, I asked you to transform many times, and you resolutely said that it is impossible, you can only use it once... …Is it really a lie."

"...To be the object of your venting, I might as well die."

After hearing Maria say this in disgust--
