16 Episode 16 "The Hegemony of The Odd Shape, Intimid... (1/2)

From Lisette's point of view...

”The third one!

Shuru.

Lysette's long sword drew an arc.

I'm not sure what to make of that.

”Ggaaaaaaaaaaah!

”Next, the fourth one!

A black soldier in armor appeared from behind the fallen demons.

I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it'll be fine.

It's a good idea to take a look at the website and see if you can find anything you like.

That's why the evil spirit is so dense and strong.

”You're a subhuman!　I'm sure you're not the only one.

The Kuro Soldier says, his armor creaking.

The land of the subhumans... is no more in this world!

It's not up to you to decide, is it?

I'm not sure what to make of that.

It's not a matter of you deciding. In return, she sliced off her opponent's wrist.

In the end, it was a matter of time before she was able to get her hands on the sword.

As if dancing, Lisette continued with a series of blows.

With the second blow, she cut the soldier's arm. When a soldier who had lost his weapon brought his shield forward, she struck him in the leg.

If the soldier loses his balance and falls, skewer him in the chest with the ”super hard long sword”.

What is ...... that? What is that sword ............?

The black soldier vanishes, spitting out a poisonous mist.

The Kuro Soldier vanishes, spitting out a poisonous mist. ”It's a great sword, given to me by Grandfather Lisette. It would be a shame to use it on you.

Lysette looks at the sword and nods.

She nods, looking at the sword.

Thanks to you, Shoma, our surprise attack was a great success.

Half of the 40 enemies have already fallen. The rest are fighting with the adults of the village.

We're already evenly matched in numbers. And with Lisette and Haruka on top of that, there's no way they can lose.

And yet, for some reason... Lysette had goosebumps on her back.

There's a ...... ruckus in my chest.

Strangely, she felt as if she had overlooked ...... something.

I'm not sure what you mean by that.

I'm not sure if it's a good idea or not. It is the home of the Kuro Goblins and Kuro Soldiers, and the boss of the demons, the Kuro Knight Mesetrat.

At this rate, we might be able to invade there.

”Liz!　I'm fine!

At the sound of Haruka's voice, a crumpled soldier flew underneath Lizette's feet.

Whenever Haruka swung her club, the black goblins and black soldiers flew through the air. The moment they fly, their bodies are somewhat crushed. The adults of the village put an end to their diminished fighting ability.

I'm not sure what to say.

You are the monster that the Kuro Flame Emperor summoned, aren't you?

I'm not sure what to make of this.

I'm not going to let those people kill me!

Haruka placed the tip of the cudgel against the chest of the Kuro Soldier.

I'm not going to let them kill me!

I'm not going to do it!

I'm not sure what to do.

It hits a large tree and stops moving.

”Zero-distance 'inexhaustible hammer'! This reinforced cudgel can withstand it. That's my brother.

The Mujin-tsuchi is one of the striking techniques used by Haruka.

You can use it to unleash explosive blows by consuming your body's magic power while holding the weapon against the target.

The power concentrated on a single point can shatter even steel. However, it also puts a strain on the weapon. A normal club would break after one hit with the inexhaustible hammer. This is Haruka's special move, which until now could only be used once per battle.

This could really bring down the castle. Liz.

...... Yeah.

......?　Lizzy ......, what's wrong?

I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea.

I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea.

Have you seen Haruka ......'s The Kuro Knight Methuselah?

No. I think he's in an abandoned castle.

Lysette thought so too. But that's weird. Why aren't the demons running away?

The demons are already outnumbered.

The weapons Shoma gave us are no match for them. If we don't do something, we'll be wiped out.

I'm sure the demons know that, but...

”...... but they won't run away. That means they think they can turn the tables. That means there's a reason you can't escape.

You're saying that the Kuro Knight Mesethrat is in command somewhere?　But he's not coming to us.

He's one of the cruelest of all demons. The people of the village were almost killed a while ago. ...... There's no way he wouldn't show up on such a battlefield. And they will attack you with the most disgusting attacks.

Lysette pressed her forehead and thought.

I don't like to think about it, but what would I do if I were the Kuro Knight?

When Lisette and the others rushed in, the villagers were almost surrounded.

The only route that was open was the one to the village. If Lysette and the others had rushed too late, they might have started running toward the village. How to defeat it efficiently?

They could flank the fleeing villagers...

Or surround them completely with black goblins and soldiers.

We'll break through the enemy lines! Haruka, follow me!

Sister Liz?

I hope I'm wrong...

Lysette took her sword and started running.

Just as Lysette and the others got behind the enemy, the Kuro Knight may have gotten behind the adults in the village. He wanted to attack from the direction of the village. If that's the case, then whoever is there now...

”The Kuro Knight Mesethrath is at your brother's place!

I'm not sure what to do, but I'm going to do it.

”...... brother, stay safe ...... brother, ...... brother Shoma!

Lysette's mind went blank.

”Please wait for me, Brother Shoma!

I can't let you die, I can't let you die.

He's the Dragon Emperor's Chosen One, and he's Lisette's family.

From Shoma's point of view...

”Tsk!

I can't believe it!

You'll be able to get a lot more than that.

The enemy is strong... I'm being pushed. This isn't good...

”Activate!　The Ogre Force!

I swung out my club with the strength of my 'Demon Awakening' state.

The guy who was slashing at me drew his blade and jumped back. With his horse.
