Chapter 210 - Venting Anger




While Kazane's leg armor was still inorganic, its appearance had changed to look like muscle . The dragon claws had grown and taken a more sinister form . They had transformed into a form with higher killing power in response to Kazane's will .


And Yuuko-nee wasn't the only one beside Kazane . There was another one: a huge Ogre covered with black muscles who had dragon-like claws growing from the back of his hands and his feet . That existence was the『Berserk Ogre』formerly defeated by Kazane, now reborn with the power of the Black Rock Dragon . That had become Kazane's equipment and grown until it could now finally personally appear on the battlefield as a summoned being .


Facing her, Yukito and Age's faces were not complacent .

They understood that Kazane's Skill was a natural enemy for them . Yukito was somewhat exhausted by the battle with Naga, but there was a risk that even one blow would be life-threatening for Age after being damaged by Jinrai . In that case, Yukito would have Age withdraw and fight alone .


『Skill・Legion』


Yukito activated his Skill and summoned black troops from the interior of his cloak .

「You're in the way! Come, Sieg!」

In response, Kazane held aloft her Heroic Spirit Summoning Ring . Then the strongest warrior manifested there .


『Zexia Ray!!』


Without any hesitation, the suddenly appearing Sieg fired his strongest technique . A huge amount of energy was emitted from the Greatwing Sword, evaporating the troops that jumped out . It wasn't a single attribute attack like Naga's Golden Dusk . There was no method other than complete magic defense that could block Zexia Ray, which contained all eight elements .


But Kazane wasn't the only one with a Heroic Spirit Summoning Ring .


「Counterattack, Snowdrop!!」


Yukito held aloft his ring . Kazane noticed it was a Heroic Spirit Summoning Ring and had Sieg stand in front .


「Guoooooooooo!」


Suddenly, an old, impressively bearded man clad in flames who was like a mass of muscle jumped out . And in his hands was a red hot hammer . Kazane recognized the appearance of the Heroic Spirit that was like the exact opposite of his name .

「Sieg, protect everyone!」

「Heaven Mirror Greatshield『Zegai』! Protect us!!」


『Bursting Flame Jail』


Tremendously hot flames spouted from where the ground was struck by the hammer .

But Sieg's shield transformed into a huge pattern and isolated all the flames .


「All forces, prepare bows!」

「「「Sir yes sir!」」」


「Tch」

Sieg clicked his tongue .

(It seems I've been taken for a ride)

Kazane didn't try to hide her irritated face . The opponent being a player was also surprising, but she never thought it would be a face she knew . She was wondering if she should rather crush them with her second character . But when Kazane thought of what would have happened to her, Naoki, and Jinrai if they weren't completely protected from Snowdrop's technique, she had a cold sweat .

However, while it was good that the attack from the Heroic Spirit called Snowdrop was prevented, the troops from Yukito's Legion Skill had fortified their positions surrounding them during that time . It seemed the troops that were watching over Naga were also getting in formation to surround Kazane and the others .


「Shall we settle this like back in Zexiahart? Sieg!!」

「That goes without saying, Berserker Snowdrop!」


It seemed that unlike the somewhere mentally strange Yukito, the Heroic Spirit Snowdrop could think normally . And Kazane recalled her memories of that Snowdrop character . They had never met in real life, but they had fought several times in Zexiahart's team battles and the like . The old muscular man specialized in flame attacks unsuited to his name was an existence called a top ranker .


Though if it was only him, Sieg could compete . However, Yukito's archer and ballista units behind him meant they were at a disadvantage . From what Kazane could see, they weren't only aiming at Kazane and Sieg . . . but Jinrai and Naoki as well .

Kazane understood they were aiming at the two of them knowing that she would choose to protect them . It seemed like she would go crazy with anger, but that's what made it effective . However, Sieg would eventually disappear if they stayed on the defensive . If Sieg disappeared, she could summon her second character, but it was specialized solely in annihilating enemies and didn't have overall defense like Sieg . Taking out the second character was difficult when there were many people to protect, and she wanted to settle things before it became a situation where she had no choice but to take it out .


For that reason, she pushed forward without hesitation .


Kazane had Yuuko-nee collect Naoki and Jinrai and briefly cancelled the『Berserk Ogre』summoning . Then she took a Mana Potion from her Item Box and swallowed it as she also took out the 3 meter magic sword, then activated Stone Minotaur with her staff『White Blaze』 . The marble floor made breaking sounds as a stone statue was made .


「Ah, like that Beared Dragon time . . . 」

Age said, but he had a composed expression . It's at most one monster . . . that was probably what he was thinking .


「Go, Mino-kun! Sieg, forward as well!」


Kazane shouted, and the Stone Minotaur started running . Sieg followed, then Yuuko-nee behind him .


「FIREEE!!」


A rain of arrows was fired by the archers and ballistas .

Kazane started running at the same time . She used her Skills『Invisible』and『Optical Camouflage』to hide her figure and used Material Shield to knock away any stray arrows as she advanced with『Dash』 .

(Sorry for using you as a shield, Mino-kun)

Kazane apologized to the Stone Minotaur that was in the unfortunate position of being used as a training partner or shield in her mind as she moved forward .

「Yukito Nii-chan, Kazane is heading that way!」

Age saw through Kazane's Skills, but while Yukito himself could have managed, his units weren't able to immediately react .

「Recon Corps . . . look . 」

A lightly equipped unit started running after Yukito's words and fired Detection and Disruption magic to catch Kazane .

「Too slow!」

Her Optical Camouflage had disappeared, but while it being for dragon usage meant the room was wide, it was still indoors, so Yukito's corps had difficulty demonstrating their full strength, and Kazane was already close and getting closer to an enemy corps . She was sufficiently close enough to reach them if she used the quick acceleration of her Fire Boost .

「Your turn,『Berserk Ogre』!」

Then Kazane summoned her『Berserk Ogre』in the center of the enemy group that was defending with greatshields . She also endowed his claws with『Soul Breaking Blade』through her Aim Bracelet . Then the Ogre's punches and kicks swept through and smashed up the surrounding troops like tofu . His entire body was a lethal weapon . The excessive destruction there was like they had been caught up in a tornado . Kazane jumped over them with Fire Boost and used one of her trump cards .


「Skill・Dragonization」


Then a huge 8 meter blue dragon covered with rainbow Dragon Spirit appeared right in front of the enemy unit, and Crystal Breath rained down on the center of the enemy group . Her aim was the archers . Kazane had drawn near to first of all stop the long-range attacks .

The enemy also particularly noticed she was a blue dragon, so the Fire group in the Magician Corps came to the front and fired, but the attacks were invalidated by the Rainbow Curtain surrounding Kazane . The archers were too close to Kazane and were Crystallized before they could aim . And the other units like the Spear Corps that tried to approach were obstructed by the Ogre .

Although that didn't mean the enemy would silently allow themselves to be destroyed .




「Giant Corps, forward!!」


Ten 5 meter armored giants came out of Yukito's cloak .

(Would my Crystal Breath be able to harden that size with those numbers?)

When Kazane was considering,


『Take it!』


Together with Naga's voice, a gold sword stabbed into the ground in front of Kazane .

『This is?』

Kazane looked at Naga, who was already at death's door and spoke while still in the pose from throwing the sword .

『It’s like a proof of marriage . My beloved sword . 』

『Roーger! I'll thankfully accept!』

When blue dragon Kazane clasped the golden sword, a golden pattern floated above her hand .

(Familiar!)

With one, two energetic swings, she tore the giant soldiers into pieces . That sword was probably a dragon exclusive weapon . Eating Kazane's Dragon Spirit, shining wind was created and mowed down the surroundings .

But they had steadily advanced .


「Ballista Corps, fireee!!」


『Ku』

Huge log-like arrows pierced the Dragonized Kazane one after the other .

(Annoying!)

Kazane sliced horizontally with the gold sword and released a blade of light to destroy a part of the ballista unit . But immediately after, her limbs were wrapped with restraining chains .

『Uaaa!』

She tried to forcibly tear them, but she couldn't . Naturally . Those chains were made to bind dragons . They couldn't be torn off with Kazane's strength . But then, Kazane had something even harder .


「The chains were bitten through!?」

「What sturdy teeth!!?」


The soldiers shouted, but Kazane had also forgotten she had another weapon . The Skill『Sturdier Teeth』was level 2, so her teeth had diamond-like hardness, and they were another powerful weapon Kazane could use alongside the prided golden sword . She had forgotten until just now, though . She had completely forgotten .

Then Kazane was dragon-like as she crawled on all fours and advanced while warding off the ballista attacks .

In addition, the Berserk Ogre chased after her . His body seemed to be considerably damaged, but his face was filled with joy from his first battle after a long time .

However, the Stone Minotaur had already collapsed, and Sieg was stuck in a one-on-one fight with Snowdrop and didn't have the leeway to help them .

(If I can defeat those guys here!)

Kazane rushed at Yukito and Age . She was just like a snow plow as she bit the surrounding soldiers while running at full power .


「Scary . . . that girl . 」



「Yeah, she isn't human . 」

If Kazane heard that, she might have lamented「That's enough with being told that by a devil!」but for the two of them those words were simple truth . The former little girl was crawling on all fours and biting soldiers as she headed for them . Being scared was normal .

「Even so, she's that strong . Killing her might be a little scary . 」

「Taken over . . . maybe . 」

Players were natural enemies for devils . Absolutely strong souls that could steal the domination power even when bound by contracts . Age and Yukito were both players, so they had taken over devils to arrive at the present, but the odds were fifty-fifty against a fellow player .

And the biggest problem was the『soul absorbing specification』called experience points . They would be forced to absorb her soul if they killed her .


「Age . . . purpose, achieved . 」

「Yeah . Escape time?」


Age nodded after Yukito's words . They had already obtained the item that was their goal . It seemed the devil army trial run was also generally favorable .   There was no point in immoderately fighting here anymore . But it was different for Kazane .

(I'll bring them down here)


Kazane undid her Dragonization when she was close to Yukito and Age . Then while being protected by the『Berserk Ogre』, she prepared herself and applied Fire Boost .


「Skill・Charge・Killing Leeeeg!」


And with a bellowing voice, she tried to hit Yukito and Age with Kazane Neo-bazooka,


「Sorry . . . escaping . 」


Together with those words, Yukito took a long sword covered with jewelry from his Item Box and cut in front of him .

「That's the Space-time Supremacy Sword!?」

Kazane knew about that . That sword was one of the eight Artifacts . A longsword favored by experts that could Transfer and Sever . Then the space Kazane was heading toward was cut open, and after it seemed like Kazane was swallowed up, she suddenly appeared behind Sieg and the others .

「Chiii」

Kazane used Fire Boost to slow her momentum as she loudly gouged out the marble floor until she stopped . She was surrounded by a cloud of dust from the shaved marbled .

「You guys!?」

Kazane roared, but the army disappeared, and Snowdrop also took a step back . Sieg also moved to restrain him, but he didn't chase too far . That was so he could protect Naoki and Jinrai riding Yuuko-nee's back behind him .

Then Yukito and Age stood in front of the God Dragon Emperor's throne room, and Age opened his mouth .

「Well then, we're going to withdraw here . Right, Yukito Nii-san . 」

「Yeah . . . already, enough . 」

Indignation welled up at the two's self-centered words, but she held her tongue . There was something she should give priority to over her own anger . Protecting Naoki and Jinrai was the number one priority, so she put up with it . Age laughed as he saw that .

「Ahーwell, seems like you get it . You look like you're the same age as me, but you're terribly calm . It's a great difference from your stupid younger brother . 」

「Don't insult Naoki!」

Naoki being stupid was true, but she was irritated at this complete stranger saying that . Or rather, she wanted to complain about the same age part, but she also put up with that .

「Anyway, we will withdraw here . Your brother and your companions will be saved . Your husband over there is different, though . 」

Naga's Heart had already been destroyed . Now he was only waiting for death . Naga moaned after those words, but it was a fact that couldn't be helped . When Kazane saw him, she ground her teeth, but stepping back here was correct .

The Berserk Ogre was closest to them and yelled as he looked at Yukito and Age, but Kazane dropped her hand and ordered the Berserk Ogre .

「Sorry, return,『Berserk Ogre』」

And when Age saw the demon disappear, he nodded and said

「Yeah . Thank you . And now, I hope you all will enjoy watching the world we'll depict after this . 」

「What do you mean?」

「You are certainly quite strong, but you're only a supporting role, after all . And we are this world's leading parts . 」

Kazane's face became steep at the meaning of those words . She had certainly never felt like she was something like a leading part, but that didn't mean she was pleased with being called a supporting role . But before Kazane was about to speak,


「Age, return . 」

「Well then, bye byeee . 」


The two figures immediately disappeared . It was the single attribute technique called Transfer . Devil's Unique Skill . It was something that couldn't be handled by humans who possessed multiple attributes from the start .


「Kuu」


The left behind Kazane groaned . She let her enemy get away . No, she should probably say they let her get away . It didn't seem like they had gotten serious . It didn't cure her anger, but she had no choice but to endure it .


Sieg and Snowdrop also disappeared .


However, even though the enemies were gone, it wasn't the time for either sulking or yelling . Kazane had to go the side of Naga in front of her . To her husband, whose life would soon come to an end .
