You You know who that person was and youre trying to make Yuu her opponent!?
Ah?
Kouma looked at me like hes looking at an unbelievable person.
You idiot! Miss Luna is a leader of the human army you know!? Fighting such a person, Yuuhi-san cant possibly win can she!?
Humm
Is that so. So the black robes were entrusted with their leadership huh.
Of course they would. No matter how strong one is, they wont be trusted if the others dont know their identity.
But the fact Elka and the others didnt tell me anything means that the state has done something I guess.
Get out of my way Suzaki! If we dont stop Yuu now shell end up dying!
Nah, it should be fine. If its the current her then she can win even against that girl.
What are you saying?
More importantly, youre going to worry a little more about yourself wont you?
If they dont become more serious, then instant killing would be too bland.
Well, I am in a hurry though.
Should be the same for Kouma and the others.
Lets start right away, youre in a hurry right?
Why you Despite being a Gloomy Yuki, youre being conceited!
While a vein popped up, Endou leaped out and shot a large clump of lava.
Was that the completed form of the magic that was used before? Its a technique close to a unique magic that uses Endous distinctive magic power.
But its slow.
Slow enough for me to have enough time to go around the classmates back.
Did it work!?
No it didnt!
Together with an explosion near the ground, the puddle of water vaporized.
Endou saw that vapor and said something stupid so I told him where I was.
Wh-! Behind us!?
What!?
Mitsuki realized it first and showed a response, but that too was slow.
If their opponent was someone who had the intent to kill, then half of them would have died this instant.
Ranged group get back! The close quarter group are the vanguards!
Jirous instructions scattered around.
Doesnt seem like theyre conceited enough to challenge me one by one.
Come at me
Uooooooh!
A male student whose name I dont particularly remember came leaping at me with a sword.
Continuing that, the bunch who went towards left and right started their attack from both sides.
Your coordination is fine and all, but what do you think youre doing by leaping all at once, you guys.
Take this here!
I swing once with Kuromaru.
The lightly swung Kuromaru mowed down the leaping guys in one fell swoop.
Dont go all at once! Remember the things you acquired in the dungeon exploration!
Shouted Kouma after seeing the guys groaning on the ground after being mowed down.
Hearing that, the vanguards immediately stopped their movement and each of them started moving separately.
No, he saw it was falling apart and took proper command.
In proof of that, they perfectly shifted their timing and started their attack.
Take this!

Woah there
Sei!
Here here
Yaah!
Try and hit me~
I dodge, warp and repel the pushed out fist, swung sword and thrown knife.
Although I was surrounded by ten people, nobody could touch me.
If its like this then I rather prefer monsters.
Why cant I hit him!?
Who knows? Arent you guys just slow?
Why you!
Even if you get worked up, things that cant hit just cant hit.
Oops, now that we separated, the rearguards are chanting magic.
Shall I make them sleep before Im attacked?
Here,
Gah
The electricity that was released from the soles of my feet burned the classmates.
It was fortunate that a pool of water was made thanks to the heavy rain.
Thanks to that the electricity flowed well even with a small amount of magic power.
Magic! Go!
Together with Jirous voice, magic was fired at the same time.
Quite a lot of them, I should go around again and
Gh!
Think Ill let you run?
The nameless classmate who shouldnt be able to move by the electricity grabbed my foot.
What looks is he giving me persistence and fighting spirit and what else? Something mysterious was inside this guy.
No, its not just him, its everyone.
What in the world did they do to them?
Wait, its not the time for that I guess
I forcibly swing away the hand that caught my foot and clear away the magic that approached right before me with Kuromaru.
I intended to dodge that but I wasnt on time for that I guess
Speaking of which.
Why do these guys go this far for Yuuhis sake?
The fact that Yuuhi clearly has her awareness shouldve been obvious to whoever was looking at her.
And yet theyre fighting with the reason that shes manipulated by me, but isnt it strange that not even one person was suspicious of Yuuhi?
That and theyre trusting Endou too much.
(No thats not it. Everyone is placing too much trust in Yuuhi.)
Shes certainly loved by many of them.
Ive always been near Yuuhi after I reincarnated, but Ive never seen anyone who hated her.
I heard people who weve never met at all were friendly to her.
It was abnormal to be frank, to be loved even by unknown people.
Is there somethingabout her?
Well, whatever. Putting it off for later.
Its a topic where theres no point in thinking about it.
Id like to check that after we finish this up, but right now lets play with the guys in front of me.
Outta the way! Ill do it!
You got no technique do you.
I brush away Endous Magma Ball he unleashed the second time.
Seeing his own magic burst and scatter in mid-air and then falling on the ground to create water vapor, Endou stiffened.
Its a lie right?
Everyone, take refuge
Having seen that, Kouma gave instructions while he came out.
The others who valiantly came out were two: Jirou and Mitsuki.
And incidentally Endou who was at the front and didnt move.
If it were the other people, then they probably wont be able to perform an attack as good as the Magma Ball back then.
If so, then I agree with Kouma who judged that theyll be useless in this fight.
The classmates who looked like they want to say something were reluctant, but maybe they understood their own strength since they stepped back.
Ah, if youre going back then take these guys with you.
I grab several of my classmates who are collapsed behind me and throw them.
From a sideglance, Jirou caught all of surprised people, killed their momentum and let then on the ground.
All with one hand, huh. Not bad eh.
Hold it you, even if it was a joke, theyre still classmates you know. Couldnt you treat them a little more careful?
In that case, then dont gang up on me and torment me with all of you please. Im just one person you know?
My bad, I dont have any sympathy for the guy who put his hand on Yuu.
Really, well I dont need any of it though.
While we were talking about those things, the people escaped in the direction opposite of me.
They seem to be on guard against me, but Im not going to chase them really.
Bye bye, peeps whose names I dont know.
Nevertheless Kouma, letting all of them escape was a good decision. If Endous Magma Ball doesnt get through, then they cant cant become opponents if theyre not us.
I wonder if Ive done something unforgivable to everyone.
Theres no helping it! Its easier to move this way, you know!
Whats remaining are three of the four life-havers and one dunce, huh That works.
Its pitiful for the guys who were declared as useless isnt it-
I think its better than dying.
Thats true though.
Me killing anyones not gonna happen No, theres a once in a thousand chance; if theres that many, then they may get engulfed and at least one may get into an accidental death.
The amount of people dropped now, so I wont have to get troubled with that part.
Here we come, Suzaki
Sure
Kouma and Mitsukis figure disappeared.
Theyre quick I can see Glains style.
I stopped the Excalibur of Kouma who appeared beside me with Kuromaru and then I stop the attack from Mitsukis dagger from the other side by grabbing her arm.
Theyre fast was what I said, but thats in a within bounds of common sense kind of meaning.
Theyre still sluggish from my perspective.
These two looks surprised, but it appears these werent their winning bet.
With the perfect chance where both my hands are occupied, Jirou appeared in front of me.
Eat this!
The magic power filled fist hits my stomach.
The foot he stepped with rocked the ground, creating a small crater.
The attack with high firepower from good coordination was pretty good but.
You should have gotten Glain to give you a bit more proper training.
Wha- are you kidding me
I didnt even twitch.
As I expected he didnt seem to think it did no damage, so Jirou reflexively pulled back his fist.
Before they separate, first I fling away Mitsuki I caught and then hit Jirou hard with my free hand.
Mitsuki who I flung away from me scowled at me while she got up and Jirou was lying down on the pool of water, groaning unmoving.
Ji- Jirou! Suzaki !
Where did you get such strength is it?
!?
Its because you look like you want to ask that.
Even I would be curious about it if our positions are reversed.
Weell, not gonna tell ya though!
Damn!
I forced back Kouma with Kuromaru.
Originally, Kuromaru is at a level where it would be instantly cut into pieces by a sacred sword, let alone holding down the sacred sword. But Koumas sacred sword is still hardly awakened.
Its just a stick that discharges power.
Excalibur, which would continue to shed light, will for the first time acquire its sharpness by condensing the light in its blade.
And thus us Heroes would arrive at a higher place.
If I were to say what I want to say thenit means its not worth talking about it to the inexperienced Kouma.
Why are you supporting the demon army?
Ah?
Kouma asked me as he took distance and readied himself.
We were supposed to be requested to help the humans and take up arms.. And yet, why are you on that side? Why are you trying to take Yuu along with you?
Hmm, thats right.
The reason is that the human me got along well with those guys, but I dont think thats all.
Simply said, letting Touma do whatever he likes pisses me off and I have to kill him once more.
And above all I hate the human country.
And if I were to add another one, one reason thats limited to this place
The big reason is that I have people important to me among both the demons and the beastmen. If the humans are going to try hurting them, then supporting them is natural right?
Also personally, I cant stomach the fact you asked Yuuhi out on a date.
You mean thats the reason for taking her along with you?
Yeah
Think Im going to leave Yuuhi alone in a place with a guy who would try to put his hands on her? Is what Im saying.
Well I do know Yuuhi refused the invitation from a guy with ulterior motives.
Also that shes not as weak as she looks.
Thats why I also know that there was never a time when she went out together with a man except with me, just because she was asked out.
Even so I doubt this guy will stop asking her out, because he loves her.
Even I you know, have that healthy desire to monopolize.
I like Hanabashira Yuuhi. I love her very, very much. I wont hand her over to you, Ill defeat you here. Thats all.
Thank you for the easiest to understand reason. In that case I cannot lose either.
Theres no compromise in this.
That being the case, we can only fight.
I set up my Kuromaru and Kouma readied his incomplete Excalibur.
Theres no signal.
Even so we kicked the ground at the same time.
Our swords then clashed and sparks fell
