The battle was too one-sided.

Fifth place in the guild ranking, semi-machine Makina.

Its power must be considerable in nature.

The attacks are so horrific that every one of them can make you shudder, and they are enough to crush an ordinary human being with a single blow.

But that didn't work at all for the Dark King Azathoth.

All of his attacks were absorbed and nullified by the darkness that covered Azathoth.

Furthermore, that darkness was unleashing its absorbed attacks at Machina with the same power as it was.

''...... damage rate 70 percent. Killing mode, unsustainable.''

Makina's right side of her body was mostly covered by a machine.

That machine was half destroyed.

The non-machine part, the left half of her body, which was wrapped in a thin cloth, seemed to be relatively undamaged, but she was breathing on her shoulder as if her strength was being drained.

The mechanical part of the machine also lit up in sync with that, and there was a sound like air leaking out.

''Don't worry. It's not necessary to have the Four Divine Pillars, but Azathoth's dark clothing absorbs any attack. It's not possible for a human being to do any damage to Azathoth.

Miakis said as he finished the game and came back to the back seat.

I don't know, I feel like I've heard that line somewhere.

That's not a losing flag, is it?

'Impossible to damage? You mustn't lick the machina. She seems to have been hit one way, avoiding mortal wounds and analyzing the enemy. The battle is far from over.

Beside Miakis, in the seat Azathoth was sitting on, sat a first-generation man with a bandage around his neck.

It was Dagan, whose neck had nearly been torn off after a disastrous defeat by Miakis. Even though he was injured that badly, he was still recovering quite well with the help of the Four Divine Pillars, Genbu and Seiryuu.

''Why are you sitting so quietly next to me?''

I wanted to say goodbye before I left. Do you remember what I said? You can't let your prey get away with what you're after.

I don't remember. Besides, I've already got a commitment for revenge.

Miakis looks to the back of the auditorium.

Dagan and I looked there, followed by me and Dagan, and saw a huge man standing there with his entire body wrapped in bandages.

Even his face was covered with bandages, but I could easily identify him by his height of over two meters and the huge sword he carried on his back.

He was holding a large shield carefully.

It was the Magic Shield King Bomb.

It should have self-destructed, but for some reason I'm super curious about it.

"He's that guy. He hasn't given up yet?

'Unya. I hear you're not ready to get serious yet.

...... Do you believe that word?

Why should I be suspicious? You'll understand when you fight. That thing just hasn't used up all of its power yet.

So he saw through it.

Apparently, both Miakis and Dagan recognize Zach's power.

It will be my turn to go first.

Dagan looks somewhat happy as he gets up from his seat after saying that.

Hearing those words, Miakis also looks happy.

''Let's see each other again sometime.

Miakis didn't look back at Dagan as he walked away, his tail wagging.

'Ta-kun!

The voice of the demon sword Karuna sounded and she looked towards the arena again.

The mechanical part of Makina, which had been damaged one way or the other, had been transformed.

From the machine that was only the right half, something like a tube undulatingly protruded from the machine that was only the right half, and covered the left half of Machina's flesh and blood body as if the body was being eroded.

And on top of that, parts appeared one after another from the mechanical part on the right, and all of Machina's body became mechanized.

''Vuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut!

Makina let out a deafening yell that seemed to be mixed with mechanical sounds.

''Activate final battle mode. One minute left of activity limit Made-Made.''

You've taken your last bet.

I felt a power from Makina that was an order of magnitude different from what I had felt before.

Makina thrust her arms out in front of her and spread her palms.

There was a small hole in the palm of her hand, and particles of light accumulated there.

''Machine Flash Light, Longinus.''

The moment Makina muttered that, the particles of light turned into a single line and flew in a straight line towards Azathoth like a beam.

''To no avail. Even if any kind of attack can't get through to Azathoth...... nyah! There!

Miakis, who hadn't moved as if he hadn't been moved before, started and let out a cry of surprise.

That thin beam of light struck Azathoth's darkened face.

Until now, Azathoth's darkness, which had been absorbing all attacks, was played by a beam of light for the first time.

''Vooroooooooooo!''

Machina increases her output even more as she wields the last of her power.

The light peels away the darkness that covered Azathoth's face.

As light and darkness intersect, the darkness rips apart, and the area around Azathoth's left eye, with a blue bruise on it, comes out completely.

'Massacre (genocide), all bombs.

Makina didn't miss that opening.

Holes opened up from all over the body covered by the machine. Jets. All of them were loaded with small missiles.

Dozens of missiles. All of them flying at once into Azathoth's face.

''Azathoth!''

With a cry from Miakis, a huge explosion occurs.

All the missiles hit Azathoth in the face.

The darkness that had covered Azathoth splashed into the arena and dissipated.

Azathoth's figure could not be seen due to the residue of nitrous smoke and darkness.

And Makina, who seemed to have used up all her strength, crouched down to collapse in place as the machine that had covered her entire body was once again only half-empty.

'It was a brilliant attack,'

The human part of Makina, the thin left eye, opened wide for the first time at Azathoth's voice.

Azathoth was standing behind Makina, who should have been blown up by the explosion.

Makina did not look back.

'...... sonodarkness ha-dokomade deep?'

'The light of day does not know the depth of the darkness of night. ...... do you still want to continue?

No, it's all over.

Master Machina abstains, so Master Azathoth wins!

Just like the Miakis game, the crowd was silent.

They must be feeling the overwhelming threat of the demon race, as the two top-ranked players were defeated without an arm and a leg.

The first thing to say is, "Ya, I knew I had it in me. It was a bit of a surprise, though, because it attacked where Alice had beaten me before.

So that's where Alice got you. Indeed, there was a bruise on Azathoth's left eye.

Just like Dagan had said, Makina seemed to have analyzed the part of Azathoth's darkness that was weak and concentrated on that part, but it still didn't work.

The difference in power between the human and demon race. The overwhelming strength of the Four Heavenly Kings is shown in succession (except for the Dogma).

''Then let's continue with the fifth match of the first round! Master Leia, Master Jor, please go up to the arena!

Makina and Azathoth, after their recovery by the Four Divine Pillars, had left the arena and the next match was about to begin.

'Watch me, Takumi,'

Leia stands up and bows to me.

Her expression was the most serious one ever.

After all, he must have an extraordinary karma with his opponent, Yol.

''Go for it. I'll be watching you here.''

Yes!

He replied cheerfully and saw Leia off to the arena.

But that promise was not kept.

I was feeling an uncomfortable feeling in my left hand at this point.

I wasn't supposed to be holding anything, but before I knew it, it was present in my hand.

'A letter?'

She would be the only one who could do this.

It was a blue colored envelope with no address or destination.

I gently opened the seal and looked inside so that Chiharu and Chloe wouldn't notice.

It was like a love letter and also like a threatening letter.

I haven't forgotten you. I'll be waiting for you under the big tree behind the arena.

The timing is right.

I guess everything went as planned.

The person who led Chairman Barbaroi to misidentify me as the Demon King.

I can't think of anyone else for that.

"Hey, I'm going to go to the bathroom.

With that, he also leaves Karuna on the seat.

'Takumi!'

Don't worry. I'll be right back.

Chiharu, who tried to follow me, also controlled and headed alone.

That's right. This is why I have to go alone.

The gong for the start of the fifth match rings, and she slowly makes her way to the spot amidst the loud cheers of the crowd.

In the shade of a large tree behind the arena, she was waiting for me with a slight smile.

'So you were the Demon King after all.

I don't deny it or affirm it.

She looks at me quietly and smiles at me.

It was a smile just like the one I used to see on the Nuru Bee.
