''Now that we have a party, let's take on the S-rank for the next quest.

At Nurhachi's words, the mood that had been buoyed by becoming a D-rank adventurer sank into the abyss.

''Well, that's a bit reckless, isn't it?''

I don't feel like I can take on a legendary S-ranked quest and survive after even the last AAA rank was a death sentence.

''Don't worry. These three are quite good, and even though they are S-ranked, they are unafraid of us.''

Nuruhachi convinces me to accept the S-rank quest.

[S Rank: Defeating the Emperor (Kaiser) Behemoth]

It was a quest to defeat the Ancient Dragon (Ancient Dragon) and other super-class demonic beasts, along with the Ancient Dragon (Ancient Dragon).

''Nuruhachi, why were you always taking on these reckless quests?''

I didn't understand at the time. But now I understand. Nuruhachi was storing up his magic power to open the door to the Demon King's Great Labyrinth (Labyrinth).

Back then, while answering Karuna's question, I only thought of Nuruhachi as a demon for taking on only reckless quests.

''Nuruhachi, Takumi is burnt!

"Sasha, sprinkle water on your recovery spell! Rick, not this one! Stick to Takumi's guard!

In a ravine surrounded by huge rocks, the battle with Emperor Behemoth began.

Called a perfect beast, it was bigger than any of the demonic beasts I had ever seen and was tens of times larger than the largest land creature, the Paone.

My first impression of it was that it was a huge beast covered in an iron-black outer shell and clad in armor.

''Goooooooo.''

Every time the Emperor Behemoth exhaled, a heat wave erupted from his mouth.

I, who have no resistance to heat protection, was the first to be burnt out.

''Oh no, Takkun! I'm on the wrong level, I'll turn to ashes just by being near you!''

Yeah, I know. I haven't cooked over the fire in a while after this.

I can't stop shaking as the memories of hell come back to me.

I'm scorched, blackened, and shrinking in the past, with Rick and Sasha's support, and I'm not even a shadow of the man who was on a roll during my second guild initiation exam.

The fierce battle between Nurhachi and Emperor Behemoth is fierce, and they are staring at each other, lacking in decisiveness.

That's when.

''Gogaaaaaaah!''

Suddenly, a huge rock fell from the top of the ravine, towards the Emperor Behemoth.

When I looked up overhead, I saw that Batts, who had been gone for some time, had dropped rock after rock with a simple trick using a log.

The extent of dropping rocks didn't seem to do much damage to the iron-like skin of the Emperor Behemoth.

However, his concentration is clearly distracted, creating an opening that hadn't been there before.

This was not a Nuruhachi that would miss it.

Nuruhachi sheds the cloak of control that covered him and releases an enormous amount of magical power.

A ridiculously huge magic circle emerged above Nuruhachi's head.

Nuruhachi raises his hands and swings them wide.

It was a movement like striking the keys of an invisible piano.

In conjunction with that movement, light erupts from the giant magic circle.

In a straight line, just a straight line, the light that turned into a beam of light fell towards the Emperor Behemoth.

The iron-like skin melts like a hot candy bar, and the emperor behemoth lets out a decisive scream.

It's settled.

That's what everyone in the room thought.

But ......

'Gaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!'

Something flew from the mouth of the Emperor Behemoth, who had gathered his strength at the last minute.

It was a small lump the size of a man's head covered in flames.

''Idiot!''

This is the first time I've seen Nuruhachi get this upset.

The body of the Emperor Behemoth was completely melted away by Nuruhachi's extreme beam of light.

But the last chunk of flame it spat out cut through the light, swirling and flying.

To the Null Bee, not to the Null Bee.

It flew towards the weakest and least powerful man in this place, namely me.

''Takkun! Oh, no! Run!

Karuna exclaims, forgetting that this is a past recollection.

'Li, Rick! Please, just take Takumi!

The cries of the Nuruhachi were filled with prayers and wishes.

So much so that this mass of flames foreshadowed a hopeless death.

By the way, in the past I couldn't bear this situation and fainted while standing.

''...... Rensoi no Shields (Shield Millefeuille),''

Rick piled up layers of shields and intercepted the mass of flames.

However, the shield cracks one after another with the palimpsest, as if such things were of no concern to him.

Saint Doping!

Sasha casts a spell to strengthen Rick's shield.

'Kyah!'

But it's no use at all, and Sasha is blown up with all the magic she cast.

It's not a good idea to have a good time. This is going to kill you, Tak-kun!

No, I don't remember, but he's alive now, so he should be, I think, right now.

It's as if I don't know how I could have saved myself.

...... unavoidable.

Just before the mass of flames hit me in the past, standing between them was Rick with all his shields shattered.

It's as if the momentum of the mass of flames never stopped, and I catch the mass of flames in its chest.

Rick's black armor bursts into flames and the impact hits like a vibrating wave.

''...... Takkun!

Yeah, I see it.

Rick's black armor, which had burned, crumbled into tatters.

But it's only the outer surface layer, and a new armor, shining gold, emerges from inside.

''That's the invincible armor, Aigis?

Nuruhachi shouted out.

Within the golden armor, the mass of fire had stopped its movement.

If you look closely, you can see that the cage hand has also been stripped of its black plating and replaced with a silver color with lightning bolts carved into it.

''The Basket Hand of the God of Thunder, Thor's Yarlgraple or...''

Is all this magic equipment?

It's not possible under normal circumstances. It's difficult to equip even one demon equipment. That man has more than three of them!

Three or more.

So the one that stood out the most was not an armor or a basket case, but a helmet.

The helmet, which had been pitch black, was now stained a blood red color.

Rick wasn't just wearing black armor.

His entire body was covered with magical equipment.

'Is that a Hades helmet that can erase your existence? I've heard of it in myths or something, but did it really exist?''

Batts came down from the top of the canyon and asked Rick a question.

However, Rick remained silent and didn't give any answer.

I don't care why you have that magical equipment," he said. It's just that you saved your friends, that's all that matters, hey, Nuruhachi.

Nuruhachi didn't answer right away, but after he saw me standing and passed out, he nodded quietly.

'Well, you did a great job protecting Takumi. Thank you, Rick.

Rick just nodded his head, but didn't speak.

He chanted some kind of spell-like phrase and all his equipment went black again.

'Itata, that, Rick, what happened?'

Sasha wakes up from being blown up and knocked unconscious by a failed enhancement spell.

The past me is still unconscious.

'What happened to that mass of fire? Huh? Rick caught it!

Sasha goes to take a peek at what's in Rick's hands.

The last thing the Emperor Behemoth spat out, it was ......

"Mokyu.

The cute little voice was a newborn baby emperor behemoth that had grown to the size of the palm of his hand.
