Another side

When evaluating Tanaka Jiro, the first thing that comes to mind is that he is extraordinary.

Although his age of 28 would be considered young in the eyes of the Demon King's Army, he joined the company at an age that is past his prime when converted into a human being.

At this stage, the people around him, with a few exceptions, judged that even though he was a high-ranking magic aptitude holder, in terms of future potential, he was not very promising.

The personnel had decided on a policy of raising him to be useful up to a certain point and then no more.

However, the presence of Suela Handelberg, the Immortal King No Life and Demon King Raido, who was in charge, changed that policy.

Who would have guessed that he would have achieved so many accomplishments despite his age, which is too late for him to play an active role due to his grueling training process.

He has defied initial expectations, lived up to them more than anyone else, and now.

Amazing.

Even if it's only a piece of work, he has grown to the point where he's able to compete with the Demon King, the best in the Demon King's army.

The first time you came in contact with him, Suela could not believe what she was seeing, but her heart was filled with joy as she responded to the feelings she had in the belief that she would accomplish the task.

"I never thought that his dull soul could shine so brightly.

No Life, who usually criticizes the other party in a ridiculous way, expresses this scene in the word admiration.

The sparkle of Jiro's soul reflected in the depths of his vacant eyes, a dazzling brilliance that makes you want to close your eyes.

I honestly admire its beauty.

.........

And then Raido grabbed his two arms tightly and said nothing, trying to contain the boiling blood he felt at this sight.

Sword fights overlapping sword fights .

You'll be able to see that you're not the only one who has been in a position to see that the speed of sound is long gone, and the speed of the sword is increasing as if to say that the speed of light is next.

You'll be able to find out what's going on.

The demon king chokes down his body in frustration, wondering why I wasn't there.

I'd stand there too if I were allowed.

I'd stand there too if I were allowed to... but a vicious smile was still plastered on his face.

As the three of them watch, Kojiro's speed has increased even faster since he wrapped the roots of the mineral tree around his arm, and it's still getting faster now.

The employees of the demon king's army, such as measurers and warders to protect this battle, are also glued to the scene.

The sound of overlapping swords slicing through space.

Just as the pressure of the swords created a storm in space, the same slash cuts through the storm.

.........

Before long, the demon king, who had only dealt with the attack with a smile, was also striking out with a sword of magical power in one hand.

Whenever the light twinkled, the human being was frightened by the attack and broke his stance, interrupting the storm of sword fights, but he immediately regained his stance and formed the storm again.

And the speed of its formation, or should I say the speed of its rebirth?

The longer you fight, the faster your ability to respond to the demon king's attacks grows.

At first, it was all I could do to duck and duck clumsily out of position.

The next time the same attack came, my posture improved, albeit slightly.

The next three times the same attack came, he would turn his blade to deal with it.

......... has already surpassed me.

She falls in love with him again, bravely though it is haphazard, foolishly but surely, step by step, not a breakthrough, but a step forward.

The existence of Jiro Tanaka, who fights against the supreme force of the Demon King's army, far surpasses the fighting ability of a woman named Suela Handelberg.

It was only one year.

When he first joined the company, he had been knocked down hand and foot, but over the past year he had grown up remarkably.

Suela chooses to laugh at the initial joy at his growth, which is both happy and sad and complicated.

The guy I almost killed back then, I never thought he'd come this far.

You have shortened our long years of study in such a short period of time. It's truly amazing.

The two men who laugh at first were awful and laugh, are impressed that they finally have a blade that can reach their own necks, and congratulate them for it honestly.

But even if those words are the words of truth from the bottom of their hearts, it is also true that there is something else involved.

Stepping into this realm was both good news for them, and a time to consider whether they could reach for the fruit that was beginning to turn red.

The blessing certainly rings true, yet the smile is muddled in two minds.

It'll be fun.

"Kakaka, you're right.

And as if to attract a smile, what caused the explosion.

Jiro-san, you've started to use magic too.

"Ah, there's a limit to what we can do against the Demon King with swordsmanship alone. It's time to extend our reach.

You can find a lot of people in the marketplace who are interested in this kind of thing.

Jiro, wielding an electrically charged mineral tree and wearing flames on his extremities, also begins to use other techniques besides swordsmanship.

It's a good idea to have a good time with the help of a good friend.

It's like you've used all the tools at your disposal. Himik, do you think he can reach it from your point of view?

I have to say that ......... difficult . The Lord's strength has increased dramatically. But still the Lord's strength.

Harsh and flexible, bold and refreshing.

Although Jiro was ingenious in using the battle in both light and dark.

But this is different.

Just one swing .

The words that Himikku looked at with a serious gaze become reality.

The magic sword is wielded as if to kick off the attack as if to say all efforts are in vain, and Jiro is blown away again.

It's a completely tame blow.

If the demon king had been serious, the first blow would have settled the issue, let alone this one.

The only reason he's still fighting is that the president hasn't given up on him yet.

There's still potential.

Jiro is able to stand because of the demon king's desire to show you more.

That's how much of a gap there is between them.

You can end this at any time.

That fact is enough to break the challenger's heart.

"Is it hard, then you'll be fine.

But in spite of the situation, Memoria, who changed her usual hard-to-reach facial muscles into a more understandable smile than usual, confidently replied in front of Himik's assessment.

"It's not unreasonable. That alone is enough to make it a possibility.

It's hard, said Himik.

But that would mean that the chances are not zero.

That's why Memoria dares to use the word okay.

......... Well, the Lord is okay with that.

If it were true, you might be asking yourself where that confidence comes from.

However, having seen Jiro in the past who has pushed the envelope so many times, they are confident that they can handle the word "difficult" in their hearts.

So let's watch.

With such expectations, the girls watch this mock battle without avert their eyes.

Another side End

Oh, Suela and the others are looking at me expectantly.

I tried every trick in the book and gave it my best shot, but I exceeded my expectations, but not my expectations.

They love you.

I'd like to live up to that expectation.

The magic is still there.

We'll work up the stamina.

But as for the means, I'm running out of ideas.

I've connected with the mineral tree to raise its sharpness, physical ability, and magic purity, and you still haven't reached the bottom.

The reality that it's only a matter of time before all else runs out is inescapable.

It is a situation where you are physically strengthening your body so that you can concentrate and process various information.

Therefore, he was able to pick up on the words of Suela and the other instructors.

The same is true for the president, who happily commented on my assessment of him.

I answered without embarrassment.

"Hmm, I guess we're out of ideas now?

I didn't have time to worry about the time when we started fighting, but now the word is finally coming out.

I can't help but feel helpless as the words came out while I was trying to distance myself and plan my next move.

The president tilts his head in a unsatisfied manner.

If so, that's a bit of a letdown.

And .

"Yeah, that's not what I expected.

The expression of the president's face, which had been happy, suddenly changed.

From an emotion of pleasure to an emotion of sorrow.

I'm sorry, but this is a waste of time, that face said.

We've gone beyond expectations, but not beyond expectations.

The atmosphere tells you that the time has come to determine that outcome.

A crunch is not an easy feeling.

Now there is no time to think about what to do.

But if I can't do something about the president who came to end it, it means I'm going to be that guy.

It means the boss will see the bottom of me.

It's only because I was fighting the rash until a moment ago that I hadn't yet reached the bottom.

It's time for the full extent of the situation to be revealed.

......... Phew!

I have only one thought about the fact that I was told that.

"Sir.

What is it?

"Can you not lick it?

Don't be silly, it's .

Take a deep breath.

And I'm about to swing the Reaper's sickle slowly down the throat of the president, who is flabbergasted by his decision with a magical spirit that says, "I ain't shown you the bottom yet.

The real thing starts at .........

The dragon's power was out of control, so I kept it in check, but that's as far as it goes.

I've broken in well.

I've mastered the strength of my body and the strength of my magic.

I've figured out how much power my body has and how much magic I have.

This is ......... I see, it seems my eyes were not quite ready yet either. You still haven't given it your all?

Seeing this scene, the president's expression changes again.

You'll find that the expression of the demon king's face changes frequently, so you can answer the question.

You've been a human before, and now you've been given dragon's blood. Moreover, I had no idea how to use it consciously. I really had a hard time controlling it.

"Ahahahahaha! You had full control in that short amount of time!

You'll be able to use it to make your life easier and more fun.

You'll be able to use your own magic, and you'll be able to use your own magic as well.

It's also difficult to adjust the strength of the magic.

It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what to expect when you're in the middle of a battle to feel as if you're not your own body, and it's annoying to be assumed that you're only that good.

No, it's only 70 percent at best. It wasn't enough time to control it all.

So I decided.

I don't care what happens.

I would forget about it all.

Still, it was amazing to see you were able to control your powers so well in that short amount of time.

I'm flattered by the compliment. But don't be surprised yet.

Honestly spoken words become a wave of magical power and make the surrounding area tingle with excitement.

The president is still in the mood for the amount of magic released, but he's happy to let it go.

I'll intercept the attack.

That sounds promising. Now, what have you got to show for it?

Fast .

A serious attack, though not at full force, is just outside the area I can currently perceive.

With the dragon's blood strengthening also taken into account.

There is essentially no way for me to prevent this imperceptible attack.

! Did you prevent this?!

I'm sure the president knew that, and yet my mineral tree was catching his blade.

The president was genuinely surprised for the first time.

It was the first time I exceeded her expectations in the realm of defense, not offense.

It was more than half a hunch, but it was in that area that I became her equal.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that I wouldn't want to miss.

I'll forcefully flank the president, who is taken aback, and prepare for my next attack.

"I raise the Four Principles of Earth, Water, Fire and Wind, Circle, Circulation and Bagua, to reach the realm of light and shadow.

I don't have time for this.

Without regard to the president, I said a line from the chant

"I will light the fire of Kaguratokoro no Mikoto to forge this blade.

I light the earth's ground and strike the iron.

I will cool the heat with the water of the sea god and purify it.

The iron folded by fire and cooled by water.

I will sharpen the iron with a lightning bolt of thunder.

The cold iron is sharpened by lightning to form a blade.

"And the name of that forged blade

I'll be able to use it as a weapon, and I'll also be able to use it as a tool to make it look like I'm using it.

It's a true trump card of mine, made possible by the blood of the dragon.

Only now, the mineral tree leads to mythology.

Amaterasu.

The blade of the sun revealed by magic.

A double-edged sword that burns away all the magic around it, affecting even me.

While feeling your skin burn, the blade containing sunshine ate through your blade.

The cut-off alone would send a heat wave through the air.

That heat wave sees enough influence to make the surrounding wards scream.

Its own magic and a body strengthened by the dragon's blood allowed it to be used.

But it's impossible to maintain this strength at all times.

We have one minute to spare.

.........

And the only thing the mighty power can do is to cut it down.

The president, blown away by my stance, silently re-formed his magic sword.

I'm annoyed that I'm being told that's enough.

Then take it, I step forward with all my might.

Yes, I'm fascinated by your potential.

Cut off with all your might.

The scorching sun embodied the violence of light.

Rather than ducking it, the president received it from the front and slashed through the light, and before I knew it, he was right in front of me.

That was great. I'll be counting on that in the future.

But the slashing certainly had an effect. The president was wearing a shirt that was charred in places.

And I was left with a clear scar on my right arm where I had cut my victim.

After the burn, it wasn't a light one, but a fairly severe one.

But your magic sword is alive and well, and its blade is around my neck.

Seeing the scene, I put down the mineral tree with all my might and close my eyes.

My admission that I had lost signaled the end of this mock battle.

Word of the Day

We have done our best, we have done our best.

We'll see what happens.
