Chapter 39. Former hero?uses his trump card

Why, such a thing……

Currently, I am facing the demon race one on one.

Facing each other, of course, it’s with the meteor demon race Gaulband.

With the excuse Laurier made about defeating me and obtaining her, why are you listening to Laurier obediently and attempting a face-to-face match with me?

For demon race who were defeated once, do they fall in love fairly easily with their opponent?

Saying that somehow, are you seriously in love with Laurier who is 12 years old?

Consider the difference in your build, this lolicon muscle daruma!

Ah, I will retract it as lolicon is a boomberang word.

This muscle daruma!

With me being me and Sharon aside, Laurier is totally in observation mode.

About 30 minutes ago, I had comrades!

Even though I had thought the ending appeared good, it’s cruel.

When I look towards the fort in the distance, it’s also noisy there.

Leon’s group should have broken inside.

Leon. Your target is now in front of my eyes……..

I will hold out until Leon’s group comes, although I had intended to force it, when Laurier’s eyes filled with expectation were directed towards me, that did not take place too.

There will not be any reward when we return.

If I include the matter of the information beforehand, it’s punishment.

The time to use the basement finally came.

No, let’s concentrate seriously for now.

Although it seems that he had lost to Laurier once, the other party is a demon race.

I may be defeated quickly if I am careless.

“Haruto!

This is a formal duel!

Therefore, I will give my name formally first of all.”

Gaulband pledges in a loud voice.

What’s that?

Are demon race fond of duel?

Or is it an interest of the gentleman with that short rounded mustache?

“My name is Gaulband?Coop!

Betting Laurirer?Von?Steinhart, I propose a duel with you!”

Clenching his fist tightly, he suddenly stick it out to me.

Eh?

It couldn’t be, do I have to do that too when naming myself?

No way, but it’s shameful.

Errr, what did Leon say during the time for Laurier?

I feel like he said things that are somewhat shameful.

“……

I, I am Amagi?Haruto.

Err….that duel, I will accept it.”

I learn from Gaulband more or less, pointing the tip of my sword.

“All right.”

Gaulband who was satisfied assumes a pose.

I too, prepare my sword.

“Then, match!”

Gaulband declares the start of the duel.

Then at the same time, he jump back powerfully.

I had thought he will come rushing, and was bewildered momentarily with Gaulband’s action.

Damn!

There is no more than a single reason to suddenly take a distance now.

I started running to shorten the distance.

But, Iwas late by one move.

“Flames which burns down everything, bestow upon me the dwelling blaze!”

Gaulband activates the magic a step ahead.

Thereupon, Gaulband’s forearm was wrap up in flame.

Of course, it wasn’t a blunder.

It’s the magic that burnt the rocks.

That was applied to his own arm now.

With a roar, his arm was burning vigorously.

Huh, isn’t it hot?

Well, I do not the theory, but of course, it seems that the part covered in magic is not hot.

“Hmph!”

Rushing up towards me who was approaching close, Gaulband swings his burning arm with a feeling of a counter.

“Uoo!”

I leap sideways to avoid before that fist reaches.

Hot!

Although I wasn’t hit, I was wrapped up in the heat.

I cannot afford to eat such a thing directly.

Receiving it with the sword seems risky too.

It’s absolutely necessary to evade it with more margin.

Regaining my posture, I face Gaulband once again.

“Hmph! Your speed is not bad!”

While saying so, Gaulband comes rushing this time for sure.

“Hmph! Hmph!”

He was swinging his fist shakingly.

I adopted plenty of distance and avoided that.

“Shit, it’s hot!”

Still, my skin is burned and sizzling.

It’s out of the question to simply avoid.

I must attack too.

This time, I took a large jump backwards too.

I use magic after gaining a little distance.

“Wall of earth!”

It’s an application of Binding of the Earth.

Restriction will not work on Gaulband.

A wall of earth rises between me and Gaulband.

I load magic into my sword.

Even if I cannot bring him down with 1 blow, I will cut off an arm.

Think so, when I approach the the wall acting as a shield,

“Nuun!”

Although I wasn’t able to see it, I immediately knew what he did.

Gaulband simply knock down the wall of earth with that burning arm.

Although it should have been a fairly hard wall, it was blown away like a piece of paper.

The even more troubling matter is that the thing hit by that arm seems to burn too.

The splinter of the shattered wall flew towards me, clad in flame.

Uooo, are you serious!?

“Damn!”

I suddenly stop, and cut those flying pieces with my sword.

As expected, the burning doesn’t spread to the sword loaded with my magic.

But I have completely fallen behind entirely since the start of the battle.

In that time, Gaulband came before my eyes and swung that arm, aiming at me.

Shit! It’s such a troublesome arm.

However, I am not doing nothing too.

Avoiding that arm coming at me at the last minute, I swing my sword horizontally at that arm.

Because I barely avoided it, my clothes and hair are burned.

But, there is no time to care about such a thing.

“NUuuuuu!”

“OOooo!”

My blow catches Gualband’s arm.

However, Gaulband’s defense is even higher than Laurier.

My sword doesn’t cut off his arm, and stops at a spot, digging halfway in.

Furthermore, it doesn’t come out in a troublesome situation!

“Fuu! I caught you.”

Gaulband says.

And, he swings the unharmed arm towards me.

I cannot afford to eat that.

But, the sword doesn’t come loose!

Eeei, shit!

I released the sword, and avoid Gaulband’s attack.

And takes a distance once again.

Leaving my hand, the sword loses magical strengthening, and its durability becomes just an ordinary sword too.

Remaining stuck in the blazing arm like this, it is wrapped in flame and melted into a goo, and no trace of it was left.

D, Damn it…….

My weapon has disappeared……

Although I loaded it with all my magical power, it’s after all an iron short sword.

I wasn’t able to strengthen it to the extent to cut off the demon race’s arm huh……

If that’s the case, I should have bought a superior weapon with better magical efficiency.

Should I borrow Sharon’s weapon?

No, Sharon’s sword should also be the same thing as mine.

The result would be the same.

In addition, this is a duel betting Laurier somehow.

I have accepted that.

Laurier may not be convinced if I do not win with just my own power.

That’s the reason it’s troublesome…..

As for Gaudband’s arm where my sword cut into just now, the wound has recovered while going [Jubjubu].

Aah, mou!

The demon race is troublesome because of this if you do not severe it precisely.

“Fufuu…… Fuahahaha!

What will you do? Although you have lost your weapon, is it all right I wonder?”

Gaulband says with a triumph face while showing composure.

“Now, although it’s unsightly, it will be fine to kill you comfortably if you surrender gracefully.

But, if it’s said that you come towards me miserably, I will immobilize and torment you while making you watch me violate Steinhart, and then crushing that head under my feet.”

Convince that he has the superiority, Gaulband starts chattering non stop.

Tsk. Irritating.

Who is allowing you to do such a thing?

But, what should I do about the actual matter?

The offensive magic I have is extremely unlikely to pass, and flinging myself at the opponent with a flaming arm in a hand to hand combat is harsh too.

……

There is a way.

I use my trump card.

Now, if we talk about my feeling for the duel when I use that, I think I can win without any problem.

However, I prefer not to use it.

……

Ugh.

Seriously? fre ewebnovel.com

I have to do that……?

Fortunately, there are only Sharon and Laurier around now, and particularly if it’s the case of a person from the different world where magic is natural, they may not think anything of it especially but……

“Nnn? What happened?

You are making such a difficult face.

Seems like you cannot bear to surrender gracefully?”

Calm and composed, Gaulband’s provocation is irritating!

Looking at the 2 of them with a glance, Sharon naturally has an uneasy face, but even Laurier is slightly so.

Aaa…..I cause them to worry too much.

I was bad, the 2 of you.

Seeing such an expression, I made up my mind to use the trump card.

Disregarding Gaulband who was chattering and provoking, I concentrated my consciousness.

And, I chanted a little.

“The great magical power dwelling in my soul, gather, bundle and concentrate, become the sword of light to exorcise and defeat the demon……”

When I became a hero in Andalugia formerly, I carry a tremendous amount of magical power in my body.

It seems like I was summoned to Andalugia and selected as the hero for an ability like this.

And, using that tremendous magical power, I created the strongest magic first and foremost.

The control of this magic is extremely difficult, and it wasn’t possible to activate it without chanting.

And, I chanted taking that into consideration, for the sake of that magic.

At that time, I thought that appearance was good.

It’s youthful folly. Realizing it after returning back to earth once, I was behaving like a Chuunibyou. (TN: )

Thus, at the end of that chanting which appeared good, this magic was completed.

But however, it became somewhat embarrassing to chant halfway into my journey, and I seal this magic as my trump card.

Thereafter, I obtain weapons of the highest grade and the reason to use this magic is lost too, and without making an effort to shorten the chant, the magic was always idle as my trump card……

“Tearing heaven, splitting earth, the name of the sword to destroy everything is…….”

It’s a chant for a magic the 12 year old me then desperately thought up.

Although I may say a ridiculous thing, it cannot be helped.

An image has already been constructed within me, and because it was fixed with this chant……

“The God’s sword of destruction.”

Magical power concentrates on my right hand.

With just 1 person, an enormous amount of magical power that can even transfer someone to another world gathers.

There is no magical efficiency due to the material of the weapon, it’s a magical sword purely from power.

This is my trump card.

The God’s sword of destruction.

“!?

Y, You….. what is that?”

Sensing an enormous flow of magical power, the expression of composure disappears in an instant.

Sharon and Laurier are surprised too.

“Gaulband. You will regret making me use this.”

Gripping the magical sword in my right hand, I step towards Gaulband.

“……Nuuuuun!”

Gaulband’s burning fist comes towards me.

Facing that, I swing the sword.

The sword cut through Gaulband’s arm without feeling any resistance.

No, it wasn’t right to say that I cut it off.

The moment the sword touched it, that arm scattered completely.

“GUU!? OOOOOooo!?

W, What, this power…..!”

Although Gaulband gave a surprised cry, a return blow was inserted on his body.

Without emitting a voice to the last, Gaulband vanished.
