After all, Koga is a troublesome guy.
His personality is the same, but what is more troublesome than anything else is that this guy's combat power itself is too troublesome.
The technique he uses and the way he fights makes me feel like I'm fighting with myself.
Also, it's annoying that he gets up with a smile on his face even if he hits him or hits him.
"Again and again, you get up, you're a zombie!"
He screamed as he smashed the walls and moved around the room at a dizzying pace, causing Koga to frown in disbelief.
"As expected, I don't want to be told that I'm going to recover immediately with healing magic!?"
"I never thought that the day would come when I would agree with Koga...... words."
Ferm mutters in a daze.
In the meantime, Koga's bloated arm looms.
Checking it visually, he squeezed his strength into his arm and hit it back head-on with the arm of the beast covered with black magic.
"Nhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
"Whoa!"
The enhanced fist easily smashes the bloated arm head-on, knocking Koga flying.
Drawing a fist covered in black magic, he glared at Koga as he landed.
"Don't think you can beat me with power, because my power right now is a magical beast...... Whew!"
"Is it a declaration ...... outsiders?"
It's about Burlin's power!
But that doesn't stop Koga's smile from disappearing.
Are you trying to tire me out?
No, I can assure you that this is absolutely not the case.
If...... Are you trying to prolong the game and enjoy it to the fullest ......?
Oh my gosh, it's possible......
"Ha, ha, ha, ha!"
「…… Huh?"
Koga suddenly bursts out laughing.
I was also taken aback by the sudden change without warning.
"Oh,, I don't want to end it."
「…… I—"
"I know, you have something to do, don't you? Then I'll make it the last one in the next attack."
Koga lowers himself and creates sharp claws made of dark magic on his arms.
Along with that, the muscles in his legs swell.
I don't know what kind of change of heart it is...... I know that Koga is going to attack with all his might in the next attack.
If that is the case, I will have to respond with a certain amount of determination, or I will be the one who loses.
「…… Ferm, exclusively for Koga"
"That's it, isn't it?"
"Please."
My right fist is about one size bigger.
Poor trickery is meaningless.
Then I will strike Koga down with my most trusted fist.
「……」
「……」
Silence reigns as they stare at each other.
We've fought so many times to get to this point.
The first time we just repelled them, and it was like a draw.
The second time, in the middle of the war, it was far from settled.
The third time, they had to fight together, and Koga himself was seriously injured.
I'm aware that I have a certain connection with him, and I understand his personality very well.
That's why your actions to end the fight here are inexplicable.
"I know you're prepared for it, too......
As the Koga in front of me jumps forward, I also greet him.
Mixed gazes.
Two claws wielded in a curved manner and a fist thrust out in a straight line.
"Usatooooo!"
"Koogaaa!"
He dodges the wielded right claw by crouching down.
His left claw, which is wielded in succession, is thrust out while stretching out the sword mountain just before the outburst of system enhancement, but after seeing it, he dares to plunge into it.
"Whew! Oooooh!!"
Ignoring the pain of the thorns piercing his side, he slams his fist into Koga's torso.
"Ferm! Nea!!"
A restraining spell flows from his fist, temporarily blocking Koga's movements, and the magic that covers his right arm dissolves into a belt from above, fixing Koga's body with my right fist.
After seeing him in confusion, I swung my arms around with all my strength and slammed him to the ground.
"Goha......!"
"It's your own form...... Eat it!"
"Oh, you, no way—"
"Healing Continuous Fist!!"
With Koga's body slammed into the floor, he slammed into the first technique that defeated Koga, the Healing Strike Fist.
A technique that consumes less magic power than before and makes it more efficient.
I'm going to hit this guy with all my might right here ......!
"Usato, first pull out the pierced claw and heal the wound!"
The flank, where the claws of his left arm are still pierced, have a fever.
I ......'t do any soft training that would make me lose consciousness with this level of pain!
Regardless, he fires a barrage of fists.
"The floor will collapse and you will fall!"
I don't care!
I know best that you have to attack that much to get past this guy!
Every time he slammed his fist, a large crack appeared in the floor.
"Ka, ha, ha, ha!"
"Fall!"
Raise your fist and swing it down as hard as you can.
The attack shattered the floor, which had been covered in spider webs, and collapsed at once and fell to the floor below.
As my body and Koga's body fall, the claws are pulled out of my side, and Koga's restraints move away from me.
「…… Shhhh
He manages to land while healing his flank and jumps down before hitting the rubble.
The place where the rubble fell was enveloped in white smoke, and Koga could not be seen.
「…… Here."
If you look around, you realize that the place where you fell is in the passage you were in earlier.
As proof of this, I could see the ceiling that Koga and I had broken when we went upstairs, and there was a huge door just ahead.
"Did you manage to defeat Koga......?"
There must have been a response.
Completely healing his wounds with healing magic, he proceeds to the rubble where white smoke spreads.
However, before I could get closer, I saw a shadow rising in the white smoke and stopped.
"Koga ......"
"Gee-ho, oh,, I'm going to lose it if I don't go straight to it-"
Koga, who is covered in soot, shows a disposition of regret.
I'm sure he still has as much energy as I do, but he doesn't want to fight anymore?
Regardless of my lack of vigilance, he rested his back on the stone pillar by the huge door and sat down.
"You can go ahead, the Demon King is waiting for you down the road."
Is there a demon lord down the road?
He involuntarily looks towards the large door, but he doesn't understand why Koga would act in such a betrayal here.
「…… What are you going to do?"
"Apparently, I've only been going to do this since I met you here."
"What?"
Eh, so what's the point of fighting so far?
Even if you get used to pain, what hurts hurts, right?
"Honestly, it's more fun to have a fistfight with you without thinking about the future of the Demon Clan than to worry about the future of the Demon Tribe."
「……」
"I understand that you look disgusted, but that's the saga of the demon tribe that I am. Give it up."
Koga laughs at me, who usually looks disgusted.
Nea and Ferm, who are inside, are pulling the strings.
"Well, I mean, I'm not going to quarrel with you, I'm not going to settle it."
"Huh."
"If you win against the Demon Lord, I can fight you again as an enemy, if I lose...... Well, even if you are a healing wizard who is not in the Demon Tribe, you are a mysterious creature that is far from human, so you will be kept alive by the Demon Lord's interest. It could be hell for you."
"Do you think I'm going to suffer like hell?"
"I didn't expect that back......
I'm experiencing something else beyond hell right after I've been transferred to another world.
Or rather, who is a mysterious creature.
"Either way, the Demon King is interested in you and the heroes."
"To me? Why?"
"Ask yourself."
I do as I am told, placing my hand on my chest and asking the question.
"Nea, Ferm, and Burlin, do you understand?"
"Yes."
"Guru"
"You know what's in my heart, this bastard."
"Do you really want to ask yourself and get an answer......
For some reason, he is drawn to Koga.
How can this be called unreasonable?
But this paved the way.
"If you go through that door, you're going to face the Demon Lord."
I wonder if Senpai and Kazuki have already arrived?
I can't confirm that until I go further on, but at worst, I may have to face it alone.
At that time, I had no choice but to run away with all my might and buy time.
No, wait...
"Then I'm going to use you as a traitor as a weapon and slam it against the Demon Lord, alright, this would be a good shield."
Oh, stop trying to hold your legs......
"Hahaha, don't be serious, I'm kidding...... Just kidding."
"You were serious, ......!"
As expected, there is a danger that you will end up in a situation where you are dealing with both Koga and the Demon Lord, so you should leave Koga here because he has lost his will to fight.
"Are you ready......
Whatever awaits you, you have to open the door first to know what's going on.
He takes a deep breath and glances at Koga as he sits down before making his way to the door.
"I'm looking forward to seeing what you're going to do in front of the Demon Lord."
「……」
He frowns at the sound of Koga's voice as he touches the door.
At the same time, the door opens on its own with a heavy sound.
The first thing that caught my eye was a dimly lit hall.
The interior of the hall, lit by candlelight, evokes an eerie impression, but at the same time exudes aristocratic elegance.
And at the back of the hall is a throne, and there is a man sitting on it, and beside him is Ciel Mr./Ms., a demon in the form of a handmaiden.
"You were the first to come."
He looked down at me as I stepped into the hall through the door and muttered:
———-senpai and Kazuki have not yet arrived.
Even though he was tormented by a chilling sensation at that fact, he did not take his eyes off the Demon King.
The Demon King, whose mouth twisted when he saw me, moved his hand with his elbows resting on the throne.
With just that, a large long table and three chairs are lined up in front of the throne from nowhere.
"Sit down there and I'll welcome you there."
「…… What are you going to do?"
There were three chairs prepared.
It would be natural to think of it as me, Nea, and Ferm, excluding Bulllin.
In response to my question, the Demon King smiled cynically.
"I've been wanting to talk to you, so I don't mind if you keep fighting......
In an instant, a number of circular magic circles appeared around the Demon King.
They all had different patterns, giving them a strange sense of power.
"Can I deal with you until the brave arrives? Usato"
「…… Whew."
"Usato, that's all...... Witchcraft......
Forty is well over forty, countless spells.
If they all have separate forces, it is not a matter of threat.
Originally, if I was alone, I would have planned to run around and buy time, but even that might be tough without Senpai and Kazuki.
「……」
Without a word, he unassimilates Ferm and sits down in a chair.
The opponent is the Demon King.
Don't think of it as just talking.
Feeling the intense pressure just in front of me, I face the Demon Lord.
