Chapter 112: V.S. Demon King
Ba-dump*. My heart beats so violently that it feels as if it has exploded. The blood rushes through my body at an unprecedented speed. The sheer force of it made my whole body tense, and my eyelids fluttered open as if my eyeballs were about to pop out of their sockets. I crouched on the spot, unable to resist.
“Gah!? Ah, ah, guhh!?"
Ba-dump*. Ba-dump*. Ba-dump*.
Flames burst unintentionally from my entire body. No matter how much mana was allocated to protect the body, the cells of my entire body screamed from the power overflowing one after another. My favorite military uniform, which boasts the highest level of heat resistance in the Kingdom of Light, burst into flames, and the floor in contact with my body began to melt. The flames prevent any oxygen from coming in, and I repeat my material breathing, but they become more and more painful with each count.
"Haa, haa... gah, ah, ah!? Guh, uu."
"Hoh. It seems that that human girl is indeed talented if she can drink that and not die."
A voice came from above. My body is lifted up by the tail of the succubus before I can raise my face. My eyes met with purple eyes that shone like jewels.
"Haa, haa... M-Maou. A-Aquamarine-san and Quartz-san... guh, uu... w-what happened?"
The pain was so intense that it was hard to tell the flow of time. There was no one moving in the arena except for Mina and the others who were still fighting with the dolls, and now the only evidence that they had been here was the fierce remnants of the battle.
“Don’t worry, I didn’t kill them. I just asked them to leave. But still... fumu."
My military uniform catches fire, revealing me as I was born. The purple eyes flashed with a bewitching light, and the Demon King's hand reached for my breast.
"Wha! What are you?"
"A limb that emits a dazzling flame. Isn't it quite intriguing?"
The Demon King's fingers moved downwards, tracing across my skin as she lightly plucked at the tips of my breasts.
“S-stop…… kyaa!?”
Her finger touched my exposed pubic area. The feeling of sharp fingernails on my delicate part. I felt a spine-chilling caress.
Rustle*, rustle*. Rustle*, rustle*.
"Hyaa!? S-stop... it. Stop..."
"Oh my, what's wrong with this? Beautiful, but stiff. You give an impression of being a maiden, but what a well-used pot. You would have to suck a man every day to bring out this nasty quality."
"Fua!? Ah? Ah! D-don't mess... with, me."
The Demon King's fingers rubbed my secret parts, and several small electric shocks that disturbed my thoughts were released toward my brain.
"Is it the beauty of a candle before it burns out? Your face, writhing in shame and pleasure, is so appetizing."
With a snap, the black dress falls to the ground. Her large breasts are exposed. The nipples are purple and erect due to anticipation, and the bushes on the lower half of her body are lush without being vulgar. Hot breaths were leaking from her mouth, and my lips were stolen away.
“Nhh!? ...S-stop... nhh... nnhhh!!"
The tongue that has invaded my mouth relentlessly twines around my tongue. The saliva made a lewd sound. And thenーー
Ba-dump*!! My heart pounded harder than ever.
"Guh!? Ah, aaahhh!?"
Sexual magic. The magic that exchanges mana mainly through bodily fluids can take away or give away mana depending on the user. A large amount of mana is sent from the Demon King through kisses and caresses. The flames emanating from my entire body increased in intensity.
The Demon King did not care at all about the flames. She just played with my limbs with the cruelty of a cat that is tormenting a mouse, and sent huge amounts of mana one after another.
"Hii ❤ guh, gah, gya!? Ah, guh, uu, ah, aahhh."
"It's all right, it's all right. Don't be afraid. I'll convert all the pain into pleasure."
"Wha! Wait!"
Psshhhh*!!
"Hyaaahh ❤"
Pleasure runs through my entire body. Wanting to stop the uncontrollable liquid unintentionally released from my lower body, I closed my legs and rubbed my thighs hard.
"Guh, uu~. Hya!? Ah... haa, haa... uu."
"'Hoh, I thought you might burn up with that orgasm just now. Fufu. You seem to have a lot of experience as a woman. You've been trained well."
It's not a pleasant assessment, but if I hadn't experienced the uncontrollable pleasure with Aquim so many times, I might have lost myself and burned out at that climax.
"But the end was only slightly prolonged. A few more caresses and you will be finished."
"U-uu. Stop, fuaa ❤ ah!? N-noo... haa, haa... stop, hyaa!?"
The Demon King's fingers rubbed my weak spot precisely where Aquim plays with me every time we have sex, and small pleasured began to flow again in my body. The Demon King's tongue drew a line of saliva on my chest, and her fingers playing with my secret place gradually increased their speed. I can already feel my second orgasm approaching. The flames that burst from my body finally overtook my physical protection and began to scorch my skin.
The unpleasant smell of burning meat. Maou's finger accelerates regardless.
"Haa, haa... s-stop... haa, haa... stop iiiitt."
"Kukuku. Cute. I wanted to play more slowly, but is it already the limit? Well then, farewell. A pitiful little girl who couldn't become anything."
Break*!
"Don't, mess around."
Pleasure. Fear. Fighting spirit. Reason. All the emotions that had occupied my mind were blown away before those unforgivable words. Only one thing remained: a magma-like rage that would destroy everything.
I couldn't be anything? Stop messing around!
"I am... I am... Aquim Bonvoul's attendant!!"
"Nuu!? This is!"
The reins of the mana I had been trying to suppress were let go, and I unleashed it with my emotions. The flames that turned into light burned the Demon King from close range. The restraints loosened. I quickly extended my hand.
"Come!"
I used my mana to draw the sword on the floor. Before the great red sword could fit in my hand, it slashed the Demon King's head with its huge blade.
Swoosh*. The Demon King's body disappeared. An illusion. When? I was astonished, but I shouted in anger, trying to give order to the chaotic flames emanating from my entire body.
"Red flame, wrap yourself in the hammer of determination! [Magic Armor]"
The flames that erupted from me swirled and concealed every inch of my body. The uncontrollable increase in mana creates the hardest armor I could muster.
“The brilliance with which you converted fire into matter at your age is brilliant. But is it because of your personality? You are good but boring, prioritizing defense over offense in this situation."
The demon king appears about ten meters away. I stare at her face, which seems to be a mixture of admiration and disappointment, but I think. It is true that merely wearing materialized armor will not be enough to defeat the Demon King. I remember the feeling I had when I killed the doll. That feeling! I want that feeling in my hands once again.
I poured more mana into the materialized armor.
"Revealed armor, regain the power of the flame. Release all your abilities, [Full Boost]."
The armor glows as if pulsating. The stability as matter fades from the armor, and power pervades my entire body. It is a state between fire and matter. What stirs within it is an explosion of energy that occurs at the moment when its nature changes from an object to energy. It is a temporary explosion that occurs because it is in a state of transition, and it is changed to a constant state. Maintaining this state, which combines the high energy of the flame and the strong stability of matter, requires more mana than I had imagined, but I had more than enough mana now.
"Hoh. This is... not bad."
The Demon King smiled happilyーー by that time I had already swung my sword down. The Demon King's body was split in half from the head to the groin. The floor cracked, but the Demon King's body disappeared. Using the power of this armor, my entire body is in a jet boost state, I move quickly from the spot. Immediately afterward, the ground is greatly gouged by an invisible force.
"Hoh, you dodged it well. And the flames shooting out from your back are quite beautiful, like wings."
Once again, the Demon King appears at a distance of about ten meters. The tip of her sharp nail pointed at me.
"Then how about this?"
Black lightning shot out from the Demon King's finger. I turned left using injection. There's no chance of winning except at point-blank range, so I will keep going around.
"Seize, Spirits of the Black Ice."
The Demon King chanted as if singing. My feet were caught in the ice that grew from the ground.
"Kuh, this thing."
"Pierce, Earth of Wrath.”
The next magic was immediately released. The floor rose up, and spear-like sharp edges came at me from all directions, trying to pierce me.
"Injection stop! Boost・Harden."
It drops its properties as energy and strengthens its material aspect. The glow of my armor faded away, and the mass of the spear came crashing down on my entire body. Immediately after, they hit the armor and were shattered. The attack was successfully prevented, but I was caught by the raised floor and unable to move.
I had to get out of here as soon as possible. As I was thinking this, the Demon King raised her right hand high in the air.
"Gather around in the name of the king. The shining sun. Become the fire that engulfs all."
A small sun appeared in the air. The heat was so tremendous that even I was not sure if I could prevent it. But still, I am surprised that she chose flames for the final blow.
The attitude of the person who is saying that he or she is better than me is really irritating me, which has become more aggressive due to the excessive mana.
I'll smash it.
"Boost・Reignite!!"
The red armor glows again. The mass that had been covering me had disappeared, and I am enveloped in an all-powerful feeling of being able to fly anywhere. A jet of flame from my entire body shattered the rock and ice that had held me captive.
The blade, more than three meters long, was poised upwards. The corners of the Demon King's mouth turned up belligerently, as though she sensed my intention.
"Okay. No tricks. I'll take it."
The tiny sun increases its area.
"Assemble, Knight of Flames. Become a blade and open the way."
It lights the flame on the blade. The glow of my armor naturally increased. The match will settle when the Demon King swings down her arm, which she raises to support the sun.
The surge of power continues to rise on both sides. The temperature of the entire arena rose at a tremendous rate. And thenーー a huge explosion of cold air occurred.
"Mu?"
"What?"
Ahead of the Demon King and I, a huge body over two meters tall was frozen in place, its body pierced by a bundle of thorns like a large tree. Is that Gorkin-san who is collapsed at the edge of the arena?
Pieces of ice crumbled and fell to the ground. Is that...... the bottle that contained the S-rank magic potion intended for Floria-sama?
"Mina?"
The thorns were wrapped around Mina's naked body, which was probably blown away by the explosion earlier, and conspicuously hid her pubic area and breasts. The ice's beauty is accentuated by its horribly sensational appearance, as though we are looking at a work of art created with the utmost precision and calculation. The mana radiating from Mina's entire body was incomparable to anything I had ever seen before.
"Interesting."
The Demon King's belligerent smile deepened. Mina put on a somewhat cold atmosphere and chanted.
"The Snow Queen commands. Life is equally icy. Ruthless blizzard doll.”
The thorns that had been wrapped around Mina's legs reached the ground and split in three directions. The icy thorns knotted and overlapped to create three frozen snow dolls.
Dolls wrapped in cold air attack the Demon King.
"The king desires. Let the flames rain down. Meteor flame."
A fiery meteorite shoots out from the minuscule sun. The snow dolls exhaled softly, and a blizzard was made.
The scorching heat and cold air are competing and mixing. But I wasn't going to stand idly by and watch.
"Uoooh!!"
The dolls created a huge jet centered on their backs and broke through the torrential downpour of flames that poured down. This is the end. The flames were concentrating on the snow dolls created by Mina, and the barrage was small on my side.
"Flame Slash."
I swing the burning red blade at the Demon King's neck.
It will reach her! I was sure of it. Butーー
"Explode. Fire."
The sun in the air exploded.
"Guaaa!?"
Unlike the Demon King, who escaped by spatial magic, I was hit by the full impact of the explosion and was knocked to the ground. However, if it was the me now, I would be able to survive this level of impact.
"Even if you're fine, isn't your situation fatal?"
"!?"
The Demon King was standing right next to me, holding up a black spear. Before I could even open my eyes, an ice thorn pierced through the Demon King's chest.
Swish*. The Demon King's body disappeared.
Another illusion? I was startled, but when I hurried to pick myself up, I found Mina being struck by black lightning a few dozen meters away from me.
"Mina!"
I shoot flames from my back and slashes at the Demon King who let out black lightning. ……Is it really real? Seeking an answer, my brain compresses time as much as possible. A shimmering object caught my eye. A shard of ice floating in the air. There were several of them, which I thought were created by Mina.
Considering their position, I think that the purpose was to reflect the Demon King, but what in the world was Mina doing that for?
I stared at them, and then I realized. The Demon King was not reflected in the mirrored ice. The sensation is further compressed. With my brain screaming, I quickly look through the ice in the air. On my left. I swung the red blade as hard as I could at the empty space.
"Nnh!?"
Blood splatters and the Demon King groaned as she appears. For the first time, my blade reached the Demon King.
"Troublesome."
Black lightning shot out from the Demon King's entire body in all directions. It was like lightning running through the clouds, destroying the mirrors floating in the air. Of course, the black lightning also attacked me.
If it comes, come.
The armor is perfect. If it is just lightning, it will never get through. Even if I take some damage here, I'll still be able to take the Demon Kingーー
"Gaaahh!?"
The impact that hit my armor blew me several meters away. What power. It was as if a huge block of iron had collided with it.
“W-with something like this!"
I created a huge jet of flame from my back and forcibly closed the distance between me and the Demon King. My attack had just hit. I can't let this attack be completely cut off.
Ignoring the screams of my body and armor, I manage to get to the Demon King in time. Butーー
"Your attack is good. But it is predictable."
What kind of movement is that even though she is wearing a dress, a garment not suited for battle? The Demon King is dodging my sword, which has gained unprecedented speed with the full boost of magic armor, with a graceful elegance as if she were dancing. Sweat trickles down my cheeks. This is not good. I didn't think that even melee combat, which is my forte, would have a huge difference in skill.
Perhaps realizing my weakness, the Demon King began to counterattack.
"Cut them into pieces, blades of wind."
Countless winds became blades and struck the magic armor. A burning heat ran through my entire body. The sharpness of the wind exceeded the hardness of the armor.
"Is that all you have in your hand? Then this is the end."
The Demon King who slipped through the crimson blade whispered in my ear. If I returned my blade, I can reach the Demon King.
I am aware that I am being played completely. Even if we were to engage in simple melee combat at this point, I would not be able to defeat the Demon King. I must somehow disrupt the Demon King's movement.
"Coming by royal command, the sound of military boots shook the earth. All things are frightened, even time is bound and hangs its head. Nothing can escape the great one."
Chanting magic. I would like to shorten it if possible, but it is difficult to do so with advanced magic which I am not familiar with, and the Demon King takes this opportunity to unleash her magic on me, whose movements have slowed down due to concentrating.
Fire, water, earth, and lightning converged. I put all my strength into my armor and just endure.
And the magic was completed.
"All things must bow to the earth, [Graviton Hall.]"
Gravity overtook everything within a ten-meter radius around me.
"Mu."
"I got you!"
I slashed the neck of the Demon King, who had apparently slowed down, with my red blade.
Swish* The Demon King's body disappeared.
"What!?"
"You need to pay attention, inexperienced one."
A voice from behind sent chills down my spine.
Not good!?
My body stiffened in preparation for the coming damageーー the shards of ice that fell to the floor turned into icicles and went to attack the Demon King.
Just as I had been so focused on defense and magic that I had neglected to check on the Demon King herself, I had been caught off guard.
"Bounce."
A wave of mana was released around the Demon King, who did not seem to move at all. It shattered the icicles and blew my body away.
I looked over to see Mina, who had collapsed from the damage of the Demon King's black lightning, looking at me. I knew immediately that she was going to do a follow-up attack.
"Blizzard・Block"
She must have finished chanting long ago. A huge ice wall appeared in front of Mina.
"What? Are you going to run away?"
The Demon King tilted her head as she looked up at the wall of ice that had formed to separate us from Mina. Immediately after, the ice was transformed into water. The water did not flow toward Mina as if there was a transparent wall, but came at me and the Demon King like a tsunami.
"...What are you going to do with that?"
The water is not a threat to the Demon King, no matter how large the volume of water is. But that is probably why curiosity got the better of it. The Demon King showed no sign of moving by spatial magic. I began chanting in secret.
"For the time being, I hope that you didn't give up."
Mana is converging in the Demon King's palm. Just before it was released into the oncoming water, the tsunami instantly turned into gas.
"This is... oxygen?"
Conversion magic. When water is converted into gas, depending on the method, a large amount of oxygen can be produced. But to vaporize that amount of water in an instant is a feat......
While being amazed at Mina's skill, I check the shards of ice floating in the air. The Demon King was definitely there.
I unleash the completed magic.
"Flame Dragon."
"Mu?"
Then the Demon King looked at me. But it was too late. The flame dragon hit the mass of oxygen created by Mina.
Mina's voice overlaps with mine.
"Five Elements Synergy・Water Flame Booster."
A huge explosion occurred immediately afterward. It became a sphere that surpassed the tiny sun that the Demon King had just created and swallowed the Demon King.
"...Alright."
I felt a response. The magic should have definitely hit the Demon King directly. I don't think we were able to defeat her, but I'm sure we were able to inflict some damage.
Both Mina and I wait for the moment when the flames subside in order to finish her offーー I planned to do so.
"What?"
The sphere of flame that consumes everything rapidly becomes smaller and smaller. The sudden change was obviously not natural. But before we could take any countermeasures, the flames disappeared as if they had been sucked into a hole in space.
"Umu. It's delicious."
The floor was scorched, and the smoke rising from it emitted a foul odor. The Demon King was standing there comfortably in a place like the bottom of a cauldron of hell. Her limbs, which had been exposed, were once again wrapped in a black dress, and on her back were wings of flame reminiscent of butterflies. Her figure, a mixture of a woman's bewitchment and the beauty of nature, resembles a queen reigning in the glittering night.
"Did you absorbed...... the magic we unleashed?"
Drain magic. No wonder the demon king, a succubus, could use it. It's not strange, but...... I didn't think it was possible to absorb that much energy.
A shiver runs through my body at the bottomless power of the Demon King.
"Well then... let's start again?"
"Kuh."
"......"
The next moment, the Demon King split into two. The Demon King attacked each of us.
Which one is the real one?
In front of the overwhelming speed, I didn't have time to think about such things.
Slash*.
I unleashed an all-out blow with no thought of a second blow. The blade blasted fire with tremendous force, and the Demon King, who was coming toward it at super speed, was intercepted.
"Things like that don't work!!"
As soon as it touched the Demon King's body, the blade shattered into pieces. With the same momentum, the Demon King's fist hit me in the abdomen.
"Gaha!?"
A tremendous impact. The armor on the part where I was hit shattered into pieces. My body was sent flying.
"Not yeeeett!"
I was hit from behind. The armor shattered, and my back made a sickening sound upon impact. Before I could raise my voice, I was kicked in the stomach. The armor shattered. I was kicked in the shoulder. The armor shattered. I was kicked in the leg. The armor shattered. I was kicked in the face, in the chest, in the thighs, in the buttocks, and every time I was hit, my armor shattered.
"...Fumu. Is this it?"
"Gah, ah, uu... no, ah... ugh."
My neck was grabbed, and my battered limbs shook dizzily. Beyond my misty vision, I saw Mina, who was also grabbed by the neck and battered just like me.
"I've done it myself, but it looks terrible. Isn't it ruining your beautiful faces?"
The Demon King's palm strokes my body.
"Well, it's something like this. I left the damage as it was, but only cleaned up your appearance. It's called death makeup."
I wanted to say something sarcastic to her for her thoughtless concern, but I couldn't even speak because I was being strangled.
Defeat. That word weighed heavily on my exhausted body.
"Now then, let's have some fun before I kill you."
The demon king's eyes once again lit up with a suspicious light. And her hand was on my pubic area.
"I'm not going to let my woman die."
At the same time as the familiar voice, the head of the Demon King, who was holding Mina's neck, flew through the air. As soon as the head hit the ground, the color of the skin disappeared and everything was painted black.
Was it a doll? No, more than that...
"A, A-Aqui... m."
Tears overflow. What is wrong with me that I feel like this when I see his face?
Aquim gently lowered Mina from his arms.
“You did your best, didn’t you?…… Are you okay?”
In response to Aquim's question, Mina nodded slightly while giving her the usual stare that she usually gives people.
"Is that so, then rest now."
Then the Knight of Light and the Demon King confront each other.
"...Hero, aren't you here quite early?"
"I had enough mana to spare."
“Hoh, as expected of a hero. You broke that magic...... but still, you said you had spare."
The Demon King's face broke...... into a wicked smile. She turned to Aquim as if using me as a shield.
"Look! Your attendant is in my hands. If you attack... you understand, right?"
"Wha!? D-don't be silly! Aquim, don't care about me... wha!?"
Suddenly, a floating sensation. The Demon King's body is moving away from me in my upside-down vision.
Was I thrown toward Aquim?
By the time my understanding caught up with reality, a succubus' tail, the tip of which had turned into a spear due to mana, was already right in front of me. This is...... impossible to dodge.
Then at least!
I will risk my life to catch the tail that will pierce through my body so that it will not hit Aquim.
But my back was pushed. The tail passed by my side and pierced through silver armor.
"…………Eh?"
It was an incomprehensible sight. I was knocked to the floor, unable to catch myself. I looked up in dismay and saw Aquim's chest pierced by the succubus's tail.
"Kuh."
A small sound was heard and fresh blood overflowed from his mouth. But Aquim is not intimidated. He cut off the succubus's tail with his holy sword and closed the distance between them with blinding speed.
"Ooohh!!"
Slash*! The holy sword cut off the Demon King's neck.
It all happened in an instant. I can't quite comprehend what happened. No, I didn't want to understand.
The Demon King's head falls to the ground. Unlike earlier with Mina, its color does not disappear. It's not a doll. But, more importantly.
“Aqui… m?”
Clang*. The holy sword fell to the floor. Aquim turned around. Our eyes met. Without any words coming out...... Aquim collapsed.
I suppose this is the equivalent of a senior disciple's initiation test.
