Demon
Aristo believers’ history is profound. However prodigious and undying Asch may be, he’s still only born for about 200 years. It’s roughly 1000 years for them Aristo believers. A thousand years worth of knowledge that common people accumulated and passed down, had arrived at the knowledge that not even Asch can acquire.
That was, a forbidden method. If Convergence Magic is the last resort of Light, then this way is the last resort of Dark. Skilfully making use of Contract Magic, he changes his own Light into Dark and acquires an explosive strength. Asch spent 100 years and constructed a method to corrupt an Angel into a Demon, but the Aristo religion had devised a method for that to apply to a human.
A given for Asch, who’s a Renegade Ideologist, with a method that not even Hazen, the strongest Magician who can skillfully control the dual element of Holy Dark, can imitate, Samon temporarily acquired a power that surpasses them.
“……out of the way”
Samon’s personality shows itself occasionally. That, looked to be an awfully painful and sad-looking expression. It was the only sentience that remains in him, whose both body and heart turned into darkness, whose very own figure……and even personality ended up changing. No, it’s precisely because what ended up remaining was his sentience, that it looked even more sorrowful.
＜＜Oh Blessing Of The Saint, Envelop My Body, And Clad Me In Godly Speed＞＞ーーDivinity Garment(El・Seel)
Mira calmly chants Attack Support Magic as such and runs towards Samon. There’s only one choice. She can’t challenge someone with as much speed as him in a ranged battle. Only in an extreme close quarter battle, does she have a chance of victory. That’s, how she judged it.
Samon dodges Mira’s lightning-speed consecutive attack all too easily in response. Her agility that was amplified with magic transcends the speed of a High Warrior, however, not even that attack can hope to lay a finger on Samon.
“Darn doll”
Casually saying that, he stops Mira’s knife-hand strike and twists her arm off with brute force.
“……”
Mira instantly took several steps back and ceased her attack, but at the same time, she becomes painfully aware of their difference in strength and reformulates her strategy. If she focuses on defence, she’s able to buy tens more seconds.
Against Mira, who clearly discerned her disadvantage, Samon attacks aggressively without holding back.
On the other hand, Asch. Despite his blurry consciousness, he had continued chanting his magic. It’s been a few hours since his fight with Hazen. A magic that won’t come to fruition unless he expends all his remaining strength. A magic that’s necessary to contain the power that can defeat that monstrosity in his body. For Asch, there’s only one.
＜＜Oh Darkness Oh Darkness Oh Darkness, Depart, From The Sheol, Invite, The Grim Reaper＞＞
A black magic circle appeared from the ground, and the Demon Diablo appeared once again.
“Twice in this short span of time huh. You sure are quite the, demon driver”
The moment Diablo spoke, Asch rejoiced in his heart. The effect of sacrificing his left arm just now did not disappear. A glimmer of hope shines into Asch.
“Don’t say that. I’ll give you my precious flesh……I’m counting on you”
There are two reasons Asch realised Samon’s Contract Magic. One is, the fact that Julia, who tried to kill Asch with it, was a pious Aristo believer. And then……another one is, the fact that Contract Magic resembles Demon Summoning in disposition.
Diablo grins from ear to ear, thrusts those fangs of his into Asch’s heart, and devours it. While enduring that tremendous pain, Asch embraces that Demon’s head.
＜＜Contain The Demon In That Body, And Give Me, The Vicious Demon That Devour Even God＞＞ーーDemon Fusion(Evil・Fusion)
Instantly, darkness enveloped Diablo and Asch. Before long, the figure of the Demon was no more, and Asch was standing on that spot by himself. That was, clearly abnormally similar to Samon’s figure.
“You bastard……that figure……”
That skin of his, too, turns black, and along with overwhelming killing intent, he glares at Samon.
“Looks like I managed to surprise you”
Asch laughed lowly. A secret technique for close combat use, Demon Fusion. Asch’s New Magic(Original) where, by containing the Demon into that body of his, he can draw out the Demon’s superpower almost to the limit, it is.
“You bastard……are you insane?”
“That……goes for the both of us, doesn’t it. You instead, for you to exchange everything for darkness despite being a saint. It is beautiful. So mad it’s beautiful”
Asch smiles with a twisted expression.
“……”
“Oops……looks like we’re not left with much time huh. Now then, let’s do it with me. It’s boring with such a doll, isn’t it”
In Samon’s right hand, a depleted Mira is hanging.
“……yeah”
Supaa
Samon’s knife-hand strike severs Mira’s neck in an instant. Her red quasi-body fluid sprays like a mist and dyes his white vestment crimson red. Her neck flies all the way to the grass, and her body drops into the pond as it is.
Instantly, Asch’s face crumples.
“……congratulations. You are a splendid pleasure murderer as well”
“Did it bother you? It’s a doll, right?”
“……now then, let’s begin, shall we. The final battle”
Asch approached Samon at lightning speed.
