15-15. The man closest to the devil



'What? Something's going to fall!
It's glowing like a fireball! Evacuate!

 The enemy monsters from the drop zone are gone, thanks to a scout who noticed them.
 Oh well, a little course correction.

Why are we taking an unnatural trajectory?
'Whoa!

 Yes, boom!
 I tried to explode in a huge explosion that engulfed the monsters while forming a crater that looked like a meteorite had fallen.
 However, I myself was completely unharmed as I jumped out of the explosion.

 As I jumped up into the sky, all eyes were naturally on me.

''I'm the new Demon King. ''Hello death!''

 As soon as I unleash the power word "death", countless monsters who heard my voice will die off at once.
 It's not a cheat ability, it's a magic I learned in a different world than this one, killing lives that haven't reached a certain level of strength.
 Well, I've added an arrangement to pluralize a single target.

 Now, we'll also experiment and activate some of the recently acquired cheat abilities.
 Petrified gaze on the right eye, on.
 The left eye is the look of fear, on.
 I'll also activate the physical enhancement system in duplicate at random.

''Well, Demon King! If we beat this guy, we'll get a big one!
'Oh, oh, oh!'

 The monsters that have withstood the power word are attacking all at once.
 However, most of them turned to stone with a petrified gaze, and even the monsters that were lucky enough to withstand the power word fled with a horrified stare.
 While slowly sewing between the stone statues, he used his disintegration magic to turn the disturbing stone statues into ashes and cut the monsters that attacked in confusion in half with his hand sword.

''Ah, this touch. The touch of killing, which is different from the sword, gives me a sense of life. I can't get enough of it after all!
Hi, hi! It's crazy!
It's a monster!

 The people who had been watching from afar, out of the range of their eyes and power words, began to flee in unison.

''A monster? No, I'm the Demon King.

 I mean, you're already running away.
 Oh well, okay, I like to chase down people who are running away.

"Self-Domain Deployment.

 Yes, the usual.
 We're not going to let an antelope escape, sir.
 Well, the total number of troops left trapped in the wards is about 100.
 In that case, we'll have to take out 100 men.

The Item Box.

 From the familiar item box, you take out two beloved swords from the item box every time.
 On the right is the golden holy sword that kills demons. On the left is the soul-eating, jet-black magic sword.
 Both are unmarked. It's a gem of my own work.

Light Wings Sprint.

 He walked around to the front of the people who were fleeing in fear and wielded his holy sword carelessly.
 The people behind them stepped on the tatara as the lead group that received the golden flash disappeared with a bash.

''Scratch your feet! Oh, my goodness! Stand up to it! Let me see my last glow!

 All of the group that summoned all of their courage to defeat me, this time all of them look at me and are petrified.
 I'm frustrated by the monsters that continue to flee in the opposite direction, and this time I swing the soul-eating magic sword down my back.
 The monsters that were hit by the magic sword turned into bodies without a single scratch, without spurting blood, and rolled to the ground.

''Oh shit, don't run away! Bring it on!

 Apparently there was a commander in the mix among the ones we've defeated so far, and the rest of them can't even act as a group.
 Since it doesn't look promising, I decided to literally end this place quickly and easily.

''Ta, help me. Just save my life!

 While hunting down the last demon world nobleman in the ward, we look at each other.

''No, these days... what do you call it... Warriors? I haven't been doing it because I've been doing RTAs to defeat the demon king all the time. Sometimes I just want to do it incessantly.
What the hell are you talking about?

 Ah, I've been petrified again.
 Hmm, I tried using the Magic Eye Cheat because I don't use it very often.
 When you want to play this warrior, it's boring on the contrary, let's cut it.

 I kicked the petrified demon world aristocrat appropriately and then lifted the wards.
 Around me, Cyanne's army is beginning to push in.
 Since I've captured part of the main force, the trend seems to be leaning heavily.

 I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.

"Demon Lord, please be safe.............

 I thought, but his face was drawn up in fear and he ran away with his hoary body.

'Oh, shit, I have to cut my gaze of panic, too.

 The magic eye system cheat can't distinguish between friend and foe, so it's only useful for slaughtering people in wards like just now.
 I mean, is this the reason why almost no one has stood up to them?
 Let's pretend it was my imagination.

Hmmm, what do you want to do later?

 I could join up with Sianne, but I'd rather do as I please.
 I can roughly identify friend and foe, but in a melee, I have no idea which side is which.
 Normally, I'd be fine with just killing both armies, but since Cianne is leading one of them....

 Oh well, that's okay. If I kill them, I'll take care of it then.
 It's not as if Sianne has any feelings for the Demon Lord Army.

It's not a good idea. Let's stop thinking about it!

 Tedious, tedious, tedious, tedious to breathe!
 At times like these, it's best to think nothing of it and let your fighting instincts take over.
 You can jump over the clashing monsters with a bang and jump into the enemy camp beyond.

 Then a bird-headed demon aristocrat is in a position where it's easy to cut him.

"Oh my, there's a chicken in a place like this!
Who are you?
"Ingredient ghetto!

 He skewers the chest of the bird's head with the magic sword.
 I destroyed the soul and collected only the body in the sealing beads.
 It's inconvenient, but if I don't do this, I won't be able to put the body in the item box.

''Ah, Felida-sama is dead!
Foolishly, the Seven Warlords are just like that?

 The Demon Realm nobles who seemed to be deputies reacted in a really straightforward manner.

''As a parting gift, I'll give you an express ticket to hell!

 While killing them instantly, I slashed and cut down any enemies I saw afterwards.

'What the hell was that guy!
Bunch up and go!

 Oh, I didn't activate the magic eye this time, so there will be a lot of interceptions coming in...

It's better than nothing.

 Of course it's good!
 And this time, they're just a bunch of flowery-headed people who think they can outnumber me. There is not an ounce of sadness in them as they head for the dead.
 Rather, they are convinced of their absolute advantage, and they have a cruel smile on their face as they try to torture the weak.

''Only by screwing over these people can I say I'm a TUEE, right?

 In general, when you are a warrior, you let the attack and defense be done by the copiousness of your fighting instincts, and you get rid of all stress.
 In other words, you will not go easy on yourself.

"Eat me!

 A flash of my enthusiasm literally explodes.
 The holy slash that broke through the wall of the speed of sound erased all of us together.
 The invisible souls that leapt out of the physical body were subsequently devoured by the demon sword's cleave.
 The demon sword that devoured the soul's lamentations from the fallen life collectively becomes gobbled up and gives me more power.

''Hi, hi!''
What kind of a man can't win!

 What the hell!
 What's the matter with you guys, you're giving up too soon! Don't give up!

Don't run away! Don't make me cower!

 I blasted those who had already stepped on the tatara and started to see what was going on.

'Come on, eat me up! Tie him up and torture him to death! That's the whole point of you monsters' existence!
 Fangs! Claws! Stick your horns into flesh and blood! Otherwise, I'll give you an end more horrible than my death!

 Semi-unconsciously activate a frenzied gaze.
 This guy should have exactly the opposite effect on the target from the panic gaze.
 In other words--.

Well, go ahead and burn your life away!

 The monsters roared in unison.
 Without fear of death, unafraid, unafraid, unafraid to flee, bloodthirsty, and possessed by the madness of destruction, the monsters' eyes were bleary red.
 The monsters, which had become truly berserkers, were neither friend nor foe, and began to kill each other.

''Hahahahaha! All right, boys, that's what monsters do! That's the way people's enemies should be!

 I, of course, leap happily onto the stage of the feast.
 Bitten, ripped by claws, tentacles wrapped around my neck.
 All of this was shaken off by force, slashed or trampled down by force...........................I was enjoying a battle that could be called a battle for the first time in a long time.

'What are you doing, you guys! Silence!

 A high-pitched female voice, disproportionate to such a bloody battlefield, echoed cheerfully.
 An older female demon, who seemed to be a Demon Realm noble, was casting a spell on the crazy monster.
 Is it fascination magic or something else?  Apparently he wasn't here to begin with, but he's learned of the anomaly from somewhere.

'Why! Why can't you get your way!

 The older man shakes his hair in frustration, as if he couldn't override my frenzy with magic.
 I can see a darkness behind those eyes that cannot be hidden.
 The eyes I've seen so many times before, eyes that are unique to a guy who only thinks of beings other than himself as tools.

 Yes, it's the same eyes as the god of shit.
 Then that's what I'm going to do with it.

Hey, you're going to ruin that pretty girl.

 With a light-winged sprint, he came around behind the older man and whispered in his ear.

''........Huh?''
You can get your makeup changed.

 Tons, and a light tone of voice pushes him back.
 Beyond that, the raging monsters.

"Gu--

 The screams of the older man's demise were quickly cut short.
 Ripped, eaten, or crushed.
 I don't know what happened to the old man's body anymore.

'Oh, good. You're all cleaned up!

 I'm used to flattery, you know.
