Ray didn't just watch Darb approach in silence.
　Hold a spear of death size and twilight and prepare for an interception.
　Darb had a cane in his hand, not a dagger, unlike when fighting in town.
　Naturally, the cane is not just a cane, but a cane that can be used as a weapon.
　As if to support Ray's prediction, Darb points his cane at Ray and sticks out sharply.
　Then, from the tip of the cane, there was a sharp needle growing.
　a brace
　Usually, when you think of a cane, it reminds you of a weapon like a sword in a cane, but the cane that Darb has is probably because a sharp needle extends from the tip of the cane.

(Of course, a cane isn't just a tree!)

　a blow that penetrates Ray's face with a needle extending from the tip of the cane
　The blow was quick and powerful and undoubtedly one of the best clowns in the organization.

"Whoa, whoa."

　and the same rasping laughter that came out of Darb's mouth.
　The laughter was also very effective in reducing the other person's concentration.

"What a nuisance!"

　Screaming sharply, Ray plays his cane with a twilight spear and delivers a death-size counter blow.
　A feat that can be accomplished only because he is a two-pronged Ray.
　However, Darb, who was originally supposed to hit Ray's death size, avoids the death size blade with a gesture unimaginable from his appearance.
　The instant movement that jumped back was enough to give the illusion that Darb's body was made of rubber balls or something rather than balloons.

"That's annoying!"

　Ray says exactly what he said a second ago.
　But if you're far away, all Ray has to do is attack the enemy.

"Killing!"

　Desize cuts through the air, not the durb, but the movement of the wrist forcefully raises the sword and shoots it.
　Only Ray and Seto have the ability to die without feeling the weight, so it's a hit.
　No, depending on the situation, it may be possible to do so even if it was heavy, but in that case, it would not have been possible to launch a chase so quickly.
　A flying slash from Death Size flies straight at Darb, who is away from Ray.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha"

　However, Darb laughs like that and avoids Ray's shooting.
　The jumping movement gave Ray the impression that he was a rubber ball rather than a balloon.

"But that doesn't mean I can't let you have your own way!"

　Ray, who screams, throws the spear of twilight.
　I didn't think it was like popping a balloon with a needle, but Darb easily avoids such a twilight spear throw.
　The speed of Ray's spear is not so easy to avoid.
　In avoiding it, Durb's ability was shown.
　Destroy the wall and return the twilight spear that ran into the next room.
　For Ray, Darb was a very difficult opponent to fight against.
　He was very talented, but above all, he seemed to belong to a clown, and it was troublesome that he made very tricky moves.
　If you're going to attack me straight, or if you're going to avoid it, Ray can read the movement.
　However, when a tricky move enters, the enemy's attack naturally becomes a mixture of feints.
　Of course, it's not like Ray has never fought against a feint-hungry opponent.
　On the contrary, it was only natural to make feints if you were above a certain level of ability.
　But Durb's attack was a fairly irregular move, even if it was a feint, which puzzled Ray.

(I've only been selected as an assassin among the clowns......I don't think I have that much feelings for my comrades.)

　Darb, who showed Ray breaking the backbone of the woman he was listening to.
　Naturally, it almost leaked the information to Ray... or, on the contrary, to prevent him from surrendering.
　Taking away all the important information, Darb was also an irritating partner for Ray.
　If we beat Derb here, we won't get the information Ray wants.
　Looking at Darb's condition, it seems unlikely that he will divulge any information.

(If this happens, we really need to burn this building down and destroy it. ... But even if we do that, it's probably only after we knock down the Durb.)

　Darb was acting like a rubber ball hitting a wall and bouncing back, but he didn't look away from Ray while doing that, and he was ready to react immediately no matter what Ray did.
　Despite receiving the gaze, Ray kicks on the floor.
　Ray cuts the gap with Durb at once.
　Throwing a spear in the twilight is a dot attack.
　If that was to be avoided, the attack of the line. It was to fire a death-size attack.
　Darb points a sharp, long needle at Ray.
　However, Ray doesn't seem to care about Darb's actions and acts death-size.
　The death-size blade hits the cane... The next moment, the needle at the tip of the cane is easily cut off.
　Normally, you could be upset by the destruction of your weapon.
　Nevertheless, Darb doesn't seem upset by the destruction of his weapon and pulls back the hand he was holding.

"I thought so!"

　Seeing the blade at the end of the handle of the training stick being pulled out, I let go of the twilight spear shouting so.
　Inside the handle was not a sword... but a weapon used for stabbing like a rapier.

"Huh!"

　It was probably because Darb was aiming for this development that he was able to use that rapier to deflect the blow of the twilight spear.
　After turning away from the spear of twilight, he immediately turned to Ray... exactly in Ray's face and gave a sharp thrust.

"Hey!"

　Ray slants his face with a click of the tongue.
　Rappia penetrated the space where Ray's face had been until a moment ago.
　Avoiding the blow, Ray wields his death size in his right hand.
　Although the gap was narrowing, we now had to give priority to getting the opponent to hit the mark.
　In that sense, Durb was more surprised this time.
　Ray's death-size and twilight spears are both long.
　That's why I decided that I wouldn't be able to fight back effectively if I had a chance... Now that I've got a chance, Ray has been acting death-size regardless of such a thing.
　Of course, Ray didn't do that without any meaning.
　In the case of a death-size blade, the blade has the power to match its violent appearance, but you can't tell how vicious it is just by looking at the handle, but it's very powerful when you're actually beaten with the handle.
　It's because you're going to be beaten with a death-sized handle that weighs about 100 kg.

"Gasp!"

　With a scream like that, the durb is blown away.
　Still, perhaps because of its balloon-like build, Ray's blow could only do damage to Durb that could not be called fatal.
　...well, it must have been fortunate for Darb to have been able to make room for Ray by hitting him with his elastic body.

(Stiff, you mean your body isn't what it looks like)

　Ray feels that way when he hits Darb with a death-size punch.
　The feeling that came from the death size was not as soft as when you hit the body with fat and fat.
　It feels like hitting the tire of a tractor I used at my parents' house in Japan.
　In other words, he was only a fat-looking Durb, but in reality his body belonged to a well-trained warrior - in this case an assassin.
　Of course, Ray expected that much.
　In the first place, there is no way a man who is just fat can move so agilely, and he can fight Seto evenly in any way.
　Or there was a possibility that he was wearing something underneath his clothes that looked like that, but given the feeling of hitting him with a death-size, he probably didn't.

(There's no doubt that it's better not to let them move freely, then...)

　Facing an unbalanced durb that blows off against a wall, Ray uses his skills, quickly closing in.

"Magic Shield".

　Any attack creates a once-in-a-lifetime but absolutely preventable light shield.
　In other words, once you are safe from enemy attacks.
　Then, when the light shield is created, Ray catches a dab at the moment of death and invokes the next skill.
　In the midst of this, the blow of Rappia emitted by Darb is prevented by the shield of light..."Cutting multiple pieces!"

　When he saw the shot, he must have sensed that Darb was also dangerous.
　He tries to avoid attacks deftly with his body like a balloon, but...

"Rock!"

　The death-size blade was successfully avoided, but the multiple sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword sword blade blade blade blade blade blade blade blade blade blade blade blade blade blade blade blade blade.
　The slashing blow hit Darb directly in the stomach.
　At first Ray thought it was blood when he saw the liquid spouting from his torn belly.
　I thought... the liquid spouted out is black.
　Blood turns black over time.
　However, fresh blood does not turn black.
　Doubtful of the black liquid, prioritize keeping distance rather than delivering a chase blow.
　Black liquid drops on the floor, but nothing in particular seems to happen.
　There is no doubt that there was a feeling that the liquid would melt the floor, but fortunately there was no such ability.
　Relieved by this, Ray confronts Darb, who holds the wound and looks angry.
　Up until now, I have never acted like a clown and put on a serious expression.
　However, now there is a figure of Darb staring at himself with a fierce angry and murderous look at Ray even when he is wearing makeup.

(What is it is?)

　I know you hate Ray because he's hostile to you and he's hurt by Ray's attack.
　However, considering Darb's short but familiar personality, I didn't expect him to reveal his hatred just because he was hurt.

(If possible, is it that black liquid? ... What is that black liquid in the first place?)

　Despite such questions, Ray prepares for Darb to act in any way he can.
　However, Darb is first treating the area cut by multiple cuts and glares at Ray, but there is no sign of action yet.

(No, treatment? If that black liquid wasn't blood, wouldn't it be repair or something like that? ...but it doesn't seem to change either way.)

　For the time being, if you don't know what Darb is doing, you say provocative words.

"Why? How long are you going to be scared of me? You were so confident, but you can't afford it now."
"... Whoa, whoa, whoa. Can't you keep doing this forever?"

　At Ray's words, Darb replied, but the laughter seemed more unreasonable than he had ever heard.
　After hearing that, Ray re-opens to gather some information.

"What was that black liquid? Is your blood black?"
"Well, what do you think? Maybe the resentment of those killed has turned into that color. If so, it's proof of how much resentment they've had."
"Really? If you're going to get a grudge, wouldn't you be the one behind the scenes?"

　Ray said so, but considering the number of people Ray has killed so far, it's not strange that Ray is hated more.
　Ray knows that, but he said it intentionally because he now needs to get information over there.
　Perhaps Darb knew that, without looking particularly upset, he even smiled, and then jumped the next moment... No, the expression bouncing like a rubber ball was appropriate, and he thrust into Ray with Rapia in his hand.
