　Kayla, who has taken on the power of the Demon King, has transformed so much that it is hard to imagine her original appearance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Her stature is well over three meters.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Even now, her body continues to grow.

　Since a demon's body is composed of magical power just like a demon's, the effect of taking in the power of the Demon Lord, which can be said to be a massive magical power, is immeasurable.

"It is ...... that is the physical enhancement."

"I see. So you're not strengthening the demon's power, you're strengthening its body. I wonder if demons are stupid enough to strengthen their bodies in that way with the power of the Demon Lord. ......

　The scary thing about the Demon Lord is the amount of magic he deals with and his own skill.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Simply taking in a large amount of magical power doesn't mean that he has the same power as the original Demon Lord.

"Yeah, it was a hell of a force. I hope I can at least avoid a direct hit from the front.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... Koga aside, Usato is still strange in many ways, isn't he?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　...... I'm using precognition magic to coordinate, but somehow the two seem to be working together incredibly well.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Maybe it's because they are rivals and similar.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With a great swing, he hurls it at Kayla.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Bind him!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Just before the alter ego returned to human form, it transformed to wrap itself around Kyra's body and stopped her movement with a spell of restraint and dark magic of fire.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That guy is vindictive, strong, and persistent, so you won't be able to get him off that easily!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You say too many words!

Mr. Nagi!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He nods at the sound of Usato's voice and heads toward Kyra, who has her upper body blocked from moving.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"KOGAA!　Let's go!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yeah!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And then, just as they have completely stopped moving, the two clad in dark magic come rushing in, their faces already looking too merry to look at each other.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Koga's upraised arm expands, and blue-black flames erupt from the elbow of Usato's right cage hand---and hit Kaira at the same time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A thorn from the outburst of Koga's magical power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A fist from the acceleration of Usato's mysterious flame.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kyra was hit by these blasts, and her huge body was blown away and slammed to the ground.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... I'm not a weak opponent."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The other party is a demon that has taken the power of the Demon King, even if it is corrupt.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He is using it to strengthen his body, so if he were a normal person, a blow from him would be fatal.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What was that?　Didn't you just now accelerate in a way that doesn't make sense?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"My magic. I call it the "National Acceleration Charm." Hmm..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"....... Roone. You don't seem to realize it, but you've been brainwashed by Usato."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Don't try to convince me with your ever so gentle voice."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I realize it again when I see Usato putting Koga's alter ego back in his hand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In the first place, Usato is facing the Demon Lord.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Compared to him, he would not be intimidated by most opponents.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　...... I also feel that the battle is going much easier with him in my life.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"So we've done some damage ......, but let's see what happens ......."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He looks at Kayla, still wary.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　...... hmm?　He stands up, bouncing, his body regenerating, emitting smoke.......?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, so that's what this is about."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Nagi, did you notice something?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The immortality of demons.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Demons are basically immortal.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　No matter how mortally wounded they are, they regenerate over time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Regeneration requires a certain amount of power, but right now Kayla has the massive energy of the demon king's power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"G-G-G-Gaaaah!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Demons are immortal. No matter what kind of wounds they inflict, the power of the Demon Lord can heal them. No, on the contrary, his body can withstand the load for a long time, so he can be strengthened to any kind of crazy strength.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kayla is sprawling on the ground, seeking power and trying to transform into something more.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is a miracle that she has retained her human form.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Her arms have grown large, her lower body looks weak, and the clothes on her upper body are torn to shreds, so that even a trace of her former self can't be seen.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　--Uhhhhhh!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Koga!　He's near Usato!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What?　Hey, how did you know ......?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Me?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I see the prediction in a few seconds and immediately move to be close to Usato.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At that moment, a magical light overflows from every part of Kayla's body. It is not just light, but a dangerous attack that can bring destruction just by touching her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　While scattering them all over the ruins... he shoots a massive flash of light from his mouth at us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Usato!　You can stop this!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm on it!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He believed me and stepped forward without hesitation.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He thrusts Koga's alter ego, which he had been holding close, into the ground, transforming it into a shield.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Let's go, KOGA!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Of course!　It's a healing guard!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Stop trying to make things up in your head that no one else can understand!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He halfheartedly passes over Koga, who is seriously puzzled, and grips his alter ego, which has been transformed into a large shield, as if supporting it with both hands.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Nah!　Keira!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's a spell of resistance!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I wonder if ......, working with Usato naturally makes it easier for us to understand his intentions and so on?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Gah!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's coming!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A massive amount of magic power is released and hits Usato's shield, scattering light.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Koga and I support him from behind, but the shield, transformed by Koga's alter ego, is crumbling from the edges.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hey!　This Koga is so fragile!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hey, show me some guts!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That's not me!　I'm right behind you!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The alter ego is getting worn away, but it's all right.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Because Koga's alter ego is covered by healing magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Strengthen the system!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And Usato is a master of lineage enhancement.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The shield, which is instantly restored by the highest level of healing magic, prevents the magical attack.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Phew!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When the torrent of magic has subsided, Usato transforms his shield into the shape of a left-handed basket hand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kayla, who was across the shield, had undergone yet another transformation.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Uh-oh. ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Is the magic power that should have been suppressed by the body overflowing outside?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The eyes and mouth are overflowing with black magic, and the disintegrated torso and joints are holding the limbs together with only their magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"......Well, it's not even a living thing anymore."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"The demon's immortality is forcing the disintegrating body to stay together, I suppose. It's as if they're so oddly compatible with each other that they can't break down, and they're endlessly going through hell."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I've never seen anything like it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That's how dangerous the power of the Demon Lord is.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kaila, now a monster of magical power, roars ferociously and tries to move.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　---I saw her arm sticking out in my premonition, but this...!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's reaching out!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　His right arm, held in place by magic power, is shot toward him as if it is going to attack Usato.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He avoids the arm by flying through the air with his cloak, but the arm, whose joints are composed of magic power, continues to extend and follow him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I thought, "This is not good," and Koga and I tried to break the magic connecting the arm and the main body, but our attacks just slipped through, so there was no point.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Fast ......!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　His left arm reaches out and grabs it as he flies through the air.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Kuku!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Usato!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He swung at me with all his might, knocking me to the ground..,

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Don't lick it!　Nuh!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He hit the ground to offset the impact, and with his left arm still in his grasp, he aimed his free right arm at Kyra's arm and fired a blue-black flash of something like...

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hm?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The blue-black flash popped Kyra's arm off, wounding her, but it was ...... now ...... Rune's magic?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It looked like a pillar of flame. .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You just keep transforming into whatever you want,......!　What a guy ......!!!!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　....... No, I don't think you're the one to say that. .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The next time you're confused in the middle of a battle, Nair, who is on the opposite shoulder from Rune, raises his voice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"The source of his strength is his huge amount of magic power!　Even if you attack it, it will regenerate with its excess magic power, but that's okay!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That's good. ......?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　No, wait, that's what you're saying. ......!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"There's no such thing as unlimited magical power!　The Demon King was like that!　Then, if we force it to use up all the magic it has, it should stop working!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Even in its current state, it must be using a lot of magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then, if the three of us keep attacking it, it will surely run out of magic power someday!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Usato, don't be shy!　Attack it with all your might and keep making it spit out magic!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Aaah!　Let's do it!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You don't have to go easy on him anymore!　I'm going to do it!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At his voice, blue-black flames spread to Usato's cloak and to the silver and black baskets on both of his arms.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As I was stunned to see Usato transformed into his full combat form, Koga, who had also been looking at him with dismay, opened his mouth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No, you can't speak for others either. ......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For once, I agreed with Koga's words.
