His eyes.... are the same as the eyes of those who are not with us...!

　Alessandro knows the people with these eyes.
　No matter how much they threaten you, or try to coerce you, they will not accept it, and they are useless to you. And the common denominator is that they are all thinking of other people.
　There are a few such people in this country.
　Alessandro has never met such a stupid and stubborn people.
　Because these people are always thinking about the people of today. On the other hand, he is thinking about the future of humanity. It is self-evident which of them has the nobler and more far-reaching goal.

(But those who will never, no matter how much we talk about it, try to understand this........ (There is no chance of winning a battle with this little boy who almost single-handedly slaughtered the Dark Night Leopard.

　That's where Yuto paced.
　Alessandro and Lorenza stepped back.

''Eei!　Lorenza!

Yes!

　Alessandro took the vial from his chest and slammed it to the ground.
　A light purple smoke erupted from the broken vial, and it was lodged between Yuto and Alessandro.

''

　Immediately sensing the danger, Yuto covers his own nose with his left arm, which is in a cast, and protects himself from the smoke by cleaving his posture. But in doing so, the smoke spreads and spreads into the forest.
　Then.........the plants and trees touched by the smoke began to wriggle and flail like mollusks with free will.

''This!''

　The branch of the tree is like a string, the grass tries to wrap around you like a snake, and a lot of plants and trees around you attack you like a madman.
　At this time, Alessandro and Lorenza have already turned away from Masato and started running.

''Oh, you, where are you going?''

"Tch, precious secret medicine I've used one of my back hands. ....to the north of the pond!

"!　Now then.....

'Oh, I invite Master Azzi Dahak at the altar north of the pond!　It will only take a few minutes and then this whole place will be scorched earth!　It will reap all the benefits of that dangerous boy!

　The elixir that Alessandro released is the secret medicine that was concocted to raise the life force of the creature to the limit. The elixir was created while he was developing the elixir with his own hands.
　However, Alessandro didn't see the elixir being perfected, and instead succeeded in brewing the miasma into the elixir.
　Creatures that come into contact with the elixir lose their sanity and turn into demons that hate life itself instead of gaining abilities that surpass their race.
　Originally, Alessandro saved this as a countermeasure against hostile super-advanced abilities.
　Instead of using it on these plants, he said it was better to use it on the Dark Night's leopards and others who had high fighting power from the beginning.
　However, right now, they found themselves in front of an enemy with that super-high combat power, and there were no pieces around. Therefore, they had no choice but to use it on this occasion.

''You unearned, cocky little bastard!　

　While saying so, a roaring sound rang out behind the Alessandro's who were moving desperately.
　You can find a lot of people who have been in the market for a new product or service.

''When you let them go ... don't think ...



　Mizuho and Marion were alerted to the area in the dark castle of the Water Margin, which was on the verge of collapse.

''So Yuuto went ahead by himself?''

He said he wanted to capture the person called the Count carefully and surely.

''Hmm........well, that's probably true. We can only trust Yuto's judgment there. Those recognition slips, they seem to be a very mysterious bunch. If it comes down to a meatball fight, there aren't many opponents who can beat you. I'd like to beat him with my own hands too, but.......

''I feel the same way.......but Masato-san was angry for us too. And for Shihira-san and the others as well..... That's why I decided to leave it to him.

Well ... you know. He's ... he's always like that.

Really.

　They smiled sighingly as they looked at each other, though there was some concern.



　Alessandro kept running frantically.
　The altar of the target he was now heading towards was just around the corner.

'We're almost there!　Lorenza.

Yes.....uu!

What's going on?

That little bastard's on his way!

"What, do you think we've already made it through?　What a little boy!

　After passing through the dense trees, an altar that looks like a large hollowed out rock emerges. The altar is surrounded by a dozen stone pillars, each about two meters high, standing on a rock table large enough to hold a single person.

'Yes!　Lorenza, open the gate now!　Get ready....

　Breathing roughly, Alessandro put his hand on the altar and took out a lock of Marion's golden hair.

'It's over here ... maturely redeem yourself.

!

　I turned around with a huff and saw a boy standing there who was emitting a killing intent.

''You!　Come on!　I'll take my time here!

Please!

　Alessandro hurriedly placed the offering, a hair, in the center of the altar and began to chant some kind of spell, concocting his magic power.

(Soon!　(Soon the gate will open!)

　The altar began to emit a weak light the stone pillars surrounding it seemed to vibrate and resonate with each other in tandem with it.

'Alright!　All that's left is ... to invite you in!

　Alessandro turns his body to Yuto.
　If you look, you can see that Yuto is holding the posture in his right hand without doing anything with Lorenza in front of him.

''Kukku, hahaha!　Looks like you're too late, kid!　Lady Azzi Dahak is coming!　You and the girls are done!　It was a mistake to lick and bring that little blonde girl in!　Originally we were going to take a little more time, but you've driven us into a corner, and that was your mistake!　Your overzealousness has resulted in the super demon's descent being hastened!

　In response, Yuto responds without changing his Noh mask-like expression.

The first thing you need to do is to call me. I'm sure you'll be able to call that Azi Dahak. If you can call him, that is.''

　Alessandro trembled with anger at that condescending attitude of Yuto.

''You ... ignorant, stupid little bastard!

'Let's call you. Let's bring this ignorant little boy to justice and watch the world change!

　Alessandro smiled and nodded widely at Lorenza's words.

'Come on!　Come in!　Lady Aziz Dahak!　There's also a little girl here who could kill this little boy and tie you to this world!

　Alessandro shouted, and every drop of magic from his body was injected into the altar.
　The altar's light level increased and the stone pillars rattled and vibrated loudly.
　Then a jet-black circle appeared on the surface of the water of the pond spreading to the south of the altar. The surface of the water within the circle changed color from blue to crimson, spreading its area at high speed.

''Hahaha.......Hahaha!　Come on!　It's coming!

'Oh, we'll finally meet again!　Master Azzi Dahak!

　With their pupils open and a thin layer of tears on their faces, Alessandro and Lorenza looked ecstatic, as if they were having the best time of their lives.
　Yuto is still staring at this situation at this time as well.
　

''.........!

　Alessandro once again spread his hands back to the heavens.
　However, the jet-black circle that was supposed to be the gate to the other world clearly began to shrink, and when it finally reduced to a small circle of a few centimeters......it disappeared.

''........What is it, Count?''

　Alessandro reacts with a jolt to Yuto's low, cold question.

''Oh, you...!

'Nonsense!　Why?!

You failed?

'No way!　I did what the man said!　There must be nothing wrong with that!

Is that it?　So, let's start paying for all the bad things you've done.

　Yuto finally makes his move.
　

''Why..........why?　Why is this happening?　Did that man smoke?

(...Your Highness?

　At those words, Yuto moved his eyebrows slightly.
　Unable to grasp the current situation, Alessandro and Lorenza began to shake their bodies in front of the approaching Sendo-user boy.

''Shall I teach you guys a lesson in the underworld?　Why hasn't Azzi Dahak shown up?

"....!　What?!

'I'll tell you what......... Azzi Dahak doesn't show up.........

　Alessandro and Lorenza slowly move backwards in front of Yuto, who is slowly walking forward.



!

　Alessandro and the others lost their voices at the unbelievable fact that Yuto told them, and their backs touched the stone pillar.
　For a moment, Yuto's eyes turn to stare into the distance.

''I'm the one who's defeating them. In a place named Demon World........''

　

　

''What, what........?

'So there's no way he's going to show up. When did you guys know Azzi Dahak?　Wasn't it a long time ago?

Yeah, yeah, I'm supposed to believe that kind of nonsense...

I don't give a d*mn if you guys believe it or not. I just didn't expect to hear that unpleasant name over here either.

This is...?

Enough, it's over. You will take your revenge here for all the people who lost their lives and hope through you. I'm just the contractor.

　Alessandro and Lorenza sat down, leaning their backs against the pillars.
　Yuto stood in front of Alessandro and Lorenza, who lost their will to fight.
　Alessandro and Lorenza looked up and met the miliary gaze of the boy's skin as he looked down at them.

'Not yet!　I won't die here!　Lorenza!


　Alessandro and Lorenza hurriedly took out a small vial containing a light purple liquid and took the lid off with an unconscious, trembling hand.
　It was the unfinished elixir of miasma mixed with miasma that Alessandro had created that he had thrown at Yuto earlier.
　The two swallowed it in one gulp.

''Guaaaah!''

Goooooo!

　They both groaned in agony as they suffered in agony.
　Then their bodies gradually transformed.
　Their muscles rose and their clothes ripped, and their bodies seemed to be remade into demons.

''I'm going to kill you, kid!　Gwababaaba!

''At the end of the day, you guys are the most foolish people in the world. In the first place, you are the most foolish of all the rest of us, throwing yourselves away in your half-demon bodies to escape. In the end, all you did was act out of self-pity. Stepping on people without a care in the world!

　Yuto holds up his posture.

''Have you guys already ... forgotten that you were cursed as me!　At least redeem yourself while there's still a human body left!　There's a whole bunch of people waiting for you guys to play with them in hell!

　Yujin's posture has been pulled out and....

　And the two half-demonized lumps of flesh remained in place.......
