The sixth monster that suddenly appeared.

　No, that one - that one was not a monster.

　He looks and feels exactly the same as the other five, but the amount of magic he contains is on a par with the trash.

　But....

Good evening, body, good evening.
I've been waiting for you.
I did it like I said I would, except for those bastards.

　For some reason, the five bakeries are low to the ground against the new guy.

　I don't know what that means.

　But it might be a chance.
　I'll give it a little hope.

　To save Master Citry.

Well, I'll tell you what I have to do.

Hmm, what?

　I spoke to the sixth man, and he responded to my words.

I've just been told that they want to tame me. It's true that they interfered with my magic, but I would never be tamed by their level of power.

Mmm-hmm, so?

You're their master, aren't you?　You want to fight me?　If you get me to admit defeat, I'll accept Tame.

What if I lose?

In that case, I'll still accept Tame. Instead, I'm going to need you to let this gentleman go.

''Zo, Chief, what are you talking about!

　Citry-sama tried to make a noise, but I controlled it with my gaze.

'Why do you accept Tame even if you can beat me?　If you can beat me, why don't you just run away with the kid?

I'm not so foolish that I don't understand the power of the enemy as to think that even if I defeat you, I can defeat the five remaining monsters.

Well, I know I can win on my own.

I think it's possible. At the very least, if you guys want to tame me, you'll have to fight me. If you don't accept my offer, I won't accept the tame, even if it kills me.

　What do you think?

Okay, all right. We'll fight.
"...ahh!

　We have a chance.

Well, thank you, Your Majesty, for taking me up on my offer. Thank you for taking me up on my offer.

Because even if I can't get you to admit defeat, you're still going to be my friend, right?　The pretty lady there seems to be strong, but as a floor boss I wanted a demon like you, a demon that would be willing to do anything for me.

　Huh, floor boss?

　I don't know what he's talking about.

　But I've got a chance to let Master Citry go. It didn't matter.

　He stood up and faced the sixth man.

'By the way, aren't you worried that if I lose, you might not let the boy go?

''That's all I can do but trust you. Besides ... this is the first time I've ever said something like this to a human being, but I can sense a hint of warrior in you. You must not be the kind of man who goes back on his word.

　It doesn't seem very strong, but for some reason, in front of this guy, I felt that it wasn't a good idea to lie to him.

　So, I'm going to tell you my true feelings.

Okay, thanks. Then I'll make you a promise. As long as you don't admit defeat, I'm not gonna hurt that girl. And you're just gonna have to hold up your end of the bargain.

Hey.
Riley!
You hang in there, body.
He's really strong. I want you to be careful.
The arms. They're getting bigger.

　Five of the monsters untied the enclosure between me and Lord Citry and gathered in one place.

　Of course, I won't try to escape.

　I'm going to defeat this thing and free Sitry-sama!

By the way, I'm Hurt. Halt-Elnor.

I'm sorry, but I don't have a name to tell you.

　Even though they can speak a human language, we demons don't have names to identify individuals.

　The exception is the dragon race.
　They are a drunken race that imitates humans.

Hmmm, it's inconvenient not to have a name. Okay, when I win, I'll give you a name, okay?

Do what you want.

　I don't care what his name is.
　Other than beating this guy and letting Citry-sama escape, it's a trivial matter.


''Oh, and by the way, can I use my weapon?''

Of course I don't mind.

　By the looks of it, Halt was bare handed.

　My skin is impervious to even the blades of the Orihalcon. It doesn't matter what kind of weapon they use.

　Are you planning to use the stick that the monster that fought me just now was holding?

　The thing was quite painful, but not unbearable.

　While I was thinking about this, Hurt made a hole in the sky.

　This guy....is he a hero?

　I had seen Hurt's actions before.

　The brave man I fought in the past made a hole in space just like Hurt, and took out various weapons from it and attacked me.

　Well, all of those weapons did not hurt me at all.

　So there was no need to be afraid of whatever weapons came out.


　Hurt pulled his hand out of space.

　A huge, Hurt-sized sword appeared.

　The moment my eyes caught sight of it...


　My arms, body, legs and head were chopped into pieces without allowing any resistance.


"........ghahaha!

　I fell to my knees.

　Oh, that's strange........

　I was chopped into pieces now...

　And my body is fine.

　What the hell is going on?

　I tried to look up to see what was going on, but...


　I couldn't look ahead.

　My instincts as a demon are telling me not to raise my head.

　My body is trembling in small increments.

　This, this is........fear?

　You idiot!

　Do you think I'm afraid of that sword?

　...no, no.

　It's not a sword.

　My instinct was to hold the sword in my hand and my instinct was to sound the alarm with all my might.

　I can't win.

　It's not in the dimension of taking a shot for Citry-sama or anything like that.

　The moment I stood up, the vision I was shown earlier came true.

　I'm not allowed to resist at all and my body is cut into pieces.

　This isn't a prediction or a hunch.


　This is the future that has been confirmed.


"Citry-sama I'm sorry, too.

What's going on, Chief?　What is the matter with you?

　As I kneeled in front of Hurt, Citry-sama is concerned about me.

　Even though she was bowing to the human race, there was no anger in her voice.

　She is genuinely concerned about me.

　I'm sure Sitri-sama won't blame me for the actions I'm about to take.

　It torments me.

　I know that.

　But that doesn't stop me from doing what I'm doing.


"Master Halt, I do not give in to the Tame.

　I was a fool.

　I didn't understand the power of Master Hurt standing in front of me, and I didn't understand anything.
