Where did Sernya, who had managed to escape from Radhi and the others, go?

　There weren't many options, given her wounded body and the situation she was in.
　Or rather, there was only one.

　To the last trump card, still dancing in the sky.....

◆.

"Ding dong!

　The battle in the air.
　The turbulence that the Wind Devil Beast always wears will blow away anyone who comes close to it with their bodies.
　Moreover, it's impossible for even the Ida's spatial distortions to prevent it from blowing over a wide area with no gaps.

''I never thought I'd have to fight a demonic beast!　Even for me, this guy is too much for me!

　Speaking of demonic beasts, they are essentially not opponents that a single person can stand up to, since they are violent on a disaster scale.
　Even if you just manage to manage it, you can see Ida's uncommon ability.

　The female hero Estelica, who was supposed to be fighting with him, was nowhere to be found.
　Had she already been defeated by a demonic beast and dropped out?

　The wind monster beast, which is said to be controlled by messenger magic, is sharp and ferocious in its movements.
　It was completely different from the Flame Demon Beast Salamandra that Bashvaza had once fearlessly controlled.
　His movements were comparable to those of when he wasn't being controlled.

''It's still best to defeat the messenger sorcerers....... Can we expect those guys to be able to do that...?

　The place was greatly shifted as they repeatedly clashed with each other.
　This battle of the most powerful people had come to a place far outside the original battlefield.

　Hence, it is impossible to know what kind of battle situation Radey and the others are in.
　There is a way to use magic to see them from afar, but there was no time to do it in a one-handed fight against demonic beasts.

　It was that time.
　Between the glaring Ida and the demonic beast, a shadow broke in between them.

　A man so emaciated that it reminded him of a dead tree. However, the person's eyes were red as the flames of hell.

''That guy?!''

　Cernya.
　It's a good idea to have a good time with them.

　It's a good idea to have a good time with them.

"Did they screw up by showing up here?

　Ida, once poisoned, soon realized that Cernya had wounds all over her body.
　Cernya's blood was pouring out of the wound in her chest, and she was on the verge of bleeding to death.
　The wound was too deep to be left alone and needed to be done now.

　Nevertheless, Sernya still levitated with her wind magic and leapt out in front of the wind monster beast's eyes.

''........You've been beaten up pretty badly.''

　Where did the voice say, "Where did that come from?

!

　Ida couldn't hide her confusion at the voice.

"Was that voice........the voice of a wind monster?　You're under a messenger spell and yet...?

　Cernya is floating with wind magic, but she is dizzy and unreliable, perhaps disoriented by the loss of blood.
　It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on a new one.

''I'm sorry.
"As you are an old friend of mine. Well, aren't you done with it?　It's time to put an end to all this frolicking.

　Seeing such an exchange between the monster and the demonic beast, some of us are even more confused.

''What do you mean........?　It doesn't look like you're in the state of casting an emissary magic...?

　A demonic beast affected by magic cannot stay sane.
　I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.
　Trying to control their madness was the gist of the Demonic Beast Service Law.

　But now, people and demons bearing the same wind, as if they were tending to each other....

''Wawa, I'm fed up with it. I'm fed up with the stupidity of being made to follow that guy around at his leisure. It's a pity that people are being made to dance to it. That is why I have decided to hide in this place far away from him and have nothing to do with anyone.

　The Hexenbiest speaks.

"I won't be sent by anyone, and I don't want to get involved in a battle. I don't want to be involved in any battle. But I will do you one favor.
"I gave you a lot of trouble in my lifetime, but even after I die, I will cling to your favor like this. What a pity....

　Cernya, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demon King's Army, was born a lowly commoner in the past hundreds of years ago, who lived in a later age than Drismegian and Ida.

　Hundreds of years ago in the past, he was born a lowly commoner who lived later in life than Drismegian and Ida.

　He rose through the ranks with his magical abilities alone without any backing, and rose to be selected as one of the Four Heavenly Kings.
　But that's why the eyes of the people around him are cold, and words of jealousy and slander can be heard everywhere.

'Sernya is not worthy to be the Fourth Heavenly King.
"I'm just a lowborn citizen...
"Compound attribute"?　It's dirty. I have to resort to such an external law because I don't have any talent.''

　There are two things that are always mentioned when slandering Cernya.
　Being from the common man.
　The use of compound attributes.
　For some reason, in a climate where a single attribute was pure and superior, Cernya was even called a coward.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on in the world.
　The abuse whispered behind the scenes also becomes more and more foul-mouthed.

　Even so, Celnya, who was the Fourth Heavenly King, steadily carried out her mission.

　Because of this, a famous demon family offered to adopt her.
　They wanted her to marry the daughter of that family and eventually take over the family's throne.

　At the time, Celnya was so excited and happy.
　She thought that her efforts were finally recognized.

　Celnya also cherished his wife, even though it was a political marriage.
　He vowed to love her with all his heart and to build a family with her as if they had loved each other from the beginning and married.

　But this is where Cernya's hell began.

　His wife, whom he loved, had been having an illicit affair.
　Moreover, she was having an affair with a colleague of hers at the time, a flowery man with the best bloodlines. He was said to be Sernya's opponent.

　After stepping into the scene of the affair and putting himself in a situation where there was no excuse for his actions, his wife said....

'Because you are filthy.
He's a filthy commoner, and the magic he uses is a filthy mixture. He's so much better than you are. It's noble and pure.

　Those words shattered everything Cernya had built up to that point.

　He immediately crushed and killed his wife and her lover on the spot and left the Demon King's army.

''Birth and magical properties are so important noka!　It's all about power!　Results Da!
"Show it to all the demons, you bastards!　Prove to me that I'm the scariest person in the world, you bastard!

　In fact, his abilities belonged to the highest class of all time, and once Celnya ran amok, there was only hell to pay.

　Celnya, who invented a method of fusing monsters and beasts on her own, found Wind Devil Windra and fused it with her after running around on a wild goose chase.
　Using her overwhelming power, she killed all the Four Heavenly Kings of her era and cut off all the aristocratic families of the demon tribe that were boasting of prosperity at the time.

　Finally, the demon king himself made a move and Cernya was crushed to pieces.
　His body was shattered to pieces and he died, and his soul fell into hell.

'You too, poor man! How could you have had no choice but to spit out your sorrow for not being recognized in the form of great destruction?''

　Based on the memories they shared with each other, the Wind Devil Beast sighed.

''I didn't think that you, a monster beast, would feel sorry for me. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to fight with you.
"The warrior was wondering too. The world is disturbed as he pleases. I was wondering if what I was doing was worth it. It's not a good idea to take advantage of your grandiose lashing out and do things that aren't part of his schedule....

　A smile seemed to appear on the wind dragon's far from human face.

''It was painful. ........But I thought we were defeated and your death would be the end of it. I didn't expect you to come back from hell.''
"My hell is that no one will recognize me. My colleagues in the Demon Lord's Army, my superiors, even my beloved wife won't accept me. But there's one person in particular. I went to hell, but I finally found someone who recognized me...!

　The one who is the Lord of Hell.
　Drismegian, King of the Inferno, the Dristmegian of "Sha Fire".

'The Lord says to me. "The Lord says to me, 'Your magic is great. You're a great magician, use your magic to help me. For the first time I was recognized. For the first time, I'm being asked for!　Show me straight what you intend to do with it, Letta!

　That is the reason why Cernya follows Drismegian.
　He is the only one who serves the King of Hell without interest and with loyalty.

The Lord is almost ready to challenge the Demon King. Until then, I'll have to stop anyone who gets in my way. I still have to work for the Lord!
So you think you'll still fight?
"Wind Devil Windra, merciful dragon of the wind. You've helped me before. But let me help you one more time, just one more time. Let me use your power, Windora.
..........

　After a few moments of silence from a being beyond the human race.

'....Very well.

　The worst decision known to mankind was made.

"I wouldn't have agreed to it if it wasn't for you. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have agreed to it.
Thank you.

　The wind dragon's massive body loses its outline and melts into an indeterminate shape.
　Then it flowed directly into Cernya's body.

''Is that.........?　A demonic beast fusion!''

　Overwhelmed by the genius of the wind pole demon and the demonic beast interweaving, Ida, who had been fumbling with her attack, finally moved with it.
　But it's too late.

　The demon race and demon beasts fused together, a perfect form of harmonious existence.
　The dragonborn appeared.
