Nuh-uh!

　Wyvern's head shell was solid. Even after receiving Goubayashi's fist, which was clothed in fighting spirit, only a few cracks were still visible. The shell on the back is also only a fraction of the area blown away by Kyousuke's bursting punch. First we need to break through that nasty armor.

''Is everyone else going to be okay against something that hard?''
The power of Saruwatari can send an impact into the enemy's interior.

　Alongside Kyousuke, with his fists at the ready, Goubayashi said.

'No matter how robust his armour is, it's meaningless to him. Okumura, on the contrary, specializes his abilities in arm strength and weight. Besides.''

　Goubayashi glanced and turned his gaze to Kyousuke.

''Even if my powers don't work, somehow, I'll manage to screw the enemy over. I think I've trained that well. And that's true for you and me, too.
It's a tough sell.
Not as much as you might expect from me.

　Wyvern's blood-colored twin eyes glinted and threatened us. Kyousuke removed his own right arm and threw it into the dimension case. Instead, the arm bone that came out was connected to the vacant right arm.

''........Utsurugi, what is that?''
'It's an arm to live up to expectations. Goubayash, I'll take care of that guy's shell.
Yes.

　Goubayashi ran at once towards Wyvern. The wyvern flapped its wings and tried to escape into the air, but a leap of fighting energy hit its head like a cannonball. He lost his balance in the air from the impact, and the flying dragon's huge body fell unceremoniously.
　From the battered posture, Goubayasi pressed down hard on Wyvern's head with both hands. Wyvern's upper and lower jaws were grabbed tightly and held down by his powerful arms, and he was unable to shake it off even if he made his whole body strong. There, Kyousuke's strike, aimed at it, was released again towards its head.

''Diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

　A vial was clutched in his fist, which had been smashed between his eyes. The bottle cracked easily, splattering the chemicals that filled it. It was a liquid that reacted and dissolved in robust biological parts such as bones and shells. It was sold in this city as something that could be used to weaken demons by tying them to arrows. Naturally it dissolved Kyousuke's bones, but at the same time, it also affected Wyvern's head shell.
　A blow that popped the whole arm off. Literally a discarded, disposable fist. It was a bizarre move by Kyousuke Soraki, who had tied a prop to each of his arms. Immediately after the right fist is blown off, new parts fly out of the dimension case he carried on his back and are connected to Kyousuke's arm. Kyousuke slams his left fist into it, furthermore. That fist, with the spell tucked into it, successfully shattered the shell of Wyvern's face, which had been softened by the chemicals.

''Gaaaaah!

　The depressed flying dragon screamed and slumped. But the solid shell protecting its head was shattered. Kyousuke also disguised his arms and "wrapped" them around Wyvern's neck.

　It's a 10-meter-long serpent bone. It's also a very good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. If the wyvern were to lose control, it would easily break into pieces. But Goubayashi instantly understood Kyousuke's intentions. He lets go of his arms and raises one leg like a Masakari.

　Both of Goubayasi's legs stretched out in a tight line.

''Hmph!

　The golden fighting spirit of the blow is swung down like a hammer. The kakato dug into the head of the wyvern, which had lost its armor, and then crushed its bones. The flying dragon's head explodes, sending pieces of flesh flying. Eventually, the headless giant body slowly fell down.

''One destroyed, but........''

　Goubayashi turned around, catching his breath.
　Kyousuke also replaced both arms with his original ones again. He gripped and opened them repeatedly, as if checking the connection.

　We could see numerous wyverns released into the city, gathering towards us. I have to say, it's good to deal with each and every one of them, but it's somewhat hard to deal with so many individuals at the same time.
　I have to say, though.

It's a bit of a challenge," he said.
Yeah, I've got something to cheer you up.

　As Kyousuke mutters in a daze, Goubayashi agrees with his arms crossed.

　Taking such an attitude in front of a crowd of enemies would normally be a mere suicide. But Kyousuke had no choice but to take such an attitude. A situation that simply forced him to marvel before fear and shuddering, or even rapture and joy.
　A situation that would force him to open his mouth, like a fool.
　A situation that makes even every threat feel dwarfed.

　Probably, even if that nameless person had come to help him here, he wouldn't have given Kyousuke such a sense of surprise and relief.

　Kyousuke and the others could see various shadows gathering from many directions as if they were chasing that group of flying dragons.

''Sorry Dragon-kuns, you can't miss a stolen base!

　Saruwatari Futa (Hanuman) flies with the wind.

'O you evil dragons who are drowning in blood and have lost sight of your pride. Bear the wrath of Harao.

　Masaki Harao (Pharaoh) is slumped over the roots of a huge plant that is cracking the ground.

'Moo, Harao-kun!　Stop riding the roots of Ultimate Roger #3!

　Hanazono Hana (Alraune), who is overgrowing that plant (tomatoes), looked at Harao with reproach.

'Whoa, it's Utsurugi-kun and Goubayashi-kun!　Hey!

　Next to the Hanazono, Aya Sugiura (Scylla) is waving her hands wide.

　Those who try to follow the flock of wyverns, flying through the sky, or leaping over buildings, or using the earth itself as their own footing, are no less vigorous. Impregnated with a tremendous wind, they surround the flying dragons.
　Not to be outdone by the wyverns that were gathering from all over the city, the two-year, four-grade monster army was gathering one after another. Just as Goubayashi had said, they had become much more robust after not seeing them for a while.

''Kyousuke-kun!

　A familiar voice came, and Kyousuke turned around in a huff.

'You're okay, Rin!
'I didn't let Himemizu hurt you at all. Don't worry!
Whoa.

　Kyousuke flinched involuntarily. There, besides Rin, was the beastly Inugami and the head of Megumi Kenzaki, with her hair in the mouth of the Inugami.

'Kenzaki, have you finally started to forget about the body?
'There's another way to say hello!　The body will be here as soon as we get rid of the extra stranding!

　As if the talking raw head was so depressing, Inugami threw away Kenzaki's head as it was. Leaving a strange scream of 'kupe', Kenzaki's head fell silent.

''You all came. Amazing.........''

　Rin muttered softly as she saw her classmates rallying from all sides of the city.
　Before long, Lesvon and Rain jumped out of the alleyway in the street, as if in a panic.

''Utsurogi!　
"M

　Goubayasi bowed quietly to the Lesbians, who suddenly fell off their feet when they saw him.

''Oh, so Lesbons are safe.
"Not safe!　I was working on housing the injured in the east, and suddenly it was an army of monsters!　You can't give me a heart attack!　I thought I was going to die this time, you know!
"I was in the north, ready to retreat, when suddenly that Hanuman...

　Apparently so confused. Understandably, this reaction was somehow nostalgic to Kyousuke.



　　　◇ ◇ ◇



　I rewind time a bit.

　A swarm of wyverns crashed through the castle walls and filled the sky. Normally, there are a large number of flying dragons that should be dealt with by skilled adventurers in a clique, even advanced and Gold Rankers. Not only that, their individual behavior was clearly abnormal compared to normal individuals, which added to the confusion on the scene.
　Once confused, it was difficult to collect them. After a few casualties, they were finally able to take out one of them. More manpower is being allocated to carry the seriously injured adventurers to the association headquarters.

　As soon as they allow the invasion into the city, the defense has failed. The remaining forces will be directed to defeating the wyvern that has invaded the city. A group of adventurers, including Rain, Mizashiki, and Kageno, headed to the location of the individuals not far from the association's headquarters in the north.

　But...

'Ooohhhhhhhh!

　A white wind-covered lightbulb smashed toward Wyvern, who rose high in the sky. It cut through the sky, and a large, bent-up cudgel struck the flying dragon's neck.
　Some of Wyvern's scales, which were covered by a solid shell, burst off. But it was far from a fatal blow. The wyvern opened its great jaws to fight off its petulant antagonist and followed the white shadow. The shadow fluttered and dodged while clad in wind, then snapped its cudgel again, this time striking the flying dragon's head.

''Way to go, Dragon-kun!　But it's not enough to capture this image of me!
Gasp!

　At the white shadow's provocation, Wyvern spits out a fireball (breath). However, as soon as the shadow smiled with a 'poof', he held the cudgel in both hands in order and cleaved it wide to the side.

''A rough ball aimed at a deadly pitcher's ball would suit a painful pitcher's return!

　In the end, the Yokonagi cudgel caught the fireball beautifully and fired back at Wyvern.
　Although what they are saying may be almost meaningless, their shadows were clearly fighting a "good fight" against the wyvern that overwhelmed several Gold Rankers. Of course, there was only one Wyvern. But even so, it is a formidable fighting ability.

"What the hell, that guy........

　Rain muttered in dismay as he looked at the white shadow that was hitting Wyvern while repeating a brilliant hit-and-away.
　A beastman covered in white fur. The twin eyes that are filled with strong will. Only a small percentage of the adventurers who were familiar with demons understood that it was Hanuman, a rare spirit beast that was supposed to live only from the Hananarkan plains to the glowering plateau.

　At the time the adventurers rushed over, the spirit beast was already fighting the wyvern. The wind swirled around Hanuman, and there was a cloud-like foothold at his feet as he flew through the sky at will.

''You guys!''

　Hanuman clenched his fists, looked down at the stunned adventurers and said.

''Let me take care of this place and get the hell out of here!
I'm going...

　It was Gozashiki Do-suke who called out, interrupting one of the adventurers who was about to say, "Saruwatari-kun!

''Saruwatari-kun!''
'Oh, that voice is the throne room!　There you are!

　Salwatari, Hanuman called out, and Hanuman responded with a happy reply to Goshiki's voice.
　There was no time for Rain to ask if he knew him. The okappa-headed boy rushed forward with the Nurikabe he was leading. Wyvern's blood-colored eyes, which were different from normal individuals, gyrated, and he spat out a fireball at the Gozashiki running on the ground.

''I won't let you!

　As soon as Kabeno shouted, the wall rose to split the ground. The wall shielded Gozashiki from the fireball and then shattered as it was. As Kabeno's body floats up so that it is parallel to the ground, Ozashiki leaps onto her body and runs straight up into the sky.

'Ozashiki, Kabeno!　That guy!
I'm on your side!

　When Rain belatedly shouted, Gozaji turned around and replied.

''From the looks of it, it looks like you've mastered a new power!　Growth is youth!
Yeah, yeah, well, yeah.

　It was Gozashiki who gave a vague reply in front of a strangely excited Hanuman.

''Well, let's see. Me and Kabeano-san's abilities are suited for assisting.
I'm on it!　I never thought I'd see the day when I'd be standing on the same field as you guys, overcoming the barriers between the baseball and soccer teams!
It's empty, but...

　Ozashiki let out a dumbfounded voice as he lowered his hand to the ground troops. In response, several adventurers with a taste for magic began chanting at once. The white army personnel, including Rain, take cover for the sorcerers who are defenseless from Wyvern's attack.

　Hanuman, in his exuberant tension, was rallying the wind that clothed his entire body into his own hands.

"Fighting together is also youth!　It's a play ball, Goshiki!
I wish I could say "kick off. Hey, Mr. Kabeano.
I don't know.

　Wallno calmly created a wall (barrier) to play the wyvern's fireball while acting as a flyboard. Meanwhile, Goshiki also quietly closed both eyes and raised his right arm to Hanuman. Some kind of light seemed to gather around the white spirit beast.

''Absolute lucky zone........!
Mmm, I think I'm starting to feel better!

　The wind changed into a sphere in Hanuman's palm.

'I'm about to make the best pitch I've ever made, too!　I'm going to show you my new magic ball, the blaster shake, after I awakened in Phase 2 of the Vibration Control!

　That guy can't fight in silence, Rain thought.



　It was around the time Sarutoyo joined up with Gozashiki and the others near the northern ramparts.

''Say!''

　The black armor (pawn) evades the sword that was swung by the side-napper, just in time to avoid the black armor (pawn). The headless knight (Dullahan) regrasped the hilt with both hands and faced the pawn again.

''Are you safe? Himemizu, Inugami.''
Oh, oh....Tsurugin....

　The one who hurriedly attacked Himemizu Rin and Inugami Hibiki as they hurried back to the city of Zelneus was, again, or should I say, what a pawn of the blood race. It's getting to the point where I'm getting sick of it by now, but it's not someone I can shake off. Rin and Inugami alone are not a worthy opponent.
　That's when the headless member of the 2nd year class 4, Kenzaki Megumi, burst in.
　That alone was a surprise, but there was one more thing that should have been a surprise.

　Kenzaki was fighting an even match against a pawn.

'Oops, keep my head in your hands before I forget. It won't come true if I drop it.

　Removing his head, which was tied in a ponytail around his waist, Kenzaki released it at Rin. When Rin caught it dangerously, the headless windbagger pointed his sword at the pawn once again.

'You've got a lot to do, attacking a city on purpose. What do you want? Are you still continuing to imitate the kidnappers?''
Huh....

　The pawn raised one hand as he took a step or two back. Then Wyvern, who had been conducting a destructive activity a little distance away, turned his head to me, leaning his head back.

''Tsurugin!''

　Rin lets out a shout. A wyvern with its wings spread out flies up and glides towards Kenzaki.
　All the while, the cutting edge of Kenzaki's stance did not blur as it was pointed at the pawn. Without giving any warning to the gliding wyvern, it inch by inch towards the pawn.

　When the gliding wyvern's claws were extended towards Kenzaki, the house in the immediate vicinity was blown away with a roaring sound.

''Dosukoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

　The wyvern was slammed to the ground by a rain of flying debris from the side. Neither the debris nor the huge body of the wyvern was snatched away by Kenzaki, who was walking with ease. Two shadows emerge from the scattered sand and pebbles.

''Oh!''

　Rin, however, shouted in delight at the appearance of the orc and the oga, two races that awe people and symbolize ruthless violence. The Inugami didn't raise his voice, as he had become a beast.

''Okumura-kun!　Zekou-kun!
It's great to see you, Debbie, Himesuis.
...!

　Okumura threw a short word and Zekou gave a thumbs up. Zekou's mentality was also much closer to that of a human.
　The two boasted of their monstrous strength, and together they jumped at Wyvern, who was struggling against the rain of debris as they greeted him. Zekou, attached to the struggling wyvern's arm, twisted its wingbone and snapped it backwards. With a bekiri, Wyvern lets out an inarticulate scream.

　The pawn finally realizes it is inferior and spreads its wings to escape, but as if waiting for an opening, Kenzaki slashes at it at once. Pawn tries to return fire with a black bolt of lightning on his arm, but Kenzaki's stepping in slightly outweighs it.
　The slash was shallow, but it cut through the black armor with ease. Sparks flew, and the cutting edge slightly gouged the pawn's arm.

"I'm not the one who's been through all the hardships.

　Kenzaki shouted and swung his sword further to give chase.

''Inugami, take Himemizu and hurry!
What?
'The place of the oxen!　Goubayas are looking for you!　Now join us!

　Inugami poked Rin with the tip of his nose, and Rin pulled her mind together and nodded widely with her entire body.
　Of course, the accumulation of talk can be done later. I'll leave it to Kenzaki here. It wasn't just us who had become stronger, nothing else. The classmates who rushed to the predicament were strong and reliable. Kenzaki Megumi had already grown to the point where she was able to fight against the Blood Clan all by herself.

　In the eastern part of the city, large plants were beginning to grow neatly. Perhaps they weren't the only ones who had rushed in.

'That's Sugiura and the other fatties.

　Okumura, who was engaged in a fierce meat fight with Wyvern, said. He held the huge body by the neck and held it down with his full weight. No matter how hard Wyvern struggled, Okumura's hold wouldn't let go. In the meantime, Zekou had snapped another wing, completely crushing Wyvern's means of flight.

"'Nameless' told me, so I don't know for sure, Fatty,"
We're sending mushroom hats over there. You go to the mortuary!

　Okumura and Kenzaki said this to each other in succession.

''Yes!

　As Rin heaved into Inugami's body, Inugami kicked the earth and ran out quickly.
　Then, Kenzaki's head, which Rin was still holding, said this.

''I can roughly sense Goubayashi's ki. I'll show you the way!
'What?　Tsurugin, what about your body!
Don't worry!　One pawn is enough for a body.........
"Tsurugin!

　Kenzaki's eyes widened for a moment and showed a blue face, but he quickly regained his spare smile.

''I just let my guard down a bit!　Inugami, turn right at the next corner!

　Inugami turned his petulant gaze slightly on Kenzaki, but he didn't complain as he ran through the passage.



　Near the west wall, by the time Rin and Inugami had joined Kenzaki's head and headed for Kyousuke and the others, Lesvon Bark was in serious trouble at the east wall.

''Whoa, whoa!

　A huge object suddenly broke through the wall and swelled up. For a moment Lesbon mistook it for a sandworm of some sort, but it was not. It was a tremendous plant root.
　What on earth was going on? Could it be that Wyvern was not the only one who had attacked this city? Lesvon put his hand on the wall and looked up to see a small girl standing among the branches and leaves, still dangling from a tremendously large, red fruit. That one looked a lot like a human, but it wasn't human. She was an arraune, a plant-type monster that lived in the forests all over the continent.

　Alraune has the power to assist in the growth of plants, but I've never heard of it growing such huge plants and trees in an instant. And by the looks of it, Alraune wasn't the only demon there.
　Next to it was Scylla, which for some reason was supposed to be a marine monster. This also adds to Lesbons' confusion. Alraune and Scylla. It's an unlikely pairing in nature. Arraune lives in the forest and Scylla lives in the sea. And at the end of the roots that were rising up, another demon was standing there.

"Harao-kun, don't get on the roots!

　Alraune shouts loudly. Glancing over, Lesbon's gaze crosses with the demon on its roots.

　Pharaoh. A high-ranking monster of the Mummy, inhabiting the Desert of Sorrows. It is a demon feared to be a formidable foe among the death royalty (undead) that uses tremendous divine power and spellcraft. Through the golden mask, Pharaoh, who had exchanged glances with Lesbon, looked forward, not particularly paying attention to him.

''To Alraune, to Scylla.......even Pharaoh.......!

　Forests, seas and deserts. They are demons who have no contact with each other in the sphere of life. This kind of symbiotic relationship was impossible. Could it be that someone has gathered up the king's pieces and has a variety of demons under their command to revolt against the humans?　Like the demon king's army passed down in fairy tales. This is the mythical war all over again!

　No, wait.

　Lesvon thought as he held his dizzy head down.

　He felt as if he had only recently seen a group of demons with no contact with such a living area.

''Sugiura, are there really Utsurugi and the others here?
The city is being attacked by some kind of dragon, but are they okay...?
I mean, that's what your mum says, but...

　Utsurugi. Lesbon huffed as Gilman and Mermaid spoke over the leaves.

　That's right, Utsurogi. The demon army that was with that guy was also, to be frank, a group that seemed to have mixed up their living areas. Even so, it wasn't too strange, since they were all ayakashi, whose ecology was largely unknown, and skeletons and slimes that lived universally everywhere, so it didn't feel too strange.

　Are these guys all members of the Uzurogi?

　Just as he was taken away by the Empire and the bloodline, he was joined by a group of stragglers. That, in itself, must be a wonderful thing. Congratulations, Utsurogi.
　However, I think you're too knotty. This is really the Demon King's Army.

''Hanazono, there's a dragon in front of us!
Harao-kun, Uozumi-kun, Masuyo-chan, please!

　The ivy smashed through the ground and grew with a bang, tangling a wyvern. Seeing this, Pharaoh, Gilman, and Mermaid took a stance.
　Are these guys also members of the Utsurugi? Come to think of it, he had heard that there were about forty of their friends in total.

　As an adventurer, Lesbon thought he was trying to maintain a flexible mindset that didn't stick to stereotypes, but the fear of the skeleton named Soraki Kyousuke and the demons who claimed to be his companions made him feel a headache, as expected.



　　　◇ ◇ ◇



'Whoa!　Roar, a thousand magic balls!

　The spheres of wind created by Sarutoyo were thrown out in countless numbers with great force. It ate through the atmosphere and slammed into the shells of the wyverns. The minute vibrational waves formed around the wind transmitted the impact to the interior. The muscle fibers that made up the wyvern's body were torn from the inside out.

'Alright, go!　Ultimate Roger III!

　As Hanazono raises his hand, a giant ivy grows out of the ground again and attacks the wyvern's flock.
　The giant tomato, named Ultimate Roger III, shakes its entire body and impedes the wyvern's flight.

'I don't want you to forget about me either!　Don't eat it!

　With a loud shake of his head, the chemicals secreted in his body flew into the air on the spores. Taking advantage of the air currents manipulated by Sarutoyo, the spores hit the group of flying dragons directly. Inhaling the mushroom haze spores that caused a great deal of damage to the nervous system, the wyvern swarm lost its equilibrium one by one.

　When this happens, it's now ours. Goubayashi's decisive men, such as Harao, rushed to the crowd of wyverns that had lost their strength.
　The Goubayasi forcefully cracks the strong shell of the wyvern. Harao uses his divine power to smash it from the inside.

　And here, Kyousuke and Rin joined in further.

''Extreme blows!

　The moment he slammed his fist into it, the tip of it scraped away from his arm. The scraped off arm invaded Wyvern's body and ate through his flesh from the inside. Even though he's been on a losing streak of late, he can't afford to fall behind his foes at this level, killing one of them instantly and turning around to strike another blow, an Extreme Blower.

　The wyvern was already being cleared out of the way.

　It wasn't just this main street, the adventurers were also crushing the remaining individuals in various parts of the city, one by one. Although the damage to the city is heavy (although it feels like it's half the fault of the flower garden), the commotion is somehow being contained, somehow.

'Looks like it's over,'

　Kenzaki said, holding his own neck with his body, which had come back before he knew it. Okumura and Zekou are there too.

''In the end, I wonder if this is another blood family affair.

　 Rin complied.

''Isn't it?　The pawns are coming out.
If so, what's the point of it all?

　They all groaned, but of course no answer was forthcoming. Sugiura, on the leaves of Ultimate Roger III, said there, 'Well, well, well.

"Well, let's just say that everyone here is safe, so let's see each other again for now. I'd like to sit down and talk to you for a while.

　The classmates nodded one by one, saying that, too, there was a story to pile up. Sugiura and the others came from the east and Goubayashi and the others from the west, which meant that there were probably three groups gathered here. It would take a lot of time to exchange and organize information.

　And I was just about to get the story together.

'No, not yet,'

　Kyousuke looked at the wyverns lying in large numbers on Main Street and said.

''Their attack isn't over yet. They even went out of their way to turn the flying dragons into a blood clan to attack the city. It's a bit weird to just leave it like this.

　Until now, we have been confronting the blood race by shaking off the fires that have been kindled. There was no reason for us to actively engage in battle with them. But when things have progressed to this point, it's a different story.
　The wyvern has gathered with Kyousuke and Goubayashi. Straightforwardly speaking, the reason why they attacked this city was because of Kyousuke and the others. And since that purpose has not been fulfilled, there is a possibility that another force will attack this city again.

　Besides, if the whole class were to return with the whole class, these guys would be the opponents that would have to be settled one day.

　If the pawns are here, then one of their strongholds should be in the vicinity. If that's the case, we need to cut off the source before this city is attacked again. Unless we do that, we'll just repeat the process of defeating the enemies that keep attacking us again and again.

''Goubayasi, I told you. I'm going to defeat the bloodline. I will defeat them all.
Hmm.

　Goubayashi nodded, keeping his arms crossed.

'Come to think of it, we've never been attacked by those guys all the time, and we've never gone out to hit them. 'No?'
Hmm.

　Goubayashi nodded again.
　Already, everyone must have begun to understand what Kyousuke was trying to say. Everyone in the place, more than 10 demons, suddenly began to buzz. But even among them, Goubayashi quietly closed his eyes with his arms crossed, as if accepting the proposal.

''There's an opponent that me and Rin can't win on our own. I need everyone's help.

　This fight is not going to end if you are being beaten up forever. I'm going to show you that we can hit you.
　We are not just pawns in a battle. We are more than just pawns in a battle.

　We must show the empire and the blood race that we are resolute. Kyousuke had been thinking about it for a long time.

'They were truly a terrible enemy. I know I'm putting everyone in danger. But I still say it. I need everyone's help. I'm weak, I step on land mines without understanding people's minds, and I'm not a funny person who can't make a great joke, but if you're willing to do that, I want you to help me. I want you to fight with me. That's selfishness on my part. But I don't want to have been beaten to death, had my friends killed and taken away, and I don't want to keep doing that for years to come.

　Kyousuke looks at everyone who has gone quiet.

"We'll take out one of their bases. It's our first counterattack.
