In the previous battle, Tsukuyomi tried to get the Dark Lord to attack me.
　However, the Dark Lord looked puzzled and stopped moving.

　That was because of the Purgatory Demon King's Sword (Lardis).

　I learned it from our former king Yulisha.

　The sword was handed down from the first Demon King (Wölfer) to the previous Demon Kings.
　It's a symbol of a demon king and has the power to subdue all demon armies.

　Yes, 'All Demon Armies'.
　It seems that a person with a strong will like Zegart can repel the effects of the sword, but it was effective against the "Dark Lord" who was nothing more than a purely magical weapon.

　In short, this means that the priority of the Dark Lord's order is mine, the owner of the Purgatory Demon Sword, is the priority of his order.
　That's why the Dark Lord is now following my orders and not those of Zegert and the others, and attacking them.

　With this surprise attack, they hit Zegert's emptiness.
　We've been betting on it from the start.
　Our plan to reverse the power gap between us...

My...

　The giant dragon's dragon breath took a decent bite from the giant dragon's dragon breath, and Zegert was still standing.

　But as expected, he seemed to have taken damage.
　White smoke was coming out of his entire body, and blood was flowing out of his skin, which was torn everywhere.

''Zegert!''

　Regal rushed forward with a roar and unleashed a slash.

''Kook, this........!

　Although the Beast Emperor also fought back, his movements were definitely slowing down.
　Even so - Zegart tried to push Regal back with his fearsome physical strength.

''As expected of him, he's formidable...!
No matter how much damage you're doing, you're not worth the damage.
I'm here too!

　And Lilim, who had changed into a slime, wrapped around Zegert's feet and blocked his movements.

''Oh, my........''

　To the Beast Emperor, who had stopped moving──I aimed at the sub-arm that grew from its back and held the gun I pulled out of my pocket.

I'm not going to be able to get it right. It's the king's hand (check), Zegert.

　Squeeze the trigger.

　Phew!

'Acceleration!'

　The roar of the bullets fired and Stella's spell overlapped with the roar of the bullets.
　The bullet, which was accelerated and multiplied in power by that spell, shattered Zegert's magic arm.

''The sub-arm...?

　Zegert groaned in astonishment.

''I hear it was strong against magic, but not that strong against physics.

　This was also information that Stella's Eye of the Apocalypse (Apocalypse Notes) saw through.

　She looked at the 'past' where Tsukuyomi created the sub-arm and grasped its weaknesses.
　Even if it's my original power or a Judas-class magic power, it's a magic defense armor that even a high-level demon class can't break.
　But on the other hand, my physical defense is more fragile than that.

　Of course, Zegart won't show any gaps that would allow him to easily crush the sub-arm.
　That's why we worked together to attack and cut off his attention until the very last minute.

　And then we waited.
　And then I saw an opening.

I'm back!

　My whole body was burning hot.
　With the Miracle Armor away from his hands, my weakened magic power was restored.

''If relying on force and trickery is your 'king's power,' then my 'king's power' is this.

　Thrusting out his right hand.

　Convergence-type, Slash of the Void (Vanity Blade).
　The magic blade that shines in black and purple was born there.

The power of the bond that is created with your friends...
'Sweet ... to the extent that it's repulsive.

　Zegart spits.

'Call me sweet, call me sweet. I'll use this bond to cut off your ambitions!

　The sword of emptiness that was thrust out pierced the beast emperor's chest.
