 I used my flying magic to head to the battlefield.

 I left Stella and the others on the spot and had the Heavenly Army's separate force prepare for them.
 Soon after, we reached the front line.

''Velfer!''

 He called out to the Demon King, who was struggling with hundreds of heavenly weapons.

''Freed...''

 Wölffer looks back in amazement.

'I'm sorry to leave my post, but I decided now was the time to join in.

 I explain.

"They've left Stella and the others out there. They'll be fine. I'll stay and fight.
It's so reassuring to have you here, my Demon King.

 Judas comes over with a smirk.

 He has a spare attitude, but his purple costume is burned and sooty in places.
 As expected, Judah also seems to be having a hard time dealing with this number.

 It would be the same for Welfar and the four great demon army chiefs.

 Do we need to get this done in one fell swoop before prolonging the war?

''Homing Ray!''

 I released hundreds of magic bullets that automatically detect targets.

 It's also meant to check the opponent's armor strength, so it's a small trick instead of a small check first.

 A flower of explosive light blooms on the battlefield.
 A chain of explosions dyes the surroundings crimson.
 But....

It's not going to take much more than this to destroy it.

 As expected, the heavenly weapons made by Mithril have a strong magic resistance.

''We'll just have to hit them with more powerful spells.......''

 I looked around again at my surroundings.

 I saw a huge dragon──Zeed surrounded by dozens of heavenly weapons.
 The slime Nabam, the female swordsman Alfina, and the undead Hazel are also pushed to the front of the massive amount and are defending themselves.

''The wide range of high-explosive magic engulfs the surroundings and if possible, I'd like to gather them all in one place and burn them down,''

 I bit my lip.

'I can handle it if I just collect them.

 Judah said.

'What?'
I can lock her up for a minute or two. Do you have any idea of the magic that could wipe them out in that amount of time?
Yeah, that's one.

 I nod.

"Then I'll help you warm up.

 I said and Judah jumped up into the sky.

'This spell requires a prolonged chanting (charge). In the meantime, Mr. Freed, keep them in check. Welfar, flail about at random.
Okay.
Hey, man, why don't you just go flail around?

 I continued to shoot all the 'homing rays' I could find.
 Wölffer also laughed at Judah's words a moment ago and tore apart the heavenly weapons at hand, blowing them apart.

''Demon tribe.........''
"Wicked men ... destroy ...

 That's the voice that comes from the Heavenly Weapon.

"Destroy...
"Destroy...
Perish!

 And from hundreds of them at the same time.

 It's the same as the 'Heavenly Soul High King' we fought against in the past.

 The only thing they do is to annihilate the demons.
 They are cold-hearted weapons of slaughter without a shred of mercy.

Just because they are demons doesn't give them a reason to be destroyed!

 I couldn't help but shout.

 When I was a hero, when I was fighting on the side of the gods, the demon race was my enemy.

 But now it's different.
 It's not the same anymore.
 It's a friend to protect and an important place to belong.

 That's why I'm going to keep fighting.

 I'm going to keep fighting...

I'm so glad you're holding on. You completed the spell, and now you've done it.

 And Judah's voice comes from behind me.

''Your desire to protect the demon race seems to be genuine.

 Judah seems to be laughing.
 He looks happy.

'Well, now it's my turn to do it - "Dimension Coffin"!

 The moment Judah chanted the spell, the surrounding atmosphere - no, space itself rang out.

 The heavenly weapons were all enveloped in a pale yellow-white glow.

 In the next moment, they gathered in front of me.
 At the same time, something like a cage of light traps them all together.

''Fufu........''

 Judah let out a deep breath.

''Hundreds of coordinates, spatial movement, and blockades - compound magic acting on space is tiring as expected.
This is...

 I don't understand the logic, but it seems that all the Heavenly weapons have gathered in front of me anyway.
 In a position that doesn't involve my allies in the line of attack.

''Shouldn't you have done that when I was?''

 Velfer tsked.

'This magic will use up most of my magic power. Even your attack magic would indeed be unable to reap the benefits of this number in a single blow, right? We can't afford to let the surviving enemy hit us back.

 And Judas.

'That light cage will hold for about a minute. Can you settle the matter in that time, Mr. Freed?

 Smiling, she looks at me.
 Her smile is as aloof as ever, but her eyes are serious.

 With a single blow, I'll get rid of these guys...
 I'm sure that's why he used the magic he just used.

"──Take care of the rest.

 I nodded vigorously to Judas and increased my magic all at once.

 Now, it's time to finish up.
