Arcadia Papal States
　Aeris perspective

"Haha, that's some good magic!　My arms are going to be cut off one by one!

　d*mn it!　You son of a b*tc*!　I can't believe that my magic is being cut and he's attacking me even more with a smile. But now I can fight Gilgas too!

　Gilgas, the Seven Demon Generals, the demon tribe that rampaged in Arcadia about a year ago. That time, I fought Rey and was defeated. Back then I could only watch and couldn't help, but now I would.

''Ola-la-la!　Let's go, woman!

　Gilgas has four arms, each with a tomahawk, for a total of eight arms, and he cuts at me. With that, a number of arms are flying on Gilgas's back, and they're also flying at me. They've been flying at me since a while ago, no matter how many times I cut them.

'One after another, it's just too much trouble!　Snake Flame Dance!

　I split my sword blade and wield it like a whip. It dances around me and cuts through my flying arms.

''Oraa!''

　In the meantime, Gilgas, who was approaching, prevented the Tomahawk from swinging down with the great taiji sword, which was returned to its original blade. GUNU!　What a force to be reckoned with!　My arm goes numb after just one hit.

　I'm not concerned about that, Gilgas doesn't care, he just swings down even more. It's not easy for me to cut it off, because it's a tomahawk with a compressed amount of magic power.

　That's why I decided to avoid it rather than receive it. I deflected it with my big fat sword and flew backwards to avoid it. Then, the moment the tomahawk swings down from Gilgas', the ground splits wide open.

　That's really stupid power!　On top of that, an arm flies after me. The flying arms can be cut, so I cut them off without hesitation. Totally, just let it go regardless of what's around it!

　With quite a few arms raining down on me, I cut off only the ones that look like they're going to hit me, and avoid the others. The demons are screaming behind me, but I don't care. It's all Gilgas' fault.

　The arms flying towards the palace are all blocked by Caro, who prevents me from flying towards the palace. So I can head there without looking back.

　I dodge through the arms that are falling and swing my great sword. With the great taiji, whose blades have split to form a whip, I attack at the very edge of the Tomahawk's hit.

''Snake Flame Lotus!''

No, my tomahawk barely missed you, you little bastard!

　Gilgas gets frustrated and tries to play off my attacks to get closer, but that's why I step back and keep my distance. Why should I get close enough to fight a close-range specialist like you?

"It's too much trouble. At least give me this!

　Saying that, Gilgas flew his arm....................not the arm but the tomahawk he was holding. The moment I saw it, a shiver went down my spine. It's not a good idea to receive that one.

　I jumped back from the spot, but the moment the tomahawk hit the ground, it exploded. The ground was blown away. On top of that, in the aftermath of the tomahawk's blade hitting the ground, a slash ran through the ground and cut off the soldiers who were on that extension of the tomahawk. Regardless of whether they were friend or foe.

'Oh, this is good. I mimicked Ravert's weapon flying at me. I didn't know I could do something similar.

　While saying that, Gilgas grabbed the hand that threw the tomahawk in a goofy grip, and a new tomahawk appeared in his hand. Well, I think it can be done because it's made up with magic power........

''There you go, one after another!

　What?　Oh, my God, one after the other!　And the arms flying behind it are coming towards it, too!　If I could at least turn off the tomahawk, it would be totally different. Already!

　Tomahawks and arms falling like rain. I avoid the tomahawks and cut off the arms that seem to hit, but of course I'm overwhelmed by the numbers and can't make it in time.

　I'm surrounded by them all at once. It's no use. I had no choice but to charge in with one arm. When I decided to do so, I cut the arms that were raining down on me and held up my big sword to deflect the tomahawk as much as possible.

I told you to let me handle it.

　The moment I heard the voice, multiple layers of barriers appeared around me. Tomahawks and arms crashed into the barriers, breaking them one after another, but they became less and less powerful as they counted, and gradually stopped. Totally dependable.

''Tch, you're that saint from that time!

　Gilgas will still attack me, but the attacks won't reach me anymore. But it must be quite a burden on Caro to put up so many barriers. We have to settle this matter as soon as possible.

　I pour as much magic power as I can hold into the big sword. Then, as I was told at the beginning, I proceed straight towards Gilgas. It's time to go.

"Leave it alone!　Snake King Flame Dragon Slayer!

　I swing the big sword at Gilgas. The flames cling to the extended Dai-Taiji sword, changing its shape as it goes. The figure resembles the dragon figure that Ray had previously activated in the royal capital.

　The long, snake-like flaming dragon bites and burns one of Gilgas' arms, then comes back and pierces Gilgas from behind.

''Gah, ha!

Burn up.

　And from the point of penetration, flames burst forth. Gilgas was burned by the flaming dragon's flames from inside his body. Gilgas laughed until he was burned out.
