What is this magic power?
While running through the battlefield, Yuuhi shed cold sweat.
Even she, whose magic perception was not quite her forte, immediately understood its dread.
I cant feel Yuki-kuns magic power! What on earth is happening!?
Yuuhi raised her running speed.
To head towards the location of the excessively strong and dreadful magic power
What is this
Desastre and Levia who finally appeared in the frontlines could not believe the spectacle before their eyes.
Gahah
Ugh
What came into sight first were the tattered Brad and Tia.
The sisters Shironeko and Mineko rolled towards the center, raised a groan and could not move even a twitch.
Glain and Roa bore burns on their whole body and Elka was trampled on her head by somebody.
gh That man was like that isnt he!
Yes
Huh~? Youve come, you two. I wonder, didnt you know you were targeted? Well, it saves me the trouble so its fine though.
While kicking away Elka he was trampling on, Touma turned his body towards Desastre and Levia.
( These people should be exhausted as well And yet he is uninjured)
His body had no injuries, not even dust.
On the contrary, those who challenged Touma had serious wounds upon serious wounds.
With this much, one could see how out of standard he was.
So, you two will be playing with me next right?
Gh!
Along with an innocent smile, Touma rushed on
Well, my memories with you is kind of like this I guess.
That so Im quite the ordinary guy huh?
Nono, you aint ordinary. First your way of thinking is different from the masses.
Mother scratched her head while saying so.
Sure, when my mother who can do something like this is around, I shouldnt be an ordinary person.
But thats not what I mean.
Thats not it even I had a mother and a father a family I mean.
Im thankful for my life in my second family, but it honestly didnt feel like a family.
The important parts didnt change but it felt like a connection like this is slim.
And it made me realize a monster like me also had a time when I was a person.
I thought I shouldnt have forgotten it.
Like really. You fucker with no filial piety.
While saying so, mother dropped her fist on my head.
It hurts.
Its been a long time since I felt pain.
Even then Its not a bad feeling.
Thats right Ive been scold in this way before didnt I?
Now then Its about time right?
Is that so.
My mother stood up.
I resolve myself and look at her.
I ask you to at least do it in a way I dont suffer.
Hmph.
My mother extended her hand to me while averting her face.
And then she
My bad, that just then was a lie.
gently stroked my head.
Huuh?
No I mean I did say it quite seriously but you know me having to get rid of you was a lie.
I think a little about it.
After that, simmering anger heartily gushed forth.
Heeey what the!? My! What about my resolve!?
Ah, well, sorry about that, sorry.
I grab my mothers clothes and shake it.
But all she did was laugh foolishly and there were no signs of her reflecting on it at all.
What the hell, I ended up showing an incredibly serious mood there you know.
Well just think about it, my son.
Aah!?
That part is just the spitting image of meNo, try counting it properly I tell you. Did you kill two people?
Huh? Im going through this because I killed them right Wait, what?
That Touma guy, did he actuallydie?
Thats right I planned on killing that guy.
Isnt he still alive?
Havent I properly seen him when he appeared in front of my eyes?
Wasnt it sure that he was neither an undead nor an illusion
After that guy was dealt the finishing blow by you, he got medical treatment by the humans at the very last moment. And afterwards, to make sure he didnt get aimed at by the demons or beastmen, he was sheltered deeply in the castle. He camouflaged it by going as far as carefully making his tombstone.
then.
Have you guessed it? In other words, what you killed wasonlythat man called Kagerou. You didnt kill two people.
I reflexively crumble down from the knee.
I ended up feeling relieved from the core of my body.
And then afterwards, a hearty laughter filled my heart.
Hahahhahahah! What is thisI ended up feeling relieved.
Well, this is, what, divine retribution for forgetting about us on your own.
I wont be able to say anything if you tell me that.
Mothers are unfair.
But dont forget. You cant kill a person anymore. There wont be a next time you know. I repeat, dont kill the Hero whose face looks like a girl, get it?
Isnt that guy a monster just like me?
Youre both ordinary brats from my perspective. Youre not something outrageous like monsters.
True, were just brats from this kind of mothers perspective.
Im a little bit happy about it.
That theres someone who could call me, who could call Touma a person
that girly one too is an idiot whos losing his head over his love for you. Setsu, if you have even a little ounce of emotionsgo rescue him. You can do that, right?
My mother asked me while showing an evil face.
That kind of face is really just like me.
That much is obvious. After all Im the strongest.
Nobody can do the things I cant do.
I show the same evil face and provoked my mother.
Hmph, what I expected of my son. Then, gonna go back soon?
What, so in the end your business is just to warn me?
Theres also the reminiscent talk though.Ah, and also
The white airspace was crumbling down.
My consciousness was slowly falling into the deep hole.
Before I lose my consciousness, my mother talked to me in the end.
You. Since you came to this space, you had a moment where you just stopped caring about anything right? Keep reminding yourself of that feeling, you hear me?
What are you
See you, you stupid son of mine!
With the appearance of my mother thrusting up her thumb at the end, my consciousness was completely wrapped up in darkness.
Water wall!
Its useless you know!
Levia expanded a large wall of water.
However, Touma knocked a ball of fire on it and made it instantly evaporate.
It did not settle with just that, the flames directly assailed Levia.
Levia!
Kyah!
Desastre leapt from one side, held Levia in her arms and jumped.
The flames grazed Desastres foot, inflicting burns on that part.
Kuh!
That burn was quite terrible and Desastre, who should have been immediately cured even if she was burned by magma, was groaning in agony.
It was excessively severe and it did not even regenerate.
Desastre!?
My foot got crushed!
Did you just become unable to move with just that? I knew youre not a big deal even when youre called demon king.
As usual Touma was unhurt.
His facial expression contained boredom and that was mentally cornering Levia and Desastre.
(There is this much difference!? Were already powerl)
Ms. Elka!
At that time, a young brown haired girl ran past the two and rushed over to the collapsed Elka.
Ms. Elka Mr. Glain and Ms. Tia even!
Hmm? Youre one of the summoned Heroes arent you?
H-! You did this!?
That girl, Yuuhi flared up at Touma.
Just after she finally arrived trembled a little from fear, but she fixed her eyes straight on him
A strong girl arent you. The type Setsu seems to like.
Yuuhiplease run.
Ms Elka!?
Elka only raised her face and called for Yuuhi.
She was tattered enough that there were no place without injuries and breathing was seemingly difficult as well.
Thats why Ill kill you now. Together with that sow!
!
Toumas hand was pointed at Yuuhi and the others.
Having seen that, Levia and Desastre was flustered.
Stop!
They shouted, but the girls could no longer be in time to do anything.
Die
A magic that would blow them away with a single blow was fired it was that instant.
*crack*
Hm?
Somewhere, the sound of something breaking could be heard. That sound continued and the origin of that was discovered immediately.
Setsu?
The light sphere Setsu was wrapped up in began to break in pieces.
Similar to how a small bird emerges, those crackings expanded.
And then
Argh! Its suffocating, dammit!
An arm sprung out.
From there, crunchingly, the sphere began to be torn.
Im thankful that you protected me, but its a little too hard, mother.
Setsu appeared from inside.
Having completely extracted himself from the shell, Setsu, after seeing Touma standing in front of his eyes, grinned broadly.
sup Long time no see, Touma.
Aah At last, at last youve come out for me, Setsu
It was the moment the two Heroes, who once fought in the same way, faced each other in the battlefield.
