I stare at the rushing skeleton.

The sight of him rushing forward, unable to overcome his anger.

I thought when I saw that.

…Now that I think about it, there’s no one there right now, right?

An opportunity to abandon a virgin?

According to what the skeleton said, the wizard skeleton and his companions moved somewhere.

Well, in this case, it would probably be teleportation or some type of magic.

You might think it would be some distance, if not extremely far.

In other words, I have no colleagues to protect me!

“That’s lame. Did you think you could defeat me with that level of skill?”

That skull encourages me to get even more angry.

Get more angry!

Use that anger as your driving force to become stronger!

“Are you kidding me? You’re just dodging! Quickly, take out your weapon!”

Before you know it, that calm appearance has disappeared, and there is only one skeleton knight who has surrendered himself to anger.

When I saw him caught up in that passion, I responded.

“There is no weapon I can use against a weakling like you.”

“···bloke!”

Haha, get more angry! more!

You’re so angry that you knock me down!

“···I was going to package it up nicely and send it to the demon world! I will cut off all your limbs and rape you!”

“That’s not bad, if you can do it.”

Do it! please!

Please!

I was touched by his kind heart and decided to tease him even more.

If you tease them like this, they will work harder.

“···Hmph!”

What are you trying to do?

The skeleton stopped attacking and was preparing something.

Uh, should I prepare something strong?

In most cases, that’s it.

An attack that discards one turn and launches the next turn with the message [The boss is gathering strength…].

I glanced over and checked the status window, and sure enough, a similar message was displayed.

“Looks like you’re doing something interesting. Come, I’ll take it.”

“You will regret it, hero.”

Blue flames suddenly shot out from the left eye of the enraged skeleton.

From those eyes, a blue flame flew towards me.

“···!”

“Hah, I can’t believe you hit me like this. That’s stupid. If the opponent prepares a powerful attack, I should have defended or dug in.”

That’s your loss.

The Death Knight who chanted like that approached.

“and!”

“?!”

···ah.

At that moment, when I saw that Death Knight, I couldn’t hold back and let out an exclamation.

“I’m sorry. I have a condition where I can’t help but exclaim when I see a skull with one eye on fire.”

I can be sure that I am not the only one who has this disease.

No, how can you tolerate that?

There is no way anyone could hold back an exclamation of admiration when they see that.

hmm. It’s definitely true.

“Yes, you bitch! You’re fine! How…!”

Was he shocked that his fatal blow didn’t work?

There was confusion in the Death Knight’s voice.

“Well, it was a pretty effective attack. I commend you.”

Honestly, I was truly surprised.

I was thinking that the only people who could defeat me would be the Four Heavenly Kings or the Demon Lord.

Even though it was a special move, the stamina was reduced to a level similar to being attacked by Ishtar.

[Status abnormality: Combustion]? Because of this status condition, physical recovery is slow.

What, there’s even continuous damage.

For some reason, it tingled.

“I thought you could do it. I don’t believe you can do it.”

“···?”

He lightly ignored the questioning Death Knight and raised his sword to his chest.

“This is my first time using this in real life. Don’t disappoint.”

A weapon made by our kind lord.

A one-handed sword made from the remains of Tyrving, a member of the Demon King’s army.

His remains are stuck on the handle of the one-handed sword.

He is the devil of division.

Divide yourself, divide again and spread.

It was a devil who soon infiltrated society and caused chaos by dividing it.

So, what abilities did the sword made from his remains have?

···The answer is simple.

Cover the red bead with your right hand and let the mana flow.

“Oh, the sword…!”

okay.

The sword split.

“Well, this is my first time using it in real combat. Come on.”

A similar weapon was held in both hands.

Yes, it is a dual sword.

When the lord showed this feature, he was just amazed.

I was impressed by this wonderful sword and its wonderful performance.

But I was different.

Of course, it’s also a cool sword.

Needless to say, there’s no denying that it’s a great performance.

But there was something more important to me than that.

Dual swords.

A symbol of defeat.

It is an unfortunate weapon that even those who fight well will lose the moment they split the sword.

I was amazed by the symbolism.

Because it was the weapon I wanted.

It’s not just a symbol.

I heard that the twin swords are extremely difficult to handle.

To be honest, I don’t know much about swordsmanship because I am ignorant.

Even if I thought about it a little, I didn’t think I could handle dual swords.

That’s why it’s a dual sword.

Even if you act openly and sloppily, you cannot help but be deceived.

Because dual swords are difficult to handle!

“With your poor posture, this is your first time using it in real combat…? How far are you going to mock me!”

Our skeleton friend, who exclaimed exclamations every time he saw it, was furious.

Okay, I wanted this reaction.

You can do it, Skull!

Come on and eat me!

“Whoa, whoa…die!”

The Death Knight rushed towards me.

I felt like I was watching a VR movie as my body tried to evade even if I didn’t move.

And fight back as usual.

Death Knight blocks my attack.

In the second attack that followed, the body collapsed.

···uh?

“K-keak…!”

No, wait a minute.

uh?

Why are you hitting me again?

The counterattack would have been done once per attack.

Unless I decide to attack more, counterattacks only function once per attack.

I was certain because I had fought many times so far.

···But why are you hitting me again?

Fortunately, he didn’t die, but he quickly glanced at the status window while looking at the Death Knight who looked like he was about to die.

[Death Knight’s attack!]

[Airi’s counterattack!]

[Additional attack!]

[Airi’s counterattack!]

···Ah, damn it.

I had forgotten.

This was a JRPG.

···I was impatient.

Certainly, the dual swords are a symbol of defeat and a difficult weapon to handle.

That’s for sure. But this world is a JRPG tskur game.

I can’t believe I made this mistake even though I had that system in place.

The equipment of many JRPG game protagonists includes left and right hands.

And there are many cases where additional effects are granted depending on the weapon equipped in both hands.

···In the case of dual swords, additional action rights are granted in exchange for normal body weakness.

In other words, I’ve already landed two strong attacks.

“driving me crazy···.”

I had great expectations.

From now on, the twin swords are a seal, a seal!

…Still, I’m glad I found it before fighting the Four Heavenly Kings.

If I hadn’t known, a catastrophe would have occurred.

“Heh, heh haha…! There’s power, so there’s no need for skills, right!”

When you say that, it makes me think I’m a brain muscle, skeleton.

Looking at the specs, it seems to be correct.

“Seeing as my comrades didn’t come even though the time had passed, they must have been defeated. Ha, there was no way I could win against a hero. Is this it?”

“···You were strong enough.”

“Yes! I was strong! But I couldn’t win.”

His bitter, empty smile showed regret.

“We just wanted to return to the demon world! You ruined it.”

“No. That’s wrong, Skull.”

I felt a little sad, so I listened quietly.

This guy crosses the line.

“If you had tried to go back on your own, I wouldn’t have harmed you. However, you kidnapped the hero.”

“···Warrior?”

“Yes. He is a man with impressive blond hair. You should know this. I moved towards you because you kidnapped that hero.”

“Ah, aha… ahaha!”

what.

Why are you smiling?

“I see! Was he truly a hero? There were two heroes, this is nonsense!”

“···Where is he now?”

“If you’re curious, I’ll let you know. It’s after you.”

···back?

I looked back at his words.

A very large egg.

There was an egg big enough for a person to fit into.

“I thought he wasn’t a hero, so I went through a lot of trouble to reassemble it. Haha! In the end, it was all a useless effort.”

“Reassembly? ···What are you talking about?”

I have no idea what you’re talking about.

I don’t know why Guynis was locked up in a place like that, and what does reassembly mean?

“You will find out soon enough, hero. But, I feel bad that you are just getting what you want.”

In an instant, a blue flame appeared in his eyes once again.

The target is not me, but the eggs behind me.

I hurriedly blocked his attack, but it was not enough to block all the flames.

A magic circle floating above the egg behind me was distorted.

“···Ha, even if it breaks, that’s why it’s there. That guy is going to nag me. For destroying what I worked so hard to build.”

“You’re going to interfere until the very end.”

“Wouldn’t it be nice to show off one last grump to the guy who ruined our plans? … Well, it won’t be anything serious, so don’t worry.”

With those words, the skeleton wearing scary armor no longer moved.

···He’s dead.

By the way, is there Guynis in there?

I looked at the huge egg with suspicious eyes.

Did he notice that gaze?

A small crack appeared on the top of the giant egg.

Pap-tuk, pap-tuk.

A giant egg slowly breaking apart.

Inside the egg, there was a girl.
