俄罗斯o

There was a sound like the creaking of bones. I might not be able to hold out for too long.

\'Are you okay, Utsurogi-kun?　Doesn\'t it bother you?

He\'s okay. But I\'m all throbbing.

Okay. So you gotta finish it soon, then.

Rin\'s voice was full of tension.

Even so, it was probably because of Beni\'s blood that he was able to withstand combining with her in a compressed state. Although the side effects of the "bad one" are not yet clear, but the combination of everyone\'s power makes them feel once again that they are one strength.

It\'s a good thing that you\'re not the only one.

\'\'Come from Heaven, Light of Compassion!　Give my friends the strength to rebuild!　Healing Light!

A soft glow dwells in a single horn and heals the fine wounds on Ryuzaki\'s entire body. Ryuzaki gives a bitter smile.

\'\'Hakuba........ You\'ve become quite happy chanting...\'\'

I mean, everything is better when it\'s fun, right?

It was Hakuba who said something plausible.

Kyousuke grasped and opened his hands, checking the feel. The weight of the weight and pressure, the slightest movement of both arms felt powerful. I have a confident feeling that this is going to work.

I made eye contact with Ryuzaki and nodded. Ryuzaki spread his wings and turned his back to this side.

Probably myself and Rin are the first dragon knights (dragon riders) in the second year and fourth class.

As Kyousuke, who loves fairy tales and old homegrown RPGs, it\'s a bit exciting.

\'Let\'s ride, Ryuzaki.\'

Yeah.

The white horse gives me some kind of worried look. Is something wrong? Normally chatty and high-spirited Rin is also very talkative and high-spirited, but only this time she was extremely silent. In addition to Ei, even the knights are looking at us with a nervous look on their faces.

When Kyousuke put his hand on Ryuzaki\'s shoulder and placed his center of gravity on it, Ryuzaki said, \'\'Guh! I let out a muffled scream.

\'\'Gu........!　Oh,

"Oh?

Oh, no, it\'s nothing.

Ryuzaki refocused his entire body and slowly stood up with Kyousuke and Rin on his back.

It was there that Kyousuke finally came to a point. The word that Ryuzaki swallowed was \'heavy\'. Rin in a compressed state should have been quite heavy, as I recall, so it\'s not surprising. Ryuzaki shouldn\'t even know that Rin was in a compressed state in the first place, so it must have been quite a surprise.

Even so, the reason why he didn\'t say \'heavy\' must have been because Rin was a girl. That word is forbidden for a girl. And moreover, Rin was the person that Ryuzaki had confessed to at least once. Kyousuke secretly shuddered, wondering if this was the consideration of a man who was popular.

\'\'Ryu, are you okay, Ryuzaki-kun?　Are you okay?　You\'re not pushing yourself?

Everyone....!　I\'ll do everything I can to help you.　Rin, I told you earlier...!

The man, Kunihiro Ryuzaki. He was magnificent. The dragon, which had been staggering for a while, eventually regained its balance and spread its wings again.

Clenching its teeth, it flaps its wings. It\'s a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you\'re looking for.

\'\'Both Utsurogi and Rin........are taking it too far.......!　I can\'t be the only one who doesn\'t!

Ryuzaki.....

Let\'s go, you two!　Don\'t let them shake you off!

Is this the bottom line of the Atari race (Dragonoid) that moved into Phase 2? I\'m sure you\'ll be able to find out more about this as well. I\'m going to be the back of Red Wing. I\'m not going to be able to get it right.

\'\'That\'s fast...!　It\'s so fast...!

Her excitement echoed directly in my head.

\'I don\'t dare mention a comparison, but it\'s just much faster!

Oh, well...

Was that her own way of showing consideration for Kyousuke, who loved old domestic RPGs so much?

When I looked down to the ground, I saw Ei and Hakuba were just beginning to move with the members of the Order. Looking down at the battlefield from the sky again, it had changed a lot since the beginning. Part of the fortress line has been largely broken down, and the corpses (ghouls) and small demons (imps) are rushing in. Will Serena really be safe? Ei and the others rode into the collapsed fortress line.

Soon, Red Wing\'s back visibly approached. Ryuzaki opened his agito and spewed out a scorching breath from his mouth. Red Wing evades upward and vertically, as if noticing us for the first time. Kyousuke thrust out his right fist.

\'\'Shoot, Himemizu!

Yes!

A highly compressed bullet of water, compressed to a high density, was fired from his right fist. Noticing this, Red Wing took a defensive stance with his arms crossed, but the shell shot its impact over his guard. Slumping wide in the air, the Red Wing Demon lost his stance.

\'It\'s working!\'

Ryuzaki shouted clearly. Rin also emitted a pleasant smile.

\'Alright, let\'s call it the Himemizu Ten Billion Megaton Shoot.

You\'ll have to discuss that with Ei a little more.

As Red Wing loses his stance, Ryuzaki hits him with a brace of breaths without pause. The Red Wing Demon would be burned by flames all over its body. The part covered by the black armor would probably be unharmed, but even so, the sallow skin would be greatly scorched.

However, it was still the demon\'s true nature to be fearful. The red-winged monster was heading straight for us, shaking off the scorching breath that was constantly being spewed out, and headed straight for us.

\'\'Ryuzaki!\'\'

Kyousuke shouted, but the Red Wing had already dived into Ryuzaki\'s bosom. A destructive blow with speed and weight is shot into Ryuzaki\'s neck. Seeing the movement of the red winged demon that was about to nip the follow-up blow, Kyousuke kicked Ryuzaki\'s back.

\'\'Utsurogi!\'\'

Hey!

He leapt into the air and formed himself into a Red Wing body in the air. The Red Wing Demon muttered hatefully.

\'\'You, at this point in time, you still........!

\'\'Ryuzaki-kun!　I\'ll take care of this one!

The red-winged demon can\'t support the super weight that Rin has in a compressed state. Combined with the acceleration during the leap, it crashes down towards the ground in one fell swoop.

It\'s a good idea to have a good deal more than just a few of these things in your life. He slammed into the ground like this, and then it was round two as it was. Kyousuke, Rin and the red-winged demon flew back to the battlefield on the ground again with a roar.

Suddenly, an iron ship appeared on the battlefield, running on land. The armies of the little demons, corpse demons, and some of the dead spirit kings shifted their targets towards it. As a result, the enemy\'s army rushes to the heavy landing ships that have just been refurbished.

No, the refurbishment was not finished. For the time being, it was merely a matter of connecting a shaft to the prime mover so that it would be able to run on the ground. The outer wall surface, which was tattered by rust and age, was almost untouched, which caused Kurumori (Gremlin), the superintendent of the refurbishment, to scream.

\'\'Gosh, Five-Minute Riverbed!　Do something!　It\'ll be destroyed in a heartbeat!

"So, all available combatants, sally forth!　Let\'s see, \'Turn to the ship\'s direct guard\'!

Gokugawara (Goblin) shouted that over the ship\'s radio while looking at the terminology memo Koganei had left behind.

Kenzaki (Dullahan) was the first to jump out of the way. He straddles the back of Washio (Gryphon) and cuts into the army of little devils trying to board from the sky. The goblins on the gun emplacements on the deck provided covering fire with their machine guns. Their boss\'s position was completely given over to the goblins, and it helped that they were excellent manpower, but as for ammunition, they didn\'t have that much to spare, so they couldn\'t waste it.

Okumura the Orc, Zekou the Wild Oga, Kagoi (Gargoyle), Uozumi (Gilman), and Matango (Matango) also popped up on deck one by one. The Tentacleshara (Roper) carefully pulled each and every one of the corpses that tried to climb the outer walls.

Is this something I should do?

Benii, who was brushing his nails in boredom, muttered something like that. Goshigawara scratched his head.

\'\'I don\'t know. Well, it would help if you could get out. We can\'t defeat the King of the Dead (the Decapitator) on our own, though.\'\'

Hmm. Well, I\'ll do it when I\'m ready.

Ah, Asuka!

Saying that, Benii left the bridge. Sakuma also hurriedly followed her.

Around the time the two of them disappeared, Inugami, who had been sitting in the corner, also slowly got up and, with his hands in his skirt pockets, still tried to leave the ship\'s bridge. Goshigawara glanced at it and stopped her.

\'Ah, Inugami.\'

Huh?

It seems that the insects are in a bad place, and the delinquent girl (outlaw) Inugami Hibiki turns menacingly towards them.

However, that doesn\'t faze Gokugawara, who has been friends with "Red Chanko Nabe" since middle school.

"The locker room is downstairs at the end of the hall,

I know it\'s none of my business, but...

Inugami said as he spat and headed firmly to the changing room.

\'Five-minute riverbed, I see something interesting.

Nekomiya (Ket Shih), sitting on the bridge, says something like that while tracing his proud beard.

\'Funny stuff?\'

It\'s a one-on-one match between Utsurogi and Red Wing. Revenge match, I suppose?

Pointing the telescope at the point she was pointing at, I could see that Kyousuke and the red winged demon were indeed staring at each other. On Kyousuke\'s side, his entire body is covered with a blue translucent membrane. That\'s probably Himemizu Rin. I can\'t see Ei this time, but it seems that he plans to challenge her in a combined state.

How does he plan to fight an opponent that even a full cross couldn\'t compete with him? Goshigawara wondered, but there was nothing about Kyousuke\'s demeanor that made him feel uneasy.

But if there was one thing that bothered him, it was

"Nekomiya, I don\'t think they call that a one-man battle.

Yeah, well, it\'s two against one.

On the deck, Sakuma was just about to use his magic to knock down the little devils that had swarmed over, all at once.

\'\'Your Highness, are you alright!

The knight rushed to Serena\'s side, cutting down the little demons and wights. Following them, Hakuba and Ei also reached her. Serena, dressed in a dress, is nodding her head frantically as she squeezes the long spear (Spear) in her arms. The knights who were attached to her escort all seemed to be fully wounded.

A significant number of enemy troops were rushing into the fortress line. It was already impossible to say that they were safe just because they were inside.

The white horse cast a recovery spell on the wounded knights with a very high tension. Meanwhile, Ei was checking the surroundings. There was no sign of the enemy.

\'\'Ah, um. Utsurogi-san and Lin-san...?\'\'

Those two are fighting.

After answering Serena\'s question briefly, Serena hugged her long spear tightly.

\'\'Is that so.....

Or is she also chewing on her own helplessness? Ei saw Serena\'s troubled expression and thought about this.

\'\'For now, let\'s move on. I will go out to the rooftop once while protecting His Highness the Princess. Will Hakuba-dono and Hino-dono also help us?

\'Of course. Serena, you\'re a transfer student (classmate).

What?

The white horse says something in good shape at the knight\'s words.

Following the knight who seems to be the oldest, they all begin to move. The white horse chirpingly carried Serena on his own back. On the way to the rooftop, Ei asked Serena this.

\'\'Princess Serenade, I have one question for you, using your knowledge as an avenue.\'\'

\'Oh, yes. What is it?

"Kyousuke is now merging with Himemizu in a compressed state. From your point of view, do you think you can get enough power to resist that red winged demon (Red Wing)?

Serena puts her hand over her mouth and begins to think seriously. Cautious about giving an answer, she clarifies.

\'In conclusion, I can probably do it.\'

Oh,

A modest pleasure leaks out of the white horse\'s mouth.

\'The most troublesome thing about dealing with Red Wing is that robust armor. I think he himself is probably vulnerable to heat and light, but that armor is designed to completely offset that weakness. So, there are two ways you can break that thing.

Serena raised two fingers with a bleep as she straddled the white horse. The knights also listened to the words of His Highness the Princess, who was well versed in monster knowledge.

\'\'We can either pull off the armor and then attack with a magical attack, or we can now only win a simple contest of strength.

Does that mean it\'s the latter that Kyousuke and the others can get?

No, as it turns out, you could get both.

When she said the unexpected words, they all went out to the roof of the fortress line.

The enemies on the battlefield were already reducing their numbers considerably. That also meant that the majority of them had invaded the interior of the fortress line.

And in the center of the reddish-brown wilderness, there was the figure of Kyousuke and Red Wing glaring at each other.

\'\'The question is how long Utsurogi-san\'s skeleton will be able to withstand Lin-san in a compressed state.

He said it wasn\'t likely to last very long.

\'I knew it........\'

Shifting my gaze slightly, the remaining enemy troops on the ground were heading towards the heavy cruisers, and the human troops were chasing after them; by intercepting and pincering the 2 year 4 Demon King\'s army, that force would be able to crush most of them. Carol\'s battle against the two Red Wings was also ongoing. The stray little demons and wights were being swept from the sky by Ryuzaki.

Once the battlefield was cleared, all that remained was to clean up the inside of the fortress line. If all the forces that are out there right now are invested in us, it won\'t take much longer. The battle is coming to a conclusion.

\'\'But Utsurogi-san and the others can win, right?

Yeah, I think so.

Okay, I believe you.

Serena nodded and watched intently as Kyousuke and the others watched the decisive battle that was about to begin.

Staring at the Red Wing demon in front of her, Kyousuke took a Jeet Kune Do stance. Red Wing didn\'t even try to hide his frustration and spat out.

\'Kung Fu movie gokko at this point in time?　I can\'t afford to play around with you.

I\'m not playing around with you. I\'m going to take you down.

Red Wing is clearly wary of Kyousuke and the others. The deciding factor is the "Hime Water 10 Billion Megaton Shoot" or other high-water pressure cannonball that was released earlier. That\'s the one.

In terms of physical combat ability, Kyousuke and his team have acquired enough power to resist Red Wing. That shell is the proof of that. The lickety-split attitude that was displayed just a moment ago has completely disappeared.

It\'s not good for the fight to drag on like this. Kyousuke thought of all the bones in his body that were mishandling. The density of Rin\'s density in a compressed state, even with Kyousuke\'s strengthened body, can\'t withstand it for a long time.

\'\'Utsurogi-kun........\'\'

Yeah, I know.

Receiving Rin\'s words, which were muttered with concern, Kyousuke took a step forward.

\'\'Tch...!

Looking at our legs that have started to move, Red Wing also clicks his tongue. Did he step on it as a preemptive move? Faster than Kyousuke could take a second step, he accelerated his body and slammed his fist towards us with great force.

\'\'Oooh-ooh!\'\'

Huh!

Kyousuke caught the punches that were delivered with one arm. A slippery feeling was transmitted from the palm of his hand to his entire body.

But that\'s it. The red-winged demon\'s physical strength that frightened Ryuzaki and kept the class\'s boast of monstrous strength in equal measure at bay, but it\'s completely manageable for the current Kyousuke. With his left palm catching the punch, Kyousuke clenched his right fist tightly.

First, a shot!　I\'m going to bang you as hard as I can to repay you for all you\'ve done!

Ooo-yaaah!

Breathing with dignity, he returned the blow with his full strength (punch) and slammed it into the demon\'s face. The impact of the collision shook the atmosphere.

Goooooooooooh!

The red-winged demon screamed and rolled over the reddish-brown wilderness. Kyousuke slowly pulled back his outstretched fist.

Just one hit, just one hit, this power.

\'\'I can do it........!　You can do it, Utsurogi-kun!

Oh...!

At Rin\'s words, Kyousuke nodded. I can do it. We have enough to counter it!

Kyousuke and Rin walk forward further to make a follow-up attack. They slam more fists into the Red Wing, which has risen to its feet.

The black cage moved, and the unrolled fist was received. But the momentum of the punches did not stop. It gouges out the guard and the impact is slammed onto the armor.

\'\'Ughhh...!

Eating up the impact, the red-winged demon rolled over the wilderness. In the face of Kyousuke\'s and Rin\'s punches, which turned massive amounts of water pressure into physical force, the guards made no sense at all. Even so, Red Wing slowly stood up and boldly struck at them.

\'\'Hmph!\'\'

Faster than his opponent\'s fist could reach, Kyousuke\'s third shot, which seemed to gouge his abdomen, was swallowed up.

\'\'d*mn.....　This...!　Even though I\'ve activated Phase 2, a mere skeleton...!

Holding his stomach, the red-winged demon spits out hateful words.

\'\'It\'s not just me. This power.........!

It felt like the bones in his entire body were creaking. Kyousuke\'s entire body was becoming unable to withstand the high pressure of Rin\'s body. There wasn\'t much time to spare until the time limit. But even so, Kyousuke did not stop walking. Rin should have understood that, but she didn\'t try to uncoalesce.

They all piled up the impossible as best they could, little by little. The stacked tower was now about to reach a height of strength that it could never have reached just a few days ago.

\'Nuts!

The black energy body creates an effect like a lightning bolt on both of Red Wing\'s arms. The black lightning that was released clung to the bodies of Kyousuke and Rin. However, that didn\'t stop Kyousuke from moving forward slowly. No matter how strong this energy body is, no matter how strong the attack is, there\'s no way to make it reach the depths of the ocean until it breaks the depths of the ocean.

The volume contained within Rin\'s body dispersed the power. While she is enduring the attack, Kyousuke swings his fist at her even more.

\'\'Ooiaaaaah!\'\'

Immediately after slamming his fist into the ground, a high-water pressure artillery shell (Himemizu Hyakku Megaton Shoot) was fired from zero distance. With a crisp sound, a slight crack appeared in the solid armor.

"We, the Red Moon bloodline (Red Moon), to such and such a skeleton.......

I told you. It\'s not just me...!

The curse is spat out and Red Wing is given more of a chase.

\'Himemizu, Ei, Serena-san, Hakuba, Ryuzaki, and Benii!　Because everyone helped me a little bit........!

"...and...?

Instantly, the red-winged demon\'s eyes widened in astonishment, and he took a bite out of Kyousuke\'s fist. When he was blown away, he held his stomach and stood up.

\'\'Ku, gu........!　I knew it........!

Spreading his wings wide, Redwing prepares to fly. He\'s going to escape. Kyousuke thought.

\'I can\'t take them any longer...!　Report to the king...!

Wait....!　Ugh........

Kyousuke tries to chase after it, but the intense pain that rushed through his body immediately afterwards made him fall to one knee without a second thought. The skeleton creaks. The limit of wearing dignity in a compressed state is approaching. It\'s not just a matter of time before he or she will be able to get the job done.

Utsurugi-kun!　Are you okay!

Well, there\'s still some...

Don\'t push yourself!　If it\'s impossible you can do, fine, but if it\'s impossible you can\'t...

Rin\'s voice echoes in my head. Indeed, the battle situation is almost tilted in our favor. It\'s certain to say that even if we missed that one unit, it wouldn\'t have any impact. Our objective here had almost been achieved.

But at that time, another voice, not Rin\'s, echoes in Kyousuke\'s head.

---Don\'t let him go. Kill him.

It was like an order received from someone else, but at the same time it was like an impulse that sprang up from within his own heart. Kyousuke was bewildered by the mysterious voice, but he felt irresistible. If he doesn\'t give a thud to Red Wing, who is now trying to escape in front of him, he\'ll be in big trouble. That thought swept through my mind.

The intense pain receded as if it were a lie, leaving only the sensation of the bones in his body creaking and screaming. Kyousuke stood up and slowly jumped up, glaring at the back of the red winged demon.

\'\'Utsurogi-kun, can you go...?\'\'

Yeah, we\'re gonna take him down. We\'re not going to let him get away.

Uh, yeah...

Nevertheless, Red Wing\'s body is already pretty much flying off into the sky. The flight speed is not great. Ryuzaki would be able to catch up with it, but whether he would be able to notice us or not is another matter. Kyousuke took two or three steps back, glaring at his back, and started running at once as if to help him.

Rin, too, understood Kyousuke\'s intentions and matched her breathing. The moment Kyousuke kicked up the earth with one hell of a force, a large amount of water was sprayed from the back, pushing his body high into the air.

\'\'Hime water megaton missile ki------k!

With Rin\'s high-pitched roar, the jumping kick that was released into the sky soon went straight at Red Wing\'s back as if it were a missile in itself. Red Wing noticed Kyousuke\'s shadow, which was chasing him at once, and turned around.

The kick was to Red Wing\'s chest as he looked back. It just gouges into the cracked area. A missile kick that turned acceleration into destructive power kicked through the armor, snapping his ribs and becoming a single stake driven into his heart.

The red-winged demon spat blood and screamed a decapitating curse with anger and hatred in its bright red eyes.

\'\'Don\'t think you can get away with this........this kind of imitation for free......!

But then the demon\'s gaze was not on Kyousuke or Rin, but on someone far away.

\'Even if I don\'t report it, the king will eventually find out about your betrayal!　You can\'t run away from the king\'s rule, Queeeeeeeeeeee!

\'\'Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Kyousuke\'s body broke through the Red Wing\'s body, using the remaining amount of water in Rin\'s body as a propellant. The fresh blood that bathed his entire body mixed with the water that was spewed out and scattered into the air. Kyousuke\'s and Rin\'s bodies that leapt into the air soon lost their inertia and fell to the reddish-brown earth.

With a roar, a cloud of dust was raised and Kyousuke and Rin landed on their feet. Red Wing\'s body, which had a large hole in its chest, turned to ashes and disappeared as if it had been burned by the heat of the sun, faster than it could fall to the ground.

\'\'Hey, Utsurogi-kun. What did that man say in his last moments?

Well....

Rin asks, but of course Kyousuke doesn\'t understand and can only nod his head.

The last place the red-winged demon turned his gaze was only the heavy cruiser that Ryuzaki and the others had just boarded earlier.

\'\'.........\'\'

She sat on the heavy duty chimney and watched as one of the pawns dispersed.

She wanted to hunker down in the promised cemetery (catacombs) for a while longer and get ready, but it seemed the sooner these guys got numb, the better. It would not be possible to keep silent any longer. All of the pawns who have realized their own betrayal have been successfully disposed of, but it is only a matter of time before the king realizes this.

It is only a matter of time before the king realizes this. We knew that this would happen sooner or later, and we had already planted the minimum number of seeds. All we have to do now is trust our trusty classmates.

---You can\'t escape the King\'s grip, Queen!

The pawn\'s demise had reached her ears. I know. It is the fate of the subordinate.

But she hates subordination. She always wants to be free.

It\'s a good thing that I\'m not going to be able to get rid of the pawn, and that\'s why I feel a small amount of regret for giving up my "control" to keep her from escaping. If possible, I would not use this kind of authority in the future.

The two remaining pawns had just been defeated by the human knights. There were only a few remaining pawns. In less than a few more hours, the battle would be over. On the deck and around the ship, my classmates were just clearing out the little demons and wights.

I don\'t want to be seen exercising my powers too much, but I\'ll still help them out a bit.

Beni Asuka (Queen) spread her red wings on her back and flew down from the top of the chimney in a huff as it was.
