Olaaaaah!

I fight back all the enemies that come at me.

This is a good thing. What do you want me to do, Captain!

The enemy is in a state of weakness and asks for help from their boss.

That's our chance! Once we know who the boss is, all we have to do is beat him.

That's what my brother told me when he was training. If we can defeat the boss, any large army can be defeated.

But the situation is turning out to be an unexpected turn for the enemy as well as me.

It's a good thing that the enemy behind me didn't care about getting their allies involved and just started shooting magic at me.

"Is this for real?

Seriously?

"f*ck! Everybody, get behind me! BURST BREAK!

I unleash my magic to protect the Dragon Emperor Faction and offset their attacks.

''Ta, that's saved!''

'Oh! Stand back and defend yourself!

I mean, I'm panicking, and it's hard to back down in this mess.

"Whoa!

Turning back to the voices, the enemy warriors who had been attacked by their allies were screaming.

''Ouch! It's disgusting! Burst break!

I unintentionally jump in front of the enemy and offset the magic coming towards me.

What the hell are you doing with us?

The enemy you saved looks at me with a stunned face.

I don't know! But I don't tolerate people who attack their friends, that's all!

As far as I'm concerned, they're a bunch of bastards in the back.

It's time to put these people down!

''Whoa!''

I jumped over the enemy with my flying magic and aimed at the tail end of the line.

But the enemy may have sensed this, too, and the one at the back of the room fired a spell at me.

It's not the same indiscriminate attack that you used earlier on without regard to getting your allies involved.

It's the magic that was aimed at me first!

Don't think you can get away with the same trick over and over again!

I put magic into my sword and cut off the magic the enemy released.

''Oh! I cut off the magic with my sword!''

The Dragon Knight!

This is why I'm not a dragon knight.

Anyway, I shrugged off the opponent's attack and charged at the guy who was laying in a heap behind me.

It's my turn! Suck it up!

First, there's one!

Not so fast!

Just when I thought the attack had been decided, I was suddenly interrupted from the side.

''Whoops!''

As I hurriedly avoided the surprise attack, I increased the output of my flying magic to one side and suddenly flipped it around, and also spewed high-powered flames from half of the weapon's blade, using the momentum of the evasion to counterattack.

''Nuh-uh!''

But my opponent also ducks my attack just in time.

And then both of us jumped away from each other to keep our distance.

"Dardzin, this kid is really good.

Looks like it.

The guy who shot the magic over there is called Dargin.

I'm not going to kill you if you don't surrender. I won't kill you if you surrender honestly.

...these two are a pain in the ass.

A dangerous wizard who isn't afraid to involve his friends in the fight, and a warrior who can avoid attacks using the equipment my brother made for him.

My gut is telling me that I shouldn't prolong the fight.

'Kuh........hahaha! You want me to surrender? To us?

Dargin suddenly starts laughing.

It's as if he didn't expect such a thing from you.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work. A mere human boy urges us to surrender.

Human? What's that? It's like you're not even human.

Dargin's eyes widen lightly as I pouted at him.

'Oops, this one's gone.'

Hmmm, but it's going to be hard to deal with that little bastard in his natural form anyway. It's time to fight him in his natural form.

That's right. The number of our troops has been greatly reduced by that little boy's attack and they are no longer a problem for us.

As he said this, Dargin raised his hand upwards and began to release his red-black magic power.

The attack is coming, and at the same time I shuddered at the chill I could feel from his magical power.

"What is that?

No, I know.

That reddish-black glowing evil magic I have seen!

''No way........''

That's not all.

The appearance of Dargin and his friends was changing in a flash.

The color of their skin is turning reddish-black, bat-like wings are tearing through their clothes from their backs, and horns are sprouting from their heads.

What's going on! What the hell is that figure of theirs?

That's the captain...?

Both enemies and allies are confused by the sudden change in their appearance, not knowing what is going on.

There's no doubt about it, I know who they are!

It's a demon!

"Wicked? That legendary!

The old man in Baquin screams in surprise when he is told that Dargin and the others are witches.

I know, I know, I had the same reaction when I first learned of it.

"Everybody back off! Those guys are in real trouble!

""Ugh, wow!"

Not only our allies, but also the enemy warriors hurriedly moved away from the demons.

It's the right thing to do. They're not afraid to throw out magic even when you're there.

But what do we do? I didn't think a genie was going to show up here.

I don't care if you're with your brother, I'm not going to be able to take on these two alone.

Chuckle, you look surprised.

That's understandable. It's understandable, since it's been several hundred years since humans have seen us. I'd like to commend them for seeing us and recognizing us as demons.

Our commander is a witch?

What's going on? Can someone tell me what to do?

I wouldn't understand!

Suddenly their own captain became a demon, and the enemy was upset.

Apparently they didn't know that their companion's identity was a demon.

Then, once again...................I won't die!

The other half of the demonesses are attacking me like they're going to explode.

It's not a good idea.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.

What?

I'm sure you're not going to be able to find a way to make it work.

Hehehe, are you surprised! My brother didn't train me, man!

Yeah!

I pop the opponent's weapon that I've received and slam a series of rushes with the sword in one hand.

The flames that erupted from the sword pommel head with high output increased the power and speed of the thrust.

Furthermore, immediately after the thrust, flames erupt from the tip of the blade and immediately bring the arm back.

By doing this in succession, I can deliver an infinite number of high-speed thrusts without tiring my arms.

I call it the Flame-Rush!

Well, it was my brother who thought of it.

The demon who can't keep up with my speed gets a few thrusts and makes blood gush out of his body.

Hmmm, this attack, although it's fast, it's not as easy to aim for.

My brother kept thrusting at the exact same spot more than twice as fast as me, though...

Nuh-uh!

Oops.

I was just about to finish off the demon, when Dargin got in the way.

"Dardzin, that boy has some skills.

I didn't expect you to have such a good commander in place. As expected of the Dragon Emperor.

Ah, they've got it all wrong.

Hey, you guys! Don't use a potion!

It's all healed.

d*mn, so mages use potions too?

I've been told that the magician who fought in the S-ranked request that my brothers received was also using magic items or something.

I'm sure he's reasonably confident in his skills, but how long will he last against the two of us?

Dulzin and his team split into two groups and attacked me from the left and right.

I'm not going to be able to get the best out of them.

I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this in the future.

How long can you keep it up?

I could get away with it if I was alone, but with two demons on my side, it's going to be a tough job....

Oh, well, that's two against two with the other one.

That's when it happened.

Suddenly a familiar voice echoed in the wilderness, and suddenly a wall of fire blew up around me.

''Whoa!''

The demons' startled voices rise from the other side of the wall.

''That was a close one, Gyro.''

When I turned to the voice, naturally, there was a familiar figure there.

"Oh, you! Why?!

The person who was there was my friend Mina.

We thought you were a runaway and that you were sulking. Well, I didn't expect this to happen.

I'm not a runaway! I was just going to go train for a bit!

'Yes, yes, by the way, I don't really understand it, but we can take it down anyway, right? That's a witch, right?

As if my protestations weren't heard, Mina glares at the demon as she looks at him.

It's a light tone, but Mina's face is serious. She is seriously wary of these guys.

The best thing about this is the fact that you can't get away with it.

Then you're my enemy. So help yourself.

This guy is so quick to switch, or rather, to judge the situation.

''Ladies and gentlemen, we'll take care of that demon, so you all take care of the other enemies!

Okay, okay!

Under Mina's direction, Bakin's males leave us and go to deal with the enemy warriors.

The fact that they're also shocked to learn that their companions are demons makes them slow to move.

Then let's go, Jairo!

"Don't tell me what to do! I was the one who was fighting you!

Well, you know what to do, Leader.

Hey!

Heh, heh, heh, heh... heh... heh... heh... heh... heh.

I never thought I'd feel so much less defeated just by having an ally come along!
