Brother of Julius the reincarnated hero. ...... Gaius.

Rivalry, final game.

Gaius was challenging Kazuma, the leader of the Holy Empire, to a single combat.

"Ze ......! Huh ......! Huh ......!"

Gaius used his spiritual equipment to inflict heavy damage on Kazuma.

A cloud of dust covered the field.

"Haa...... haa...... or did you do it,......?"

<<>

Gaius was taking evasive action after receiving a warning from his beloved sword, Musou Saber.

His hair dances with para .......

And then the solid wards behind him are torn apart.

Boh......! 

Finally the sound of ...... came later.

Gaius' eyes could not follow what the enemy had done.

Now ...... and Gaius' blood runs cold.

If it had not been for Saber, he would have been cut in half by now.

"How can you tear ...... a sturdy ward with a single ...... blow?"

The wards on the seats are flashed vertically.

The marks were made as if they had been cut by a sloppy,...... heated blade.

Gaius looks at his enemy ...... Kazuma.

"A spiritual ......!"

There was Kazuma, clad in a spiritual suit.

He was clad in a bright red cloak, and even his hair was dyed with scorching heat.

It was not just his appearance.

Just standing there, he was radiating a heat that scorched the air.

<

Kazuma's sword glints blue.

The blade has become plasma by exceeding a very high heat.

"An absolutely cutting, plasma blade with an ...... impenetrable flame heat ward, you ...... monster!"

A monster not far behind his brother Julius.

This is the reincarnated Kazuma.

"...... that was a brilliant blow."

Kazuma finally opens his mouth.

But his usual cheerfulness is gone.

His expression is one of contrition.

"......It was a really great blow. I want to fight with you for a long time if possible. I wish I could have crossed blades with you, fair and square, and without reservation."

Kazuma glares at Gaius.

He feels a weight as if his whole body is covered with lead.

A desire to kill.

It takes the will to fight out of Gaius.

"I'm sorry, Gaius. I have to ...... kill you."

He means it, Gaius realizes.

Kazuma is really going to kill him without a second thought.

He knows this because he has fought more than his share of enemies, and he has real combat experience.

He's going to kill her. That monster is going to eat you alive .......

"Bad ....... I can't lose because I have a promise to keep!"

I have a promise to my brother and to my teammates and friends.

Gaius braces himself and launches a suicide attack against Kazuma.

Gaius, clad in his spiritual armor, approaches Kazuma with tremendous speed.

But .......

oh oh oh oh oh!

"Geehaw! Gahaha! Gee whiz!"

If he gets close to Gaius, the effect of the robe of flame will cause serious damage to Gaius' body.

"Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

Kazuma strikes a blow when he is frightened.

The power of the attack is all that catches the eye.

But it is also very fast.

Gaius dodges enemy attacks by doing backflips.

The sound is still delayed.

The ground cracked open vertically.

With Saber, the god of swords, he can anticipate what kind of attack his opponent will make with his sword.

......

If Kazuma hadn't used his sword, we wouldn't be able to deal with his current moves at all.

"Nuh! Nun! Nuh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh!"

Kazuma doesn't move an inch.

He repeatedly fires one-hit kill shots.

We barely manage to avoid his slashes.

Even if you want to counterattack, you can't get close to him because of the flame robe he has on.

"Hey, ......!"

He sends a slash from afar.

But the slash from the ice blade disappears without harming Kazuma.

Terrible defensive and offensive power.

Gaius despairs.

"How am I supposed to defeat this ...... thing!"

<<>

Kazuma closes the gap with a single step.

It was not an attack with a wild sword!

"Shima ......!"

Kazuma took a blow with an elbow strike.

"Gahaha ......!"

With terrible physical strength and speed, Gaius was attacked in the abdomen.

He is sent flying backward.

The blow hit him so hard that he felt as if his body had been torn apart.

He is tossed about like a leaf blown by the wind.

He manages to regroup in midair.

But .......

"Sweet ......!"

?

Kazuma was behind us in an instant.

This time he has thrown away his wild sword again.

A fist of steel, with all his might.

Gaius immediately takes a defensive posture.

"Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

Kazuma punches Gaius with his arm.

I thought I was ...... dead.

The blow was so ...... powerful that I thought my body had disappeared.

I didn't even have time to feel the pain.

In an instant he was on the ground and Gaius was looking up at the heavens.

"Gah ...... gah! Gee! Geez!"

I can't breathe.

When I try to breathe, all that escapes from my mouth are sobs and blood.

I can't get any strength into my body.

My healing magic cannot keep up.

You are severely damaged and unable to move.

"Your partner will read your attacks with the sword. So I attacked with blows."

He's not out of breath at all, Kazuma.

On the other hand, Gaius is battered and bruised after only a few attacks.

...... orders of magnitude different.

The enemy was ...... far more monstrous.

I thought I could reach him.

I put on my spiritual armor and thought I was finally on par with the monsters (Julius).

But it was a treat.

There are many strong men out there.

"...... Sorry, Gaius. I'm really, really sorry."

Blood is leaking from Kazuma's mouth.

I understand that this is not the damage Gaius has done.

He is gnashing his teeth in frustration.

"...... you will be a great swordsman. No doubt about it. You could be a better swordsman than me and maybe even Julius."

He thrusts his sword under Gaius' nose.

"I'm sorry, but you'll have to forgive me for killing you here."

He raises his sword.

The blade glows even bluer.

The blade of high heat reaches to the heavens.

So ...... hot that it scorches the air and evaporates the clouds.

"Oh ......, I'm done ......."

Gaius gave up.

It's no use. There's no way he can win this.

Sorry ...... brother .......

Gaius!

At that moment, the voice of my brother-in-law echoed.

Michael stands up and gives Gaius a shout.

His brother-in-law, who should have hated him more than anyone else.

"Don't give up! Don't give up, sir! Get up, get up, get up, get up!"
