CH 52

Chapter title: Scummy Demon

「Damn you! You’re the Spirit Queen! I wouldn’t have run away if you had reported your power to me! You’ve used the Spirit Queen’s power to fight off the Arc Demon anyway! You’re so high and mighty!」

Kuzmigo, his head pressed against the carpet by the knight, glared at me as if he were about to curse me.

「Shut up. Master is the strongest. He doesn’t deserve to be complained about by someone like you.」

Marie speaks back on my behalf. When she came to my side, she turned around and hit him.

「Owwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! Y, you little shit!」

Kuzmigo turned red and got angry at Marie’s attitude.

「Well, whatever it is, it’s all good now.」

A woman comes up to me, cowering her shoulders.

「Alicia. Who is this?」

She looked strangely familiar, so I asked her who this woman was.

「It’s Princess Alice of the Kingdom of Ilkut.」

「Eh? You’re kidding, right? Because…」

This reminds me of the commotion at the fountain the other day.

I wielded my sword against Alice and defeated her. In fact, I even saw her dressed in a way that I shouldn’t have because her clothes were soaked and transparent.

「Elt-kun. Can I talk to you later?」

「Yeah…. Sure.」

Alice-sama had a big smile on her face. Why is this?

「Alice-sama, I’m gonna be the one to talk to Elt. I finally met him again…. I’m not letting him go now.」

Alicia then put her hand around my back and hugged me tightly. Looking down at Alicia’s head, I was relieved by the nostalgic smell, and…………

「Master, be careful!」

「Eh?」

There’s a bad aura coming in front of me.

「What the hell is this?」

「Hey! Stop resisting!」

「Damn, a black aura is spewint out from me…. GuaaaaaaAAA!」

The knights are blown away, and Kuzmigo stands up.

「Fufufu, I don’t know why, but I’m getting power. Like it’s responding to my anger…..」

「That’s not good! The transformation has begun!」

Marie’s tense voice said.

「Gogokakaka! I have you, Elt! Gufufufufufu gagaGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!」

When Kuzmigo turned away, something changed in his body. He was trying to break through something from the inside.

「Transformation? What is that?」

「High-ranking demons have an evil aura. A person who is exposed to this aura and has the right qualities can be reborn as a demon.」

「What… Then Kuzmigo is…..?」

The king looked astonished.

「He’s transforming into a demon right now.」

The people around me grabbed their swords and became alarmed.

I took Alicia on my back and….

「Take care of Alicia.」

I leave her to Alica.

「N, no! Don’t go away!」

Alicia extends her hand in concern. Thinking back, she always tried to protect me like that.

I smiled and……

「It’s okay. I’m not going to let Alicia protect me forever. I’ll come back safe and sound.」

「Alicia, he’s strong, he’ll be fine. Let’s wait and trust him.」

She looked back and forth between me and Alice, and…..

「Okay, I belive you!」

「Kukukukuku. It looks like it’s over. Prepare yourself, Elt!」

The transformation seemed to be over, and there was a demonized Kuzmigo in front of me.

「He’s a high demon. With normal human wickedness they would start as a Lesser Demon or Demon. Apparently Kuzmigo is very wicked.」

「Are you happy to be like this?」

I asked as I held up my sword.

「Kukukuku. I’ll kill you, you stupid human!」

Kuzmigo approaches me step by step.

「Hey, kiddo! Get away from him!」

「We’re dealing with a high demon! We’ve got to ambush him all at once!」

The knights are in a hurry.

「It’s impossible. I will give punishment now. I’ll kill everyone.」

It seems that the Kuzumig has already lost its intelligence and is only motivated by resentment towards me.

「Don’t! The magic squad won’t make it! We’re coming in close!」

The strength of a high demon is equivalent to that of several knights. Half of its body is made up of magic, so magic is effective. While remembering such information, I…….

「I see――」

「「「「「Wh?」」」」」

While everyone in the room was surprised….

「――You need to die.」

I swung my divine sword, Volmunk, dozens of times at high speed.

「Ah?」

Kuzmigo the High Demon crumbled into pieces.
