he dependents of an evil god are monsters that are born from the power that overflows from the evil god. There are two types of birth: natural and artificial, and this time it is definitely the latter.

"Haa...... haa!"

The first is to suppress one's fighting spirit and calmly look at the enemy.  

The first appearance of the dependents is at the end of the early part of the story. At that time, Arthur and his friends were the strongest of their generation, and were considerably stronger than all previous generations.

Even in such a state, they would have a hard time with the " retainer," so it would be too early for a challenge for me to take on the challenge.

They are usually inferior. If I made even the slightest mistake, they would kill me instantly.

 But--

"I see."

If one were to predict future, there is no one better suited for the job. If I'm good enough to be bounced back by the household, there's no way I'm going to make it in the future.

 Argiano will be looking for me to either win as a matter of course, or grow up here and now if I can't win.

 Fine. I will prove that the three years I've spent in this world haven't been in vain.

As I held up my spear with a boiling battle spirit, the presence emitted from my dependents swelled up in response.

 --It's coming.

『■!』

The army of the servants runs at a speed unimaginable from their slow and heavy armored appearance. The ground they kicked at, the earth that bounced off them fell before they could reach the ground, and in time it was overtaken. After a moment, a jet-black sword was swung out in front of me.

The approach left the soldiers around me behind, but I, who am used to seeing Schneizel's speed range, caught it.

Aiming to create an opening by clicking the weapon up, I swung the spear sharply from the lower level - there was a slurp and a sickening response, and the spear was severed in mid-stride.

 The sword's speed remains unabated as death closes in around my neck.

First!

Quickly, I tilted my head to avoid the fatal blow, and furthermore, I invoked the wind attribute magic. Exposing myself to the blast, I gain time by being blown away.

The typhoon-like wind makes my vision spin dizzyingly. Even so, I managed to adjust my stance, softly used my knees to kill the impact of the landing, and was finally able to calm down. Then I immediately look back at them...

 --A slash.

 A flash of death that loomed in my field of vision. The retainer, who had predicted where I would land, had swung the sword ahead at me.

They're going to hunt for my landing, and they're going to target me right after I used the wind attribute magic!

I am using both Haiyan's original sorcery and body enhancement, and the sorcery I can handle is limited to one additional one. Furthermore, I can't fire them in rapid succession like I can in ordinary times. This is because the majority of my capacity is allocated to the maintenance of the first two magics.

Therefore, this situation was a critical one, where I could not use magic while on the landing, which would cripple me in every way.

 What am I going to do now?

'What ?"

 I couldn't be bothered.

 If magic was not an option, I would have to use my spear. A spear is still a spear, even if it's broken in half. If I think of it as a short spear, that alone gives me countless options.

The training that has been built up so far, one of the martial arts that has become ingrained in the body, is being output.

With full force, I deactivate my body and hold the spear softly and gently. It is a half-stance and powerless stance to receive. The "Kai" is a very powerful weapon, but it can easily be crushed by the monster power of the dependents,

But the other side of the spear is still intact.

'Thank you."

Not opposing the direction of the pressure that is trying to knock me down, I turn my body while parrying it at a sharp angle. Then, while maintaining the force with which force is passed off, making a single turn, he unleashes a counterattack that adds speed and centrifugal force to the enemy's power. 

『■!?』

 A solid response. The armor is slightly shattered inside the jet-black aura.

I can feel the enemy's astonishment. However, it seems that there is almost no damage. What they feel is not pain, but pure surprise at having been hit by a inferior opponent.

Even if I add centrifugal force to the power of the enemy and myself, a graze wound is the best I can do.

 After all, fighting with him would be a disadvantage.

Immediately after the counter, I kicked the armor with the last of my strength. This was not an attack, but a reactionary move to gain distance.

This time, there was no follow-up attack, and I finally managed to settle down a little further away.

"Ha, ha, ha."

 This is not good.

The simultaneous activation of Haiyan's original sorcery and body reinforcement alone is putting an intense strain on the entire body, and perhaps because of the further activation of sorcery, the body is already complaining of a disorder.

Extreme combat is mentally difficult, and it is unlikely that I will be able to fight for an extended period of time.

I hope that the slight damage to his armor has brought the opponent closer to a corner, too...

"......"

The aura that covers the entire body of the dependents becomes bloated and concentrates on the damaged parts. The sound of scorching was heard and the defect was repaired.

I knew it.

This is the trouble with these guys, which is the same for the evil god.

 Whether you blow off their heads, pierce them where the human heart is located, or make them lose their weapons, they will regenerate the next moment as if nothing had happened.

The only way to silence them is to keep trying to kill them until they run out of their inexhaustible regenerative power.

Ha, I'm already starting to get tired, but you're not even close?

 ......Kahn.

 There was a high-pitched sound, and the half of the spear that had just been cut off finally fell.

 Only a few seconds had passed since then. It was hard to believe.

 And then--

"■■■!"

......

■■■■■

Several new dependents were created in the vicinity. All of them are in armor with a black aura. In other words, they have the same strength as this one.

"Huh."

Fortunately for me , the newcomers seem to be aiming their killing intent at the soldiers around me, but the ...... situation is worse than before.

"Huh."

 The newcomers are not so leisurely to wait for Schneizel's arrival. It's not like I'm going to get anything in this world if I'm looking for someone else's help.

 I am going to help Crescencia, right? If that's the case, then at leastI need easily overcome the threats that Argiano has prepared for me right now.

"Huh. ......"

 I exhale shallowly and relax. Solidity is an impurity in my fighting style, mixed with feint.

『■』

 The huge jet-black shadow looms again. The big armored figure, so big that it looks up at me, uses its physique to unleash a large swinging blow.

If taken seriously, the spear will be lost again. I understood from the previous attack and defense that losing a weapon at that speed would be very bad.

 Then step in, don't be afraid.

"!"

The slash, which would have been fatal not only by a direct hit but also by just a glancing blow, is evaded only by footwork. The sword passed so close that the wind pressure shook my bangs right under my nose.

Then, after the attack, I thrust my spear with all my might into the torso part of the armor, exposing a gap...

"■■■......"

The dependents, by holding their bodies at an angle, parried my spear with their torso. I, who was emptied of all my power, also lost my stance. Now both of us are in the gap. The one who will be the first to return will be the better one,

I suppose so.

The other one, with his out-of-this-world physical abilities, forced himself to recover his upper body, and at the same time, he swung his sword. The aim is naturally me. The slash draws a trajectory that bounces off the neck.

ЭStupid."

So I mercilessly turned the feet of the dependents into muddy ground. While looking off the slash that had been loosened by being taken off the axis foot, I solidified the muddiness with each of the enemy's feet. A moment later, I pulled it out with a cracking sound, but that slight stall was enough.

The distance was taken with Hyann's original sorcery and super-speed movement by means of body reinforcement. And then,

"O, laaaaah!!!"

The feeling of losing all of my magic power. The blue electricity in my body bursts out. The power is concentrated so much that the air is distorted right above the dependents, and it pours down with an ear-splitting roar.

 The brilliance lasted only a moment. The blue-white lightning that burned into my vision was as thick as a large tree.

 The ground hit by the lightning burst into pieces, and a cloud of dust that spread over the area obscured the household members.

 I would have been grateful if they would have fallen because of this, but, well, I am not that optimistic.

 The smoke was dispersed by wind magic. The dependents in it still retained a horrifying presence, even as the right half of their armor dissolved.

Then, ignoring all the heat, destruction, and surrounding dust mixed in by the explosion, they let the deficiency be repaired along with the scene as if it were regenerating in reverse.

How many more times do I have to kill them before it's over?

 Endure, me. It's an endurance battle until I kill and kill and kill. It's the one with a lot of physical and magical power, right? I've been training all this time, haven't I?

"Huh. Oh, shit. Oh, God!"

Oh, that's all right! I have a grudge against you guys, the cause of Cress' death!

 I'm going to need you to relieve my stress, you son of a bitch. And there are ways of fighting that can only be tried out with a strong opponent like this.

This is a training ground that just came into existence. I'm going to try everything I can and take full advantage of your presence.

『■!!』

"Shut up!"

 I'm going to try everything I can to use this existence of yours to the fullest.
