Lord Demon is behind you

Under the splash of transparent crystals that make up the ground, pure black demons emerged from the other end of the pierced floor.He spread the wings on his back, leaped into the air smoothly, and floated there.

Whether it is a head covered in a layer of black mist, or a huge wing, or a metal-like shape-all these brave men are no strangers.The "this" that popped up suddenly is undoubtedly the third form of the Demon King.

"Here I come, brave man."

He was a little out of breath, but his voice sounded relaxed and unstressed, "Sorry for the delay...but just leave it to me."

"you--"

The brave man squeezed out a voice from deep in his throat.

Speaking of which, the two had only been separated for a short while, but for some reason, at this moment, he suddenly felt as if a world apart.This trance even made him forget to continue dodging for a moment.

Fortunately, the knight did not continue chasing him, but immediately turned his gun around, pointing the tip of his spear at the sudden appearance of the Demon King—probably for her, the judgment of hostility there is more advanced.

After being frozen for a moment, the brave man instinctively took the opportunity to leave the knight's attack range.

He reached out and took out the quick-acting potion to clear up the abnormal state on his body, but at the same time his heart was blank.

——By the way, there is this guy...and his companions.As promised before, he finally rushed to the brave man; although the location and the enemy on the opposite side had changed, he still fulfilled the previous agreement.

...It's lucky that he found this place.Even the brave himself couldn't imagine that he would fall from the ninth floor back to the eighth floor. In contrast, looking at himself, he had already dragged down the previous generation of demon kings who were originally enemies. Instead, he doubted the correctness of what he did...?

— What a joke.There must be a limit to being unreliable.Now that the companions have rushed to support, we must continue to fight...

But only this time—no matter how much the heart urged, the body still couldn't act as it wanted.My own will, rationality, and body seemed to be separated: rationality repeatedly urged to cheer up quickly, but the will stubbornly leaned in different directions, while the body was dull and unresponsive.

The current situation reminds the brave man of his condition the next day after he was forced to drink half a barrel of spirits by the eldest lady a few years ago: the whole person seemed to have died once, with a splitting headache, weakness in the limbs, and limpness all over his body Yes, even normal training can't lift your spirits.

The current situation is unexpectedly similar to that time, but the degree is much more serious.

The state of drunkenness is called "hangover", which is the aftermath of excessive alcohol poisoning to the body.So is the current situation the result of something else affecting him?

The brave once again focused his attention on the row of small blue negative buffs.

——The decline in mental state... Could it be the impact of these debuffs?

It wasn't until this point that he finally realized that the follow-up effects of the princess's spiritual spells were probably far more important than he had imagined.

"...the brave?"

Probably seeing him in a daze, the Demon King looked over with concern, "What's the matter, is the injury serious?"

"—oh, no, no."

He hurriedly covered the unhealed blood hole in his chest.

"Well, it's okay, I'll be enough for everything after that. Brave, you can rest at ease——At the same time, let me defeat the stupid witch who hurt you."

Speaking more shameful lines than before, the Demon King stretched out his arms and swirled in the air smoothly.

His pretentious appearance made the brave man uneasy.

This guy, isn't he trying to be brave?

"you……"

"—Are you still alive? The former Demon King."

The knight interrupted him.She propped up the mask again, a strange emotion appeared on that calm face, and the tip of one eyebrow was slightly raised.

"Under the siege and interception of so many monsters, he was able to escape smoothly, and even chased him to this kind of place in this way..."

Anyway, the Demon King's appearance was shocking enough; he probably turned back to the seventh floor, broke the ceiling of the seventh floor, and then flew up.

"Isn't that a matter of course. How could I be killed by that kind of guy so easily?" The black smoke covering the head of the devil trembled a few times, "What do you think of me, a weakling waiting to be slaughtered ?"

This guy……

Obviously lack of breath.

The brave finally found out.Although the Demon King is now in a forced dying state, nothing can be seen from the health value, and he deliberately showed an attitude of ease; but the fact of "lack of vitality" cannot be concealed by deliberately pretending.

Is he injured?The princess must have sent a powerful monster to attack him before. Under such circumstances, he could still break through and come here... His body may have been scarred.

In this form, the Demon King's entire face is shrouded in black mist.The brave man couldn't see his face, so he couldn't make further judgments from his expression or expression.

"No, under that kind of tight attack, with your current poor strength, it is absolutely impossible to retreat completely. ——So that's it, I understand." The knight's peripheral vision turned around on the brave man, "This is the sad part of the so-called male creature. Even if you have run out of oil and magic power, you must show a state of ease in front of your sweetheart... Are you already at the limit now?"

"—Limit? What joke are you talking about?"

The demon king in mid-air waved his hand in a particularly imposing manner.

"Don't compare me with a weak witch like you. Noble and powerful high-ranking demons like me will not give up easily like you! Even for my important hero, I will never waste it here. Do your best. What's more, in this posture, my magic power is inexhaustible. Even if you empty the entire Demon King City's monsters and use them as human shields, my magic power is enough to wipe them out one by one."

"Ah, that's right." The knight's brow eased again, "—as opposed to infinite magic power, is there only 1 point of health and a mandatory zero defense?"

The Demon King sneered disdainfully as an answer.

The knight didn't say anything more, but there was an inevitability in his eyes.

"Then, the former demon king who exposed his hole cards. Are you going to fight me? What a coincidence, when it comes to defensive power, I am also the pinnacle of witches. You can't easily destroy me, but when you release the magic At the same time, my **** will definitely penetrate your fragile body and take your life away. Under the premise that you must lose or die, do you still want to fight with me?"

"Defeat or die? You are so self-confident that there is no basis." The Demon King let out a wild laugh, "Let me use the result to educate you inferior species, what is true strength!"

--etc.Why does he have to provoke the enemy so boldly at this time!

Even if he has always had his own reasons for doing things and is very reliable, but now he is in a bad state that even a brave man can see? !Coupled with the forced near-death of the third form, if they fight like this, the situation will undoubtedly be very bad.

You can't let the fight go on like this.The brave man hurried forward again.

"Wait, Miss Sylvia. This should be my battle, and the duel with the witch is—"

He wanted to stop in front of the skeleton horse and prevent the witch from facing her companions: at least to restrain the enemy and leave room for that guy to prepare for spells.

"Ahhh," the knight had already rested his hand on the face shield, and glanced at him in surprise at this moment, "Your Excellency the Brave, you really did not repent until death. Do you want to stand up and protect your companions? As the physics department, restrain me to avoid the tragic ending of him being killed by me?"

"Insist on guarding your companions at all times... This is indeed the most worthy of the name of the hero. You must think that this is an extremely correct behavior, and feel moved by it in your heart."

"No, I didn't—" Never thought about it that way.

However, the words of rebuttal cannot be easily uttered.The brave man wanted to ignore these harsh comments, but his arm lost strength unconsciously.

Although he still maintained his posture to stand in front of the enemy, and his internal strength supported his will to fight, it quickly collapsed following the opponent's words.

"This is really as usual... a hypocritical performance that fits your style. However, why can't you think clearly: If you didn't cause all this from the beginning, if you caused the disaster of the 'Ten Witches' If it hadn't appeared at all, your companion——wouldn't have fallen into the current situation at all."

"Don't you know? It was you from the beginning to the end that caused him to die."

"...!"

Brave was hit hard by the last sentence.

"Is... because of... me?"

As she said, regardless of the devil or the witch, everyone, all suffering and misfortune, the cause is...

Brave.

If there was no hero, that guy would have completed his mission and returned to the Demon Realm long ago, right?Not at all until now—

"Don't listen to her nonsense, brave man!" The devil's voice came from the other side, "Although I don't know what she is talking about, it seems to be about me, right? What qualifications does she have to comment on my affairs? In short, just don't listen. Already!"

But his voice seemed to come from far, far away, vague and empty.

"Don't you think," on the contrary, the calm voice of the knight in front of him penetrated straight into his mind like magic, "if you didn't exist in this world, all these misfortunes would not be there Will it happen?"

"Shut up! You evil witch, what twisted nonsense are you talking to my brave man!"

The Demon King swung out with one hand, angrily formed dozens of large and small black light balls in front of his eyes, and threw them down in one breath.

The magic light ball containing huge energy collided with the ground and exploded, and the raised dust submerged the figure of the knight.Under the impact of the explosion, the brave man had to take several steps back.

The deafening crackle brought him back to his senses a little.Realizing that the battle had begun, the brave man rushed into the smoke and instinctively launched a skill attack at the position where the knight was just now.

Unexpectedly, his attack fell flat: the knight was no longer there.

Is it...!

The brave man rushed towards the Demon King.With the cover of the smoke, the knight must have moved to a more convenient position to attack.

He should not be allowed near his vulnerable companions.

At least you can't continue to make new mistakes after you have already made mistakes, at least you can't let the devil also...

however……

It's too late.

Simultaneously with the attack, the Demon Lord vibrated his wings and started spiraling.

Moving targets are difficult to lock on, especially for knights who use guns, which are straight-line attack weapons-according to common sense, this should be the case.

However, for a witch who can use large-scale skills, this premise may be wrong.

The knight who rode his horse and came directly below the Demon King held his gun up to the sky, and activated his skill with an unaffected tone.

"Go, 'Demon's Retribution.'"

——With the tip of her spear as the center point, countless dark spears emerged from the air in a circular shape and fired upwards in unison——

In this way, the flying figure penetrated without any suspense.
