Shitara Slime Datta Ken (WN)
Leon vs. Yuuki [2]

The battle between Leon and Yuuki begins.

The air flickered with light, and the ground shattered from the shock.

Even Chloe who did not move was affected by the shock. Kagali who was hiding behind Chloe, lowered her head and opened her eyes wide.

「Time, time out! What the hell is going on here!? 」

It was a high-speed battle, too fast for Kagali to see it, she could only see its tracks.

Which side benefits more? The result is unknown.

「At a glance, the situation looks balanced. However...”.

“–but?”

「I see that Leon Onii-chan still holds the advantage and has led the situation as he wanted.」

I'm not very good at analyzing, Chloe spoke while thinking that, as they watched the fight.

「Haa? It's a little hazy. Which side will win? 」

Chloe was silent for a moment,

「If the conditions remain as they are now, Leon Onii-chan will win」

He stated.

「Hmm. Bodo time. Although I will declare something as well, Yuuki-sama will not be defeated. Definitely.”

Kagali forcefully made a statement.

Chloe glanced at Kagali and did not deny or justify her statement.

The Black Knight Claude did not say anything and put his raised hand down. Claude, who was badly injured by Leon's punch, is now fully recovered. He was amazed that even the black armor was fully restored.

Gently placing her finger over Claude's wide-eyed lips, Chloe slightly shook her head. Only with that did she expel Claude from her mind and Chloe put her focus back on fighting Leon and Yuuki.

Black Knight Claude stood beside Chloe without saying anything.

「Hey, can you see the fight between the two?」

Kagali asked Claude who had stood up.

However, Claude only replied with a nod instead of words.

「Tch. You seem terrible enough to be able to follow such a fight with your eyes.

Its alright. In any case, this will be a victory for Yuuki-sama, You must ensure the victory of your new master as well. 」

After saying that, Kagali sat on a comfortable rock with an uninterested expression.

Of course, she sat down at the place where Chloe could still act as a barrier and protect her.

Their battle level was far above what he could feel, and Kagali did not even have the slightest bit of experience necessary to comprehend the fight. Moreover, this girl fully believed in Yuuki's victory, so she had no interest in watching the battle.

Claude, unlike Kagali, was still confused by his current situation.

However, after being warned by Chloe, she did not dare to foolishly reveal her current state. In fact, her consciousness, thanks to Chloe, has returned to her by remaining loyal to Leon.

Chloe's ability is not to recover. Its true nature is rewinding time.

He replayed the time to make it so that the situation where Yuuki did the Overwriting never happened. Without changing the time of the environment, it is possible to use the ability to affect only a certain number of people.

This ability is the highest power. It is not limited to remove the damage, but even the abnormal status of ―― in other words, fatigue or even death―― will become nonexistent.

However, it is unfortunate that the Red Resurrection is not possible. Since Yuuki was using his usurping ability, there was no way to interfere.

Although it was an absolute power, it was not almighty.

Chloe knows that well. Moreover, he had just obtained an ability and could not use it completely.

His desire to revive the Red Knight was hard to fulfill.

No one would punish him, yet he looked towards the Red Knight with a sad expression.

There was nothing he could do, as he could not move without permission.

Sighing, Chloe focused on the fight.

Leon and Yuuki. The battle between the two has just begun.

However, as Chloe's eyes focused, she clearly saw that the state of the fight had changed greatly.

Yuuki felt deep regret for his wrong impression.

He underestimated his opponent.

ADVERTISMENTS

SCROLL TO RESUME CONTENT

Leon Cromwell, a newcomer Demon Lord.

A former Human, Demon King who defeated Kagali \= Kazaream.

Since Kagali was too weak, it could be said that she predicted Leon's strength was low.

Fortunately, thanks to the fact that the Supreme Skill had awakened within him, he was able to continue fighting. He was sure that if he did not acquire the skill, he would have already been defeated.

(Or rather, I don't think that he's this strong)

He kept thinking of fending off the blow from the light released towards him.

He could feel his energy dwindling in large numbers while warding off attacks. If this situation continued, his defeat was only a matter of time.

Yuuki's ability to specialize in stealing things. Its main use is to take out enemy energy. With this ability, he could recover his strength while attacking, so normally this ability could be called omnipotent in both attack and defense.

That's what happens when the opponent is not Leon.

Leon's ability attribute is Light \= Purification. This attribute specialized in purifying demons, in other words, it was an ability suitable for a Hero.

Since this person was the Demon King, Yuuki felt that the ironic situation was a big joke.

Although there was no point in complaining, the abilities Yuuki obtained were part of the demon series [1], meaning it had a demonic attribute [2]. Every time he attacked, he received purification, meaning he received damage.

Much of the energy he stole had been purified. Moreover, he could not dodge the opponent's attack and he could not help but notice the massive damage he received at each meeting.

(It's not good, is it? I will lose if this situation continues.)

He thought about his next plan optimistically.

In the worst case scenario, he could implicate Chloe. But he wants to avoid that. It would be difficult to lead the world to destruction if he did that.

Simple reason. It was impossible for him to defeat the strongest entities in this world known as Guy Crimson and Milim Nava.

And Rimuru too.

Yuuki's intuition told him that the Slime he met was a disorder. His growth speed was abnormal, and his gaze was impenetrable. The gaze felt uncomfortable, so he judged that it was impossible to ignore Rimuru.

(—I never thought that Rimuru-san could see my true nature .. Still, I felt that it would be dangerous if I did not get rid of that person immediately.)

For such a thing, it is better to use Chloe.

Two strong men and one dangerous man.

Yuuki judged Milim to be someone who could be easily tricked. Therefore, the real problem was Guy and Rimuru.

Yuuki feels uncomfortable leaving Guy as Chloe's only opponent. Therefore he will get rid of Rimuru.

After that, she will make Chloe fight Guy, it is a plan to get rid of both of them at the same time.

Looks like it will be hard to defeat Rimuru later if she uses Chloe now.

Feeling such a premonition, Yuuki did not give any orders to Chloe.

Well, then, what does he need to do now?

The best thing he can do in the contract he made with Chloe is for her not to interfere with Yuuki's decision. But that is not a problem for small orders. Chloe might be a kind person, so if she asks for it, she might listen.

But retreating from here was still impossible even if he protected Yuuki and the others.

(If Rimuru and Ruminas were to come, it would go as planned ..)

Yuuki sighed and decided to throw away his doubts and use his trump card.

He regrets having misunderstood Leon's powers, and after he runs away he needs to reflect on this. He had to make a decision immediately, as his overwhelming defeat was no joke.

「Haha, Leon. Ii'm Sorry. I underestimated you too much.

Therefore, I have decided to use my trump card! 」

「Fu, do as you like. That's not gonna be useful. 」

「After putting up such a bluff, please don't say anything cowardly, okay?」

Yuuki activated the combined ability of 『Summoner』 and his Ultimate Skill 『Avaricious King Mammon』, and an enormous magic circle began to appear on the ground. Inside that circle were many corpses consisting of subordinates Yuuki and the Red Knight. Their bodies began to grow and become lumps of flesh. Then an evil object wriggling out of Yuuki's magic circle mixed with a lump of meat …

It roared furiously.

In the past, the originator of the dragon race, “Star King Dragon Veldanava,” has given his daughter a dragon as a guardian (pet) [3].

Dragons that had great power had fallen into a trap and were killed by a certain kingdom.

When the girl, her master, evolved, her body was transformed into a chaos dragon, filled with evil forces.

Unfortunately, he has no soul, making him transcend the boundaries of good and evil into an incarnation of destruction.

It is said that the girl, grieving for her miserable fate, sealed the dragon in a place no one would find.

However, after many years and months had passed, poison [4] was released from his body, flowing into the surrounding realm.

Naturally, the Freedom Association received a request to investigate the cause of the evil poison.

「Wake up, Dragon Chaos! Your true master is Me! 」

Using the awakened dragon, he would get rid of the chasing Demon King.

In his original plan, he would escape when the dragon went berserk.

But now it's different. Currently, using the Ultimate Skill 『Greedy King Mammon』, the Chaos Dragon master is Yuuki.

The Chaos Dragon that had just awakened, released tremendous pressure, and absorbed the magic power around it to build up its own strength.

As a direct descendant of the dragon race, its total length exceeded 20m.

Right now, the strongest dragon moved as Yuuki wished.

The miasmic roar and breath it spewed damaged the rocky surface and the arbor, from the hillside to the summit, shattered.

This is the ability of Chaos Dragon, Chaotic Breath.

Yuuki showed a proud smile and Kagali turned pale.

Though invisible in Claude's expression, it seemed like he believed in his master Leon.

Chloe clenched her fists. If by chance Leon was defeated, he decided he would destroy the Dragon of Chaos with his own hands.

“Ha ha ha! What do you think? It's something you can't handle easily.

Right now, if you swear allegiance to Me, I'll gladly make you My friend, how does that sound? 」

Leon laughed at Yuuki's proposal.

He had predicted this development. Moreover, he did not obstruct the summoning.

That's because…

「As expected, it is Chaos Dragon――.

You fool, in order to revive the revenant from ancient times, do you want to bring forth the wrath of Dragon Princess Milim?

It will be delivered to Milim as soon as I disconnect the soul connection.

“....I saw. You realize it and don't let Me do what I like.

Even so, weren't you dead before Milim arrived? 」

「Fufu, do you want to try and see?」

Removing his expression, Yuuki gave the order to the Dragon of Chaos.

Kill the enemy before you!

The Dragon of Chaos must be powerful. His strength is second only to “Naga” Type and seems to reign as the strongest monster that appears in nature.

However, this mindless monster did not possess any wisdom. It was an incarnation of violence that raged and attacked for no reason.

If the previous Demon King had not awakened, it might have surpassed them with brutal strength and incredible energy. Yet…

Leon was a genius, let alone his attribute was Light \= Purification.

Its existence was such that it could be called the natural enemy of the Chaos Dragon.

「I'll say it one more time. You underestimate me.

The reason I deliberately gave you time for the summoning was to point out the difference between our strength and what you have done today, in this place, is fruitless.

I'll show you some of my power! 」

Leon was wrapped in a golden light as he spoke.

Golden Wings, built with pure light energy, appeared on his back.

Its wings resembled the wings of the angel race, but in reality its wings were streams of light itself.

And, he held the Flame Pillar (Holy Flame Rapier) [5], which materialized in his right hand.

It was a Rapier class (God) [6] Myth, the strongest sword Leon had. A beautiful bluish-white flame pattern stood out on its thin and flexible blade.

Leon held the Golden Circle (Golden Round Shield) [7] in his left hand and the rapier in his right.

It was a legend-grade shield as well as armor, but it had high defensive abilities as it was mixed with the Sacred Aura of Leon. In reality, the shield could suppress the damage from the demon attribute attack by reducing it by half with refining.

Fully armed, Leon glanced at Yuuki who lost his smile and then turned his gaze to Chaos Dragon as if he had lost interest in Yuuki.

Then,

「Looks like I'd cause Milim hostility if I killed you. Since that's the case, I'll just make you fall asleep again!

Holy Spirit, fly! Triangle Pyramid (Devil Sealing Barrier Holy Tetrahedron) [8] !! 」

The small tetrahedron with four pillars made of crystallized spirits grew large and in accordance with Leon's wishes, it wrapped around the Dragon of Chaos.

This was the strongest holy attribute barrier that surpassed even the Sacred Field.

The barrier that Leon had built was given [effect : immortality], where the captured person was locked up. It was a high grade sealing technique that rivaled 『Infinite Prison』. No, the effect can even surpass 『Infinite Jail』 if the target has demonic attributes.

With this barrier in place, Leon might be able to win against Guy just once. Of course, if it was Guy, he would instantly sense the danger from the barrier, and not be caught by it. Therefore, not to demean, but the success rate against Guy was only about 1 in 1000 trials.

However, if his target was a mindless monster, he could not defend against this technique.

The poor Chaos Dragon struggles to unseal, but the resistance is futile.

Furthermore, when the barrier effect was activated, it sucked the magic power from the Chaos Dragon and used it to strengthen the barrier power. If this is the case, the movement is sealed.

It was unlike the life cycle barrier that Milim had set up, no matter how much energy the Chaos Dragon possessed, therefore, it could vanish before 100 years had passed.

In that case, Leon thought that Milim might be able to hate him for this, but if he were to remove the seal and hand it over to Milim then it would be fine. It would be troublesome to infuriate Milim, but that was not something he should be thinking about right now. He changed the barrier setting, so that it would soon be buried underground.

In the end, the Chaos Dragon was sealed back in an instant by Leon.

……

This could not be called a battle, it was an event that symbolized Leon's overwhelming strength.

「Alright, does your trump card end with this? When it's over, it's my turn now. 」

Leon looked at Yuuki and spoke mercilessly.

Leon had fully resolved the situation in his favor and Yuuki's chances of victory could be considered non-existent.

But, uh,

「Ahahahaha! I never thought that the Demon King was amazing, so far!

Honestly, I underestimated it. Even so, I have already taken the source of the dragon's power, I don't need it anymore.

I've recovered the damage I received from you.

Then should I be serious now? 」

Just as Yuuki had said, both of his hands were covered with dragon scales, his body was covered by the same poison that covered Dragon Chaos not too long ago.

It was almost like it had turned into black armor that resembled dragon scales.

Leon recalled the buried barrier to himself,

“You bastard!”

He yelled at Yuuki.

The Chaos Dragon became bone, weathered and then shattered.

It was the result of the dragon losing its power. As Yuuki had said, he had snatched it from its core.

With this, Milim's anger! When Leon thinks of it――

「Do you think now is the right time to worry about that?」

Yuuki jumped behind Leon with a speed that was unmatched before.

And give a powerful kick to Leon's back.

Yuuki, who had taken the power of a dragon, had become a Dragon Warrior. He tried harder in the fight,

「Do not be arrogant, you are an insect!」

The golden light was emitted intensely and completely colored the area in a pure white color.

Inside the bursts of light that blinded the eyes of the people was Leon who stood glaring at Yuuki furiously, his body wrapped in white golden armor.

36 pairs of 72 wings once again appeared on his back. They had vanished when he used the barrier earlier, but it materialized again when Leon's nearly infinite holy aura was unleashed.

Light Angel Leon vs Dragon Warrior Yuuki

The fight was resolved in an instant.

Leon, who was burning with anger, sent an intense attack towards Yuuki without giving him a chance to counterattack.

With an elegant piercing speed flowing that was close to the speed of light, the Fire Pillar of Leon made Yuuki's entire body instantly bleed.

The ominous black armor that was the crystallization of the power of the Chaos Dragon shattered into pieces, unable to withstand the sword endowed with the power of purification.

As for the difference in strength, the distance was very far, just like between an adult and a child.

(Damn, not possible. so far.).

Yuuki, sensing his own ego weakening, seemed to disappear.

If this situation continues, it will not be good. If things continue like this, his defeat is certain.

Above everything…….

――So, will it be my turn soon?

(Not yet, I haven't lost!)

Yuuki gathered his lost consciousness, though,

「Didn't I say it would be worth it? You can't even follow my moves 」

Yuuki lost sight of Leon, who was standing in front of him, and his left arm was cut off by Leon's Fire Pillar and thrown away.

The acute pain attacked Yuuki, and the control over his strength had already become unstable.

He fell to the ground and squatted. His severed arm stopped bleeding, and he glared at Leon hovering above him, looking at him.

The result is determined. Yuuki seems to have misunderstood Leon's incredible strength.

The difference between the power he took from the ancient dragon, the power of the Chaos Dragon, and the strength of Leon was no good.

It was just as Leon had said, even if he awakened a Supreme Skill, the difference in his abilities was like heaven and earth.

「This is finally」

Just as Leon announces his ultimatum, a multi-layered 3D magic circle forms with Leon in the center and takes Yuuki.

The magic circle continued to radiate and flicker in a luminous color, and then finished in an instant.

「Destroying,” Sacred Damage (Light of Purification of the Holy Spirit Destruction 36th Style) [9] “!」

Flickering lights radiated from 36 pairs of wings.

When the light collides with the layered barrier, it is reflected irregularly and fills the inside of the barrier with light.

It was a wild dance of photons that destroyed the things it touched. It was Leon's greatest and strongest area annihilation ability.

That percentage of destruction within the limited space covered by the barrier was 100%, it was an inevitable technique.

Yuuki who was still crouching on the ground with his severed left arm, his body was mercilessly pierced by the lights.

When the inside of the barrier is filled with light, photons are generated, and that ability ends.

This ability generates energy several thousand times greater than “Disintegration” used Hinatahad, and all objects inside the barrier will be destroyed.

And then, the inside of the barrier was filled with light.

Flash.

As the magic circle disappeared, the lights became quiet.

There was only one person standing on the ground.

However, that person seemed to be unhappy,

「So, she escaped, ya」

He muttered.

So.

Standing on the ground alone was Leon.

Yuuki who had confirmed Leon's overwhelming strength and realized his own defeat, had decided to retreat when his left arm was cut off.

At that moment, he had made full use of his maximum strength and gained quite a bit of time with the Mind Guide.

The perfect opportunity to escape arises when Leon is concentrating on building the barrier.

However, one had to praise Yuuki. His stubbornness was worthy of appreciation, he did not give up until the end of the fight.

But that doesn't change the fact that he ran away. Leon, had promised to cooperate with the two demon lords, and when he thought of the possibility that Milim would turn his anger towards him, he felt depressed.

「Jeez, I have to be more serious.」

It seems that the goal of gaining Chloe's freedom will be delayed a little longer, as Yuuki has escaped

This strategy failed completely.

It could be said that when Yuuki managed to retreat, he strategically won the war. Leon had won the battle but lost the war.

As Leon thought about the future, there was absolutely no sense of victory, and he sighed.
