Isekai Maou to Shoukan Shoujo Dorei Majutsu

An old man’s face was floating, and shouted something. Something like that didn’t matter.

However, what was displayed next was......

「Rem!?」

There was movement in the two Magimatic Sols that he was confronting.

『Rikka-san, chase after the 《young vessel girl》! I’m enough for this place!』

『Got it! Be careful, Eleena!』

The White Biyatonos ran to the town.

For a Magimatic Sol, jumping over the outer wall was no trouble at all.

Diablo tried to obstruct it with magic.

However, as if to interfere with his aria, sorcery arrows poured down on him.

『I will be your opponent!』

「Do not get in my way!」

『Same goes to you!』

Flashy explosions occurred.

Was that around the communication bridge that went from the First District to the Twelfth District?

Pillars of fire were erected.

Diablo had no information.

However, there was no mistaking that extraordinary people were fighting over there.

At the edge of the image that displayed Rem in the sky, a small glimpse of the figure of a red haired State Knight was displayed.

──Is that Alicia!?

He didn’t think that she would be enough fighting power to be a Magimatic Sol’s opponent.

Rem was running about trying to escape.

Before long, the White Biyatonos would find her.

From the Gelmedo Empire’s perspective, things were probably going as expected.

The Red Brix that he was confronting didn’t make any unreasonable attacks. Even if it didn’t defeat Diablo, the 《young vessel girl》 would be captured before long. They would probably breakthrough to the Church from another direction as well.

Diablo lowered his Magic Staff.

「......」

『Ara, have you given up? Did you sense that you can’t win against the Empire?』

Eleena spoke with a tone of pity.

She purposely did not try to attack at this moment.

They were by no means scoundrels.

──But even so, I need to kill them.

「I was......mistaken.」

The whole time, he was running away from the fight in his mind.

He didn’t want to fight against people of the Races.

He hated war. While he was half-heartedly fighting, wouldn’t things end somehow or another, is what he was expecting.

He might have been afraid of himself becoming a murderer.

The Demon King thing was an act.

Since no one would actually die in the game, he was able to enjoy heinous speech and conduct.

──It wasn’t like, I want to become a true true villain!

But, due to that naivete, Rem was.

The white Magimatic Sol approached her.

He didn’t want to kill.

Committing an ethical taboo, pained his conscious.

It was scary.

He felt that he wanted to be a virtuous person at any moment in time.

I can’t protect my precious ones, being like that!

Diablo tightly grasped his Magic Staff, the 《Staff of Tenma》.

He took out three potion vials from the pouch at the back of his waist.

He drank them up in one go.

MP Recovery, HP Recovery, Parameter Increase!

His blood welled up.

Contrary to the enhancement of his fighting spirit, his thoughts drastically cooled down, and he thought about nothing but the battle.

Eleena raised a puzzled voice from the change in his atmosphere.

『Do you still plan on fighting? I’ll say this now but you can’t win against me!』

「Up until now, it was there.」

『Un?』

「Whenever I saw a flirting couple......in front of me......I felt like I didn’t care. Without thinking about anything unnecessary, I was able to immerse myself in only the fight.」

『Th, that is just jealousy.』

「Who knows? But, right now......it’s different. It’s now different. It’s because I was mistaken.」

『......Y, you.』

The Red Brix readied its Sorcery Bow.

Diablo also held his staff aloft.

「I......with my own will......for my own sake, will kill. All of you, with the greatest efficiency!」

『That’s only natural! This is a battlefield after all!』

Eleena fired a shot.

Diablo evaded it, and fired magic.

「《Lightning Arrow》!!」

Several shots of shining bullets of light were sent flying.

It was magic that didn’t have much firepower behind it. Even if it were to hit the Magimatic Sol, it would probably be at the level of scorching the surface of its armor.

That magic made hits on the ordinary soldiers of the Gelmedo Empire.

Even though they had sorcery device protectors, they were unable to defend against Diablo’s attack.

Numerous screams were raised.

The Red Brix raised an astonished voice.

『Everyone!? You......what is the meaning of th......!?』

For an instant, she turned her attention to the ordinary soldiers.

That was enough.

Diablo used the rushing-type Martial Art 《Sword Smite III》.

He filled the distance to the point that his hands could reach.

「Every time a stray bullet flew, your attention was distracted. Since you are being protected by sturdy armor, you became negligent with the basics.」

『What’re you saying!?』

Brix used the Sorcery Bow like a sword, and made a side sweep.

Before it was complete, Diablo touched the opponent’s head.

「《Light》」

『Hya!? What!? What was that!?』

It was merely Light Magic.

He used that on the Magimatic Sol’s eyes──it was the part that was a camera lens on a robot.

Since the lens emitted light, her vision was probably pure white.

It wasn’t like he was idly fighting for so long.

He was sounding out the Magimatic Sol’s mechanisms and limits.

「The eyes are only on the head. And then, the enemy can’t fight unless they can see.」

『I, can still fight!』

The red Magimatic Sol opened up its chest.

What was riding it, was a child. She really resembled the character that appeared in the game. She was a girl that had an unyielding spirit, was elegant, and would occasionally become teary eyed when she made blunders.

──Eleena Luforia.

She was mostly naked, and was buried in questionable tentacles.

Actually confronting her shook his resolution, but Diablo crammed his hesitation down to the bottom of his heart.

「You damned fool, to show your face like that! 《Flare Burst》!!」

「Kuuuugh」

If he were to make a direct hit on the part where the armor was opened up, the Magimatic Sol’s high Magic Defense would mean nothing.

She used the right arm as a shield, and defended against the attack.

Since the Sorcery Bow was held in the left hand, she used the right arm.

Right down to how she would defend against the attack, everything went just as Diablo predicted.

*Zuki......*, his chest hurt.

However, he couldn’t be held up here any longer than this.

「This is the end.」

「Eh?」

Not knowing the meaning of what he said, Eleena made a puzzled face.

On the right arm that she used as a shield──on the inner side of the right arm of her own Magimatic Sol, she found the radiance of magical power.

「......No way.」

When Diablo got close, he used 《Light》 on the opponent’s eyes.

And then, he used one more magic spell.

On the right arm that was held in front of the opened chest.

From the inner side, which faced the operator──the magic that was planted was invoked.

「It’s a 《Burst Mine》. It explode on touch......or, after a time limit.」

The magic’s flames made a direct hit on the inside of the Red Brix.

「No......!!」

Her final words, were drowned out in the middle by the sound of the explosion.

Tentacles scattered about.

Such a sturdy Magimatic Sol, had flames rise from the crevices of its sturdy shell, and powerlessly collapsed.

The soldiers of both sides raised a commotion.

Diablo gazed at the unmoving Magimatic Sol’s──cockpit, and gulped.

However, he couldn’t just stand around and stare. He broke into a run into the town.

──Please be safe, Rem!
