The hero magician wants to relax. He was too active and targeted for his life, so we'll start o

The final of the martial arts tournament. Even if the answer is no, the audience's enthusiasm grows.

Me and Gulf stand in the middle of a circular arena.

I take the multimace I was carrying out of the back of White Orihalcon's shield. A plan to predict and defeat Gulf's actions, a weapon for that matter.

... Dude, you haven't gotten any more pale in the last thirty minutes, Gulf.

He is a boy of seventeen or eight. I look close, too, but the contents are thirty. I'm a little concerned about your opponent. I really shouldn't be sympathetic, and I'm just concentrating on the battle.

"Rule confirmation in the finals."

The referee will give the final confirmation orally.

"The time limit is five minutes. If you push your opponent's pendant until it flashes red by then, it's a win. Only in the finals, there are no rules of judgment: after five minutes we will pay a new pendant of protection and we will rearrange it."

The referee will alternate between me and Gulf. If that's the rule, you have nothing to say from me. Gulf nodded silently.

"There is no reduction even off-site, but if you enter an audience seat, etc., you will be considered a fugitive and disqualified at that point. Fight only in this duelling ground."

After confirming our agreement, the referee took two steps back.

"So, the finals! Jin Tokitomo, I'd like to start a game of Gulf."

Gulf pulls out his sword, and I'll set myself up. The referee breathed softly.

"Begin!

At the same time as the signal, I jumped back.

As expected, Gulf put a black aura all over his body. And the beast of carnivores, preying, rushed in with the momentum of a shell.

Range Designation, Thunder...... Binding, Madness!

Run an electric shock to a target within three meters of my perimeter. An electric shock as the gulf jumped in rushed up from his feet - an even higher stage of weakness, medium and strength, paralyzing his whole body by the power of madness. Speaking of restraint magic, its power is no less than bad attack magic. The protective pendant changes from blue to yellow at once.

Glad I hid it so far. Binding magic. Range designation was probably not captured by normal binds. Gulf stops moving on the spot, although some magic has been wasted, which would have been totally unexpected.

I weigh up, lift Gulf's gear weight a few times, and exercise gravity-operated magic on his surrounding subjects. Pull to the ground and hang the motion further to seal.... Speaking of gravity-operated magic, I guess since the cylinder dungeon.

Gulf is on his knees on the ground and nodding on the spot. I'm trying to get up, but I'm drawn to the ground like iron stuck to weight gain and magnets, and I can't move.

You must be plain and cheap to see, huh? It would be a very martial arts top-setting final that doesn't seem like a way to fight. But I can't lose, either. I didn't care because I thought you were a threat, did I?

If they attack, we'll be stuffed at that point. Then it means we have to keep them from attacking.

I'm walking over to Gulf. Multimace on the right hand side. Concentrate your magic on its tip. Charge Impact.... I'll finish you off with a blow!

Gulf who can't move. On that head, I shook up my mace and slapped a blow all over my body.

Without a protective pendant, a deadly dozen hits that would probably be dead. Gulf falls on the spot.

I unlock the magic of gravity manipulation. I know I knocked him down, but I still don't know if he won or lost because the pendant is dressed to be sandwiched between Gulf's body and the ground.

Take a distance and observe how things are going. If the game continues, we have to set it up again......

Gulf that doesn't move. If it ends like this, it is too much of a tabernacle.

The audience blurted and said to Gulf, 'Stand up!' The cheer flies.

The referee rushes over. He touched Gulf's body and tried to lift his half, but he was a little difficult with my weight-up. made sure his chest pendant was flashing red repeatedly when he finally leaned back on Gulf's body.

"Winner, Gin Tokitomo!

The whole arena turned. Let go of the praise, rather than what a delicate game it looked like. No way. There's confusion mixed.

There were no flashy tweezers or collisions. By his side, as Gulf jumped, he suddenly fell on all fours on the ground, reflecting as if he had been knocked down as he was. Did you hurt anywhere in your body in previous games, and it would have seemed that way. I can barely see any of the magic of weight and gravity manipulation in the bind system either......

Lost...?

You used your powers, but not your hands or your legs?

Why not?

I don't know.

I'm not the winner's name. If we don't win and get the king some Elf's Secret Medicine, we can't help her!

Oh, my body's heavy. I can't get up. The force, I can't get in.

Will it end like this? If I don't go home, my mother dies... I'm sorry, Mom. Me... me...

'Ah... utterly impudent. I didn't know you could use that power even though you signed with me and gave me the power... Totally, I really don't have a choice, kid.'

... you.

'Which, I'll take my place. Your carelessness will be cleared by me!

The black aura of Gulf, which was about to disappear once, blew up again.

The aura to its poison overflows and the referee escapes the dueling field at once.

What is this? I doubted my eyes.

The game must have been settled. But this aura coming out of Gulf's body... Dark, heavy signs that make you feel chilly. hatred, thoughtlessness, and many other negative emotions. If you touch it for a long time, it will make you feel worse.

Not usual. The people in the audience are also upset by that sight, which is unusual, as well as the dueling ground for that change.

loose, and Gulf rises. No, what was Gulf, is that the right way to say it? While keeping Aura together, she kept her silhouette as a human being. That's a shadow painting in the form of a person. It was no longer more a demon or a demon than a human being.

GAAAAAAAAAA!

Roar. That's exactly the beast. Gulf's body thrives and changes in a shadowy aura. The flesh, which has developed hard, is covered by black body hair. Two horns on his head, plus a tail, are what he said was the 'demon' itself.

... Dude, what the hell is this guy?

I twist my neck. How did Gulf end up looking like a demon? Is this a flow we have to do something about? I can't keep up with too many developments.

'Oh, good. Long time reception meat, exactly what gives me the feeling of being alive!

Gulf - No, what was Gulf, uttered the word. echoed creepy voice.

"Come on, humans. Don't be afraid! Eat the full power of our resurrected Darkness!
