I, the Masked Swordsman, started my journey through a Lostbelt.

The demon hound devoured at a speed several times faster than Bagst, and its ever-increasing power forced her to retreat steadily.

He gripped the sword blade with both hands to withstand the heavy pressure of the demon hound.

The knees were bearing the weight of a mountain, and the ground beneath their feet was being crushed and dented by this pressure.

Gradually, cracks appeared in the silver-white armor.

Under the gradual pressure, his left knee began to bend downwards, and he gritted his teeth, wanting to fight back.

"roar--!!"

Another roar that nearly shattered eardrums erupted.

A strong wind howled as it attacked from the side.

"Oh no!!"

Bagst saw another animal foot slapping at her.

She immediately tried to use the sword to defend herself, but the demon hound held her down and she couldn't move.

Bang--!!

Fragments of armor, gleaming with firelight, danced in the air.

Bagst was thrown into the air.

Just before landing, he barely managed to maintain his balance, using his greatsword stuck in the ground to slow the impact as he flew sideways.

"There's no other way... this is the only option!"

Bagst reached for the antennae on his head.

It was only used once in pan-human history, and there would be risks in using it again before it has recovered.

But I can't worry about that now.

Her current responsibility is to protect this land.

"Yaling's tentacles, exposed! Ahh, gurgle ...

Bagst breaks off the antennae of reason that symbolize his head.

Warm, fresh blood flowed down his forehead, wetting his face.

A red tinge appeared in his eyes as he gritted his teeth to suppress the ferocious beast roaring within him.

His entire body was enveloped in crimson flames.

The magical power and its own power are rapidly expanding.

"Perish, you demonic hound! [Blackdog.Galatine] --!!"

It reached a size almost identical to that of the Demon Hound.

Maintaining a sliver of rationality, he gripped the crystallized greatsword formed of magic and slammed it down heavily towards the demon hound with a slashing force.

Boom!

He shouted loudly, and the Thunderflame Sword swept across everything in front of him.

The intense heat of the atmosphere, the finest dust particles, and even the most scorching flames that can extinguish light.

The blade undoubtedly struck the demon hound.

but--

Blood flowed from the demon hound's neck, which had been severed in half.

A crimson magic seemed to emanate from the beast's eyes.

The destructive desire it conveyed showed no signs of abating; on the contrary, the spiritual pressure it released continued to rise.

The sea of ​​soul within the body repairs and heals the injuries.

Bagst posed no threat to it.

"What.....!?"

Bagst had not expected things to turn out this way.

Even though the blade had already cut through it, its unreasonable healing ability restored it to its original state.

thump--!

Bagst, who was suppressing his bestial nature, felt a tremor in his heart.

The flames weakened.

The demonic hound was absorbing the lightning flames from her body and turning them into nourishment for itself.

"Roar!!"

The claws, intertwined with lightning and fire, struck her.

Bagst was knocked back dozens of meters.

At the same time, the flesh that had swelled to the size of a small mountain was shrinking back to its original correct size.

. .. ....

"Ha...ha...guh...!"

Bagst was physically and mentally exhausted.

Her magical power had decreased slightly.

The magical power on the demon hound's side has increased rather than decreased.

She exhaled, her numb hands trembling slightly, the bestiality within her seeming to groan.

It's as if it's saying, "Leave everything to it."

Bagst knew that this alone wouldn't do.

She's not a black dog!

Her love for Du Wei was proof that she was not a beast.

Therefore, I will never betray this love.

Just as the black dog roared, Melusin, in the form of a dragon, chased and fought with the Calamity of Flame in the air.

The two comets, one blue and one blood red, collided.

Each collision results in wear and tear on one side, as both are ultimate dragons that defy inertia.

However, there is a significant performance gap.

Melusin's dragon body had been scratched in several places, while the other party showed no signs of injury.

Speed, power, precision.

Its performance in all aspects is superior to hers.

This is the first time I've encountered a dragon that can overwhelm me with its performance; aside from magic, I can also sense the powerful energy within its body.

The mighty army of souls is hidden within the dragon.

This is its fundamental energy source.

These three calamities have a soul quality bonus, so they can basically all be used against stars.

After all, some perverted snake is manipulating things behind the scenes.

In the atmosphere, two beams of light entangled and fought each other.

A crimson beam of light, powerful enough to shatter stars, sliced ​​through the sky and struck the azure-glowing dragon wings from the side.

It fell from the sky, dragging along dark clouds and smoke.

It hit the ground with a loud bang.

Melusine's left wing was shattered.

Even if magic is used to heal, it will take time, and it is impossible to fly into the sky in such a short time.

Bagst was breathing heavily.

The bestial instincts within him sought to break free from the shackles of reason, and the magical power within him was constantly being devoured and absorbed by the demonic hound.

The two fairy knights were unable to cope with the current calamity.

While fighting Cornunos, Duvi noticed that the two women were unable to cope with the current calamity.

We can't let them stay here any longer.

"Get out of my way!!"

Duve shouted at Cornunos.

The Sword of Domination split into two jet-black swords that slashed in a cross pattern.
