"Don't come any closer! Aaaaaaah!"

However, no amount of fear could stop Julius at this moment.

Pfft——!

Leng Mo was pierced through the body by Julius's longsword.

"Success!"

"Yoshi!"

"We won!!"

When everyone saw Leng Mo's heart pierced by Julius, excited smiles appeared on their faces.

In an instant, everyone around rushed forward excitedly, wanting to celebrate the victory.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Regulus, who had not seen anyone, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes widening in disbelief, and roared angrily at Leng Mo.

"Arrogance...you bastard..."

As he spoke, his white clothes were gradually stained red with blood, a feeling that came from the inside out.

Pfft!

The others who noticed this situation felt something was wrong. Regulus, who had been perfectly fine just moments before, had suddenly died.

why?

Something is wrong!

"Julius! Get away from that guy!!"

Catman Felix sensed something and immediately cried out in terror at Julius. Although he didn't know what had happened, the feeling was more like a transfer of damage!

If that's the case... Julius will be in danger!

"What!?"

At that moment, Julius naturally noticed something was wrong, because Leng Mo, who had been looking terrified, suddenly revealed a mischievous smile.

"Just kidding. Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"

"you--!"

Julius retreated in surprise to create distance, but just before he could retreat, Leng Mo was faster than him.

In an instant, he struck with a hand chop, aiming for Julius's chest.

"Heart-piercing attack!"

With a cold, sharp sound, Leng Mo's hand shot forward at an unseen speed.

Pfft——!

The attack struck Julius instantly, causing blood to explode from his chest, and the immense force propelled him flying backward.

boom!

Julius crashed heavily to the ground behind him, his face filled with disbelief and shock, lying on the ground bleeding profusely from his serious injuries.

"Hahahaha! You think I'm really afraid of you? Seriously, you actually believe me after just a little show—tsk tsk!"

Leng Mo stood there with a sinister grin. His injuries had healed at some point, and the black book in his hand gave him the air of an evil priest.

"You...transferred the damage..."

Julius, trembling with pain, spoke to Leng Mo on the opposite side of the ground, already having guessed what had just happened.

Regulus's sudden death and Leng Mo's sudden recovery are all logical and well-founded.

"Oh my, you noticed? You're so observant!"

Standing still, Leng Mo didn't deny it, and looked at Julius with a friendly smile, saying happily.

"How could... how could they use the lives of their own people... what a despicable bastard!"

Julius was furious about the situation, but there was nothing he could do but be angry.

He has already lost!

It was doomed from the start.

Leng Mo's bizarre and unpredictable abilities caught everyone off guard and made them impossible to defend against.

"Guess how many more times I can use it?" Leng Mo looked at Julius, who was seriously injured by his sneak attack, with a smug smile.

Regulus died a worthy death, demonstrating my danger with his final act; such terrifying power was enough to shock everyone.

But that's not enough; more pressure is needed.

Only when everyone feels despair can it be considered complete!

"Hehehehe..."

Thinking of this, Leng Mo let out a sinister laugh, filled with anticipation.

He turned to look at the large group of people beside him and slowly walked up to them.

Meanwhile, the mercenary group that had originally come over...

“He’s coming!!!”

"Everyone, keep your distance!"

When the mercenary leader saw Leng Mo walking towards him, he left to greet the group and retreated.

"What are you afraid of? Why are you retreating? Do you want to lose this battle? If you're going to admit defeat... then I won't be polite. The next target is the royal city!"

Leng Mo exudes an immense sense of oppression, radiating the aura of a demon king awakening, making everyone feel the pressure.

The repeated defeats severely dampened their morale.

However, if we don't persevere at this point, we'll likely suffer a complete defeat; if we do persevere, we'll inevitably fail as well.

It can't be beaten at all!

"What...what should we do?!"

"I don't know either. What did the commander say?"

"Don't make things difficult for the commander..."

"Hold on! Keep your distance, and be careful he doesn't get any closer!"

For a moment, the mercenary group was filled with tension, just like before facing a boss, and felt confused about everything.

If a fight breaks out, defeat is inevitable!

Who are the key generals left on our side?

Reinhard fell, Roswaal betrayed them, and even Julius fell.

Just then, a towering figure stepped out from the ranks.

He's a stranger.

but……

"What are you doing! Come back here!!"

The people around immediately shouted when they saw that tall and imposing figure.

However, the man turned around and smiled slightly: "It's alright, he and I are bound to have a battle."

As soon as he finished speaking, the man gritted his teeth and charged forward.

He glared at Leng Mo and roared angrily.

"Arrogance! The system's vengeance! I'll make you pay with your life!"

"???"

Nani? !

Natsuki Subaru? !

Although Leng Mo didn't understand what a system was, he knew that the Natsuki Subaru who was attacking him was definitely no ordinary person!

He clenched his fists, his muscles bulged, and he unleashed a devastating aura.

Gritting his teeth and speaking in a hoarse voice, he leaped forward and delivered a punch that seemed to fall from the sky towards Leng Mo.

"I unleash a massive, ten-million-ton punch!!"

He mustered all his strength and slammed it at Leng Mo, his face filled with hatred.

He recognized him; Leng Mo was that man!

That man who killed the system!

He wanted to settle both old and new scores at this moment!

When Leng Mo saw Natsuki Subaru throw a punch at him, he didn't flinch at all, and let Natsuki Subaru attack him with an evil smile.

Unexpectedly, at that very moment, a figure suddenly appeared between Leng Mo and Natsuki Subaru.

"What?! Why?!"

Natsuki Subaru stared in disbelief at the person who had suddenly appeared before him, his eyes wide, but his fist was already out of control.

It's Roswaal.

Roswaal stood in front of Leng Mo.

He was remarkably nonchalant about the current situation; no one expected him to appear at this time and in this moment.

"Actually... I didn't want to either. But I have to stand up for my teacher. Your attack is strong and will definitely kill Pride. But it will transfer the damage to my teacher, so... I'm sorry, Subaru."

Roswaal looked at Subaru Natsuki with a gentle smile, then took the attack with his own body.

boom--! !

Subaru Natsuki's fist struck Roswaal, the immense force sending him flying backward and spitting out a mouthful of blood.

The blood turned into mist.

He was hit by Natsuki Subaru's full-force punch, and Natsuki Subaru knew... this punch would surely kill Roswaal.

Looking at Roswaal, whom he had just knocked away, Subaru Natsuki was filled with grief.

At that moment, he seemed to understand why Roswaal had betrayed him.

At that moment, he realized that Roswaal was his teacher in everything.

They would even risk their lives to protect...

Such a loyal and devoted Roswaal would only fill Subaru Natsuki with grief and indignation.

"Rozwaal!!"

Subaru Natsuki comprehended the sorrowful cry, something no one expected, and no one noticed.

Roswaal is so simple.

He's clearly just a clown that nobody likes...

But now he realizes that the clown is actually himself.

"Hahahahahahahahaha! Spasashi! Boom Donis Spasashi! I admit, Roswaal, no one can compare to your feelings for your teacher!"

Upon witnessing this unexpected scene, Leng Mo burst into wild laughter.

Splashy!

I was still figuring out how to get rid of you, but you delivered yourself right to my doorstep!

Great, we're one step closer to the final step of the plan!

At that moment, Natsuki Subaru stared tremblingly at his fist, realizing he had made a mistake...

But... everyone knows there's nothing wrong with that.

If Leng Mo is not killed, the consequences will be unimaginable, but killing Leng Mo will hurt Roswaal's feelings for Echidna.

For a moment, Natsuki Subaru was struggling with his inner turmoil and had no idea what to do.

"What are you hesitating for? Do it! Why aren't you doing it? It's just someone else's feelings; you don't need to pity them. So, come on! Use all your strength to kill me!"
