『・・・』

「・・・」

『・・・』

「・・・」

『・・・』

Ah, no, talk already!

I can’t stand this silence…….

『……….. What do you think you are saying? ……. You 『want』 me, is what I heard…….』

「That is what I said…….」

Why is that……

I really regret what I’ve said……

That’s why I’m reluctant.

It’s because I suck at explaining things that I’m always misunderstood…….

『…….Are you…….. perhaps…….?』

Shit……. Has she figured out I’ve been『reincarnated』…….?

『Swing that way?』

「Hell no!」

Thank goodness the Demon lord is an idiot……

『You 『want』 me…… Fufu…… Fuhahahaha!! You 『want』 me is what you’ve decided!! Fuhahahahahahahaha!!!!』

The boing onee-chan suddenly let out a boisterous laugh.

I’m not very good at dealing with these types, probably.

『Well then, Little girl! Why don’t you try and steal me with that 《power》 of yours!! Therefore, If you win I give the permission to ‘take’ me!!』

「Eh? Is it ok?」

『You even bear the same sword as I, human!! Don’t spoil me……!!』

The Demon lord enter a war stance.

*gungun/ cough cough* I also know that her magic power is increasing.

「Ah, before I forget. Can you wait for a bit?」

『? What? Why get the cold feet now? Little girl』

I put the two best swords inside the item bag.

『!!!…… What are you planning……?』

I then took out 《Zwei hander》 and equipped it.

「I’ll fight with this」

『…… That weapon…… I can sense a bit of 『magic power』 from the blacksmith artisan Zegius……?』

「Hee…… You also know that smithy jii-san?」

Oh yeah, that Maou jii-san.

Noticed that my sword was a『Cursed sword』 during my 『second time』 and now.

Do they know each other……?

『Why do you hold such thing……?』

「To hold back?」

『…… Just now, I think I heard you say “to hold back”……?』

Ah, an “I’m not convinced face”.

And a bit of vein too.

That’s why I hate prideful women.

I opened the status window and chose setting 『Let Others know your LV ●/Don’t let others know your LV○』 and changed it.

Then in an instant a 『LV.99』 status materialized above my head.

『Wha-……!? A level 99……!? ……Little girl…… Just what are you……?』

The Demon lord look scared.

Yeah. I get that. I really do.

I too would drop my jaw if a Level 99 enemy shows up. Probably.

『KU……! It’s that eccentric Old man’s 『strange product,』 huh……! So you say that that weapon is enough to defeat me…..! How humiliating……!!』

「You, even though you’re a provisional demon lord, do use your skill and magic, kay~」

This is different from the tournament.

What’s in front of me is the last boss.

And if I slip up in holding back then it’s a hell of pain I’ll meet.

『Well of course, Little Giiirl!!!!』

The Demon lord kicked the ground and came at me with a fierce look.

No, seriously, it was as if beams were shooting out of her eyes.

『Oh black silver of darkness, envelop all of righteousness in malice! 《Dark Servant》!!』

「A sudden skill——-!!!」

8 black and silver spears materialized from another dimension and surrounded me, ready to attack on her word.

Before me is the demon lord who is swinging down her sword with great speed.

(An attack from all 9 directions, eh……!)

『Diiieeeeeee!!!!!!』

At the signal, the black and silver spears aim for my eyes in a downpour.

「O unfathomable flames of mine! Engrave in my soul the burn of hellfire! 《Engage Blaze Down》!!」

A pillar of fire dances out of my core.

『*Chii/Tsk*!!』

Instantaneously, the Demon lord veered away from the flames.

All of the black and silver spears that were raining down vanished.

「Next-」

I prompt the status window and choose from the magic list 《fire》 then 《Fire Lance》.

「Hoi, pochitto」

『You……!? What’s with your fighting style……!?』

Following her movements, I aimed and threw a giant fire type spear at the Demon lord.

Matching that speed, I also thrust myself forward by kicking the ground.

『Ku……! O water dragon king! Become a shield that will protect me! 《Water wall》!!』

A large wall of water materialize before the Demon lord.

The same as expected.

The demon lord’s special attributes are 《Darkness》 and 《water》.

Even if you’ve reincarnated, your attribute stays same.

Regardless of whether you’re the former hero or the current Demon lord……

With a *Juwa* both the fire spear and water wall disappeared.

「Take this!」

『Ku……!!』

With a *gan* I swung  down《Zwei Hander,》clashing against the demon lord’s sword and causing it to fly out of her hands.

『*Chii/tsk*!!』

The Demon lord prepares to cast magic again.

「Otto」

I aim the 《zwei hander》at the Demon lord’s nape.

『KU……!』

「Do you still wanna continue? I won’t mind, but whatever.」

It’s just a life to kill time in the end.

I’ll accompany the demon lord ’til she’s convinced.

『You……….』

「You?」

『YOU BASTAAAAAAAARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!』

The Demon lord rushed at me with a series of reckless attacks as I continuously brushed them off with 《Zwei hander.》

This is no good.

A girl shouldn’t say 『bastard.』

–After that, approximately 2 hours passed.

And so I killed time with the demon lord–.。

「…… Ruru-chan? Just where in that castle has Kazuha gone to……?」

「I don’t know. Is it not fine if she was eaten by the Demon lord.」

「Ru-ruru-chan…… you surprisingly say mean things……」

「?…… Is that so?」
