The Elemental Sword Demon King
Episode 158: Absolute Power
POV: The Nyx
_____________________________________
In front of Nyx, the holy maiden who had defeated the Demon King's body crystallized into spirit stones.
"I killed him?"
"Nyx, don't put on a face like that,"
With a pale face, Sizuan's right hand that could still move touched Nyx's cheek as she struggled to speak, "I knew about this from the start."
He wore such an adult expression despite being only sixteen years old. Seeing that even the fingertips were crystallizing, the sword spirit finally understood, that this was a curse.
The combined hatred and curses from the spirits that had been killed by the power of the holy sword so far, it had piled to the limit and eroded the body of its master.
«Demon Slayer» is a sword that breaks all curses, but the curse is not lost from this world. The holy sword had the power to absorb various curses, it would one day be given to its master.
Spirit weapon, «Rune Nyx» is not a holy sword. Taking the user's life in exchange for providing immense power is
there is no mistaking the nature of the demonic sword.
"No way..."
The girl's forgiving hand. Nyx could not see the fingers that always gently stroked her head, hardened and became spirit stones slowly.
"Master! I didn't know that I..."
"I know, Nyx." Sizuan smiled and looked at Nyx gently.
"Sir, you know that you will..."
"Yes. That's why it's not your fault, Nyx." While patting Nyx's silvery-white hair, she slowly nodded, but her voice wavered and tears gathered in her eyes.
It was obvious that he was facing death, there was no way he would not be afraid. That's why she's not like a holy girl. She was just a normal sixteen year old girl.
"Sir..."
"Goodbye, Nyx. My only friend."
"No, you can't, sir!"
A small voice came out from Nyx's lips, "No, Si-zuan!"
"That's the first time you've called my name. I'm happy, Nyx..."
With a clear voice, the girl's neck crystallized. Nyx can't do anything but watch. Currently the girl who revealed her heart for the first time was shattered after becoming a crystal clear.
"Nyx, i..."
Hot tears fell on Nyx's cheeks.
"Honestly, I don't want to be something like a holy girl."
"Letters!" Wailing resounded throughout the Demon King's castle. To the holy maiden who bore the hope of everyone and has fought for
this point alone, that's the end of his life.
Thus, Nyx sealed herself in the Demon King's arsenal. So that no one would contract the demon sword hidden deep inside.
So he'll never lose another important person again. He would never open his heart to anyone, he swore solemnly.

POV: Kirigaya Kaizo
_____________________________________
"I don't deserve to be Kaizo's sword."
Kaizo becomes speechless in Nyx's past which she glimpses. The girl who had given emotion to this spirit weapon girl who did not have it. Nyx has stolen the girl's own life with her curse.
That's why he closed his heart. For hundreds of years, he continued to separate himself from those who wanted to sign him. So he would never be touched by anyone else again. Kaizo could not imagine how lonely it was.
"Nyxx..." Kaizo rubs the tip of Nyx's eye. Those mysterious purple eyes blinked rapidly.
"Don't tell me you don't have rights. I need Nyx."
"You can't, if you continue to use a demonic sword like me, I will steal your life!"
Kaizo placed her hand on Nyx's head and said, "I won't lose to such a curse," she stroked the beautiful silvery-white hair.
"Fuaa, Kaizo, stop, please..."
"I'm not gonna do it. Until you stop crying, that's all."
"You, for what..."
"Nyx, your curse and your destiny as a demonic sword, I will take it all," saying that he embraced Nyx's delicate body for himself and exclaimed, "so come back, Nyx!"
"Fuaaa, I will, for Kaizo..."
To stop those words, Kaizo hugged Nyx and sealed her lips. Nyx's eyes opened in surprise. It was a ritual to contract a top-tier spirit.
【 Kiss Swear 】
After that he shouted this while tightly holding onto his delicate body, "Be my sword, Nyx!"
In response to Kaizo's powerful words, Nyx replied, "Kaizo, I..."
Silvery white hair Nyx shine.

"What!?" Viona's red eyes widened. From Kaizo's right hand that should have been knocked out, a power of light shone.
*ᚠ ᚢ ᚱ ᚲ ᚷ ᚠᚢ ᚦ ᚨ ᚱ ᚲ ᚹᚺ ᚾ ᛁ ᛃ ᛇ ᛈ ᛉ ᛋ ᛏ ᛒ ᛖ ᛗ ᛚ ᛜ ᛞ ᛁᚠ ᚨ ᚲ ᚾ ᛁ ᛃ ᛋ ᛏ ᛒ ᛖ *
"The Heartless Steel Queen, the holy sword that destroys evil!"
His trembling lips shouted the words of the summoning spirit. Faced with a powerful voice that had a mysterious side, Viona took a step back due to her instincts.
With her lips quivering, she said, "No way, «Naga» in me is scared?"
«Blood Naga» is in a state of fully awakening so that he can understand, this is his true fear. The real power of absolute power.
* ᛇ ᛉ ᛋ ᛏ ᛒ ᛗ ᛜ ᛟ ᛈ ᛋ ᛏᛒ ᛖᚠ ᚢ ᚦ ᚨ ᚱᚲ ᚹ ᚺ ᚾ ᛁ ᛃ ᛇ ᛈ ᛉ ᛚ ᛜ ᛞ ᛟ ᛗ ᛚᛜ ᛞ ᛟ*
"Now form a steel sword and become the power in my hands!"
As if burning eyes, a ferocious light was emitted. In front of Kaizo, the «Gate» connecting their masters and spirit contracts was opened, and what appeared was a girl with beautiful silvery-white hair fluttering.
"Nyx, thank you for listening to my selfishness," while pressing the hole in his chest, Kaizo smiled wryly.
"Kaizo, I'm your sword, as long as you want." The uniformed Nyx said that with the same expressionless face as usual.
He wondered if the slightly red cheeks he could see slightly on Nyx's cheeks were due to fire or something else.
"So you called back «Devil Killer»," Viona's red eye beam rose and continued, "this is the reason why it's pointless to beat you!"
Roaring, he swung «Dragon» Killer.
"Destroy, tyrannical demon dragon!"
A red light shot out from the tip of the sword. It burned the ground and instantly destroyed the trees in its path.
"Nyx!"
But Nyx didn't avoid it and just stood there. With an ice-like expression, she turned to the hell scene that Viona had made and stretched out her palm.
"I'm talking to Kaizo right now, so don't bother us."
The hell that rages on the earth is scattered easily. Viona widened her eyes in surprise. Nyx gave off a ferocious aura that did not match her which was extraordinary with the appearance of the little girl.
"Nyx, let's go!"
"Yes!"
Kaizo shakily stood up and held Nyx's hand. His chest wound opened and a large amount of blood splattered on the ground. His arm joint was sprained, his ribs were broken. It was a condition that could only be described as a wound.
But for some reason, he knew he would not lose. Just having Nyx nearby seemed to send a power flowing from within him continuously.
Kaizo shouted the spirit words to release and Nyx's body scattered into light particles. In the next instant, Kaizo's hand held the silvery-white light from the sword.
【 Devil Killer, Rune Nyx 】
"Let's do this, Viona Spellister!" Kaizo shouted while preparing Nyx with both hands.
"No need for clever tricks, in the face of absolute power it's just a small matter."
* ᛇ ᛉ ᛖ ᛚ ᛜ ᛞ ᛟ ᛋ ᛏ ᛒ ᛗ ᛈ ᛋ ᛏᛒ ᛒ ᛗ ᛚᛜ ᛞ ᛟ*
"My blood-calling jaw, demon dragon, rampage!"
Viona also positioned her «Dragon Slayer» again and roared. And the two holy sword users were running at the same time.
"Ohhhhhh!"
"Ohhhhhh!"
The wind from the sword dug into the ground and sent the ground and sand flying.
"Feel my blood boiling with your body!"
A huge sword swung before his eyes. Wrapped with enough holy power to blow it up, it even grazed a little as Viona attacked.
But Kaizo was not afraid and immediately sped up. There's nothing to be afraid of. Because Kaizo now has the strongest sword with him.
"Nyx, your sadness and despair, I will end it all!"
The moment the two swords met, «Devil Killers» emitted light and destroyed «Dragon» Killers in one strike.
