The Elemental Sword Demon King
Episode 65: The Power of a False Demon King
Moreover, no matter how powerful the elemental aero belonged to Nyx, strangely the sword spirit that was renowned as the strongest in its durability, was broken easily.
"My point is that they are the same as the spirit crystals that Tiana used and then discarded."
As long as the contract ritual was not exchanged, the spirit could not even be nurtured, and his true strength as an elemental aero could not be drawn out either. The holy power that he thought was endless was also just an illusion.
"You are the false Demon King, Noah Alnest. No, you're not even an elementalist."
Of course, while he held many sealed spirits in his body, the fact that he could maintain his body was a definite success.
If he was an ordinary person, he would definitely go crazy from spirit rejection. However, it was very incomplete for him to call himself a Demon King or an elementalist.
He pretended as if he was contracted with some spirit, it was nothing more than a fraud.
"Huh, so what?"
Noah's red eyes shone brightly, and he spat. "Even if you know that, nothing changes the fact that you can't beat me!"
Noah kicked the ground. The rapier sword spirit accelerated as it exploded in his hand.
"I am the Demon King! That verification would be achieved by killing, the Strongest Sword Style Holder (Rei Assar), that is you!"
Just before reaching Kaizo, he ducked down to lower his body, aimed down Kaizo's throat, and launched a thunderous push.
Kaizo slightly turned his head and avoided it. Turning around with his pivot foot, he came back with a back-kick. His sword gouged Noah's chest. Continuing the momentum, Kaizo raised Nyx high above the head.
* ᚨ ᚱ ᚲ ᚹᚺ ᚾ ᛁ ᛃ ᛇ ᛈ ᛉ ᛋ ᛏ ᛒ ᛖ ᛗ ᛚ *
"Manifest, fire wolf spirit (Conquesz)!"
Noah's arm seal glowed. At that moment, fiery fangs attacked Kaizo. It was a lava dog clad in black flames.
The flame fang bit into his left arm which was raised upwards. A great pain spread throughout his body, as if his blood was boiling. But that doesn't make Kaizo's determination go away.
"Yahoo!"
Kaizo twisted, swung his arm, and crashed the lava hound that bit him into the wall. The fire exploded and spread. There was a lava stone that broke.
If it was a contracted spirit, he would come back again to protect his master. However, the sealed spirit, which was only forcefully released, disappeared into the empty space as before.
"What a weak spirit, Victoria's fire is much hotter!" An extremely terrifying smile appeared, and Kaizo immediately swung the Nyx Rune horizontally.
Noah's posture was slightly shattered by the wind pressure. That momentary opportunity was not ignored by Kaizo. Holding the shiny silver sword overhead, he launched an attack with all his might.
*ᚾ ᛁ ᛃ ᛇ ᛉ ᛋ ᛏ ᛒ ᛗ ᛜ ᛟ ᛈ ᛋ *
"Manifest, shield spirit (Aegis)!"
However, the attack was stopped by the shield spirit Noah released.
The sword spirit against the shield spirit, even for Nyx, its attribute compatibility was too poor. If that's all, Kaizo doesn't back down. Without any change, he further pushed his sword.
"Let's go Nyx, show me how serious you are!"
In response to Kaizo's shout, the light of the Nyx Rune shone even brighter. The brightness became a long flash and covered the holy sword.
At that moment, he changed his appearance into a giant sword that far exceeded Kaizo's height.
"What!?"
"Oooooooo!" Kaizo roaring.
He made a crack into the released shield spirit. And then the shield spirit was shattered into two pieces.
"This is absurd, the sword spirit destroyed the shield spirit!?"
"This is the contracted spirit power that is bound by the spirit seal, Noah Alnest!"
Kaizo was holding a large sword overhead again.
"Baj*ngan!"
(What?)
Clasped in the hand that Noah stuck out, was a shiny red coma-shaped gem. As Kaizo looked at the jewel, an indescribable chill ran down his back.
A small crack formed on Nyx's sword quickly.
The Demon King Killing Sacred Sword (Demon Slayer) lost its dazzling brightness. From where the crack had developed, something like a black stain spread out.
(Nyx is rusting!?)
Kaizo tries to pull back Nyx, and at that moment, Noah sneers at her. "I have said that it is your weakness, Rei Assar."
"Gee!"
The released rapier has penetrated the side of Kaizo's stomach. As Kaizo grasped Nyx, who was turning black, she knelt down on the spot.
"You cannot accept the spirit as a tool. Therefore, you are weak." Noah calmly stood up while playing a coma-shaped red gem in one hand.
"The spirit crystal, don't tell me...."
"Ah, that's right. The princess was also holding the same thing."
"Blood Queen Rune Rock?!"
It was a national-level treasure that could seal the power of a top-ranked spirit.
(Why does he have that?)
"really. This thing is the source of my power, the power of the Spirit King (Nebulla) who controls many spirits." Noah laughed loudly with the jewel in his hand, and the seal engraved all over his body emitted an ominous light.
"So, the reason you used a lot of sealed spirits is the power of the high-tier spirits sealed in the gem."
Unlike the Blood Queen Rune Stone that Tiana had whose release had been done, it seemed that the one Noah had displayed the effect just by sticking to her body.
"absolutely fake. What an unthinkable Demon King would do such a dirty trick."
"You have the guts to say that, I will make your sword spirit mine here and now."
The black stain encroached on the Nyx Rune. Noah's loud laughter echoed within the cave. However, a faint smile appeared on Kaizo's lips. "Noah Alnest, you know what? This tunnel echoes sound well."
"Ah, what are you saying?"
"Why do you think I specifically taught you about the true form of your magic trick?"
"What?"
(That's right, it doesn't mean that he talks aimlessly.)
Kaizo does it to convey information. That the spirit he used was not a contracted spirit, but only a sealed spirit.
"Don't misunderstand me. The one you are fighting is not the Strongest Sword Style Holder (Rei Assar)."
At that moment, the Fire Whip that was released circled Noah's right hand.
"This is Team Salamander!"
The door to the actual temple has been opened. There was a standing girl combing her ponytail red hair, and holding a Fire Whip in her hand, Victoria Blade.
"You did well, Kaizo. As expected of my slave spirit!"
"Why do you still have time to say that!" Suppressing the wound on the side of his stomach, Kaizo groaned with a flat look.
Noah shook off the Fire Whip, and glared at Victoria. "Huh, thank you. You opened the door of the temple that was actually special to me,"
"Yes, to beat you!" There was a voice coming from behind Victoria.
Tiana, who had been wearing a special ritual costume on her body, walked calmly. Even for a girl who acted like an ordinary girl, she was not a helpless girl who was frightened by danger.
Standing rigidly was a white-robed Queen with words that echoed in the hearts of anyone as she announced her existence.
"I'll show you. The ritual of 'Kaguya' from the Empire's second princess, Tiana Von Eldant."
