Chapter 157

「This is the end!! —-『Roaring Thunder』!!!」

The demon said a phrase that one used when one released their ultimate technique, and swung the hand that he held up toward the sky down .

Disoriented by the strong light, a shock ran through that hand that was held out in front .

Everything was dyed white, and then it returned to normal .

Clouds of dust danced in the air .

「…haa . 」

After the clouds of dust settled, someone among the demons gasped .

It was natural that they would do so .

Far from being blown away, he wasn’t even injured when he took a direct hit from an attack that would have completely annihilated a several meter tall monster .

When they saw such a human, they finally understood just what they were dealing with .

That face that still had a few points of childishness left was colored in disappointment .

Those eyes were a dull black, as if the darkness of this world was held within them .

The man sighed, and lowered his slightly numb right hand .

「Are you looking down on me?」

「Of course not . If it were a normal human, they would already cease to exist . 」

In front was not the horizon, but a line of monsters .

As if that wasn’t already enough, there was a sea of monsters, as far as the eye could see .

There were nothing but monsters that were several times taller than those from the lowest level of the dungeon .

The only ones in front of the monsters were the demons and man .

It was a situation where, if they were a normal human, they wouldn’t have been laughed at even if cast away their embarrassment and honor to run away, let alone pleading for their life .

Despite this, a scornful laugh leaked from the man’s lips .

Perhaps it was because they saw the scene just now, but a few demons retreated several steps backwards .

「You, are crazy . You are a monster that couldn’t even be called a human anymore . 」

The demon whose forehead was full of sweat said this when he saw the man who was giggling during such circumstances .

The man did not get angry, he just accepted those words .

「Aah, if that’s what you said, then that’s how it is . However, ever since I came to this world, the one who made me go mad was you . Naa, Abe Mahiro . 」

The man deliberately called the demon’s name in a way that was done differently in this world .

The demon who lost his calm raised an eyebrow .

The man raised the arm that he had lowered up to his chest, and fired off a few words to invoke his magic .

「『Shadow Magic』」

An unprecedentedly large and deep darkness overturned the world .

Within that darkness where one couldn’t even see those who were right next to them came baffled voices everywhere .

「I have to thank you for turning me into a monster . Thanks to you, I could kill that man . And regret it . I will not forgive you . 」

The man raised both hands up to the sky, as if taking everything in .

「Lord, I will be the one to personify all the evil in the world——『Divine Punishment』 . 」

The moment those words left his lips, the darkness took on various appearances .

There were screams everywhere .

「Be consumed by the thing you fear and die . 」

In an instant, the only one standing in that place was the demon .

Even the remaining things that couldn’t even be called pieces of flesh were eaten up until nothing was left .

What should’ve been a war, and what should’ve been a battle where demons were unilaterally advantageous, turned into a one-on-one because of a monster .
