「Kuh……You, just now, what did you do!?」
「It was magic, Human! Ya know, this Gregor-sama is tha number one 《Magician》 in tha Man-Eatin’ Forest!」
「What was that!?」
So his way of fighting like a Fistfighter was all a fake.
Gregor spread open his right hand.
In that hand, phosphorescence of magic power congregated.
「Is that alright? If yer not gonna come, you’ll one-sidedly be my magic’s prey!」
「Damn it! 《Sword Smite》!!」
Spurring on his damaged body, Emil used a Martial Art.
Getting close in an instant, he unleashed a horizontal slash.
However, Gregor’s left arm easily stopped the blow.
「Gufufu……Even as a Fistfighter, I’m stronger that you Humans!」
「As if I’d lose!!」
Gregor’s magic was completed faster than Emil’s pursuit.
His magic was invoked simultaneously with his right fist’s strike.
「Oraa! 《Dark Bullet》!!」
Relentlessly, a black light bullet was shot at Emil who had barely stopped Gregor’s fist with his sword.
Making a thick sound, a hole opened up on the left shoulder of Emil’s armor. Fresh blood fluttered about.
「Guhaah!?」
「Oraa! Next is the right arm!!」
Simultaneous with a kick, magic was once again fired.
The armor was crushed, and from that gap, bright red blood spurt out.
The Adventurers in the surroundings that saw that raised screams.
It wasn’t that they were being cruel. It’s just that they had no way of attacking the enemy that not even Emil’s attack could make a telling blow on.
At the most, they could nothing but Healing magic and Support magic from a distance.
If they were to get closer, they would instead be getting in the way. Even if they were bravely volunteer themselves, Emil had a personality where he would defend against attacks that went towards his comrades.
Rem shouted.
「Emil, please run away! You’re too poorly matched against him!」
However, he stood up even while his legs were shaking.
He expressed his usual pompous-like smile.
「Run away? This great me leaving behind a woman? Oi oi, please don’t go saying such stupid things, Rem-chan.」
Emil combed up his only one tuft long bangs.
「Doing something like turning my back on an enemy in front of a woman is something I will never do! My name is Emil Byushelbeljel! Although I’m the Guild’s number one 《Herculean Warrior》——I am the guardian of all women!」
Gregor narrowed his eyes.
「Now~ then, I guess it’s about time I get serious! When it looks they’re gonna lose, Humans will abandon their comrades and run away, right?」
His reptilian eyes turned towards Rem and Celes.
Right now, if they were to run——
Most likely, Gregor would ignore Emil and start shooting magic at them.
From the beginning, if the two of them looked like they were going to escape, he was able to fire powerful magic at them at any time.
——We were being played with!?
Emil shouted, raised his sword overhead with his bloodstained hands, and charged in.
With a Fistfighter-like stance, Gregor carried a light of magic power in those fists.
「It’s about time, that ya die, Human! 《Dark Press》!!」
The powerful magic crushed Emil’s body.
But even so, he did not step back.
He absolutely did not step back.
