Before they knew it, only about half of the black swords were left. One of them was being held in the jaws of a small light dragon, sustaining damage from the extinguishing light.

The Black Demon Sword was strong and reliable, and would not be destroyed immediately, so it could hold out for a while. At the same time, the Black Demon Sword itself also activated "Space Fracture" and tried to break free.

However, even if you can destroy a small light dragon in this way, there will still be other small light dragons coming to bite it, and in the end it will not be able to escape the fate of being cut in half.

The same goes for the demons, their number is less than half left.

There were no more mantises on the battlefield. Since the surrounding buildings had been destroyed by the Light Dragon, the spiders could only move on flat surfaces, and now there was only one left.

(Not yet? Shizuku! This is a bit strenuous!)

While smiling bitterly inwardly—

“—[Sky-Soaring Break]!!”

A large number of slashes shaped like small crescent moons flew towards him, and Ryutaro had to deal with them.

"Uooooooh ...

He didn't use any techniques, simply lifting a large piece of rubble at least ten meters long and throwing it at him. Only in the King Ghost form could he use such pure violence to deal with it.

A large piece of rubble collided head-on with Tensho Cracking, and was instantly shattered into pieces like a paper shredder, but the number and power of the slashing attacks were reduced, so there was no problem.

"Aa ...

Ryuutarou forcefully pushed through the remaining "Ten-Shou Crack" and approached Kouki.

"Iron Armor Transformation - "Armor Piercing"! "

The armor on his right demonic fist transformed, like a lance enveloping his entire right arm. Simultaneously, the lance instantly heated up, transforming into a "piercing hand" capable of melting and piercing its target upon contact.

"I've seen through your moves, Ryuutarou."

The speed difference between the two was too great. Guanghui suddenly passed by Ryuutarou, creating distance between them. At the same time, he ordered the light dragon, which had circled to Ryuutarou's left, to release its dragon breath.

The ray-extinguishing bombardment came immediately, and just as Ryutaro was about to dodge, the breath he felt behind him made his hair stand on end.

Ryutaro lowered his lower body, crossed his arms again in defense, and shouted a warning.

"Shizuku! Get out of the way!"

Then, the dragon's breath struck directly. Ryutaro's own "Vajra" was broken, and his dark green flesh suddenly felt an intense pain.

After confirming that Shizuku's presence had disappeared from behind him, he flew to the side.

The artillery fire passed through Ryutaro's original position, digging into the ground while continuing to shoot into the distance. Unfortunately, it hit the gray corpse and a demon on the diagonal line, blasting them into ashes.

"Kui... you deliberately aimed at both of us at the same time. You're so cruel!"

"I've known you since childhood, and I know your ways perfectly well. It would be easy for me to trick you."

"Hmph, you're quite arrogant!"

At this time, Shizuku appeared beside Ryutaro.

"Ryutaro! Are you okay!?"

"Oh! No problem!"

Although Ryutaro said this, white smoke was coming out of his whole body, and his skin was damaged and peeling in many places. It didn't look like he was in good condition.

Shizuku continued to stare at Kouki while taking out the highest-grade recovery potion from the "treasure house", sprinkled it on Ryuutarou's body, and took some herself to restore her magic power.

"Since you've come to meet me, does that mean I can look forward to it?"

"Indeed, it's all thanks to you that you held Kouki back. Now I can see clearly."

"Ha!" Ryutaro laughed happily.

"That's great, time to strike back! Ling must be trying her best too. It's two against one, but we can't say we can't win!"

"That's absolutely right. Let's quickly take care of this big idiot!"

Seeing the two of them talking like this, Guanghui showed a somewhat disgusted and helpless expression on his face.

Because judging from the current battlefield situation and the battle results so far, Guanghui believes that he has a sure victory.

The reason they allowed the two to talk was because they expected them to surrender. Unexpectedly, they remained so full of spirit, determined to fight to the end. Guanghui shook his head helplessly.

"You two's performance truly amazes me, but the disparity in performance is too great. This is truly inconsiderate. I'm worried about Eri's safety, so I really must end this battle."

With that, Guanghui raised the holy sword high and slashed it down. The light dragons and the newly summoned, multiplied army of smaller light dragons responded to the holy sword, gathering their strength and preparing to unleash their dragon breath.

The Gray Corpse followers retreated one after another, escaping from the effective range of the dragon's breath, ignoring the obstruction of the demons.

Guanghui seemed to be planning to ravage the battlefield with a spray of dragon breath.

As for Shizuku and Ryuutarou──

"Ascension to the heavens—『Ultimate Liberation』!!"

"The demon transformed and mixed into a wolf demon!"

Shizuku unleashed an upgraded version of the ultimate sublime magic, "Forbidden Zone Release." Ryuutarou unleashed the ultimate transformation magic, combining the strengths of both monsters to transform.

Shizuku's entire body glowed with brilliant glazed magical light, while Ryuutarou transformed into a war wolf with the physique and horns of a king demon.

"You guys still have something to sing about!?"

Guanghui said this in surprise, but the two did not respond, nor did they pay attention to the large amount of dragon breath that shot towards them like a meteor shower.

"First, take care of the Gray Corpse Clan that's in the way!"

"Leave it to me!"

With that, the two of them vanished in a flash. In the blink of an eye, they moved from the center of the battlefield to a corner, closing in on the Gray Corpse disciples who were attempting to launch a saturation attack from the periphery with both decomposition magic and inherent magic.

The two gray corpses only had time to turn around.

The next moment, their heads flew up.

"First formation—'Steal'! Second formation—'Open the door'! Fourth formation—'Flashing'!"

"Followers! Stop the Gray Corpse's actions!"

The two of them moved so swiftly that they left no trace, and their commands sounded as if they came from the entire battlefield.

“So fast!”

No matter how hard he fired, he missed. Even when he swept the extinguishing light across, he only destroyed the Gray Corpse followers and the demons.

During this time, the first group of black demon swords disappeared into the ground, sneaking into the ground like an ant-shaped monster, and then rushed out from the blind spot of the gray corpse disciples and stabbed them.

At the same time, the second array of black demon swords cut through the space, and cracks also appeared in the space near the gray corpse disciples.

It was an instant "space-time gate" created by using the "space rupture" function, which could only last for a few seconds.

It could be activated at the enemy's location, allowing for a space-jump attack. Unfortunately, it couldn't be aimed accurately. Instead, the fourth formation rushed into the spatial rift.

From the perspective of the Gray Corpse Disciples, it was like being suddenly attacked by a slash that came through space while fighting the Black Demon Blade and the Subordinate Demon. Of course, there was no time to defend against such an attack, and the Gray Corpse Disciples were cut in half one after another.

At the same time, of course──

"—[Secret Flash]."

Unlike the Black Demon Sword, Shizuku herself can perform extremely precise space-jumping slashes.

Under the blessing of the ultimate sublime magic "Extreme Heaven Liberation", he continuously casts various superb skills.

The Gray Corpse followers were eliminated one after another, which made people question the significance of the previous hard battles.

And the same goes for Ryutaro.

Approaching with the speed of a war wolf, crushing with the arm strength of a king ghost.

No matter how the Gray Corpse Disciples tried to distance themselves by flying or join forces, they would be stopped by the remaining ten or so servant demons, and then be hunted down by the Wolf Ghosts in the blink of an eye.

However, even with such outstanding fighting abilities, it was not easy for the two.

(Hmm, this is worse than I thought. I’m losing control of my consciousness…!)

Transforming into a monster through magic isn't without its risks. Furthermore, Ryutaro's transformation vehicles are the Wolf King and the King Demon, both of whom are among the highest-level monsters in the Abyss. With limited time to familiarize himself with the monsters, Ryutaro operates almost entirely by instinct. Furthermore, he's simultaneously transforming into two different monsters.

Therefore, it can only last for forty seconds at most. If the transformed state exceeds this limit, it will be impossible to recover. Ryutaro will no longer be a human, but a true beast.

Shizuku also faced the same limit, with a similar time limit. Unlike a "Limit Break," it wouldn't weaken her body to the point of being unable to move, but it still inevitably led to the exhaustion of her magic power.

Therefore, the two were extremely anxious, desperate to eliminate all the Gray Corpses before they ran out of energy and then launch a final attack on Guanghui. They gritted their teeth and fought desperately.

"That's enough, just sleep!"

Guanghui roared, losing his patience. He launched a continuous barrage of slashes and bombardments in all directions, like a mobile offensive fortress.

The fierce attacks of the Light Dragon and the Small Light Dragon Legion have randomly restricted the attack paths. After Guanghui itself took action, the actions of the two were further restricted, and the speed of annihilating the Gray Corpse Clan inevitably decreased.

(We have to catch up!)

Just as Shizuku and Ryutaro prayed at the same time.

A flock of black butterflies fluttered down onto the battlefield.

The remaining Gray Corpse disciples stopped their actions and looked at the other Gray Corpse disciples, appearing very confused.

"What's wrong?! What happened?!"

Seeing Guanghui panicking and at a loss, Shizuku and Ryuutarou raised the corners of their mouths at the same time.

"Everyone, listen! Take care of the remaining Gray Corpse followers!"

"Followers! The rest is up to you!"

With only ten seconds left, Shizuku and Ryuutarou pushed their feet hard against the ground and turned forward.

"Glorious!"

By the time Guanghui regained consciousness, it was too late. Ryutaro had already appeared at his side. Guanghui had no time to defend himself, and the best he could do was turn away. At that moment, Ryutaro punched him in the stomach with all his might.

This punch, based on the karate techniques that Ryutaro had devoted himself to studying since childhood, combined with Wang Gui's own arm strength and "impact operation" ability, War Wolf's "acceleration", and Demon Fist Armor's "Giant Strike", reached a realm that can be called the ultimate secret.

After the heavy impact and loud noise that seemed to blow away even the air.

Guanghui's body bent into a "ㄑ" shape and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

The impact seemed to burst out from his forehead. Although he did not fall down, his knees began to shake involuntarily and he took a few steps back.

"My good friend, now you should be clear-headed, right?"

"Um, Ryuta..."

"I'll give you another one. Don't be so confused anymore. Wake up!"

“Hmm!? Ugh!”

Second strike. Taking advantage of the moment when Guanghui's movements slowed down, Ryutaro struck him in the chest again.

The air in the lungs was squeezed out in an instant, and the intense pressure disrupted the rhythm of the heartbeat.

Guanghui couldn't breathe, his vision flickered, and he was blown away in a direction parallel to the ground.

—We must immediately regroup and have the Light Dragon stop the pursuit.

He made this judgment reflexively, but the crisis warning raised by his instinct overshadowed this awareness.

Instinct warned him that the strongest swordsman he knew was waiting in the direction he was flying.

Suddenly, Guanghui felt a chill and goose bumps all over his body.

The instinctive warning is consistent with the facts.

The blown-away Guanghui was already on the verge of death, and waiting for him ahead was indeed Shizuku. She took a sword-drawing stance, ready to strike.

Strong magical power continued to gather towards the black knife in the scabbard.

The scabbard, seemingly unable to withstand the high density of magic power, made a rattling sound. Intense glazed magic power flowed out of the scabbard.

"Shizuku...!"

The glorious world of consciousness slowed down inexplicably, and he plunged the holy sword into the ground to stop his body, while involuntarily calling out Shizuku's name. He himself did not understand why he did this.

"Accept your fate and take this move from me—True Flash."

Shizuku quietly chanted the activation words. At the same time, her figure flashed and disappeared.

Suddenly, the sword flashed. A straight horizontal blade flashed in the air, cutting Guanghui's body in two.

“──!”

The distinct feeling of the blade piercing his body caused Guanghui to let out a muffled wail. He was convinced he had been slashed.
