*****In the magic academy in the capital of Theocracy, in the dedicated arena of the C-level school building, in the dilapidated central venue****
Zhang Youji looked at the situation where the overlord was thinking about how much to increase his strength due to the battle and accident just now. He was repeatedly making fists and adjusting the strength on the spot. He was escaping from reality and thinking about whether he should use Demon-chan or... The indifferent young girl directly picked up Zhang Youji and used it as a shield.
Just because the Overlord seemed to have finished thinking about the issue of strength before him, and re-arranged his stance to fight with a more powerful attack than before, Zhang Youji could only give up those things and want to escape reality. With distracting thoughts, I observed the current situation and tried to think of strategies to survive. In a state of accelerated thinking, I discussed with Moni.
(Well, it seems that Demon-chan, who was just beaten into the ashes, has not returned yet, or is he still looking for a chance to sneak attack? Forget it, the only one who can be relied on now is the lazy girl. She is behind the Overlord, so she can come just in time. They are attacking from the front and back, and if you break the pot, give her a signal and try to attack together?)
"Unfortunately, if we do that, the owner will be defeated by the conflict between the Overlord and the Demon King of Indolence in the future."
(Well, I can certainly imagine it, or rather, the picture has already appeared in my mind, right! How about suddenly thinking of skills that can enhance abilities such as magic fighting?! I completely forgot about such skills in a hurry. )
"Rejection, it's meaningless. If the holder suddenly uses those skills that enhance the ability, the Overlord's ability to deal with the holder will become stronger and stronger. Supplementary, even if the holder uses those skills to fully enhance the ability. , and it is still not as good as the Overlord’s unknown status value of one thousandth or even one ten thousandth.”
(Very good, then let’s give up using tricks and go for it. At least he can still be merciful even if he uses a little more strength now, and he also has the help of the indifferent young girl and the unknown Demon-chan. , I definitely don’t want to face a ruthless overlord.)
Zhang Youji quickly discussed with Mo Ni in his mind, and after continuously receiving her merciless advice in a sense, Zhang Youji was forced to give up using it, which was just a small trick for the Overlord, so he could only While thinking of something that could relieve my stress, I faced the overlord who started to take action.
【Why? 】
As before, Overlord quickly moved in front of Zhang Youji and made a fist movement, but the difference was that the speed of the action was twice as fast as before. If we say Overlord's previous speed, he showed mercy to Zhang Youji. If you can react as best you can.
The current speed of the Overlord was such that Zhang Youji tried his best and concentrated his energy to the limit to be able to barely see clearly. Moreover, at the same time, the whisper coming from the Overlord made Zhang Youji even more chilled. .
[It seems that the strength of this feeling may be just right? 】
【Not good! Huh? ! 】
If it weren't for the indifferent young girl who had just acted at the same time as the Overlord, and instead of stopping the Overlord's actions, she would have chosen to release the wave that knocked Zhang Youji away just in case, and stopped the Overlord's steps by the way. , then Zhang Youji at this moment would probably really get a bloody blow from the Overlord.
[I really broke out in a cold sweat. Thanks, lazy young girl. 】
[Householder, you dare to be distracted in this situation. It’s really amazing. 】
Taking advantage of the moment when the overlord's footsteps stopped, the indifferent young girl actually took her eyes away from the overlord and turned to her to say hello because Zhang Youji, who had barely regained her composure, was because of Zhang Youji's position, which was better than hers. It was still the performance of an amateur in combat, and he couldn't help but sigh when the Overlord took action again.
【Why? Bad]
The lazy girl was distracted by Zhang Youji's greeting and did not have time to attack again. She was stunned for a moment and realized that at some point, the Overlord had moved in front of her, and Zhang Youji, whose fist had even reached her eyes, did not even say a word. On the way to finish speaking, Demon-chan suddenly appeared in his sight, and he made preparations for the situation.
【It’s really bad! 】
[As expected, I didn’t knock you unconscious, was the force gentle? 】
【It’s heavy! Demon-chan just used his headbutt to force it back! 】
The moment the Overlord's right fist was about to hit Zhang Youji's face, Demon Sauce suddenly appeared and immediately attacked the joints of the Overlord's shoulder with all his strength, forcing the Overlord's fist away from Zhang Youji's face. After a brief conversation, He also took advantage of the situation and prepared to continue attacking the Overlord's crotch with his feet.
However, he had already expected that after Demon-chan appeared, he might attack the overlord there, so before Demon-chan took action, he aimed his left fist at Demon-chan's head, trying to knock her unconscious.
【oh? 】
【Blowing Breath of Absolute Ice! 】
In this regard, Zhang Youji used his left hand to grab back Demon-chan, who was jumping in the air to block the attack and had the appearance of a young girl, and then used the girlish-looking one in his right hand that was transformed into a soul-protecting flower. The wooden stick blocked the Overlord's attack and at the same time sprayed out the Roar of Ice.
[Kid, don’t stop me! But we should retreat! 】
【Sure enough, naive. 】
Looking at Zhang Youji's actions, the Overlord just changed the angle of attack and used more force than before. He continued to punch to disperse the ice breath, and also broke through the blockage of the wooden stick, unstoppably aiming at Zhang Youji's face. As for Zhang Youji's face, Yuji made a subconscious reaction because of the crisis without thinking too much.
【Uh-huh? ! ? ! ? ! 】
【Um? 】
[Homeowner? 】
Overlord, whose face was splattered with blood, looked at the scene where Zhang Youji subconsciously used Demon-chan as a shield to block a blow, causing Demon-chan to scream and vomit blood. He couldn't help but talk to the indifferent young girl who was about to help him. Because of this scene, they all stopped moving in an instant.
As for Zhang Youji, who subconsciously picked up Demon-chan's collar and used her belly as a shield, such an unscrupulous act, after being knocked away together with Demon-chan and retreating some distance, Zhang Youji barely stood still. Because of the awkward atmosphere at the scene, he moved his eyes with half-open eyes to the bloody and weak Demon-chan he was carrying in his left hand.
【···, uh, Demon-chan, can you still fight? Rather, are you still alive? It feels like you can't stand anymore. Can I continue to use you as a shield? 】
[Woo, cough, devils will save face. Even if they want to use one of their own as a shield, they will find an excuse. Kid, you are definitely not a human. Ahem, although I feel that you are unintentional, you use the devil-chan as a shield. After I finished, I wanted to lift the devil-chan, ahem, but before I got permission, I lifted it up again, ahem... 】
[Ah, um, I'm sorry, it really doesn't work. Anyway, thank you for helping me this time. Thank you for your hard work. You can go and rest outside the venue first. 】
[Ahem, kid, you still have some good qualities? 】
Zhang Youji, whose eyes were drifting, raised the Demon Sauce in his hand while speaking. After listening to her coughing up blood and stunned reply, and showing that she was about to lose consciousness, she knew that she had no reason to want Demon Sauce to quickly Zhang Youji, who was receiving treatment, was very panicked. While the devil sauce was replying, he threw it towards the outside of the field.
[Uh-huh? ! ? ! ? ! ···. 】
[Ah, sorry, I forgot about the barrier... 】
Zhang Youji looked at the scene where the Demon Sauce he threw towards Binghua outside the court crashed into Amra's spirit barrier. Zhang Youji, who was once again hit by his conscience because of his actions, was shocked. Looking at the scene in the distance where everyone was recycling Demon-chan, who was now like a torn rag, he fell silent with a look on his face that wanted to cry.
[Although I feel that the homeowner will worry about his conscience from time to time, the current homeowner’s unscrupulous behavior is really amazing. Hey, you probably haven’t done what the homeowner just did, right? 】
[If you ask me if I have ever done this kind of thing of throwing it away after use, I have done it countless times, but in this form, let alone done it, I have never seen it even a few times. 】
[Hmm, if you use the highest demon in this world as a shield and then throw it away like a rag after using it, the homeowner deserves to be called a heretic along with this guy. How awesome. 】
The indifferent young girl looked at the silent Zhang Youji and said some emotions speechlessly. She even asked the overlord for some opinions. Zhang Youji couldn't help but couldn't help but stop moving completely and briefly discuss their feelings. With a feeling of embarrassment and anger, I shouted at the two people.
[There’s nothing I can do about it, right? ! I was really in a hurry and wanted to cure the devil-chan quickly, so I threw it away! And when ordinary people are beaten, they subconsciously use something to block it, right? ! That's an instinctive reaction. What do you want me to do? ! 】
[Hmph, except for the lack of conscience, you are right. 】
[After all, the homeowner was facing this guy. He was just an outsider. He didn’t run away when this guy said he wanted to increase his strength a little. He just used a little trick of using others as a shield, and he still kept his fighting spirit and continued to stand. In front of this guy, it's already pretty good. 】
[Hmm, I don’t know why I’m so angry, but it’s very angry anyway, and it’s not a little trick, it’s really just an unintentional reaction. Forget it, I’ve given up on escaping from reality and running away, and get down to it! So don't give me that subtle look. 】
After Zhang Youji shouted in embarrassment, the Overlord, who looked like he was wondering if he had pushed the layman too much and whether he should be a little more merciful, responded appropriately to Zhang Youji's shouts with a speechless look of pity. .
The indifferent young girl, on the other hand, used subtle feelings to speak subtle words that were either comfort or disgust, which unexpectedly made Zhang Youji give up on himself, and began to be incompetently furious. With subtle preparations, he tried his best to give up his evil thoughts and fight the overlord.
