Chapter 61 Part 5 – The power of the God of Combat pierces through the darkness. And Alisa starts to move.

「Those are the birds and small animals that have been hiding in the trees without being able to escape. They fainted due to the great warrior’s fighting spirit. No matter whether it is an elephant or a lion, they cannot escape. That is …… the power of the wrath of god. 「He」 is no longer a human.」

As if to confirm Phantasma’s words, a gust of wind whipped up and made the hem of 「his」 maid uniform flutter. The wind rose around 「him」 like a spiral. The wings of blood mist on his back narrowed to a sharper angle.

…… No way, is 「he」going to use the strongest technique of the〈Lawless Crew〉, the 「Heartless Autumn Leaves」!?
However, that technique should be a lump of high risks, such as the activation time of 30 seconds, the range of just one step, and the inability to stop the activation midway through. Even if it’s 「him」, it would be impossible to hit Addis who has turned into a demon monkey.

However, 「he」 was not trying to use the 「Heartless Autumn Leaves」.
I only realized this when I saw that the whirlwind that was swirling around 「him」 was accompanied by a strange sound like a howl and the surrounding landscape bent and swayed.

…… I instinctively clung to Phantasma’s clothes.

That technique is …… incredibly dangerous ……!!

Perhaps Addis sensed the danger with his wild instincts and so he just let out a threatening cry and did not jump at 「him」.
It’s the howl of a loser dog, or should I say, a loser monkey. He is terrified.

「He」 was not looking at the screaming Addis, but at the Blue Diamond behind him.

「…… I’ve learned this technique thanks to that monstrous woman who used it to beat me up so many times. Here I go. It was self-taught, but I can at least guarantee its power. The combination technique of ‘Transmission’ and ‘Frenzy’. …… The ‘Demon’s Cry’ ……!!」

After saying so, 「he」 stepped forward.
With each step, the feeling of oppression grew.
It was like a huge typhoon.
A chill ran down my spine.
It was like the sound of a wailing demon.
With his hair standing on end, Addis screamed with a hoarse voice.
Even that scream was swallowed up by the roar that rumbled through the air.

「…… Get out of the way. Or you’ll die.」

「He」 gave a short warning to Addis. That was the trigger.

「…… Ukyaaaaaaaa!! Kikikikiiii!!」

Panic-stricken, Addis lost all sense of judgment and out of all things he chose to charge at 「him」. It was the pinnacle of stupidity. It would have been better to be wrapped in a bamboo mat and thrown off from a precipitous cliff. I guess one of the nerves in his head must have snapped due to the extreme fear. From now on, I should call him 「Addis the Reckless」, as opposed to 「Addis the Faceless」.

However, his movement was frighteningly fast.
Or rather, to my eyes, he seemed to have disappeared.

「Did he use that invisibility technique, ‘Dark Illusion’, again?」

「No, that’s just his speed. When Addis becomes like that, he’s strong ……」

It was just as Phantasma said.
After pretending to go head-on, Addis actually went behind 「him」 and launched an attack.
I could not follow Addis’s figure with my eyes, but I could make out his trajectory because the tree trunks he used as a foothold were bent like bamboo. Utilizing the momentum from the tree, Addis accelerated even further. He seemed like a lightning as he flew through the forest.

With enough speed built up, his body rotated and his six arms looked like propellers as they were about to strike 「him」.
Addis was like a human shuriken. But 「he」 did not even spare a glance at him.

「Akyaaaaaa!! Hoaakyaaaaa!!」

Addis’s strange screams and the sound of a crash resounded.

…… Addis sounded like the baby me but with a crazy tone in the shout.
By all means, please don’t do that. I’m the original!!

It was as if a small tornado and a large tornado had collided.
The shrill 「Kikikiii」 sound pierced my brain and I reflexively covered my ears. My head went numb.
Phantasma frowned as well.
Blue sparks scattered.
The ruffles on the shoulders of 「his」 maid uniform were slightly torn.

「…… I commend you for breaking through the vortex of the ‘Demon’s Cry’, even if only slightly. But that’s just foolish. Did your master not teach you how dangerous the ‘Demon’s Cry’ is?」

「His」 lines sounded as if 「he」 was the Demon Lord.

「…… Somehow I feel like a villain.」

Ah, 「he’s」 smiling wryly. So 「he」 is aware of it.
But nevertheless, 「he」 didn’t stop walking.

The attack and defense ended in an instant.
The sound of 「Bogyaaann」 and 「Bogoohhh」 resounded.
It suddenly occurred to me that if a human being took a direct hit from a huge falling rock, he would probably make a sound like this.

As if surrounded in a heat haze, Addis’s figure was distorted.
He was in an amusing pose and looked like a clown that had twisted his own body in an exaggerated manner.
Then in the next moment, Addis flew through the air as his body rotated around like a spinning top that had lost a fight.

Oh my-, rest in peace-.

Unless an angry male elephant tossed him high into the sky with his nose, he would never experience anything like that.
Ahh, he’s flying away.

I felt sorry for Addis.
After being knocked unconscious by Bradd’s blow, it’s fine that he decided to strike back, but this time he was sandbagged for a long time by 「he」 who was borrowing Bradd’s body. I’m sure the maid uniform must be traumatizing for him.

But Addis’s misfortune was just beginning.

Addis was not falling down.
I looked at Addis quizzically and saw him dancing in the air.
Why is he acting so crazy? Is he trying to do a pantomime of a marionette?
Is he going to retire from the Seven Phantoms and join the circus?
At first, I was confused, but when I realized what was going on, I truly shuddered.

Phantasma let out a 「Muguuu」 sound.

Phantasma must be feeling nauseous. Comrade, I know exactly how you feel!!
You seem like a person with a sense of decency. As expected, what do you think about working for our family?
Other than the fact that my father is a psycho who is completely infatuated with my mother, it’s a fun and cozy workplace.

Addis’s limbs are twisting on their own.
Not just his limbs. His torso, neck, and every part of his body.

It seemed as if I was watching a group of children, in a fit of cruel curiosity, pulling and destroying a doll for the sheer fun of it. Looking at it closely, I could see countless transparent fluctuations being wrapped around Addis’s body. I don’t know how it works, but that’s what’s keeping Addis stuck in mid-air, not allowing him to fall.

An eerie sound like the explosion of dead wood crackled and resounded.
His bones could not withstand the twisting and finally broke.
Addis was screaming out due to the extreme pain …… I think.
Because even though there was no sound coming out, fresh blood flew out repeatedly through the gap in the mask.
His vocal cords and tongue were probably twisted and rendered useless, just like his limbs.
Probably his internal organs as well ……!!

Is this the work of an invisible demon or something!?
Is this story finally giving up the isekai romance genre and turning to horror?

「…… The power of the ‘Demon’s Cry’ that is unleashed will not disappear for a while. Even if the opponent is dead, it will still twist, crush and destroy his body. …… Although I’m currently using this technique, how can that monstrous woman come up with such a horrifying technique.」

「He」 said with an abhorrent tone.
Apparently, it wasn’t horror, but a ridiculous fighting technique ……

But it’s way too scary!!
After witnessing such a scene, I won’t be able to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night!!
If I pee myself, will you take responsibility for it!?　
Also, who’s this monstrous woman who has been coming up in the conversation since a while ago!?　
I’m the heroine and the main character, and yet it seems like I’ve been left out since a while ago!?
