Chapter 111

「That’s incredible.」

Cordelia’s swordsmanship… It’s no joke.

「It’s like a whirlwind or something.」

A barrage of strikes that are beyond the perception of an ordinary person, strike after strike, and even more strikes.

The sword wind seems capable of carving everything in its surroundings into sashimi.

However, the massacre demon keeping up with Cordelia’s sword dance with ease is no joke either.

The demonic sword and the flaming magic sword scatter countless metal sounds and sparks, if it were nighttime, it would do as a little illumination.

Cordelia’s sword is Hinokagutsuchi… huh.

A god-killing sword almost on par with my Excalibur, and in the end, Liu Hai didn’t let me touch that sword, did he?

I guess Cordelia was favored by that old man more than someone like me.

Unlike me, a careless student, Cordelia is serious…

And in the meantime—

「…Nuclear Heat Roar (Drags Nuclear).」

Lilith… seriously?

She just unleashed a nuclear attack.

Well, it’s not exactly a nuclear explosion, more like a laser weapon that utilizes nuclear heat… but it pierced through the massacre demon’s armor, blowing off a part of its right shoulder.

Ah… mushroom clouds are rising on the horizon.

But, I guess there shouldn’t be any settlements around there… I wonder if it’s okay?

「Well, they don’t seem to be in danger over there.」

Anyway, I have three Ultimate Goblins to deal with.

One of the golden goblins leaps at me.

「Quite fast… huh.」

I intended to dodge, but I had no choice but to block with my sword.

But that’s only against attacks from behind.

Against the goblin leaping at me, I dodge its claw strike by millimeters, then cut it down with a single stroke.

However, the goblins that seemed to be three individuals were actually using optical camouflage to hide one of them.

So, it’s a story of them coordinating their attacks as one goblin leaps at me.

「They’re quite good at fighting, these guys.」

Was that their plan from the beginning?

Anyway, as one goblin attacks me from behind with its claws, and we’re locked in a guard clash, the remaining goblins leap at me from both sides.

One with its fangs, the other with its claws.

「But… they were still short of a dozen to face me.」

A backhand punch to the goblin from the left.

「Gyaaah!」

A kick to the body of the goblin from the right.

「Byuuu!」

And as for the goblin I’m in a guard clash with, I push through its claws and cut it in half.

「Ju!」

Since I cleanly hit the goblin from the left in the jaw with a backhand, it suffers a concussion.

I won’t overlook a moment of incapacitation in battle.

As it kneels down, I aim for its head with a horizontal slash.

With brain matter splattering, the goblin meets its end.

Then, I turn to the goblin that was kicked away.

「Guh… Guh…!」

It looks at me with a fearful expression, hoping for mercy, but I’m not soft on monsters.

Letting them go and being stabbed in the back during a critical moment is a goblin’s common trick.

「There, all done.」

I thrust Excalibur towards its heart.

The sword slides in smoothly, like a hot knife through butter, and as I pull it out, blood sprays on my cheek like a fountain.

I take out an oiled paper to wipe off the blood, then sit down on a rock with a sigh.

「So, I wonder how the other two are doing?」
