In the midst of a sea of monsters, blood, and corpses with varying body conditions, two beings were observing the opponent before him. Neither Veroa nor the Demon King Azazel had made any moves.
A large mosquito perched on one of the monsters and stabbed its probosis to consume its blood.
At that moment, the two began their attack. This time, both are moving in the same direction, which is the front. Along with that, a large hand is clenched, ready to be punched on the opponent and honjou masamune is ready to be released from the scabbard. Fist and katana clashed against each other, a shockwave sent several monsters at the closest distance blown away. From here, between the stronger and the weaker can be seen the end result. That is also if the weak throw the attack just like that.
But, at the same time and for a short time, Veroa moved the honjou masamune part of his handle towards the right, then he pulled it towards him while he was currently moving, so that the blade that still collided with the fist of Demon King Azazel was carried away, but did not give any injuries to the fist. After the blade of the honjou masamune had reached its end, Veroa slightly changed the direction of its movement towards the right, so that its body would not crash into the body of Demon King Azazel. Veroa continued to swipe his honjou masamun blade against the chest of Demon King Azazel, although he realized that what he was doing was now in vain, but at least, he made this fight a practice.
The two now turn their backs on each other. No pause, Veroa immediately twisted his body in a few milliseconds. But, Demon King Azazel was nowhere to be. Before Veroa could fully look back, a large fist punched him very tightly. He was bounced away with both his external injuries and his severe internal injuries. He should have died receiving that powerful blow, but thanks to the effects of his achievements, he did not give the enemy a chance to kill him before he could kill the enemy, he's still alive. However, his condition is very severe. The hand that was so big, not only hit the face, but almost the entire upper body was hit by his blow. Several ribs, the right arm that was used to withstand the blow despite the failure, and the skull was fractured. What makes him a little moaning in pain is that one of his ribs touched the wall of his heart, just a little bit of friction was very painful.
After a few seconds of trying to get up, he managed to stand up with great difficulty. With one of his eyes covered with blood, he saw Demon King Azazel still standing in his place staring at Veroa who had just risen. It seemed that he could not believe that there was someone who could survive after getting a blow from him, moreover the one who could survive it was the human who became his greatest opponent.
“Great!!! You are a great man, Veroa. Besides being able to fight against me fiercely, you can still survive my instant death blow. I admit, you are the most powerful being of all time! Haha..”
Veroa seemed confused by the words of Demon King Azazel who said that he was the strongest creature of all time. Moreover, it turned out that he was hit by an instant death blow that only a Demon King possessed. He raised both eyebrows, finally understanding who he was fighting with.
“So, you are the Demon King?” ask Veroa who sounds a little slow.
“You don't know my name that has been famous all over the Cosmic World? You are a village once. That's right, I am the most feared Demon King in the entire world. Hwahaha.”.
“According to the rumors, you are adept at using magic power. But, in my opinion, you are adept as a soul master, may have contracted a warrior-type spirit” said Veroa, trying to find the truth of the rumors.
But, that truth made his heart like it was sliced by a blunt knife that was forced to tear his heart apart.
“That's right, I'm really good at magic. But that doesn't mean I'm weak in physical terms. During the fight, I did not see you using magic, so I did not use it either. For the instant death earlier, it was an innate ability from birth as a demon king. But strangely enough, this innate ability of mine seems to have no effect on you huh?” obviously Demon King Azazel, not seeing the surprised expression and hurt Veroa's face, but it happened so briefly.
“Only for pleasure. Haha.. because it was exciting, I saw you who easily cut off my subordinates head. Impatiently trying to fight a strong person, I finally appeared at this second meeting. Another reason, I am testing you, is whether to enter into qualifications as my plaything. Hwahaha.”.
“No intention to kill me ‘kan? Then, I leave first, willing to continue my duties. Someone is waiting for me behind this protector” said Veroa as he was about to leave, ignoring what had just happened.
“Hey! Waitaminute! Don't you want to chat with this lonely Demon King?” asked Demon King Azazel, feeling very unfortunate if this incident happened so short.
“Enggak”
“What tasks and who is waiting for you?” ask her again, while walking slowly, following the rhythm of Veroa in front of her.
“What do you do when you know it? Laughing at me? Yes, I did, I'll tell you. My job is to save that guy, who's behind his magic-cursing protector. He was...” his speech was cut by the Demon King Azazel.
“Mangana, cursed-dryad”
“That's you know, so stop there and don't bother me anymore, just let myself to hasten to finish the task” said Veroa felt like going all the way from the Demon King Azazel, his heart was still slightly hurt, as he was defeated by a being who was proficient in the field of magic, whereas that figure who was proficient in the field of magic had defeated him with just a single hit. Luckily, the fight had ended somehow since when.
“Oh yes, how did you save him from that curse? Maybe, I can help..”.
Hearing the last words spoken from Demon King Azazel, he felt happy and the pain in his heart had been treated a lot. He cut off his words and immediately said, “Teach me witchcraft, no matter if it's attack, defense, healing, summoning, or any magic it”
Seeing his suddenly drastically changed demeanor and bowing to her, Demon King Azazel actually felt confused, but he agreed to it.
“Alright, when do we start?”
