Chapter 132: Kagurazaka Yuuki

After leaving the royal capital of the Ingracia Kingdom, Yuuki's group casually traveled along the Great Kanat Mountains towards the Eastern Empire. A safer route to the imperial territory passed through the Dwarf Kingdom and would reveal their location to Rimuru and co. Since Yuuki had never traveled east before, he could not move there with magic. 「Well now, mountain climbing can be fun once in a while. 」Yuuki spoke in a carefree tone while he tore off the low-class dragons that had come to attack them. Kagari responded by shrugging her shoulders while the supervisor Yuuki, whom she had previously sent to several countries, and her trusted followers remained silent, observed their surroundings calmly. Yuuki, who was bored with their answers, looked up at the top. The route that Yuuki's group followed was one that passed above the Kingdom of Dwarves and was rarely passed. The wild dragons inhabiting the area were high-class living beings who could understand human speech if it became a higher species. They were uninvited guests in these mountains so it would be troublesome if they were found by a King Class dragon. Aware of this, Yuuki and co. advanced cautiously. Compared to Yuuki who seemed to be having fun, the shadow of exhaustion could be seen on his subordinates. It was no wonder as they had been attacked by low-class dragons once every hour. Up to five dragons attacked at once. If they passed through the safer route commonly used by merchants, they would not be attacked like this and dragons would rarely appear. The route that Yuuki and co. were traversing was not a route approved by the Dragon Monarch. Maybe because of that, they were very careful. Yuuki had chosen this route without hesitation. At that time, 「Oh? Phone call from Leon. Recently, he was angry and said that he would cancel our deal, does he still have a complaint? 」

While saying that happily, he took out a necklace with a small crystal from his chest pocket and filled it with magic power. And somehow a conversation with Leon happened, 「It looks like Leon will come here. Since it will take about an hour to get here, should we rest and wait for him? 」

He told Kagari and the others before he immediately sat down on a sturdy and comfortable rock. 「Leon. . . ? Demon King, Leon? Will it be okay? 」「 Is there a possibility that it is Demon Lord Ruminas and his partner? 」「 Is it okay if our location is given as easily as that? 」So his subordinates and Kagari asked.

「Eh, it should be fine. After all, he was a regular client. Besides.. . Even if the Demon King comes together and goes along, there's still Chloe. 」

He answered optimistically. Kagari and the subordinates realized that there was no point in saying anything now. And so, after an hour, they will face Leon.

………

……

…

A meteor emitting a golden light appeared in the sky. Although it was daytime, the golden lights were clearly visible. It might have been guided by the detection series magic back then flying directly to Yuuki and his partner without faltering. It was Demon Lord Leon and his Knight subordinates. Leon wore gold armor, and the colorful knights wore silver, black, red, and blue.

「Do I make you wait?」

Leon said as soon as he landed.

「No, it's a nice break. By the way, this seems like an urgent business, what is it? 」

Yuuki replied with a bright smile.

「I heard you lied to me and couldn't be trusted. * I came to find out if it's true or not. 」Yuuki answered Leon's question with a smile. Unseen sparks flew between them, the tension around them instantly grew. 「You, do you think you can use such a lie against me, Demon King?」 「Ahahaha. As expected, are my lies open? Even so, if you want to be aware of it, you should be aware of it sooner. You're too late, you know? 」

With those words as a catalyst, the stone Yuuki occupied instantly melted into lava. It was the effect of the Scorched Magic attack. Yuuki left the place quickly. The opponent's reaction to his response was as expected. In the midst of the conversation, Yuuki did not neglect to analyze Leon and his subordinate strength. The problem was whether Leon would attack on his own or not. Are there any reinforcements from the other Demon Lords? Is Leon just bait? Or is he alone? Depending on the answer, Yuuki needs to switch strategies. Yuuki had been expecting this development ever since he received the call. Leon, as a high rank Demon King, he was not an opponent whose strength he could make light. If that Demon King decided to join the ranks of the other Demon Lords on the united front, it would even be difficult for Chloe to handle them alone. Therefore, he chose this place. 「Hey, hey, suddenly don't gently attack. Your important girl is here, do you know the word Hostage? 」She called Leon to try to make her nervous, but …

"Don't worry, if you die, he'll be released right? What I asked for was a girl, about eight years old with black hair, named Chloe O'bell. He was grown up and standing there! 」Leon ignored Yuuki and denied her words loudly. Hearing Leon's words, the girl with black hair, Chloe, opened her eyes. 「Eh, Leon-Oniichan? You alive?"

He muttered lightly in surprise at the voice full of nostalgia.

「Cih, how else if it has been exposed. I remained silent about keeping Chloe-chan as a trump card against the Demon King, however. When I remember, he had already grown up as a Hero. 」

Yuuki mocked Leon. Next, he continued,

So Yuuki stated. Without letting his heart be disturbed by Yuuki's response, Leon said …

「Fu, is that the only thing you want to say? Then you will die satisfied! 」

Leon starts attacking Yuuki with high output magic. So, the fight between Leon and Yuuki begins.

−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−

The heat wave from the magic that approached Yuuki went berserk to ruthlessly burn his body. Yuuki looked at the heat wave with a fresh expression, and a small smile floated on his face. Mostly, it was as planned. But it didn't go exactly as he wanted. He had considered the possible attacks of some Demon Lords, but judging from the current situation, it was only Leon. Hypothetically, if the three Demon Lords, Rimuru, Ruminas, and Leon came to attack him together, the chances of winning would be small, even if he let Chloe participate in the battle. But it was an assumption that Rimuru and Ruminas would unite and attack him. It is unexpected that Leon will take part in the battle, but since Chloe is involved, it is certain that he will become an enemy sooner or later. If he thought about it, it was unexpected that the girl, whom Leon had entrusted to him, had become a Hero. Ever since he found out, he had always been eyeing the opportunity to seize the "Sleeping Hero" enshrined by Ruminas. This is for the sake of getting a trump card against Ruminas. Rimuru is a suspicious reincarnation person from the same country as her and has shown uncertain growth. He had planned to quickly get rid of this disorder. But it ends in failure, Rimuru becomes the Demon King. Because it became like this, he had planned to make the children his trump card. He would collect trump cards against every Demon King so that he could take care of them easily if he had to fight with them. His main target was the conquest of Demon Lord Guy Crimson. He would make as many Demon Lords as possible obey his orders to conquer that truly powerful person. Working warily and cunningly, the Demon King had no chance at all. Millim was also a truly powerful person, but he seemed to be easily deceived and could not be labeled as a threat. In other words, as long as he could defeat Demon Lord Guy Crimson he would consider what to do afterwards, but. . . . . . In reality, the unexpected had happened, it was interesting!

Yuuki felt a pleasant, uplifting feeling in his heart when the plan did not go as he expected.

Kagurazaka Yuuki is a genius. When she was in the previous world, she had harbored dangerous dreams of destroying her boring everyday life. It was just that, in the former world, he had no attraction for the destruction of the world. Making money was also not a problem for him, if he wanted to, he could obtain it, but for him, there was already nothing he wanted. When Yuuki has just become an elementary school student, his parents are killed by an accident. His parents did nothing wrong, they collided with a truck whose driver had fallen asleep at the wheel, and died instantly. [1] Only Yuuki who slept in the back seat survived. Yuuki thought that it was absurd. The world was too unreasonable, and he was too helpless. Thinking about revenge against that absurd world becomes hilarious. But he quickly got bored with it. He is a genius who can achieve anything he wants. If he really wished for it, it might really be possible to turn the destruction of the world into reality. That's not interesting. This world is so boring. He wasn't lying about his true feelings. But, it could be said that his rampage was suppressed because of that. Although it was a fortune for Yuuki to cross into this world, it had become an accident for others.

Kagurazaka Yuuki traverses the world and gains the power his soul desires. He who wants everything, in fact wants nothing. Therefore he obtained the "power" itself. "Soul power [3]" to freely change the essence [4] as Yuuki wished. The name for it is, ―― Unique Skills 『Creator [5] ―― ―― Its power is a miscalculation for Kazaream who called Yuuki. No, first of all, that being summoned was Yuuki meaning that it was a failure (fate) for Kazaream. Kazaream who was the "Soul of the Drifting [6]" needed several hundred years to prepare for his own resurrection, to increase the agreement with the summoned target. Failure was not allowed in the ceremony, but just in case, he carved a curse emblem that applied his control abilities and performed summoning. The summoned target could not maintain his consciousness and Kazaream had planned to destroy his spirit and kill him. After that he would seize the power of the soul and take over the body to revive. The supposedly perfect agreement was easily broken by Yuuki, the target being summoned. With the soul force that Yuuki obtained, the curse mark was reflected through a reverse analysis. With his own skills turned upside down, Kazaream easily gave up on Yuuki. Then Yuuki went to another world. In this world, a powerful enemy existed; it was a world without boredom. Yuuki rejoiced, he knew the meaning of his own existence in this world. Let us bring destruction to this world. If you want to stop me, show me if you can!

That's Yuuki's code of conduct. Curved retribution against such an unreasonable world. Therefore Yuuki was impatient. It doesn't even matter if he fails. If he succeeds, then the world will be destroyed and he can die in ultimate pleasure and joy. Maybe he will create a new world and become a god, but .. Yuuki hasn't thought that far. His desire is to challenge the world. This was to fulfill his arched desire. Yuuki understood the structure of the world with his genius. First of all, he understood the principle of summoning in the world and created the Unique Skill of 『Caller [7]』. After that, from Kazaream's skill, he created the Unique Skill 『Ruler [8]』. He created the ability after spontaneously understanding the structure and changing it so that he could use it. [9] After that, he will learn the skills he likes from the people he meets and acquire many abilities. Fitting for his genius status, he didn't need much time to obtain extraordinary strength. He gained Unique Skills 『 Looters [10] 』 from Hinata. 『Mathematikonya』 skill is not required for him. The reason was that his mind speed was better. If it was in the previous world, his incredible speed of calculation could quickly burn his brain nerves, but that was not a problem in this world. The reason for that was that when he was summoned to this world, his entire physical constitution was renewed and transformed his body into a kind of spirit life form.

Thus, Yuuki surpassed the limits of this world. Yuuki was confident that his strength would be the same as the Demon King in 10 years. However, he could not be rash. Even if he was confident in his strength, when he realized that his figure had not changed at all, Yuuki already realized that his lifespan was no longer a concern. It doesn't have to be impatient. He will move forward with certainty and caution. Yuuki pushed his plan forward as slowly as he wanted. He might be able to defeat the Demon King, but he wasn't sure. Therefore, he first bought a trump card. Against Leon is Chloe's girl. Fighting Ruminas is a Sleeping Hero. Against Rimuru are Children.

However, that girl Chloe is a Sleeping Hero. He also lost Hinata, who was under his control. But that can't help. He made a contract with Hero Chloe. Against the recently awakened Hero, he attempted to control it using all the power of his Unique Skill 『Ruler』. Yuuki concentrated all his energy into that one skill. Even though he did that, it was an existence that was impossible to completely control. He stops all his plans and decides to take control of the Hero.

「Soon, Hinata will come to save the children. At that time I will fight with Hinata. Therefore, I want you not to interrupt. 」

It's a mistake to bet against Hero Chloe who says she can predict the future. According to Yuuki's prediction, the one who would come was Rimuru who had become the Demon God. When Rimuru comes, he will let Chloe fight him and at that time he intends to gain control over her. But, Yuuki realizes the optimism of his own thinking as the stakes result in failure. Hero Chloe, a possible existence beyond the Laws of the World. Even with his commanding ability, he was an existence that could not be completely overpowered. He was an existence that he could not understand, even with analysis. However, fortunately, he managed to carve the "Curse Seal" on him. Even when he used up all of his "soul power" it was still impossible to control him. Even so, he could order it for three orders. However, this girl had immeasurable potential. But the plan failed completely. Even so, obtaining this Hero still had some potential significance. Above everything. . . . . . It was a mess; it became very interesting!

Demon Lord Leon was in front of him. This guy must be superior to him. Even with Yuuki's ability, he was an unreadable opponent. With Yuuki's ability, he could analyze normal Unique Skills immediately. If he could not read it, then the opponent's rank was higher than Unique Skills. According to Kazaream, he said the attack was a stream of light that destroyed all. It reminded him of the "Disintegration" Hinata used. It was the strongest Holy magic. But Leon didn't need to chant a spell; it seemed like he could activate it instantly and indefinitely. Just the thought of it made him tremble with excitement. And…

《Confirmed. Ultimate Skill Acquisition 『King Grey Mammon [11]』 ・ ・ Succeed》

The voice of the world resounded. In this day, this moment, in this place,

The worst demons are born.
