Tensei Shitara Slime Datta

Chapter 133: Leon vs. Yuuki pt1

The main skill of 『King Diverse Mammon』 is the ability specializing in eliminating.

As expected, the most vile characters were endowed with evil abilities.

A moment before, Yuuki was in a very disadvantageous position. It might be possible that Chloe joined the fight, the tables might be able to play, but Yuuki wanted to avoid it.

How many times Chloe can be ordered is set 3 times. In addition, the order was consumed through his first command "Don't bother me".

This was the greatest command he could achieve than Chloe could. If he wanted him to serve faithfully, even all desires would not be enough.

Simply command Chloe not to antagonize her, forcing her all her might. Nevertheless, he has taken countermeasures to prevent the possible resurrection of Chloe from this Curse of Domination.

Yuuki must use every ounce of his soul to maintain his soul contract.

And now, even though Ultimate Yuuki's own skill had awakened, he decided not to use his power.

Chloe's specialty is combat. Even so, Yuuki did not fail to consider the possibility that Chloe was trying to cancel the contract any time she was with him.

After all, he almost succeeded a second ago.

「I understand ... I think he is very quiet, but he tried to cancel the contract with me, yes?」

Yuuki said, shrugging.

Chloe remained silent, with a bitter expression.

Leaving aside whether the venture would succeed or not, the fact remained that he tried.

Well, that is indeed true, Yuuki thought. Unless you're an idiot, it's not natural for someone to just obey.

「Yah whatever. I seem to have made it in time. Now, Leon. Should we continue? 」

Yuuki nodded in regards to Chloe's reaction, and faced Leon.

Leon scowled at the happy expression on Yuuki's face.

With both sides now possessing the ultimate skill, Leon had already lost his lead.

But situation wise, Leon still has the advantage.

Yuuki might have already been aware of his main skill, but his energy had yet to recover.

He's still stuck with whatever's left of dominating Chloe.

But Yuuki still refused to use his ace card. He wants to win with what he already has.

Yuuki kept thinking, but the current situation remained unfavorable.

Silver Knight Alrose is currently fighting face to face with Kagali. Both sides are balanced.

At the same time, Leon's strongest subordinate, Black Knight Claude, along with the red knight and blue knight fight against Yuuki's subordinates.

The Black Knight Claude displayed incredible strength in battle.

Yuuki's subordinates, who originally numbered over 10, were now reduced to only 5. And even now, the others were cut down by his attacks.

And then there are 4. They plan to help Alrose in the fight against Kagari after cleaning up the small fries.

「Wait a minute, Yuuki-sama! If this continues, will we not be killed ?! 」

Being somewhat desperate, Kagali continuously avoided Alrose.

See the struggle,

「You are really weak not」

Yuuki answered Kagari with disdain.

「But I guess having this be a one-sided massacre doesn't bother me, so how about I go offensive?」

He slipped behind the red knight.

And while avoiding the sword slashing towards him,

「Stole life」

And then, a palm stuck to the Red Knight's chest.

As soon as Yuuki raised his palm, the Red Knight curled up on the spot.

[Editor has just realized that this knight is based off the rangers ..]

「Red Knights?」

「Nee-san!」

The Red Knight did not respond to the shouts of Black Knight Claude and Blue Knight.

Or rather, he couldn't. The reason is that he's dead.

「There's no point calling you know? That's because, I just took that guy's life 」

Seeming like his strength was recovering a little, Yuuki stated the facts with icy cold words.

This, is no longer a battle.

Only the Depriver, and the snatched.

Between the two, there was a desperate gap.

Defeating all of Yuuki's subordinates, the Blue Knight rushed towards the Red Knight to confirm what he had stated.

Her sister showed no signs of movement.she was without a doubt, already dead.

"You !"

The Blue Knight was furious, though,

「Oi oi, it's a battle, isn't it?

You have killed my subordinates as well, haven't you, not been angry because this is a bit unreasonable? 」

TN: This guy …

In response to Yuuki's words, their killing intent increased.

As for Leon, after seeing Yuuki's abilities he realized how serious the situation was.

Even if it had just woken up, Yuuki had already completely mastered its abilities. In the first place, leveling the playing field is something beyond his calculations.

Leon did not underestimate Yuuki. However, he concludes that Yuuki must be exterminated before being given a chance to grow because of how unpredictable and dangerous he is.

Of course he wants to save Chloe as soon as possible; however, the circumstances of their time are dictated towards solo action.

Therefore, he decided to retreat.

All of Yuuki's subordinates had been eliminated; all that was left was the woman known as Kagali. Although he was worried about that ferocious gaze, his wise strength did not seem like a big deal.

But with an ability that steals the soul of an opponent without resistance through touch, Leon judges that Yuuki is too dangerous for Leon and his friends.

「Pull for now” 」

Leon decided, and immediately ordered.

「Leon-sama, allow me to be the back row!」

Black Knight Claude shouted, and appeared in front of Leon, near the wall facing Yuuki.

「Ara? Leon did you run away? I'm not going to let anything like that, you know? 」

Yuuki revealed a beaming smile, manipulating the surrounding trees and blocking Leon's path of retreat.

However, something of this level was unlikely to deter Leon. Bright with the highest skill "King of Purity Metatron" gathered in his palm, Leon forcefully smashed the trees and paved the way.

Although Leon tries to trigger transfer magic, his efforts only result in confusion.

「“ Ha ha, you can not use the transfer here you know? Don't you know? One of the reasons I chose this place is because it closes all attempts to escape via 」 transfer

Yuuki said, with pleasure.

Then, without missing out on opportunities from a failed transfer

「Timpa」

Yuuki's hand touched Claude's Black Knight's shoulder.

Despite being caught off guard for a moment, Claude took evasive steps. Thanks to that, he did not fall like the Red Knight.

No, something was wrong, and when Leon noticed, he noticed,

「Yuuki-sama, my name is Claude. What is your order! 」

Black Knight Sir Claude, kneel towards Yuuki.

The worst development has happened.

What Yuuki can lose is not limited to one's life.

Their lives, abilities, and even their minds.

No matter how deeply their fidelity is ingrained into their psyche, by rewriting the information within their psyche, it is possible to instill loyalty in themselves.

Such is Yuuki's main skill ability "Avarice King Mammon".

「Ahaha, now excluding Chloe, finally the number is 3 to 3! We're finally even, huh? 」

Yuuki laughed happily, though,

「As expected, you have a very good personality, Yuuki-sama ……

But, Leon. Seeing you make that face filled me with endless excitement. ”

A cheerful smile appears in Kagali (Kazalim).

「You , what do you do for Claude?」

Leon asked,

「I just took your subordinates. Isn't everyone okay with that?

If the target swears allegiance to anyone, this skill will not work.

Overwriting is an ability that allows me to rewrite on whom loyalty is directed. 」

Yuuki who replied cheerfully turned to check on Claude to confirm his feelings.

From Claude's appearance he succeeded,

TN Comments: $ 20 dollars bet anyone that this ability will fail to affect Shion when they fight.

「But this ability is very useful」

He laughed, satisfied.

Perhaps it is best to call this evil incarnate power.

The higher their level of loyalty, the easier it was for them to fall into Yuuki's hands.

Kagali was overjoyed by Leon's dire situation, and the Black Knight Claude who had betrayed naturally pointed his sword towards Leon without hesitation.

As Yuuki claims, excluding Chloe, this has turned into a 3 versus 3 battle.

Moreover, the situation had become extremely unfavorable for Leon.

But even in the midst of this unfortunate situation, Leon's heart did not waver.

Considering Yuuki's personality, one should have expected him to set up some kind of trap.

He seems to have not activated the trap, yet Leon already understood the nature of this trap.

TN Note: Leon's name hasn't come up yet, but I took the liberty to make it flow a little better.

The magnetic field that interfered with the transfer magic, floated the miasma. The uncharted mountain where most dragons lived and humans rarely came, a mysterious place.

But even if his assumptions were correct, and the trap had indeed appeared, it would not cause any discomfort to Leon.

(In that case, Rimuru and Ruminas, who were focused on magical attributes, would be very troubled if they fought against him)

He muttered to himself.

His eyes sparkled for a moment when his gaze met Chloe.

Don't despair in this state, his gaze conveyed his intentions strongly.

Looking at Claude who was once a loyal subject, then looking back at Chloe, Chloe nodded weakly.

(Something can be done, right? Well ... The Red Knight may not be able to, but ..)

Yuuki must have thought that this state of affairs was really uncomfortable for Leon, but he misunderstood that Leon really did not care much about his subordinates. He used them as long as they were useful; he had no obligation to protect them.

No matter which of his subordinates you ask for, no one hopes to be protected by him.

In fact, every single one of them would be ecstatic at the chance to perish as his shield.

(Although that's the case, it doesn't mean they want to die)

At one point he thought of retreating because his subordinates were a hindrance.

Every time Leon gets serious, the people around him get caught up in it. Precisely because of this, he turned down jobs with Rimuru and Ruminas.

And when he thought of retreating, Claude had his subordinates stolen.

This was no longer a situation he could let continue.

Leon looked at the Red Knight, and gently killed the anger in his heart. Leon was a king, to put aside the death of his subordinates should not be something that existed.

The enemies are Yuuki and Kagari.

Claude might be Leon's strongest subordinate, but he knew him like the palm of his hand. He's not Leon's enemy.

Kagali seems like a female demon that uses familiar tricks. He seems to hold a serious grudge against Leon, but he can't remember.

His heart was not big enough to remember the grudges of each and every small fry. He seems to be good at using curse spells, but not at a level worthy of being called a threat.

It's okay to ignore this woman, Leon thought.

In that case, the only enemy here is Yuuki.

Yuuki was a real pain, having awakened the highest skill here. He really is a man who gains strength in the face of adversity.

But……

Leon smiled faintly.

"Do you? Major skills are not the same — there may be differences between them equally great between heaven and earth !! 」

"What?"

「I change my mind, I will not retreat, I will bury you here」

Leon's main skill was the pinnacle of the light class, an existence that could be called a curse from being derived from magic.

And, Leon knew someone who possessed the Ultimate Skill.

He tried to confront him once, and his defeat was so overwhelming that it could not be called a fight at all.

―― "Master of Darkness" Guys ・ Crimson――

The strongest of the Demon Lords.

Leon made full use of his Ultimate skill, and attacked with full force. The result was a total defeat.

After defeating Kazalim, Guy ・ Crimson visits aimlessly to issue a challenge. If he wins, he will be allowed to do what he wants, if he loses Leon is to be Guy's friend.

Leon comes with the intention to kill, and Guy just defends all of his attacks as if he is playing around.

The experience of defeat has made Leon strong.

After all, in a battle between Ultimate skill holders, the key to victory was to understand the opponent's abilities first.

If one cannot understand what has happened, then defeat is inevitable. For Leon, Guy is a man who can beat other people.

Thus, for someone without the ultimate skill, winning against those with the skill was impossible. Go as far as preparing a number of things to prevent confrontation.

It was beyond his calculations for Yuuki to come here and then awaken the ultimate skill as he did, yet this was not enough to determine Leon's defeat.

For hundreds of years, Leon familiarized himself with his skills. Since Yuuki had just woken up, his understanding of his skills was not perfect yet.

And that's good. If he were to awaken his abilities in the darkness, he would definitely be troublesome when Leon would face him.

(The shoots of threat should be picked here and now)

In front of Leon, the evil young man Kagurazaka Yuuki, is finally recognized as an enemy that must be eradicated.

Yuuki felt, that the atmosphere of the handsome blonde man in front of him, Leon ・ Cormwell, had changed.

What, what is it ……? He thinks .

In a flash of light — Leon himself, Yuuki could only watch Claude be blown away.

With a powerful punch from Leon's bare hands, the jet black armor of Black Knight Sir. Claude was half-destroyed, making him unable to fight.

While staring at Claude who was blown into Chloe's crowd, he clicked his tongue, saying,

「Chloe, can you cure the man? I'd rather have my comrade make after much effort than a dead subordinate 」

He's calling Chloe.

"Sure, why not"

Is that an order? No, and there's an explanation for that.

If the curse is not used, it will be treated as Chloe's will rather than an order.

The exchange, which had been going on for a few days now, made Yuuki able to fight without much effort at this point.

But Leon's current attack speed was at a level where Yuuki could barely react.

Apparently, the demon king Leon was furious.

(So he's this strong! Even with my abnormal strength, capturing it would be dangerous.

I deliberately tried to make him angry... But I guess I failed?)

TN Note: Oh no, it was a success. It was actually a bit too big of a real success.

In fact, even in this situation Yuuki was thinking funny thoughts.

「You guys, come back first. And then, tell Ruminas and Rimuru about what happened to her. 」

Silver Knight Alrose and the Blue Knight could only nod at Leon's instructions.

If Leon who was his master fought seriously, they noticed that they would only become a burden. Moreover, they were afraid of causing trouble if they were stolen by the other party.

Although his sister was killed, the Blue Knight did not fail to calmly understand the current situation. They quickly retreated without complaint.

Confirming the two who were quickly preparing for their escape,

「I won't let that!」

Kagali tried to disturb her doll tree,

「You seem to underestimate me」

Under the light that Leon released, all the trees shattered and disappeared.

「Geh, jeez !!」

Realizing that Leon's attack was directed at her, Kagali quickly darted behind Chloe.

「Wait, wait a minute Chloe-chan. You're protecting me too right? 」

Unexpectedly, Kagari tries to overcome Chloe's defense.

And it amazes everyone, too,

「I don't really mind ..」

Chloe answered, Chloe,

"Good! As expected, Chloe Chan was really good. As expected of the hero! 」

Kagali looked happy and happily rubbed Chloe's cheeks with her own cheeks, Chloe pushed her away in disgust.

「Oh well, the order of things has changed」

Said Leon,

「Hey, hey, Yuuki-sama! Can't you hear what he's saying?

Do you seriously think you can win? 」

Recalling the trauma of defeat, the frightened Kagali shouted.

He clearly left behind hopes of appearing calm.

After all, even after several hundred years there stood the figure of Leon.

Mentally he has hurt Kagali

"You… . You really have a great personality, you know …?

Shut up and watch how I win this 」

In reality, Yuuki wasn't sure he had the ability to say that.

When Leon's subordinates escape, he considers pursuing but Leon's current condition persuades him.

Clearly, there was free time for Leon, and ignoring him was a suicide. Kagali was careless and still alive just because she was not a direct target.

No, maybe he just returned Yuuki's favor by ignoring his subordinate's escape. And perhaps, the light released from Leon's skill was an attack that would engulf those around him.

He simply avoided using it to not injure his own subordinates. Maybe it is.

(Now I've done it; I feel like I'm trending on a tiger's tail)

TN Note: This is a Japanese idiom, meaning he took a big risk.

Even when Yuuki thought of such things, a smile crept on his face.

Really, if he asked for Rimuru and Ruminas' help, Yuuki wouldn't stand a chance.

He has to use his ace and even then he is likely to fall.

And even if he played this card now, Leon would be defeated, but Yuuki also lost.

Well, what can he do?

With Chloe the battle will be won quickly. But using it to kill one man, Leon would be useless. And maybe he could fight a single demon king.

In that case, all he had to do was try

He had finally obtained the highest skill; it would be futile not to test him.

「Now, Leon. You're more dangerous than you show.

Even so, victory will be mine. 」

「Say as much nonsense as you want. You, underestimating the demon lord. Time to face reality 」

Their auras clashed creating a lighting that flashed between heaven and earth.

No more conversations to be had.

It was in vain but the battle remained.
