The Elemental Sword Demon King

Episode 220: Help of the Spirit of Darkness

As soon as the sentence was finished, Tiana's shadow started to tremble like a mirage. A beautiful girl wearing very revealing clothes appeared.

"Sephira Blum!" Screaming loudly, Victoria attacked with her Fire Whip. A very burning crimson fire attacked the witch.

* ᛖ ᛚ ᛜ ᛞ ᛟ ᛗ ᛚᛜ ᛞ ᛟ *

"Ara, the impatient little lady. Come out, demon spirits «Cursed Doll»!"

From the shadow of Sefira, came out a thin and faceless humanoid. The humanoid extended its hand to protect its contractor.

Soon, it was just sent flying by the Victoria Fire Whip.

"Eh?" Victoria was speechless in disappointment, as she initially thought her attack would be blocked.

Crashing into the stone wall, the humanoid lay tilted and helpless like a puppet. Scorched by the crimson flames, its outer shell that resembled black metal melted.

It struggled desperately, trying to escape from the flames, but Aura struck it with a continued attack.

* ᛁᚠ ᚨ ᚾ ᛁ ᛃ ᛇ ᛉ ᛋ ᛒ ᛗ ᛜ ᛟ ᛈ ᛋ *

"Frozen ice net, advanced and translucent, «Frozen Ground»!"

Many frozen arrows rained down from above, smashing his arms.

(This thing is a contracted spirit «Devil Witch»? Regardless, it was too weak. This seems a bit suspicious!)

"You think you can beat us alone?"

"Fufuu, the true value of «Cursed Doll» lies not in hardness, but in other abilities."

While dodging the ice arrow of Aura, the mage recited the words to release the contracted Spirit.

* ᛋ ᛏ ᛒ ᛖ ᚠ ᚢ ᛇ ᛉ ᛋ ᛒ ᚦ ᚨ ᚱᚲ ᚹ ᚺ ᚾ ᛁ ᛃ ᛇ ᛈ ᛉ ᛋ ᛏ ᛒ ᛖ ᛚ ᛜ ᛞ ᛟ ᛗ ᛚᛜ ᛞ ᛟ*

"You, the weakest of the weak and the strongest of the strong, heed my command and hereby take shape!"

"I won't let you succeed!"

With a flying jump, Eve made a stab using «Ray Hawk» but ended up taking a step late. A pure white mask appeared in the hands of the witch.

*ᚠᚷ ᚠᚢ ᚦ ᚨ ᚱ ᚲ ᚹᚺ ᚾ ᛟ *

"Elemental aero, «Masked Lucifer»."

In the blink of an eye, Sefira's red lips twisted as the shadow of her figure distorted like a mirage.

Victoria, Aura, and Eve gasped at the same time. There was a beautiful girl with beautiful black hair and mysterious pitch-black eyes.

She wore exotic foreign clothing with a relatively long lower end and resembled ritual attire. In his left hand, he held a dark demon sword that exuded a disastrous aura.

"How can..."

The winner of the Sword Style Festival three years earlier. «The Strongest Sword Style Holder», Rei Assar, is now present before them.

POV: Kirigaya Kaizo

_____________________________________

"Ohhhhhhh!"

«Devil Killer» traces the bow that exterminated the herd of demon spirits. Faced with attacks from abnormally shaped creatures, Kaizo slashed, slashed, and sliced incessantly.

Watching the sword style that seemed to be performed by a fierce god, Xuan's eyes widened as he performed his ritual dance, "That guy, is he really human?"

Ten minutes had passed since the sword style began, the light of the Nyx Rune remained bright without fading. The magic circle depicted on the ground gives Kaizo continuous power through «Leylines».

"Said, with such an amount, it was still quite exhausting." Kaizo smiled wryly as he slashed at some demon spirits. Although he had defeated hundreds of these demon spirits, the horde showed no signs of diminishing in size.

(I really don't know if my stamina can hold out until Victoria and the girls come back.)

At this moment, sensing the presence of the invading enemy from behind, Kaizo turned around and slashed down. However, that slash only cut through empty space.

"What!?"

At that moment, jet-black lightning had been unleashed, reducing the demon spirit to charcoal.

(Did Ling protect me? No, the spirit magic just now was.).

Suddenly, jet-black fur floated in front of the tip of Kaizo's nose.

Black hair fluttered in the wind, as if it was woven from the night itself. Twisting the darkness dress, touching the ground lightly was a black-winged angel.

"Allen?"

Seeing Kaizo speechless, the dark spirit girl smiled as she chuckled, "Good night, Kaizo."

The dark spirit girl looked around and said, "Finally, my strength has recovered to the point where it allows me to take on this appearance. Although I am far from peak condition, I have more than enough strength to play with some low-level spirits."

"You really intend to help?"

"Yes. This kind of bait will not help your awakening no matter how much you defeat. Let me use this opportunity to play for a while."

Alicia unleashed jet-black lightning from her fingertips, turning some demon spirits into charcoal.

"Are you not going to turn into my sword?" Kaizo joked with his past partner.

"Ara, my jealousy is deepening, you know? Please cancel your contract with the holy sword first, we'll talk."

"Sorry, it really can't help."

"Stupid!" Alicia pouted as if sulking and glared at the demonic spirit in front of her, venting her anger at them.

* ᚠᛈ ᛉ ᛋ ᚢ ᚱ ᚲ ᛟ ᛈ ᛋ ᛏ ᚷ ᚠ ᛞ ᛟ ᚢ ᚦ ᚨ ᚱ ᚲ ᚹᚺ ᚾ ᛁ ᛃ ᛇ ᛈ ᛉ ᛋ ᛏ ᛒ ᛖ ᛗ ᛚ *

"O black sword of darkness, capable of destroying dragon scales, annihilating my enemy, «Arc Blast»."

Instantly, numerous flashes of lightning descended from the sky, obliterating all of the demon spirits in the area.

"You're still merciless as always."

As Kaizo's face twitched, Alicia turned to face him again and said, "Hey, you must be listening, right? Miss Legendary Holy Sword?" He spoke provocatively.

At the moment, «Demon Slayer» in Kaizo hand shines with a dazzling light. It was as if it was acting defiantly in response to Alicia.

"Why don't we have a contest? Let's see who can ultimately defeat more enemies, you or me?"

The white silver sword in Kaizo's hand shone even brighter.

POV: Tiana Von

_____________________________________

From a distance, the sound of weapons in action could be heard. Chained and held back, Tiana bit her lips hard, "Kaizo and the others are fighting."

With the power of a sealed spirit contract, she was just a weak and helpless girl. Simply put an imprisoned princess is waiting to be saved by her prince.

(I hate this!)

As he fought desperately, the metal restraints dug deeper into his wrist.

If he had only destroyed his own «Magic Stone», he should have been able to spare his team-mates from trouble. But with his wrist on hold at the moment, he couldn't even do that.

(No, even though I can go back to their side, I'm still helpless.)

Maybe he'll burden them instead of helping. Such worries boiled in his mind.

At this moment, suddenly a loud bang from the boots echoed within the cave.

"Who is that?" Tiana asked in the direction of the darkness.

(That can't be Sefira. That witch must be busy confronting Kaizo and the others.)

Suddenly, a small flame lit up in the darkness. Illuminated by the twinkling light it was a red mask.

"Rei Assar!?" Tiana exclaimed with wide eyes in astonishment as the masked girl approached without a sound.

"What do you want..."

"Don't move. Unless you want your wrists to be charcoal." Whispering softly, he then touched the handcuffs with his fiery hands.
