NovelEnglishHe controlled the power, angle and aim to a hairsbreadth to hit the exact same spot on each blade. Doing that many times over, even the demon swords <Zess Ides> will accrue damage.
“I didn’t say anything as revealing my secret would become disadvantageous.”
Ray says without appearing to be worried.
“Plus it was a handicap.”
Izel moves back and fixes his stance.
“……Apparently, I’ve made light of you little boy. From here on I won’t hold back…….”
Magic formations appear on Izel’s hands.
Flames rise from the demon sword Zess and ice covers the blade of Ides.
“This is the true form of <Zess Ides>. Prepare yourself!”
Izel’s figure blurs and the next moment he steps forward swinging his blades at high speeds.
200 consecutive attacks in 1 second. There’s no gap for Ray to escape the fire and ice flying at him.
“……Fuu……!”
Ray breathes out and his sword flashes. Each flash equals the flashes from Izel’s swords.
“Four hundred and forty two.”
“…Wha…..? How…..? It should have been useless trying to aim for the chips……”
Doesn’t seem like Ray intends to answer so I answer instead.

“It’s quite difficult though.” Ray says with a cool face “I can only fight your twin swords using sword pressure.”
After Ray’s statement that sounded regretful Izel looks at Ray with a face full of anger.
“In that case, how long can your tightrope walk last! Show it to me!!”
Izel’s swords glitter and Ray brushes them off.
“Your sword style is certainly amazing but hows your stamina? I can go on for a century at this ra—”
Izel’s words are cut off.
The blades of flame and ice shattered with their tips flying thought he air before lodging in the ground.
“…..My double swords……..broke…….”
“Four hundred and forty four. That’s pretty much what I estimated.”
I wondered if that is what he was counting. The number of blows before the twin swords broke.
“By the way.” Ray says with a cool look “When are you going to teach me how to use a demon sword?”
Ray has a refreshing smile on his face but Izel shrinks back as if feeling fear.
Izel turns my way as if to ask for help but finally notices that I’d won too.
“….After all…… who are you guys…….? There’s never been anyone who could treat us old seven demon emperors like children……” Izel says while bowing his head.
I turned my eyes towards Ray.
“Ray. Were you holding back?”
“Not at all.”
“Drop the modesty. With your power, you could have crossed blades without them breaking.”
Ray puts on a cool smile and answers.
“If I’d done that then I wouldn’t have been able to practise.”
“Hou?”
“I wondered if it was possible to break those swords using only skill and no magic. Only at the end, I managed it. I’ve still got a long way to go.”
Kukuku. Yare yare. He’s a funny guy.
You used one of the old seven demon emperors as a training partner.
How interesting. By any means, I want to see how deep his power goes.
“Come at me seriously tomorrow.”
Without breaking his smile Ray answers
“What do you mean?”
“If you try and practise against me you will die.”
“If possible, I’d like to ask that I not die.”
An easygoing answer as ever.
“Whatever, do as you like.”
“I’ll survive then.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI couldn’t help but laugh before answering.
“You make me want to get serious.”
After looking at me with a blank expression Ray laughed as well.
“Arnos-kun…….you’re a bit of a sadist aren’t you?”
“What are you on about? There’s no mazoku more gentle than me.”
“Well, I’d appreciate it if you went easy on me.”
“Ha. Don’t say stupid things. Your body isn’t saying that.”
He’s not as dissatisfied as he’d have us believe.
He’s not warlike but he definitely doesn’t dislike fighting otherwise he wouldn’t practise the sword so much.
“At any rate, I’m hungry after this bit of exercise.”
“The classrooms empty. Want to go back to class and eat?”
“Is that okay?”
“It’s fine. We’ll sneak off.”
“Roger. Sneaky is it?”
While chatting away we leave the barrier with all the students watching us.
“….Nee. Hang on a sec. You both easily defeated two of the old seven demon emperors so what’s with this everyday life feeling? Why are you sneaking off to eat…….?”
As usual, Sasha is complaining about something or another.
(1) Not a mistake. The author appears to have changed his name from Idol. I just checked in case it was me but it was Idol all last chapter and now its Izel.
