In the entire capital of the Kingdom of Farmus, there was no one alive under Ultima's forbidden magic.
Their souls have also lost their vitality, and their bodies will soon decay and weather with time. They will be imprisoned on this land, and will forever bear the pain caused by the curse before turning into ashes.
There are still living creatures here, except for the two who are confronting each other outside the palace - Ultima and Lassen.
Larson used his inability to protect the monarch, his subjects and his people and his anger towards his enemies to cover up his inner fear, and stared at Ultima who was full of pleasure.
He is indeed a devil, he doesn't even spare innocent people, he is so vicious.
But he could only stand on the palace, waiting for Ultima to reach the distance where she planned to talk to him.
"Ah ho." Ultima appeared in his field of vision very easily and greeted him with a bright tone.
"Why don't you try to resurrect the king and the subjects you want to protect? With the power of that body, you might be able to succeed." She asked jokingly.
"What a joke are you talking about, devil? Even if you can do it, as long as your curse is not lifted, it will only make them feel the pain caused by the poison curse that is worse than death!" Larsen gritted his teeth.
This was the reason why he didn't know how to take action. The magic used by Ultima did kill everyone, but the magic was set up so that as long as she was defeated, those people would still be able to survive.
With Larson's current strength, a fight with Ultima would definitely destroy everything around him, including the corpses of the royal family and subjects!
Although Larsen used despicable means to deal with the "beautiful monster princess", his heart to protect the kings and people of his country is true.
Ultima, as a veritable devil, was playing tricks on him, and had no intention of taking responsibility for this tragedy. The publicity to take the blame had already been put in place. It was possible that in the future, those who were still in the way would fall nearby and have their souls taken away.
I plan to join the ranks of those allowed to be resurrected.
However, she felt that she seemed to be too merciful because she served Rimuru. In the past, if she had encountered a guy who did something that was the same as having his contract broken, the original devil would have at least caused the entire country a little bit of pain.
The earth will never give up until it is drowned in a sea of blood.
Red and White were very famous for doing this historically.
"How about changing to a better place to fight? You also want to take your contract owner's body back intact, right?" Larsen asked tentatively.
"Alala, this is what people who are dying would say. However, we happen to be very kind." Ultima activated [Familiar Summon], summoning Neptune, who was also purple, and several other guardians.
A high-level demon was summoned.
"Neptune, go kill the guy who is occupying the body of Lord Cronpis." Ultima ordered.
"Huh?" Neptune was stunned for a moment. There was no reason not to obey the order of the Supreme Ancestor, but even if he advanced to a high-level demon general, killing that one would be an impossible task, right?
"But, that is-"
The moment Neptune hesitated, one of her ears was pulled out by Ultima along with a mass of flesh and hair around it!
"Don't get carried away just because Master Crounpis liked your face, gave him a name himself, and got a loaned ultimate power fragment! Remember your position. The people here will do everything they can to protect you.
"
Neptune then recalled what the original Purple's true character was like. The Demon Kingdom was once too comfortable, and Ultima's contract owner was able to crush her to death, so she did not show the tyranny of the past.
, and is also very good at being a good girl, making Neptune relax along with her.
"Understood." Neptune used [Chessia, the Fallen King] on several other Purple Familiars to absorb all the inorganic vitality and demonic energy they used to maintain the body of Graeme in this world.
The breath slowly rises.
Larson was slightly relieved by the devil's arrogance. It seemed that he was planning to let the one who was present to witness the persecution of the "beautiful monster princess" to kill him and trample on his dignity.
"Who gave you the illusion that you're going to have a one-on-one fight? [Grudge and Crime Destroyer]!"
Ultima suddenly flashed into Larsen's blind spot without any warning, aimed at Larsen's back and stabbed him with his hand. Larsen felt the aura on the tip of his fingernail that made him feel that something was wrong, and instantly reflexively released [Shenra Tenzheng]
].
Before the nails pierced the body, Ultima who was behind him and Neptune who was attacking from the front were kicked away hard.
However, severe pain immediately hit him.
"Damn it, is it poison again! You are indeed a devil who is accustomed to poison!"
It was not an ordinary poison. His body had sufficient resistance to this poison, but he felt that his spirit and soul were burning and gradually melting. With his own ability, he had a chance to eliminate it, but only if no one disturbed him.
"Hmph," Ultima followed the repulsion and moved away from the battle circle, sat down and entered the spectator mode, "You'd better abandon this body as soon as possible. Otherwise, your soul will be completely melted by the toxins injected into it... Hmm...
, let’s do the math, although you are just a three-legged cat, you are still pretty good according to human standards. Even if you die, my poison will forcibly prolong your spiritual awareness time, which is enough for you to continue to feel pain for three hundred years.
Many years."
While Larson summoned the "torch" and turned it into a lightsaber to fight with Neptune, he warned himself that this was the devil's intention to sway him, and if he followed it, it would be exactly what he wanted.
"Damn it, what's going on with this guy? He's obviously just a high-level demon general!"
The sword light wielded by Larsen will explode with powerful magic power every time, with the special effect of burning souls. If the opponent is an ordinary high-level demon general, with his own strength, he has a chance to severely damage and kill the opponent instantly, and even escape mentally.
The timing of the devil's world doesn't give a single chance.
This body's eyes also have the ability to predict the opponent's future attacks and the ability to reproduce past attacks. These are all abilities that are even more powerful in battle. Larson discovered them with great difficulty.
But facing Neptune, these seemed to be completely useless. Neptune even sometimes used injury-for-injury tactics to fight him.
Neptune was given the skill [Energy Absorption] due to the incomplete performance of [Chessia, Lord of the Fallen]. Larsen used a lightsaber for melee combat in order to avoid the battle from affecting the monarch and his ministers, which was naturally a mistake.
No matter how powerful the lightsaber's sword light is, it will be absorbed by Neptune, even if the "Eye of Bubble" is used to reproduce the past attack.
And Neptune has the skill [Cyan Heart] that interferes with the opponent's consciousness, allowing her to absorb the opponent's attack every time or hit the opponent. After forming an effective judgment, the opponent will forget these things and return to the state when they first met.
I had no idea what was going on, so I couldn't change my tactics.
Didn't Crounpis discover a lot of his original damage-immune skills?
