Episode 100

─ Drink this blood.
Contrary to popular belief, Ray Yuris was not the ‘adopted son’ of the Blood Lord.
─ With this, you will be freed from the shackles of humanity and reborn as part of a great clan.
One who inherits the legacy of blood accumulated by a great clan.
《Young Blood》.
What flowed through Ray Yuris’ body was the history of his clan’s blood and the power of blood ties, and it was incomparable to the bond between a parent and a child.
‘I will never disappoint you, Father.’
So, after making up his mind, Ray Yuris raised his head. The eldest son of the Saxon family, the ‘Black Prince’, was there.
The Empire’s greatest genius, the victor of the Black and White Rotation, the war hero of the island of Britannia… … .
The very embodiment of absurdity, a symbol of the unfairness of this world.
“──『King of Cold Ashes』.”
The silence ends here. By defeating the Black Prince of Saxony, Ray Yuris will prove his existence to the ‘Clan’.
The grimoire of ‘Demon King Balor’, who was once defeated by the hands of a warrior.
In the midst of the whirlwind of fire and darkness, the power of thought held by the leader of the demon tribe was revealed.
In the lake of darkness, the stinging tentacles of the Shadow Lurker descended, and Ray Yuris’ body began to scatter like a pile of ash.
Even though he can’t yet unleash all of that power, it’ll be enough to at least take down a single child from Saxony.
The history that is embedded in Ray’s blood cannot be changed by the ‘mere talent’ of the Black Prince of Saxony.
‘I will defeat the greatest genius in the empire here.’
Fire and darkness swirled, forming the shape of a Death Knight.
That day, the black power that was obtained by eating the elder of the black tower.
The Death Knight of Flame, built on that very power, re-grabbed the black sword. The sword of fire and darkness was swung, and the black flames contained in the sword evaporated the lake of darkness.
In the lake, the shadow lurkers revealed their terrible nature: countless numbers of Shadow Lurkers.
The moment the predator in the darkness reveals its adult form and confronts the Death Knight of Flame.
Dale opened his mouth.
“Quad Barrel”, “12 Gauge Birdshot”.
A strange, otherworldly sound echoed through Ray. Four gun barrels, and birdshot.
Buckshot is used to hunt large animals such as deer or cows, and contains six or seven large, deadly lead balls in a single shot shell… … Birdshot is used to hunt small animals such as birds, and contains hundreds of small lead balls in a single shot shell.
And now, what Dale was trying to shoot was by no means an attack with the intent to kill.
Four blue gun barrels rippled behind him, scattering the Blue Dissonance contained within them.
“Do you know why Death Knights aren’t built with fire or cold?”
“… … !”
“Because there is nothing more difficult than maintaining a creature made of magic.”
For example, if what we have now is just a normal Death Knight, it will not be affected by the 《Blue Dissonance》 scattered by Dale.
Since what the dissonance breaks is the magical structure, not the flesh and bones or armor of the dead, it is virtually impossible to find the black particles that are delicately embedded within the corpse.
However, Ray Yuris’ Death Knight had no substance. The flames and darkness that made it up were magical constructs made up of his magic.
In other words, no power can be used in the face of dissonance that distorts the magic structure itself. It is not for nothing that blue magicians are called the natural enemies of magicians.
The only one who can so easily take down Ray’s Flame Death Knight is the ‘Blue Wizard’.
Unfortunately, that very same blue wizard was in front of Ray Yuris.
“Do you think someone who doesn’t understand the meaning of black can win by blindly imitating the technique?”
Dale asked back.
Before long, Ray Yuris’ body had turned to ashes and was scattered throughout the room, and there was no longer any human presence there.
At the same time, the ashes of death began to scatter. Inevitable death scattered everywhere.
Ashes settled into the room, and the place began to corrode and weather, as if a clock had been rewinded.
The grimoire of the leader of the demon tribe, the Demon King Balor──『The King of Cold Ashes』.
The ashes of death began to swirl towards Dale, and Dale drew his knightly sword from his waist. Drawing it, he poured his thoughts along the blade.
The power contained in the warrior’s beloved sword, Peacemaker.
Peacemaker.
At the same time, the ashes of death swept towards Dale. The particles of annihilation that nothing could escape enveloped Dale, and yet.
“… … !”
Dale’s body, no, the power of the ash that Ray Yuris was scattering, disappeared.
It was just a pile of ashes scattered around in an ordinary manner.
Ray Yuris would never have imagined that.
The power of the Peacemaker that Dale is showing off here and now.
《Forced Peace》.
And that ‘peace’ meant only one thing.
A barrier that nullifies all “irreversible and irreversible attacks” that occur in the area.
A sword cannot tear human flesh. Flames cannot burn anything, nor can they annihilate or destroy anything. At least, within this barrier where the power of the Peacemaker is in effect, it is impossible to break that ‘peace’.
Even that is only a fragment of the warrior’s power, but the power of the Demon King that Ray Yuris is using is not much different. No, it was so immature and childish that it couldn’t even be called a ‘fragment’. At least, the power of the Demon King that Dale remembered, and the book of magic he possessed, were not limited to this level.
As is the Peacemaker in Dale’s hand.
‘It is very risky to show the warrior’s power recklessly.’
But just as he scattered the Blue Dissonance, Dale proved that he had the makings of a blue wizard.
So even if Ray Yuris’s secret technique is nullified, there will be no reason for them to be suspicious.
Because it is ‘possible’ for the greatest genius in the empire to reverse the opponent’s magic.
Dale took a step forward, holding the Peacemaker in his hands. In the peace he enforced, Dale’s proud Death Knight and Shadow Lurker were no exception.
Except for one, the very enforcer of peace.
Ray Yuris’ body was left in ashes scattered across the area, but to Dale, it was no big deal.

“Freeze.”
Dale muttered softly, swirling with a power that was not black, but thoroughly blue.
The entire stadium began to freeze, projecting the cold and darkness that was embedded in Dale’s world.
“──!”
Ray Yuris’s body, which was scattered in all directions, gathered into one point.
Ray Yuris stared at me, his body enveloped in fire and darkness.
He activated the bizarrely twisted bio-fusion artifact, ‘Dragon’s Jawbone’. His mouth, which was strangely twisted like a dragon’s maw, moved.
“how…….”
The Death Knight of Flames, and the Ashes of Death. The devastating blows that were launched with all their might from the beginning were all rendered useless.
In front of him, the ‘Black Prince’ didn’t even hesitate a bit.
“Even after seeing the black magic, did you think I wouldn’t use the power of a blue magician?”
Dale bluffed calmly, while Ray Uris remained silent.
“Do you know about this grimoire?”
“Is there anyone who doesn’t know that grimoire?”
After a moment of silence, Ray asked back, and Dale answered calmly.
“I also know that you don’t have the strength to handle it right now.”
Ray Yuris doesn’t have the ability to handle the ‘King of Cold Ashes’ right now. Even Dale right now, just like the ability to use the ‘Book of the Black Goat’ during the 3rd Circle era isn’t that great.
“… …Why didn’t you take out the grimoire?”
“Because I don’t have the grimoire yet.”
Dale answered as if it were someone else’s business.
“… … You’re lying.”
Ray Yuris answered without a moment’s hesitation.
“It certainly isn’t a ‘grimoire that can be shown to everyone.’”
“That doesn’t sound like something someone with the Demon King’s Grimoire would say.”
“──Is it the ‘Book of the Black Goat’?”
For a moment, Dale swallowed his breath.
“You are underestimating the intelligence power of our Red Tower.”
“… … .”
“But I also underestimated the power of the ‘Black Prince’.”
Ray continued speaking to Dale, who was trying hard to keep his composure.
“I understand now.”
“What do you want to know?”
“The saying that he is the greatest genius in the empire is not an empty boast.”
Ray Yuris said.
“There is also a wall that I cannot dare to touch at this moment.”
But Ray Uris’s expression showed no sign of the frustration that had plagued Dale up until now. It was not the despair felt in the face of the incarnation of absurdity, but rather, as if he had found the match he had longed for.
The dragon’s jawbone, grotesquely twisted, held an unknown joy.
Not a wall that can never be overcome, but the expression of a challenger facing a wall that must be overcome.
“This match is my defeat.”
Ray Yuris opened his mouth. No, he tried to open it.
“Shoove.”
Dale interrupted him, calling out to him the Book of the Black Goat, which had its tentacles planted in his heart.
Here, in front of everyone at Fight Club.
─ Wow, there are a lot of people!
Shub laughed like a little child. And in the eyes of Ray Yuris and everyone else in Fight Club──.
The most disgusting and horrible monster in the world was there.
An otherworldly monster with hundreds or thousands of tentacles writhing and crawling together like earthworms.
A dark, black mucus like coal tar dripped down the tentacles.
Choaack!
Those pitch-black tentacles began to stretch out in all directions around the stadium, as if they were showing off the power of the 『Book of the Black Goat』 in front of everyone.
Boom!
The tentacles slammed down and destroyed the entire stadium, and a sense of fear descended, as if an untouchable monster was running wild.
Clang!
The Fight Club’s protective barrier was helplessly broken by the swaying tentacles.
Screams and horrification, and amidst them, maddening shouts, rang out.
In any case, it is not so unexpected that the Red Tower knows about the Book of the Black Goat. At least, it was not difficult for them to find out its truth at the ‘point of suspicion’, and the Sistine Chapel must be in an uproar by now.
In that case, it would be better to show it to everyone. The power of the magic book possessed by the ‘Black Prince’ of Saxony.
After showing off the power of Shuve, Dale took away the Book of the Black Goat.
“I accept your defeat.”
Even if it was a fight club, they couldn’t kill the son of the Bloody Duke and the successor to the Red Tower right here. Just as the Empire and the Red Tower were currently wary of the young Dale, it was not the ‘Black Duke’ but the ‘Black Tower’.
Killing the young successor of the Red Tower would only serve to give them a legitimacy in the long run.
Accepting defeat, Ray Yuris nodded silently.
For the first time, I put my two legs behind me, which were beginning to tremble faintly.
