Volume 3, Chapter 36: Gentleman of Death, Tony Lair?

「A-A-ALL OF YOU, JUMP AT HIM AT ONCEEEEEEE! EXPLODE… YEAH! KILL HIM WITH EXPLOSION!!」

Tony Lair ordered the five remaining children with swords in their hands to charge at him.

「WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! ARE YOU DEAF?! THEN, I’LL TURN THE SLOWEST ONE AMONGST YOU INTO MINCEMEAT SOUP AND FEED YOU TO THE PIGS!」

Tony Lair’s cold, cruel eyes were glaring at them.

The children who looked at those eyes were trembling in fear, readying their swords with bewildered looks on their faces.

The reason for this was that Tony Lair always followed through with what he threatened.

His orders were the absolute rule amongst the children who went into brainwashing training in Tetomburgh.

「Y-yeah, then…」

「Rest assured, I’m gonna kill that man and put an end to his evil deeds today.」

Lambert pointed his greatsword at Tony Lair.

Robic, who was disarmed, could only look up to Lambert’s back as he sat on the ground.

Amongst Tony Lair’s slave, Robic was got defeated and was now being protected by Lambert. He was the only one who wore the expression of a child befitting his age.

The first sword dropped to the floor.

「I see, so you chose to become mincemeat, huh…」

Then, the second one, third one, and so on until none of the children had swords in their hands anymore

By protecting Robic from the explosion, Lambert had provided reason for the children to overcome their fear of Tony Lair.

From the very beginning, the difference between Lambert and Tony Lair in terms of personality and persuasive power was like heaven and earth—the former was a veteran of the most tragic warring era.

No matter how much Tony Lair threatened the children with violence, it was a far cry from a veteran of war like Lambert.

「You sh*tty brats… HOW DARE YOU UNDERESTIMATE ME!! Fine then, I’ll make you regret your decision until you die. I’ll let you taste the compilation of 『Angel of Death』’s sorcery with your body! Our sorcery has long since surpassed the kingdom’s sorcery! I can keep you alive with just your brain and internal organs!」

「Quite a big mouth you got there for someone who can do nothing but blasphemous acts on humans.」

「Stupid swordsmen like you who can do nothing but swing their sword will never understand. The research conducted in this place will be accepted by royal alchemists in no time if I bring it to the palace.」

「That is just an incomplete reproduction of the sorcery from the Eight Countries Unification War Era. Almost all of that is a poor reproduction from that era.」

「W-what the…?」

Tony Lair’s head flushed red in rage.

「You and your organization are nothing more than mere parasites who fed on what was lost to history FOR A GOOD REASON. You, stray people hoping to get valuation from the kingdom, have no right to laugh. All of your achievements are built upon a mountain of corpses.」

「…I’M SUCH A FOOL FOR TRYING TO EXPLAIN OUR VALUES TO A STUPID SWORDSMAN LIKE YOU! IGNORANT FOOLS WHO CAN’T UNDERSTAND THE VALUE OF OUR RESEARCH! IDIOTS LIKE YOU AND THE KINGDOM ARE THE REASON WHY I JOINED 『DEVIL’S PIPER』!」

Tony Lair focusing his power into his left hand.

As a result, the length of crystalized mana that made up his claws became longer.

Tony Lair lowered his stance, kicking the ground as he sprinted forward and circling around Lambert.

‘Thick armor that can even block the counterbalance sword’s explosion, and speed that surpasses Robic… He’s truly a troublesome enemy. But too naive. That naivety of yours will be your doom! My devil claws should be able to pierce the gap between his armor! And then, all I’ve to do is use the opening…! My claws that can disturb the flow of mana inside its victim’s body is the best poison… Even a monster-like swordsman like him won’t be safe from such poison!’

Tony Lair acted as if he was aiming for Robic who sat behind Lambert. Lambert, who was distracted by that, would be filled with an opening for Tony Lair to deliver his strike.

But this was where Tony Lair made a miscalculation.

Lambert, who had lost his flesh, was no longer human. Tony Lair’s mana poison was meaningless against him.

And even if Lambert was still alive, for Lambert—a swordsman who strengthened his body by perfectly controlling the flow of mana in his body—Tony Lair’s mana poison was nothing more than a breeze facing a giant storm.

「LET’S START WITH THE MOST USELESS ONE!!」

Tony Lair threw a feint, which made it look like he was aiming for Robic, but he changed his direction immediately.

At that moment, blood showered down from Tony Lair’s left shoulder.

「GAH! F-FROM SUCH A POSITION…!」

There was no need to say that another one of Tony Lair’s miscalculations was the fact that he miscalculated the difference in abilities between Lambert and him.

It was precisely because Lambert had nobly carried out his justice that he was praised as the strongest swordsman of the Four Demon Generals of Regios Kingdom.

「S-STOP! I’M THE MOST PROMISING SORCERER! KILLING ME IS AN ACT OF DETERRING THE DEVELOPMENT OF SORCERY STUDY IN THIS WORLD!」

Lambert’s sword decapitated Tony Lair’s right foot and pried into his left foot.

Tony Lair raised an anguished scream.

「A-am I… going to die? This me…」

The blade of Lambert’s greatsword then touched Tony Lair’s neck.

「You say that you’re the vice-leader of 『Angel of Death』, right? Where’s the boss?」

「Fufufu… Hahahahahaha, 『Spinner of the Truth』-sama won’t be defeated by the likes of you… That person, not even I dare to speak their true name. Because… they’re extremely famous to the point that no one has ever heard their name. Or rather, it might be more appropriate to call them a monster, but… It’s exactly due to that person that I can hold this fort with ease…」

「Not interested—not that I’ve ever heard about them either. Now, spit out their whereabouts.」

「That mighty person is unfathomable, even to me… They just told me to guard this place. Meaning that their focus isn’t in this place. But rest assured. I’m sure that 『Spinner of the Truth』-sama will choose you as their playmate.」

Tony Lair revealed an ominous smile as he spoke.

The same mana crystal as the one that formed his devil claws sprang from within his body.

His body shook as blood spilled from his mouth. And yet, Tony Lair was still smiling even in death.

「…Death, huh. I guess I’ve no choice but to go looking for another passage to reunite with Kreuz and Co.」

Lambert stood up and then turned around to looking at the six young slaves of Tony Lair.

「Follow. We must get out of here immediately. Most of the sorcerers in this place should’ve already been taken care of.」
