We were confronted by an endless swarm of demons sprouting from the entrance of the labyrinth within the stone walls, almost crushed by the force of the expanding numbers, but somehow surviving.
In the sky above, there was a tremendous clash of power and strength.
Over there, Noor, Lara, and Inez are fighting.
Overhead, there is a constant roar that shakes the earth, and every time there is a thunderous roar, there is a huge crack in the ground.
As their footing became unstable, everyone struggled desperately to fight.
[Hellflare]".
It's a great way to make sure you're getting the most out of your time with your family and friends.
I'm not sure what to make of this. ────
You'll be able to find a lot more than that.
The invasion of the demons from the Labyrinth of Sorrows seemed to have no end.
Even though everyone was fighting desperately, the number of monsters was not decreasing, but it was increasing as if they were responding to the emotions of the monsters in the sky.
The monsters in the labyrinth seemed to be completely different creatures from the ones on the ground, even though they looked similar.
I tried several times to talk to them to stop them from moving, but they don't have a heart that I can communicate with.
So, while everyone else was fighting desperately, I could do nothing but run away.
At least, I dove deep into the crowd of demons to make it easier for the people around me to fight, and I kept repeating my evil plan of attracting their attention and running away again.
"──── Hey, kid.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind him.
"......You've been wandering around ...... for a while now, what do you think you're doing?
The voice belonged to Sigil of the Twelve Apostles.
I'm not sure if you've ever heard of it, but it's a great idea.
What ...... are you doing running around? It's all I can do.
Still, I guess it's better than doing nothing.
I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what's going on. ...... Don't be silly. If you're going to run, stay in the back.
"...... I'm not kidding, okay? And I don't think it will make much difference if you stay in the back.

I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but it's a good idea.
While the demons were distracted by me, Sigil chopped off their heads with the twin swords in her hands, wiping out all the enemies in the area.
I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what's going on. What happened to your ...... weapons? Did you lose it?
I don't have a weapon. I don't have a weapon. I mean, I can't carry one.
...... What do you mean?
I rolled up the sleeves of my clothes a little and showed him the bandage wrapped around my arm.
The bandage reveals numerous scars that look like patterns underneath the bandage.
Is that a ...... scar?
Yes.
That was all Sigil needed to know.
My hands have the strength of a young child's grip due to the damage I've suffered since I was a child.
It doesn't interfere much with my daily life, but the muscles necessary for exerting great strength are deeply injured, and I can't hold anything as heavy as other people.
The injury cannot be healed anymore.
In the process of growing up, my body has accepted this as its "natural state," and if I try to heal it, it will get worse.
That's what Mr. Sein, the so-called "Healing Saint," told me.
So, in the end, the only thing I can hold with my strength is a small, light wooden sword.
But it's not something I can use in a real battle, and even if I did, I would easily drop it.
My grip is so weak that I cannot even handle a small bow properly.
──── I can't hold a weapon.
Use ────.
Suddenly, Mr. Sigil threw something at me.
"......What?
It was the basket that Sigil had been wearing.
"This is ......?
It's a magic tool. It has an 'enchantment' that strengthens your grip. I don't think it's the right size, but it can hold a dagger.
I was puzzled by his actions.
...... Why?
I was about to say, "Why?" when Sigil interrupted me: "Because I am a demon, a race that the people of Mithra abhor and seek to exterminate.
I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a good idea. ──── You demons are 'evil' as a race ...... and history has proven it.
In front of me, even more confused, Sigil continued.
You've caused a lot of trouble. The city I was born and raised in was burned to nothing by you, its inhabitants killed, its fields ruined beyond repair. Because of this, my hometown has become a barren land where it is not uncommon for people to starve to death. ...... Therefore, you demon tribe are 'evil' from birth.
He stopped and turned to me.
"But, ──── boy. What the hell are you, ......? Why are you here?
"Why are you here, ......, ......?
I don't understand the question, so I ask back.
"Don't play dumb with ────.
You summoned the Demon Dragon of Misfortune, didn't you? If you have that much power, why don't you use it for yourself? You could have ridden it away at any time. Now you can. So why aren't you running away ......?
...... And why are you trying to help us? I'm not sure what to make of that. The current situation should be a unique opportunity for you demons to retaliate against us.
And yet . On the contrary, you put yourself in danger to stay here and fight with us. ...... Why?
I've been asked repeatedly why, and I can't help but be confused.
You're a ──── demon. I'm not sure what to make of this. ...... I'm not sure about that now. At the very least, ...... someone who likes to stay in a place like this shouldn't die so easily.
I faced him for a moment, unsure of what to make of his words.
I faced him for a moment, unsure of what to make of his words, and then I heard a scream from behind me.
"...... Hey, Sigil! What are you just standing there for? We're fighting to the death, and you're the only ones taking a break!
The voice came from a masked woman named Miranda.
They were on the verge of coming into contact with a pack of demons.
Sigil took one look at them, held out one of her twin swords to me, and said.
"Take the swords, boy. You're evil or you're not. Prove to yourself whether you're evil or not. ...... At least in the meantime, I won't be your enemy.
I was confused again and looked at Sigil's face, which was expressionless under the mask.
It's time to go. I'm not going to have time to talk about it.
"...... Yes.
I took the dagger from him and put on the baskets he gave me.
I took the dagger from him and put on the kagote he gave me. The difference in size didn't matter, it felt surprisingly comfortable in my hand and I could feel the strength in my hand.
It was a very strange feeling.
I could feel the strength in my palm that I hadn't felt for a long time.
And when I grasped the dagger he handed me, I could feel the power being transmitted even more firmly.
...... is amazing.
For the first time in my life, I felt a strong grip on something.
──── I think I might be able to swing a sword with this.
It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.
"Here we go. You'll have to use it to find out.
"...... Yes.
Then Sigil and I ran out almost simultaneously.
As I ran to catch up with Sigil, who was accelerating at a blinding speed, I grabbed my dagger and held it as low as I could as I crawled along the ground.
As Ms. Sigil crashed into a group of demons, I ducked under their feet and pushed forward.
I aimed at the legs of the demons.
I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea.
I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure I can do it.
It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for and what you can do to help.
On the contrary, it cut off several legs around me at the same time.
And yet, I felt no recoil at all in my hands.
It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for and what you can do to help.
It's a great way to get the most out of your time and money.
"──── boy. It's the first time you've wielded a sword properly.
I noticed that Sigil was standing next to me.
"Yes.
"Yeah. ...... Pretty good for your first time. But now that you have a weapon, don't rush in too carelessly. ...... In a group fight, always be aware of your allies' positions. Don't think that you're fighting alone. ──── Or you'll be dead in no time.
"......Yeah.
"──── Hey, hey. Sigil ......? I'm sure you're not the only one.
...... Miranda, you're talking too much. If you want to be able to get the most out of your life, you need to be able to do it. ......
I'm sure you're not the only one who'd like to hear that. And why did you give your weapon to that girl? ......! That sword is a treasured sword that was given to you by your eminence! You didn't even let me touch it once. ......!
I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a good idea.
And ────
"Hellflare.
In a single breath, Lean's scorching sun-like fireball crushes and wipes out all of the demons in its line of fire.
I'm sure you'll be able to understand why I've been so impressed with your work.
...... There's something wrong with that girl. I'm sure you've heard of it. You've already fired more than fifty shots at her. ...... How can she still be standing after that?
Lean had been firing a fireball that could knock down a thousand demons without a break.
It's not like we're able to take a moment to breathe after her fireballs have passed through, but she keeps firing them without taking a break.
The firepower of her fireballs never waned and continued to annihilate the crowd of demons.
Even so, I could see that her face was gradually showing signs of deep fatigue.
I can also see that she is being pushed to the point where she can't afford to say even a single word.
I felt that she must have reached her limit by now.
If she collapses here, of course, we'll be annihilated.
I took a deep breath as much as I could in the brief silence, knowing that the time was getting closer and closer. And then.
"Thank you for ......, Mr. Sigil.
As I caught my breath, I said a few words of thanks to Sigil.
You'll have to wait until you've survived to say that. ...... And I don't deserve to be thanked one way or the other. The reason I gave it to you was because I calculated your overall strength. ──── Also, that dagger was given to me by your eminence. Make sure you return it.
Yeah, I got it.
The next wave is coming. ──── Be ready.
Sigil and I ran into the crowd of demons at the same time, and I followed his lead with my dagger.
As we repeated the process, I became more and more accustomed to swinging my sword, and the number of demons I could kill at once increased.
This can be a great way to make sure that you are getting the most out of your time with your family and friends.
I'm not sure what to say.
