I confronted Yuuki, and we began to size each other up

And in the …… How did you find this place?」

Yuuki asked

He seemed to be either bold or stupid

Who even asks this kind of question to the eneuess that’s right?

I didn’t really expect an answer, and I guess Ried as if disappointed

Well, he probably isn’t

He probably kept talking, to try and find out my weaknesses

Actually, just like Diablo said, Moss’ recon was perfect

He had sent out both an appropriately sized duot found

Rather, the plan was to let the eneuard dohile the s a thing

As one of theot found out and destroyed, the other would use that chance to get into cae

Really, his abilities was excellent for this kind of work

Now then, let’s recap

First, the strategic victory conditions fro Veldora

1 Recover Veldora

2 Eliminate the threat

3 Annihilate the Imperials

Of those, most of the as done

One could say operation co off) the Emperor

In that case, the new victory conditions,

1 Recover Chloe

2 Finish off the Emperor

3 Finish off Yuuki

Would becoivenas there were the three Wishes (Orders), I couldn’t just take her back

Worst case, there was the option to eat Chloe and use Soul Analysis to try and find a way to break the curse……

Even with Wisdo risk of failure

If possible, only after eli on the curse

In any case, I wanted to finish things before Yuukihis bout with Yuuki, the latter also, looking at the unexpected situation, let out a sigh

When he noticed the spy, he did anticipate sos he anticipated, this was the worst of the worst, and he couldn’t help but sigh

(Geez, can’t you just leaveabout this

In this situation, Yuuki’s options were lia was elia didn’t reallyChloe noould be a bad er than Yuuki would be : Guy ・ Crimson, Milim ・ Nava, and the one in front of him, Rimuru

There was also Demon Lord Leon ・ Cromwell to whom he had suffered defeat once, and to whom his poere known But he was now soainst the next tirowth speed, he honestly couldn’t predict anything

If he made Chloe deal with Rimuru, in that instant she would be released

Therefore, they would need to finish each other off And in an ideal scenario, just before that happened, Yuuki hiet the powers, he would then have to face an angered Miliood that Chloe wasn’t hostile towards hi out of options

If he atleast had 2 wishes (orders) re, he could order the eli grace was the fact that Ri

Yuuki considered putting Chloe in hiding a good decision

Rimuru would therefore take into account the possibility of hi an order to Chloe, and wouldn’t be able to act carelessly

Using that opportunity, he would somehow survive this event

And in the worst case scenario, he would be forced to play his trump card, he expected

(Yeah, I don’t really wanna have to do that though)

But as he thought so, there didn’t see his current trial

The De under Rimuru

Yuuki truly understood the breadth of power of those elite De even Deer

(The hell They’re too OP)

That was his honest feeling

He could likely have faced one of them and won, but all three at once would spell certain defeat

Demons never obeyed those weaker than the would be shorter, the higher their Nobility

It was unlikely that Rimuru had summoned all three and put them under leash That left the possibility that Riher class than the his truht noithout hesitation

(Man, I could’ve atleast el Ar changed

And it changed for the better, for Yuuki of course

Testarossa surveilled the surroundings,about

There were none, she determined

Around thens of human presence

Other than a line of corpses, 100,000 soldiers who seemed to be in pain but not actually alive, there were no others

Being wary of theence, Testarossa assured Rimuru

That they could pro done with eli the Emperor was the wish entrusted to them; their contract They had to accomplish this without fail

Ultima would be the one to do it

Since Ri the case, she was given the duty of elia who had soiled her battle with Kondo

That being done, it was only acare of the Elance, Yuuki, the er” However, he exuded a presence that er” but yet “uneasiness”

Carrera therefore judged Yuuki to be a genuine threat

He could perhaps even have the ht to oust her and her fellow De toous think like we’re thinking like that)

It was her first encounter with the boy na presence that didn’t match his face had put Carrera’s instincts on top alert

Perhaps that vigilance and observant eye was soent First Lieutenant Kondo

At present, the one as on highest alert towards Yuuki was, unmistakably, Carrera

As for Ultima,

She faced Emperor Rudra

Hair turned pure white Pallid skin He had a sickly frail presence, but the strength of his will still shined brightly in those eyes

She faced the young Emperor who could still be called a boy

For a while now,

「What? just what nonsense do you speak?

Kondo Tatsuya and Da……

Damrada? And even Kondo Tatsuya?

……No…… Impossible If they’re dead, as I even……」(TN: fuck I’ deliriously

The strength in his eyes began to flicker and fade, as if his heart was being reflected in the as he had caluy asked me to kill you

When I accepted, he’d seeht my fellow demon, Carrera, over there and fell valiantly

The both of the theht way of being considerate

But those words had tremendous effects

「I see So they both fell with pride

Therefore, I too shan’t allow race

As a Ruler of this world, I shall persevere till the very end

I shallMichael bend to my will!」

Clad in the Aura of his former days, the Emperor declared with his will of Nobility

As a ruler, who lived long, and wagered the fate of the world in his Game

Unlike before, he released the chains on his powers, and wielded the Justice King with all his o berserk, and cause the erasure of civilization; to meet the expectations of his subordinates who had sacrificed themselves

To meet the conditions of his final decree

His loyal subordinates had kept their word

So in the end, he would meet his demise as the Emperor

…… The Ehts were had been planted into hiht Manipulation

His heart weakened, his ed, he never realized that he had become vulnerable to Ultimate Skills

In addition, there was fault in his reliance on the Absolute Defense of “Castle Guard”

Being protected fro his mind

The Absolute Barrier would project fro fealty were nearby

But without those loyal subjects, it had no effect at all

He had only hoped to slightly influence hi no resistance, encroached the Emperor’s mind, and eddon was unleashed

Fuck!

Sensing danger, Ultiear

「Oh no you don’t! “Bloody Bite” !!」(TN: Dahtest bit too late

「Yield tothe last of his spirit, Rudra suel Army

Her claeakened by the sheer Holiness of that Skill, yet “Bloody Bite” still forced its way towards E Rudra as the key, the Gates of Heaven spread open

Ultilehim

The skies of the Imperial Capital becaainst Deun to manifest

The circumstances flipped

Yuuki had made the firstaccording to his plans

The “Worreat results; it was a happy mishap

Rather than the “Worm”, it was most likely because the broken E Michael’s temptation

The current situation could be said to be born only because the goals of Yuuki and the Justice King were one in the saoal

Was that of stealing the Ulti Michael』 from Emperor Rudra

Nor will However, in Rudra’s case it was being borrowed

Knowing this, Yuuki was determined to steal it

Obviously, there were certain conditions The soul needed to be expressly weakened or else it would be ieddon which put him in his weakest state, it was the perfect time to plunder the Skill

「Ahaha! Sorry Ri now!」

Yuuki activated his Ulti the E his Skill and putting the Angel Army under his command

It was the only plan that he could use to overcome the current circumstances, but then……

「Naive」

He heard Ri, his cheek received a dizzying shock

「Kufufufufu Those actions are ithin calculations」

Yuuki was bloay by Diablo who had, co his presence, perfectly hidden hih hishis soul away

Even then, the attack seemed to not be at full power

After all, it was only a bare-handed strike using no weapon

「 ―― Kpff!! The hell, there was another one……!」

At this point, his coed his expression, and laughed

「Ku, kukuku, ahahaha ha haha ha! Gimme a break!

Really, I need one…… So you really werebravo Rimuru-san

I really did want to end the world with ine ainst you Not to mention, even that Demon over there――

―― You’re power is just too insane That chill I got e first ht on the money

I should have ended you then

Did I lose my marbles somewhere? Well, doesn’t matter at all now

No no, in fact, if you can stop uess ⬛⬛ will decide the rest
