“I was right after all. Your sword is crying.” (Ray)

Sigshesta glitters and Heine’s left arm is cut off sending Zereo flying off and piercing the ground.

“…..Aaah……….. Ouch……. You……… How……!?” (Heine)

Heine jumps back in surprise with his arm regrowing instantly.

“…….. How’d you do that…..!?” (Heine)

Ray takes a step forward with a nonchalant look on his face.

“What’s wrong?” (Ray)

“How are you moving in <Agoras>…..!? You aren’t even wearing anti-magic…..!” (Heine)

“I wondered how you could move freely in <Agoras>. I thought it was probably because of holy power so I decided to use holy power as well.” (Ray)

Heine’s face distorts.

“This demon sword is unique in that is changes in response to its user’s wishes so I tried giving it holy power. I’m glad it went well.” (Ray)

Holy light overflows from the unique sword.

Ray has become one with his sword and is receiving the benefits from it. Due to that even though he’s a mazoku he’s not affected by <Agoras>.

“Ah, I see. Hmph. But that just makes it a fake holy sword. Can you beat me with that?” (Heine)

“Let’s use the real thing then.” (Ray)

Ray picks up the holy earth greatsword Zereo causing Heine to laugh.

“Ahahahahaa! What are you doing onii-san? It’s a big problem if a mazoku uses a holy sword you know? Your body will be eroded. Didn’t you see what happened to that 3rd year with the holy water? Time to finish t—.” (Heine)

Using Zereo Ray cuts off Heines right arm.

“Ugyaaaaaaa……!!” (Heine)

Heine retreats again holding his wounded arm and screaming.

“………Why….? Why. Impossible!” (Heine)

Ray follows after the retreating Heine.

“Return my holy sword. Return to your true owner!!” (Heine)

Holding his hand out Heine called his sword but nothing happened.

His expression is dyed in despair.

“……Why…..!?” (Heine)

“It seems that this holy sword likes me.” (Ray)

“Why don’t you return!? Zereo! Oi, are you listening?” (Heine)

The holy sword doesn’t respond to Heine at all.

Holy swords chose suitable owners and this holy sword has chosen.

“No way…….. its a lie lie lie……. It has to be a lie! It’s….. It’s a holy sword right…..? It’s not any old holy sword either. It’s the holy earth greatsword belonging to Jergakanon. No other heroes apart from me can use it…….!! Mazoku definitely cannot use it!!” (Heine)

Heine swings Zeele down.

Using Zereo Ray blocks Zeele.

“…….Wh……!?” (Heine)

“You seem to be lacking in understanding here. Should I teach you how to use holy swords?” (Ray)

Ray sticks the holy earth greatsword Zereo in the ground.

“……Fuu!” (Ray)

A flash appears from Zereo that’s stuck in the ground and in an instant, a huge area of earth appears as if gouged out and dumped.

Heine’s body is blown away due to the rapidly rising earth.

“……Uwaaaa…..!!” (Heine)

The ground, stones and even trees attacked Heine as if they had a will of their own. All of them were given power by the holy earth greatsword.

Heine was barely able to prevent it with anti-magic and barriers.

“C’mon…… I didn’t know Zereo had this much power—” (Heine)

Heine’s eyes show amazement.

Ray sheathed Shigshesta and picked up Zeele that had fallen to the ground.

“If you get injured by Zereo and then that same wound gets cut by Zeele it forms a stigmata that magic can’t heal. That’s right isn’t it?” (Ray)

“This is impossible……. This is completely impossible. How many years do you think I had to train to use two holy swords at the same time!! Why can this mazoku u—!” (Heine)

Two swords glittered at the same time.

“Ugyaaaaaaaaa!!!” (Heine)

Stigmata’s formed on both of Heines arms that had been cut off.

“……..Fu…. Fuuuuck……… Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck…..!!” (Heine)

Heine forms magic circles over his stigmata’s and attempts to cut them off from the stumps, however, the stigmata don’t remain stationary and rapidly expand.

“………Why!? This is strange. Zereo and Zeele didn’t have such power….!! What did you do to my holy swords!?” (Heine)

“These swords have always had this power you just weren’t able to master them.” (Ray)

“Shut up! Shit…… It shouldn’t be like this…… Why have I lost…..? I can’t lose to a mazokuuuuuuuu!!!” (Heine)

Heine puts all his magic power into <Agoras> judging that since Ray had sheathed Shigsheta he would be affected by it again, however, Ray simply stabs both swords into the ground and <Agoras> immediately stops.

“This is the correct way to use them.” (Ray)

Heine’s body is skewered by 44 blades.

“Uu………..Gyaaaaaaaaaaa…..!!!!” (Heine)

A high pitched scream rings out.

The twin swords of Zeele and Zereo had multiplied underground and sprouted 44 blades from the ground.

Every wound changed into a stigmata rendering the healing from <De Igeria> useless.

“…..Aaaah…….. Help……. It hurts….. Aaaaaah……. Healing……. Why do I look like this……? Aaaaaaah…. It hurts….!!!” (Heine)

Unable to withstand the pain Heine just screams.

“Oi. You! I surrender! Heal me quickly! This is just a school test. Don’t you think this is too much?” (Heine)

Ray gave his refreshing smile to Heines haughty objection.

“Unfortunately I’m not very good at magic but since you’ve surrendered I won’t interfere while you heal yourself.” (Ray)

“…..Idiot……. I can’t……!! Ah……aaaaaah. It hurts…… It hurts……. help…….. Help me…..!!” (Heine)

“Is it really that painful? They’re not very big wounds you know? I think there’s far more hellish suffering to be had in this world.” (Ray)

“……Where………!?”

Ray laughs and then smiles.

“Who knows. It was a thought that just popped into my head.” (Ray)

Turning his back on Heine Ray walks off.

“Oi, wait…….where are you going!? Help me! Help, help meeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!” (Heine)

Heine’s screams echo throughout the city.
