Good fellow, what a good move to turn the tables.
This guy was clearly the one who came to destroy the world, but now he wanted to put the blame on Ryuga. He was quite experienced in putting the blame on others.
Moreover, he used magic to spread his words so that his words could be heard by at least thousands of Dragonborn soldiers on the battlefield.
The whole battlefield was suddenly in an uproar, and everyone was uneasy.
"Is this true? Is our world going to be destroyed? "
"The Demon King's words may not be trusted!"
"But if it's true, won't our lives be all on the Hero?"
"What about Sir Matthew?"
"What should we do? I don't want to die without knowing why, and I still have family to take care of … "
"Should we agree to the Demon King's conditions?"
Chaotic quarrels filled the battlefield, and most of the Dragonborn had a hesitant look on their faces.
They did not want to gamble, nor did they want to bet their lives on the Hero whom they had never met and whom they had no trust in.
Compared to perishing together, they were certainly more inclined to drive the Demon King out of Gaijabbrand. As long as a magic contract was signed, the Demon King could not break it.
As for which world the Demon King would wreak havoc on after leaving Gaiyabbrand, that was none of their business.
"Sure enough, we should agree to the Demon King's conditions!"
"Is this okay?"
"Hero, for the sake of all the living beings in this world, please agree to the Demon King's conditions!"
Although some people were still hesitating, more people were already shouting pleadingly at Ryuga.
"Damn it, cowards!"
Matthew came to the outside of Helcrown with Aliya's help. Looking at the Dragonborn who had begun to compromise, he could not help but grit his teeth and shouted at Ryuga who was in mid-air.
"Hero! Holy Sword, quickly find the Holy Sword! The Holy Sword can remove all spells, and the Demon King's moves can be nullified with the Holy Sword! "
That's right.
One of the special skills of the Holy Sword, [Spell Removal Domain], specialized in countering all fancy magic spells. That domain could remove all spells and force the opponent to fight in close combat.
As long as he obtained the Sacred Sword, he would be able to nullify the Demon King's ultimate skill, [Dark Return Point], which was capable of destroying the world twice. With the Hero's strength, he would definitely win!
Now, the life and death of the entire world depended on Ryuga alone.
"Hmph, destroy the world?"
Ryuga snorted noncommittally. Her face was calm and unruffled.
"Why don't you try and see if you can destroy this world?"
From his tone, it was as if he did not take the destruction of the world seriously at all. Even if the billions of living beings in the world were to be wiped out because of this, he would not even frown.
"What? Do you want to be a sinner who destroys the world? "
The will-o '-the-wisps in the Demon King's eyes flickered rapidly. In a moment of desperation, he once again let his stern voice spread throughout the entire battlefield.
"What? Damn it! "
"Damn it! Don't you know how to compromise? "
"I'm going to die because of him!"
The thousands of Dragon Human soldiers immediately broke into an uproar. There were those who were in disbelief, those who were cursing, and those who collapsed to the ground in dejection... For a time, all sorts of emotions were present here.
"This is a lie, right? What is that Hero saying? "
Matthew was also dumbfounded as he stared at the sky.
"Ugh... That Hero is really something! At a time like this, is he still going to carry out his own style of doing things his own way? "
Aliya also held her forehead, feeling a headache coming on.
A normal Hero would have already fallen into a fierce internal struggle at this moment, caught between killing the Demon King and saving the world. In the end, he would have no choice but to be persuaded to let the Demon King go.
Unfortunately, this Hero was the kind of monster who would remain indifferent no matter what the situation was, even if he was condemned by thousands of people.
"Calm down, Matthew. That Hero is not someone who would put himself in danger. He probably has some special skill that will kill him..."
Although Aliya comforted Matthew, to be honest, she did not know whether this was the truth or not.
In any case, they could rely on the Gate Between Worlds to escape and unify the God Realm, so they really wouldn't be in danger. That Hero really did have a foolproof escape route, but whether or not he really cared about the survival of the world was something no one could be sure about.
Although there was chaos on the ground, in the sky, Ryuga was still flying upward at a steady pace, gradually approaching the Demon King, bringing great psychological pressure to the Demon King.
"Then let's die together!"
A thick chill appeared in the Demon King's eyes. It made up its mind and gathered all its strength to make the light ball in its mouth shine even brighter.
Ryuga did not say anything. She just silently stretched out her hand.
"Job Rank Fusion. Job Ranks Archer and Assassin selected."
The Sacred Bow and the pitch-black lead ball appeared in front of him at the same time, and turned into two dense and gentle rays of light, gradually merging into one.
The brand new Sacred Bow appeared in the form of the Demonic Dragon Bow, but sharp short swords appeared at both ends of the bow, as if the two weapons had completely merged into one.
"[Double Job Rank] activated, Relic Fusion completed."
Ryuga held the brand new Sacred Bow that had merged the two Relic Relics. She pulled the bowstring to its limit, and a pitch-black flame arrow appeared from the bow.
"Damn it, you'd rather die with me?"
The Demon King faced the arrow with a deadly heat, and despair appeared in its eyes. However, at the same time, its heart was unprecedentedly fierce.
Since you want me to die, I won't let you have it easy. I'll use this attack to turn you and the world you're protecting into dust in the universe!
"Dark Return Point!"
The Demon King roared, and the colorful light ball in its mouth was about to be spat out. It turned into an energy field that was as violent as the ocean, destroying the core of the planet.
It was all the power that it had accumulated in this world for 30 years. It was enough to destroy the core of the planet several times and turn the planet into ashes.
However …
Before that, it was as if the light had been reversed, and time had been reversed. Everything in front of it had fallen into an illogical and unreasonable realm.
"Purgatory Nova Arrow."
The arrow that was burning with pitch-black flames, after leaving the bowstring, somehow arrived first even though it was launched later. The concept of first and second was reversed.
"Boom!"
Before the multicolored ball of light was released, the arrow had already pierced through the air with a sharp whistling sound as it passed through like a ray of light.
The arrow pierced through the body of the Skeletal Dragon in the blink of an eye. The high temperature that was enough to burn everything evaporated his body in an instant.
The colorful light ball wriggled like a balloon, and eventually gradually turned into ownerless energy and dissipated, returning to the world.
"My life is much more precious than yours. A mere Demon King and a world are not enough to make me die with you."
Ryuga retrieved the fused Sacred Bow and let it dissipate into particles, removing the Job Rank Fusion.
At this point, the Demon King was eliminated.
All of Ryuga's Nameless Spiritual Base Missions were completed.
