Harusa felt like he was dying.

To be precise, he felt that anyone could easily kill himself now, because he was so uncomfortable that he knelt on the ground and kept coughing, coughing all over his body.

Fortunately, the opponent did not come.

That knife seemed to have killed the other party, or at least it was very badly injured...... What luck.

If it weren't for Jun Go's assault in mid-air, approaching the distance where Hariji would have erupted into a wave of counterattacks, this battle would have been really difficult to fight, either he would have to read the file, or consume props......

After a while, after finally calming down, Hariji slowly stood up, and found that the fog around him had become very thick, and there were bursts of chill.

Keeping his guard, he walked towards the worship hall and opened the door.

I saw the handsome samurai kneeling in it, his head bowed, blood stained all over the ground, silently.

Seeing this scene, Harusa had no joy of victory, only silence.

He stepped forward and slowly pulled out his knife from the other party's chest, staring at the "blood" stained on it, feeling very dazzling.

It's not real blood, and the other side isn't human, but that doesn't make it a reason for relief.

He felt like he had done nothing wrong.

The other party is not wrong.

It's just that...... That's all there is to it.

Suddenly I felt murderous!

Even if you don't see it, you can feel that a terrifying being that exudes an extremely murderous aura is approaching.

It's a warning from Harusa's survival instinct.

It was a split-second judgment that he had to run away, or read the file.

Stay and fight only to die.

Is it "she"?

I guess so.

Harusa took a deep breath and turned to walk out of the hall.

Even if you leave, take a look at "her" first, and if you can, try to talk and get information.

The imaginary image of "her" naturally flooded in his mind, perhaps a majestic female warrior, or perhaps a beautiful woman wearing a priest's costume or a shrine maiden costume......

However, what he actually saw was completely unexpected.

"Kotaro...... Sir?"

Harusa looked at the first "person" he saw after coming here, and was surprised.

The charcoal seller's upper body clothes were stained with blood, his eye circles turned black, his eyes were faintly bloody, and strange black lines appeared vaguely on his face, exuding a sharp and murderous aura!

"Why are you here?" asked Harusa, wondering how the other party had become like this.

Kotaro did not answer.

He raised his hand suddenly, and suddenly a thick black and red mist emerged, condensing into a giant claw and shooting it in the air!!

There was a bang, the ground shook, and the snow and ice flew.

Harusa dodged the blow with "bullet time" in time.

If he gets hit, he'll be a meatloaf all at once!

What a strong force.

"Kotaro ......" Although he subconsciously raised his sword, Haru really didn't want to fight.

He didn't hesitate to fight the samurai and the king.

However, this one in front of me is different.

Kotaro is just a charcoal seller! He is an ordinary "person" who should have no combat effectiveness, and what kind of person or thing has made him like this!

Harusa wanted to know why, and didn't want to make a move on Kotaro, who was originally an ordinary "person".

However, the giant claws attacked again, this time with two!

Boom! Boom!!

"Stop!Kotaro!!" Haruji shouted as he dodged the second wave of attacks, "ahem...... I don't want to...... Cough...... I don't want to fight you!"

"...... of the wilderness" Kotaro's face was distorted, as if he was enduring great pain, "Why ......"

"What?"

"Why did you kill my mother and brother!?

Boom, boom, boom, boom......

The giant claws smashed down continuously, and Harusa dodged to the limit, embarrassed.

"I ...... Kill your mom and brother?"

"It's you!It's you!!, you evil ghost pretending to be a human," the charcoal seller roared and unleashed his power!

This power was earned by him with his life.

"I didn't!!" Harusa shouted in response, "I'm not a ghost, I'm just ......"

It's just to save people!

A real human being, a flesh-and-blood human being unlike you necromancy!!

I'm not a ghost!

I want to shout it out.

But no.

Whatever the reason, whatever the reason.

After all, he was the one who brought destruction here.

So he is a demon and nothing else.

………………………… Damn it.

Abominable, abominable, abominable, abominable, abominable, abominable

The heart is screaming wildly.

However, there was only gritted teeth and silence.

I don't want to.

I really don't want to do that.

If I can keep this place and not hurt anyone, I will definitely do it.

But...... There's no way!!

The field of vision becomes blurred.

Because there were tears in their eyes.

In the next second, three or four giant claws attacked together.

Harusa dodged with all his might, but the blurred vision led to a blind spot.

Touch!!!

He was knocked out by the fifth giant claw!

The whole person broke into the worship hall and came out from the other side!

"Ahem...... Ahem...... cough cough cough wow......"

The knife was out of his hand, the helmet was off, he was lying on the ground coughing violently, spitting up a large pool of blood, and his body was shaking.

"Wilderness...... Demons ......" Kotaro walked over, covered in black mist, and some kind of shadow appeared faintly behind him, like a ghost and a human figure.

"Ahem...... Are you ...... now? It looks like a ghost...... Hehe......" Harusa looked at the other party with tears in his eyes, but smiled inexplicably and weakly.

I didn't expect to defeat a strong samurai enemy, but I lost at the hands of an ordinary "person".

Although he has become unusual.

But...... It's always like that.

The heroes who end up killing the worst villains are often from the most ordinary people.

That's the story.

A cliché tale of a hero triumphing over a demon...... That's all.

"Come on...... Kotaro ...... "Harusa tried to get up, but he couldn't, so he sat on the ground, "Kill me." ”

Take your victory.

You are a hero, there is no doubt about it.

However, only this time.

Next time, I'll ......

"Woo woo woo ah

Kotaro roared wildly, as if he was crying in extreme pain, and unleashed a dense mass of giant claws that almost covered the sky!!

Harusa looked up at the scene with calm eyes.

I don't know what kind of mood I feel now, and I don't want to know.

I just want to know, is the charcoal seller satisfied?

If the answer is yes, then at least one person was redeemed before destruction.

He looked at the other person's face again, met the other's gaze, and smiled.

"...... of the wilderness" Kotaro looked at him with disgust, but there was still a strange glint in his eyes.

All the giant claws smashed down in unison!!

Harusa prepares to fire "bullet time" one last time, and then reads the file.

However, "bullet time" failed to trigger?!

Boom, boom, boom

The black and red color covered almost the entire ground, as if the whole world was dyed with incomparably rich blood.

"Kill...... Dead ......," muttered a low voice from the charcoal seller's mouth.
