93 - 68 The Price of Playing with Fire

"d*mn it, you're an incubus, you can't fight me with your 'lewd crests' ......!"

Hesperios bit his lip in frustration.

I'm not sure what you mean by "lewd crest ......?　I tilted my head, and Xana snickered.

I'm sorry, but this is not a lewd crest. The crests you incubus use are a sign of servitude, of a woman's submission to the pleasures of body and soul, but ours is a sign of our love and bond with him. But ours is a sign of our love and bond with him, not a mere imitation of pleasure.

I see, it seems that a "whore's crest" is a mark that is attached to a s*xual slave.

It is certainly completely different from my Phoenix Seal, which is my Phoenix Seal.

After all, it's a phoenix seal.

I agree with the princess. Your phoenix seal doesn't give me this kind of power, does it?

Ophir's body was shimmering with an aura like a flame.

No, it was not only Ophir.

No, it is not only Ophir. "Hmmm, so our power has been completely strengthened through the Phoenix Seal. Surely, it is the work of love.

I don't know what it is, but it's a sacred artifact. I don't know if it's a sacred artifact or what, but I'll say it once again. --You will never be able to surpass me.

"Yes. Because we are Iguza's wives. With Iguza, we will never be defeated.

That's what I mean. I am sorry. We have him whom we love. How can he be a captive of you?

Everyone is at .......

Alka, Magmael, Tiruna, and Xana were all enveloped in the same aura, albeit of different colors.

Gosh, you cheeky little buggers. ......

Hesperios, his beautiful face contorted with anger, transforms into his Suzaku form and says to me.

You lost to them, and now you're going to lose to me. And now you're going to lose to me.

Hesperios gave a chuckle as he thrust the Hinokaguzuchi, which he had turned into a single-edged sword.

I'm not getting too carried away, ......?　I'm in a very bad mood right now. ......

I've been hitting on you for a while now, too," he said. I'm sorry, but I'm not going to take it easy on you. I'm sorry, but I'm not going to go easy on you.

I'm not going to go easy on you," he said.

I told you not to get carried away!

"Agh!　Hesperius shoots a huge blue flame from his staff.

As one would expect from the saint of the staff, this is an art form that can be performed without chanting.

However, the saint of the staff, Hesperios, is a saint of the staff.

That's--that's my line!

--Doban!

At the same time, I leapt and caught it with my Hinokaguzuchi while shouting to the girls.

I'll take care of this one!　I'll take care of this one, and you guys rescue the wounded and subdue the captivated dwarves!　And of course, try not to kill them!"

「「「「「 Roger! 」」」」」

After confirming that everyone nodded in agreement, I unleashed my power to settle the score with Hesperius.

◇ ◇

--That's ridiculous!

--Stupid!

--Ridiculous!

--Ridiculous!

In the midst of the blazing fire, Hesperius was both frustrated and bewildered.

He was an incubus of the highest rank, a saint of the "scepter" equipped with a divine weapon specialized in magic, and his charm had been broken by the love and bond of a mere mortal.

Such a thing had never happened before.

Humans, subhumans, and even demons have always fallen before Hesperios if they are "female.

So why doesn't fascination work on them?

Why can't I own them?

--Why?

--Why?

--Why?

--Why?

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

--Aaagh!

"Gooooooooo!　Don't lick me!

Doooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!　And Hesperios unleashes a myriad of wind slashes.

Like the aoe, this is a high-level wind technique.

Normally, this technique should slash everything just by touching it.

Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah!

--ohohohohohoh...!

What?

So why isn't this thing turning into a piece of meat?

Don't tell me that he's playing everything with that weapon!

No, that's impossible!

Even if he had borrowed the power of the goddesses, he could not have used Hesperios' technique, which is a sacred weapon given to him by the same god, and the rare skill of the "Wandless Wand".

Even if he had borrowed the power of the goddesses, how could he possibly have been able to use the high art of Hesperios, the saint of wands, who has the rare skill of "no wand", and who is also the saint of wands?

There is absolutely no way that a sword that we don't even know which blacksmith made it would be able to prevent that!

--BAKKIN!

Bakun!

Look, it shattered.

No wonder.

Because Hesperios is the saint of the "staff" chosen by the goddess of the end.

--Oh, my God!

It was a completely appalling situation.

He had lost his weapon of choice, and was now taking Hesperius' windblade squarely in the face.

However, the man is immortal.

If that's the case, then I should just cut him up into small pieces and bottle up each part...

And...

--And then...

What?

A hand suddenly reaches out and grabs Hesperios' face.

If you look, you will see that all the parts that should have been cut open are engulfed in flames.

I see...he's already ......?

"Hey, Incubus. Do you know that it's called "playing with fire" when you touch another man's woman?

What are you ......?

You seem to like playing with fire a lot, don't you? Then I'll let you play with fire as you like.

--Oh, my God!

What?

At that moment, Hesperios' vision is filled with bright red flames.

"Gaaaahhhhhhhh!

--It's hot!

--Hot!

--Hot!

--Hot ......!

In the burning storm that struck in this way, Hesperios' consciousness disappeared as if melting away.
