◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

Blood Demon loved conversation.

Through dialogue, he could learn about his opponent in detail.

Filling his mind with many stories and savoring them slowly was his hobby.

In that sense, he really wanted to have a proper conversation with the new commander of the Royal Knights.

He was one of the top three strongest among the true demons.

The fact that he was known as the king of all blood demons spoke to his strength.

But even he couldn’t fully read the new commander’s movements.

No, forget about reading his movements.

That attack at the beginning, what on earth was that?

‘The moment it touched me, I couldn’t even move my body. As if time itself was pressing down on me…’

Even to himself it seemed like it was an absurd comparison, but he couldn’t help but think that way.

In his mind, the most absolute and irresistible force was time itself.

And that sense of discomfort grew stronger as he watched the commander dodge his attacks.

There was no sign of him evading, it meant that even he had missed the enemy’s movements.

But in normal times, he didn’t show such quick movements.

Was there a penalty for using this power?

No, he used it too frequently for that to be the case.

‘There’s no point in overthinking it.’

First, he needed to find out the enemy’s limits.

Blood Demon merely twitched a finger.

With just that, the blood spears that had devoured dozens or hundreds of knights rose towards him.

It was a perfect blind spot.

An attack that no human, or even a demon without hundreds of eyes, could see.

Yet this human dodged it far too easily.

But Blood Demon didn’t get angry.

Rather, he felt his mouth water.

For a mere human to be this strong?

Then he must have an incredible story.

“My, I’m getting too hasty without realizing it.”

He wanted to end the fight quickly and hear this human’s story.

From a human perspective, it was similar to wanting to read a novel.

Blood Demon moved more intensely.

At first, he had intended to capture him alive if possible but now his mind had changed.

He would blow off his arms and legs and now that his attacks had a clear purpose, they yielded results.

“Guh?!”

Spears that rose from the ground and air cleanly severed Hans’s right arm.

Ironically, because it didn’t affect his life, time stop didn’t activate.

That was why he lost an arm in an instant.

It was fortunate that he was in the process of changing his stance, so he wasn’t holding the sword in his right hand, but the momentum inevitably shifted.

This could be called a weakness of humans.

While demons could regenerate severed wounds given enough time, humans and other continental races couldn’t.

He smiled.

“The tide has turned. How about surrendering now?”

“…Then will you spare my life?”

“Of course. I’ll guarantee it.”

Usually in these cases, people didn’t beg for their lives.

Rather, many would tell you to kill them.

Blood Demon couldn’t understand this.

Of course, he understood the concepts of pride and honor, but…

Isn’t everything meaningless once you’re dead?

And the opponent’s death wasn’t particularly good for Blood Demon either.

He wouldn’t be able to hear any more of their unique stories.

So, up until now, Blood Demon had rarely killed opponents with his own hands and even then, most of them had died because they were weaker than expected.

Therefore, begging for one’s life wasn’t a bad thing to Blood Demon.

Rather, he would welcome it with open arms.

It meant he could hear more stories.

“In exchange, tell me more stories. Oh, if you want, I can even reattach your arm…”

Blood Demon, who had been rambling excitedly, suddenly stopped speaking.

He felt a sensation as if his spine was being pierced.

Blood Demon unconsciously stepped back.

What was that just now?

At that moment, Blood Demon could see it.

The sight of his severed right arm slowly disappearing.

His arm turned to dust in an instant, bones and muscles vanishing.

There were cases where severed body parts disappeared like that, but those were special cases.

It was the first time he had seen something disappear in less than a few seconds like this.

“What on earth…?”

“Shut up and die.”

“?!”

The man who had been kneeling suddenly stood up and charged.

Had he not given up?

Even if it was troublesome, he’d have to blow off one of his legs.

Blood Demon made his judgment and was about to move, but his body wouldn’t move properly.

More precisely, his body wouldn’t respond as he thought.

To use an analogy, it felt like he was floundering, buried in sand.

It was a terrible feeling.

In contrast, the man’s sword was incredibly fast.

It felt like that sensation from the beginning, as if he couldn’t possibly resist.

Eventually, Blood Demon’s neck was cleanly severed by the sword he swung.

◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

My arm… was cut off…?

I stared at it blankly.

The thing flying through the air, spraying blood, was unmistakably my right arm.

Perhaps because I realized this fact, a searing pain accompanied it.

It felt as if someone was branding the area below my right shoulder with fire.

I felt nauseous.

I felt like I was about to vomit at any moment.

Because of this, I couldn’t endure and collapsed to the ground.

Until now, time stop had activated automatically because my life was in danger.

But this time, it didn’t activate.

What was the difference?

However, I soon realized the difference.

It was the difference in aim.

Until now, Blood Demon had attacked carelessly.

As if it didn’t matter where he hit.

But that would have been fatal for me.

After all, I would die if I took even one of those attacks.

However, this time he had aimed for my arm to capture me alive.

Thanks to that, my life wasn’t in danger.

So time stop didn’t activate.

I gritted my teeth.

Was this the price for relying too much on time stop?

Now all that was left was acceleration…!!!

[If you use it like that, you’ll die too.]

“…Ha.”

She appeared.

A girl with white hair and heterochromatic red and black eyes.

The one who called herself Time, like some chuunibyou character.

She was smiling in front of me.

“I have no choice but to use this now.”

[No, you have other options, don’t you?]

“What are they?”

[Making a deal with me.]

“A deal? With you?”

No matter how I thought about it, the only deal I could think of with this one was that time acceleration from before.

Even that time acceleration had such a severe penalty that I had to use it risking my life.

[I want you to live for a long time.]

“…”

[But this time your opponent is really difficult, isn’t he?]

“Just get to the point.”

[Give me your right arm. How about it? It’s a simple trade, right?]

I glanced at my arm.

For a very brief moment, because my mind had been distracted, I hadn’t felt the pain, but with those words, the pain started to return.

I frowned.

“…Then will you spare my life?”

[Of course!]

I nodded.

Her mouth split as if torn, the corners of her lips reaching her ears.

At the same time, my severed right arm turned to dust and moved towards her, or more precisely, towards her right arm.

Her arm was still that of a delicate girl, but I instinctively knew.

That her right arm had been replaced with mine.

As expected, a deal with this one was…

No, now wasn’t the time to worry about such things.

I had to somehow defeat that true demon in front of me.

Fortunately, the power gained through the deal was an incredibly helpful ability.

I gripped my sword with my left hand, the only one remaining.

I only had one eye and one arm left, but the power I received from that girl was strong enough to offset the penalties and then some.

Was that why?

I ran forward confidently.

I didn’t use time stop.

This was insurance I was keeping in reserve.

As I moved, Blood Demon immediately reacted.

As expected of a true demon.

I wouldn’t be able to touch him with just tricks.

When I faced Comprachico or the doppelganger before, I could somehow exchange blows even without using time stop, but the Blood Demon in front of me was on a completely different level from those scraps.

Well, he said he created all blood demons, so I suppose it’s natural.

That was why the power I just received from that girl had to come into play.

Time acceleration was a spear that pierced through everything.

The slash of accelerated time allowed even me, with my insufficient skill, to cut down the opponent decisively.

Of course, the price for this overpowered attack was the pain of my internal organs being eroded.

Compared to that, the power I gained now was the ultimate shield.

A power that thoroughly slowed down the opponent’s time, making it so even a newborn baby could dodge while yawning.

The name of what I gained by sacrificing my right arm was…

Time Deceleration.
