“Luke Surberry, I’m listening to your story. You say you defeated the Behemoth.”
ㅤ
Barbassa suddenly started.
ㅤ
“It wasn’t just my power. I couldn’t defeat it alone.”
ㅤ
While surprised that the rumors had spread to the demon realm, Luke shrugged modestly.
ㅤ
“The Behemoth is not a sweet existence that can be defeated by cooperating with the human race. Unless you have a person with great power, you can’t even scratch it even if you lead an army.”
ㅤ
Barbassa glared at Luke.
ㅤ
“Excessive modesty is no different from disrespect. No, it’s more ugly. You are just plotting under the name of modesty. It’s the same as mocking the other party.”
ㅤ
“Don’t say such a thing. . .”
ㅤ
“Then show it in your attitude. Follow me.”
ㅤ
As soon as he said that, Barbassa stood up and walked towards the exit.
ㅤ
“?”
ㅤ
“I don’t know, but it seems like he’s telling us to follow him.”
ㅤ
Luke and the others, who looked at each other’s faces, hurriedly followed Barbassa.
ㅤ
Barbassa was heading for the courtyard of the castle.
ㅤ
The fountain raises a cool splash, and low garden trees bloom vivid flowers around it.
ㅤ
But Luke didn’t have the luxury to admire the beautiful scenery now.
ㅤ
Because Barbassa, who had a sword in both hands, was waiting.
ㅤ
Barbassa threw one of his swords to Luke.
ㅤ
“Take it, prove your strength to me.”
ㅤ
“Please don’t say unreasonable things! Why do I have to cross swords with you!”
ㅤ
Even Luke had no choice but to panic at this.
ㅤ
It’s not a joke to cross swords, let alone territorial invasion.
ㅤ
If it becomes a bloodshed, it could really become an international problem.
ㅤ
“Your Excellency, you are overestimating me! I am not the one to cross swords with you. Please reconsider.”
ㅤ
Barbassa quietly opened his mouth to Luke, who stubbornly refused.
ㅤ
“Then you are saying that your lord’s words are lies.”
ㅤ
“What are you talking about. . .?”
ㅤ
“Exactly as I said. You are trying to deny the words of your own lord who swore loyalty.”
ㅤ
“That’s ridiculous. . .”
ㅤ
Luke somehow swallowed the words that Flora-sama would never say such a thing.
ㅤ
It doesn’t matter whether Flora actually talked to Barbassa or not.
ㅤ
Luke realized that the option to refuse had disappeared when those words were brought up.
ㅤ
“. . .I understand.”
ㅤ
Luke picked up the sword with a sigh.
ㅤ
“That’s good.”
ㅤ
Barbassa held his sword.
ㅤ
“Let me tell you, don’t think about going easy on me. If I judge that you have added a hand to me, neither you nor the two daughters there will be able to leave my territory.”
ㅤ
“I understand.”
ㅤ
Luke held his sword while answering sullenly.
ㅤ
He was going to do it seriously from the beginning.
ㅤ
Rather, Luke was unusually angry.
ㅤ
He was fed up with the arbitrary behavior of Barbassa, a lord of the demon realm, no matter what.
ㅤ
ㅤ
“Let’s go!”
ㅤ
Barbassa lunged at him.
ㅤ
Generally, demons are superior to humans in both magical power and physical abilities.
ㅤ
Among them, pure demons like Barbassa were not opponents that ordinary humans could handle, even if there were 100 of them.
ㅤ
However, Luke was completely blocking Barbassa’s storm-like attacks.
ㅤ
“You’re pretty good! How about this!”
ㅤ
A magical power bullet was fired from Barbassa’s hand.
ㅤ
It’s an ability that only pure demons can use, which allows them to use magical power for attacks without using inefficient methods like chanting.
ㅤ
But even that was dodged by Luke at the last moment.
ㅤ
The magical power bullet that missed and went behind destroyed the fountain.
ㅤ
Water from the fountain sprayed towards Barbassa.
ㅤ
Taking this opportunity, Luke switched to offense.
ㅤ
“Guh. . . You. . . To this extent.”
ㅤ
Suddenly, Barbassa had no choice but to go on the defensive.
ㅤ
“Amazing. . . Sir Berlanji is on the defensive. . .”
ㅤ
Kiel was watching the battle between the two with wide eyes.
ㅤ
“It’s said that even an army can’t stand against Sir Berlanji.”
ㅤ
“Because it’s Luke, he’s been through battles like that many times.”
ㅤ
Alma puffed out her chest proudly.
ㅤ
“What on earth is Luke. . .”
ㅤ
ㅤ
“Annoying!”
ㅤ
Barbassa thrust out his left hand.
ㅤ
The glow of a magical power bullet lit up at the tip of each finger.
ㅤ
“It’s useless!”
ㅤ
At the same time as Luke thrust out his left hand, Barbassa’s magical power bullet disappeared.
ㅤ
“What!”
ㅤ
Luke’s nullification magic had erased Barbassa’s magical power bullet.
ㅤ
“Haah!”
ㅤ
With a shout, Barbassa’s sword was knocked away.
ㅤ
“Not yet!”
ㅤ
Barbassa grabbed the blade of Luke’s sword.
ㅤ
The steel blade was crushed into pieces.
ㅤ
“How about this!”
ㅤ
A right hand filled with magical power attacked Luke.
ㅤ
The moment the fist reached him, Luke’s left fist punched through Barbassa’s temple.
ㅤ
“Guh. . .”
ㅤ
Barbassa’s body swayed.
ㅤ
A follow-up right fist attacked Barbassa’s jaw.
ㅤ
The fist stopped just before it shattered the jaw.
ㅤ
“Are you satisfied with this?”
ㅤ
Luke’s quiet voice echoed in the courtyard.
