Ever since I unexpectedly found myself fighting alongside the Dullahan, I had been curious. Excluding Elissier when she goes all out, how strong would the Dullahan, when consumed by the demon sword, be?

I had assumed that I would never witness it, considering there was no way he would wield the demon sword in his right mind.@@novelbin@@

—Zzzzzzak!

I blocked the demon sword with my radiant spear, even though the sword moved so fast it was nearly invisible. When the two weapons collided, a massive shockwave exploded, obliterating the ground beneath us as if the area had been the size of a noble’s mansion.

But that wasn’t the end of it. The space where the demon sword cut through turned black, and the surrounding dimension began to be sucked into the void.

It wasn’t just that the space was shattered; something that shouldn’t exist was manifesting within it, disintegrating everything it touched.

—Saaaaa...

Golden light burst forth from the radiant spear. The light clung to the blackened space like a spider web, slowly closing the rift to the otherworldly void that should never have existed.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye. We both regained our footing in midair and immediately launched our next attacks.

"......!!!"

A battle cry erupted from within the Dullahan’s helmet. He swung not the demon sword, but his usual weapon, charging at me. The precise and calculated path of his blade, refined by his swordsmanship, was both disciplined and cold.

Though his attacks were much weaker than those made with the demon sword, they were infused with honor and sincerity.

The perfectly timed strike gleamed as it approached, but my radiant spear blocked its path just a fraction of a second before impact. At the exact moment the Dullahan’s blade met the radiant light, it was deflected to the opposite side.
