Black Iron Magician

Chapter 329: Demonstration Experiment

Chapter 329 Demonstration Experiment

Haru successfully slipped through Zex Body’s counterattack and leaped in front of it. However, she let go of her Doggan Staff in the previous exchange. She’s now barehanded, and she has to break through the armor to defeat Zex Body.

?Gwon!?

The mono-eye on the head glared at Haru, and the red light flashed violently. It’s obvious that it’s going to do something, and Haru is unarmed.

?Death Scythe!?

Correction, she wasn’t unarmed. Haru took out a black magic stone cannonball from her waist pouch and immediately applied Death Scythe to it. Then, Haru threw it at the same time the beam was shot from the mono-eye. The black ball was thrown with a snap as if it was a shuriken, and the beam, which is thinner than the one from the tail and seems to have less power, collided with it.

The power of the two is almost equal. Eventually, the black bulled was repelled, but the mono-eye beam has run out of energy by the time Haru reach the head. Then, Haru’s crisp eyes met with the inorganic eye. If it’s the usual Haru, she would have smiled at it, but she’s now in hunting mode. In fact, I feel like I can’t see any emotions in Haru’s eyes.

?Death Scythe!?

I wonder how many times she has used Death Scythe today? Haru applied the magic on her own arm. Now that her arm is wrapped in a disturbing aura, she has only one thing to do. That’s to use her fist to attack her enemy with her all.

?Take this!?

As expected, Haru created a scaffolding in the air with Air Kick and slammed her fist on the head of Zex Body on the spot. However, I didn’t hear the dull sound. If I had to say, it was more like the sound of something being pierced.

?…… It wasn’t a fist??

Damn, I have to correct it again. I’ll say this beforehand, it’s far from here and it’s hard to see the scene, so it’s not that my reaction is slow or anything. Now that my dignity is maintained, let’s resume the commentary. Haru didn’t make a clenched fist, but she straightened her fingers. It was the so-called spear hand.

I don’t know much about martial arts, but I imagine that the penetrating power of the spear hand is higher than a normal blow. I mean, the name is like that. If I’m not wrong, it seems that it was a technique used to aim at the enemy’s vital point in karate…. It was aimed at the mono-eye of Zex Body, so it’s counted as a vital point, I guess?

????Crack.

In fact, Haru’s extended fingertips clearly pierced the head. The Death Scythe applied also matched the shape of Haru’s spear hand that the black blade changed into something like a spear. It penetrated the mono-eye and the head, and the tip could be seen through the back of the head.

?G-Gwooon!?

But even so, Zex Body doesn’t stop. It keeps moving irregularly, like a broken machine. The AI that controls the body is probably dead, and it’s about to enter the real rampaging state. The head is completely destroyed. Then, what remains is the body that’s wrapped in armor that’s tougher than the head??

???Tiny Hole.?

With her hand still inside the head, Haru created a small black hole at her fingertip without hesitation. Then it mercilessly devoured the machine parts around it. Once it has roughly finished devouring the inside of the head, it gradually began to move downward. The part under the head is, of course, the core of Zex Body.

?It’s over, huh….?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

??………??

Alezel and Zex, who were watching the course of events in Al Nova’s monitor room, were just silent while watching the screen that’s showing the scrap yard. On the screen, Zex Body was being finished off by Haruna’s magic.

?My~, to think that she really wins~. Her big talk ain’t just empty words~?

The one who broke the silence was Alezel. She’s sitting while rotating the swivel chair she’s on, probably out of respect for Haruna’s fight. Alezel, who’s acting in such a childish manner, has a triumphant look on her face and she gives Zex an enthusiastic look. ‘You remember your promise, right?’ It’s as if she wants to say so.

?I see, I see…! This result exceeded my expectations. Even though that body had bad compatibility, I never thought she would dismantle it to that extent.?

?Zex-han, making excuses is a no, kay??

?Ah, no. That’s not my intention. I’m just impressed. There were at least three times in that battle where Haruna-dono could have died. For people, the fear of death is like a curse that becomes shackles in a battle. Being able to overcome it easily and keep moving forward like that is a wonderful thing.?

?Oh~, what a high praise~?

?Fuhaha! I think I somewhat understand why Alezel-dono is charmed by her!?

Just like Alezel, Zex begins to rotate his chair, and it’s somewhat faster than the rotation of Alezel’s chair. It’s unthinkable for the Great Eight Demons who stand at the top of the world, but the way they are doing it is as if they are competing with each other. If the first and third ranks were here, the situation would have been more chaotic.

?They sure have extraordinary talent. Not only Haruna-dono, but Chinatsu-dono and Touko-dono also have the same potential. Even though I’m a machine, the emotion that’s similar to excitement is likely to sprout.?

?Well, I’m sure that Nell and Lily-han will come later to complain about the intrusion. Still, are you okay with using that much to check their potential??

?I received the data in exchange for them, so there’s no problem. They have proved it by defeating my half body. Good grief, it seems that the day of the generation change of the Great Eight Demons is near.?

Zex said so as he looked at the monitors that showed different locations. There are figures of Chinatsu and Touko, both with an inorganic object blowing smoke beside them. It’s not clear what that is, but it seems to have been a factor enough to convince Zex.

?If that’s the case, I feel sorry for Hund-han who just joined recently~. Well, that ain’t their goal, so there’s no need to worry.?

?The goal is to return to another world, right? Well, it’s really regrettable.?

?That’s if they can win against the upper ranks, though. …… So, Zex-han. As promised, you have to cooperate properly, kay??

Alezel stopped rotating her chair and reminded Zex. Only at this time, Alezel has a serious look on her face, showing that she’s not joking around. In response, Zex also stopped his chair and faced Alezel.

?Of course. Besides, the girls are so interesting that the others will be interested in them even without my recommendation. Peace is the best, but they still want a moderate stimulation after all!?

?On the scale of the Great Eight Demons, that moderate is a disaster for ordinary people, though! Kuhaha!?

The seriousness is only a moment. Perhaps it is the style of these two to start rotating the chairs again when the arrangement is over, and they rotate so much that the chairs are screaming. Meanwhile, on the screen of the monitor, the figure of Haruna who has run out of magic power and collapsed was projected.
