Magi’s Grandson

Vol 1 Chapter 18

Fighting against a Devil

In the past, there had been no cases of a human changing into a devil.

Demonization had only occurred to animals in the wild. The ones who couldnt control their magic power turned into demons, and everyone had thought that we humans were a special existence.

Thats why when a human turned into a devil several decades ago, people were shocked.

Humans were of no exception.

Everyone received an incredible shock that humans could also become devils. And because of the threat that they themselves could turn into devils, they became tremendously desperate.

That ominous magical power, to say nothing of an excellent Magician who perceived the magical power, planted fear into the ordinary people.

It had overflowing magic power, uses no chants, had no restrictions, and wildly rampaged about.

Although Earls.h.i.+de Kingdoms Army had used all of its military strength to subjugate the devil, the only result was an increased amount of victims.

In the end, the ones that were able to subjugate him were Magi Merlin and his partner, Melinda, who then became known as Heroes.

Because of that event, these two people were respected as Heroes even until now.

In front of my eyes was Cart, who had turned into a devil.

He was clad in an ominous magical power, a peculiar characteristic of demons. What had been the white portion of his eyes had turned deep red, and he stood still in place while gazing at empty s.p.a.ce.

This scene was viewed by everyone who was in close proximity, and those who had never seen a devil before were completely flabbergasted. Well, of course its the first time theyd sighted a devil, since it was an extremely rare case.

Er, this is not the time to leisurely think about such things!

Run away everyone!! That guy turned into a G.o.dd.a.m.n devil! Youll only become collateral damage if you continue to stay here!!

Those words were able to return the students to their senses.

U-uwwwaaaaahhh!! Devil! Did he just say a Devil!?

We have to run away ! We have to run away ! We have to run away ! We have to run away!

He-he, someone please help meeee!!

KYAAAaaaaa!!

While trying to escape, everyone was screaming in confusion.

That will be fine. If everyone who escapes starts to spread the word, the information will be transmitted.

The problem is what to do with that guy

Gus, you should escape as well.

s.h.i.+n, you No way!?

Aah, Ill somehow try to stop him.

Dont be stupid! You should escape too!!

Although Gus yelled at me, I didnt hear it.

That guy will probably not stop here, and as a devil, he might attack the Royal Capital. And thus, I cannot leave him alone.

Then we will stay as well!!

As people who have never hunted a single demon before, what kind of idiotic things are you saying!!

Although I feel regretful towards Gus, I need him to evacuate.

s.h.i.+n are we a hindrance?

Yeah, you guys are a hindrance.

Is that so

Gus bit his tightened lips, and turned around.

Everyone, lets escape from here!

No way! How can we leave s.h.i.+n-kun alone in this place!!

Itll be fine, just focus on escaping! Even if we stay here, well only be a burden!

But!

Mes.h.i.+na! Dont let go of Claude even if you have to drag her along with you!!

Ye-yes!!

Nooo! s.h.i.+n kun! s.h.i.+n kun!!

Gus and the others have finally evacuated. With this, at last

Its about time I take action. Cart.

After turning into devil, Cart, who had been standing still and staring at empty s.p.a.ce, finally looked my way

GOWAAAaaaaah !!!!!

Once he discharged his magic, he headed towards me.

While Cart was on his way to where I was, I bombarded him with Fire Bullets.

When the Fire Bullets. .h.i.t Cart, without confirming the outcome I circled around Carts back, drew the Vibration Sword, and slashed horizontally. I was so glad I was wearing my Jet Boots.

SLAs.h.!.+

There was some resistance! Where was it? Where did I cut him?

When I moved away slightly, I saw that Cart had taken damage from the Fire Bullets all over his body, and his left arm appeared to have been severed from above his elbow.

GYAAAaaaa!! WALFORD! YOU b.a.s.t.a.r.d! YOU Ba.s.sSSTAAARRRDdddddd!!!

At this time, I felt a sense of discomfort.

Walford? He called out my name? Is there a part of his consciousness left in him?

ILL KILL YOU! ILL DEFINITELY KILL YOU ! WALFORDddd!!

At the same time he was yelling, he produced a cl.u.s.ter of Fireb.a.l.l.s.

Tsk!

In order to obstruct the Fireb.a.l.l.s, I created a magic barrier.

UWaaahh, HOT!

Dammit! Even if the barrier can protect against magic, it doesnt prevent the heat. My face is burning!

This!

Because it was excessively hot, I created a blade made out of water.

SLASH, SLASH, SLAs.h.!.+

The water blade started slas.h.i.+ng towards Cart.

Why you How dare You! HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU!

I rushed towards Cart with both the Vibration Sword and the Water Blade at hand. Then, I sliced at Carts remaining right arm.

This is

Is this the end of it?

Thats what I thought after looking at Carts b.l.o.o.d.y appearance.

Certainly, compared to the demonized animals Ive slayed before, rather than a wolf or a bear, he is formidable and can be compared to either a lion or a tiger. However

KABOOOooOOOOOM!!!

Cart used explosion magic on himself. His wounded right arm was suddenly torn off, and exploded into a thousand pieces.

As I thought this guy, he isnt that much of a big deal, is he?

While fighting Cart who had turned into a devil, I felt uneasy.

Hes way too weak.

I had heard that when the human turned into a devil in the past, he had ruined a country. However, this guy, although hes strong, doesnt give the feeling of despair.

In the first place, was it really that easy for a human to turn into a devil?

It gives an uncomfortable feeling.

There are so many things that feel too out of place in this incident. What the h.e.l.l is going on?

AAAAaaaAAAAAAaaahhHHHHHHH!!!

Tsk! This is bad! His magic power increased even further!!

Magic power began to swirl around Cart. This is is he going to self- destruct!?

If he accidentally discharges such great magic power, this whole area will be blown away!!

If I dont stop him now itll be bad!

CAAAaaaRRRRrrrrTTT !!

I rushed towards Cart while brandis.h.i.+ng the Vibration Sword, aiming towards the nape of his neck.

SLAs.h.!.+

After I swung the Vibration Sword, I put some distance between us in preparation for any accidental discharge.

I looked at Cart who appeared to have stopped moving, and

Wobble.

Carts head fell and his body also fell soon after.

Thud.

I confirmed that the swelling magic power had dispersed, and Carts body had stopped moving

Phewwww

I let out a big sigh. Then I examined Cart, who had become a corpse.

Now that I thought about it, this was the first time I had killed a person Even though he was a person that had turned into a devil there was no feeling of guilt

I wonder if it was because of that? Because Ive regularly hunted animals throughout the forest? I wonder if I have become accustomed to taking lives?

Because of that thought, I looked at Carts corpse with complicated feelings

s.h.i.+n-kun!!!

Sicily came jumping towards me.

Hey! Sicily! Did you not evacuate with everyone!?

s.h.i.+n-kun! Are you alright!? Are you injured anymore!?

Sicily came and asked me while touching my body here and there.

Gus and the others also showed up, and so I asked Gus.

You guys did you guys not evacuate?

Ye-yeah But just as we were about to exit the ground, we suddenly heard this amazing sound so we turned around

Then, he cut off his words and looked at Cart.

It was our first time seeing a devil and we watched in astonishment as you overwhelmed him and then he was taken down just like that

When I looked around, I saw that everyone had a complicated expression.

Nevertheless I still find it unbelievable, even until now. Since Cart had turned into a devil, I thought it was already hopeless

Even I, myself, had already prepared for my death.

Walford-kun was really amazing.

Thats right! What was that? Even though your magic talent is tremendous, you were also able to cut the devils arm with a sword!

It was a spectacular display of swordsmans.h.i.+p degozaru. In this case, wouldnt he also qualify in the Knight Military Training Academy as their top student dezogaru?

Thats right! Even I have never seen my Father nor my older brother display such beautiful swordsmans.h.i.+p.

Walford-kun, as expected, is an amazing person?

It looked like the tension had evaporated. Everyone started speaking unanimously. Meanwhile, only Gus remained silent.

Gus, whats wrong?

Hmm? No, nothing. I was just thinking that itll be problematic from now on.

What do you mean?

Youre not self-conscious, are you? A devil has appeared, you know?

Ah Thats right.

This is the second time in history a devil has appeared. This catastrophe alone will shake the entire country. Moreover this easily

While Gus was in the middle of his explanation, Knights, Soldiers, and Magicians all gathered, and summoned the students.

Prince Augusto!! Are you injured in any way!?
