[With an Infinite Blade in His Hand]

“““Exa(-sama)!”””

I silently nodded to the girls’ call, and went to Magmell while carrying Ophir in Vermillion Bird Form.

After which Arca and the others joined up with us, and I casted an area healing magic for everyone.

“Mm, ngh~…”

“Are you okay? Zana.”

“…Yeah, no need to worry. You too Magmell, thanks. You’d been casting healing magic on me, right?”

“Please don’t mind it, your safety is the most important.” Magmell seemed to have a weight lift off her shoulders now that Zana had regained consciousness.

“Now then,” After confirming the safety of all of them, I turned my eyes to the guys who had put them into such a state.

“Kukuku, our real target has finally made his appearance. —Hey, that wasn’t cool, Big Guy.”

“Ahh, I have no excuse. It is a fact that I wasn’t able to even block his blow. He’s strong.”

When the man with sanpaku eyes called him out, the giant man slowly raised his body.

“Be careful, Exa,” in the meantime, Arca gave me a warning, “those guys’ names are Shangarula and Boreios. They’re ‘Fist’ Saint and ‘Axe’ Saint respectively.”

“Yeah, I figured that’s the case. Sorry I’m late. Now you can leave the rest to me.”

I patted Arca’s head as I said so, and Arca looked to be taken aback for a moment, then she nodded shyly, “Y, yeah…”

“No fair. I did my best too…” Tirna pouted behind us, so I patted her head as well while smiling broadly.

Then, I told everyone to move away and confronted the saints again.

“Ha, you plannin’ to fight us by yourself? Wow, that’s the Savior for ya.”

“It just means he is that capable. You will be regretting it if you underestimate him.”

“Ha, then let’s see about that!”

Bam! Kicking off the ground, Shangarula swung out his arm.

But,

――BANG!

“Gugaah!?”

““““““Wha!?””””””

All of a sudden, a greatsword swung down and slammed him into the ground.

◇ ◇

“Gah…!?”

Shangarula struggled to understand what had happened while the sounds of bones cracking came from his whole body.

Shangarula’s blow was clearly about to land on the guy in front of him.

Yet when he noticed it, he was the one who got beaten and made to crawl on the ground.

Furthermore, the guy followed it up by pressing him to the ground with the greatsword that he had taken out from who knew where.

“Y-you…”

Shangarula turned his indignant gaze toward the man—the Savior.

He didn’t see the guy pulling out his weapon.

No, the guy didn’t bring any weapon to begin with.

According to the reports he had heard before, the guy was said to have a dagger that could transform into various kinds of weapons.

But where was it?

He didn’t seem to have such a dagger on his person.

Then what was the deal with the weapon he was holding now?

Shangarula had no information on something like it.

It was like…

Just then.

“—Hmm!”

BANG! Boreios swung out his Sacred Treasure.

He was perhaps trying to help out Shangarula.

I don’t need you to help me… Shangarula clenched his teeth but,

““Wha!?””

Then, he and Boreios went wide-eyed in shock.

It was natural.

After all—the guy was using two greatswords to block Boreios’s strong blow.

As before, he took out another weapon in an instant.

And the fact that ‘it could be taken out in an instant’ meant that ‘it could be put out in an instant’.

“—Grand Earth Bullet!”

――BAM!

“Guboah!?”

The Savior, who had made his greatswords disappear and covered his right arm with a crimson gauntlet instead, threw a strong punch into the defenseless abdomen of Boreios.

“…so that’s it!” As Boreios’s giant body was sent flying into the air again, Shangarula, who no longer had a greatsword pressing him down, also launched an attack on the guy.

“—!”

“Gh!?”

But the Saviour didn’t seem to be surprised by it; he already had a staff pointed at Shangarula rushing at him.

“—Grand Gigaflare!”

――BLAZE!

“Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!?”

◇ ◇

“W-wow…”

“Ahh, Exa-sama… What a wonderful display…”

“U-umu, he sure is terribly strong, but what on earth is that…”

As the girls were letting out exclamations of surprise, I instantly dematerialized the weapons in my both hands.

After which, Shangarula, who was on the verge of becoming charcoal, was desperately struggling to get up while saying, “…You fucker, you hid your weapon inside your body, didn’t you…”

“““““!”””””

At his words, the girls’ eyes became wide open in surprise.

Since it had been exposed, there was no need to hide it, then.

“Yeah,” nodding, I said while showing Shangarula the magatamas that were glowing on the backs of my both hands, “Infinite Blade—‘Amaterasu Orb’. That’s the name of my weapon.”
