Punching the naked demon in the face, I said with haste:

"Check status."

This maniac sacrificed his skills and mana stat to regrow his body back.

"I may not be the original but my blood pumps and my flesh is real!" The false demon king slashed forward.

Deflecting the attack, the force armor didn’t dent.

"Huh–?" the false king’s face was full of confusion.

Sheathing the fire hero’s sword, I clenched my fist and started throwing punches at the demon.

Without his body reinforcement skill, he couldn’t do that trick where he stopped an attack with his bare hands.

His stats are about three levels higher than mine, but this force armor will be enough to suffice.

Because the demon king was a mage and didn’t have any sort of weaponry fighting.

Kicking his shin, he collapsed but I grabbed him by the hair before he fell down.

Growling, I slammed his head straight to the ground.

Grabbing me by the forearm, the false king gritted his teeth and started thrusting the dagger wildly.

"Not yet... I will not die here–!"

Grabbing his upper arm, I forced his shoulder to dislocate.

The sheer force had caused it to crack from the pressure.

"Aargh!" He wriggled in pain.

A sense of joy dripped down my soul.

"You will not die a quick death." I mumbled, my voice cold.

One by one, I slowly shattered his bones.

Starting from his toes to his legs, I slowly made my way up to his ribs.

Despite being a demon, his anatomy was the exact same as a demon.

"W-Wait, please stop–!" The false demon’s face was filled with fear.

Forcing my fingers through his skin, I sank my grasp onto one of his ribs.

Feeling his bone get caressed, multiple tears fell down his eyes.

With a wide grin painted across my face, I slowly snapped his rib.

"AAAAAH–!"

Muffling his screams, I stuck my finger inside his mouth.

Clamping his teeth down, he tried doing everything within his ability to injure me.

But instead his teeth had been shattered and broken.

Laughing, I leaned in closer to his ear.

"How disgusting, I wonder what kind of joyous expression you’ll have on your face when I do this..!" I whispered loudly, ignoring his pleas.

Impact line.

I focused on the technique of ’impact line’ to work with my finger, it looks like it succeeded.

Afterall, there wasn’t a rule stating that a technique was limited to a weapon.

An explosion of splattering blood painted my armor the color of black soot.

So that’s the color that a demon like this bleeds.

Suddenly, something felt different about the false demon king.

Grinning with a bloody mouth, he had broken from my grasp and grabbed another copy of the demon.

"What are you doing–?" A demon with weaker stats than him was questioned.

Taking big bites, the false king who had sacrificed his spells started consuming the other.

After finishing his humanoid meal, he clenched his fist.

"So much power... truly the strength of the true demon king reigns supreme." He tilted his head, giving me a cold glare, "Let’s see how much you’ll fair against it."

Launching himself at full speed, I was sent skidding back.

With a stomp, I planted my foot into the ground, slowing down the acceleration.

Checking his status, it had only gotten stronger by two levels and he didn’t inherit any skills.

But that boost of strength had given him an even wider gap of strength between us.

Looming over me, my knee bent outwards as I was getting pushed into the ground.

"Urghhh..." I pushed every fiber of my body to push him off of me.

Landing a solid headbutt into his face, I expected a reaction but he didn’t react at all.

Focusing my mana to expand on my hand, I quickly compressed it.

Wind blade.

A burst of gale exploded from my palms, making the false king loose his grip.

Unsheathing the fire hero sword, I shifted my stance, pointing the tip of the blade at the opponent in front of me.

Covering my blade in a veil of mana, I activated blade aura.

"Excaliburn." On top of a fierce flame on top of it, but I wasn’t done yet.

Closing my eyes, I focused on my mana before muttering:

"Wind blade."

Focusing both of my eyes, I placed my perception skill and the true eye of the truth seeker into overdrive.

Cautiously stepping around him, I gauged his ability.

Refusing to blink my eyes, I foresaw his actions.

When he leapt towards me, low to the ground, he was preparing to claw me.

Throwing a front kick, I interrupted his flow of attack.

Slashing towards, I narrowly landed an attack.

However he had dodged my attack by punching his face, launching himself out of the way.

Tch.

"Hah!" The false king scoffed.

Glancing over at the demons that Incus was battling, the false demon kings that she was battling were attacking like autonomous robots with the order to simply attack and nothing else.

The battleground around her was broken and multiple pillars of earth were rising as darkness and fire was shooting out.

Shifting my attention back, the false demon in front of me had prepared to throw a punch.

Dodging the attack by slightly leaning my body to the side and stepping in an angle, I slashed horizontally.

Because I intentionally slashed at his neck when both of his hands were extended, he couldn’t do the same strategy from earlier.

Jumping by flicking his ankle, because my blade was already an inch away, changing the trajectory of the blade this close would be impossible.

My blade had instead slashed at his chest, his muscles and skin had become denser.
