Chapter 25:
Exorcism is not my Job
"Now listen carefully, Takashi and Nobuyuki will go from the other side of the glade, while me and Ryota will stay on this side. When you arrive to the other side you will signal to me and then i will cast a spell attack to the whole circle to cause them confusion. Then we will charged by both sides to cause them panic without giving any chance to regroup"
"Understood my lady"
"Got it Miss Fukunaga"
"The whole point of this plan is to keep them disorganised and scared, they are more powerful and more in numbers, so the whole point is to keep them in doubt of how many we truly are"
Everyone nodded positively.
"Okay then, you two go"
Takashi and Nobuyuki nodded and left in silent, as they walked around the glade to reach the other side.
Masami summoned her sword in her right hand, Ryota mimic her action and summon his katana too.
"Ryota a word please" Ryota look at her surprise and approach her
"Listen, during the whole fight I don't want to leave my side not even for a moment. There are also High demons among this bunch, which means with your experience against them you will be dead in seconds"
Ryota recalled the battle back to the café, and how big the gap was between the strength of Ryosuke and Sayaka against that Archdemon.
"So please, don't do anything reckless like charging alone or fight an opponent by yourself, okay?" Masami asked him in a soft tone with care but also strictly
Ryota look at her eyes for a moment and then she nodded
"Okay, Miss Fukunaga"
Masami smiled gently to him .
"Perfect, and I already told you, you call me Masami" told to him in a playful tone
As both of them turned their attention back to the glade, they saw Takashi and Nobuyuki from the other side signalling them. Masami breathed deeply raising her sword.
"Ready dearie?" she asked Ryota while kept focus on the demon circle
"I'm ready to follow your lead Masami"
Masami heart skipped a beat. Then raising her sword higher she yelled with her crystal voice which cover any other sound:
"My blade, purge all evil!" with a perfectly vertical of swing of her sword into the thin air the power of her swing sliced the demons which the edge of her sword pointed and caused the blue fire in the middle of the demon circle separate in two, and causing the flame and ashes burn any demon which was close.
All lowly demons started screaming from fear and pain, while the High demons dumbfounded turned to look from where the attack came.
"A HUMAN SORCERER KILLED HER"
"KILL THE WITCH NOW"
All demons were ready to charge on us, but then two daggers flied from the other side of the glade and stab two demons on their necks. The demons confused turned to look on the other side, only to be faced by Nobuyuki which was charging with a giant double axe on his hand. He charged on them leaving a war cry and cut off the head of the first High demon in front of him.
Takashi followed he's lead running to incredible speed between the demons in confuse, and leaving them choking on their own blood by slicing their necks.
"Let's move Ryota, we won't let them have all the fun" Masami also charged into the glade, with Ryota following her from behind.
She run towards to two High demons in front of her as they raised their swords to strike her. She dodge them easily and slice their hands off. Then she raised her left hand towards to them.
"Begone, wicked souls!" in a split of seconds a blue beam thrown through her hand and turned both of the two wounded demons in dust as they screamed in pain. Ryota attack to the lowly demons who were screaming and grinding their teeth in rage against them by stabing them with his katana.
Then a 7 feet tall High demon raised his hand towards to him.
"DIE HUMAN, EARTH STABBING" spikes came from the ground towards to Ryota to stab him, but Masami got in front of him raising her hand
"DIVINE SHIELD" both of them covered in light and the spikes broke in hundreds of pieces
"TSK YOU ANNOYING HUMAN FEMALE, FIRE FROM THE DEMON WORLD" then a fire pit which came from the blue fire in the middle strike the shield.
Masami hold the shield with great strength. After the fire subsided, Ryota run towards to the demon and cut off his left leg. The demon fell down screaming in pain and rage.
"Face your destruction!" Masami cast a spell which a large amount of physical mana flatten to the ground until he died in agony.
Meanwhile Takashi were still slaughtering any demon on their sights.
"DIE YOU FITLTHY CREATURES" Nobuyuki and sliced a trunk of a big tree causing to fall in the middle of the glade and squash dozens of demons.
"Ahhh such a brute" Takashi comment as he threw three daggers towards the heads of three lowly demons stabbing right between their eyes
After that he run towards to an eight foot tall demon as he trying to strike him down with its heavy mace. Takashi dodged the strike easily and jumped up of it and by raising his leg up over his head he strike him down with the ankle of his leg and crush him on the ground with his face.
"For me battle must be elegant and flawless" he said to himself as he fixed his gloves on his hands.
Ryota charged to a High demon which was holding a black trident ready to stab his stomach. He evade the strike with success and strike him with his katana through its chest.
The High demon cuffed blood coming from its pierced lungs and fell heavily on the ground dead.
Ryota stand up beside Masami as he scooped some sweat from his forehead. Masami look at him tenderly.
"Try to not die from tiredness Ryota dearie"
