More Trump Card

Good day, this is Jilbagias who got beaten to a pulp by Platy who went all out.

Well, calling it beaten to a pulp was the wrong choice of expression.

I was totaled.

You're also a huge sore loser

Shut up.

But, those arms were cheating!

According to Platy, her main pact was with the devil of sadism, Katachrysis. They seem to be the devil of combat with many arms, some devils called them the Asura tribe. Since they had a lot of arms, they split those arms every time they made a pact.

Asura tribe grow more arms as they became stronger. Since it becomes too troublesome when they grow too much, having a chance to reduce the number of their arms are considered as lucky.

No wonder. Turns out there was such a hidden fact

Anyhow, it wasn't the first time I met the Asura tribe either. They were troublesome opponents that spun their weapon with six or eight arms.

But, even those guys were taken down by me During my hero era!

Like hell I'm going to lose when the number of the arms was just raised by two!

I dared to challenge her with such optimism and yet

Oh my, aren't you quite lively!?

Platy revealed a bright smile as she spun the spear in her arms, filled to the brim with magical power. I, who had already had my hands full facing Platy, soon got overwhelmed again when she lifted the ban on all out combat.

It was blinding.

Almost as if I fought against a storm of spears.

The arm on her back wasw aiming for me with a disgusting level of accuracy while her other arm restricted my movement to the point that I didn't even have the chance to take a breath.

SHIELD! GIMME A SHIELD!

When I took down an Asura tribe as a hero back then, I had a shield on my left hand!

Though I had a defensive ward in place of a shield now, it was easily shredded to pieces by the barrage of spears filled to the brim with magical power! Gimme shield please!

C'mon, what happened to your liveliness from before!? You can't win if you don't keep your spirit up you know!!

Right hand, left hand, hand on the back. Platy kept trying to rile me up as she unleashed one attack after another. Though I was the one who rushed at her, I ended up forced into a defensive position as if my life was on the line.

Forbid Multiple Spear Strike!

I tried to restrict her with constraint magic after she lifted up the ban on using magic, alas it failed along with a sound similar to a whipped leather whip, nor did I manage to stop her attack either.

And this was the limit of Jilbagias' Constraint!

Rather, hasn't Platy become a bit too strong once she unleashed the arm on her back!?

Still, since I was sure that her movement was disturbed for a split second the moment I unleashed my hex I had to aim at that exact moment to score a point on her.

The spear thrust from her back arm grazed my cheek.

Platy's eyes shone the moment that happened.

Sadizmoz(Pain, Perish)!

The wound on my cheek flared. As if it got stabbed with countless scorching needles and twisted, then rubbed with salt.

GUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!?

NGYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!?

It was just a scratch and yet, I ended up wailing since the pain simply surpassed the limit of my tolerance. Even Ante who resided in my body ended up screaming in pain as the pain seems to be shared with her too.

Platy's spear lodged into my body the moment I stopped moving due to pain. Though she aimed for a non-vital spot such as a shoulder or knees, the pain I felt was completely beyond the limit I could endure.

Aa~ang!

Platy nodded in satisfaction as she twirled her spears before me who collapsed, twitching in pain Along with Ante who couldn't stop making strange panting noises since a while ago.

This is the power of the devil of sadism. Amplification of pain, and curse of pain that will burn the soul

So it was a magic that inflicted pain to my soul from my wound! No wonder Ante who stayed within my body suffered from the pain too!

For the time being, the wound healed when I had Liliana lick the wound for me. She healed both the wound and curse that had been haunting my(and Ante) soul.

How, dare, that, bastard! It's like a brute throwing sewage water into my room of respite!!

The heck, what are you calling a room of respite!? That's my soul dammit! Stop treating someone else's soul like your own damn living room!!

It's does not hurt anymore, but

I panted heavily as I spoke.

Indeed. I raised your sense of pain by 100 times. The lower limit is 2 times so How far can you endure the pain? Maybe you have to at least endure 3000 times the sense of pain.

3000 times Sense of pain!?

Well, you either die or went mad if you suffered from that degree of pain.

Y-Yeah, that's serious. 3000 times the sense of pain isn't something that a normal person could endure.

Moreover, since it's a devil of sadism, she will gain more power the longer her opponent is suffering from pain. Since she has to torment her opponent much longer in accordance with her agreement with her devil, the upper limit of pain she can inflict to her opponent is actually much lower than that.

"Yeah, there's that too!" Muttered Ante.

But, doesnt that mean she could pretty much make us suffer from the pain of a fatal wound From a mere graze?

That, power, is foul play.

It's not foul play. It's devil's magic. And the same goes for your magic, the only reason it doesn't work is because I'm strong enough shake off that magic.

Dammit Her archduchess title wasn't just for show!

Not to mention that Platy was the doctor in the demon kingdom. She could gain more and more power with her devil's authority since she always had the opportunity to inflict pain during healing se!

No, wait a freaking minute, healing?

Mother, could it be that your magic is actually paired with transpo

I did of course.

Dammit, that's cheating!!

This is your first lesson. Despite my declaration on lifting the ban on magic, you're way too defenseless against hexing. This is the reason why my hexing showed its maximum effect this time You have no idea what your opponent is going to do, you let your guard down, that's why you have to always maintain the highest level of vigilance and preparing for all kinds of hexing. 𝒻𝓻𝘦𝑒𝓌𝑒𝓫𝓷𝑜𝓋𝘦𝓵.𝓬𝘰𝓂

Understood, mother!

Dammit This is why I hate the demon race!!!

Well then, now that you have recovered, shall we have another round? Since I can shake off your magic, you should be able to do the same.

Dammit Bring it on!

The pain wasn't a big deal as long as I could endure it right!?

Ante, let's show our guts!!

Ante came out from my body when I gave such an enthusiastic speech.

I'll see your gallant figure, from this place!!!

And sprawled on the ground as she declared so.

YOU TRAITOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR!!!

Platy laughed upon seeing my twitching smile.

Aah. It's good to get along with each other And building a good relationship.

Said Platy, grinning ear to ear as she wiped the tears from her eyes after seeing our antic.

Nevertheless, it's been a really long time since I wielded my spear like a kid but It doesn't seem to match my style.

Another arm grew from Platy's back as she took out another spear. Fu*ck

Platy then gave the spear in her left arm to the newly grown arm.

She held one spear with her real hands, and lowered her stance. That was the most orthodox stance of demon race spearcraft.

Let's start again, shall we~!Said Platy as the two arms on her back spun the spear in their hands And pointed its tip at me.

It was as if she had just told me that playtime was over.

Your second lesson is, it's normal for a demon race to have one or two aces in the hole.

I had those so-called aces in the hole too!!

Alas, it wasn't something to be used in mock combat

And one of those was that fu*cking demon god who was sprawled carefreely over there!

Ante, be my shield!

I refu~se!

You just need to buy me some time!

I'm a lazybum. You can't even expect one second.

Then stop saying that with that annoying smug face of yours!

Forbid Multiple Arms. Look, I'll protect you periodically.

Dammit, I'm so pissed off since her hexing is more effective!!

Done talking, Jilbagias?

Asked Platy with a gentle smile.

Grit your teeth, this will make you feel like your dying.

Platy's fighting style suddenly transformed into a completely different combat style compared to the one she used before, this time around, she got close with a glide-like footwork.

BRING IT ON!!

I intercepted her attack in desperation

Or so I said alas, she ended up beating me to a pulp again.

The end.

This was something that I heard later but, including various kinds of hexing from darkness attribute, since Platy's parent came from a distinguished clan too, she seems to be able to use her other lineage magic aside from the transpose curse.

Let's save the fun for later. After you grow strong enough for that

Said Platy while lovingly caressing my head as she propped my battered body.

Dammit This is why those demon race are!

I decided in my heart that I would equip Sindikaios(Faravugi's scalemail) in our next bout.

That was the special armor prepared to counter magic and hexing after all, my prediction was right on the money!

I Hadn't expected that I would need that armor For mock combat

I,who was exhausted both in body and mind passed out right there.
