The sound of breaking glass rings out and 4 mazoku jump in through the windows.

2 of the mazoku have demon swords just like Gabreido while the other two have swords Ive never seen before.

Using my demon eyes I identify them as death piercing sword Gidorest. Its a sword that can only be used for thrusting but its giving off an ominous magic power similar to origin killing magic.

Zekes aim is obvious. To fight off the 4 mazoku I would need to interfere with the magic and anti-magic barriers Zekes put up but due to <Zekt> I cannot attack Zeke until this competition is over.

If I release any magic it will need to dissipate before it touches his barriers.

To be honest I expected something like this to happen but its still a little disappointing though.

Of course, he could also be pretending to do something foolish like this since Im getting close to the truth.

Im revoking all rights to ask questions and point out lies. (Arnos)

This will end the competition though due to <Zekt> I cannot use magic for 5 seconds.

Youve misjudged me Demon King Arnos! It wont take 5 seconds either! (Zeke)

2 of the mazoku thrust their Gabreidos into <Lebaido> cancelling the magic formation before the other 2 quickly thrust their Gidorests into the origin that was there.

This is the end. (Zeke)

Zeke summons another Gidorest and also thrusts into the origin gouging it out.

Alright, 2 seconds left! Now for my other order the demon king Arnos (Zeke)

As soon as Zeke turned around and caught sight of me his expression froze and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Your other order? What was it? (Arnos)

The 4 mazoku were all dead. I killed them with my bare hands either by stamping on them, breaking their necks or thrusting my hand through their heart.

Zeke answered with a voice that sounded like it was being wrung out of him.

Impo.ssible.. They were the elites hand-picked from our forces.. (Zeke)

Did you think you could beat me just because you had sealed off my magic? (Arnos)

I kick the last mazoku away from me.

You however Zeke, have been lured in by me. You thought you had a chance of winning if you sealed my magic, but without hesitation, you destroyed Melheys origin. Thats basically telling me that killing Melheys was your top priority.

I cancelled the game purposely to impose the penalty on myself to see what hed do and this guy fell for it.

Whats the purpose of killing Melheys? Hes worthless to Eldomade and Nousgalia. (Arnos)

.Do you think Ill tell you? (Zeke)

Well, not at the moment. (Arnos)

I take a step forward.

..Just kill me. Even though it was only a battle of wits I still beat the demon king of tyranny. I have no regrets. (Zeke)

Fumu. Is that what the staff officer of the fire death king is saying? (Arnos)

As I said this a voice comes from the stairs.

Even though it was only a game its still disrespectful to even have the delusion that youd beaten him.

An old man with a long white beard comes up the stairs. Its one of the old seven demon emperors Melheys Boran.

Dont you think so chief staff officer of the fire death king Zeke Ozma-dono. (Melheys)

Zeke didnt answer straight away. He stared at Melheys using his demon eyes to examine his origin like he didnt believe it.

I know I destroyed it.. using the sword Gidorest that was made after you reincarnated. Even Origin Regeneration <Agronemut> shouldnt have been possible (Zeke)

It was just an imitation you destroyed. I secretly switched them out. (Arnos)

.You switched them out.? There was no difference to Melheys origin (Zeke)

Zeke keeps muttering to himself not understanding at all.

Its a new magic I learnt recently. Youve already seen it through <Rimnet>. (Arnos)

You dont mean <Eleonor>.!? No, but that means you used an innocent new life as a victim.? (Zeke)

Indeed, I couldnt bring myself to do that. I used <Eleonor> to create a pseudo-origin without consciousness or will. Visually its the same but its not a life. (Arnos)

.Imposs..ible. The war has only just ended. Theres no way youve studied <Eleonor> to that extent.. (Zeke)

What? I only tried it because I thought about it. I havent researched <Eleonor> at all. (Arnos)

Without even studying it you learnt a new type of origin magic!? (Zeke)

Zekes voice came out almost like a scream.

If youve been studying me then youd know thats common for me. Apparently you havent done enough research on me prior to our meeting. (Arnos)

Zeke grits his teeth.

Its obvious hes looking for a way to escape as he starts talking.

When exactly did you substitute Melheys origin? (Zeke)

When you handed Gabreido to me. At that time you were cautious of 2 things. Had I noticed those 4 dead mazoku over there and would I use Gabreido to cut your spell blocking <Lebaido>. Because you were cautious of those things I used <Eleonor> to replace the origins. (Arnos)

Well, to be fair it was a blind spot on Zekes side because he wasnt aware the magic existed. This is the reason I didnt care about the penalty.

Didnt you say I lost this battle of wits when I accepted? (Arnos)

I take another step forward.

You already lost when you chose to fight against me. (Arnos)

Zekes expression of regret shows that hes realised hes got nowhere to run to before suddenly falling to his knees like a puppet with its strings cut.

He committed suicide by using <Silica>.

Did you think Id let you go? (Arnos)

I interfered with part of the magic circle of <Silica> and rearranged it.

In this peaceful world, you have challenged me and lost. I hope youre prepared for that. (Arnos)

I draw a magic formation on the floor. Particles of magic power rise from formation and an owl appears from them.

Mazoku Training <Azuheb>.

Its a pretty good vessel and Ive still got some questions for you. (Arnos)

Zekes face shows his disappointment.

.Ku.. I cant even answer you. Permission needs to come from Eldomade-sama. (Zeke)

Zeke falls forward and I cremate his body with Flame <Grega>.

Come Zeke. (Arnos)

The reincarnated owl perched on my arm like a faithful familiar.

TN: Not gonna lie last chapter and this chapter was an exercise in boredom for me to translate. So many words and hardly anything to show for it. The whole game was pointless apart from the exposition on the child of god last chapter and the last bit of this chapter with Zeke plus the author keeps repeating themselves (it feels like word filling sometimes). I really hope is better.
