Chapter 15: I Was Wrong Twice!
Chapter 15 - I Was Wrong Twice!
Under everyone's attention, the weapon in the hands of the one-horned devil shattered into pieces under Mahiro's violent attack like a storm.
Obviously, the weapon was useless.
And the one-horned devil, who had used the advantages of his weapon and body to keep Mahiro at bay, found unable to move.
"Hateful!"
The one-horned devil held a broken halberd in his hand, glaring at it with bone chilling eyes.
Such a short iron rod was difficult to maintain, let alone use as a weapon.
He was puzzled.
Obviously, this halberd was in good use just now, so why did it suddenly break up?
Yes, not cut off.
Instead, it was broken into pieces.
If it were cut off, it would be excusable. But what was the matter with it being broken into pieces?
Rias and Kiba Yuuto also felt a little weird.
The weapon in Mahiro's hand was not a Sacred Gear; it should be a relatively sharp blade, yet it achieved this unexpected effect.
Obviously, this must be attributed to Mahiro's own strength.
"Damn human, not only seeking help but also destroying my weapon in a despicable way."
The one-horned devil was furious and threw the remaining halberd angrily, using it as a hidden weapon.
Boom--!
Mahiro swung his sword and blocked it.
"Don't think you can beat me like this!"
The one-horned devil let out a loud roar, suddenly lowering his body and head.
The one horn on his head suddenly became sharp and thick, and magical fluctuations appeared around his body.
The next moment, the one-horned devil, like a speeding truck, charged towards Mahiro without hesitation.
Whether it was speed or strength, it was far beyond the level just now.
Mahiro's eyes were full of fighting intent, and his steps quickened. "It's just, isn't this seeking death?"
If the one-horned devil had been as cautious as before and even picked up a random tree in the woods as a weapon, Mahiro would have had to expend a lot of effort.
However, this kind of rampage, completely exposing the body's weaknesses to Mahiro, was no different from offering to die.
At this moment, in Mahiro's eyes, the one-horned devil was a big piece of meat full of death lines.
"This aura has reached the level of a Middle-class Devil."
Himejima Akeno's eyes narrowed, sensing the rising power of the one-horned devil, the smile on her face began to fade.
"Prepare to intervene. At the level of a Middle-class Devil, he should be difficult to deal with."
Rias nodded.
After watching the battle briefly, Rias judged that Mahiro's strength was roughly the best among Low-Class Devils, not at the level of a Middle-class Devil.
And the one-horned devil seemed to be using a special method to raise his demonic energy to that of a Middle-class Devil.
From Rias and the others' perspective, Mahiro, who had been fighting the one-horned devil before, naturally would not be a match for him now.
If they didn't intervene, he was likely to fall into a dangerous situation.
"Koneko, stop that stray devil."
This kind of stray devil naturally had to be dealt with by Koneko, who was also a strength type.
"Yes, President."
Toujou Koneko nodded, waved her fist, and was ready to act. But the next moment, a scene made them all tremble.
Facing the one-horned devil, whose strength suddenly rose to the level of a Middle-class Devil, Mahiro not only had no intention of escaping but recklessly went up to him.
"This reckless guy!"
Himejima Akeno made a rare complaint. For physical collision with the one-horned devil's level, apart from Koneko, no one could take it head-on.
Lightning flashed in her hand, ready to use magic to stop the one-horned devil.
She didn't want to see the tragic scene of Mahiro being injured by the one-horned devil.
"Don't interfere!"
Mahiro also noticed the movements of Rias's group and coldly warned them.
Mahiro was very clear. Let's not talk about Toujou Koneko and Kiba Yuuto, Rias and Himejima Akeno were true High-Class Devils.
If these two acted, they would definitely be able to kill the one-horned devil before him.
He had been running around all night, and his quest was about to be completed.
How could he let them ruin it halfway?
Hearing this, Rias was a bit dumbfounded. She was clearly trying to help him, but he warned her instead.
"He doesn't appreciate good intentions."
Toujou Koneko paused and said expressionlessly, with a trace of fluctuation in her voice, obviously displeased by Mahiro's words.
"President, let's wait until the winner is decided between them. As a swordsman, I can understand his mood."
Kiba Yuuto's eyes were firm. "In the face of a strong enemy, even if he fails, we must personally see it. If we help now, it will be a way of disrespecting the other party."
If Mahiro knew that Kiba Yuuto had such a high opinion of him, he would be dumbfounded.
He was not a knight; he didn't want others to steal his prey and cause his quest to fail.
"Okay."
Rias nodded and agreed with Kiba Yuuto's approach. Although she didn't want to see Mahiro injured by the stray devil, since he had already refused, it was naturally not easy to intervene.
And Kiba Yuuto's words made sense.
However, the next moment, a scene that shocked all four of them appeared again.
They saw Mahiro and the devil rushing towards each other, but at the moment of collision, Mahiro exerted force under his feet, jumped high, and slashed the opponent's head with his sword.
Puff--!
The scene where Mahiro was knocked out did not appear. Instead, the one-horned devil was split in half from head to toe with a sword.
This completely different result left Rias and the others stunned.
Rias widened her eyes. "How is that possible?"
Himejima Akeno lightly covered her small mouth, her eyes glowing with brilliance. "He really does create 'surprises' for us."
"That pervert is so strong."
Koneko couldn't help but blurt out in disbelief.
"What a sharp sword."
Kiba Yuuto clenched the hilt of his sword with a fighting intent.
"I didn't expect I was wrong twice; he even hid his strength."
Seeing the one-horned Devil collapse, Rias shook her head involuntarily.
The first time was when Mahiro confessed.
Rias didn't notice that Mahiro had decent strength and thought he was just an ordinary person.
The second time was just now.
When the one-horned devil's strength suddenly increased, she originally thought Mahiro would fail, but the result was completely opposite.
Mahiro not only was not defeated by the one-horned devil but ended the opponent's life with one strike.
