That Time Hori And Miyamura Got Reincarnated In Another World (COMPLETED)

Chapter 22: The Start Of Meeting

Chapter 22: The Demon Lords Gather

As the tension in the hall simmered, the next wave of demon lords made their grand entrances. Among them were two figures that immediately drew Horimiya's attention: Demon Lord Leon Cromwell, the elusive blond man with an air of indifference, and Demon Lord Guy Crimson, with his flowing red hair and the unmistakable aura of power radiating from him. Both stood out, not just for their imposing presences but because they were as unpredictable as the situation itself.

"Ah, you must be the ones causing quite the stir lately," Guy Crimson remarked, his sharp eyes locking onto Hori and Miyamura. "You've already become demon lords, haven't you?"

Hori and Miyamura exchanged glances but remained composed. "We're here for justice," Hori replied. "Nothing more."

Guy Crimson smirked. "Justice, huh? This should be fun."

As Leon stood silently, observing them with a cold demeanor, Milim jumped up excitedly. "Oh! Hori, Miyamura! You'll love Guy, he's strong! And Leon too, though he's all quiet and mysterious," she added, laughing.

The room filled up quickly as the rest of the demon lords took their places, the atmosphere becoming dense with conflicting energies. Clayman, seated across the room, shot a venomous glare at Horimiya.

The meeting began, but it wasn't long before Clayman's venomous tongue lashed out. "I don't understand why these two children are even sitting among us," he sneered, gesturing toward Horimiya. "They are unfit to be demon lords. They are weak, and their ideals of peace are nothing but childish fantasies."

Before Miyamura could respond, Hori stood calmly, her eyes locking with Clayman's. "It's funny you'd say that, Clayman, considering you were the one who tried to destroy our kingdom. Or have you forgotten?"

The room grew tense as Hori revealed the solid evidence they had gathered of Clayman's deeds-the destruction of Tempest, the army he had sent, and the suffering he had caused.

"I destroyed nothing!" Clayman spat, his voice rising with fury. "And even if I did, your kingdom is already being destroyed by my army today."

But instead of reacting in anger, Hori and Miyamura shared a knowing look. "Oh, that's where you're wrong," Miyamura said calmly. "Our friends should have already dealt with your pathetic army."

Clayman's eyes widened in disbelief. His fury boiled over, and with a yell, he leapt to his feet, summoning his magic. "You insolent fools! I'll finish what I started, right here and now!"

Before anyone could react, Guy Crimson raised a hand, creating a battle sphere that surrounded the center of the room. "Fight here," Guy said with a smirk. "Let's see who's truly worthy."

Hori and Miyamura stepped into the sphere, facing Clayman head-on. "This ends today," Hori declared, her voice filled with resolve.

The battle that followed was fierce, with magic clashing against magic, the room filling with the sound of crackling energy. Clayman, though powerful, found himself overwhelmed by Horimiya's teamwork and strength.

Just as Clayman was about to unleash another attack, a familiar voice boomed across the battlefield. "I couldn't miss out on this, could I?" It was Veldora, appearing unexpectedly, his powerful aura filling the room. With a grin, he joined the fight alongside Hori and Miyamura, his playful antics making Clayman furious.

With the combined strength of Veldora, Milim, Ramiris, Shion, and Ranga, they overwhelmed Clayman, driving him back at every turn. Eventually, Clayman's magic faltered, and with a final blow from Hori, he was defeated and destroyed.

The room fell silent as the battle sphere dissolved, and the demon lords, stunned by what they had just witnessed, watched in awe.
