I was stunned when our weapons clashed. The maddened centaur used that opportunity to quickly close our distance, bringing its scorching flames right in front of me.

—Damn it. Like this I can't even get near it anymore.

Making the most out of our clashing weapons, I pushed the centaur back, then as I gathered ether into my arms, I repelled the centaur.

"Abominable... Human..." The maddened centaur seemed lost for a moment, as if it was hallucinating of a place not here. When it woke up, it came charging again. Its strength seemed endless. No matter how much I cut it, I just can't seem to hurt it. I never thought this battle would be this difficult.

More and more fire burned as the centaur attacked, the temperature around it gradually rose until that annoying wall of fire came to view.

It seems the more I cut it, the longer it spends hallucinating. Technically, that's an opening I should be able to use, but the heat is making it hard to approach. Right... In other words, I can't do anything right now.

After being stunned for the umpteenth time and recovering, the centaur turned to me. "Filthy... Goblin..."

The centaur already looked no different from a blazing flame. The flames from inside the wounds I've cut could be seen wavering. How could someone turn into a monster like this?

Is it obsession? Or a terrifying grudge?

There is probably no one who hates the humans as much as this centaur.

—But even then... I won't lose.

If I withdraw from this fight, this mad monster would surely hurt the people following me. Besides, didn't I vow to destroy everything that blocked my path?

Gritting my molars, I held my long sword tight.

—Let's do this!

I glared at the enemy before me.

"GURURUUuAaAaAA!!" My World Devouring Howl signaled the start of my counterattack. Ether filled my legs as I kicked off against the ground and leaped like a beast.

The wall of flames approached.

"Let my body be inviolableShield!"

Black flames covered my body as I charged into the mouth of hell with my sword wielded to my right. The centaur's spear descended to greet me, but I stopped my body and dodged. The force behind that spear as it grazed me was like that of a huge tree.

—EnDurE iTTTt!

I gripped my sword as tight as I could to keep myself from trying to cover my face from the heat or run away from this hell. The spear only grazed me, but the force behind it caused blood to drip down my cheeks.

Still, I endured and stepped forward with my left foot with so much power it seemed I was trying to crush the ground.

"Turn Me into a BladeEnchant!"

As soon as the centaur's body came to view from beyond the flames, I let loose my sword from below!

"GYaaaAAga!" The centaur staggered.
