“Really, stop with the jokes please.”
This was the current state of Dino’s mind.
A new person had appeared as soon as he thought that he had defeated the previous opponent. Moreover, their purpose appeared to be to make him expose his skill.
He failed in his objective to dispose of Ramiris and he had a feeling that even escaping on his own would be a difficult situation.
It seemed to be true that somehow he had been observed and even Dino’s intention to kill the people who were guarding Ramiris seemed to have been predicted.
In the first place he didn’t know whether the person in question, Ramiris, had escaped.
This was an abnormal thing.
“Don’t tell me that the conversation was with an illusion since the beginning?”
But, he possess an Ultimate Skill, not to mention it was an Ultimate Skill with hypnosis as its main power, so he thought that it’s impossible for him to be deceived by illusion.
He knew the strength of the insect type devil named Zegion.
When the Empire’s forces invaded the labyrinth, with his overwhelming fighting power, he was the devil who disposed of the high ranking individuals of the Empire’s forces.
He was an existence that could be called as the strongest in there, inside the labyrinth created by Ramiris.
(That’s why I hated working……)
Dino was formulating the best course of action to be taken in this place, whilst letting out a sigh andhaving thoughts of giving up.
Zegion stepped forward calmly without caring about Dino.
「What is it? Do you have any last words?」
Zegion asked.
「Did you guys ignore my incursion on purpose to uncover my powers?
Don’t joke with me, that’s so dirty!」
Dino who had complained for the time being, ignored his own actions which were full of faults.
Even though it’s no more than a mere outburst of anger, he understood that it couldn’d be helped even if he had said it.
「What ridiculous words, that’s how a fight should be.」
「I already know that!」
The exchanges of words are over, tension runs between the two.
Dino knew of Zegion’s strength. That was an advantage that Dino had, of course he’d use it.
Zegion possessed an ability that specializes in combat that exceeds the level of a Unique Skill.
If comparing only in close-combat ability, than Zegion would be stronger than Dino who has Ultimate Skill.
Dino’s ability was more inclined towards mental attacks, and so it was different from the direct physical offensive abilities.
However, the ability of Dino’s『Slothful King Belphegor』could be interweaved into his sword techniques too, creating a phantasmagoric illusion sword.
It obstructed the enemy’s perception and could make him continue on with the battle advantageously.
Also, he could acquire a fighting strength that’s beyond a master swordsman, like Albert, by releasing his stored power with perfect timing.
