Abel:  Abel couldn’t stand after taking that blow, and he did not have the time to hide himself with cloaking. The demon beast opened its giant mouth, as if to swallow Abel whole. There was no time for Subaru to think.

Subaru:  “I come back from the dea—” It had been a long time since he had blurted this out, but having retraced his steps through the books of the dead in the Pleiades Watchtower, trying to lure a demon beast with this trick was a vivid experience. That was why he’d even managed to think of it in the moment. “Gah, gaah…” Color drained from the world, sound faded, and he couldn’t feel the air passing over him. Instead, a dark shadow spilled into the still world. It was a thing of the same quality as the massive wave of dark shadows rushing toward Subaru when he’d been so battered and exhausted after they’d completed the examinations, after he had lost Shaula.

Subaru:  “Yeah, I’ve heard it a million times.” The next instant, he felt a hand coil around his heart and a terrible pain, as if his entire body was being crushed. Instead of his vision turning red, it was more like his eyeballs were squashed by the destructive force. It was a pain that never grew easier, and a despair and tenacity that never seemed to end.

Subaru:  “Aaaaaaaaaaaah!! !” Landing with his feet on the demon beast’s upper jaw, he tripped and started falling forward pathetically. The white horn with the sword still halfway through it was right in front of him. Just a little more and it would cut off the horn. Subaru punched its hilt with his right hand, using all of his might. Of course, it was just a punch from Subaru. He did not expect it to be enough to break the demon beast’s thick horn. But it wasn’t just a punch, either. It was also a blow using a gemstone imbued with magic. The jewel cracked as it hit the hilt of the sword, emitting a red glow. The next moment, the light swelled, and an explosion erupted around Subaru’s right arm and the snake’s head, blinding and deafening him.
