“Human beings, make your choice.”

Since I don’t speak the language of this country, I pose my questions to the humans who were captured in English. At my feet lies the Karajin, who has been rendered unconscious.

“Will you continue to work here until you die? Or shall you be exterminated by us for the sake of escaping from this world? Or will you escape with an indeterminable future? Or will you struggle to grasp your lives by your very own hands!”

Upon hearing my words, some are appalled, others are agitated, and some react with trepidation. But such reactions are ineluctable. After all, I am now in the base, “Red Tilt Taiji Cave” of the Demon King called “Crimson Scattering Spicy King” and I intend to defeat his kin, the Karajin. Furthermore, the captured humans were forced to confront a choice between living and dying, which is an unbelievable thing for a young girl like me to be doing.

Now, allow me to direct their thoughts.

“If you are anxious about not being armed, I will supply you with this.”

With these words, I beckon Izumi to draw near and she silently utilizes the ≪Bio Weapon Creation Axe≫ to produce a dozen or more axes comprised of bone.

In addition, although it is originally difficult to consecutively utilize ≪Bio Weapon Creation Axe≫ in this way since it involves bleeding and lacerations during the creation process, Izumi can achieve this thanks to her ≪Unbloody≫ and ≪Self-Regeneration (Weak)≫ skills.

“If you desire to save your family, loved ones, and friends, save them with your own hands; if you desire to avenge them, avenge them with your own hands.”

While my words appear to light a fire of courage in many people’s hearts, some people’s hearts are lit up with a darker flame.

“Let’s go. They regard those with power as justice. Then you, in the name of justice, shall reclaim all that they have deprived you of!”

A whirlwind of zeal and cheers erupts from among the people as I lift the dagger in my hand. Then I aim at Karajin’s head at my feet while simultaneously declaring.

“Everyone! Annihilate the adversaries!”

And so the war cry arises with the head of the Karajin being decapitated, thus signaling the commencement of the battle.

How fascinating.

That was my first impression of the girl, Hisano Ichiko.

She detests the “King of the Devouring Black Fog” to the point of wishing to exterminate him and has been training to attain the capability to actually kill him. However, on the other hand, she also seems to harbor feelings for Kurokiri.

I wonder if this conflation of emotion and abomination is truly unique to human beings.

And the “King of the Devouring Black Fog,” for his part, tolerates her, acknowledges her, and uses her for his own ends, which is to revolt against the God of Calamity. This is indeed a riveting development.

Now, this time she is inciting people to act on her and Kurokiri’s behalf. Should this succeed, the Spicy King will suffer a major blow, thus vastly boosting her and Kurokiri’s capabilities. For me, that would be a joyous event as it would signify that the experiment would make progress.

Nevertheless, with their current state, the girl and her group will not be a match for the Spicy King. The gap in power between the Demon King and the rest is still far too wide. Hence, if a battle were to ensue, they would be defeated without the slightest hope for victory.

Then, hmm.

In any event, the Spicy King is a Demon King that will not grow if his current stance persists. If so, there would be no harm thwarting him by lending the girls a helping hand.

Thus, I have made up my mind to stand on their side.

Well, it would be best if the battle doesn’t arise under the present circumstances.

We are advancing through the “Red Tilt Taiji Cave” composed of 6 people per team, conducting searches in each room and eradicating the enemies in this hierarchy.

The kin in their respective dungeons is certainly superior to us. Their status is about twice the original value of humans, and their HP, MP, and SP are also drastically amplified. But they have been conceited and careless. Therefore, they were unable to adapt to sudden insurgents and were overwhelmed by the disparity in numbers, leading them to be eliminated one after another.

Ultimately, individuals with such limited strength are insignificant in the face of sheer numbers. If a frontal attack could be stopped, another human being would simply launch an attack from behind. Even if they are clad in ≪Crimson Dust≫, trying to attack the vanguard is meaningless in front of the long-range attack skills that will be saturated with fire. While their individual skills can be somewhat effective, even so, it is not feasible for them to defeat this number of people at once unless their skills are at a high level. Not to mention, our number of people will only be multiplied back several times over.

Besides, there is a limit to the number of opponents, but our side can increase its number by rescuing those who are currently being held captive.

“Tsk! So now they’re playing the hostage card!”

And apparently, it’s my turn for the role.

My turn to step in at this stage is when a level 1 human being encounters demons that they can’t handle or a hostage-taking opponent like the one I am dealing with right now.

And what I do is remarkably simple.

“Listen up, you guys! If you…”

While the enemy is making threats, I simply approach them with ≪Fog Cloak≫ or ≪Short-range Teleportation≫ and behead them with ≪Decapitation≫. There exists neither any resistance nor any possibility of resistance from them. The power of level 7 is not a mere feat.

Now, shall we hunt as many as we can, “Crimson Scattering Spicy King”?
