“EDITOR: Ghost Ape”
「The spirit thinks that I’m a part of it?」
「Yeah, right now the spirit is riding on your head right? Lord Evil Dragon’s scales are almost the same in colour as the mountain rocks, your body is also as big as a mountain and the view from up there is really high . I think it’s mistaking you for a part of a mountain . 」
「Uhhh… . ? Although I don’t really understand, do you think that’s important info for our current situation? –ugyaaaa!!!」
That was the moment I felt an unbelievable force crash into the side of my stomach .
Sheina that was just in front of me, disappeared to the corner of my vision, my body rebounded through the plains like a rubber ball .
In fact, I really became a rubber ball .
I don’t know when but the Hunting God’s black claw covered my whole body except my head and reduced the impact received .
「…The hell is that?! Lame! Hey Revendia! After all I went through to seriously challenge you to a duel, are you making fun of me?!」
I heard the mannequin controlled by the weaver complain .
It had taken a low posture, probably due to taking on the force from the high speed movement and tackle .
Although they said the power of two fingers, they’re still a Demon King Commander . Normally, I would have definitely died .
However, even so, I’m still safe .
On top of that, even though the Hunting God’s black claw activated, it didn’t consume my stamina .
「Ms . Spirit, are you the one who helped me?」
「Mountain, round . 」
「Ah, so it was you that made me into this ball-like state . Thank you . Whew, now I can rest easy . We’ll be fine if we just stay inside the bal-」
「Hey!! Hurry up and get out of that lame ball Revendia!!!」
I didn’t manage to finish my sentence, as the controlled mannequin kicked me along with the ball . My sense of balance became jumbled as I rebounded, and as soon as I landed, I would be kicked another direction .
I was literally played around with like a ball, bouncing around with the spirit .
「Ms . S-s-spirit, what should I do, I’m about to throw up, ueeeeh…」
「Landslide . 」
「I’m sorry it’s not gravel but vomit . 」
As my sparkling tears fell, I threw up a little when we rebounded into the sky .
But thankfully nobody could find fault with my disgraceful appearance .
Since at the same time I vomited, the spirit also vomited large amounts or gravel from its mouth .
The word landslide really described it well with that amount .
「Wh!?」
The ball’s(me) landing spot was where the weaver’s mannequin waited and the gravel mercilessly poured onto her .
The wide green plains were almost buried in dark grey gravel in a matter of seconds .
The spirit burped casually as we bounced on top of that gravel .
「You… mimicked me?」
「Mountain is a mountain . 」
Communication was distressing .
When I was still feeling very troubled, from far away came Sheina, out of breath . From the first kick, we went far away from her so she didn’t get buried within the gravel .
「Lord Evil Dragon! Are you okay? Ah, what’s with this gravel?! Also what’s with that ball?」
「Well, this is because Ms . Spirit helped me . 」
And so I explained how the spirit mimicked me after I vomited, as soon as I released the ball form .
It seems like Sheina understood as she clapped her hands together .
「I knew it . It’s seems like the spirit is having trouble distinguishing between itself and Lord Evil Dragon, that’s why the spirit mistook your actions as its own actions so it mimicked you . 」
「Ehh, is that true?」
「Let’s give it a try . Lord Evil Dragon please reply with “yes” to all my questions . 」

「Okay, I understand . 」
After clearing her throat, she made a very kind smile .
「You are the spirit of the mountains correct?」
「Yes」
「Mountain become . 」
As I replied, so did the spirit .
「You are the spirit who wields enormous magic power and at times gives help to humans, correct?」
「Yes」
「Correct」
Ooooh, if I lead, communication is possible . It’s possible that it’s just mimicking me but I can take this as a positive direction right?
「Then, you will form a contract to lend me, Sheina, your power correct?」
「Yes… . Hey wait a minute! Isn’t this the technique of a scammer where the questions before were just fakes leading into the real question?!」
「It’s fiiiine, it’s not like you’re losing something! It’s fine right? Ms . Spirit?」
「Acknowledged」
「See! It said oka–」
As soon as she rejoiced, just like when I received magic power from Rēko, Sheina also collapsed .
No, it’s a bit different this time . Different from completely losing consciousness, she still held on a bit .
「Ar-are you okay? What’s wrong Sheina?」
「It’s strange… The magic power of a spirit should be harmless to humans but it was really severe… In fact, isn’t this the same magic power as Rēkos?… Ah」
「Now that I remember, in order to supplement the spirits magic deficiency, Rēko transferred over a few hundred years worth of magic power . 」
Just a moment ago, the evil magic power I gained was probably caused by the spirit, who’s magic was mutated by Rēko .

「Ms . Spirit, let’s take back the contract okay?」
「Change mind . 」
The flowing magic disappeared suddenly, Sheina, who had her burden disappear, was clenching her fist in frustration .
「Pity… What a shame… A chance like this may never appear again, I couldn’t take it . 」
「Well, using such a scammer-like method won’t ever work out . 」
「I guess you’re right, ahaha . By the way, is Lord Evil Dragon fine receiving such an evil magic power?」
「Uhh, It’s complicated but I’m fine with Rēkos magic power . 」
Sheina tilted her head in confusion . Well of course, even I couldn’t figure out the reason and just left it as is .
「Well whatever, we safely defeated the enemy . 」
Sheina dropped her gaze towards the gravel beneath her feet . It piled up like a small mountain, I don’t think it’s possible to escape from that weight .
Or so I thought .
Suddenly from the bottom of the pile came a dazzling light, and an overwhelming amount of magic power flowed out .
「Lord Evil Dragon! Take out that ball thing from before!」
Sheina’s decision was fast, I did as she said and took out the black claw and formed a cushion like ball, then she jumped on top of my head .
From just that instant, came a huge explosion which shook the earth and blew away the gravel .
「Owaaaah?!」
Once again I flew into the sky spinning with only my neck outside .
Sheina clung onto my horn and readily evaluated the situation .
「Lord Evil Dragon, be careful! That mannequin still seems to be alive!」
We landed and rolled through the plains bouncing along the way .

「Oook, it’s time for the third finger . How cold Revendia, I’m here with full force trying to duel you but you didn’t even take me seriously and just let a spirit attack me . Don’t you think that’s a bit boorish?」
If you think about it normally, this would be a hopeless situation but, if you look at it closely, the situation is now different . The spirits’ gravel attack worked against it, or maybe it was the after effects of that huge explosion but even though she spoke leisurely, the Ikumen’s body was extremely damaged .
Specifically speaking, he was moving using the strings hung from the heavens like they were just dragging him along .
His long hair was also in tatters with parts burned by the explosion like a perm mixed in and with smoke coming from his joints .
We immediately entered an emergency meeting .
I whispered with Sheina who clung onto my horn .
「Lord Evil Dragon, isn’t it possible to defeat it if we throw another attack like the previous one?」
「I also think so but now she’s on her guard right?」
「…No, I think that she’s more cautious of Lord Evil Dragon instead of the spirit . Hey Lord Evil Dragon, can you reply with “yes” just like before? I’ll say “vomit” and you’ll vomit okay? like before, you’ll listen to all my orders . 」
「Yes」
「Acknowledged」
As she said that, she stood with one hand holding my horn .
「Also lastly, I just realised something . Just before when the spirit said to “run”, Lord Evil Dragons legs moved on their own right?」
「Now that I think about it, you’re right . 」
Thanks to that, we almost rushed toward the weaver demons circle .
「That should be the spirit acting in the opposite pattern as when Lord Evil Dragon took the lead . 」
「What do you mean?」
In other words, Sheina said as she tightly held my horn –
「Forward! Ms . Spirit, take off! Full speed ahead!」
「Acknowledged」
The next moment, my legs started dashing crazily .
