In a certain area, four figure could be seen running at fast pace on their mount.

“Is it really true, Heinz?”

One of them asked that question toward the leader of the group, Heinz.

“There's no room to doubt, it was the Sage Shera herself that told me about it.The 72nd demon king has appeared.”(Heinz)

“Seriously! Will we be okay?”(male adventurer)

“Bare yourself, Zane! If it's not us then who will do it?”(Female adventurer)

“I know, but it's a demon king you know?”(Zane)

“Calm yourself, Zane. It's as Aria said. Plus it's a newly born Demon king, our group wouldn't be taken down by something of that level.”(???)

“That's the spirit, Dionis! "The light of Justice" will not fear some ramdom demon king!”(Aria)

“You sure are positive”(Zane)

*

“Is that it?”(Zane)

A beautiful young girl with black hair and black eyes stood in front of them.

It was so beautifull, in fact that, if not for the evil aura that leaked from her, anyone would fall in love.

“What ominious aura!”(Aria)

“It's strange, why is it not moving”(Heinz)

“We don't care about that right! Just kill it before it move”(Zane)

“But what if it's a clone”(Heinz)

“Something with that much aura wouldn't be a clone right”(Zane)

“I... I guess you're right”(Heinz)

Nodding to the suggestion, Heinz brandish his sword and slowly approach the demon king.

☆☆☆

Black.

That's the only thing you could see in this place.

And in it a certain voice reverberated strongly.

“Why!!? Why are you not moving!!!? You puny demon!!!”(???)

Chaotic God • Zord shouted annoyingly toward his 'tool'.

“You dare defy my will!!! If you're not gonna move, then I'll destroy you myself”(Zord)

Prepared to destroy the defective product, Zord heard a voice.

“Was it you?”(???)

“—!!”(Zord)

“Was it you that controlled me?”(???)

“You! You dare talk to me, a god!”(Zord)

“I see. You really are as I imagined you.”(???)

“Shut up! Just die!”(Zord)

As he was fed up of the tool that desobeyed him, Zord strecthed his hand and tried to reach the tool's soul, but, he soon became confused.

“I can't reach it. How!!?”(Zord)

“Mark my word, God. There will be a day when I'll make you regret everything that you have done to me, I'll make you pay for every person that my hand killed because of you.

So, all you have to do is wait, okay”(???)

“Wha—!! You dare threaten me!! A mere tool dare!! Don't think you can get aw—”(Zord)

Before he could finish his word, light began pouring in the previously black space.

And before long, white was the only thing you could see.

☆☆☆

“—!!”(Heinz)

Before Heinz could approach the demon king, a gigantic pillar of light began to surround her.

“I told you to kill her!! Heinz!”(Zane)

“S-sorry.”(Heinz)

“Something is still strange, leader! That thing, it got weaker!”(Dionis)

“What!?”(Heinz)

As the pillar of light slowly disappear, the appearance of the beautiful demon king was there but her hair and eye had become white and the evil aura she leaked also disappeared.

“Hm? Who are you?”(???)

As she regained her consciousness, she finally perceived the group that came to subjugate her.

“My name is Heinz.”

“I see. I am Zero. So? What do you want from me?”

“We came here to subjugate a demon king but...it's you, right?”(Heinz)

“No. Not anymore.”(Zero)

“What do you mean by that?”(Heinz)

“You are free to interpret it however you want. The fact is that there is no demon king here anymore, so you can go back to where you've come”(Zero)

“I see, but even if what you've said is true we still need to take you with us”(Heinz)

“Sorry but that I can't.”(Zero)

As if that was the signal, every member in Heinz's party began to take stance for battle

Heinz's party began to surround Zero.

“Sorry but it's not like we can let you go like that though.”(Heinz)

“Soul eater”(Zero)

As she whisper that, the countless vengefull spirit around each person that surrounded her began to be absorbed in her body.

《Soul power +225》

“Wh—what's that”(Heinz)

“Currently I am no match for you. So that's why, this is a goodbye”(Zero)

At the moment she said that, she bowed toward Heinz and then disappeared.

“—!! How did she do that”(Zane)

“I don't know but we need to report this to the king”(Heinz)

‘This is my limit, it seems.’

I managed to get away from them for now.

But I can't run away forever, that is why I need more power.

First I need to see my status.

Title: None

Soul world.

A skill that transport my body to the soul world.

Without this skill I wouldn't have been able to run away from Heinz's partie.

But if I have stayed in that world any further, I would have been trapped there for eternity.

At most, I can stay there for 30 seconds, but if I raise my soul power this skill might be one of the most powerfull one.

For now, I need a training area.

A place full of monster would be ideal.

‘—!’

“I guess this place is what I research”

“GAAAAAAAH”

A pack full of orc approached her with incredible pace.But when one of them entered Zero's range, it's head exploded.

《Strengh +5》

The other orc seeing one of them dying so easily got frightened.

“So this is soul magic. It's really similar to strenghening magic but at a whole other level.”

Saying that she glanced at the corps of the orc beside her.

Soon after a light emitted from the corps's body then entered Zero.

《Soul power +5》

‘I see, because of my skill the soul of those that I kill would be absorbed by me automatically.’

Moreover with 'regain', my growth rate is increased.

Good.

If it's with these power, I can surely reach godhood.

“Well then, who's next?”
