“Halt, this came flying here earlier.”

“Oh. Thanks, Sylph.”

Sylph handed a necklace that had been charred black to Halt.

“What’s that? You blasted that thing earlier so that it’ll fly toward here, right?”

“That’s a magic tool that Gad guy was wearing, meow.”

Ryuushin and Merdie both had excellent kinetic vision, so they noticed that Halt had used wind magic to send this choker, which had been lying on the ground, hurtling toward where they were. He had done that the moment Gad’s body was hit by his spell and had been obliterated.

“It didn’t disintegrate despite being hit by Halt’s spell, so it must be a rare item.”

“Yup. You’re right, Luna. This is probably the [Necklace of Revival].”

“Revival… Then, that person must’ve been revived numerous times before.”

“Hinata, that was probably Haru-nii’s power.”

“Indeed. Most revival-type magic tools are only effective when worn. Danna-sama had just buried a dungeon core in the ground at this place, so we should be inside his dungeon now. That must be how that man managed to be revived that many times.”

Halt had assigned former Demon King Sitri to manage the dungeon ruins that he had renovated, so she noticed that Halt had turned this place into his own dungeon.

“Heh. So this place has turned into a dungeon, huh.”

“Then we can go all out, meow!!”

Ryuushin and Merdie started warming up.

Both of them had been tormented—trained by Bakemono Halt for so long that they too had become far too powerful compared to humans. Almost no one could fight against Ryuushin when he went into full battle mode. Moreover, the two of them were already at the level where they had to hold back or else they would end up destroying the training center.

However, this entire area had turned into Halt’s dungeon.

It’s a dungeon created by a Bakemono that possesses an infinite amount of mana. In other words, even if Kokuryuu released his Breath full force, he didn’t have to worry that this place would crumble.

“I made it more durable than the Dungeon Ruins, so it’s fine even if you give it your all. I’ll support you in case things get dangerous halfway through, so you don’t have to worry.”

Halt could sense that Gad was considerably powerful compared to other people. That’s why he was suitable to be the test subject for checking the strength of his family.

He wanted to check the level of all his family members.

Halt would usually guess whether his family could win against majin and demons. However, it might also be problematic if they ended up being far too strong.

He was still bothered about the incident when he miscalculated his strength and almost hurt his beloved.

His family must be powerful enough so that they would be prepared if the Evil God planned to retaliate.

However, being strong was not enough. It was necessary that they knew full well just how strong they were. That’s because they would continue living in this world after all.

An opportunity presented itself when everything aligned together—the presence of Gad, a scum who was a menace to people, and a space that would allow his infinite revival—and that might be Gad’s greatest misfortune.

Normally, Halt wouldn’t unnecessarily annihilate a human, even if that person could be revived endlessly.

That’s because he knew all too well how fearsome death was.

He had already died before.

However, contrary to his usual principle, he already annihilated Gad, not only once, but four times. It was the first time that Halt attacked the same person multiple times since he came into this world.

He did this to reduce the mental burden on his family.

He was especially worried for Luna.

She had never directly attacked another person ever since she came into this world. It’s also the same this time around. She planned to use the flaming knight that was inside her bracelet to attack Gad instead of doing it directly herself, but…

Even so, it’s still a possibility that Luna might hesitate to use the bracelet. If that happened, Gad would surely take advantage of her momentary confusion and attack her. Halt naturally planned to protect her in case that happened.

However, Halt was aware just how different this world was compared to Luna and his former world.

People easily died after being attacked by monsters. Thieves steal and wouldn’t hesitate assaulting and killing their loved ones. Glenadale was a relatively peaceful kingdom, but this world was generally unsafe if viewed as a whole.

They must continue living in such a world.

Halt wanted his family to be able to attack other people without any hesitation if they needed to protect themselves.

“Go all out? Okay, we really can do that, right?”

“Fufufu. I’m gonna do that, meow.”

Ryuushin and Merdie didn’t have any problems with that.

They won’t hesitate attacking another person. However, Halt was also worried that they might go overboard.

“Danna-sama gave his permission. Besides, it’s been a long time since I vented out, so let’s do that.”

“Hmmm, I’m one of the Spirit Kings, so I should stop the former Demon King from going on a rampage, but… Well, I guess Halt is the one in control in this world, so it’s fine. I’m also going all out then!”

Sitri didn’t have any qualms killing humans, being a demon and former Demon King. Sylph was a Spirit King, so she was also different from humans.

“Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever fought full blast against someone else aside from Sitri. Hey, Haru-Nii. Can I do that too?”

“Yeah, go ahead. I also think I should be able to handle you going on a rampage, at the very least, or else it wouldn’t do. By the way, it’ll be fine even if you end up destroying the walls of this dungeon. It’s connected to the other world, so your attacks won’t go beyond this area. That’s why be at ease and go all out.”

“Okay, gotcha!”

Akari was blessed with <Indomitability> by the deity of the other world. Thanks to that skill, her mindset had adapted to a certain extent. It had become somewhat at par to an adventurer living in this world. If she felt she needed to attack humans and monsters, she wouldn’t feel bad about it. It’s like the skill protected her mental state.

The problem lies in—

“Won’t it be too much if I use flaming knights on him?”

Luna, and—

“I-I agree. I’m a bit uneasy about this.”

Hinata.

Halt could read minds, so he already knew how much of a scum Gad was after probing his thoughts. That’s why he agreed to let them have their way with him. In order to lessen Luna and Hinata’s apprehension, he annihilated Gad several times first.

However, that resulted in Luna and Hinata being worried for Gad.

“That guy is a scum. Going a little overboard is fine.”

Halt explained, but Luna and Hinata’s faces darkened.

It was then that the person in question solved their problem.

“Oy! Just how long do you plan on chit chatting, huh?! Hurry up and get your @$$ over here!… Oh, right. You blockhead. It’s your turn.”

“Hm? Are you talking about me?”

“Of course there’s no one else! I’m wanna save the girls for later and have fun with them, so hurry up you block—”

Gad stopped midsentence.

Freezingly cold bloodlust struck him, rendering him speechless.

“Ryuushin-sama. Can I go first?”

Gad’s hands and legs were shaking. Bloodlust that made him unable to move a single finger overflowed from Hinata.

“Y-Yeah. B-B-Be careful, o-okay?”

“Yes. Thank you for being concerned about me!!”

Ryuushin, the Kokuryuu dragonoid, saved her life before, and since then she has worshiped him. That same guy that she adored so much had been disparaged.

“Well then, I’ll be off now, Ryuushin-sama. I’ll do him in.”

Hinata walked as strings of light were repeatedly wrapped and layered onto her body.
