I'm Actually Not Overpowered!

Silence engulfed Heshu's words, and the younger Demons—Kiko and Pierrus— gave him an irreverent gaze.

'This crazy boomer.' They must have thought.

"In any case, let's go retrieve Adu and Hogun from the battlefield. I saw them fall from the sky before, but I wasn't able to help them then."

The current battle between Lord Valefor's army and the human's forces was getting messier and dangerous by the minute.

The Demon Generals literally had nothing better to do, and they preferred not to join in on the fight.

As a result, the best thing to resort to was rescuing their comrades.

"Let's hope they're still alive." Kiko smiled.

"Idiot." Pierrus murmured in response.

"H-hey!"

Heshu sighed as he glanced at the two. It was tiring being around people like these, but wasn't he meant to be more grateful that he was alive?

'Still, though, how much longer will I live?'

This had been the perfect opportunity to be killed, and yet... he was saved once again.

Heshu wasn't actively seeking death, neither did he find any prospect in one's life being extinguished.

Regardless, he didn't despise his own death.

'I can't grow any further. I'm at my limit. I've been stocking up on Magic Items, but there's only so many I can afford or that are even available to the Middle Class.'

In the end, his life was slowly losing purpose. If it was his lot to live, he would live. If it was finally time to die, he had to accept it.

Not just for himself, but also for everyone around him.

'The Humans. The Demons... whether or not one wins or loses... it's determined by a person's lot.'

The three Demon Generals finally proceeded into the thick of the battle, having no other aim than to retrieve their two unconscious comrades.

'W-what's going on?!' Zabdel asked himself in utter shock.

No, his question was mostly rhetorical. He knew exactly what the problem was, and how horrific it was.

The Legendary Dragon Slayer had been true to his word, and took care of the Demon Army all by himself.

He would have won!

However, amid their cheers and early celebration of victory, someone else arrived. Someone who made them shiver, even though they were under the protection of an extremely sturdy barrier.

'W-who....is that?!' Sweat fell from.his face as he gulped.

Not only was he extremely scary, but even his level of danger could not be quantified by Zabdel.

The newcomer Demon summoned frenzied monsters, and also easily blasted away the Legendary Dragon Slayer.

"N-no... this is bad..." His thoughts accidentally leaked out and formed words.

The monsters were absolutely massive, and they were overpowering their champion's army. Not only that, but their champion seemed to be helpless in the enemy's presence.

It made Zabdel—no, everyone on Dulum—realize just how powerful the Demon was.

"I-is he... a leader among them?" He whispered.

Unease swirled in his heart, and Zabdel began pondering something else. Something akin to retreating.

"Most likely. He's most likely a Demon Lord." Sarah Lyniette spoke from behind him.

The Vice Guildmaster glanced at the Priestess, who also cast a slightly worried look.

"Are you concerned about the Legendary Dragon Slayer?" It was a foolish question, but the middle aged man asked anyway.

"Not exactly. I believe the Her—I mean, Sam, can overcome any difficulty."

Zabdel was amazed by the woman's faith. Even though he had just seen the Legendary Dragon Slayer perform so many miraculous things, he still wasn't certain that their champion could handle the current predicament.

Perhaps even he did not expect it!

"He will win... I believe that." Sarah softly smiled.

"Then why do you look worried?"

Zabdel must not have believed her. That or he was simply perplexed. Why would Sarah look worried when she had absolute faith.

It didn't add up.

"I'm not worried about Sam. I'm more concerned with the effects. Sam will win... but at what cost?"

Zabdel still didn't understand. What was she implying.

"A few craters have already been created due to this battle. You can expect to see some more. This fight... will be extremely destructive."

"A-ah..."

Zabdel slowly realized what Sarah was implying.

When two elephants fought, the grasses they trampled underneath would be the ones to suffer.

Even though the Legendary Dragon Slayer was powerful beyond imagination, so was his adversary.

"We should brace ourselves for impa—"

>BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMM<

Instantly, a portion of the blue barrier around them was invaded, and Sam—Dulum's champion—descended from the sky.

>BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!<

He helplessly crashed on into Dulum, devastating buildings in the process. Even in his draconic state, the man looked hurt beyond belief.

He groaned, shuddering as he struggled to rise from the debris caused by his impact into the city.

"So this is the city's interior." A voice appeared from above.

It belonged to Valefor, who was now within the dome. He had easily teleported inside—unaffected by the resistance offered by the city's azure layer of protection.

As for Sam, who was recognized by the barrier already, his body was allowed entry into the city.

As such, even though it wasn't his intention... the location of Sam's battle with the Boss was now in the very place he wanted to protect.

"Haa... haaa..."

I was running out of breath, and Mana.

Using [Five Seconds Rule: Advanced] allowed me to see more into the future, but it took a great chunk of my MP.

Besides, was there really a point in seeing the future when my opponent didn't even give me any breathing room?

I had been bombarded by him ever since the battle started, giving me no chance to rest. The only reason I still have MP left were my crystals, and thanks to this recent attack, all of them were now destroyed.

'I'm on my own.'

"Look at this place. Is it even worthy of being called a city?" Valefor's words echoed as he slowly descended.

I couldn't argue with him in that regard. I also thought the same thing when I first arrived here, after all.

However...

"A place full maggots and worms. The resources buried here are like pearls before swine. Vermin like you deserve none of them."

... This place was still precious to me!
