Chapter 289: The end of the dark jobs and afterwards<hr>


    The dark-fallen people who had gathered at the Colosseum were not happy to see me.


    "After all that bravado on the bulletin board, it''s just like that"


    "The dark job reputation has gone down the drain, hasn''t it?"


    "He used a weapon that was given to him by the dark guild in addition to the rewards from the duel event and he looks like that? It''s only natural for it to go down"


    The dark summoner brothers had advertised their match with Takuto on a bulletin board dedicated to the dark fallen jobs, stating that they would surely win and inviting people toe and see Takuto''s defeat.


    Then someone with a dark job asks.


    "Then, can you beat that young girl summoner?"


    "No, I can''t. I was convinced when I saw it up close. That''s a bad guy if I get involved"


    "Right. I agree with you"


    I suddenly heard the voice of a third person. It was Ruin-san who called out to me. There were hundreds of yers around her.


    "Wh, What is it? You guys"


    "They are novice yers who were defeated by you guys"


    Hearing this, the dark yers understood the situation.


    "Wait, wait! We don''t have a bounty on our heads right now"


    "It''s already posted at the adventurer''s guild"


    Eh...


    The dark yers are in a panic. The novice yers look angrily at them.


    "How dare you kill me?"


    "That hurt like hell"


    "You''ll have to pay for the money you took with your bounty!"


    Oo!!


    The dark yers rushed out to escape, but the colosseum was already surrounded and all the dark yers in the colosseum were caught and sent to jail.


    There were men watching it from the roof of the building.


    "I didn''t expect them to prepare such a trap"


    "It''s amazing how strong he is. The world is a big ce"


    It was the samurai Tetsushin and the Dark Knight who had fought in the finals of the duel event.


    "Why did you tell me?"


    "Because you''re not a bad guy. And I want to fight you again"


    "You''re a weird guy. But by the looks of it, you have permission, don''t you?"


    "Yeah. I have a message for you. He wants to fight you fair and square"


    The dark knightughs.


    "Tell him I look forward to it"


    "Yes. See you soon. Don''t get Despena"


    "Who are you talking to? I''ll win next time"


    And the dark knight disappeared.


    Instead, it was in the forest, essible from the Reich''s roads.


    "Young girl summoner...you''re a horrible person. I didn''t expect him to trap us as well"


    The dark ninja who came in third ce in the duel event had discovered that the adventurer''s guild had resurrected the wanted list and had fled the Reich Empire in a panic.


    "!!?"


    The dark ninja used his sign detection to detect a yer''s presence.


    "That''s great, Sasuke. How did you notice Takuto-dono''s trap, degozaru?"


    There was Hokage in a tree.


    "It''s you...huhu. I didn''t expect to be led into this"


    "You are quick to understand, degozaru. I had hoped to settle things with you in a duel, degozaru, but as a ninja, I cannot back down when a certain person asks me to"


    "Hou. Who is it?"


    "How could I tell you, degozaru?"


    Hokage had received a request from a yer who had seen how the dark ninja had abandoned them in the battle against Gerbera Grow.


    Some yers had atoned for their sins well without going dark in the fight against Gerbera Grow. They had told information about the enemy that had attacked them while they were being transported and after reflecting on their actions in the prison, they had returned to being normal yers.


    "That''s true. So what are you going to do about it?"


    "You will be the first victim of my original ninjutsu, degozaru!"


    Hearing Hokage''s words, Kazekage, Mizukage, Raikage, and Tsuchikage move all at once. Then, the wire installed in the trap restrains the dark ninja''s leg and the wire with the bomb attached approaches the dark ninja.


    "What!?"


    "It is not possible to dodge it in all directions, degozaru. This is my original ninjutsu"


    Ninpo! The Art of Capturing and Exploding!


    "It''s not ninjutsuwait! What is that!?"


    The wire tightens and the bombs attached to the wire hit each other at a certain point. The next moment, the dark ninja had a chain reaction explosion of arge number of bombs attached to him.


    "I admit my mistake and start over, degozaru"


    "I''m sorry to be so cool about it, but he''s gone, so he can''t hear you"


    "Moreover, Hokage didn''t do anything"


    "No No!? I stopped him and made many bombs, degozaru! Hmm? What''s wrong? Mizukage?"


    Mizukage was holding the lower half of his body.


    "No...the first ce it exploded was...that...the wrong ce to hit..."


    Mizukage pointed out and everyone fell silent.


    "We, Well...it''s a punishment for something he did wrong, degozaru!"


    "I didn''t aim for it, so it''s safe, right?"


    Hokage and the others tried their best to repeat their excuses in the empty forest.


    And the dark summoners, defeated by Takuto and Ix, fled the colosseum and were being chased.


    "There''s a wanted criminal!"


    "He''s escaping outside! Don''t let him get away!"


    "Haahaa...damn it! That guy! I''ll never forgive you!"


    "Yes! I''ll definitely take Lily-chan away from him!"


    While saying these things, they went outside the Reich Empire. But there was a yer waiting for them outside.


    Legion summon!!


    It was the summoners who were waiting for and chasing after the dark summoner brothers. They summoned Legion in front and behind them, preventing the dark summoners from escaping.


    The summoners deliberately led them outside because if they didn''t, they wouldn''t be able to summon their summoned beasts that had been sacrificed to them.


    ""Na...""


    "You are finished here"


    "Know what these summoned beasts have suffered"


    At Rook and Aroma''smand, the summoned beasts attacked the dark summoners at once.


    "Damn you!"


    The dark summoner brothers tried to flee with return, but were shot by Rook''s goblin archer and lost their way.


    ""Uwaaaaaaa!?""


    There was nothing they could do when they were attacked by hundreds of summoned beasts from the front and back. They were attacked by the summoned beasts that they had fooled around with and lost their vitality. But their real hell was not over yet.


    After losing their vitality, they found themselves in a dark room. This was the home they had been using. Normally, they would return to reality after the game was over, so when they wondered why, they were approached by a voice.


    "Oh, dear. You guys lost, too. What a shame"


    Druj Nasu was right in front of them.


    "...You saved us?"


    "Thank you~"


    Druj Nasu smiled at the dark summoners.


    "Saved? You didn''t forget the contract you made with me, did you? Instead of raising the power of darkness, if you lose, I should get your power?"


    "Did you bother to prepare such a production for that...fine. I''m not going to y this game anymore anyway"


    "Yeah. Then, let''s get started"


    When Druj Nasu snapped her fingers, the dark summoners felt intense pain.


    "W, What the hell..."


    "Hey. What are you doing?"


    "You think you can just make a deal with a demon and lose your powers? That''s pretty naive"


    The dark summoner brothers checked their vitality and found that it had not decreased.


    "He. You haven''t lost any vitality, have you?"


    "Yeah, right? You guys liked to make them suffer rather than let them die easily, didn''t you? So I''ve decided to copy you"


    ""Na...""


    The dark summoner brothers were speechless. It was true that they had been bullying the summoned beasts to relieve their stress.


    "I''m grateful to you. Your twisted viciousness is a wonderful thing. But there''s something you don''t know yet. I want you to tell me what would happen if you were on the other side"


    ""Hii!?""


    They were toyed with by Druj Nasu and returned to death, deprived of the power of the dark job and everything they had gained in the game so far.


    "Huhu. Humans are really wonderful. Don''t you think so, too?"


    A twisted clown appears out of the darkness.


    "I won''t deny it. Instead, it''s your fault that the other demon kings move"


    "Yeah...it''s tough. The job of managing the demon kings''''


    "If you think so, don''t increase my work. I''m sure I told you that"


    The clown disappeared after saying that.


    In this way, all the dark-fallen jobs that received Despena will be stopped.


    It would be the biggest taboo to get involved with Takuto among the yers who still have a dark job.


    Unaware that this was happening, I went to the waiting room to have Mirai heal my eyes and then returned to Liebling. There, Lily and the others hugged me and asked me a lot of questions, but they were all relieved when I told them I had won.


    "Master and I are the strongest. There''s no way we can lose"


    Muu!


    While Lily and the others were arguing who is the strongest duo, everyone who had finished cleaning up came back. I talk to Rook.


    "Thank you for your hard work. It looks like it went well"


    "Yes. Thanks to Takuto-san. Once again, thank you very much. What can I do to thank you?


    No need. This is a duel between me and those guys. Rook didn''t ask me to do this.


    Rook and the others brought it up, but it was a duel I epted of my own free will. I didn''t want to be paid for it. Still everyone went to thank you, but I ignored it and talked to Aroma.


    "I''m sorry...I had to beat it"


    "It''s okay. Just the fact that it came back to me like this is enough for me"


    "I see. Is it back to Archangel?"


    "No. It didn''t go back. There may be a way to fix it, but I''m going to grow it as it is''''


    Seriously...why is that? I asked and Aroma answered.


    "I want to make sure I don''t forget what happened and if Takuto-san is raising an Archangel, I want to go a different route. Besides, it was able to go toe-to-toe with Ix-san"


    Indeed, the Fallen Angel was strong. It doesn''t have the firepower of the Archangel''s heavenly strike, but it has fewer gaps in itsbat and I think it was more specialized inbat than the Archangel.


    "I see. Then maybe one day our angels will fight each other"


    "I''ll definitely not lose then"


    Aroma''s eyes were straight and dazzling to me. Afterwards, we all celebrated our victory with a party and logged out. I fell asleep, relieved that I didn''t have to retire from the game.
