1 vs 6

"You look quite beaten up Captain Mereoleona. Let me tag in while you recover," said Sekke as he loosened the appendages around Mimosa letting her free.

"Heh, I don't need a kid like you butting in my fights. Stand aside while I deal with them," said Mereoleona who looked quite battered up from her fight against the 5 elves.

"Now now, don't be shy. Let the dark lord cover for you. Besides I did bring one more here so let me take responsibility," said Sekke as he looked at Anna who was healing her wounds.

"Like hell, that's gonna happen, if anything you just balanced the fight a bit for them by bringing in their ally," said Mereoleona as she looked at the 6 elves.

Sekke sighed and then looked at the 6 elves who were now looking at them with anger.

He then walked towards Mereoleona and said, "Heal up, and then we will beat the shit out of them sooner and then get done with the mission. There might be more of them who turned into elves back in the kingdom."

This made Mereoleona serious as she didn't think of this possibility. She looked at the six elves with a frown and then said, "Try not to die before I step back in."

Sekke smirked and said, "Heh, just hope that they are capable enough to last long enough for you to rejoin the battle. Mimosa, start fixing her up."

Mimosa nodded and then got behind Mereoleona and started healing her.

"As for you....well....try not to die, we need those bodies after all," said Sekke as black flames gathered around his fists.

"Heh, when even a royal couldn't deal with us? How are you gonna survive when there is one more person on our side." said the elf that took over Puli.

Sekke just smiled at the elf as he breathed in some air.

"Be wary of him. That man is not simple," said Anna who was finally done healing herself. She still felt pain in her jaw but decided to join the fight.

"Haha, nice joke Anna. Everyone let's show this human what us elves are capable of." said elf Rill.

[Wing Magic: Angel Flapping]

[Picture Magic: Subterranean Ginat's Iron Arm]

[Snow Magic: Glacial Shard Strike]

[Sandstone Magic: Rock Storm]

[Copy Magic: Light Sword of Judgement]

[Flame Magic: Raging Flare]

All the elves fired their attacks at Sekke as he just continued to suck in the air.

After breathing in till his limit Sekke faced the incoming attack and blew hard.

Black flames came out of his mouth wide enough to cover all the incoming attacks.

All the attacks collided with the black flames only to be destroyed immediately without any resistance at all. Even the iron and sandstone magic were easily destroyed by the black flames.

'...Damn, I realized again why I hold back these flames.' thought Sekke.

"Don't hold back much this time my other half. It's 6 vs 1 and all of them are pretty powerful," said Vritra.

'Don't worry, I know.' replied Sekke as he felt the change in ki behind him.

Rhya who saw their attacks being destroyed easily moved away to dodge the black flames. He then opened a portal behind Sekke and take him off guard.

[Copy Magic: Dark Cloa-]

Before Rhya could complete the spell a dark flaming fist came in front of him punching him in the face and sending him back through the portal.

Rhya who was sent away with a punch to the face soon crashed into a wall as blood spilled out of his mouth.

"That's for touching my Extase-chan," said Sekke as he looked at Rhya but soon turned to his right as his mana detection warned him about the incoming attack.

[Painting Magic: Phantom Dragon Vouivre's Shout]

A highly powerful and concentrated mana beam attack was launched by elf-possessed Rill who had a Dragon-like creature with a human face and boobs.

"So you are a man of culture as well huh....but why boobs on a creature like that?" asked Sekke as he saw the huge boobs that Rill painted on his creation.

Pointing his hand forward, Sekke fired the absorption line which took the shape of a spiral, and started absorbing the mana out of the mana beam.

Seeing that his attack was not reaching Sekke, elf Rill increased the output as the size of the mana beam increased.

Sekke noticed that and increased the size of the spiral and continued absorbing the mana out of the attack.

The other elves saw their friend having a hard time against Sekke and decided to lend a hand as well and attacked him from different directions.

Sekke felt the change in ki and shot his other absorption line toward the boob dragon.

Will who saw that jumped away thinking that it was coming for him and smirked as he saw the human's attack missing.

But the absorption lime continued moving and struck the boob dragon's shadow.

Shadows erupted around the creature as a dark cube appeared around it. A moment later shadow blades appeared on the sides of the cube that pierced the creature from all sides destroying it in a moment.

Sekke retracted both absorption lines as powerful spells came from all sides.

'Flames from the left, Ice from the right, and feathers from my back, alright.' thought Sekke as turned around and fired absorption lines to his left and right.

The flames and ice started getting absorbed by the lines as black flames gathered in his mouth.

Firing the black flames at the incoming feathers, Sekke easily burned through them and hit the elf Puli with the flames.

"AHHH!!!" screamed Puli in pain as the flames burned her.

Seeing their comrade in pain elf Anna and elf Fragil stopped attacking him and went to save Puli.

Sekke retracted his absorption lines as he felt two people coming toward him.

[Sandstone Magic: Heavy Rock Smash]

[Copy Magic: Bear Claw]

Elf Rubin and Rhya came to attack him in unison.

Seeing them approaching the shadow around him darkened and appeared around his hand and black flames came out of his hands.

The two attacks hit Sekke as he caught both their fists with his hands which were covered in dragon scales and had shadows and black flames wrapped around them.

Clenching his hands Sekke easily destroyed their spells and then crushed their hands by gripping them hard.

He then grabbed both the elves and spun them around him before throwing them away.

He then raised both his hands as a black flame orb appeared above them.

A huge black fireball appeared over Sekke's hand as he launched it toward the group of elves that got caught in it and started to burn inside it.

Sekke stared at the black flames for a while thinking if he should stop before the elves turn to cinders.

But before he could cancel his flames a portal appeared quite a bit away from them and the six elves fell out of it.

"Got to say, you managed to get out even after the last attack. You are good Rhya," said Sekke as he snapped his fingers and canceled the black flames.

"Shut up human! Don't get cocky just because you were able to deal with us for a while! We will kill you!!" yelled led Rill as he and the others cast healing magic on themselves.

Sekke sighed and then deactivated and took a deep breath.

"What happened? Already out of juice?" asked Anna with a smirk as she summoned Ignis.

Sekke smiled and said, "Nope, but someone is all patched up. So you all better be ready to see hell break out on you all."

"Hah, you said it!! Be prepared to die!" said Mereoleona as flaming mana came out of her as she stood near Sekke while Mimosa stood behind the two of them.

"Latch on Mimosa," said Sekke as snake-like appendages appeared around him and wrapped around Mimosa.

"Oi Sekke! Show me your mana zone," said Mereoleona as she looked at the blond kid beside her.

Sekke raised his brow and looked at the Vermillion-haired lady beside him.

"But that would be just game over for these weaklings."

"Hm? Is it that strong?"

"Oh, it's OP. Most people won't even stand a chance against my mana zone."

"Ho~ you are making me excited now. Say, would you like to test it against my mana zone?" asked Mereoleona with a predatory smile on her face.

"Sure, but we are in the middle of a mission right now, let's not waste time....on that note. Using my mana zone is a viable option. Alright, I'm gonna end it then." said Sekke as he looked back at the elves who were glaring at them while healing.

They heard Sekke call them weaklings and how his mana zone will just finish them. They were thoroughly pissed at the human who mocked them to that extent and decided to finish him with a combined attack.

"Human!! Deal with the combined strength of us elves!!!" yelled all six elves as they combined their magic power into one single attack.

[Compound Magic: Elemental Quintet]

A giant mass of energy gathered in front of the elves as they continued pouring their mana into it.

Asta and Zora soon came and saw the scene that was happening and rushed toward their friends.

"Oi! Sekke! When did you get here?!" asked Asta as he came running with his demon slayer sword.

"Oh Asta, I came here a while ago. Captain was quite beaten up so I decided to sub in. By the way, stand back and let me deal with it," said Sekke as he raised his hand to stop Asta.

Asta and Zora stopped, they had a plan of their own but decided to let Sekke do what he wanted since he looked quite confident with his plan.

Sekke smiled seeing the fellow black bulls halt and then focused back on the elves who were almost done with their spell.

Taking in a deep breath Sekke closed his eyes and concentrated to feel the mana around him.

Soon his eyes opened as a glow appeared in his eyes.

'So, that's how it feels using a mana zone. It's amazing!!' thought Sekke. This was the first time that he was feeling his own mana zone without being on the verge of collapsing.

The elves who felt the mana around them widened their eyes in shock. The sheer amount of mana around them was making their attack shake and the pressure made by that mana was forcing them to kneel.

'It's just like Licht's...The mana loves this human way too much, just like Licht.' thought Rhya.

But all the elves persevered and fired their combination attack at the humans.

"TAKE THIS AND DIE!!!" yelled the elves simultaneously.

Seeke just smirked as he raised his hand forward.

"This fight is already over," said Sekke as he clenched his fist.

Just when he did that, the combined attack of the elves started to disintegrate into raw mana and started dispensing out.

[Mana Zone: Bronze Age]

The whole surrounding turned into bronze as the combined enemy spell also started to turn into bronze and break down.

The attack continued to move toward Sekke and his group but by the time it reached them the spell got so small that the impact didn't even make Sekke tickle.

"I-I-Impossible, our combined power..."

"Just like that...."

"To a mere human..."

Sekke who heard their words shook his head and said, "Don't think bad about yourself, you were against the dark lord after all. Now then it's my turn to attack."

Sekke pointed his hand at the elves and opened his hand once again.

Mana gathered around the elves making them panic as their grimoires started flipping.

But before they could even gather mana their bodies started turning into bronze and a moment later 6 unmoving elvish bronze statues appeared.

Sekke sighed and cancel his mana zone before he turned towards Mereoleona.

"So, what do you think of it? Impressed?" asked Sekke.

"Heh, it was alright," said Mereoleona with a smirk on her face.

"Huh, alright? I dare you to take that back! It wasn't anything below awesome!" complained Sekke.

"Hmph, I can easily beat your mana zone. So it looked alright to me," said Mereoleona.

"Is that so? Wanna have a go then. I can say you will be a pretty beautiful bronze statue."

"You wanna have a go? Alright, come at me! I will punch that manly face of yours and make it, even more, manlier with a scar."

The two continued to glare at each other and were now standing close to each other with their foreheads touching and pushing each other away.

Their mana started to come out as they continued to bicker, but all of a sudden a smack hit Sekke's head making him stop.

"Ow! What the hell Secre?!"

Secre just pointed at the elves, making him realize that they were still on a mission.

"Oh, sorry about that. Alright, let's get going to the center room. We need to deal with the boss as well." said Sekke making others serious and nod at his words.
