My Entire Class Has Been Reincarnated – I Became the Weakest Skeleton! Chapter 20.2

～ Part 2 ～

“Inugami! Zeku!”

When Ryuzaki group rushed there, the wolf with silver fur coat and the 2 meters tall ogre were being forced into a hard fight against an opponent with human figure. Zeku noticed Ryuzaki group coming and took some distance from the opponent, but Inugami did not stop the threat to the human figure and barely spared them a single glance. Kogane was lying on the floor. His head was bleeding but it seemed that he was still alive.
He knew that Inugami had the ability of beast transformation, but it was unusual for her, a my pace delinquent girl to expose this much brutality and hostility toward someone. Not only Ryuzaki, other students were also feeling doubtful, but first they needed to worried about the monster threat in front of them.

Black armor and dark skin. With red wings growing on his back. Although he was much closer to human than themselves, wearing an outfit that exuded both reason and intellect, it was clear that he was hostile and harmful based on his behavior.
The red winged devil recognized the appearance of Ryuzaki group, and a smile formed on his lips. Taking advantage of the momentary gap, Inugami jumped at him, but he received her biting jaws with his right gauntlet.

“Hou, that’s amazing.”

When the red winged devil spoke some understandable words, a commotion ran through the classmates.

“Dragonewt … succubus? All are excellent races.”

Inugami who was biting his right arm was forcibly shaken off. She was thrown to the wall, but adjusting her posture midair she landed firmly on her four feet.

“Inugami-san, don’t be rash…!”

Sakuma ran off and hugged her body. Looking closely, some darkened red stains were visible in someplace on her silver fur.
Inugami raised a low growl toward the red winged devil, baring her fangs. The devil who was being glared at snorted.

“Although it seems that there are unexpectedly a few misses mixed in, it seems to be mostly hits.” [Notes]
“What are you talking about…?”

Ryuzaki took 1 step, 2 steps forward. In place of Sakuma who was a magical type with weak body and Inugami who was riddled with injuries, he advanced to a place where he could attack. Following him, Kagoi the gargoyle and Okumura the orc who boasted of their superior physical strength came out in front.

“Have you not heard? The reason why you have come to this side in such forms…”
“What…”
“Oh well. I have some business in the back. Let me pass through.”

The red winged devil tried to push Ryuzaki away. He grabbed that arm and restrained it.

This man clearly knew the «circumstances» of Ryuzaki and the others’ 2nd year class 4. Probably more than any of the students on this side. If they didn’t go against him, he might take a friendly attitude. However, even more than that, a strong sense of crisis had sprouted in Ryuzaki’s consciousness as the class representative.
The devil in front of us is definitely an «enemy». My classmates were harmed and I will not consider the situation again.There is no knowing what would happen if he was to go through, so I can’t let that happen.

“Stop it. It is regrettable to kill rare races like you.”
“I don’t know what you’re saying, but I can’t let you pass through here…”
“Is that so?”

Right after the devil said so, a dull shock ran across Ryuzaki’s entire body. The impact transmitted to his brain, his vision turned red. He heard screams rai

sing in the surroundings. Somehow pulling back his fading consciousness, Ryuzaki realized that his body had been blown away in an instant and hit the wall. To Ryuzaki who was trying to stand up, the devil said 『Hou, sturdy』.
Unrest ran through the classmates. Hakuba (Unicorn) used recovery magic to heal Zeku who then went out and joined the fight again. When Zeku eyed Okumura, they nodded to each other and at the same time held down the devil. One beat later, Kagoi the gargoyle also followed suit.

Even with three people boasting of their strength, the man’s body didn’t even flinch. Sakuma started chanting magic, and next to her, Uozumi younger sister (Mermaid) also prepared for attack magic.

“《Evil Flare》!”
“《Maelstrom》!”

The devil thrust Zeku and Okumura’s gigantic bodies away, grabbed the neck of Kagoi who remained and raised him up high. Sakuma’s flame magic, Uozumi younger sister’s water magic hit the robust body of Kagoi one after another.

“Guu…!”
“Ka–Kagoi-kun…!”

The devil tossed Kagoi, who was barely breathing, and as it was closed in on other students at a stretch. Against the overwhelming difference in ability, the students collapsed. Students who tried to barely confront the enemy, such as Kensaki and Uozumi older brother (Gillman) also existed, but they were pushed by the flow of retreating students.
Sakuma covered for Uozumi younger sister who was escaping. The arm of the devil grabbed her white neck this time.

“Sakuma!”
“Satchan!”

The black gauntlet ∗giri giri∗ strongly tightened her neck. Ryuzaki stood up and went to tackle the devil’s back together with Okumura and the others but the devil still didn’t budge.
Ryuzaki ground his teeth. This strength is not the same as the Wight King lurking in the lower part of the dungeon.Somehow, if we do not consider the way to escape, our class may be annihilated.
However, where are we supposed to escape to? We don’t even know the enemy’s objectives?

While Ryuzaki had yet to gathered his thought, he heard another scream coming from the back of the passage where his other classmates had run to.
Wondering what happened this times, he raised his face, there was the figure of a black knight who flew straight through the rows of confused classmates.

“Full Cross…!”

It’s Kyousuke and the others. Ryuzaki gave a little relieved breath.

“”OOOOORYAAAAA—————!!””

While Kyousuke and Rin’s breaths were perfectly synchronized, the black night (Full Cross) raised his right fist. With the weight of the armor multiplied by the accelerating force of the flaming wings, he unleashed a single blow (dynamic entry) to the red winged devil. The devil turned his free hand to take the fist but the unleashed fish could not be stopped with just one hand.
Indeed, for the first time, the fist strongly beat down the devil’s cheek. Sakuma’s body was released and fell with a thud on the floor. The black knight added a pursuit kick to the slightly faltering devil and landed on the floor.

“Th–that guy…!”
“The rumored black knight…!?”
“Isn’t it an enemy…?”

The students rustled. 『It’s a voice that I’ve heard somewhere before』words like that were popping up here and there.

Ryuzaki exchanged looks with Okumura and the others. They also nodded, Okumura looked after Sakuma, Zeku took Kagoi and moved to the back. Ryuzaki headed toward Kogane who had fallen in a place some distance away.
The red winged devil wiped blood off his mouth before the unidentified black knight who landed in front of him.

“I see. So some of you have noticed your abilities and advanced to Phase 2.”
“……”

The black knight did not answer. Possibly, Kyousuke and his group were having a telepathic conversation among themselves.

“It is regrettable to destroy those who have bloomed so far…. It’s fine. I will be your opponent.”

Despite saying so, the red winged devil didn’t take any stance. He just stepped forward in a steady manner.
On the other hand, the black knight Full Cross took a Jeet Kune Do stance and prepared to intercept the devil.

The two people’s eyes flashed and fists of lightning speed crossed.
