Veins popped out on his fair forehead.

"Sparring, right? You two guys wait for me tomorrow!"

Zi Yuanpi murmured to himself with a smile, then turned around and left.

She still needs to find Lord Rimuru, otherwise the "soup" in Fort Gang will be cold.

at the same time.

Under a big tree on the side of a remote street somewhere, two figures suddenly appeared out of thin air and let out a long breath at the same time.

Raising his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, Benimaru patted Gafan's shoulder gratefully.

"Mr. Gafan, there is no way I can repay you for saving my life."

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm just trying to save myself."

Gafan, who also wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, had a look of lingering fear on his face. He didn't want to touch Shion's cooking without Rimuru accompanying him.

After all, no matter what, he felt that his stomach was within the scope of normal people.

However, after the sudden crisis was resolved, Gafan glanced at Hong Wan beside him, thought about it, and sighed helplessly.

"Benimaru, is there a suitable place for sparring? Give me a general direction and I'll teleport you there directly."

These words made Benimaru raise his eyebrows in surprise.

"Hey, Mr. Gafan, weren't you just about to refuse my request for sparring? Why did you suddenly agree again?"

"Because even though I'm just looking for an excuse to avoid Shion, since it's something I've promised, I have to do it well."

Gafan looked listless and replied: "Also, just call me Gafan, no need to add sir."

"Well, that's it..."

After Benimaru pondered for a moment, he couldn't help but smile a little.

Even if it's just a verbal excuse, do you mean what you say?

This is a good point, as expected of someone Rimuru-sama approves of.

"Then, Gafan, I won't be polite."

Chapter 62: Particle motion is at rest

"This is the training ground under the leadership of Shiro. Whether it is the Ghost Wolf Soldiers or others who want to practice their skills, they will come here to receive Shiro's guidance, including Lord Rimuru."

Somewhere away from the commercial street, near the junction of the forest and the edge of the town, in a spacious open space, Benimaru introduced it to Gafan who was looking around here.

"Because the banquet is about to start, it's relatively deserted here now. Normally it's very lively, but it's better to say it's a little too lively."

He slowly pulled out the sword from his waist, and the flames belonging to the Ghost King began to cling to it and spread. Benimaru glanced in a certain direction.

There was a figure wearing a white robe and a simple long knife on his waist, standing quietly in the shadow of the grove in the distance, stroking his white beard with his hand, looking here with interest.

"Although Lao Bai is usually very strict, for things like banquets, he is still willing to let everyone relax and participate. According to him, it is a balance between work and rest."

The opening remarks before the battle were almost finished. Benimaru tilted the sword in his hand and pointed it at the ground. The crimson flames on it began to turn dark. The face that had previously had a bold smile now became serious and informal.

"Then, Gafan, let's just start the competition. Before we start, I would like to ask one last question, are you afraid of fire?"

Hearing this question, Gafan withdrew his gaze from a boulder not far away that was full of knife marks. He also looked at the other party. After thinking about it, he recalled the time when he used a lighter to bake his fingers, and then replied with an uncertain tone. road.

"You shouldn't be afraid of ordinary fire, right?"

"Oh, 'normal' fire?"

Benimaru chuckled, and then...

Without hesitation, he waved his hand and threw out a pitch-black fireball that was condensed to the extreme, and shot it almost instantly in front of the stunned Gafan, where it stopped for a moment——

Rapid expansion!

"Boom boom boom!!!"

The jet-black flames, which were enough to burn the sharp steel blade into iron juice in the blink of an eye, instantly engulfed Gafan's figure, expanded and exploded to form a perfect semicircle, and began to expand in all directions.

Throwing this move into the enemy's army is enough to burn soldiers within a mile radius to ashes at once, and the killing range is extremely wide.

But this time, as soon as it spread, it stopped immediately, and then compressed the scope inward, thereby further greatly increasing the power.

"Black Flame Hell"

Among the methods Benimaru currently possesses, it is the most lethal move.

Benimaru had only used this method of condensing the burning range against the pig-headed Emperor Kroot and Demon King Milim before, but unfortunately the results were unsatisfactory.

Facing the pig-headed emperor who has evolved into a demon king species, this move cannot really injure the opponent. Facing the demon king Milim, it cannot cause even a little burn.

And this time...

"Nitrogen barrier, air insulation."

Standing in the center of the huge pitch-black fireball, Gafan looked through the invisible barrier in front of him with fear at the black flames that were trying to corrode and spread, and felt the speed at which the energy stored in the cells of his body was being consumed.

"This is really not polite at all... I seem to be a little short of oxygen now."

Gafan muttered wordlessly, and also glanced at the cluster of black inflammation on his cheek that was burning his skin.

He used Yan Ling a little late, and his face was slightly burned. The pain was transmitted to the brain through the pain nerves, causing the corners of his eyes to twitch subconsciously a few times, but...

Theoretically, the black inflammation that should have spread all over the body began to shrink rapidly after swaying for a few times, and then disappeared and extinguished, turning into a wisp of white smoke, leaving only an inconspicuous mark on the skin.

"Can this also be regarded as external energy absorbed into the body? However, the absorption speed seems to be much slower than burning fingers with a lighter. It will also cause a certain degree of burns, and the upper limit is temporarily unknown."

Gafan analyzed the situation and then suddenly said something.

"The molecules are firmly fixed."

"Qiang——"

The next moment, a sharp sword wrapped in pitch-black flames struck directly at the invisible barrier, causing a crack in it.

so hard!

Benimaru exclaimed in his heart, then he grasped the handle of the knife with slightly numb hands, and quickly turned around in a spiral. At the same time, he controlled and condensed the remaining black flames from the "Black Flame Prison" that had begun to dissipate onto the blade. , finally relying on the strength of his waist, he slashed out with all his strength again.

"boom--"

This time, the nitrogen barrier was chopped cleanly and directly, but the long knife he swung did not cut through the flesh, but cut off a stone that appeared out of thin air, and was then burned by the black flames.

"Positions are swapped, nerve reflex speed is increased, and dynamic vision is enhanced."

Gafan, who appeared behind Benimaru at some point, stretched out his hand and pressed down slightly.

"Local gravity maximization increases."

A shallow pit with a radius of ten meters suddenly appeared on the dusty ground. Benimaru, who felt his body became a lot heavier, swung the knife behind him without hesitation.

The black flame that was originally condensed and wrapped around the blade directly expanded into a large flame, and then turned into a huge palm, grabbing Gafan in the distance from the air.

"Fire manipulation."

Gafan, who had a drop of cold sweat on his forehead, tried to control this obviously unusual flame for the first time, and then swept it back with unfamiliar control, carrying a high temperature of thousands of degrees and about to explode.

But the next moment, it stagnated in mid-air and then dissipated.

Benimaru, who put down his palm, temporarily retracted his black flames with "Heat Control", frowned, then lowered his body slightly, exerted force on his legs and feet, and easily rushed out of the area covered by gravity, arriving at Gafan in the blink of an eye. in front of him.

"Sensory confusion."

The originally flawless posture suddenly became sluggish, and the speed of the tachi slashed out also slowed down a lot.

Weird magic.

Benimaru, whose vision was slightly dazed, secretly thought to himself, and then chose to slash out the sword. At the same time, black flames that burned everything erupted from his body, affecting an area with a radius of twenty meters.

"so close."

Gafan, who had been forcibly moved away from his place through space, stood on the boulder he was looking at before, looking at the astonishing fire in the distance with a bit of speechlessness.

It's just a discussion, why are you so serious?

He was almost cut by the knife, but he was still affected by the black flames.

Gafan looked down at the flames ignited on the sleeves of his new clothes, with a look of disdain on his face.

This clothes was made by Zhu Lai with kind heart, so you can't ruin it casually.

"Fire control, recovery."

The charred clothing became intact, and the burning flame was transferred to Gafan's hands.

The flames that should have been enough to instantly incinerate the human body to ashes were unable to cause obvious burns even without the nitrogen barrier and air insulation layer.

"It's so hot, but...it doesn't seem to be a big problem?"

He tightened his grip and directly extinguished the cluster of black flames. Before the remaining flames dissipated in the air, they were automatically captured and devoured by the energy-absorbing cells in advance, and turned into harmless energy for storage.

"Can't you really hurt me without extensive skin-to-skin contact?"

Gafan, who had a little understanding of the efficiency of his energy-absorbing cells in absorbing external energy, looked at the area in the distance where the flames had dissipated, and Hong Wan who was holding a knife and was about to charge again.

At this time, Gafan had roughly figured out the opponent's strength.

It feels much stronger than the Rat King that he was chasing after him at the beginning, but because the black fire he is best at is immune to a certain extent by his own energy-absorbing cells, and it is automatically used as a source of mana recovery, it is slightly easier to deal with.

And when he faced the Rat King, he couldn't even delay him for two minutes. Now when he faced Benimaru, who was even stronger than the Rat King, it was...

"I've become stronger."

The sword was swung empty again.

"The light is refracted, the breath is concealed, and the sound of footsteps is eliminated."

Gafan's figure completely disappeared from Benimaru's eyes, and even his breath could not be captured completely. This made Benimaru frown again while standing on the boulder.

"There is no magic fluctuation, and it doesn't seem to be the effect of inherent skills. I can't even perceive the existence of magic at all. It's strange...forget it, it's not a big problem."

Benimaru stood in a commanding position, directly relying on "Heat Source Sense" to lock the opponent's position, then swung his sword and once again released the black flames that swept away like a wave, completely covering the area.

There were waves of fire all over the spacious venue, but an invisible semicircle suddenly appeared in the center, blocking the licking of the tongues of fire.

"You can find me here, how do you do it?"

Gafan looked at Benimaru who instantly determined his position and once again pounced on him at an astonishing speed that almost surpassed the capture of his temporarily enhanced dynamic vision. Gafan showed an expression that said he was in trouble.

After all, he actually doesn't like fighting.

By the way, red pills don’t seem to be able to fly, right?

"Gravity is upside down."

The figure that was originally charging forward suddenly left the ground uncontrollably and flew high into the sky, but Benimaru's calm eyes did not show the slightest fluctuation.

"I have roughly figured out the limitations of your strange method. Just use magic element to accelerate and offset it...Gafan, be careful."

The terrifying magic element and aura belonging to the ghost suddenly exploded, and the body that was rising immediately stopped, and then a ball of flames exploded on the back very simply, making Benimaru, who started to fall, even faster.

At the same time, the black flames burning on the ground nearby also rotated and gathered, forming a huge pillar of fire that surrounded the invisible semicircle in the center.

"Stagnation."

The figure covered in flames fell down for a moment, and then rushed down faster with the push of the flames.

"Fire control."

The astonishingly powerful fire pillar swayed a few times, but finally stabilized its form.

"The molecules are firmly fixed."

The demon's flame-wrapped blade instantly stopped its momentum, but the next moment he began to slash rapidly without hesitation, instantly cutting the nitrogen barrier into invisible fragments that filled the sky.

"You can only maintain this kind of ultra-high-intensity defense for about one second, right? I won't give you a chance to release it again!"

The huge pillar of fire began to shrink rapidly inward, the scorching black flames burned the air, and the Ghost King was about to face him as he swung his sword with astonishing power.

It seems as if the opponent will be cut in two in the next moment.

In the distant woods, an old ghost man with white hair nodded slightly.

"It's time to decide the winner. Benimaru has almost stopped wielding his sword. The young man named Gafan is still a little bit behind..."

Suddenly, something happened on the field.

It was as if someone had pressed the pause button on the flow of time.
