Black Iron Magician

Chapter 485: The Eight Sparring of Death



The underground training facility of Nell’s mansion had been very busy for the past several days. Whether it was in terms of the number of people, the noise, or the chaos, it was crowded.

「Ah, she’s back.」

「Ugh, I’m dying. No, I’m dead….」

「Good work, Touko-chan. I’ll leave the special energy drink here for you.」

「Yeah, thanks…. I will drink it little by little…. Actually, help me drink it, Chinatsu….」

「Good grief, it can’t be helped then. Here, I will lend you my lap, so put your head here.」

「Then, I’m next! Everyone, let’s give it our all!」

Touko falls to the ground drenched in sweat, Chinatsu takes care of her, and Haruna makes a cheerful greeting. It seems that the three of them are taking turns doing something. Haruna’s turn is coming, and she is facing the seven Irygal Sisters and Nell.

「First opponent, the seventh daughter Lilyvia. I’m going to do some close combat, including pinning techniques, and also distraction by changing my body, and if I feel like it, I’ll use some magic as well. Please become a professional in close combat at this time. But I’m too sleepy~, too lazy~, too unmotivated~, and there’s no Goshujin-sama~」

「Second opponent, the sixth daughter Eliza-chan. I’m going to amputate you aggressively, kyahahaha! You can’t die, but the pain is real! It might be a good idea to get used to the intense pain at this time. Otherwise, you’ll die of shock, kyahahaha! I won’t let you, though!」

「Third opponent, the fifth daughter Riara――ugh, I drank a little too much…. Ah, as for me, there’s no need to explain~. Let’s have a serious fight where you will lose immediately if you touch my blood or being touched by it~. But, spare me from Honor Student-chan’s ability!」

「Fourth opponent, the fourth daughter Katarina~. Don’t look away from lewdness~. I mean, you’re at the age where you can use it as a weapon. You’re ripe enough for a human, so let’s get used to it. For a starter, I will teach you the attacking technique on bed―― eh, you don’t need it?」

「Fifth opponent, the third daughter Odile…. Gobu gobu, goobu gobbu, gobubuu gobu gobu. Gobunese could be used during the spar, and it should be used as the official language of the world from now on. I’ll have you use your brains and thoroughly engage in one-on-many combat with my lovely goblin dolls.」

「Sixth opponent, the second daughter Veronica. I usually would use my blood to make the target stiffen, but this time is special, so I would put poison that causes various abnormal conditions into the whip. Please learn the technique to immediately grasp the abnormal condition that you have suffered and treat them accurately. With guts.」

「Seventh opponent, the eldest daughter Ursula. Strength is not only about the physical body. True strength is something that only makes sense when a strong spirit resides in a strong body. Try to control your bottomless desires, which can be called the seven deadly sins, with this training. Negative emotions are sometimes more powerful than positive ones.」

「And the final opponent will be me, Nell. What you will do with me is quite simple. Attack me with the strongest technique you can use at the moment. I will receive it and launch a counterattack with power and killing intent that’s one step above it. Anything is fine as long as you don’t die, so do something about it. That’s all!」

「Ossu! I will do my best!」

What Haruna will do now is a series of sparring against the Irygal Sisters and Nell. She will do the sparring with different contents without a break, and end it when she manages to deal with Nell’s counterattack. Haruna, Chinatsu, Touko, and Haruna again, they are doing it in turn. The sparring is so intense that fighting Aralkar’s clone isn’t even counted as a warm-up. After finishing the sparring, it’s inevitable for them to end up in a state like Touko. Ever since Deris went on a business trip, the three have been doing this kind of training.

「T-Thank you… very much…!」

Haruna, who is always overly energetic, is exhausted like this after finishing her training. Then, she returns to Chinatsu’s place and falls down.

「Okay, the pace per round is getting faster than it was at the beginning. It’s getting harder to catch your strongest attack with just one hand, and it means that you’re really getting stronger! Next is Chinatsu!」

「Hey, Nell~. We’ve been doing this continuously since last night. Just let me sleep already! Lack of sleep is bad for my skin!」

「I hate to say this, but I agree with Lily. I’m also very sleepy~」

「I want to take a break and snack~. I’m fine with Pony-chan’s blood~」

「I want to learn about the maid’s work with Gobuo-san…. But first, I want to take a bath and cleanse myself….」

「What are you talking about, you just had a nap time eight hours ago, right? We don’t have enough time, so I won’t accept anything other than a restroom break. Besides, you guys take a break when it’s not your turn!」

「Waaaah, I don’t want this! It’s child abuse! You demon!」

「I see, this training, which is nothing but spartan even for the vampires, has become their strength. I’m angry at myself for being so lenient until yesterday…!」

「As expected of Ursula-oneesama, you’re strict even to yourself…!」

Well, this is how it has been for days. Nell has been doing whatever she wants with the training contents when Deris, the stopper, is absent. However, it’s also very effective.

「Oh, so they are here. He~y, I’m back!」

Just as the Irygal Sisters began their protest, the door to the underground training ground opened and Deris appeared from there.

「Oh, Deris. You came back quite early――」

「――Goshujin-sama, I’ve been waiting for yough…!」

「Lily, I’ve good news for you. If you want to sleep, you can sleep as much as you want now. I’ll allow you.」

Lilyvia was about to jump out when Deris returned from his business trip. However, Nell grabbed her by the neck and slammed her to the floor. Lilyvia’s head, which collided with the floor from the face, was splendidly buried under the floor.

「Uwaah, even I don’t want that…」

「I hope this will make her a little smarter.」

「Kyahahaha! It looks hurt! I’m sure it hurts so much!」

Unfortunately, the sisters didn’t seem to be worried at all. Instead, Touko, who has recovered her stamina, retrieves her master from the floor.

「Heave-ho…! Hey, Lily-shishō, are you alive?」

「…… My neck broke for a moment, but it healed when I passed out.」

「The 『Pleasant Sleep』 skill is really useful, huh? Still, it’s bad to jump in before Nell-neesan. You knew this was going to happen, right?」

「F-Fufu…. Touko-chan is still a beginner in love…. If there’s a chance, a maiden in love should reach for it at any cost…!」

「If you had ever succeeded, your words would be more convincing.」

Even though it was a serious injury, Lilyvia seemed to be fine. After glancing at Lilyvia, Nell welcomed Deris.

Cough. Welcome back. You came back pretty early, huh? Did everything go well?」

「It did, at least for everything I’ve planned. But there was a little problem. I will tell the girls―― wait, the one lying down there, is that Haru?」

「Yes, we were training until a while ago. Deris entrusted her to me, so I thought that I shouldn’t give her poor guidance and attacked her until she reached her limit!」

「…… She’s alive, right?」

「How rude, she’s barely alive!」

Nell, who wanted to impress Deris, may have been a little too unreasonable.
