I'm Actually Not Overpowered!

>VWOOOSHHH<

In what would seem like a second to a normal person, the first demon to show up was a familiar face.

'Oh, long time no see… Hogun!'

The lion-faced Demon roared as he made to rip me apart with his claws. His appearance was far larger than I remembered, having a bulky stature and gleaming metal-like skin.

'A transformation Skill, maybe? Nice enhancements…'

I, of course, evaded his attack with ease. However, the guy just wouldn't give up.

His body exploded in fiery dark-red energy and he lunged at me once more.

'You know… I didn't know you could fly, Hogun. Talk about surprising.'

Well, that was only to be expected. He was the only one I didn't really fight among all the Demon Generals in the first round.

>WHOOSH<

I evaded all his assaults, expertly moving my body in the air. I didn't even need to use [Five Seconds Rule] to avoid them, but I still resorted to it—just in case.

I saw everything. The move he was going to make next.

The abilities he would use—whether he would give a ferocious roar that stunned his opponent, or a devastating energy punch that would break his targets.

They were all useless if evaded, though.

'Ah, the second one finally approaches.'

Several dark bullets flew my way, and I instantly recognized the technique.

'Oh? You're here too, Adu.' I grinned, observing the Demon General who glared at me from his safe distance.

After seeing that his earlier Spatial Displacement didn't work, he was most likely cautious now—not like it mattered to me at all.

I had seven crystals around me, each with their important functions—though five served the same use.

'The constant use of [Domination] drains my MP like crazy, so most of these crystals are meant to serve as Mana batteries.'

As for the last two crystals; one was for generating a barrier to protect me, while the other destabilized the Magic Attacks pre-registered within it.

'Fortunately, I know Adu's abilities, so I can disable his annoying attacks. As for Hogun, I'll just use my barrier if it comes down to it…'

Of course, these countermeasures were only relevant in a situation where I wasn't capable of avoiding their hits, in the first place.

'After all… they're Level 100 Demons, while I'm in Level 185. No matter how high their base stats are, I'm still superior.'

I was trying to avoid using too many Skills since I didn't want to use up more MP than what I was already consuming, so even [Five Seconds Rule] wasn't constantly activated.

"Y-you… what kind of being are you? Are you… even human?" Hogun finally ceased his fruitless assault, huffing and puffing as he glared at me.

"Y-yeah! Why don't any of my attacks work on you? What's the meaning of this?!" Adu added sharply.

He was still far off from me, but I could hear his voice loud and clear. He sounded equally frustrated.

Welp, it wasn't like I couldn't relate to the frustration they were feeling. The situation was unfair—for them—after all.

'I get it, you guys… truly.'

But that was just how things worked when you were OP.

'Yeah, I know what I said before, but…'

At least for this moment, I had broken through to the heights of OPness!'

'Forgive me, friends. I know what it's like to lose.'

After all, in the first round, they took everything from me. I arrived to meet a city engulfed in debris and smoke. Dead bodies and despair welcomed me after I risked my life to win.

Right now, I just wanted to return the favour.

"Both of you, are trying to stall for time, are you not? You think if you hold out long enough, your comrades will come to your aid, right?"

Hogun and Adu expressed shock the moment I said this. It wasn't difficult to tell what they were up to, considering they were holding back in their attacks.

Unfortunately for them, their plan was pointless.

"Why don't you take a good look beneath you. Are you certain help is going to come anytime soon?" My lips curled up calmly as I pointed in the direction of the Golems.

Hogun and Adu's comrades were meant to be sweeping through the Golems, rounding up quickly, and rushing to their aid when they were done.

However—

"W-wha—?!"

"N-no way!"

—Their expectatios would be to no avail.

The Demon Generals were currently struggling to defeat their opponents. Out of the three thousand Golems, not even three hundred had fallen since the commencement of their long battle.

The reason behind that was quite simple—Holy Water.

'Holy Water serves as a Miasma repellent. It gives the Golems a form of resistance against the attacks of demons."

In short… they were screwed.

"As you can see, it's pointless to imagine that aid is coming anytime soon. In fact, don't you think it's your friends who need your help?"

The eight Demon Generals seemed to be getting exhausted—some even appeared injured.

My Golems weren't only capable of melee attacks, after all. They shot laser beams from their eyes, granting them the advantage in battling from a distance.

It was even a miracle that the Demon Generals were still alive at this point. Well… I wasn't exactly planning on killing them.

At least, not straight away.

"Tch. You… are you even human?" Hogun's glare intensified.

"Why do you ask? Don't I look like one?"

Oh, my dear friend Hogun. Wasn't he been too hurtful with his words? Did he really think I was a different creature or something ?

'Well, I wouldn't mind resembling an Elf. Hehe…'

"You know fully well what I mean! T-this power… this influence… this ability to fight back… humans shouldn't possess it!" He roared angrily, once again lunging at me.

It seemed he hadn't given up on the prospect of landing a blow. Perhaps it was because I hadn't retaliated against either of my attackers.

'Let's change that.'

>WHOOOSHHH<

Just as Hogun launched himself at me, I closed the gap between us, catching his fist in a flash.

And then—

>BOOOOOOMMMM<

—I dug mine deep into his stomach.
