【?  ?  ?  Perspective: Story between Days 90 and 113】
A Large Demon (Ogre) is, a brown Large Demon with an axe and shield is, in the deepest part of the certain Labyrinth (Dungeon), a bloodbath of a fight happens.
The enemy is a Demon. The same as the Large Demon, but this Large Demon (Ogre) had black skin and a silver left arm.
On their battle, the Black Demon was superior. While being an imitation created by reading the mind of the Large Demon, the Black Demon reinforced by the Large Demon's imagination knocks down the Large Demon with it's overwhelming force.
However, even if the Large Demon was being pressured, it didn't mean he was being one-sidedly defeated.
The halberd in the Black Demon's hand. Lightning shoots out from the tip, a water blade flies from the axe-head, flames flutter from the pick, the butt end has the ability to manipulate the earth, this halberd was about to decapitate the Large Demon.
The Large Demon succeeded in partially destroying it. Additionally, the Black Demon's body was cut by the sweep of the axe, its bones crushed with the massive shield, with a rock-hard blow he shocked its brain.
But is nowhere near to make the Black Demon surrender. The Black Demon uses carefully forged martial arts to corner the Large Demon with a myriad of beyond human skills.
Water bullets that flies trough the empty air gouge his meat. The raising ground becomes spears and wound his legs. Raging winds becomes blades tearing his flesh, cut off his horn.
Suddenly a knife is thrown and his arm is pierced. The axe which is boasted of its obliterating might is evaded and his supporting leg's knee is stomped on and bend over in a impossible angle.
The Black Demon's attack certainly shave off the Large Demon's life, however the Large Demon's attacks are healed by the Black Demon's superior regeneration ability.
Only the Large Demon continue exhausted, the Black Demon regenerate and doesn't show any fatigue as the battle continues.
But the Large Demon doesn't give up, and so he received destructive thorough blows.
His life was saved by his trustworthy shield's swing, parting from it and piercing it on the ground .
Out of obstinacy he didn't part from his beloved axe, however the pain felt from the destruction of his flesh, bones and organs was reaching a limit.
Blow after blow the Black Demon continue non-stop. At an almost imperceptible speed, fist as heavy as the Large Demon owns continue its barrage.
The Large Demon was blown away by the last blow, at the verge of death after putting a good fight.
Just a little more, if he had been a little slower he would be dead. The comrades that were watching the Large Demon's fight, before they could do anything to help, the Large Demon was about to die.
But, help was given.
God's, the Blessing of a great one. Comrades, helping the Large Demon who the Black Demon was aiming at. And to the Large Demon clinging to the last of his life, a new power was given.
There was thunders. Golden thunders.
There was flames. White flames.
Thunder and flames surround the Large Demon. The half-dead Large Demon on the floor start evolving.
Bull-head Demon 【Minotauros】. With a huge frame and bull's head, a rank higher than the Large Demon (Ogre) from the 【Oni】 monster evolution line.
He slowly stands. The Black Demon is surprised by the Minotauros appearance, the Minotauros can't understand the current situation. But with a simple thought, the Minotautos with his beloved axe in his hand approach the fake Black Demon.
The Black Demon was a formidable enemy until now, but it was nothing before the overwhelming speed and power of the Minotauros. The axe blow split the earth, golden thunder and white flames flaring from the destroyed surroundings.
The fake Black Demon was exterminated without even leaving a body.
Thus victory was obtained. The exhausted Minotaur falls once again, but to sleep rather than dead.
Then in front of his comrades, the Minotauros is wrapped in deep peace.
- In the future together with the real Black Demon the world will know his name, this is the awakening of the 【Great Emperor of the Destructive Axe】.

【閑話　斧滅大帝の目覚め】
　【？？？視点：九十日～百十三日目までの間の話】
　一匹の大鬼（オーガ）が、斧と盾を持つ赤銅色の大鬼が、とある迷宮（ダンジョン）の最奥で、血肉を削りながら戦っている。
　敵も鬼。大鬼と同じ、しかし黒い肌と銀色の左腕をした大鬼（オーガ）である。
　両者の戦いは、黒鬼が優勢だった。大鬼の内心を読み取る事で生まれた紛い物でありながら、大鬼の想像によって補強された黒鬼は圧倒的な力を行使して大鬼を打ちのめす。
　だが押される大鬼とて、一方的に負けている訳ではない。
　黒鬼が手にしたハルバード。穂先からは雷が迸り、斧頭からは水刃が飛び、ピックからは炎が舞い、石突きは大地を操る能力を持つ、大鬼の頸を刈りかけたハルバード。
　大鬼はそれを半壊させる事に成功する。その他にも斧の一振りで黒鬼の身体を斬り、分厚い盾で骨を砕き、岩のような殴打によって脳を揺さぶる事もあった。
　だが黒鬼を屈服させるのには遠く及ばない。黒鬼は鍛え抜かれた武術を使い、無数の異能を多用する事で大鬼を追い詰める。
　虚空から出現した水球が弾け、肉が抉られる。地面が隆起して槍となり、脚を傷つける。逆巻く風が刃となって肉を裂き、角を切り落とす。突如出現したナイフが投擲され、腕に突き刺さる。必殺の威力を誇る斧は円運動によって受け流され、軸足の膝が踏み砕かれてあり得ない方向に折れ曲がる。
　黒鬼の攻撃は大鬼の命を確かに削り、しかし大鬼の攻撃は、黒鬼の優れた回復能力によって癒えていく。
　大鬼だけが消耗し続け、黒鬼は回復して疲れを見せない戦いは続いた。
　だが大鬼は諦めず、それゆえに徹底的な殴打による破壊を受けた。
　幾度も命を助けてくれた、頼もしかった盾は弾き飛ばされ、手を離れて地面に突き刺さる。意地で愛斧だけは手放さず、しかし傷みすら感じない程の破壊は肉を、骨を、内臓を傷つけた。
　黒鬼の殴打に次ぐ殴打。拳が霞む程の速さで、大鬼の重量に匹敵するほど重い拳の乱打。
　最後の打撃によって吹き飛ばされた大鬼は、善戦空しく命を失う寸前に。
　事実もう少し、あと少し遅ければ死んでいただろう。大鬼の戦いを見守っていた仲間達が、助けるよりも前に、大鬼は死んでいた筈だった。
　だが、助けがあった。
　神の、偉大なる一柱の恩恵が。仲間の、大鬼が目指す本物の黒鬼の助けが。大鬼の命を繋ぎとめ、そして新たなる力を与えた。
　雷があった。黄金の雷だ。
　炎があった。白き炎だ。
　湧きあがる雷炎は大鬼を包み、一時は死にかけた大鬼は進化の階を上る。
　牛頭鬼（ミノタウロス）。巨躯にして牛頭の、大鬼（オーガ）を軽く上回る【鬼】系統モンスター。
　それがのそりと立ち上がる。黒鬼はミノタウロスの姿に驚き、ミノタウロスは現状が把握できない。しかし単純な思考によって、ミノタウロスは手にした愛斧で紛い物の黒鬼に迫る。
　あれほど強敵だった黒鬼は、しかし圧倒的な速度と攻撃力を得たミノタウロスの前に割断された。斧の一撃で大地は割れ、迸る黄金雷と白炎が周囲を破壊する。
　紛い物の黒鬼は、死体すら残さず消滅した。
　こうして勝敗は決した。力を使い果たしたミノタウロスは再び倒れるが、それは死ではなくただ眠る為に。
　駆けよる仲間の前で、ミノタウロスは深い安らぎに包まれる。
　――後々本物の黒鬼と共に世界に名を轟かす、【斧滅大帝】の覚醒である。
