One punch was not enough.
The Spirit-branded Retainer's body was very tough, and a single "Flash Strike" punch wasn't enough to deal any damage.
I need more.
Seiji continued to punch.
Peng peng peng peng peng peng —
It was like a machine gun … no, it was even more powerful than a machine gun!
He was now in the Body-strengthening Spell state, and the power of his fists had been greatly enhanced. Coupled with the superimposed speed of Bullet Time and Flash Strike, the result was …
Iroha Hasegawa was completely stunned!
The punch that landed on her body was not very powerful.
However, the speed at which the other party punched out was … inconceivable!
How could this be …
In the time it took for that thought to pass through her mind, she lost count of the number of punches she received.
All the fists landed on her abdomen.
As long as there were enough times, even a drop of water could pierce through a stone.
Therefore …
After so many blows, there was finally a punch that caused real damage to her!
Iroha couldn't believe it.
As a Spirit-branded Retainer, he was actually injured by an ordinary person — a Spiritual Ability user who wasn't even a Spirit-branded Retainer!?
Her powerful punch was still on its way.
It was too slow.
Seiji would definitely be able to dodge it … in fact, he wouldn't even need to dodge it.
He just had to keep punching his opponent!
How many punches did he throw, and how many more would he throw?
He didn't know. He didn't need to know.
Beat, beat, beat, beat —
He beat up the other party's movements until they changed shape.
His opponent's body twisted.
After confirming that he had indeed caused damage, Seiji stopped punching and raised his leg.
"Flashing Light Strike" Consecutive Kicks!
This skill could not only be used in the form of punches.
At this moment, he was like the incarnation of spring.
The green-haired girl was sent flying by the [Chain of Light].
His entire body spun and flew high into the sky.
In the air, the girl's expression was blank.
His head was also blank.
She could have adjusted her posture and landed safely.
But before he could come back to his senses, he fell heavily to the ground and rolled for a distance before he subconsciously flipped over and stood up.
Blood trickled down from the corner of his mouth, and he cut a sorry figure.
Seiji's kick left a lot of shoe prints on her clothes.
Iroha's anger reached a boiling point after she realized what had happened!
"You …"
"Is this power enough?" Seiji looked at her and asked.
You said that if I showed enough strength, you would listen to me.
Would this level of power be enough?
That was what he meant.
Iroha understood what Iroha meant.
She should calm down, but … no, impossible!
I … I actually … was … by this guy …
An incomparably intense anger filled his body and mind.
She couldn't think of anything else.
"You … go to hell —"
Killing intent erupted.
The surrounding weeds and gravel were suddenly cleared by the invisible energy that burst out from her. At the same time, she raised her hand and aimed at Seiji.
This time, it was for real!
Seiji sensed great danger.
Just as he was about to respond …
"Stop!" A loud shout rang out.
A figure suddenly appeared beside the green-haired girl.
Dang!
He blocked the sharp blade that was swung out from the darkness.
Then, the figure waved his hand and messed up the posture of the green-haired girl beside him.
A powerful Psionic attack was launched from the girl's hand.
Seiji did not move.
He couldn't see what was coming. He could only feel a gust of wind passing by a few meters to his right.
* Boom!! *
The gust of wind slammed into the remains of the merry-go-round, sending all of it flying.
It was like an RPG.
The broken pieces of the merry-go-round flew high into the sky before falling back down with an ear-piercing sound.
Seiji looked at the figure in front of him.
He was astonished to see a figure in front of him.
"Little Shi …"
That's right, it was Shika Kagura.
He didn't know when she had appeared behind the green-haired girl with a longsword in her hand. It seemed that she was going to chop down on the girl's neck.
The one who blocked this attack was the figure that had suddenly appeared just now. It was a yellow-haired youth wearing a black jacket.
This boy was holding a short dagger … no, something called a kunai. He used this dagger to block Shika Kagura's sharp blade.
At the same time, he placed his other hand on Iroha's shoulder, telling her not to move recklessly.
Several seconds of confrontation passed.
"Harano Seigo … I'm sorry, I can only call you that for now," the blonde boy said.
"Could you please have Kagura-san back down? I promise that Iroha won't act rashly again … we're not enemies! "
Seiji blinked upon hearing this.
"Little Shi … come over here."
Shika Kagura slowly sheathed her longsword upon hearing this, retreated a few steps, and disappeared into the darkness.
Moments later, she soundlessly appeared next to Seiji and approached him.
This was truly cool.
The beautiful black-haired girl wielding a longsword and moving soundlessly in the darkness seemed just like an assassin.
Seiji saw a brand-new side of his adopted younger sister.
Why was Shika-chan here? It was obvious to him that she must have been worried … which was why she secretly followed him here.
Shika Kagura looked at Seiji Mukai's face.
She met Seiji's gaze.
She was actually rather nervous, but she relaxed when she saw the gentle look in her adopted brother's eyes.
The siblings could talk later.
The most important thing right now was the person in front of him.
"Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Naoki Hasegawa, this person's older brother." The blonde boy patted the girl next to him on the shoulder.
"I was curious about the situation here, so I secretly came over to take a look … judging from the situation just now, I was right to come.
Nice to meet you, Harano Seigo -san. "
Seiji took a closer look at this person.
He had short, light yellow hair, and was wearing a black jacket and long pants. His appearance … was average, and his features were quite ordinary. He seemed quite ordinary.
Yep, to put it bluntly, he looked quite ordinary, and it would be easy to overlook him in a crowd. He didn't seem special at all, and he was even a little short.
However, this "ordinary" boy had not only blocked Shika Kagura's attack, he had even changed the direction of Iroha's attack, beautifully controlling the situation.
You shouldn't judge a book by its cover … this saying was quite appropriate for this person.
"Nice to meet you, Hasegawa … -san."
Seiji responded.
"I'm truly sorry about what just happened. My younger sister has a bad temper, so please forgive her generously, seeing that she didn't cause any harm." Naoki smiled.
Iroha's expression changed, and she wanted to say something, but she felt Seiji's hand on her shoulder, so she didn't say anything.
Seiji noticed this detail.
"You're being too polite. Forgive or whatever … I'm sorry about that as well. My adopted sister … was a little too impulsive."
'A little?
If almost cutting someone's head off was considered "a little too impulsive," then what would a normal action be like? Transforming into a Man Killer Demon? '
Naoki coldly commented in his mind.
Contrary to his outward friendliness, he was actually quite angry at these two people in front of him.
Even though his younger sister, Iroha, had a bad temper, and was unreasonable, she was still his younger sister.
His younger sister was beaten up right in front of him, and almost killed; it was impossible for him not to be angry!
However, he had to suppress his anger.
Otherwise, there would be no way to clean up this mess.
Harano Seigo … he was an outcast who had been personally chased out by the Grand Mistress, and no matter what, he was still the Grand Mistress's younger brother!
Killing him … would be quite simple, but if he really did that, he and his younger sister would definitely die a horrible death. Perhaps the Grand Mistress would even do it herself.
Naoki definitely didn't want to meet such a pitiful end.
That was why he could only smile. He had to smile; he had to smile.
