Ignoring the actual defensive abilities, this visual effect was quite impressive.
"You'll need to come over here to test out defensive spells."
Summer Night led Seiji to another location and indicated for him to stand in front of a machine that resembled a cannon and face the "cannon."
'Come, fire at me! '
This line appeared in Seiji's mind.
Summer Night operated the "cannon." The machine activated, and the "cannon" began to glow.
No way, was she really going to fire at him?
Seiji felt the urge to dodge.
But this was a test … testing out defensive spells meant that he would be beaten.
"Prepare to attack. Three, two, one."
* Boom! *
A ball of light shot out from the "cannon" and struck Seiji's barrier.
The instant that the ball of light hit, the "water" instantly gathered at the spot that was hit and blocked the ball of light.
The ball of light was actually a baseball.
This baseball was half-covered by the "water" and floated in midair. It was swiftly corroded and turned yellow before finally shattering into pieces.
It had the same effect as a missile.
"This corrosive effect is so strong. Just what kind of power is this?" Summer Night muttered to herself.
She had already used her [Astral Vision] to observe. Seiji's current Spirit-branded Retainer appeared to be a low-level, mid-level Spirit-branded Retainer, which was slightly weaker than the heroic spirit Minamoto no Raiko's previous spirit.
However, this powerful corrosive effect was far stronger than she had expected.
She didn't know what the limits of this corrosive ability were, but from what she had seen so far, it couldn't be underestimated.
Summer Night trusted her own eyesight, but she also knew that her [Astral Vision] was unable to see through everything, so it was inevitable that she would make an error in judgment.
With such power, Seiji's actual strength as a Spirit-branded Retainer was much higher than it seemed!
If she factored in his corrosive ability, he should be even stronger than when Minamoto no Raiko possessed him. Perhaps … he had reached the level of a high-level Spirit-branded Retainer?
Even if he hadn't reached that level yet, it was still quite astonishing.
This mysterious female spirit was actually stronger than the heroic spirit Minamoto no Raiko … just who was she?
Summer Night thought of several possible existences, and she felt that the closest one was Tamamo no Mae, who was also one of the three strongest and evilest demons, just like Shutendoji.
She was a white-faced, golden-furred nine-tailed fox with golden fur.
She had transformed into a beautiful and enchanting Princess Consort that could topple a nation.
It was a great monster, but it also had some characteristics of a heroic spirit.
After being subjugated, it turned into a Stone of Slaughter, which possessed a powerful curse power.
It was just that he couldn't find a corresponding drowsiness.
But demons had different shapes and personalities, so a sleepy Tamamo no Mae didn't seem strange at all.
The real problem was that Tamamo no Mae's poison was a poison that targeted living things. It didn't have any destructive power towards non-living things, which didn't match the corrosive effect.
Even if the corrosive effect was a variant of the Power of Curse, a computer with the relevant data should be able to more or less analyze it. However, the actual situation was not analyzed.
Also, it was rumored that Tamamo no Mae had been attacked by Seimei Kamijou. The two of them had a deep relationship, but it was a fated relationship. Why would she descend upon Seiji, who was Seimei's descendant?
Summer Night was very uncertain.
With such a contradiction, it was impossible to confirm whether or not this mysterious female spirit was Tamamo no Mai. Seiji could only say that this was the most likely possibility.
The tests continued.
Seiji then tested [Astral Vision] and [Telekinesis].
[Astral Vision] evolved with his bonded spirit's power. Seiji's pupils would turn golden, and his vision would become clearer. He would also be able to see 360 degrees! He would be able to see everything around him without having to turn his head.
This was the advanced version of [Beginner-level Astral Vision], [Full Vision].
This feeling of being able to see was rather unique. It took some time for him to get used to it.
As for the evolution of [Telekinesis], it turned into a giant golden hand!
This giant hand didn't have any corrosive properties. It could grab objects, use it as a fist to attack, or use it as a shield. It was incredibly flexible.
Finally, [Body-strengthening].
After Seiji mentally prepared himself, he used this spell with his bonded spirit's power.
Then, through the mirror in front of him, he saw that his entire body was covered in a golden mist. Golden runes appeared on his skin, and his hair was covered in golden light. It looked like he had long, flowing golden hair …
Was this a golden shimmer?
No, this was a Super Saiyan!
Seiji was stunned by this sight.
He really did look like a Super Saiyan!
Coupled with his evolved [Mana Bullets], he could definitely cosplay as a Super Saiyan Turtle-Haired Qigong!?
As this thought flashed through his mind, Seiji really wanted to try it out. He even wanted to ask the president, Grand Mistress, to help him take a picture … Cough, that would be too embarrassing. 'Let's stop.'
Seiji smiled as he looked at the mirror.
Back in his previous life, when he watched Dragonball, he had imagined himself transforming into a Super Saiyan more than once. He had also tried to transform into a Super Saiyan as well as use the Qigong Qigong.
In his previous soul battle against Okubo, he had also transformed into a Super Saiyan and used his Qigong to defeat Okubo.
This was no longer in the soul realm, but in reality … He never expected that his dream from his previous life would not only come true in the form of his imagination, but in this form as well!
Seiji felt that this was wonderful, so he smiled.
Summer Night, who was watching from the side, found it strange that he was smiling.
When she saw his smile, she couldn't help but recall the time before the duel against Okubo, when she accompanied him at school to practice the [Body-strengthening] technique.
At that time, his smile was just like this as well — bright, bright, and somewhat childish.
She had been moved by his smile at that time, and now … it was the same.
She wanted to know why he was smiling.
And so, she asked.
Seiji wanted to answer, but this world didn't have the Dragonball manga, so it would be difficult for him to answer.
So, his response was …
"Because I think I'm really handsome right now!"
This was a rather narcissistic statement, but his tone was sincere and hearty, without the slightest hint of arrogance.
'He really is handsome. '
Summer Night thought to herself.
She had only met one boy in her life who could brag about himself in such a hearty tone and make others acknowledge him from the bottom of their hearts.
She smiled as she gazed at his face.
Seiji tested himself in this form.
The result was that not only did his strength, speed, and dexterity greatly increase, there was also a corrosive effect when he used too much force in his attacks.
He finished testing all the evolved spells.
"All in all, the most important thing to pay attention to is that mysterious corrosive power." Summer Night concluded, "This power is incredibly strong, and it's highly destructive to both the human body and physical objects. You need to be careful when using it."
Seiji nodded in understanding.
For example, if the evolved Mana Bullets hit a living person, the scene that would appear … would probably be pixelated if it was shown in an anime.
Just what was this power? Just who was this female spirit that possessed such power?
Seiji tried to wake her up again, but there was still no response.
Summer Night told him about her conjecture about the spirit's identity.
Tamamo no Mae's … virtuous wife, Yu?
Seiji recalled the 5-star mage in the game from his previous life. As the leader of the African tribe, he had spent quite a bit of money in order to draw her. After drawing her, he licked her … no, enjoyed and used her to his heart's content.
Although he wasn't sure if it was Tamamo no Mae, even if it wasn't Tamamo no Mae, it was at least a powerful existence. Could it be that his bad luck from his previous life had become good luck in this life? Last time, he got Light-chan, and this time, he got what appeared to be Yu. He felt that he was quite lucky.
After chatting for a while longer and telling the Grand Mistress how to meet tomorrow, he said goodbye and left.
…
Later that night.
Seiji was wondering what kind of drawing he should give Little Shi as a Winter Snow Festival present.
After thinking it over, he picked up his paintbrush and began smoothly drawing on the paper while activating a certain ability.
A beautiful girl gradually took shape as he drew.
The girl wore clothing that resembled Sakura Island's clothing. Her overall style leaned towards fantasy, but the patterns on her clothing seemed to contain mystical elements.
Her long hair flowed elegantly in the wind, and her bangs covered her forehead. She had a brilliant smile on her face. Her eyes were sparkling as she looked in front of her. She was holding a demon mask in her left hand and reaching out with her right hand as if she was about to grab something.
After he finished drawing this beautiful girl, Seiji started drawing a second character in the direction she was looking at, a handsome boy.
This boy had a strong build and wore a collared windbreaker. There were mystical runes on his windbreaker that resembled both pictures and runes.
His hair was white with only a single strand of black hair. He had a handsome face and gentle eyes. He held a longsword with a cross-shaped guard in his left hand and reached out towards the girl with his right hand, about to receive her outstretched hand.
These were the female and male main characters of Brother Monogatari, the adopted younger sister and older brother!
Seiji chose to draw the two main characters of this first story that he had co-written with Little Shi. He believed that she would definitely like it.
In order to draw the best, Seiji activated the third ability of his character reward card [Shika Kagura], [Sibling Drawing]! He used his concentration to increase his ability to draw the older and younger sister characters.
As he drew, he recalled how he had discussed this story with his adopted younger sister, and felt moved. Seiji did his best to express this feeling through his drawing.
