…
Seiji opened up his system and checked the contents of Mika's card while he was traveling earlier.
It would obviously be incredibly useful to increase both his base stats and his various stats. The three additional abilities that were currently in effect were all incredibly powerful as well. All in all, it felt like the power of a king … no, this was the power of a king!
[Ability Enhancement, Defense Enhancement, Dodge Enhancement, and all had limited uses without any cost!] This was basically a standard ability that any hero should have. What else could this be other than the power of a king?
And now, Seiji was about to use this power.
[Power of Surpassing] was capable of increasing the power of any skill. Since his connection level exceeded 100, it increased the number of times he could use it. Since he could use it twice per day, that meant that it could increase his own power!
[Power of Surpassing] followed by [Power of Surpassing] would double increase the power of his next skill. In that case, just how powerful would this skill be?
Seiji wanted to try it out.
After raising his longsword, Seiji activated his ability!
The cow-head man and the two women watching from the side all felt that he was suddenly emitting a strange aura, as if he was brewing some kind of mysterious power.
Immediately after, this aura increased by another level! It was so powerful that even the air seemed to be stagnant.
I can't tell what he's doing … but it does seem a little dangerous. The dog head girl thought to herself.
She didn't think that the cow-head man would be defeated, because there was a difference in their realms, and their strengths were on different levels. However, if the "knight leader" went all out, he might be able to cause some damage to the former.
This was already a very high evaluation. The dog-head girl didn't believe that her "knight captain" would be able to do more than that.
However, what happened next was completely beyond her expectations.
Seiji waved his longsword, and a pure white human-shaped spiritual body suddenly appeared. It instantly gave everyone present tremendous pressure … no, it should be said that it was terrifying!
The appearance of this white spirit body was very ordinary. It was a translucent white humanoid figure. Its shape was more feminine, like a blurry young girl ghost.
But its existence there brought about an instinctive fear to the human race! Anyone who saw it would feel a sense of dread that told them not to get close to it, and that they had to get away from it immediately!
"This is …" The dog-head girl's eyes widened under her mask.
She didn't dare to believe what she was seeing! Such a thing, such power … this was impossible!?
Mika was also afraid, but she didn't understand why she was so afraid. That "ghost" clearly didn't seem scary at all. Any random monster here would be far scarier than it.
The cow-head man's gaze froze over. He didn't expect that Seiji would be able to summon such a powerful existence!
[White Calamity] — Little Shi's first ability was to summon a powerful humanoid spiritual body that possessed the power of calamity.
Seiji had tried using this ability before. Since he felt that it was dangerous, he didn't practice it against Hitaka or Rona.
He originally thought that he would use this ability in his duel against Akira Mitarai, but before he could use this ability, Akira Mitarai received a backlash … This was the first time that he was using this ability in a duel.
'Attach yourself to me!'
Seiji telepathically commanded the humanoid spiritual body of calamity. The humanoid spiritual body instantly entered his body.
Seiji's body instantly started giving off a faint white light. He felt an incredibly powerful mystical power surging through his body. This power was far stronger than when he tested it before!
His dual [Transcendence] powers were indeed effective.
In fact, Seiji felt like he would be able to injure anyone with just a single glance.
And so, he glared at his opponent.
* Crack! *
There was a loud cracking sound as the gray magical bracelets around the cow-head man's wrists and ankles suddenly shattered!!
The cow-head man's body trembled slightly as he instantly cast an even stronger defensive spell.
Multiple complex spell formations flashed around him. A dark gray light suddenly appeared all over his body as a large number of runes flashed in the light.
Protection spell, [Ninefold Body]!
This was the strongest defensive spell that the cow-head man could cast at a high speed. It was capable of easily blocking anti-tank rockets. Normal Spiritual Ability users definitely wouldn't be able to break through this spell.
However …
Seiji charged forward and swung his sword at the cow-head man.
* Boom!!! *
The cow-head man blocked this attack. However, all his spells still collapsed! The cow-head man was sent flying backwards!!
Actually, he wanted to dodge. Logically speaking, he should have been able to dodge. But, when Seiji swung his sword at him, he felt like he was unable to dodge at all! It was as if his movements were restricted by space itself.
'This is against the rules! Why is a newbie able to use such terrifying power!? '
The cow-head man roared in his mind as he regained his footing. Blood was trickling down from his mouth.
Just withstanding this attack had caused him to receive internal injuries!
He never expected that Seiji would use such a technique. It was just like a child saying something mean would take out a plastic holy sword or a toy gun. But, instead, it was a fully equipped mecha!
"A slightly dangerous technique" … was this only at the level of "slightly dangerous"!? Could there be an even more dangerous technique than this!!?
The cow-head man would rather fight against a real mecha than against such a frightening power! Yet, his pride wouldn't allow him to stop here.
Seiji continued his attacks.
The cow-head man hurriedly restored his defensive spells and did his best to strengthen them. Only then was he able to forcefully block Seiji's second attack.
* Boom! Boom! Boom! * Seiji kept attacking while the cow-head man continuously blocked. His defensive spells kept collapsing and recovering.
"Team Leader …" Mika's eyes lit up when she saw that Seiji was gaining the upper hand.
Meanwhile, the dog-head woman smiled wryly under her mask when she saw how wretched the cow-head man was.
'I need to hit him at least once.' That was what Seiji thought.
'I definitely can't let him hit me!' The cow-head man grit his teeth. Being directly hit by a sword that contained such a frightening amount of power, even if it was only the back of the sword, it would still be difficult for him to endure!
* Boom!!! *
The cow-head man barely managed to block for a while before he was sent flying for the second time.
Seiji instantly caught up to the cow-head man and was about to slash him with the back of his sword …
"Stop!"
The dog-head woman shouted out.
Seiji paused in his actions.
The cow-head man somersaulted in midair and dodged.
"If you hit the cow-head man again, he'll be seriously injured," the dog-head woman told him. "Let's stop here, Mr. Knight Leader."
Seiji glanced at her before looking back at the cow-head man.
"Hmph … you talk too much." The cow-head man harrumphed as he sheathed his sword and fell silent.
This was a tacit agreement with the dog-head woman's words.
Seiji glanced at the cow-head man for a while before sheathing his sword as well.
"Thank you for your guidance," Seiji politely said.
