'Be careful!'
Seiji gave a warning, but Rode didn't seem to hear him at all.
Black mist started coming out of the headless body's neck as if it was about to transform … Seiji wanted to at least cast a [Purification] spell against it, but he was unable to do so. He could only watch on helplessly.
At this moment, his vision darkened, and his consciousness became hazy before becoming clear again. He returned to Kazuko's Domain.
Seiji paused in his footsteps.
Little Shi and Tomohisa noticed this and both looked towards him.
"What's the matter?"
"There's something … I'll tell you later."
Seiji wanted to conquer this area first before telling them what happened.
He had a faint premonition that he would meet …
Soon, a large amount of dense black mist appeared and swiftly formed into black wolves, black monkeys, black tigers, and many other spiritual monsters.
Little Shi was the first to draw her sword. Seiji followed behind her, while Tomohisa began creating a ball of lightning.
* Boom!! *
The black ball of light exploded amidst the group of spiritual monsters. Not only did it cause a large AOE damage, it also imprisoned many spiritual monsters!
This new skill, "Thunder Explosion" (temporary name), had a larger AOE compared to a direct thunderbolt attack. It also had stronger damage and paralysis effects. It was quite useful against groups of normal monsters as well as boss monsters.
With Tomohisa using this skill to assist him, Seiji felt that it was much easier for him to kill monsters. Just this skill alone made the first knight of the Seiji Family quite useful.
Mika's "Dimension Shattering Jade" and Tomohisa's "Thunder Explosion" … The Awakened's power was evident from this.
Seiji couldn't help but imagine what powerful skills Genji, Hoshi, and Feng Wu would learn. There was also the possibility that Mayuzumi would learn something out of the ordinary … Perhaps his knight order would truly become an incredible faction after all his members grew up!
Cough … he shouldn't think too far ahead.
He shouldn't get distracted while fighting. Seiji dispelled all distracting thoughts and focused on killing monsters.
"A powerful one is coming. Be careful!"
Kazuko suddenly warned him when he was almost done with killing monsters.
A dense dark-green mist appeared and swiftly formed a spear-wielding humanoid … a headless humanoid spiritual monster!
This humanoid figure held a red spear with both hands. His black body was covered in messy green patterns, and a black-red aura surrounded him. Although it was only the size of an adult male, it gave off a frightening aura that none of the gigantic spiritual monsters Seiji had seen so far could compare to!
"What is this …" Tomohisa looked surprised.
Up until now, he had only seen animal-shaped monsters. Now that he had suddenly seen a headless spearman, he was shocked by the sudden change in style.
The next instant, the headless spearman charged at him at high speed! In the blink of an eye, the sharp red spear tip was right in front of his eyes!
It was so fast that Tomohisa couldn't react at all.
At that moment, he didn't even have time to raise his shield. He saw death!
Boom!!!
With a loud crash, someone rushed over from the side and stopped the arrival of the Grim Reaper.
It was Seiji.
The headless spearman … His premonition had come true!
The moment that Seiji saw this humanoid monster, he was on high alert. When he saw that the headless spearman charged at him, he immediately reacted by charging at him with his shield!!
This timely reaction saved Tomohisa's life.
The headless spearman didn't lose its balance even though it was suddenly charged at. It flashed and pulled some distance away from Seiji before stabbing at him again!
Shield block, [Ksitigarbha technique]!
Seiji steadily blocked this spear attack and counterattacked with his White Lotus spiritual sword.
The headless spearman dodged and continuously stabbed at him!
Seiji calmly blocked all of the attacks.
This headless spearman was obviously much stronger than the one he saw in the strange world. Was it because it had transformed into a monster?
No … he couldn't simply confuse this side with that side.
Although both sides influenced each other, they probably weren't completely the same … Seiji didn't know what the specific pattern was.
After blocking the headless spearman's consecutive stab, Seiji took advantage of an opening and suddenly counterattacked with his spiritual sword!
At the same time, Little Shi also attacked as if they had a tacit understanding. She slashed down with a tremendous ice blade!
* Boom!! *
The headless spearman blocked Seiji's stab attack, but Shika Kagura's ice blade slashed at him.
The ice blade shattered, but the headless spearman didn't seem to be injured at all.
Seiji swung his sword again, and the headless spearman dodged to increase the distance between them. His red spear started glowing.
"Little Shi!"
Seiji shouted out when he sensed danger.
Battle technique, [Spiraling Stab]!
There was a flash of red as the spear instantly spun at a high speed. The tip of the spear released a blood-red flame, and the spear immediately drew a blood-red arc as it pierced forward at lightning speed!!
Defensive spell, [Ice Wall]!
Shika Kagura formed a seal and cast a spell, creating a thick blue ice wall in front of himself and Seiji.
* Shing!! *
The red spear pierced deeply into the ice wall and pierced right through it!
This defensive spell only delayed the spear for one second.
But, that was more than enough. He would be an idiot if he still couldn't dodge the spear after one second.
The headless spearman continued its attacks, while Seiji and Little Shi joined forces to fight it.
The two of them fought fiercely … Tomohisa wanted to help, but his hands were trembling.
He had almost been killed just now! He could almost see the flashing lights.
Although he knew that fighting in the Domain would be life-threatening, he had no problems along the way, so he couldn't help but relax slightly.
But just now, he finally recognized his current situation.
This was a battlefield!
Even with Seiji and Kagura-san's protection, danger still existed. He absolutely couldn't be careless.
After he calmed down, Tomohisa determined that participating in such a high-level battle would do more harm than good, so he wisely avoided the battle and observed from afar.
An intense battle, amazing spells, and instantaneous attacks and defense … this was a battle between powerful Spiritual Ability users!
'Can I do this as well after I become stronger?'
The scene before him was just like a fantasy battle anime. Tomohisa couldn't help but feel a burning passion in his heart when he thought that he might be able to reach such a level as well.
This was the feeling of being hot-blooded … true "hot-blooded"!
Although he felt that he wouldn't become like his idiotic older brother, he could more or less understand his older brother's feelings now.
…
The headless spearman didn't have a barrier protecting its body, but its physical endurance was quite high! Basically, it didn't have a protective shield and had a long health bar.
Seiji tried using [Cleansing] on it. It was quite effective … but that was all he could do.
He could only take things slow and steady.
Seiji and Little Shi had a tacit understanding with each other. They would attack steadily while protecting themselves. If the headless spearman used an ultimate attack, they would defend. If there was an opening, they would use their own ultimate attack.
Gradually, the dark-red aura around the headless spearman began to decrease.
When the aura was almost exhausted, the headless spearman suddenly had a sudden burst of power and continuously used powerful attacks! Its speed was so fast that even Shika Kagura's [Ice Wall] couldn't keep up!!
At this critical moment, Seiji cast a defensive barrier that he had prepared beforehand …
Defensive spell, [Turtle Armor]!
Numerous hexagonal spell formations formed a compound barrier with his shield as the center. It looked just like an energy shield in a sci-fi movie.
