A seemingly high-level berserker was approaching. Should he face him or avoid him?
It would be unwise to recklessly fight against a powerful enemy whose condition was unknown and whose combat power was likely at its peak. Seiji decisively chose the latter.
"Let's hurry and avoid this Shigure Tendo!"
Seiji, Little Shi, Kanna, and Izawa immediately started moving.
They then sensed that Shigure Tendo had increased his speed and was chasing after them!
'It'll be bad if he catches up …' Seiji had such a feeling, so he told his companions to hurry up.
However, they met with two possessed individuals!
Two figures shrouded in black mist attacked them from within the mist. The four of them were forced to fight.
These two possessed people were much stronger than the ones they had encountered before! It would be difficult to deal with them within a short period of time.
Shigure Tendo's speed increased even further.
Seiji had an ominous premonition as he sensed that his enemies were getting closer and closer.
Should he use his full power to kill off the enemies before him and then continue escaping, or …
Seiji came to a decision after some quick consideration.
"Little Shi, I'm going to deal with Shigure Tendo!"
"Brother?" Shika Kagura looked at him.
"I'll decide what to do based on the situation. Don't come looking for me after you kill off these two. Continue heading south … "
Seiji glanced at Izawa after he finished giving out his orders.
"Izawa-kun, I'll leave the rest to you."
"Izawa-kun?"
"Kanna, help me take care of Little Shi."
"What's the matter, Seiji!?"
"I'm going to deal with that Tendo!"
Right after he said this, he found an opening and shot a large mana bullet at the enemy, sending him flying. He then turned around and left.
"Brother …"
"Don't worry, Little Shi. I won't try to be brave."
Seiji swiftly left his companions and returned in the direction he came from. He soon discovered that Shigure Tendo had changed directions and was chasing after him!
"As expected, his target was me …"
After killing off his enemies and teammates, it was now time for the younger brother of the enemy who killed his older brother …?
'Shigure Tendo, just what's your current condition?'
Seiji prepared himself after returning to the street where he previously fought.
When he sensed that the other party was not far away, he felt that the fog in front of him seemed to be stagnant, as if some huge and terrifying existence was about to appear.
"This aura … is really bad," the female spirit's voice rang out.
"Yellow Springs …"
"It's like the aura of an awakened demon, or an existence at the same or even higher level … Thou shalt not fight against it!" Yomi warned him in a serious tone.
"I don't want to fight either, but we need to stall for time until the enemy senses us …"
Before he could finish speaking, a black figure appeared in his field of vision.
His entire body was pitch-black, and his entire body was covered in gray and red chaotic runes. His eyes and forehead had three vortex-shaped runes that swirled with a dark red light. He gave off a demonic aura that was so strong that it almost seemed solid … Very dangerous!!
The moment he saw him, Seiji instinctively felt that this guy was very dangerous.
It was as if they had seen a giant that was 60 meters tall!
Although it was a little inappropriate to use the manga from his previous life as an analogy, he really thought so at this moment. He did not need to think or make a rational judgment. He could instantly sense it with his instincts alone …
"Hurry and run!!" Yomi gave him the strictest warning possible. "This isn't something that thou shalt be able to deal with right now!!!"
The next second, the demonic figure that was Shigure Tendo suddenly rushed towards Seiji!
Shigure left black mist-like trails in the air as he moved. The longsword in his right hand flashed with a blood-red glow.
[Demon Suppression Bell]!
Seiji cast a major spell that he had prepared beforehand.
A golden bell suddenly appeared and covered the demonic figure. However, it was cut apart in less than three seconds!
* Whoosh … * The demonic figure flashed in front of Seiji and stabbed his sword towards his heart …
Yanagi New Moon style, "Heart Piercer"!
* Boom! * The black mist turned into a spiral as Shigure stabbed out with his sword, creating a deep trench in the ground. The trench extended all the way to a nearby house, creating a large hole in the wall!
Seiji activated [Emergency Dodge] in time and completely dodged this attack. If this attack hit, he would either die or be crippled.
[Physical Explosion]!
Seiji unhesitatingly activated the first ability of Maki Kamizaki's card, which caused his physical abilities to explosively increase. His attack, defense, reaction speed, agility, senses, and so on all improved!
Combined with [Evolved Body-strengthening Technique], he would even be able to directly face a giant!!
* Whoosh … * Shigure flashed again and swung his sword.
His movements were incredibly fast, yet they seemed slow. There was even a strange sense of beauty to them.
This was actually a visual illusion created by Seiji's Mana movement technique! If Seiji wasn't able to see through it, he would probably be beheaded without even knowing what happened.
* Clang! * Seiji blocked Shigure's sword.
His improved physical abilities allowed him to barely keep up with Shigure's movements.
Shigure's swords clashed as black mist shot everywhere. There were continuous sounds of clashing, and cracks kept appearing in the ground. The cluster amaryllis flowers that were affected transformed into dots of light and disappeared.
Although it seemed like they were evenly matched, Seiji was actually at an absolute disadvantage. He had to use all of his strength just to parry Shigure's attack. He couldn't even find an opening to counterattack. Not only that, his arm was already numb from the impact!
Yanagi New Moon style, "Wing Dance"!
Shigure continuously slashed downwards and upwards. His sword was incredibly fast and powerful. Seiji barely managed to dodge one attack and block two. He was hit by the third attack. Just this attack alone caused his barrier to collapse!
[Bullet Time], activate!
Seiji did his best to distance himself from Shigure and dodge at full speed!
* Bam!!! *
Shigure's final consecutive slash exploded with incredible power. It created a straight crack in the ground, slicing through the houses on the street. The shockwave spread several dozen meters away!
Double the power of "Transcendence" combined with "White Calamity"!
Seiji grit his teeth and used his strongest ability. A pure white spiritual body suddenly manifested.
At this moment, Shigure's figure paused for a moment.
He mysteriously regained some of his rationality, and his hazy consciousness became clearer.
"Haruta … Seiji …" Shigure took this opportunity to speak.
Seiji: "!?"
Just as he was about to have his spiritual body possess him, Seiji suddenly heard Shigure speak. He paused in surprise for a moment.
"What … is this?" Shigure pointed at the spiritual body.
"… This is my secret technique's summoning creature, Shigure Tendo," Seiji answered.
"Summoning creature … help me … please …"
"Help you? Help you with what? "
"Get rid of … all of this … Arghhh …" Shigure made a pained sound as he covered his head with his hand. Black mist swirled around his body.
Something flashed in Seiji's eyes.
"How should I help you?"
"This … is useful … Give it to me …"
Give him the "White Calamity"?
Seiji instantly furrowed his eyebrows.
"I was almost killed by you just now! What good would it do me if I gave an important summoning creature to an enemy like you? "
"I … won't kill … you … I'll … help you … win …"
"So, you're saying that you'll give up on taking revenge for your older brother and will still help me win the tournament?"
"Yes … Hurry … up … I … Arghhh …" Shigure's entire body trembled as he screamed in extreme pain. The runes on his body glowed strangely.
Should he believe him or not?
Seiji was faced with an important decision.
"Yomi, what do you think?"
