"How … How can it withstand the attack of a True Ancestor's familiar?!"
Kimi Yukina's voice was trembling as she looked at the "Masked Appendage" that was spreading its oval-shaped wings.
Yukina had witnessed the destructive power of familiars several times, so she knew how powerful they were.
Yukina was even more worried than Akatsuki himself when she saw that the familiar's attack was ineffective.
In the sky, Yakumo looked at the "Masked One" who had once again focused his attention on her. Her robe and long hair fluttered, and the space around her began to distort unnaturally. That was the embodiment of her demonic power being stimulated to the extreme.
On the other side, Maroon's familiar decided to attack the hated enemy that withstood its roar. But the result was the same. The twin-horned beast's powerful shockwave attack was easily penetrated by the 'Masked Adherent'.
It didn't nullify the familiar's magical power like Yukina's spear, nor did it nullify the power of the familiar's attack.
Instead, it dissipated like a breeze. Like a pebble thrown into a lake, it had no effect on the water's surface. Akatsuki's familiar couldn't touch the Masked One at all.
This shook Akatsuki's confidence in his familiar's power.
The twin-horned beast's attack didn't cause any damage to the 'Mask Adherent', but Yakumo's next attack made the man-made monster's brutal eyes reveal a look of fear for the first time.
"The realm of Sennin and Feet."
Sennin referred to the upper body, while Feet referred to the lower body.
This was a spell technique that could sever everything it came into contact with.
As long as something had the concept of up and down, it would be split into two.
Of course, Yukina had to use this realm first.
With Eight-cloud Ink's power, this realm wasn't enough to split everything.
The stronger the opponent was, the more resistant they would be to this realm.
In front of Kojou, Yukina, Astarut, and Natsuki, who was standing on the roof of a building in the distance, a burst of blood mist suddenly burst out from the waist of the 'masked man' in the sky.
"Huh? His body has clearly been split apart, yet he can still barely move by relying on those magic patterns? "
Although Eight-cloud Ink had said that it was going to cut off her body, in fact, Eight-cloud Ink had deliberately controlled it. It only cut half of the waist of the "Masked Adherent." With her modified body, such an injury was not fatal, but it should have made her lose the ability to move.
However, the appearance of the magic pattern made Eight-cloud Ink's plan go up in smoke.
Magic patterns were continuously radiating light from the severed waist, connecting the severed parts of the body.
Eight-cloud Ink furrowed his brows as he looked at the 'Masked One' who was trying his best to escape. His chest was heaving up and down. It was obvious that the current Eight-cloud Ink was still struggling to use this realm.
"Hmph, I can't let you run away like this."
Raising his folding fan, he pointed it at the "Masked One" from afar. After adjusting the somewhat chaotic demonic energy in his body, Eight-cloud Ink was preparing to give the "Masked One" the final blow that was trying to escape.
Suddenly, a flash of light came from the sky.
"What!?"
The moment he noticed the flash, Eight-cloud Ink escaped into the crack and appeared in the distant sky.
The real identity of the flash was a small figure with oval wings. It was the other "Masked One" who had been watching the battle from the sky.
This new "Masked One" held a lightsaber in his hand and pierced through the body of the previous "Masked One".
Being ambushed from the back, the 'masked person' from before screamed in agony.
She was pierced through by the flash of light and crashed into the middle of the TV tower. Blood spurted out as she twitched in pain.
"This is … Kanase Natsuon?"
After carefully observing the second "Masked One", Eight-cloud Ink's gaze fell on her long silver hair for a while.
A massive familiar in the form of a golden lion with lightning crackling all over its body suddenly appeared in the sky.
Kojou actually released his second familiar — Lion's Gold!
It seems that Kojou wanted to take advantage of the time when the two "Masked Adherent" were fighting each other to kill them.
"Wait! Kojou! "
Eight-cloud Ink instantly appeared next to Kojou and pressed his folding fan on Kojou's arm.
"Yakuma-sensei? Why is this happening? It's a good opportunity … "
"Well, I can't explain it in a short time. Watch carefully."
Eight-cloud Ink pointed at the two "Masked Adherent" who were entangled together.
The second "Masked One" pressed on top of the first one and used its claws to mercilessly gouge at the injured one. It broke the ribs, tore open the exposed skin, and tore the oval wings.
Although the first "Masked One" continued to resist fiercely, the outcome of the battle was determined in the first strike. The heavily injured "Masked One" finally stopped moving after he managed to inflict some minor injuries on the other party.
However, the dying "Masked One" used its last strike to shatter the mask of the second "Masked One".
Patterns that looked like electronic circuits appeared on her skin, illuminating her own face.
Kojou and Yukina opened their eyes wide.
"… Impossible! That person … That face!? "
"Liar …"
Clearly, Kojou and the others recognized the beautiful face that still retained some youthfulness.
The silver hair that reminded them of the snowfield and the blue eyes that were as pale as the light of the ice river.
Kanase Natsuon.
The student who always had a gentle smile on her face and liked animals.
Under Kojou and Yukina's incredulous gaze, she was covered in blood and looking down at the "Masked One" who was the same as her.
"… Stop, Kanase …!"
Ignoring Kojou's shout, the girl opened her mouth with a distorted face.
The next thirty seconds of the scene were cut by the river crab.
"They're … devouring their own kind …"
Kojou stepped back and shook his head subconsciously. He couldn't believe what he was seeing.
"Just like Gu, it devours its own kind, and the one who survives is the strongest."
Eight-cloud Ink squinted his eyes slightly.
There were also such races among the monsters that devoured their own kind to become stronger.
"Sensei … You already knew, right?"
Kojou suddenly grabbed Eight-cloud Ink's arm.
"You already knew. That's Kanase, right?"
Eight-cloud Ink glanced at the mentally unstable Kojou with a troubled expression and broke free from his grasp.
"Let's not talk about this for now. Let's try to save that girl first."
Before Kojou could react, Eight-cloud Ink's body disappeared.
Kanase Natsuon, who had finished devouring, noticed something strange behind her. She turned around and looked at Eight-cloud Ink.
On the girl's distorted beautiful face, there were frightening tear stains.
"As expected … Her consciousness hasn't completely disappeared. There's still hope."
Thinking of this, Yakumo immediately attacked.
"Succubus!"
Succubus waved its claws as it came out of the rolling Ink Beach.
Seeing that Succubus temporarily blocked Kanase Natsuon's attack, Eight-cloud Ink immediately cast a spell that he saw in Patrice's library.
