Capítulo 38: Chapter 38: Now, I Am the Boss
"The Seven Kill Sigil, once fully lit, does not need to immediately release [Hidden Break Strike]. The imprisoned souls inside can be retained, but the duration of retention is currently unknown..."
"Moreover, the sword can hold a maximum of seven souls at a time. Any person killed afterward will not trigger the [Soul Imprisonment] effect. So, if you want to imprison someone's soul, you must ensure there is space in the Seven Kill Sigil, and it must not be full."
"Killing an enemy with [Invisible Strike] also does not trigger the [Soul Imprisonment] effect. It is assumed that during the release of [Invisible Strike], souls are leaking out, and only after it completely finishes can new souls be imprisoned. Of course, there is also the possibility that the enemy's soul is destroyed by that strike..."
"When cutting through so many weapons just now, I noticed a few times the blade had slight damage, but as the blood on the blade was absorbed, it healed and regenerated almost at a visible speed."
"It seems that after becoming a cursed tool, the original blade's regeneration ability has also been enhanced."
"However, the issue of insufficient strength still hasn't been resolved. If I encounter a strong opponent, the Executioner's Blade breaking would be normal. But for now, it is sufficient."
Shinsuke thought about the pros and cons of the weapon in his hand, summarizing experiences based on the previous test cuts, and unknowingly returned to the vicinity of the carriage where he was previously besieged.
Clang!
Seeing the man with a massive blade like a demon god approaching step by step, the surviving guards immediately drew their weapons in tension.
It wasn't that they wanted to repay kindness with revenge, but they were under too much pressure and could only find some sense of security this way.
But at this moment, a gentle and sweet voice came from the carriage.
"Put away all your weapons. Is this how you face your savior?"
The guards looked at each other and finally gritted their teeth and put their weapons away.
Firstly, it was the princess's order. Secondly, they realized that even if they combined all their weapons, they couldn't match the man's blade!
At this moment, Shinsuke also stopped, somewhat surprised, looking at the carriage.
He was thinking about whether to kill this group to avoid trouble. After all, anyone who dared to draw weapons on him was basically an enemy.
But unexpectedly, the person in the carriage spoke up, nullifying his previous excuse.
Whether the person inside sensed his killing intent or it was just a coincidence, he didn't know.
While Shinsuke was considering whether to kill or leave, the voice from the carriage spoke again.
"Thank you, sir, for saving my life. I should have given you a grand gift in return, but I left in haste and brought nothing with me. You may take whatever you like. If you leave an address, I will send a proper thank-you gift later."
Seeing that Shinsuke didn't respond, the voice continued, "If you have any requests, feel free to ask. I will do my best to fulfill them."
"Clicking his tongue twice, Shinsuke glanced at the Seven Kill Sigil on his blade, now all lit up, and decided to put it back on his back.
"You should thank these corpses, not me."
After saying something meaningful, Shinsuke turned and left.
Considering the test cut went smoothly, he decided to let them go this time.
As Shinsuke's figure disappeared from sight, many guards slumped to the ground, breathing heavily...
However, the thick smell of blood in the air made some of them turn pale and start retching.
Inside the small carriage, a dignified young girl also took a deep breath, her heart still racing.
Although she hadn't left the carriage the entire time, she saw everything through the window.
Including the mysterious and terrifying man slaughtering all the bandits like chickens and dogs, and the deadly gaze he cast when the guards drew their weapons!
At that moment, she realized the man was not a hero who came to save her.
That man...was just here to test his blade by killing!
And for testing, he could use bandits, guards, or even the princess.
One slash, no difference at all!
So she finally couldn't help but order the guards to put away their weapons.
Then she offered riches, hoping he would take something and let them go.
But he remained unmoved, almost making her despair.
Honestly, even when facing the bandits, she didn't see it as a life-or-death situation. But at that moment, she almost despaired.
But in the end, heaven favored her.
She wasn't sure if her words worked or if the man wasn't as terrifying as she thought.
In any case, the man left, and she survived.
"You should thank these corpses, not me...what does that mean?" the princess murmured, suddenly turning pale.
She was now more certain that she had indeed walked through the gates of death.
"Was it because the number of bandits was enough to complete his test, so he didn't kill anyone else..."
The princess shivered, feeling a chill.
That terrifying man was now deeply imprinted in her mind.
On the other side, when Shinsuke returned, Hidan glanced at the bloodstains on his clothes and roughly guessed what happened, but couldn't help but ask, "Why so slow? If I'd known you'd take so long to kill a few people, I'd have gone myself."
"You? Talk like that when you can beat me. Then I'll do whatever you say."
"Fine, it's a deal! Just wait, I'll take you down eventually. Then you'll be kneeling at my feet begging...ah!"
Retracting his fist, Shinsuke smiled menacingly, "You don't need to speak such inner thoughts out loud. Besides, you seem to forget one thing..."
"Now, I am the boss!"
Thud!
As the saying goes, a good beating every three days keeps mischief away.
Seeing Hidan getting cocky again, Shinsuke had to teach him a lesson.
So, after a thorough beating, he felt refreshed!
