"So this means I can go all wild, right?" Heracles cracked his fingers and walked towards us.
If I must say, he was similar to Aotabo in terms of fighting style and strength.
He had a big body, and his strength was immense. Each of his steps was embedded on the ground, and I know that he finally turned serious now.
Unfortunately for him, there was someone who can even hold Aotabo's full strength here.
When Heracles took a step forward, he immediately stopped moving. No, he can't move.
"Try it and let's see if you can take a step forward."
Kubinashi held a lot of strings in his hands and bit two strands of strings with his teeth.
Heracles's body was bound by red strings and he can't move a muscle.
"Heracles! That's just string, why don't you just snap it and kill them!" Shouted Jeanne from behind.
Even though it was just a string, if one looked closely, the string had a tiny layer of black smoke surrounding it.
It was Kubinashi's Fear, to turn his string as strong as steel and as sharp as a blade.
Heracles's vain was visible on his face. He was trying hard to free himself from the strings, but he can't.
But it looked like I was wrong about something. The humans moved rather fast.
When Siegfried saw Heracles can't move, two swords appeared in his hands and he rushed towards us while slashing horizontally.
This time Masaomi was the one who blocked him. He leaped towards Siegfried and blocked his slash with the light sword.
The swords that Siegfried held were demon swords Gram and Balmung.
These swords would be proven useful for me, especially Gram with its dragon slayer characteristic. It would help me kill those Evil Dragon without any problem.
"You! How can a devil like you use that light sword!" Siegfried shouted at Masaomi as he tried to push him away.
"And why would someone who wears a priest robe wield demon swords?" Asked Masaomi back.
"It's because I am powerful!" Siegfried shouted and put more strength on his slash, sending Masaomi's slash away.
They then exchanged sword slashes one after another while I still looking at their boss, Cao Cao.
"Yo, isn't it boring just watching them? How about you dance with me?"
Unsurprisingly, the one who answered me wasn't Cao Cao, but Jeanne.
"You! I will fight you instead of him, prepare yourself!" Jeanne leaped towards me while pointing her rapier at me.
Her speed was fast, but it was not enough to harm me. I didn't even need my Fear to dodge her attack.
When she reached me, she thrust her rapier aiming at my heart. I just stepped to the right and put my left hand in my Kimono.
"Wow, you have a flexible hand. How about it, want to be a dancer in my Hyakki Yakkou?"
I touched her hand and she went mad. She sent a series of thrusts towards me, but I just dodged it easily without moving my hands.
Maybe because she reached her boiling point, she now used her sacred gear and a lot of holy swords appeared under my feet, trying to stab me.
I jumped to the sky and made some distance between us and pointed my Nenekirimaru at her.
"Sword Blacksmith, truly a convenient Sacred Gear. Even I just use this my old trusty Katana to fight someone, and you can just make a lot of swords! But, you…"
I rested Nenekirimaru's blade on my shoulder and raised my chin.
"You are weak, huh?"
Her fuse was lit, and she gritted her teeth in anger.
She jumped to the air and slashed her rapier from the left to the right. At the same time, she swung her rapier, a dozen of holy swords appeared on the ground and made their way towards me.
The holy swords were advancing at fast speed, and when they almost reached me, they suddenly spread out and made a mountain of swords and stabbed the place I was in.
Jeanne landed on the ground and made a smug smile.
"Hah, that's the consequences of trying to fight me."
Hearing my enemy getting satisfied after they have done nothing always amuses me. I put my head on her shoulder and canceled my technique, Meikyo Shisui, and appeared behind her.
"Are you sure?"
She was surprised and jumped away immediately before touching her shoulder in confusion.
On the side, Heracles was finally able to free himself from Kubinashi's bind. There was a glowing aura around his hand, a sign that he used his Sacred Gear.
Siegfried who fought Masaomi also used his Sacred Gear. From his back grew a silver arm that held his third Demon Sword.
Masaomi could still fight him, so it was no problem.
"You, how can you appear behind me without me noticing it!"
Oh, I unconsciously ignored Jeanne.
I smugly smiled at her and raised my left index finger.
"Nah, why don't you find it yourself?"
As soon as I said that, I activated Meikyo Shisui again and disappeared from everyone's sight.
I really hate someone who just watching the fight, so I made my way towards Cao Cao and strike him using my Nenekirimaru.
I slashed him on his neck, but surprisingly he was able to respond and blocked my attack with his spear.
"Oh? You can block it? Interesting, how about you work for me instead of Khaos Brigade?"
Cao Cao responded to me with a smile.
"Unfortunately I had no intention of working for someone. Let's do the opposite, how about you join the Hero Faction? Together, we will erase Devils and Fallen Angels from this land!"
Our sword and spear were still interlocked. If we made a wrong move, the other side would definitely use that chance to attack.
"Erase the Devils and Fallen Angels? Nah, I am not interested. I am more interested in your plan that targeted youkai, that's why I come here you know?"
That was a lie though.
There was no reason to tell him everything I know and a lie could serve as a weapon to shake our opponents.
"Is that so? Then I will kill you here."
Magic Circle appeared behind Cao Cao and a beam was shot to me at a fast speed.
I ignored it, as I had moved since earlier and used Kyouka Suigetsu. The thing that hold Cao Cao was just my fake that was given mass with my Sacred Gear.
I found out that I was able to do this in our training, and it was good.
The beam hit my fake and it dissolved in a black cloud of smoke.
At that moment, Cao Cao was surprised and I slashed his left arm with Nenekirimaru.
My slash was connected, and Cao Cao's left was injured. He was lucky because he realized something was wrong at the last moment and moved his arm slightly.
He jumped backward and landed beside Jeanne before holding his left arm.
"Now, shall we begin round 2?" I said as I pointed Nenekirimaru to the ground and black smoke gushed out of my body.
Creation is hard, cheer me up by joining my Patréon!
