Chapter 37: The Imperial Capital Incident

Calm waters, rippling ripples.

At this moment, all the spaces covered by the lake were filled with countless tiny and extremely small water mist.

Under the influence of these water mist, only half of the remaining "Bath Red Lotus" began to gradually shatter and collapse.

A strong sense of crisis emerged in Senjuro's heart.

He understood that with the Breath of Fire, which could not exert the strongest power in his hands, he could not resist this water sword technique that broke through the limit of this move.

Don't you want to know how I defeated the Winding Demon?

So......

Now, keep your eyes open and take a look!

"Breath of Fire, Type Ten, Blazing Shura!"

"Boom!"

The monstrous flames, at this moment, erupted continuously from Chijuro's body, dispersing the surrounding mist that was rotating at high frequency.

"Senjuro-kun, what does he want to do?"

Honey Glass of Ganlu Temple looked puzzled and said in a low voice.

As a disciple of Purgatory Xingjulang, she has learned the sword technique of Breath of Fire, although due to the difference in physique, she could not learn it in the end, and can only be modified into a derivative breath of Breath of Flame "Breath of Love", but she is still very clear about the nine-style sword technique of Breath of Flame.

But the scene in front of me seemed so unfamiliar.

In her memory, there was no such move in Breath of Fire.

Even Purgatory Kyojuro, who had been silent since the beginning of the pillar promotion ceremony, had a look of curiosity in his eyes: "This is, Purgatory? No, it's not! ”

"Hmph~ You'll find out in a moment."

The butterfly on the side covered her mouth and chuckled.

Hearing this, the big light green eyes of the honey glass of Ganlu Temple rolled slightly.

These two people must have some secrets!

In the courtyard, Senjuro, who was bathed in fire, had a calm face.

With the control of his mind and spirit, the flames in mid-air began to condense and compress until they turned into an illusory pale red transparent armor.

At the same time, his face, neck, and even the skin covered by his clothes all appeared in complex and magnificent dark red flame patterns, and their colors were dense and uncertain.

"It's, what?!"

Yaoya and the "pillars" who were watching the battle, as well as Yoshiyoshi Tomioka, who spread out the Nagi domain and was ready to strike at any moment, were all in shock.

This is an unheard of sword technique that is completely different from the traditional breathing method......

It is a completely different concept from the "Water Breath Eleven Nagi" which is a step forward in the original structure!

"Be careful."

Under the illusory armor, Senjuro's face was calm and he spoke softly.

And in the face of Tomioka's unheard of swordsmanship, he didn't dare to be careless.

From the moment the illusory armor appeared on Senjuro's body, a coercion that made him tremble began to appear, causing dense beads of sweat to appear in the palm of his hand holding the sword.

The next moment.

"Boom!"

There were no gorgeous flames, no roaring outbursts, only the sound of blades echoing in the air.

Devoted himself to Nagi's realm, Tomioka Yoshiyu, who kept his mind in a state of stagnant water, concentrated all his senses on the moment Senjuro's body disappeared, intending to lock on to his figure.

In the next moment, he clearly sensed that the figure shrouded in illusory armor all the way through the blockade of Nagi's domain and came straight towards him without concealment!

Nagi's realm is worthy of the name of breaking through the limit, and even if Senjuro's speed is exaggerated, it still locks him clearly and unambiguously.

However, it didn't work.

Chijurou moved so fast that Tomioka didn't even have time to think about how to respond, so he followed his body's instinct and raised the Nichiwa sword in front of him.

"Boom!"

The sound of metal clashing sounded.

With a figure flying out.

"Bang!"

Tomioka's back slammed into the trunk of the tree, and the strong force of the shock made him unable to help blood flow from the corners of his mouth.

In the center of the courtyard, the pale red illusory armor around Senjuro's body gradually dissipated into fine red dots, and the crimson blade slowly returned to its sheath.

The winner is decided.

Several medical personnel quickly came to Tomioka's side, and after some medical examination, it was confirmed that he had only suffered minor injuries and was fine, and then left.

"What a great battle!"

When Senjuro and Tomioka Yoshito returned to the team, and the pillars also stood up, Yaoya Sanyashiki stepped forward and applauded softly, admiring the great strength shown by the two: "It is precisely because there are powerful swordsmen like you in the human race that we have a chance to eradicate the evil of the world, such as evil spirits. ”

"But ......"

Speaking of this, his voice changed and became serious: "This time it is because of the ritual process that allows you to fight, the rule of the ghost killing team is that you are not allowed to swing a knife at your own people, I don't want to see you fight again." ”

"A sharp blade should never be cut at one's own people."

"Yes!"

Everyone hurriedly bowed their heads in response.

"Well, now that it has been proved that Senjuro-kun's strength is enough to serve as one of the "pillars", this 'pillar' promotion ceremony is officially over! ”

"From today onwards, the Ghost Slayer Team will have one more pillar-level swordsman, the title, 'Fire Pillar'!"

In the attic, the voice of Yaoya Shiki spread far away.

This time, no one objected again.

"Next, let's have a column meeting."

Yaoyashiki's face was heavy, and he read out the news from the imperial capital area.

"Recently, there have been dozens of cases of missing people in the imperial capital area, and the number of missing people is as high as 100, which has caused a huge panic. After investigation, there were large-scale blood stains in the area where the crime occurred, and there were even stumps left in some places, which were suspected to have been committed by evil ghosts. ”

"The local daimyo sent an urgent letter asking for the help of the ghost slayer team."

After reading the letter, Yaoya Sanyashiki said with a sad heart: "After the preliminary investigation of the junior team members, the location of the crime is distributed in many points, and the distance is extremely far, and there is a high probability that it was committed by more than one evil ghost. Moreover, the time of the crime is extremely close, as if there is a leader in the middle of the command, and it is suspected that there are twelve ghost moons. ”

"For the sake of this news, several of our swordsmen were seriously wounded, and even sacrificed a D-rank swordsman and a C-rank swordsman."

"So, who will go to this large-scale disappearance of the imperial capital?"

As soon as the words fell, Purgatory Kyojuro stood up and said, "I'll come!" These mutilated and weak unknots must be destroyed! ”

"Nope." Yaoya shook her head; "Xingjuro, the area you are responsible for has also been unstable recently, and you need to be in charge. In recent days, there have been frequent incidents of cannibalism by evil spirits in various regions, and the imperial capital is only one of the most serious. ”

Speaking of this, he turned his gaze to Senjuro: "I'm very sorry, Senjuro-kun, you just became a 'pillar of fire' and needed you to carry out the mission. Among the pillars present, only you and Shinobu do not have a special area to guard now, and this mission needs to trouble you and Shinobi to go. ”

"Please."

"It's okay, don't worry about leaving it to me!"

Chijuro smiled slightly.

He joined the Ghost Slayer Team, what did he want? Isn't it just the information on the location of the demon's appearance?

I didn't expect that as soon as I joined, there was news delivered to the door.

This ghost killing team really came right!

(Ask for recommendation votes, ask for reviews, ask for investment, ask for monthly passes, ask for ...... Ahhhhh )
