The interval of the instrument’s sounds gets faster, and Yamaya is dancing more intensely.
Yua felt her heart rate crawl up. She walked over to Tamaki, who was still being held back by the people and a giant dog.
“Ooh, Akaimajo-sama!!!” The demon eximed with his face pressed to the floor. “Give me the strength so I can fight them!!! They want to destroy your dreams!!!”
Veins began to appear on Tamaki’s body, then his muscles expanded again, tearing his clothes. The people holding him were overwhelmed.
“We will rule this world, Akaimajo-sama!!!” The demon managed to raise his face, which no longer showed any signs of human simrities. He really looks like a monster. “We will fill this world with demons who are superior to humans! Then, we will kill all the remaining humans!”
Hearing that, Yua felt more and more that Tamaki couldn’t be forgiven anymore. Without hesitation, she raised her wakizashi high.
“We wouldn’t want to be like you!” The kunoichi shouted, thrusting her small sword into the demon’s face.
Tamaki let out a deafening shriek, then his face pressed to the floor again. His body wasn’t moving anymore either.<sub>.</sub>
“Don’t let your guard down! He could wake up at any moment!” Kurosaki warned his men, who started loosening their grip on the katanas.
And that invisible power radiated from the demon’s body a second time, throwing the people holding him back, including Elise’s dog. The swords that pierced his body also flew off like bullets being fired.
Yua fell quite far from the demon, near the musical instrument yers and Yamaya. However, they were not affected at all.
It was not difficult for Yua to get up. Her body still couldn’t feel the pain. However, the soldiers and leaders were knocked unconscious fromnding so hard. Mona alsoy motionless. Only Elise was still able to stand up, though with great difficulty, and it was apparent that she was in pain.
Yua looked at those people before finally fixing her eyes on Taka, who had three swords stuck in his body. The kunoichi froze with her mouth agape and her eyes wide.
There was no way that the man could still be alive.
Tamaki stood up, then let out a loud roar that was so terrible, like it came from another world. It was so terrifying that the roar made the musicians tremble, though their priestess was unaffected.<sub></sub>
Elise wasn’t affected by that either. She walked with a limp, but over time she was able to run toward the demon. The female warrior then pointed her sword forward, increasing her eleration.
However, the charging thrust attack was easily dodged by Tamaki. The demon caught the female warrior’s leg.
Yua flinched as Elise’s body was thrown far away.
The kunoichi thought, how can Elise still take the initiative to attack when the chances of them winning are very small? Is the female not afraid of that terrible figure?
“I remember, in the first mission, Elise ran away from her enemy, a giant goblin.” Raymund said with a quiver. “However, in the end, she returned because of her sense of responsibility to help people. Now she has be a true warrior.”
Yua checked the priestess and the musicians who were still performing the ritual. So, will these people be her responsibility?
Can she do that? During this time, she always pursued to be at the forefront of the race. She has persistence, but the state now is very different.<sub></sub>
She had to face such terrible monsters
Tamaki is still standing frozen, with her eyes glowing red. His mouth opened, and continued to inhale air. It should be a big chance to attack before the demon makes another move. However, Yua could only stare.
Now the demon was 12 feet tall, making it emit an aura of intimidation even more.
Meanwhile, Elise started to rise again. The sight made Yua couldn’t take it anymore. She looked away.
And that’s when she saw the small bamboo container given by Yamaya. It was a ce to store the pills that gave Yua the strength to fight.
It seemed she had no other choice.
Finally, Tamaki started walking again towards Yamaya and the musicians. Yua took the bamboo container and poured its contents into her mouth. Ignoring the immeasurable bitterness on his tongue, she swallowed four pills.
“You’re crazy, Yua.” Raymund hissed.
Several musical instrument yers who realized that widened their eyes.
The kunoichi felt a surge of energy instantly within her body. The sound of ritual musical instruments began to fade in her ears, but her vision became clearer.
And she felt she could beat the demon.
“Arrrgghhhh!!!” Yua screamed with all her might, then ran at a speed that the eyes could barely keep up with. She took out her small sword as well as a katana belonging to one of the guards.
Then, she jumped forward.
The red demon roared again as Yua shed its face.
Yua’s attacks didn’t stop there. The kunoichi kept moving, jumping from all directions, and shing at the demon non-stop. She elerates many times, making her almost like a moving blur.
Elise, who was watching that from a distance, could only freeze.
“You’d better just stay there, Elise,” Raymund muttered. “If you join in on the attack, you’re just a hindrance to Yua.”
Blood stters spread out in all directions like a fountain. Yua continued to sh at Tamaki’s body, legs, hands, face, and back. However, the demon hasn’t fallen yet.
“Enough!” The demon caught Yua’s head. Before the kunoichi could do anything, Tamaki threw her away.
But, like the demon earlier, Yua can flip in the air andnd smoothly.
“What the… Y-you are a monster!” Tamaki choked when the kunoichi approached her with her head down and unsteady steps like a zombie. Both of Yua’s hands were still holding the swords covered in blood.
“I never imagined that I would be able to see a demon so frightened like that.” Kurosaki, who was near Elise, straightened up while clutching her chest. He then chuckled with a heavy breath. “I don’t know if it’s because of the pill’s influence or because that kunoichi is a psychopath.”
