In just ten minutes or so, Gu Mo heard about the nearly twenty different illnesses that had occurred sporadically on the chronically ill Himura Kago, which was quite absurd indeed.
Perhaps this black history could be used to threaten her...
Wouldn’t it make stealing the Four Souls Jade easier in the future if this trump card is revealed? Presumably, Himura Kago would be so angry yet speechless, watching helplessly as the Four Souls Jade is snatched away.
"It’s coming..."
At this mont, the witch said softly.
Her gaze beca grave, glancing towards another direction outside the window.
The maliciously scheming Gu Mo froze for a mont, then as he reacted, he also felt the Nine-tailed Guardian Spirit attached to him becoming slightly restless, alerting him and guiding his attention to the sa direction.
Wait, this fast?
The next mont, the once noisy street outside suddenly beca so quiet you could hear a pin drop, as if the air had frozen.
"She... doesn’t know how to hide herself at all?" The witch appeared a bit stunned as she felt that massive Demon Qi rapidly approaching, suddenly erging from the edge of her Perception range, directly arriving over the street not far ahead.
"If she really lets him succeed, even the whole world in this era together wouldn’t be enough for her to fight, of course she wouldn’t think of hiding herself..."
Gu Mo’s mouth twitched; he too felt the movent of that Demon Qi and upon realizing the sudden disappearance of noise outside, it beca clear what was happening.
He jumped up, grabbing the Demon Sword placed beside the chair and rushed out, while sowhat feeling unsettled inside... Kaguya seed to be acting recklessly in this era; such a style of action is greatly disadvantageous for his side because she doesn’t care about anything and isn’t worried about causing destruction in the city, nor about how many innocents would be hard or die.
But he had no way to act like that; the witch’s Spiritual Power was surely far superior even to Maitreya’s grandfather who sealed Kaguya, but in such circumstances, she would inevitably be hampered.
So, this enemy is probably going to be extrely troubleso.
......
Turning back ti a little.
The setting was in a cold drink store at the street corner.
Under a sunshade umbrella, at a midsized round table, one boy and three girls, all middle school students, were sitting, discussing sothing. However, the tea party seed to be ending. The handso, tall and straight boy held the package in his arms as if ready to depart.
"I see, that’s really unfortunate, I hope Kago recovers soon, plus exams are coming up, her grades are in so danger..."
Saying this with worry, the boy sighed and then showed an apologetic smile, nodded at the three girls opposite him: "Thank you for talking with so much, but I should get going now, although I don’t know if it’ll work, going to ask around Mount Fuji first..."
"Ah? Are you really going, Hojo?"
"Yeah, that’s just too absurd, isn’t it?"
"It’s sothing that can’t be helped, it is a family tradition, and it must be completed by the current generation’s heir..." Hojo scratched his head and smiled wryly, "I can’t really defy it, anyway, Tokyo is close to Mount Fuji, and today is a holiday, so I might as well go see the scenery."
"I see..."
"It can’t be helped then."
The girls all verbally expressed feeling bad for him, but in their hearts, they were relieved; God knows how anxious they just were. Hojo wanted to know about Kago’s situation and insisted on inviting them for a drink here... But Kago and her boyfriend were in the café just down the street.
They were afraid the two groups might run into each other; if that happened, how heartbroken would Hojo be...
Several tis they wanted to gently advise the boy to give up, but seeing his genuine concern for Kago, they couldn’t bring themselves to tell such a hurtful truth, feeling truly conflicted.
"Alright, I’ll be off then, take your ti..." Hojo waved goodbye, smiling sunny and cheerful, but before he could finish speaking, a terrifying pressure made him feel suffocated.
His mind went blank, as if the air abruptly solidified, his pupils shrank, like everyone else around, subconsciously looked up following so instinct and found out that at so point, a figure had appeared, coldly gazing down at him from above.
That was the source of the terrifying pressure, quieting the entire street.
Adorned with a fan-shaped hair ornant, clad in purple robes, with hair cascading down her waist and flowing robes trailing behind, standing gracefully like a princess, she was a beauty whose gaze was imnsely cold and ruthless, devoid of any warmth or human aura, with her overall deanor exuding a sense of cruelty.
She casually surveyed below and instantly locked onto the quaint box in the boy’s arms, gently pressing her finger down.
A highly compressed and concentrated beam of light burst from her fingertip, instantly striking the ground.
With a trendous roar, a massive shock wave exploded across the entire street!
"Hmm?"
Letting out a doubtful sound, Kaguya hovered above the city, slightly squinting her eyes as a faint light curtain flickered over the street, like a transparent swirling shield, easily absorbing her recent attack, preventing any casualties or destruction.
Just monts before, nothing like that was there...
And even though she did not put much effort into it, to instantly cast a Barrier covering such a vast area below and withstand her attack so effortlessly...
"Huh, I thought all those with mana in this era were all dead..."
With a cold sneer, Kaguya’s gaze shifted to the witch who had just stepped out of the store in the distance.
anwhile, the people on the street finally reacted; they scread, shouted, or ran around in a panic like headless chickens, triggering widespread chaos, perhaps due to having less imaginative minds than future generations or the palpable pressure just now causing imnse subconscious fear.
In any case, no one at that mont thought any of it was fake, or had the courage to stay and watch.
Kikyo remained silent, picking up a Japanese Bow, nocking an arrow, and remotely locking onto the distant demon in the sky. Spiritual Power particles continuously flew towards the arrow, infusing it and creating an impressive special effect, causing the arrow to start glowing.
"...How foolish!"
Kaguya sneered coldly as an ancient mirror appeared floating in front of her.
The next instant, the witch released her fingers, letting out a magnificent arrow!
The Demon-Breaking Arrow whistled through the air, charged with powerful Spiritual Power, the rushing wind making her long hair billow, her clothing likewise, like flags blowing and swaying in a fierce wind.
