Chapter 98: Chapter 98 – Retreating Hero Faction

“Kubinashi, Masaomi!” I shouted at both of them and lowered Nenekirimaru as my body become hazy.

“Don’t hold back and kill them.”

As soon as I said that, my body melted into thin air. I ran towards Cao Cao who held his spear in the distance.

As I ran toward him, Cao Cao’s spear blade emitted light and he swept it in front of him, creating a flying slash.

I ducked to dodge it and made my way toward him. When I reached his back, I raised Nenekirimaru above my head and swung it down with both of my hands.

However, my attack created a wind that was able to be felt by Cao Cao. He instantly turned back and blocked my attack with his spear.

When our weapon interlocked, Cao Cao said.

“Cakkaratana.”

I had a bad feeling about his technique, so I used my Sacred Gear almost at the same time on my blade.

“My blade will be unbreakable.”

Our power clashes, creating a tremor to the area of our surroundings.

Cao Cao seemed to be surprised when he saw that my blade wasn’t destroyed. I grinned and pulled my hands before sending a kick aimed at his stomach.

He wasn’t able to react to my kick and was blown away a few meters. I didn’t miss this chance and accumulate Senjutsu energy on my blade and used Tsuki Giri.

A horizontal flying slash was sent towards Cao Cao who was blown away. But, he was somehow able to stop himself mid-air and then blocked the flying slash with his spear.

Unlike earlier when he blocked my slash with his spear, this time the flying slash was sent back to me.

‘Damn it! Fucking cheat Sacred Gear!’ I cursed in my mind and cut the flying slash with Nenekirimaru.

Cao Cao was prepared for that. He hid behind the flying slash that was sent back to me and thrust his spear as soon as I cut the flying slash.

His spear impaled my body, but it just melted in a black cloud of smoke. My real body has long since moved, I had predicted his move and move behind him.

I thrust my Nenekirimaru, aiming at his back, and was able to injure him slightly before he moved away at fast speed.

He stood in the sky, levitating without any wings. I mustn’t let him rest, so I kicked the ground and approached Cao Cao as I created fireballs using my Youjutsu.

The fireballs flew faster than me and reached Cao Cao first. He spun his spear and blocked all the fireballs, but I just used these fireballs to stall him for a while.

To increase my speed, I created a foothold in the sky using my Youjutsu and kicked it once again. This time, on top of using Shin: Kyouka Suigetsu, I used Touki too to further enhance my strength.

“Die.” I said in a cold tone and sent another slash at Cao Cao.

Once again, True Longinus’s tip was emitting light and Cao Cao pointed it at me.

A white beam of light was shot from the tip of the spear. It reached me in less than a second, but that was it. It hit my fake body and just shot towards the ground, creating a large explosion.

My real body appeared right beside Cao Cao and I focused all my Senjutsu aura on my blade.

“Tsuki Giri.”

I swung Nenekirimaru from the left to the right, aiming at Cao Cao’s arm. My slash was connected this time as he had no time to pull his spear.

Cao Cao's right arm was severed and he shouted in pain. He was not able to hold his position and fell from the sky.

From the ground, I saw Jeanne shout and jump to the sky. Kubinashi was about to stop her, but Heracles punched him away and blocked his vision.

They looked like they were about to run, so I rushed towards Cao Cao and concentrated Senjutsu on my blade once again.

“Tsuki Giri.” I sent another slash, but this time purple fog appeared in front of me and my slash disappeared into nothingness.

The fog surrounded me and blocked my vision. My Fear somehow didn’t affect the fog, so I cut the fog with Nenekirimaru a few times until finally the fog wasn’t able to retain its power and disappeared.

But, when I was able to escape from the fog, I couldn’t feel any energy from the Hero Faction’s members.

“Damn it, they escaped? They escaped from me?!” I looked around the area and clicked my tongue.

How, why, more importantly, that Longinus was troublesome. My senses were a mess inside that fog, and my Senjutsu wasn’t able to detect anything.

The story was different if I was outside the fog. I could cut it without any problem.

“Coward. A hero never escapes from their enemy, and they called themselves heroes?”

I canceled my technique and landed on the ground.

Kubinashi approached me as he held his cheek that was punched by Heracles earlier.

“I’m sorry, Riku-sama. I am at fault for not being able to stop that girl.”

I looked at Kubinashi and placed my right hand on his shoulder.

“No, it was my fault. I underestimate the power of that Sacred Gear and I thought I had canceled it. To think that he was able to recover it that fast, it’s my miscalculation.”

Masaomi who fought Siegfried earlier approached us while holding another sword in his hand. I looked at him and smiled when I saw the sword that was in his hand.

“He escaped, Riku-sama. But, I think I was able to deal something to him.” Said Masaomi as he smiled.

He extended his left hand that held an unknown sword to give it to me.

I took the sword and raised it to the sky.

“Well, at least we got a demon sword. Gram was it, a sword with dragon slayer properties. This will be useful to us.”

I dismissed Nenekirimaru and give Gram back to Masaomi.

“Hold onto it for now. I will try to bond with it later. I think they escaped to the Underworld, and I know someone who had a lot of information about Underworld.”

I grinned as I looked at Masaomi and Kubinashi.

“I see. So, Riku-sama, what should we do for now?” Asked Kubinashi as he looked around the area.

“Because I think we destroyed more than we thought.”

Right, the shrine was cut in half, the ground was gouged here and there.

I touched my chin and looked at the sky.

“Well, let’s go to a bar. Let’s ignore this.”

We can put the blame to Hero Faction later. And my raid towards the Hero Faction was over with me cutting Cao Cao's right arm. At least we were able to decrease their fighting power and got Gram on top of that.
