Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 858

Su Chang looked relaxed, and her energy and spirit became even more restrained, reaching an indescribable level.

She wasn't worried about her husband at all.

After all, her husband had said that he was the best at escaping, and she believed him completely.

Given this, she should focus more on herself.

On the battlefield, you only need to focus on yourself.

The right thing to do is not to cause trouble for your husband or others!

And Kousaka Kyosuke?

Upon arriving at Arakawa, he immediately saw a densely packed army of sea monsters on the river, seemingly boundless.

A huge ghost ship floated in the sky, and a horned demon standing on the ship held a strange magatama weapon, looking down at Kousaka Kyosuke with an arrogant expression.

"This time, I won't give you another chance to play tricks."

"Then tell me, is it fair that a few of us can hold off a whole bunch of you?"

Kyosuke Kousaka is a master of empty talk.

It's wartime, why are you still talking about conspiracies and tricks? What kind of innocent act is this?

"Heh... Issue my order: all units, advance!"

Ōtakemaru laughed heartily and, without hesitation, sent his sea monster army to charge.

At least several thousand sirens, exuding murderous intent, marched forward in perfect unison.

Kyosuke Kousaka's eyelids twitched.

This is why he is so wary of the Sea Kingdom.

The ants kill the elephant.

This is not just talk.

"Let's encourage each other, everyone." Kousaka Kyosuke sighed inwardly, without looking at the several Onmyoji, warriors, and water spirits behind him.

With only three hundred, the number seems insignificant compared to the thousands.

Importantly, neither side is weak.

No one is much worse than anyone else.

Therefore, the one with the larger quantity naturally wins.

"Kagura, Suyi Sushang, and Princess Goldfish will arrive with their people, but it will take a little while..."

Kousaka Kyosuke secretly thought.

Honestly.

He had no choice but to accept this. Compared to the sea monsters of the Sea Kingdom who could move swiftly on water, it was naturally slower for those of them living on land to unite.

Why not live on the shore? This is because it would consume too much manpower and resources, and would also give others the opportunity to wipe out the entire operation.

It would be more practical to set up a powerful barrier that can last for a period of time.

"Come on, Onmyoji!"

Ootakemaru laughed loudly and charged straight at Kousaka Kyosuke.

Kyosuke Kousaka went to meet him without hesitation.

Realizing that he couldn't break through Ōtakemaru's defenses in a short time, he didn't waste his efforts.

Having experienced the power of Ōtakemaru using the Yasakani no Magatama, he knew very well that he could only cause Ōtakemaru a little harm at most, so it was better to hold Ōtakemaru back.

As for the other sirens' army?

Kyosuke Kousaka could only leave the matter to fate.

boom!

Thunder rumbled across the sky!

Amidst the astonishing clash of swords, a violent gust of wind swept and blew in all directions.

Kyosuke Kousaka, having retrieved his sword from his spatial storage, officially engaged Ōtakemaru in battle.

Not long after that.

Just as the barrier set up on the shore was about to be broken, Kagura, Su Yi Su Chang, Kingyo-hime, and others finally arrived.

The group of people who were speeding along were not slow.

The delay was due to the team leader, but even so, it didn't take much of the others' energy. Instead, it made everyone hold their breath.

"kill!"

"guard!"

The sounds of battle, no less powerful than those of the siren army, rang out.

As Kousaka Kyosuke listened to the fierce shouts of battle, he remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was becoming increasingly unsettled.

Many of his relatives were among those inside.

Although they are not very close, and don't even know each other very well.

But the wives knew each other...

When those men die, won't their wives be heartbroken?

As Kousaka Kyosuke thought about these things, ripples spread across his heart once again.

"You should know that I will not stop until I have conquered Arakawa."

During the battle, Ōtakemaru confidently issued a declaration.

"hehe."

That's how Kyosuke Kousaka responded.

"Are you trying to convey through words that the Sea Kingdom will stop at nothing to invade Arakawa?"

Why did you do this?

How could Kyosuke Kosaka not know?

That is to get Kyoto to send more troops to Arakawa, thus weakening the troops in other parts of Kyoto.

They really know a lot about the intrigues and tricks of war.

If you haven't played the game or know the storyline, you would also be fooled at first.

boom!

Sparks flew everywhere, and swords clashed once more, unleashing a fierce battle.

Why aren't you using fire?

"You want to see?"

"It's unusable?"

"I'll show you."

Boom boom boom~

Suddenly surrounded by countless chains of flame, Kousaka Kyosuke dashed and teleported in front of Ōtakemaru.

Seeing that Kousaka Kyosuke was using the same explosive power technique as yesterday, the powerful Ōtakemaru was already prepared. With a thought, he briefly activated the divine power of the sacred artifact, the Yasakani no Magatama.

buzz~

In an instant, the profound and mysterious energy enveloped Ōtakemaru's entire body.

The next moment, Kousaka Kyosuke, who had grabbed Ōtakemaru, ignored the clinging, bone-deep force in his hand and dragged Ōtakemaru in another direction!

"I'll show you everything!"

Kyosuke Kosaka said coldly.

He held on tightly to Ōtakemaru, his entire body erupting in flames that shot towards the vast army of sea monsters.

Flames billowed up!

Kyosuke Kosaka struck like a cannonball, trailing a long trail of flame.

Countless sirens were roasted to dust in the blink of an eye...

"You bastard!!"

Otakemaru shouted angrily.

Seeing how Kosaka Kyosuke so maliciously delayed him while simultaneously killing countless of his comrades, his heart was filled with boundless rage!

The divine power of the eight-foot-long magatama held tightly in his hand surged even more violently!

Kyosuke Kosaka could clearly feel the same sensation that the Kusanagi sword had caused to corrode his body.

Let go?

Letting go is the right thing to do.
