Boom—
Exerting direct force to push the Raiden Shogun before him back repeatedly, Kaito spoke up:
"Alright, Raiden Shogun, are you planning to continue using your full strength to beat me to death, or shall we stop here?"
Kaito had observed every change in the Raiden Shogun's expression just now, so he wanted to know if She was preparing to attack without holding anything back.
If so, he would continue to play along; if not, he would stop here as well.
After all, there was no reason they absolutely had to fight, so stopping in time would be quite nice.
"Why didn't you use that bewitching ability of yours? Is it because it has no effect?"
Instead of answering Kaito's question, Ei asked one of Her own.
When they were face-to-face just now, She thought the other party would use that ability to bewitch people's minds, so She had been paying full attention to guard against it. However, She didn't feel anything, and She didn't know if he hadn't used it or if it simply had no effect on Her.
"I don't know. I think it probably has no effect."
Not expecting the Raiden Shogun to ask this, Kaito thought for a moment and offered this guess.
Since the opponent was a god after all, Kaito guessed that his current abilities couldn't yet produce such an effect on a deity.
Don't know?
This human...
Silently listening to Kaito's words, Ei felt his reaction was a bit too flat, as if the two were just chatting right now, not fighting.
Strange human...
In fact, the Raiden Shogun didn't really want to continue fighting right now. She wanted to bring Miko in to ask about the situation.
It was just that there was a problem: She didn't know if Miko was currently bewitched or not.
If she was, then asking would be in vain and completely meaningless. So...
Can I only continue to fight?
Only in this way...
Can I know the truth of the matter!
Thinking of this, Ei tightened Her grip on Her weapon again.
Wait!
Could it be that his bewitching ability takes effect slowly?
Suddenly thinking of this possibility, Ei was startled inwardly.
It had to be said, She rarely had this feeling, let alone having it brought to Her by a human.
I must...
Defeat him thoroughly!
Thinking this, the lightning coiling around the Musou Isshin became even more violent.
It seems She wants to fight me to the end...
Seeing the lightning on the Raiden Shogun's weapon becoming increasingly restless, Kaito knew what answer the Raiden Shogun had given to his question.
In that case, he naturally had to go all out as well.
Right...
If She is going to use the Musou no Hitotachi...
Then I will use the Might of An-Utu...
Hmm...
Although it's a fake...
It should be enough!
Accompanying Kaito's inner thoughts, a claymore appeared in his hand.
Afterwards, the claymore began to change its form, and raging flames coiled around it at that moment.
Pyro element...
Didn't he use Anemo just now?
And...
There is actually such immense energy on that weapon...
Looking at the giant sword in the young man's hands not far away, the Raiden Shogun frowned slightly.
But right now She didn't need to think too much; She just needed to slash that blade towards him.
At this moment, if anyone were here, their skin would surely be stung by the highly concentrated Electro element drifting in the air.
Apart from this, they would also be uncomfortably roasted by the constantly rising temperature.
Now!
This thought appeared in both their hearts simultaneously. Accompanied by the explosion of lightning and the rising of flames, Miko, who was outside, suddenly heard a violent explosion.
Boom—
What the hell???
She was originally outside thinking about what to do, but a loud bang and a massive shockwave startled her and sent her flying.
But soon, Miko stabilized herself in mid-air and quickly moved out of the shockwave's range.
Are they fighting inside?
Why is it so intense???
Looking at Ei's residence, which had already turned into ruins, Miko, hovering in mid-air, thought this with bewilderment.
Although she had guessed this earlier, she hadn't expected it to be so intense that it would even dismantle the buildings outside.
But if that's the case...
Does this mean that guy Kaito won't be unilaterally crushed by Ei?
That is to say...
Kaito can actually manage to survive when facing Ei?
Hmm?
That is...
Just as Miko was thinking about various things, she suddenly saw two figures confronting each other in the air not far away after the dust settled.
It must be those two...
Thinking of this, Miko hurriedly flew towards them.
This human...
Actually possesses such strength...
Looking at the young man opposite Her with a grave expression, Ei hadn't expected his strength to actually be able to contend with Her.
Even though She had unleashed the Musou no Hitotachi, She still couldn't defeat him. In fact, that flame just now almost burned Her.
"Stop fighting, you two."
Just then, Miko flew between the two and shouted.
Miko...
Looking at the appearing Miko, Ei really wanted to ask where on earth she had found this human.
But there was no helping it; now was not the appropriate time to ask this question.
"Ei, I wasn't used by his ability, don't think nonsense."
After her various thoughts just now, Miko guessed that Ei was most likely suspecting she had been bewildered by Kaito using that kind of ability, which was why the scene just now had occurred.
Although she had previously been wondering if Kaito had used that ability to make her take off her clothes or something, she still firmly believed she hadn't been bewildered.
That guy Kaito had always acted indifferent.
If she had truly been bewildered, Kaito wouldn't need to act like that.
And based on her years of experience reading light novels, if such a thing had really happened, she might already be raising a child by now. But the reality was that nothing had happened.
"Perhaps this is the sin of bearing a treasure."
Before the Raiden Shogun could say anything, Kaito, who was behind Miko, spoke this line.
Honestly, if he had known such a thing would happen, he wouldn't have shown this ability for anything.
Right now, no matter how he explained, it wouldn't work, even if Miko did it.
After all, if Miko tried to explain, a single claim that she had been bewitched by him would render the explanation useless.
Sigh...
What a troublesome ability...
Thinking of this, Kaito sighed silently.
He hoped that later, the Raiden Shogun wouldn't say that he had bewitched Her as well.
