Chapter 481 Servants, the Competition Is Getting Fiercer
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Hurricanes howled between sky and earth.
Countless gales gathered, transforming into a tangible barrier that instantly sealed the entire castle.
Bang!
The kimono-clad Cursed Spirit, caught off guard, crashed into it and couldn't help but let out a miserable howl.
"Word magic. This is the power of word magic!"
Ignoring the pain, the kimono-clad Cursed Spirit's pupils contracted violently.
Before it could make any other move...
The wind barrier rapidly contracted, trapping it inside, unable to move an inch.
"You're quite clever, running so decisively."
Ayato snapped his fingers, and the kimono-clad Cursed Spirit was pulled before him.
"But unfortunately, you're too weak."
"Y-you... are the God-slaying King?"
The kimono-clad Cursed Spirit's face was full of terror, struggling constantly. "P-please, spare my life."
"You recognize me?"
Ayato smiled slightly. "At least you're not completely stupid."
"But why should I spare your life?"
"I, I am useful to you."
The kimono-clad Cursed Spirit took a deep breath and gritted its teeth. "Not long ago, the Khaos Brigade sought my cooperation. They have a big plan."
Khaos Brigade.
Beside them, Shizuka and the others all leaned in to listen.
They knew very well...
This was a genuine terrorist organization, and also Master's enemy.
Many of the incidents they had encountered bore the other's shadow.
Only Dorothy was a bit confused.
But she followed her seniors' example.
Come to think of it, the Khaos Brigade had indeed sought cooperation with some fierce gods before.
A flicker of light appeared in Ayato's eyes. He said noncommittally, "Get to the point."
"I can tell you, but you have to promise not to kill me."
The kimono-clad Cursed Spirit stared into Ayato's eyes, afraid of angering him, and quickly said, "This matter concerns the lives of hundreds of millions of people. It's absolutely important."
"I promise you."
Ayato nodded.
That was too fast?
The kimono-clad Cursed Spirit was somewhat suspicious and was about to say something more, but felt the wind barrier squeezing.
As if it would crush it into meat paste.
"I'll tell you. I'll tell you everything."
The kimono-clad Cursed Spirit said fearfully. "It is said that the Khaos Brigade plans to unite with a group of fierce gods to completely sacrifice this country."
"And then?"
"I, I only know this much. They didn't tell me the specific plan steps."
Ayato twitched his mouth.
That was all? Were you kidding me?
But fine, it seemed he had learned something.
"Sacrifice the entire country?"
Beside them, Dorothy's face had already lost its color.
Although Shizuka and the others were calmer, they weren't much better.
No wonder they said it concerned the lives of hundreds of millions of people.
This was a not to be underestimated move.
This Khaos Brigade was simply insane.
"Yours, Hana."
Ayato casually waved his hand, and the kimono-clad Cursed Spirit flew towards Hana.
"Y-you promised not to kill me."
The kimono-clad Cursed Spirit's face was full of terror, its voice loud. "You can't break your word!"
"Yes, I didn't break my word."
Ayato's expression was strange. "After all, the person killing you isn't me?"
"You dare trick..."
Before the kimono-clad Cursed Spirit could finish, it stopped abruptly.
Hana's hand had pierced its chest.
Then!
The power of her Balance Breaker activated.
Boom!
Almost instantly.
The power within Hana's body began to boil.
Both her magic power and spiritual energy began to surge at an unbelievable rate.
Crack! Crack!
Faintly...
Hana felt the bottleneck to the Satan realm being forcibly broken.
On the other side.
The gazes of Yukino and Shizuka became somewhat complex.
Satan level.
Hana had become a high-level combatant among the servants.
Dorothy was also filled with excitement.
Such power... how mighty.
Didn't this mean that she also had hope of reaching this level?
A flicker of anticipation appeared in her eyes.
At the shrine.
A flash of light.
The figures of Ayato and the others appeared here.
Seiko and the others, who had been waiting impatiently, saw Ayato appear, and their eyes lit up.
"Master, why are you so late?"
"I was taking the newbie leveling up."
Ayato smiled. "Everyone, get to know her. She will also be a member of this shrine from now on."
Dorothy stepped forward and smiled. "Hello, everyone. I'm Dorothy Flamsteed."
"Please take care of me."
Chikage's movement stopped abruptly.
Well.
The competition had become fiercer again.
But she wouldn't lose.
"Master, I've used up my Blessing."
"Alright, I'll replenish it for you."
At the same time.
Yukino pulled Hana aside.
"Let's... talk."
