376. Country of Sakura, Cherin and the Seven Holy Swords [147]

Tremendous explosive sound echoed, and clouds of sand filled my field of view.

(I got him!)

Deal’s Venom Coat did not make it in time.

Taking a direct hit from Dark Shadow should have caused considerable damage.

(How will he respond…?)

As I concentrated on the clouds of sand for a while, I sensed an unnatural fluctuation of spiritual power.

(This feeling is… that attack!)

I saw through his intention instantly and immediately concentrated darkness on the black sword.

「First Sword – Flying Shadow!」

A jet-black slash flew while parting the clouds of sand and cut Deal’s body in half.

At the same time, the body turned into a purple liquid. And the “body” full of wounds appeared from behind it.

「You were thinking of making a poison clone to buy time to recover… but the same move won’t work twice.」

「B-Bro…」

He glared at me hatefully, gritting his teeth.

A number of deep wounds were carved onto his body. Dark red blood was constantly oozing out.

He shouldn’t be able to continue the battle anymore.

In other words, this is the end.

「Undo your poison of my friends right now and surrender quietly… If you do that, I will spare your life.」

I gave an “ultimatum” to Deal Reinstadt, a former Emperor’s Four Knight.
