Krul came to a stone wall and scratched it with her nails, but there was no mark on the stone wall.
As expected, it's a bit tricky.
"Hey, anyone still breathing in there?"
Krul didn't hear any movement from inside.
Inside the wall.
"Left!"
Ghost Box King was sent flying by a punch from Shinya, while simultaneously dodging a sharp spike.
Ghost Box King wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked up, staring intently at Shinya.
Shinya said with a cheeky grin.
"Don't look at me with such a dangerous gaze; aren't I saving you?"
Ghost Box King didn't reply, but he secretly vowed in his heart that if he got out alive, he would hack Shinya into a thousand pieces.
At this time, the other demons were also doing their best to avoid the sharp spikes that could appear from the surroundings at any moment.
Currently, only Shinya and asuramaru had not been hit; the unluckiest was onikiri, who had been stabbed three times, though fortunately, none were in vital spots.
"Damn it, this wall is so hard. At this rate, we'll be trapped to death inside!"
Moonlight Rhyme had been taking every opportunity to attack a single point on the stone wall, but the wall would quickly repair itself every time.
byakkomaru suggested at this time.
"How about going underground?"
The demons thought about it and decided to give it a try.
And the most straightforward method was to attack the ground.
byakkomaru raised his hand and waved; a white tiger roared and pounced at the ground. Initially, the ruins and rubble were easily knocked aside, but at a certain depth, the white tiger let out an unwilling low growl and dissipated.
"No, there's another layer of stone slabs like this underground."
"There's no other way. asuramaru, focus on breaking the wall; we'll protect you!"
Ghost Box King was a bit annoyed; seeing that asuramaru was in the best condition, he figured the breaking efficiency should be much faster.
Everyone had felt the strength of this stone wall; it wasn't unbreakable, but with the interference of the attacks, there wasn't enough time to break it before the wall repaired itself.
While the demons were discussing, onikiri on the periphery seemed to sense something and slowly retreated to a part of the wall.
"Hey, onikiri, are you in there?"
After getting close to the wall, Yuichiro's voice rang out in onikiri's heart, though the connection was a bit fuzzy, they could manage to communicate.
Not only did the other demons pay little attention to him, but even if they noticed him standing by the wall, they would only think onikiri had been forced into a corner by the spikes.
"What's your situation? I'm not doing too well... so annoying!"
As he spoke, another spike grazed the skin on his waist; his self-healing speed was extremely slow.
Yuichiro poked his head out to look.
Kyle and Mika were already in a stalemate. Krul was working hard at smashing a point on the stone wall, but Alucard wasn't there, so the progress was pitiful.
Yuichiro briefly informed onikiri of the situation outside.
After hearing this, onikiri looked up and saw asuramaru walking toward a stone wall, and immediately stepped forward to stop him.
"Shorty, hit this wall."
onikiri pointed at another wall and said seriously.
Shinya was the first to jump out.
"We'll hit whichever one we want, what's it to you? If you don't want to help, don't cause trouble! I don't want to die yet."
Ghost Box King narrowed his eyes at onikiri, unsure of what he was thinking, but soon, Ghost Box King broke into a happy smile.
"I agree. I think this wall looks good too."
Although he didn't understand what onikiri meant, he simply wanted to go against Shinya.
asuramaru actually had a higher level of trust in onikiri, but since onikiri was inside with them, how did he get information about the other wall?
Moonlight Rhyme shouted impatiently at this time.
"Who care which wall it is, just move already!"
Both Moonlight Rhyme and byakkomaru were injured, and combined with not being as agile as Shinya, they were already struggling to defend.
onikiri also joined the group protecting asuramaru.
Soon, asuramaru went all out and began attacking the stone wall onikiri pointed at, but after a short while, he noticed something was wrong.
He felt that the Demonic Aura on the stone wall wasn't all going toward repairing the damage he caused; a portion seemed to be surging on the other side.
Someone else was attacking this wall from the outside!
Recalling the figure of Krul he had seen before, asuramaru had a guess and decisively abandoned the point he was currently attacking, moving to the point where the Demonic Aura was gathering on the opposite side.
Initially, Krul on the other side didn't realize someone was breaking the wall from the inside because her perception of Demonic Aura wasn't very strong.
But when asuramaru's attack point overlapped with hers, she clearly felt her brother's aura.
"Brother!"
Most of the gravity on Krul's face dissipated, and her movements didn't slow down at all.
"Asura Kannon!"
Feeling the time was right, asuramaru poured most of his Demonic Aura into this move. Several japanese sword condensed behind him, then merged into a single blade, crashing straight into the stone crater that hadn't had time to heal.
Krul on the other side seemed to have known beforehand and moved out of the way in advance.
Boom!
The stone wall broke upon impact. Almost everyone except asuramaru had suffered significant injuries; as if sensing a threat, the final attacks from the stone wall had been several times stronger than before.
After coming out, Moonlight Rhyme lay directly on the ground, facing the sky.
"Cough, cough, I'm done. I need to rest."
There were many holes in his body, some of which had almost cost him his life, but he was lucky enough not to die.
byakkomaru and Ghost Box King's situations weren't very good either.
After onikiri came out, he headed directly toward where Yuichiro was, grabbed him once he found him, and instantly fled.
"Hey, aren't we here to find Mika? I can feel him, he's nearby. onikiri, where are you taking me?!"
onikiri smacked his lips.
"Stop freaking thinking about it. That cat-eared Shorty is the Little Blondie you're looking for. He's already gone crazy. Go find someone else to save."
Mika was currently entangled with Kyle. When he discovered the trap he prepared had been broken, he immediately frowned, but seeing those demons, his expression softened quite a bit; they were basically crippled.
Just then, a streak of purple-black light caught his attention. He saw the purple light racing in one direction, scooping up a figure and running.
Looking closely, Mika's pupils shrank, and murderous intent erupted from his eyes.
"Courting death!"
Kyle thought Mika was flying into a rage because the trap was broken. Just as he was about to mock him with a few words, he was sent flying by a burst of momentum.
When Kyle stabilized himself and looked back, he found that Mika was already chasing after the receding onikiri at an incredible speed.
"Wok, is this what Luke calls 'exploding in a pinch' or 'not knowing how to play unless low on health'? If he had this strength, I would've been instakilled long ago. Is he playing with me?"
Mika's actions were naturally seen by the demons. Ghost Box King clutched his forehead and complained.
"It's over. The Demon King Transformation has deepened, his strength has undergone a qualitative change, and his emotions are gradually fading. This is getting a bit difficult."
Shinya clapped his hands and said with a smile.
"That's good then. We were already struggling, and now the King's power is even stronger. I'm leaving first. Let's disband."
Shinya turned to leave, but as if remembering something, he turned back to look at Ghost Box King.
"Can I sleep in the coffin for a bit?"
On Krul's side, she grabbed asuramaru's hand and was about to leave.
"Brother, let's go back. Do you still have to work for the Progenitor?"
Only in front of her brother would Krul use such a pleading tone.
asuramaru looked at his sister and said gently.
"Krul, we can't let Mika completely turn into a Demon King. Only this point..."
asuramaru didn't know how to explain, but his subconscious told him that no matter what the Progenitor's plan was, at the very least, Mika had to die at the hands of the Progenitor...
