92. Half-step demon king? Invincible in the field? It's not even a trick.
Gunshots, explosions, and chaotic flames completely lit up the night sky.
But standing outside the courtyard wall, I couldn't detect any movement inside the house. All movements were blocked by the barrier.
"Buzz~"
The phone vibrated.
Fujiwara Izaya looked at the number and put the receiver to his ear.
"Hello--"
The sound of tomorrow's fragrance came.
"Senior, what on earth are you doing——"
"The whole day, everyone around you has been talking about you, saying what kind of monster you are, and saying that you are going to go on a killing spree. What is going on? Asuka is worried to death. Senior, please speak -"
She caught a glimpse of a small man passing by from a distance, and Fujiwara Izaya said to her: "Sorry, I'm in a hurry, I'll call you later."
"No! You need to tell Asuka clearly now what you are doing..."
"I'm in a hurry to send someone to be reincarnated."
"What?"
"beep--"
Simply hanging up the phone, Fujiwara Izaya glanced at the caller casually and indifferently.
The little man, less than 1.4 meters tall, was wearing a black and gray kimono. His clothes were fluttering, and the demonic aura was exuding domineeringly like a shock wave. The huge and terrifying pressure surged toward the courtyard where the battle was taking place, like a galaxy pouring down from the sky.
.
Just then.
boom!
A yellow wall spread in all directions, enveloping both warring parties, and the scene between heaven and earth changed, from a dark and humid courtyard to a Gobi Desert with gravel flying in the sky.
At this moment, the actions of both warring parties came to an abrupt halt.
In the silent space, you can seem to hear the beating of other people's hearts.
"Young Master!"
Dark Crow flew up and stood in front of Fujiwara Izaya with a knife, as if facing a formidable enemy.
"Back off!"
There was unquestionable majesty in the voice.
Dark Crow hesitated for a moment, sheathed his sword and stepped aside.
Fujiwara Izaya walked in the air and walked slowly towards the yellow sand in front of him.
The space we are currently in is a field. A strong man with king-level strength can use divine power or demonic power to construct a space that is beneficial to him in a short time, and set rules that are beneficial to him in the space. This will
It’s the field!
The domain is the builder's home turf.
Here, every attack of the builder will be greatly strengthened, either the move will neutralize or the move will have a critical hit increase; here, the enemy will suffer one or even multiple negative effects set by the builder.
The influence greatly reduces one's own strength and falls into a desperate situation.
The party with a domain versus the party without a domain is almost a crushing victory.
However, the field is not so easy to expand.
This kind of operation, which is equivalent to a fatal kill, consumes a lot of energy reserves.
Generally speaking, only king-level and respected-level experts can develop a complete domain. If they are not strong enough to be king-level, even if they understand the techniques to expand the domain, their own energy will not be enough to support the construction of the domain.
Does this mean that all kings are ants? Izaya Fujiwara was thinking about this question. He came to the head of the little man and looked down from a high position. He saw a dog demon with the head of a dog and the body of a human body.
His strength is very good, and he has half-stepped into the Demon King realm.
And the dog head is a silly Shiba Inu head, which looks quite cute from a distance.
But the dog's expression is not so friendly.
He is sneering.
It's the kind of sneer a dog makes when it catches a mouse.
"You're in my territory."
The dog demon emphasized this matter in the first sentence he spoke.
"Well," Fujiwara Izaya looked down with disdain, "then what?"
That seemingly teasing tone, with indescribable arrogance, didn't take him seriously at all.
The dog demon felt extremely depressed.
Damn it!
Obviously my strength is much higher than him!
He is obviously trapped in his own field!
Why!
Why does he still look down on me so much!
Does he think that with the blood of the royal family, he can do whatever he wants!
It's a pity that Fujiwara Izaya can't hear the dog demon's heart.
Otherwise, he will definitely answer yes.
In Japan, there is no such thing as emperors taking turns.
Here, a strong bloodline can determine your upper limit to the greatest extent.
This is true in the human world, and even more so in the monster world.
Fujiwara Izaya, who carries the legacy of Emperor Sotoku, is firmly ranked among the top three in the demon clan. Wherever he goes, thousands of demons will surely kneel to greet him, even if he only has the strength of a general. If he
Whatever he wants to do, he only needs to raise his arms, and there will be thousands of monsters to help him, even if he only has the strength of a general.
And this dog demon.
Not to mention that he is still just a few steps away from becoming the Demon King. Even if he is the most powerful Demon King, his status and reputation in the Youkai clan cannot even reach the level of one wing of the other seven Tengu, let alone Fujiwara.
Izaya, the king of tengu, competed.
"I'm going to kill you!" The dog demon raised his head with burning eyes and his voice trembled.
Fujiwara Izaya's eyes were unmoved and he said coldly: "Even if you are the real demon king, you can't kill me."
"Hehe..." The dog demon smiled gloomily, "I have been observing you when you were fighting Master Umibo just now."
"Watching your companions die without even saying a word to stop him," Fujiwara Izaya sneered, "Such a cowardly performance, do you deserve to appear in the eyes of the king?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was an uproar in the field.
The spider monsters who were supposed to be their opponents, with unspeakable excitement, all looked at the white hunting clothes in the air. They heard the friction sound of the hunting clothes being blown by the greedy evening wind, and their white wings spread out against the wind, sparkling.
Reflecting the shimmering light.
This scene is like a god descending into the world.
Under the flowing gravel, a spider that had sneaked into the yard from the beginning and was carefully hidden rolled its eyes.
She thought to herself, I am so stupid.
Why are you worried about this brat's safety and risking your life to see this brat show off!
The dog demon clenched his fists and listened to the voices talking about him in his ears.
He couldn't drag it out any longer, he thought to himself, he must get rid of Fujiwara Izaya as soon as possible, immediately. He has not yet become the true demon king, and his demon power is not enough to support the domain for too long. He must use all his strength to kill this arrogant big man in one blow.
Take down the Tengu - only death can end the arrogance of the royal family!
"Your strength is just that of a general for the first time. You were able to kill Master Umibo just because he was arrogant and exposed his weaknesses to you. Your greatest reliance is your defense, which is comparable to the Demon King. I see it very clearly.
Clearly. It just so happens that the rule in my field is to lower the opponent's defense."
The dog demon said this and took steps forward.
step.
Two steps.
A hissing sound.
Flying into the air, he came face to face with Fujiwara Izaya.
"After your defense is weakened, you can't block my full blow."
As he spoke, the dog demon's clothes bulged, and the demonic energy all over his body condensed in his palms.
Has the defense been reduced... Fujiwara Izaya took the opportunity to open the system and check his attributes.
[Name: Fujiwara Izaya]
[Race: Demon]
[Strength: General level]
[Attack: b+]
[Defense:b+]
[Speed: a++]
[Auxiliary:e]
[Active skills: none]
[Passive talent: Mountain God’s protection, Son of the Wind.]
[Have Shikigami: Yuki Onna, Luo Xinfu]
[Props: Evil Purification Pearl, Shadow Show Knife]
【Points: 2000】
Hmm.
It was originally an A+ level defense, but it became a B+ level, suddenly losing a big level.
Furthermore, Izaya Fujiwara cut it off without him noticing.
So scary.
The idea of being invincible in the field is really not an exaggeration.
Fujiwara Izaya suddenly looked forward to his own field.
With two inheritances, he can naturally develop two different fields. Wouldn't that be double invincibility?
Looking at him lost in thought, the dog demon's eyes showed a fierce light, and the corners of his mouth twisted up mockingly. He looked at the demons on the ground and then at him. After a moment, a strange voice sounded: "What royal family... is gone.
Defense, I'm scared to death..."
"Young Master!"
Dark Crow suddenly shouted.
Boom!
The dog demon pushed his hands forward, and the huge demon power suddenly shot out.
Fujiwara Izaya remained silent,
"...So what?" he asked back.
"you……"
The dog demon frowned.
The bright and astonishing light magnified instantly.
brush--
The dazzling light swallows up the entire domain space.
At this moment, time has lost its meaning in the field. Touch, vision, and hearing have all lost their meaning at this moment. In the field of vision, there is only endless light, light, light...
Both sides of the monsters present had to hold up their monster shields to resist the coming shock wave.
Even Kawashima Miji, who was hiding under the gravel, had to close her eyes and open the demon shield to protect herself while worrying.
In this light.
The dog demon suddenly trembled.
In his final vision, the last scene he saw was Fujiwara Izaya's arrogant and cold eyes, and his figure that disappeared in an instant.
Danger!
An unprecedented chill climbed up the dog demon's back.
Unspeakable fear and despair welled up in his heart. At this moment, he seemed to understand just how terrifying the opponent he encountered was, and how terrifying the situation in front of him was.
The second before the dog demon attacks.
A clanging sound.
Fujiwara Izaya took out the Kage Hide Sword from the system space.
[Props: Shadow Show Knife]
[Rating: Spiritual Weapon]
[The sword of the daimyo Date Masamune is known as the most famous sword of the Warring States Period. The blade is red, and the shadow it casts in the sunlight is very slender, hence the name Kagehide.]
[Additional status: Armor-breaking (when facing non-defense-specialized enemies of the same realm, ignore the opponent's defense)]
[The user obtains status: Assassination (self speed increases by a small level)]
The blade is unsheathed and held in the hand.
A system prompt popped up in front of Fujiwara Izaya.
【Speed:a++→Speed:s】
He flapped his wings lightly.
The speed reached its peak in an instant, sweeping the ground and appearing behind the dog demon.
"sayonara!"
In the light that filled the sky, Fujiwara Izaya slashed forward with his sword based on his perception of the scent of the dog demon.
"呲——"
There was a sound like scratching paper.
The body of the dog demon remains motionless.
The sense of danger comes and goes just as quickly.
The moment the light disappeared, he no longer felt any danger.
It's even a little warm.
Because this royal family actually said goodbye to him.
It made him feel quite ashamed.
Am I worthy?
The dog demon asked himself in his heart.
How can one be so virtuous...
You can die at the hands of a royal family...
after all.
I'm just a despicable dog demon.
All kinds of thoughts floated through my mind, and before I could say the words "I surrender", a dog's head fell to the ground and rolled around for several times, and finally stood still.
Blood splattered out.
The headless body twitched violently several times, and the body fell to the ground with a thud.
The dog demon is dead.
The realm dissipated, the yellow sand disappeared in an instant, and the surrounding scene returned to the ancient house.
"Is there anyone resisting now?" Fujiwara Izaya asked condescendingly.
Although there was still a cynical smile on his face, the faint murderous intent in his eyes suppressed him, making him look very cold and heartless.
The remaining spider demons turned pale with fright, and fell to the ground with their legs and feet paralyzed. They had no more thoughts of resisting. Under the Kodachi swords of the Crow Tengu, the spider demons were decapitated one after another, and it was over.
They are evil-doing monsters...
Tsuchiya Kazuma curled up, twitching slightly, and vomited blood.
The heavy rain continued, and streaks of lightning pierced the night sky.
Dark Crow held the knife and walked towards him.
There was no time left for him to speak, and he ended up killing like this tonight.
Kawashima Miki looked at Fujiwara Izaya in the air, her eyes were dazed for a moment, and then she quickly turned around and left. She didn't want to be discovered by him here, otherwise this bad guy would definitely make fun of her again.
In the chaos, Fujiwara Izaya followed her in the sky, flying slowly.
When she climbed close to the courtyard wall, Kawashima Miji raised her head and forgot about the solid barrier, and complained softly.
"Really..."
"The fight has been completed, why haven't you removed the barrier yet?"
"asshole……"
"Woo... My body is soaked. I want to go home and take a shower..."
"--hateful."
"Fujiwara Izaya is such a big bastard!"
"Everything is clearly ready, but you didn't tell me at all."
"He is plotting against me!"
"Wow, I'm so stupid, I didn't realize it until now."
"Is it possible that everything he said is false?"
"It's a lie to ask me to be Mrs. Fujiwara!"
"I actually believed his lies."
"Woooo..."
“It feels like I’m giving it away for free!”
"Ah ah ah, Kawashima Miji, you are so stupid——"
A bolt of lightning fell and thunder rumbled.
Kawashima Miji looked around, trying to find an exit.
In the courtyard where the circuit was damaged, the surroundings were dark, with only a few faintly flickering lanterns still on. In the pouring rain, in her spider form, her vision was almost that of a blind person.
She couldn't see anything in front of her, but she could vaguely see a black pillar where the darkness extended. She thought that after climbing up the pillar, she could climb down the wall from a high place, so she listened to the rumble that echoed through the sky.
The thunder began to rise breathlessly.
Keep running and crawling.
Climbing in the heavy rain, crawling in the dark night, crawling under the lightning.
Kawashima Miji, you are the most beautiful. Even if the road ahead doesn’t lead to where, you can’t be stopped... Hey, why isn’t it raining?
Turning her blurred vision, Kawashima Miji glanced at the situation next to her. The rain was pouring all around her, and lightning struck from time to time, causing the air to shake violently.
It's still raining heavily.
So, why is there no rain here...
And...why is that barrier so close?
Looking at the yellow demonic cover that was approaching, Kawashima Miki thought of a possibility.
Her long and thin spider legs stepped on it hard.
Um.
Soft.
It's not a pillar at all.
Kawashima Miji raised her head cautiously, and a flash of white drifted from the corner of her eyes.
In this dark night when light seemed to disappear from the world, the heavy rain continued to fall all around. At the end of the endless night, on the dark other side, she saw two golden light spots, emitting a dazzling light above her head.
of light.
Um.
very good.
This is a pair of eyes.
Those are the golden pupils of the Daitengu.
"Haha... I'm so smart, I guessed it right away." Kawashima Miji's heart trembled, and she said hoarsely with a trembling voice: "Uh, um... I was just passing by, and I didn't come here because I was worried about you...
…”
Fujiwara Izaya looked at the spider that was only as big as a thumb and crawled on his trouser leg.
Slowly, he reached down and placed his hand in front of her.
"..."
Kawashima Meiji blinked, and her small eyes gradually shone with light.
Perhaps because she thought the spider looked too ugly, she jumped down from Fujiwara Izaya's trousers, looked at him once she recovered, and then quickly looked away.
Fujiwara Izaya saw that the side of her face was red.
"Obviously spiders don't even wear clothes," he looked at Kawashima Miji's nightgown and asked doubtfully, "Why do they have an extra layer of clothes after they become human?"
"snort!"
Kawashima Meiji snorted coldly.
While her eyes were slightly lowered, she pulled the hem of her nightgown and squeezed her two slender, smooth legs together.
"Let me think about it," Izaya Fujiwara looked at her feet without shoes and asked in surprise, "could it be that my wife slipped out behind me as soon as I went out?"
"..."
Being exposed by him at once, Kawashima Miji hugged her shoulders and stared motionlessly at the rain falling from the eaves next to her. It seemed that the transparent rain was particularly beautiful today, and she could never get tired of looking at it.
"Young Master!"
At this time, Dark Crow came from behind carrying a waterproof bag.
Kawashima Meiji looked back and found out that it was the crow that had laughed at her this morning. Her face suddenly turned cold: "What kind of servants are there, there are just the same kind of subordinates, these two perverts!"
"Hey, how can you, a spider, talk!"
Dark Crow was immediately unhappy.
It's okay to scold him, but he will never allow it to be scolded by the young master.
"Dog!" Fujiwara Izaya kicked his subordinate's calf and said calmly: "Call me Madam."
As soon as these words came out, Kawashima Meiji couldn't help but tighten her lips.
In the night, her face softened slightly, and cute and charming dimples appeared on her cheeks, just like a love-minded girl waiting for her sweetheart to confess.
Dark Crow bowed respectfully and saluted: "Hello, madam!"
"uh-huh!"
Kawashima Meiji is even happier.
First he hummed subconsciously, and then he hummed reservedly.
The smile blooming on her face at this moment is like an epiphyllum blooming in the dark night, which is the most beautiful thing in the world.
Fujiwara Izaya took the waterproof bag from Dark Crow, then stretched out his hand towards Kawashima Miki: "Let's go home."
"..."
Kawashima Meiji was stunned for a moment, and her face suddenly felt hot.
Looking closely at Fujiwara Izaya's outstretched hand, she hesitated for a moment, then quietly and timidly stretched out her hand, and was held by Fujiwara Izaya, and then... she held it firmly back as if she would never let go.
