Something happened.

The black light was blocked by a thick and durable spiritual energy barrier! It was taking the form of a magic circle that looked like a flaring sun.

"This barrier… it can't be!" Haru was pleased as he was shocked. He turned his head to the side and saw a woman with jet black hair and a sun hairpin. She was dressed in a Japanese priest's robe. She looked holy, pure, and bright. No brighter than the sun.

"Hikari…" Haru softly muttered. Slightly moving his vision to her side, he noticed a man wearing a black masquerade mask. 

Who is he? Haru asked himself with a frown but he did not have the time to care about that. He hurriedly approached the woman.

"Yeanne! Are you okay?" Haru asked with great concern.

The girl, Yeanne, opened her eyes as she realized she was well and still kicking. She silently heaved a sigh of relief, turned her head to Hikari, and nodded with a smile as she expressed her gratitude and replied to Haru's concern.

"I'm okay, Haru but that can't be said to the others," her words to the end became low as she looked at her dying friends.

One was lying on the ground, another one on a puddle, another one in a deep crater. Their condition was pitiful.

Haru's lips tightened upon the sight. He then retracted his gaze to Armageddon, the latter was looking at Narukami in shock.

Haru slightly creased his forehead in a frown.

"You've advanced?" Armageddon asked as he was in disbelief and shocked to the core.

Narukami simply nodded. His expression was stolen once again and he was disappointed but he kind of expected this.

It lasted longer than before.

"Unbelievable, amazing. This is the first time I've seen a human advance so quickly," Armageddon said as his tone filled with a bit of envy and praise.

"But, that doesn't mean you can beat me," Armageddon added with an arrogant smile before it vanished in the next moment.

"Despair Technique: Dark Lands!" Armageddon's voice rumbled like thunder. Coming out of His body, darkness spread as it engulfed everything in its way.

Narukami and the others turned blind. They could not feel anything and their senses were useless. It was a terrifying experience for ordinary people but for them, they still have their calm albeit a bit anxious.

They've lost their senses after all. They were in the most vulnerable state and should there be an attack, they could not dodge it.

"What should we do?" Haru pondered and looked at Narukami with curious looks before shifting his line of sight. 

"Hikari," Narukami called her name nonchalantly and Haru glared at him. Narukami was perplexed but did not bother.

The reason why he glared at him was that Hikari was quite popular and respected in the Blessed circle. She was talented, beautiful, and powerful. Everyone admired her and due to that, no Blessed dared to hate her.

For they were afraid to be an enemy of the public.

Hikari bit her thumb and blood spurted out. Quickly afterward, her blood glowed in a golden light.

"Light Blood Art: Perish!" Hikari said out loud. The blood exploded as it extinguished the darkness, returning the world to its original state.

"Tsk, Amaterasu's Blessed huh. What bad luck. Human, you've advanced yet why do you bring a powerful helper? Don't you want to fight me with your new power?" Amaterasu taunted.

Narukami knew exactly what Armageddon was planning and not going to fall for it.

"Do you think I'm that dumb, Armageddon? You're a god and you want me to fight you one on one? Are you okay? Does your head hit something?" Mocked Narukami calmly as he poked his head with his index finger.

Haru and Yeanne were stunned. Even they could not mock Armageddon like that. He was a terrifying evil deity! If he was enraged, even if He was in a vessel. The outcome might be worse than now!

Is this mysterious person aware of that? They probably thought.

Armageddon smiled as he frankly said with a mocking smile "well it's worth a try."

"Aren't you being honest? What's wrong? Are you going to leave?" Narukami casually asked.

"It will be boring if I leave without leaving a spectacular show," Armageddon said as He raised His hand to the air.

"Everyone, prepare yourselves!" Haru warned and Yeanne hastily nodded.

Above Armageddon's palm, a dark purple magic circle with a sinister vibe to it was formed. It gradually increased in size before covering the sky.

"Hikari, isn't this bad?" Narukami blurted out. He did not know what Armageddon was trying to do but he did know his danger senses tingling and his instinct told him to run.

"Yeah, this is bad." Hikari nodded. Her voice was chill as if what was going was nothing.

"Can't you do something about it?" Narukami asked without shame. As long as he is alive, nothing matters. Middle finger to dignity and pride as a man.

"Hey, arrogant brat! How dare you order her like that! Don't you know who she is?!" Haru was enraged.

"She's Hikari, what do you want me to say? At any rate, she's the only one who can save us all."

Well in truth, Narukami could do something about that dangerous magic circle, it's just that he did not want to attract attention.

Especially so with other gods' Blessed were here. He wanted to appear as weak as possible to avoid unnecessary troubles and attention.

Although showing his strength now might show them respect and less the insults he got. Narukami did not care at all.

Through spiritual transmission, Narukami ordered Hikari, "act like I'm a passerby involved in this and we only know for a short moment."

Narukami did know she wanted to beat Haru to a pulp when he insulted Narukami. Thankfully, Hikari did not act hastily or things might go awry.

Although Hikari was powerful and different from the others. She was still a 'Blessed'. Every strength was necessary when fighting an evil deity's vessel.

"Everyone, we have to gather our spiritual energy to form a barrier strong enough to block any attack!" Hikari said out loud.

"Hikari-san, but that's..." Haru was in doubt. The reason was that a barrier with no specific target was weak. For example, if the barrier was to block a Pyro attack only, that barrier would be strong. However, against another element, the barrier was weak.

Hikari wanted them to form a barrier that could against all types of attacks. There was no specific target, which made the barrier many times weaker!

"Don't worry, trust in me," Hikari assured him and knowing how capable and reliable she was, Haru and Yeanne agreed with the plan.

Haru glanced at Narukami and pondered, "Is he going to help?"

Hikari replied, "Of course, every strand of spiritual energy is needed."

Haru hesitated before nodding, "okay."

Narukami knew that Haru had little trust in him but it was normal so he did not bother with him.

Furthermore, he was the core of this plan as he was the one who suggested the idea to Hikari.

He had a bunch of abilities in his mind. These could counter pretty much every situation, the situation now is not an exception.

What he wanted to do was to change the property of the barrier at the last moment. What that meant would be explained when Armageddon decided to attack.

"Here it comes," Narukami warned as he narrowed his eyes. He used the normal quantity of spiritual energy a Level 9 Sorcerer had.

However, things did not go as expected. He used a bit too much and the barrier formed faster and more tough than expected.

Haru aware of this and tracing its source, he was surprised.

Think it again, there's no way a man that can stand next to Hikari-san is normal. This guy probably hides his strength, but for what? Can't he see the situation here? Haru thought to himself and was a bit enraged.

A man who did not want to go all out despite life at stake. Wasn't that just plain arrogant and had too much confidence?

Earlier was just anger but now added with irritation.

"You're stronger than I thought" Yeanne paused as she continued, "but why did you hide your strength?"

Unlike Haru, Yeanne was rather straightforward and honest. Would not hesitate to say what was in her mind.

Narukami paused as he considered his words. Should he say something wrong, it would lead to trouble such as losing trust, making himself like an arrogant fellow, and many other factors.

He did not care but right now, where life was at stake and everyone used all they got. While he did not, it was normal.

While we are serious, why are you joking around! They probably thought.

"Because I just advanced and my strength is unstable. If I use too much, no one knows what will happen. Do you want to say a word or two to Amaterasu when I died?" Narukami asked.

"Amaterasu? What are you talking about?" Haru asked and Narukami did not answer as––

"Here it comes!"

The attack launched at them, which was a bright purple beam coming at them like a meteor
