"Wow, what's with that look?" The person pondered as he tilted his head to the side. He had a black headband and red hair. He continued, "Not like I'm the one taking hostage your best friends. Blurgh, saying best friends almost makes me puke."
"Move aside if you don't want to get hurt," said Narukami.
After a short pause, the person said, "You're Narukami, right? I'm Rick. Sorry but I cannot follow your words. Not like I want to but it's my job to defeat you," said Rick.
"Additionally, aren't you being too arrogant just you hit my palm?" Rick said as his tone was that of displeased.
Narukami frowned as his side effect had been removed, "What are you talking about? How arrogant is that?"
It was not like Narukami wanted to hit his palm. To be exact, Rick blocked his fist so that did not count as an attack.
This guy is weird, Narukami said to himself.
"You over there, release the two of them, now!" Ordered Narukami as he paused in the middle of his sentence. When it happened, killing intent burst out.
However, Rick and the man do not react as they get used to it already but it would be a lie if their hearts did not skip a beat.
No way in heaven could they get used to such an abnormal killing intent!
"No matter how many times I sense it. Your killing intent is terrifying that it's freakish. Is your dream to be a monster that parents used to scare their children?" Rick mocked as he coldly scoffed.
"I'm not talking to you, shut up." Narukami raised his hand and quickly moved down. As soon as he did that, thick powerful lightning went down as it struck Rick!
Boom!
His entire figure was engulfed. The surroundings turned to a bright morning for a short moment.
Explosion noise spread out to the entire area as the ground and air reverberated. Next, Narukami did it a few times, three lightning strikes down on Rick!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Each time it did, the ground would cave in and form web-like cracks. One could see the ground was covered in black and the pungent smell of something was burnt.
Narukami looked at Rick's position for a few seconds straight with a calm face before retracting it to the man.
He raised his legs and stomped the ground. Shortly thereafter, a straight ditch was formed as it was heading to the man.
It was quick too and before the man realized it, the ditch had already reached his feet.
Then, Narukami changed his stomped feet position as he made his toes face to the left.
The ditch expanded as the ground on the left was moving away rapidly. It was as though Narukami was an angered god that chose to bury his sinful believers alive!
The man lost his footing as he fell down the ditch. The hostages he held did not follow him but instead floated in mid-air.
"What?" Narukami pondered.
Narukami took a step forward as he left a straight trail of dust. He was instantly within proximity with Jim and Asahi and Ryu!
He reached out his hand to grab them or so he thought when his danger senses picked up something threatening from above.
Narukami hurriedly retreated but before that, however, he secretly put small orbs, the size of a pearl, on Asahi and Jim. It stuck on them as though being glued.
These orbs had spiritual energy which the enemy could detect. Narukami put on concealment. Less than five percent of the enemy could notice them.
Anyway, after silently putting them on, Narukami leaped backward a few times and onto his latest position. A gigantic spear of light stabbed the ground as the sharp edge embedded into the soil.
The ground greatly trembled. Narukami could imagine his body turning to two should he get hit. Although that was not enough to kill him, the amount of spiritual energy needed just to restore his body to the way it was, was no joke.
That was not the only attack. Narukami felt something ominous above him.
Looking up at the sky, he saw a point of light as though stars in Dome A, Antarctica. It was beautiful. However, comparing that with the one in the sky, Narukami got a feeling it did not star as New York City was polluted, and even because of light pollution, one could not see the stars.
Narukami poured his spiritual energy into his eyes and like flames burn in them, Narukami's eyesight greatly increased as he could see something far away.
After a closer look, Narukami almost doubted his eyes and thought the person who did this was pure evil or in madness.
The tiny light specs in the sky were huge spears coming down from outer space! As they were getting closer to Earth, New York City to be precise, fire engulfed the sharp tip as they entered the atmosphere but not like that was going to stop them from falling.
Fire, falling, giant spears were raining down on New York City and it looked like a meteor shower from the ground.
"Quite a show, right?" Rick asked casually as he appeared behind Narukami, sitting on top of a floating spear of light.
"Since when you're here?!" Narukami was alarmed as he instantly turned his body at Rick and punched him as his fist was covered in lightning arcs.
Swoosh!
Sadly, he punched anything but empty air as the spear beneath Rick moved to the left, avoiding him.
"Shouldn't you worry about something else?" Suggested Rick as he smiled teasingly. Simultaneously, he pointed his fingers to the sky.
"That's your doing? Just who are you?" Narukami asked with a frown and a bit of shock. To be able to perform large-scale attacks which covered the entire city and came from outer space at that. Even an idiot and a fool would know that Rick was a Level 10 powerhouse!
However, most Level 10s were famous like celebrities in the world of mysticism.
Here comes the problem, Narukami never heard of Rick.
"Haven't I just said my name? Are you deaf? Or is it perhaps my attacks cause you so terrified that your mind is racing and cannot process what I'm saying?" Rick pondered with a devilish smile.
Narukami was about to say a word when he heard panic cries from the city. He shifted his line of sight there with a conflicted look.
Later, he gazed at Ryu, Asahi, and Jim. If he saved the city, it was unknown what might happen to these three yet should he not, millions of lives were going to perish!
"So which one are you going to choose? Your friends or millions of innocent lives? Just to inform you if the latter is erased from Earth. The Earth will get healthier."
Narukami ignored his words as his mind raced as he thought of many plans yet all seemed useless as none could save the city and his friends!
Then, he recalled the black orbs which allowed him to teleport at far range.
Wait, it might work! Narukami silently thought to himself as he got an idea.
Narukami glanced at Rick before shooting towards the sky like spring.
Boom!
Leaving a deep crater and web-like cracks. Dust rose to the air as the ground reverberated as though there was an earthquake.
Rick watched as Narukami went into the sky at the speed of sound, five times faster than that to be exact. One could see faint trails of smoke he left behind.
Rick squinted his eyes in a perverted way, "Work hard, work hard. Narukami Shinra but in the end, it will all be for nothing. I wanted to see your expression when met with true despair." Rick licked his tongue.
Piercing through the air, Narukami stopped as he was about fifty thousand feet away from New York City.
Looking down, he saw the brightness of the city and looked particularly warm as it was beautiful.
Turning his head up, he took a deep breath and closed his eyes. A few moments later, he instantly opened it and his body was covered in powerful spiritual energy!
Shortly thereafter, he crossed his arms and smirked.
"'Mongrels, did you think you could take down the city I loved?' is what I like to say but I'm barely here, not even a day,", said Narukami as he chuckled and continued solemnly, "Regardless, you're not destroying any city tonight and killing millions in the process."
His tone just got more serious and deep.
"Open, my old friend. One who stands by my side from the first gate of reincarnation. Techniques of all techniques. Principles of all. Gate of Unlimited Sword Arts!"
After he said that, blue magic circles appeared behind Narukami and their number kept increasing and stopped when it expanded to ten kilometers!
In the next moment, swords and blades of different forms and types were shot out at speed indiscernible by the eyes!
