"Are you finished?" Saiko asked as he was displeased. He was left out and his presence was as thin as an ant despite the fact his aura was going crazy!
"Shut up!" Narukami and his ancestor turned their heads at Saiko. The latter was startled as he quickly shut his mouth.
Then he realized he was following the enemy's rhythm. Could not accept that he aimed his hand at Narukami and spiritual energy rapidly circulate his body.
Sensing this, Narukami narrowed his eyes as he prepared for the worst. However, his ancestor was one step forward ahead of him and quickly jumped in, standing in front of him.
"Ancestor?" Narukami blurted out as he was perplexed. Then something blinding was coming his way. From an outsider's perspective, it looked like a laser beam shot out of a spaceship. Looked beautiful yet deadly.
It was obvious where it came out, Saiko's palm.
Narukami instantly put barriers around him but it was futile, the laser beam was faster than he imagined. Even though before him was his ancestor, protecting him. The laser beam managed to get past her defense as she was blown away to the side.
"Narukami, look out!" She shouted as she stabilized herself in the air.
Narukami knew that without being warned yet he was seconds late as his body was hit!
His defenses were nothing but like a thin wall before a cannon. Easily obliterated.
However, contrary to his expectation. There was no pain at all. Only dizziness and he felt like he just lost his footing.
His surroundings went blurry as though distorted from reality. His body felt light as though he was floating.
Not long after, his dizziness suddenly disappeared as it came. He got his footing back and his body was like it used to. His surroundings also stopped from blurring.
"Where is this?" Narukami asked as he looked around and realized he was in a deep tunnel. Narukami walked forward and stumbled over something. He fell in the next instant with a loud thud.
He quickly got up and looked at what made him fall.
"Ryu?"
.

"You could've saved him," said Saiko as he felt something's amiss.
"He just got teleported to a secret realm you made. No big deal, shouldn't you worry more about yourself instead of others?" Said Narukami's ancestor casually and playfully.
"I think you're the one who should. Why don't you retire already? Poor bones have already worked for centuries." Saiko mocked.
"Be at ease, you don't have to worry." As soon as she said that, she rushed at Saiko with an excited smile. "Entertain me, grandmaster of All Beyond. Saiko Hito!"
When they were about ten meters away from one another, she leaped and a black, long broadsword appeared on her hand.
The broadsword was five times her size yet she had no difficulty carrying it.
Slashing down, it cut through the air as it aimed at his head.
As usual, her strength is insanely frightening! No matter how many times I've fought with her in different timelines. Her strength is beyond any Sorcerer in the world! She's the strongest swordsman in the world! Exclaimed Saiko in his heart as he blocked the attack with a thick barrier made of spiritual energy.
Clang!
The thick, heavy blade crashed down on a barrier which had the toughness of steel, probably ten times more than that! Sparks flew everywhere.
The ground beneath Saiko caved in as it formed web-like cracks.

"Hey, wake up," said Narukami as he gently slapped Ryu a few times. However, it was futile as Ryu seemed to be in deep sleep.
Narukami pondered a bit on how to wake him up. No way would he let this guy sleep while he dragged him to the exit of this place. Having no options coming to mind, Narukami slapped as hard as he could under the premise of not killing Ryu.
Big or small injuries were no problem.
Slap!
Ryu's head hit the ground and the latter submitted under the pressure. In the end, Ryu's head was buried in the ground with his body on the surface.
It was a strange sight to look at.
Not long after, Ryu struggled as he placed his hands and legs on the ground and tried to pull himself out. He let out a hasty breath as though he was drowning.
"Uhn! Uhn!"
Narukami did not help him at all as he watched him struggle by the side with his arms crossed. If there was popcorn, he would probably eat it while watching his friend try his best to stick his head out of the ground.
A few seconds later, Ryu finally able to get his head out and shot a furious look at Narukami, "What is that all for?! Are you seriously going to kill me?!" He yelled.
"If you're dead, then you're dead," replied Narukami calmly.
"You devil! Now I somewhat regret following you, sigh," lamented Ryu because he felt like choosing the wrong decision and sighed as he was tired.
"I'm just messing with you," said Narukami.
"If you said calmly, I don't know whether you're joking or being serious. Either way, take this!" Ryu instantly slapped Narukami or so he thought when Narukami dodged as he vanished and appeared behind Ryu.
"Hey! That's unfair!" Refuted Ryu as his attack was missed. He turned around.
Narukami chuckled with a calm face, which was weird. It was as though he had no intention of doing that at all. His giggle seemed forced. Like someone pointing their gun on his back and telling him to giggle.
"What's with that creepy chuckle, can you stop?" He hurriedly begged. Not to mention, it was kind of disturbing.
"You do know I have a heart, right?" Narukami pondered.
"Yeah but facial expressions are there for your heart to try to convey. You have a calm face. Other people might not know what kind of emotion you are feeling right now. Though, that's an exception to me, of course," the edge of his lips curved upward as he smiled proudly.
Narukami casually kicked the back of Ryu's feet.
"Ouch! What the heck?" Ryu groaned as he complained.
"Nothing, I'm just annoyed," said Narukami as he continued kicking with a bit of his strength. It was like getting a punch from a kick but Ryu got annoyed as he felt like he was a toy being played with.
"Stop it will you?!" Ryu's tone intensified as he was irritated.
"Okay, okay," said Narukami as he stopped. He did not want to play any longer either considering the place they were in.
"Playtime's over, we should go now," suggested Narukami as he walked a few steps into the depths of the cave passageway before stopping.
The cave was nowhere narrow, it was quite vast albeit the structure was like any natural cave, random and rough.
"What's wrong, Narukami?" Ryu asked as he got up but then collapsed or at least that was what he thought when Narukami suddenly catch his body, preventing him from touching the ground.
"I forgot to ask but how come you can talk?" Narukami pondered. He forget this important detail as he was focused on annoying Ryu.
"After you step into the ring, that guy Rick suddenly heals me and Asahi. However, to the other guy. He ignored him," replied Ryu.
"Heal you? Why though?" Narukami felt it was odd.
"Beats me," said Ryu as he shrugged his shoulders.
"That aside, what did you see?" Asked Ryu without waiting for Narukami's response. He was curious why Narukami abruptly halted his steps.
"I feel thick foul energy coming from there," answered Narukami as he pointed his finger at the depths of the passageway.
"You mean there are Anomalies there?" Pondered Ryu.
"Not quite. I do not feel their presence. Only pure foul energy, it seems something evil gathered there and does not come in contact with the world, thus changing into pure foul energy," replied Narukami slowly.
Hesitated, Ryu said, "can you put me down?" He did not want to be a burden.
"Okay," simply replied Narukami as he instantly let go of Ryu without a warning. He fell with a light thud.
After which, he got up with his arms beneath him and turned to Narukami, "At least give me a warning!"
"Sorry, sorry," apologized Narukami as he got down, crouching and biting his thumb. Move forward his thumb before Ryu's lips.
The latter was reluctant but in the end, he opened his mouth and put Narukami's thumb into his mouth. Accepted it in the end.
In this state, he would only drag Narukami down.
Narukami pulled his thumb out his mouth and rubbed it on Ryu's shoulder, "You do know you could've just picked my blood with your finger and then put it inside, right?"
"I don't know why but that sounds lewd," Ryu abruptly said and Narukami was perplexed. How come that was lewd? Perhaps Narukami thought so.
"C'mon, get up now. We don't have time to waste, I want to see Saiko get his ass beaten."
"Un, okay!" Ryu nodded as he got up. His weakness had vanished to empty air. His body felt light and amazing. He was back at his peak!
However, after Ryu got up. Something unimaginable happened. A hole abruptly formed beneath Ryu and he fell!
"Wuuuaaah!" Ryu shouted.
Narukami noticed this and dived in without hesitation.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"Are you finished?" Saiko asked as he was displeased. He was left out and his presence was as thin as an ant despite the fact his aura was going crazy!
"Shut up!" Narukami and his ancestor turned their heads at Saiko. The latter was startled as he quickly shut his mouth.
Then he realized he was following the enemy's rhythm. Could not accept that he aimed his hand at Narukami and spiritual energy rapidly circulate his body.

"I think you're the one who should. Why don't you retire already? Poor bones have already worked for centuries." Saiko mocked.
"Be at ease, you don't have to worry." As soon as she said that, she rushed at Saiko with an excited smile. "Entertain me, grandmaster of All Beyond. Saiko Hito!"
When they were about ten meters away from one another, she leaped and a black, long broadsword appeared on her hand.
The broadsword was five times her size yet she had no difficulty carrying it.
