People in Izumo, make Honkai great again

"Kiana!"

Mei was stunned and just stretched out her hand, but before she could stop her, Kiana was so fast that she could only see an afterimage.

Does the sword limit Kiana's performance?

Without caring about how Kiana's strength increased again, Mei Raiden followed Kiana with a knife and rushed into the pile of rocks.

The octopus ghost is not a very powerful ghost. The reason why it can survive until now is largely because it is very survivable.

It drifts along the river, like a legendary water ghost or evil god, and wherever it passes by, it will pull humans near the river into the river and devour them.

That is, a thousand years ago, when Takama-ga-hara first arrived, there was a battle with the resistance forces of this world.

The low-level ghost has limited thinking ability, but it still remembers the swordsman who cut it in half with one sword and almost killed it on the spot.

It had been hiding carefully all these years, until today when it felt that all the demon-slaying swordsmen had evacuated, and also sensed that the Thunder God Yujian was in this area, it became bolder.

The octopus's legs were flailing wildly, and the tentacles sprouting from under its head looked like countless creepy, limp legs.

It wanted to escape back into the river.

"Want to escape now? It's too late!"

Kiana was so brave that she grabbed the octopus's legs when it wanted to retract them and run away, and used her arms to pull the octopus ghost so hard that it could not move.

"Give it to me! Come back!!!"

She used all her strength and threw the demon, which was quite large, almost as big as a van, and had more than a dozen octopus legs, over her shoulder.

When Mei arrived, she saw Kiana grabbing the demon and giving it a shocking shoulder throw.

Kiana...

No, now is not the time to overthink.

The octopus ghost was stunned by the fall. In addition to bloodthirstiness, there was also a hint of confusion in its several pairs of scarlet eyes.

Is this the strength that humans should have?

No, it has to run!

Now the offense and defense have changed. The octopus ghost has no desire to fight and turns around and runs away quickly.

But what greeted it was a force that fell from the sky, like a fist of steel, smashing it into the ground.

The octopus' tentacles moved without any rules, not even caring about itself, and attacked Kiana mercilessly.

The sound of hitting the ground is very dull, but the sound of hitting yourself is much crisper.

But it is not that easy to hit Kiana. Kiana couldn't dodge it, so she grabbed the tentacles and then picked up the octopus ghost and continued to hit it hard on both sides.

"I told you to jump out and scare people! You still want to eat people, right? Today I want to taste the difference between your octopus legs and the ones sold outside!"

An overly violent scene.

It was hard to tell who was the ghost or god.

Kiana didn't even need to use the skill 'Phase Shift', because just relying on her physical fitness enhanced by Honkai energy, she could beat the octopus to a pulp.

The octopus ghost looks scary, but apart from its super strong recovery ability, its speed and strength are not particularly strong even compared to Kiana before she was strengthened by Honkai energy. It has been unilaterally beaten and its legs have been broken.

It’s just that his recovery ability is too strong, and she doesn’t know how to control it, so she has no way to deal with this guy!

It's the same now.

This ghost was in a very miserable state and was thrown around like a sandbag by Kiana. Its tentacles and other parts of its body were also damaged to varying degrees.

But after falling to the ground and getting injured, his body surprisingly returned to its original shape when he was pulled up and fell again. Don't even mention how terrifying this recovery speed is.

After going back and forth for more than ten times, Kiana became angry. When will this end?

"The power of ghosts and gods, huh? Erosion, huh? If you can, erode the Honkai!"

The world's Houkai energy concentration is less than 5%.

But Kiana was not an ordinary person. She pinched the ghost's head and released the Honkai energy in her body without any instruction.

The ghost, realizing that Kiana couldn't find a way to kill it, was about to give up struggling and resigned itself to being a punching bag. However, its reaction became extremely violent after coming into contact with Honkai energy.

The whole body twitched in a very weird way, as if it was electrocuted by high voltage current.

An indescribable scream came from its mouth.

Kiana was startled and threw it aside, looking warily at the ghost that she had injected with Honkai energy.

The ghost rolled on the ground in pain, and the tentacles that attacked Kiana were violently torn apart by Kiana.

Strange lines appeared on its body surface, which were the traces left after being eroded by the Honkai energy.

Its momentum surged, and just as Kiana secretly exclaimed, "Oh no, it seems like she's gone too far and turned this guy into a Honkai creature," the ghost's body began to melt into black slime like butter when exposed to heat.

Slowly, the ghost stopped struggling and its body melted faster and faster. It would only take about a minute for it to melt completely.

Is this dead?

Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief and go see Mei, she heard the sound of Mei's sword being unsheathed again.

what happened?

She quickly turned around with concern and saw a number of new tentacles growing on the tentacles of an octopus less than one meter long, which were cut in half by Raiden Mei using the Beichen Itori.

A slightly crisp sound.

Like hitting glass?

The octopus tentacles that were cut by Mei began to vaporize after falling to the ground, turning into a strange black and red gas. Not only that octopus tentacles, but also the hundreds of octopus tentacles densely packed on the ground, and even the body of the ghost that was eroded by Kiana's Honkai energy and melted into black water like butter, began to boil with the crisp sound.

It was like boiling water bubbling and then quickly vaporizing. The black and red gas was pulled towards the knife in Mei's hand by some kind of attraction.

Chapter 14: Demon Sword (Fifth Update!)

Mei Raiden frowned.

A strange aura lingered around the blade. Without hesitation, she plunged the knife into the ground in front of her and took two steps back.

Kiana is still here.

It is better to stay away from such unknown dangers.

"Kiana, are you okay?"

She walked over to Kiana worriedly, wanting to check her physical condition.

Kiana shook her head, "I feel fine, but what's going on?"

She had never seen such a scene before.

Could it be that Izumo's forged sword can really kill demons and gods, and the power of the demons and gods will be taken away by the sword?

No other steps required?

"I didn't notice it before. This kind of monster actually has a weakness. There should be some kind of core in their body. If we break it, we can kill them."

Mei made a post-war summary.

If you encounter similar creatures in the future, you will no longer get stuck in a stalemate in battle with them.

However, finding the core is also a test of combat experience.

Kiana nodded thoughtfully.

The ghosts and gods in Takama-ga-hara are quite strange. Are they really born naturally?

"Although his intelligence is not very high, he is very cunning." Raiden Mei continued to add.

She looked at the knife, which was being transformed by the black and red power, frowned and said, "After realizing it was no match for you, it separated its sub-body and tried to escape towards the river."

But she was discovered by her who was paying attention to the situation.

Such ghosts and gods should be considered as inferior among the eight million gods.

"Luckily, Mei is here with me, otherwise I would have let it get away."

The battle was over, and Kiana was in the mood to ask Mei why she was here.

"But Mei, why are you here?"

Mei was staring at the sword that was beginning to change in appearance and was wondering what the connection was between ghosts and swords when she was stunned.

She looked at Kiana and said in a weaker voice, "Sorry, I've actually been following you."

"I see." Kiana scratched her head. "I didn't want to bother you with this trip, but it seems to have made it even more troublesome."

Mei Lei Dian heaved a sigh of relief and shook her head, "I don't think this is a problem."

If she hadn't followed Kiana, she wouldn't have discovered that Kiana would encounter such a dangerous thing at this time.

If Kiana gets hurt or...

She was somewhat glad that she had followed.

"But Meiyi, why are you carrying a knife?"

Seeing that all the strange aura around was absorbed by the sword that Mei brought out from the shrine, Kiana walked forward and picked up the katana, which seemed to be wrapped in resentment and had turned into a demonic sword.

There's a chill in your hand, a chilling discomfort that goes straight to your soul and spirit.

This knife can nourish the user and heal the user's injuries, but it will also cause erosion while healing the injuries.

Why did Kiana know?

Of course, it was because when she picked up the knife, a message box appeared in front of her.

[Demon Sword (C): A low-quality sword increases the cost of using it. Every swing and every use of its power will cause double the erosion effect on oneself.

Special effects: Broken Sword Rebirth (After the blade is broken, it will consume vitality and immediately restore to its original state), Life Drain (When killing a creature, you can plunder the creature's vitality and store it in the core, and you can consume vitality to recover from your injuries)]

There is also a suggestion below the information.

【Suggestion: Recycling and decomposition】

"It turns out that the octopus can't recover infinitely." How many people has that guy eaten when he can regenerate hundreds of legs at once?

Kiana thrust the knife back in.

Mei was still trying to find a suitable reason for carrying a knife with her. When he heard her mumbling, he turned his gaze to the knife again.

"Did you find anything?"

"After killing that octopus demon, this sword will become a demon sword." Kiana reached out and held down Mei's hand as she tried to draw the sword, warning her, "This sword has a very serious side effect."

"Demon sword?"

As a person who practices kendo, Mei still wants to see what the difference is between this sword called "demon sword" by Kiana.

"don’t worry."

After patting Kiana to show that she was fine, Mei Raiden walked to the side of the demon sword, reached out to grasp the hilt of the demon sword, and pulled out the sword again.

Holding the knife, I felt a double sense of discomfort both physically and mentally, and at the same time I also felt the difference of this knife.

Can heal the knife wielder.

"Is this the demon sword?"

Mei Raiden looked in the direction where the thunder had come from during the day. Would the 'Narusha' enshrined in the shrine also become like this after beheading the being named Takemikazuchi?

Kiana looked at Mei nervously. If Mei wanted to try out the demon sword's skills, she would grab the sword and say, "Don't use it carelessly. It's very corrosive to the human body, and the side effects aren't very good either."

It can only heal itself and not others, and when it heals itself, it will also erode itself twice as much.

What kind of milk is this?

This is poisoned milk. If you use it, your life will be ruined and you will be corroded and turned into a ghost.

"Don't worry, Kiana, I won't use this demon sword." Mei saw her worry and smiled helplessly.

"That's good..."

Kiana breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as Mei doesn't do anything stupid.

They picked up the scabbard and put the magic sword back in. They still needed to think carefully about what to do with it.

Fortunately, after the ghosts and gods die, their bodies will disappear and become nutrients for the sword. Otherwise, it would be difficult to deal with such a big body that cannot be eaten and makes people lose their sanity at first sight.
