Just as Izawa was rushing over to support Kanna, Shika got close to the special ops large man and created a seal...

Destruction curse, ”Ice Pierce”!

Ice instantly formed and speedily spread along the ground.

The large man moved to dodge the ice. However, the ice suddenly changed directions and caught up to him. The ice then formed a sharp icicle which viciously stabbed the target man! He was sent flying by the impact.

Shika took this opportunity to speed up even more and gather a frigid chill on her Demon Blade Muramasa. She jumped into midair and sliced at the special ops man with a tremendous icy blade!

*Whoosh…* Her attack didn't land.

The man suddenly released a great amount of black mist as he backflipped and dodged the attack while counterattacking with his twin swords!

He clashed with Shika in midair. They had a fierce exchange of blows for several seconds before they split apart and both landed on the ground. Right after that, they jumped up and clashed in midair yet again.

Shika gradually gained the upper hand in this battle.

She wanted to deal with this enemy as quickly as possible so that she could go back and help Seiji in his battle. For this purpose, she used a highly aggressive fighting style. It seemed as if Shika became the living personification of a blizzard as she destroyed the enemy's personal protective barrier! However, the price for her own high-powered attack was that her personal barrier was also weakened to the point of almost collapsing.

The fight ended.

Shika used ”Snow Freeze” to freeze the large man, and then followed up with ”Ice Shatter” to finish him off. However...

*Boom!!*

The black mist around the man suddenly exploded, breaking the ice around the man and releasing a tremendous shock wave!

Shika was blown away by this unexpected counterattack. Right after that, something tightly bound her and her personal protective barrier was shattered!!

'Not good…'

That was the only thought Shika had time for before she felt a fierce impact and her head started hurting enormously…

[Demon Suppression Bell]!

Together with the loud clang of a bell, Seiji's gigantic golden bell appeared and covered the two jacketed men that he was fighting with. The bell also happened to destroy a nearby house.

”GAHHHHH!!!” Pitiful strange screams came from within the bell.

Although it seemed like Seiji had won, he still didn't let down his guard.

What happened next proved that he had been correct to be so cautious.

A dense black mist suddenly erupted, breaking his bell and speedily trying to envelop him!

Seiji swiftly dodged by backing up. He blocked the black mist with a barrier spell.

One jacketed man swiftly broke through his barrier but was greeted with an [Evolved Mana Bullet] to the face!

”You're going to have to practice for at least another ten years if you think you can successfully counterattack from the brink of defeat against me like that!”

Seiji then followed up with a fast series of sword attacks and finished with another [Shadow Cut] which sliced the second jacketed man in two.

This had used quite a bit of Seiji's energy and Mana. However, at least he finally won.

Seiji immediately turned around to go check on everyone else.

What he saw was a scene that made him feel like he was about to collapse from a heart attack—Shika was collapsed on the roadside!

”Shika-chan!!!” Seiji shouted loudly while running over to check his adopted younger sister's condition. He discovered that she appeared to be uninjured.

Shika woke up after Seiji called out to her.

”Brother Seiji…”

”Shika-chan, how are you feeling?”

”My… head is a little dizzy…” Shika spoke in a weak voice.

”Why would your head feel dizzy? What happened to you just now?”

”…Didn't you save me, Brother?”

”I just finished my own fight and rushed over immediately when I saw you already collapsed on the ground,” Seiji explained.

”Then, did Izawa-san save me?” Shika looked all around her.

But right after she said this, there was the sound of a loud explosion.

”Izawa-kun and Kanna are still fighting more enemies over there.” Seiji looked in the direction of the explosion.

Shika fell silent as something flashed in her eyes.

”I was careless just now, and my barrier was shattered… I fell unconscious… I think that Yukirai must have protected me, because she's asleep now.”

Yukirai was the name of Shika's bonded Snow Girl spirit.
