Chapter 287 - What Does Hanky Panky Mean? (1/2)

”Nik! You really don't have to do this!”

Mitsuri stammered as Nik bashed the head of three slightly sturdier and complete zombies with ease as his War Gauntlets shone dully under the moonlight.

”No, I was the one who invited you to call me after you were free. Although accidentally, I couldn't come and relieve you. So let me do the heavy work.”

Nik refused Mitsuri's refusal of his assistance and extracted the pure energy from the zombies before looking for other zombies and continuing his massacre. The number of Zombies had increased quite a lot and even the ground was littered by arms of the zombies that tried to walk free.

Meanwhile, Nik's evolution was also hastened with the influx of energy. And with the history of controlling two types of energy— Elemental and Hamon— Nik was growing closer to mastering this new form of energy.

His actions caused Mitsuri's cheeks to flush as she finally stopped resisting Nik's assistance and started to assist Nik instead, striking when he missed. This way, the duo started to clear quite a lot of Zombies at a quick pace. But, the duo knew that the number itself was the problem and the most efficient manner in this slaughter was to take out the stronger foes while the weaker and the slower ones are to be left to the line of defense of a large number of demon slayers surrounding the perimeter.

”Hahahahahahahaha!”

As Nik and Mitsuri partnered up in tonight's slaughter, a wild guffaw rang followed by the entrance of an Inosuke estranged from his herd as he claimed the head of any and every Zombie unfortunate enough to walk into his path of rush before the wild Inosuke ran away.

Seeing Mitsuri's expression that was on verge of guffawing itself, Nik smiled and uppercutted the head of a Zombie, tearing his head off its poor neck.

The head flew into the air and Nik instantly materialized his Nichirin blade before swiping his blade in a circular motion to cleave the heads of three zombies encroaching to sink their jaws in the sweet meat of their allied undead.

Swish!

Even though Nik had already identified a zombie approaching from behind, Nik let Mitsuri strike, or her sword would have cut his hand. He sighed internally. Mitsuri and Nik were not in sync. They were slowly getting a hang of each other in battle, but it would still take some time to understand each other's habits in battle.

”Nice!”

Nik smiled at Mitsuri before covering the five dead zombies with his neutral energy and extracted the pure energy into his body. As he felt the thin stream of the accumulated energy bloating enough, Nik finally tried to seize control of the flow of energy and try to alter its path within his body to slowly develop control of the energy and then finally, gain a slight affinity with such useful energy.

Alas, he couldn't wrestle the control out of the natural flow and sighed softly when the soft growls of slowly emerging zombies filled the surroundings once again.

”Breath of Gravity: First Form—

Crushing Spectre!”

The remaining five points of energy got consumed as Nik slammed his palms into the ground and instantly, the area of the 20-meter radius with Nik as the center sunk considerably. The strange action and the sudden disappearance of the 'growing'0 zombies elicited a confused gaze from Mitsuri.

”I crushed them while they were still under.”

Nik stood up with deep exhalation and then looked around. With his [Life Vision] on a temporary hold due to insufficient energy, Nik relied on his [Perfect Eyesight] to predict the arrival of zombies.

”Nik, what did you have in store for me, this afternoon, I mean.”

Mitsuri inquired curiously while she sheathed her sword and walked closer to Nik. Truly, it was a wonder to Nik how Mitsuri's breasts didn't just... pop out from her shirt they way she clothed herself, but either way, he was in no position to complain. He loved those babies exposed or clothed.

”A massage.”

Nik placed his swords back into his inventory and matched Mitsuri's gaze, ”I planned a great massage for you... no hanky panky stuff. Just a normal massage.”

Mitsuri frowned and pondered for a moment, ”What does Hanky Panky mean?”

”Sex, of course.”

Nik grinned while Mitsuri averted her gaze with a deep flush.
