Chapter 321.2. Duke Kanna’s Trump Card
-Emperor’s POV-
[Knight’s Dance]
Mana surges from the demon swords, forming semi-transparent knights who swing their swords.
Each of their attacks is incredibly swift, making it difficult to even see.
“Kuh, well done!”
[Gale Sword]
With the light swords sealed, Touya employs his next fastest technique to defend against the knights. As the first knight charges, Touya narrowly dodges and swings his Wind Sword horizontally, cutting down two knights who attack simultaneously from his left and right.
A knight spins from behind, using the centrifugal force to power an attack. Touya’s shoulder gets grazed, and he manages to fend off the remaining knights approaching from all sides, although he can’t block some of their attacks.
“Auto attacks shouldn’t have this much power. This is troublesome.”
Blood scatters in the air as Touya glares at Duke Kanna in agony. Duke Kanna, however, stands by without attacking from behind the knights, simply observing.
If it were just a high vantage point for leisurely observation, Toya could have seized an opportunity to attack, but this wasn’t the case.
However, Touya and his allies no longer have any leeway. These knights are formidable, and his allies are being pushed back. It’s only a matter of time before they are defeated.
While his heart warns him to seize the enemy’s opening and strike, there are no longer any choices to be made. It was time to use the Emperor’s secret technique, passed down from the founder.
Covered in blood, unable to stop the bleeding, Touya makes his decision. He allows his blood to flow into the air, creating a secret formation around Duke Kamnashi.
Before Duke Kanna can sense anything amiss, Touya channels his mana into the flowing blood.
“Farewell, Duke Kanna.”
[Blood Flame]
Touya uses magic used by the founder when escaping from Honnoji Temple. It’s a simple magic that transforms blood into flames. However, it’s also a deadly spell.
“I never thought you had this much power...”
Everything shatters and collapses due to the violence of the sound. Space itself vanishes, and a vacuum is created.
At that moment, Genshin Touya was shattered into pieces by the sound of impending doom, disappearing without a trace.
Everything in a straight line is disintegrated. The walls of the hotel vanish, allowing the wind to flow in and make Duke Kanna’s hair flutter.
Duke Kann reverts his expanded armor and smiles contentedly.
“Farewell, Emperor. The next Emperor will be better than you. And there will be no more deaths for you.”
He mutters softly, then turns to those around him, clenching his fist in front of his chest.
“Rebels! Kanna Yamato has defeated the tyrant Emperor. Surrender quietly!”
“You traitor! Even if I’m the last one, I’ll kill you!”
As there is no sign of surrender from Ouga and his subordinates, Duke Kanna shrugs his shoulders.
“Well, then, it can’t be helped. Wipe the remnant out.”
But before he can order the annihilation, he steps back, his eyes stern.
A young girl’s battle cry echoes.
“Woooah!”
From a hole in the wall, a semi-transparent van flies in. It lands on the floor, drifts to a stop with screeching brakes, and a girl leaps out.
“Takano Miu! Is here!”
The gray-haired girl, whom Duke Kanna recognizes, strikes a pose and introduces herself.
“Hah, just in time. With this, the threads of destiny will be woven.”
Duke Kanna shows a pleased smile as the final piece falls into place.@@@@
