Festival of Blood 3

"Too fast," Lou tried to follow that man's movement but he couldn't see clearly how he pulled his sword back to its scabbard.

Fast as lightning, that is Lou's feeling right now, if he stands in front he is sure he will be cut like mincemeat from the torrent of slashes.

'When the sound arrives his katana is already back in the scabbard,' Lou thought the irregular pattern of slashes also make the man's sword more dangerous.

The regular slash is easy to see, but if you make it like wild and dangerous waving of the sword, that's a big problem for sure.

Even his arm is almost invincible whenever he pulls the sword and sheathes it back to his scabbard.

The motion is fast and fluid, there's no extra movement, every slash straight comes to Shigure who keeps blocking.

"That's good, this is going to be fun," The man said," Beware, I will make it faster~."

"What!" Lou was surprised, hearing what he said, if this fast slash can be faster, this will be more difficult for Shigure for sure.

*Ssssss

Then the rain of slashes really becomes faster, even the rock and the things around is randomly slashed.

Even the random wind coming from them to Lou can easily leave a slash mark on his body, and not only that.

Lou discovers that Shigure's movement is being suppressed by the movement of the man, Lou visibly sees some cut wound start to appear in her body.

Shigure already knows that she is a benign oppressor, so she needs to think of a new plan to defeat this man.

Or else she will be killed and Lou will be chopped into pieces for sure.

She then jumps backward to take distance, the palace where she stands right now turns into a chopping board leaving a deep cut mark in the ground.

But before she even lands, the movement of the man's arms change and follow wherever she lands.

From a stone chair, statue, post lamp, even the fountain slash and turn to a small box by the man's blade.

Shigure dash inside of the temple, the man follows her inside, while Lou dash to look at what is happening inside.

Even though Shigure doesn't have a plan, Lou already came up with a retreat strategy.

If ever Shifure fails to subdue her opponent, Lou will use all his ability to take her and escape from him.

Wherever Lou passes, everything is cut, the whole entrance of the temple cut into fine pieces, while in the middle is Shigure and the man who keeps following her.

"It seems… I need to take you seriously…" Shigure said.

"Then let's make this very interesting.." The Man said.

Suddenly both of them stop, the man stands while holding her sword from her back, while Shigure holds her sword above her head.

But for Lou's eyes, they are already fighting, they are fighting who is going to move first and counter it with their own move.

Even the pressure is too heavy for Lou to bear, a Ki from Shigure and the Murderous aura from the man.

Suddenly Lou heard a crisp metallic sound from the man.

*Ding

Then in the Shigure movie, she takes all the shuriken from nowhere and throws it to the man in different directions.

"Kousaka Style: Summer Rain Shuriken"

For an instant, Lou clearly sees everything she did, she instantly lets go of her katana and grabs a handful of shuriken inside of her breast pocket.

It's fast, clean and smooth movement, Lou doesn't know if he can do it but for sure Shigure will teach her that technique eventually.

"Amazing, you can do that instantly," The man said, then look at the incoming shuriken in different direction," And you can even control the flight of the shurikens,"

"But….. it's a shame~."

*Ding!

One by one the shuriken that flies to the man drops on the ground like falling leaves on autumn days.

*Ding!

*Ding!

*Ding!

The man cut all the shuriken into half and said," My perception is above any human in this world, I can feel anything and cut it automatically with my sword.

"Then try to dodge this," Shigure, who papers behind the man, tries to slash it in his back.

When her katana is about to hit the man's back, a miracle suddenly happens, she suddenly pushes back upward.

They both see it, the man can actually perform that speed slash in an indifferent direction because of his abnormal shoulder joint.

"Tssk, you see it…. This is going to be boring… let's end this," The man said.

"Secret Sword Technique - Thin Blade Kagerō"

An extremely fast sword Iaido technique that creates the illusion that multiple distorted swords appear in front of Shigure who is in the mid-air.

Lou suddenly moved, he knew that it's pretty impossible to change your direction in the mid air, much more in front of a Grand Master.

"Shotgun"

Without any buff or amplification, Lou uses his most fast and accurate stab to the man's head.

"How annoying,"

Lou who is about to hit the man suddenly faces a numerous sword illusion, it seems that the man felt that Lou can easily take him down so he changed the direction of the hsi technique to Lou.

'Shit!' This is the only thing that comes up in Lou's mind, he knows that his one sure will be bloody and painful.

*Slash!

Lou's body shreds in different parts, from his arms, body until his legs are cut deeply, even bones can easily be seen.

Seeing Lou's miserable appearance, the man sure that the kid is dead, then he turns back and shudders, he hurries leap backward to take distance.

Shigure who is already standing or away releasing a tremendous overbearing pressure, the man sure that this girl will butcher him for real.
