EPHS-CHAPTER 257 ANOTHER LONGINUS PART 2

Searching around, Tenraku soon found a short young boy on one side of the battlefield. A massive black shadow loomed beneath the boy's feet, constantly giving birth to various strange-shaped Demonic Beasts that broke free from the shadow.

Dozens, if not hundreds of shadows were being produced at any given moment and their numbers continued to increase!

That was obviously not magic but the ability of a Sacred Gear. In Tenraku's memory, there was only one Sacred Gear capable of producing such a large quantity of Demonic Beasts.

A Tool that Destroys God – Longinus: [Demonic Beast Creation – Annihilation Maker]!

Moreover, the mist that had transported him to this unfamiliar space was likely also an ability of a Sacred Gear. If his guess was correct, it was also one of the Longinus Sacred Gear, [Fog of Extinction – Dimension Lost]!

[True Longinus], [Demonic Beast Creation – Annihilation Maker], and [Fog of Extinction – Dimension Lost]—three legendary Longinus Sacred Gears had appeared all at once. This was truly a super event!

Hong Long!!!

With a loud crash, Azazel, wearing his golden battle armor, landed next to Tenraku in a disheaveled state.

"Azazel, you didn't let yourself be defeated so easily, did you?"

"You brat, it was just a momentary slip-up."

Tenraku teased, while Azazel grumbled as he stood up. There was a black hole in his sturdy golden armor, illustrating the sharpness of the weapon that had pierced it.

Hovering in the air, Cao Cao looked down at Tenraku with great interest and spoke. "Nice to meet you too, Kamiya Tenraku."

Why did the members of the Khaos Brigade suddenly attack us?" Tenraku asked, facing Cao Cao.

"We planned to conduct an experiment in Kyoto, and since you all would become obstacles, we intended to eliminate you before the experiment began," Cao Cao replied.

"I see…"

After receiving Cao Cao's answer, Tenraku nodded and then turned to Azazel beside him.

"Azazel, you entertain this leader of the Hero Faction."

"Kid, don't you want to have a showdown with such an opponent? I'm sure you're eager to get your hands on that Holy Spear he wields," Azazel remarked.

"Of course, I want it, but it's not realistic to obtain it right now. So, I plan to obtain something nearby that I can get my hands on," Tenraku replied.

"In that case, go ahead. I'll keep him occupied for you. HāHāHāHā…"

Understanding Tenraku's intention, Azazel burst into laughter and soared into the sky once again, engaging Cao Cao.

Hong Hong! Hong Hong Hong!

Although neither side had unleashed their true abilities, the battle was still incredibly intense. Azazel dealt with Cao Cao while Tenraku made his way toward the boy who was creating Demonic Beasts.

Any Sacred Gear was like a delicious dish to Tenraku, capable of enhancing his abilities and increasing his power. And the Longinus Sacred Gears were undoubtedly the rarest and most delicious among them. Even Tenraku couldn't afford to miss any of them!

The boy who created Demonic Beasts naturally noticed Tenraku approaching him and commanded his creations to attack Tenraku incessantly.

Swish, Swish, Swish…

Tenraku continuously sliced through the oncoming Demonic Beasts with his sword. But as the battle progressed, Demonic Beasts that have similar power to High-Class Devils and even Top-Class Devils began to appear. These Demonic Beasts were capable of using magic and unleashing powerful electric and fiery flames.

Furthermore, because these Demonic Beasts were not genuine living beings, they had no sense of fear. Even if their companions were slain, they continued to rush forward, undeterred.

"Hǒǒǒuuu!"

Hong Hong Hong!

With explosive crashes, Tenraku was eventually engulfed in a barrage of magical attacks. Amidst the swirling dust and scorching flames, when the vision cleared, Tenraku emerged unscathed, still donning his Heavenly Dragon armor.

Raising his hand, Tenraku unleashed energy waves akin to laser beams from his hand and swept away the nearby Demonic Beasts. However, more Demonic Beasts quickly surged forward and replaced the beasts that were slain by Tenraku.

Undoubtedly, the power of the Longinus Sacred Gear seemed endless. But that only further solidified Tenraku's determination to obtain them.

"Let's try that move…" Muttering to himself, dozens of scarlet and silver small flying dragons flew out from the jade jewels on Tenraku's armor. Each of them was palm-sized, resembling miniature versions of the Heavenly Dragons.

"Boost! Boost! Boost!"

"Divide! Divide! Divide!"

The small flying dragons circled around Tenraku. The scarlet ones were responsible for attacking, continuously unleashing powerful energy waves, while the silver ones took on the defensive role, constantly reducing and absorbing the enemy's attacks.

Hong Hong Hong! Hong Hong Hong!

Explosions echoed, and any Demonic Beast that approached Tenraku met a fate of annihilation. Even several members of the Khaos Brigade who attempted to ambush Tenraku were turned to ashes by the energy waves expelled by the scarlet small flying dragons.

Without wasting any time, Tenraku arrived in front of the young boy. Staring coldly at him, the black mass beneath the boy's feet writhed, and a gigantic Demonic Beast emerged, surpassing all the previous ones in size.

"Roar!"

The tremendous soundwave emitted by the newly summoned Demonic Beast was overwhelming, and the powerful aura emanating from the Demonic Beast felt like a storm crashing upon Tenraku.

There was no doubt that this was a monster on the level of a Demon King!

The boy appeared young, and Tenraku had long noticed that he didn't possess the strength of a Demon King. However, with the power of the Longinus Sacred Gear [Demonic Beast Creation – Annihilation Maker], he managed to create a Demonic Being that surpassed his own strength!

Although Tenraku didn't know the cost behind this ability, he had to admit it was extremely terrifying.

If the boy could already summon a Demon King-level monster, who knows what he would be capable of summoning in the future? Ten such beasts? A hundred Demonic Beasts with such power? Even more!

With a flash of determination in his eyes, Tenraku would not allow such a dangerous Longinus Sacred Gear to remain in the hands of his enemy.

Opening its large maw, the Demonic Beast condensed a massive sphere of light and then spewed it toward Tenraku with a sizzling sound.

"Divide! Divide! Divide!"

Unfurling his azure wings, Tenraku unleashed the power of the White Dragon Sovereign, continuously reducing the incoming attack and eventually devouring it entirely.

With a swift advance, Tenraku's fist struck the Demonic Beast, causing it to expand and burst like erupting magma.

Even if it was a Demon King-level monster, it was just a matter of one punch for Tenraku in his current state. If the boy could summon ten or a hundred of these Demonic Beasts then Tenraku would only have a chance to escape. But unfortunately for him, he didn't have that opportunity anymore!
