"Arata, you b******!!" Raven cursed as two shortswords appeared in her hand and she charged at Arata who immediately grabbed Katsu by his side and threw her at Raven.
Katsu looked behind at Arata who did not seem unfazed and she felt her heart shatter.
Seeing Katsu flying in her direction, the shortswords in her hands disappeared as she caught Katsu. Due to the force with which Arata has thrown her, they crashed back and rolled twice ok the flood before stopping, just by Scarlet's feet.
Scarlet immediately bent down to check on Raven and Katsu who had fainted. Raven ignored the bruise on her hand as she glared at Arata who was walking over to Danmachi.
Danmachi looked at Arata and nodded.
"You've worked hard, I'll make you my fifth general"
"Remember what you promised" Arata said and when Danmachi heard this, he grinned as smoke came of the gap of his teeth.
"No need to fret, Scarlet is yours"
"I'm not interested in Scarlet anymore, I want the one beside that guy" Arata said as he pointed at Zen's position.
"Oh..." Danmachi looked towards where Arata had pointed and his eyes widened as soon as he saw Sakura.
"Well, well, well...I see why you did switch target..." Danmachi said with a sly smile before he whipped his arm forward and grabbed Arata by the neck and raised him into the air.
"What...are...you...doing?" Arata struggled as he grabbed unto Danmachi's arm.
Danmachi's sly grin widened as he used his other hand to remove the tobacco from his lips before blowing smoke to Arata's face. The latter's face turned red coupled with the fact that he was choking. "...I'm fighting for her"
Arata tapped Danmachi's arm while shaking his head to which Danmachi released him and Arata crashed to the floor as he began to cough. He felt how wonderful it is to finally be able to breathe.
"You made a wise choice, lad... I'll take it from here" Danmachi said he stopped smiling and looked at Zen, he was examining him. The boy before him looked weak, which meant he was of a lower level than himself.
"I need five to bring me that fair maiden" Danmachi said and saw how the expression of the two teenagers didn't even change, he frowned before shaking it off as what can two people do against five of his best men.
The five men who walked out of his encirclement were slim tall men with monkey like arms. They approached Zen and Sakura steadily. Scarlet, Raven and the unconscious Katsu was beside them, the former two looked at the five me in fear.
"You seriously want to fight them yourself?" Zen's question pulled them out of their fear as they turned to look at him only to find his gaze on the girl beside him.
"I have to, you already just fought, let me just lay waste of these scums, besides I can't have you leveling up too much and leaving me behind... I'm sure you got a lot of exp from that guy" Sakura said.
"Alright, I'll sit here and watch, I guess I haven't properly seen you fight yet... Let me see how much you have grown and... " Zen said causing Sakura to look at him.
"...don't use that skill"
"... Alright" Sakura nodded after a pause. Zen took Xi and immediately moved towards the sidewalk and sat down, he brought out two packet of potato chips, opened one and handed it to Xi while he opened the other for himself.
He looked towards Scarlet and Raven who were looking at him with confusion,"you want some?"
"Are you not worried?" Raven asked with a frown as Zen's nonchalance was irking her.
"why should I be?...she wanted to deal with them herself, and I grant my woman any wish she wanted, moreover she's more dangerous than you imagine... I just hope those five men wouldn't underestimate her because she's a girl" Zen said as he put a potato chip in his mouth.
"Raven... " Scarlet called out which made Raven look at her, seeing the surprised expression on her face. She looked towards where Scarlet was looking at and was stunned. The five slim men were on the floor with blood spilling out of their necks.
"It just ended like that?" Raven was stunned.
Danmachi who had been smug earlier was frowning at this point, he had seen how it happened. His men just suddenly stopped moving and the girl just slit their throat. It was like they delivered themselves to her for her to kill.
"What did you just do?!" Danmachi asked to which Sakura just replied with a mocking gaze.
"I haven't warmed up yet... Send more meat... You want me?..." Sakura said as she licked her lips. "... sacrifices are meant to be made don't you think?"
Sakura's gift had been activated unconsciously and it was affecting her personality.
Danmachi nodded dazedly as he commanded his men to go and capture Sakura who chuckled. Even Arata joined the fray, as his eyes he disappeared before appearing and grabbing Sakura by the waist.
"You're in my arms now" Arata said with a grin.
Feeling his touch on her body, Sakura frowned as she turned to look at him. "You shouldn't have touched me"
"Curse: death"
As soon as she said this, Arata's eyes immediately dimmed as he collapsed to the floor, he was dead.
"No one can touch me other than Zen..." Sakura said as she took out a dagger from her space ring and held it in reverse grip. "...as birds of the same feather, you all would act as sacrificial offerings to satiate my anger"
Zen cringed as he heard those words and used his hands to cover his face in embarrassment, because Scarlet and Raven who had joined him to watch were looking at him with scrutiny.
"How could you taint such beauty?" Scarlet asked.
"So you are into that kind of thing, huh?" Raven squinted her eyes with a sly smile.
"I'm innocent..." Zen wanted to cry.
"Big brother, what did big sister mean by only you can touch her?" Xi looked up at him with innocent eyes. Zen who could see the mischief in her eyes groaned as he felt like finding a hole to bury himself.
