"PALACE OF THE FROZEN RINGS"

“Oh?” The Daemon chuckled. “I'm sorry to say, but I'm not leaving here till I put down the awakened Daemon in my honour as a member of the great Yuka’s clan.”

“Kiyomi Shimizu,” Kai called out to his challenger to her shock. “Shocked? You should be.”

‘The great Yuka…’ Kai solilioquized. ‘Her portrait was in The Proprietor’s Office. Could she be amongst the Daemons that fought alongside Owari to seal Cosmos? If that's the case, we are supposed to be allies. I guess it can't be helped. The physical things of this world have poisoned the minds of humans and Daemons alike. How unfortunate…’

Kiyomi adopted a stance, but Kai kept on moving with the shadow board opposite her direction. The latter did not seem to view the bounty hunter as an opponent, and it pissed her off.

She surged her core energy which had cryokinetic properties. The entire surrounding became a blizzard, but Kai simply still ignored it and continued moving.
