CRACK!!!
Rui flattened his skull without even the slightest hesitation.
The unconscious Martial Master died then and there.
The first casualty of the Master-level battle had occurred.
It was not missed.
Rui turned as his eyes swept the battlefield, meeting the bloodlusting gaze of the Sekigaharan Masters. The elation he had felt from gaining more experience was gone. It was in the first place. It was an emotion that had no place in a battlefield, breeding immense complacency that almost got him killed.
"You want to kill me?" His furious voice echoed across the battlefield. "Well…"
His eyes narrowed.
In their depths stirred an endless darkness.
A void.
"…Here I am."
