When the hodgepodge world of anime meets the shadow king

"Swish, swish, swish!" Dozens of cone-shaped spikes made of [Shadow Power] emerged from the air beside Kitahara Xiao.

He waved his hand, and the spikes quickly flew towards Yegritza in the distance.

Seeing the imminent attack, Yegrit remained calm.

His figure quickly disappeared into the shadows, and his missed attacks could only sink into the endless darkness.

The next moment, Yegrit's greatsword slashed down heavily from over Kitahara Akira's head.

He raised his hand and used the arm armor on his left forearm to block Yegrit's attack.

"Dang!" With a crisp sound of metal clashing, the ground beneath Kitahara Xiao's feet quickly cracked.

Zooming out, Kitahara Akira is wearing a set of black armor, with faint blue flames flickering in the gaps (reference picture attached)

[Northern Shadow Style·Shadow Armor]

This is one of the abilities that Kitahara Akatsuki created by combining the advanced [Power of Shadow] with [Kitakage Ryu] through the shaping ability of [Kagutsuchi-no-Mikoto].

By gathering a large amount of [Shadow Power] into a set of close-fitting armor, it increases strength, speed, defense, etc., making it an all-rounder.

The only drawback is that because it consumes too much [Shadow Power], the energy that can be used to summon ghost soldiers will be greatly reduced when using this set of armor, and can only be restored slowly.

"Bang!" While Yegrit's attack was being blocked, Kitahara Akira gathered his strength with his right hand and hit Yegrit's lower abdomen hard.

Yegrit, who was not known for his defensive ability, retreated after being hit.

Dozens of black hemp ropes made of [Shadow Power] emerged from the darkness around them and entangled Yegrit's slender body.

This is the inspiration he got from Doctor Strange

The next moment, the rough hemp rope turned into thorns and pierced into the gap of Yegrit, hindering his movement.

Seeing this, Yegrit quickly swung his weapon and cut off all the thorns with his perfect swordsmanship.

But it's too late

Kitahara Akatsuki, who was pursuing the victory, clenched his fist, and a huge long-handled sickle quickly solidified into shape.

[Northern Shadow Flow·Catalyst], the principle is the same as [Northern Shadow Flow·Catalyst], but the consumption is much smaller

Yegrit was a beat slower and was hit hard by the sickle. He flew nearly a hundred meters away due to the huge inertia.

Kitahara Xiao looked down at the sickle in his hand and shook his head. The power was not what he expected.

Waving his hand, the sickle was transformed into [Shadow Power] again. After recovering it, Kitahara Akira looked at Yegrit who was rushing towards them from a distance.

“Let’s stop here for today.”

Yegrit nodded and changed his pace from running to walking.

Ever since Kitahara Akatsuki was embarrassed by Yegrit's outrageous speech in front of everyone in the service club that day, he has been looking for Yegrit to "learn from each other" from time to time, and he can also experiment with new abilities by the way.

Of course, Kitahara Akira always wins.

"King" Yegrit walked up to Kitahara Akira and said, "I apologize for my previous remarks. It seems that you have not neglected your training because of your obsession with beauty."

Kitahara Xiao glanced at Yegrit. Is this what he cares about?

"To be honest, your current strength is stronger than I expected before you fell asleep. I thought you would only be able to reach C+ at best when I woke up."

"Okay, stop flattering me. You were so much stronger in your prime that you could have hung me up and beaten me."

Kitahara Akira estimated that Yegrit's prime should be around A-level, but the reality is that he is only B-level and has hindered the other party's recovery.

"I'm just telling the truth, and your potential far exceeds mine." Yegrit did not deny it.

The two left the shadow space and returned home

Since obtaining the [Power of Shadow], Kitahara Akatsuki's control over shadows has greatly increased. Now he can freely enter and exit the nearly infinite shadow space.

It's a pity that we still can't bring living things in, but at least it can be used as a training ground, so we don't have to harm the greenery in the suburbs of Chiba.

"Oh, my king," Yegrit seemed to remember something.

"Hmm?" Kitahara Akira, who was drinking the lemonade brought by Bruce, snorted.

"Ms. Kato and Ms. Yukinoshita, who do you want to choose as the queen?"

"Puff!" The water from Kitahara Akira's mouth spurted out, splashing Bruce's face.

"What are you talking about?!"

"You are a king, so you should have multiple wives, but there is only one queen." Yegrit thought that Kitahara Xiao didn't understand, so he explained seriously.

Beiyuan Xiao held his forehead and said, "Why are you asking this?"

Yegrit said honestly, "I need to train the queen's child in the best way so that he can be qualified to inherit your throne in the future."

"...why do you care about this? It doesn't fit your personality." Kitahara Akira asked back

Although it was a long time ago and he couldn't remember it clearly, but was Yegrit so gossipy in the comics? Probably not, right?

"I have explained to you that the person in your memory and I only have the same appearance and abilities. Our personalities are independent and our characters are naturally different," Yegrit said seriously.

After a few perfunctory words, Yegrit finally returned to the shadow.

"Alas..." Kitahara Xiao sighed helplessly

He felt that Yegrit was just like those parents who urged marriage.

Although he himself has no parents (laughs)

Kitahara Akira took out his phone and opened Line. There was one important thing he couldn't forget.

【Innocent male tenor】: Are you there?

【Love is like fire】:What are you doing?

[Pure male high school student]: There is a big job, undercover, do you want to do it?

That's right, his plan is to have Natsume Bunjie infiltrate the organization where Muzan Kibutsuji is.

He has been feeling uneasy ever since he forced Muzan Kibutsuji to reveal information about this organization during the fireworks festival.

He didn't think that this place where so many powerful villains gathered was a charity organization.

As the saying goes, the best defense is offense. He decided to collect intelligence, take the initiative, and defeat them one by one.

But after so many days, Jarvis couldn't find any useful information on the Internet, and the plan came to a standstill.

It just so happened that he remembered that the other party seemed to take the initiative to recruit people with extraordinary abilities, and Muzan Kibutsuji was an example.

So Kitahara Akatsuki thought of Natsume Bunjie, who was the most idle at the moment. The other party's strength should be enough.

【Love Like Fire】: Undercover? What does that mean?

Kitahara Akira sent the file over

【Love Like Fire】: It’s a bit dangerous...

【Pure Love Male High School】: 20 million

Although they are friends, Kitahara Akatsuki is not so crazy as to take advantage of the other party for free.

As the old saying goes, brothers should settle accounts clearly.

【Love Like Fire】: The boss is so generous! When will it start?

[Innocent Male High School]: Just do whatever you want, safety first, if there is a risk of exposure, just do it

【Love is like fire】: Dumb tape, I am the strongest!

[Innocent Male High School]: I won’t tell you who was hurt by the alien last time.

【Love is like fire】: Ahem, that was just my carelessness. I didn't dodge.

[Innocent Male High School]: The other team members may be some big villains. When they come to fight you, you must not lose too badly.

【Love is like fire】: Will win!

Kitahara Akira shook his head. It's good that this guy has confidence.

"Ding~" He was about to turn off the screen of his phone when an unexpected person sent him a message
