Chapter 60 – Bond with Fight

“I am Tsuchigumo, I hope you give me a good fight, or I will be disappointed!”

“Introducing ourselves first, okay. I am Nura Riku, the next Lord of Pandemonium.”

After I introduced myself, Tsuchigumo stopped moving for a second before his mask-like mouth curved upward into a smile. He then spewed a white thread from his mouth, making a makeshift ring around us. This meant he wanted to have one on one fight, good enough.

“Nura, huh. Don’t disappoint me! Where is your Hyakki Yakkou? I remembered Nura’s strongest technique, he need his Hyakki Yakkou to do it!”

I relaxed my stance and tapped my sword against my shoulder as I said, “He’s too weak then. Against you, me alone is enough.”

“Hahahahaha, let’s prove it!”

Tsuchigumo rushed towards me and swung his pipe down at me. I dodged his attack by stepping sideways to the left, but he sent a punch with his second right hand as soon as I stepped to the left. A grin was plastered on my face and I jumped upward to dodge his punch.

As I jumped, I swung my sword at the incoming punch and managed to slash Tsuchigumo’s second hand. That slash was deep enough as the spiritual energy of Tsuchigumo gushing out from the wound. But, he didn’t care about that and sent a barrage of punches towards me.

Because I was in the middle of the air, I was not able to move freely. I created a foothold using my youjutsu and jumped around the air to dodge his punches. Tsuchigumo’s punch was packed with a lot of strength, each time he punched, a part of the castle was destroyed. The ring that was made from his thread wasn’t affected though.

While I was dodging his attack, I occasionally send a slash aimed at his hand. Now, his hands were full of slashes wound that was gushing out a little spiritual energy from his body.

“Hahahahaha, don’t keep dodging like that!” As Tsuchigumo shouted that, he jumped back to gain a distance before leaping towards me with his left hands positioned in front of his body.

He was tackling me with his enormous body, but unfortunately for him, I had used Meikyo Shisui all this time. I changed my technique and used Kyouka Suigetsu. Because I was in the air, I instantly jumped down while leaving a fake body in the air to fool Tsuchigumo.

But, he was not fooled that easily, when he was near my fake, he realized it and increased his speed. Tsuchigumo’s body made contact with my Fake, it was bursting into a black cloud. When Tsuchigumo’s body crashed into his thread, and suddenly he changed his direction as he bounced back.

His physical ability was truly amazing! Maybe he was at the level of an evil dragon, or maybe even Crom Cruach if it was a physical ability alone. I used Touki and increased my physical ability to the maximum.

I stood in my place as I looked at Tsuchigumo that approached me at a high speed. I called Nenekirimaru sheath and held it with my left hand as I sheathed Nenekirimaru back. I lowered my stance as my right hand was positioned on top of Nenekirimaru’s handle and my left hand still holding its sheath tightly.

When I saw Tsuchigumo was almost reaching me, I dashed forward as I draw Nenekirimaru instantly from its sheath. I could feel Nenekirimaru made contact with Tsuchigumo’s hand and it went through easily.

As we passed each other, loud thuds were heard three-time. As soon as I heard the thuds sound, I turned to look towards Tsuchigumo and I finally realized something. My left hand was injured too. Tsuchigumo’s attack managed to graze my left hand and left a bad bruise and destroyed the left sleeves of my clothes.

I saw Tsuchigumo was looking down at his three arms that were on the ground before he laughed, “Haahahahaha, This is great!”

Tsuchigumo picked his arm and attached it back to his body one by one. As he attached one arm, he spitted on the wound and it instantly attached back like normal. He did it three times as I just looked at him while healing my left arm with Senjutsu.

As he finished attaching his arms back, I also finished healing myself with Senjutsu. Tsuchigumo turned at me while picking his pipe that was thrown because of his punches at the beginning of our fight. He put the pipe into his mouth and sat down.

“You are good, but it seems you were holding back. I must say that you were the first, no, the third strongest youkai that I knew. First being Seimei, second being Hagoromo Gitsune, and you were third! Assuming the strength that you used earlier was your full strength that is!”

Because he was relaxed, I approached him and sat in front of him as I put Nenekirimaru back to its sheath and held it with my left hand.

“You said it yourself, I was holding back. I am stronger than Hagoromo Gitsune because I had seen her strength myself. I don’t know about Seimei though.”

“Is that so? It seems interesting. Tell me, the reason why you wanted me in your Hyakki Yakkou. I have never joined a Hyakki Yakkou before because I am strong. And I must admit, you are strong! You gained my respect.”

“The thing is like this, Tsuchigumo. I heard from Hagoromo Gitsune about something that you like.”

Tsuchigumo was surprised when I said that. He put one of his right hands on his chin and leaned a little towards me to hear my word clearer.

“I’m listening. A Nura was talking with Hagoromo Gitsune, you are the first.”

“I heard you love to fight. Especially with a strong opponent, or against an army. This is the deal. I have a big fight coming to me. I estimated the enemy would bring around 3000 fallen angels. I will explain about fallen angels to you later if you don’t know about it.”

“Kukuku… Hahahahaha, interesting. So your enemy is an army of 3000? I’m in. But, that doesn’t mean I will join your Hyakki Yakkou.”

That’s enough. With Tsuchigumo joining the fight against Kokabiel, then it’s enough. I can win this. I smiled at Tsuchigumo and extended my right fist.

“Nice to have you.”

Tsuchigumo extended one of his right fists too and bumped it against my fist.

“As long as there is a good fight, you can call me anytime. I will stay in this place, just give me a head up when the army came.”
