Phew....

　Yi Cheng showed a smile that said he was a cocky young man after Yujin's words, but his eyes weren't smiling that much. No, it could be said that he was inwardly surprised.
　It's a move that Yuto just showed.

(It's a brilliant move. It's a brilliant move, piercing the enemy's emptiness and cutting the truth. You are the late son of the late Sanzenin, and how easy it was to get in your pocket....

　I'm impressed, but I have another thought.
　I felt it when I checked this boy on the monitor...............and it's similar.
　You will be able to find a lot more than just a few of them.
　However, I haven't seen that gifted person in a long time.
　I've known him for a long time, but I still don't know his identity.
　Perhaps the name I'm hearing isn't the real name either.
　But the man who always showed up in situations that were more serious than this for the agency.
　That.........another rank SS.
　A close-combat type swordsman, but also able to manipulate mid-range and long-range attack techniques and powerful sealing techniques, a spirit swordsman and all-around ability that can truly face the enemy in all ranges.

(Similar ... to Ryou's movements.)

　He was also a companion who had teamed up with him since he was young to complete difficult requests, and he was the strongest spirit swordsman Yi Cheng thought of.
　In this boy, who showed a fleeting glimpse of that Ryo's face, Yi Cheng unconsciously felt a sense of dependability.

''The feeling of this battle.......isn't it nostalgic?''

　A change appears in Yi Cheng's expression.
　His face has a stern expression in front of the enemy, but his eyes are fearless, as if he is enjoying himself somehow. You can even feel his youthfulness, which is unimaginable from his always stern expression.
　It was Sanzenin Mizushige who had alerted Yi Cheng, the head of the agency and head of the prestigious Shitenji family, to the fact that he had to kill him on the spot, and even made him decide immediately that he had to kill him.
　Even though he knows that the battle with Mizushige will not be easily settled even if he is the only one.
　However, when I look at the boy named Yuto Dou Dou Dou Dou, it adds color to his fighting spirit and makes me look forward to fighting a difficult enemy.
　And the other rank SS beside him seemed to be doing the same.

''Mr. Yi Cheng, shall I do the same? It's about time I got tired of rehab.''

　The Holy Sword Excalibur held by the Sword Saint Alfred Arkwright who said so was enveloped in a blur of light, and the intensity of the light was seen to increase.

　At this time, Doberk, who was lending his shoulder to Julian behind Mizushige, clicked his tongue.
　Although Mizushige's participation in the battle and backup had saved his life, Doberg was astonished at Mizushige's ability and felt reassured at the same time, but the situation wasn't getting better.

''Hey hey I'm thankful that the SS are both willing to do it and I'm thankful, though.

　He might have been able to escape if he had immediately made some kind of check and escaped from the scene when Mizushige was covering him.
　However, Mizushige did not seem to have any intention of doing so.
　I don't know what Mizushige's purpose was. Even Doberk, who had lived for a long time, honestly couldn't understand the riddle-like exchange between Mizushige and Yi Cheng.
　However, there might be something that only a spirit user could understand from the way Yi Cheng looked at him.

(I was surprised at the monk's ability, but I don't care what the purpose of this retreat is. It's how to retreat now........ I'm on the verge of wiping out all of Marinos' non-contractors. It's going to be a dead end any more.............hmm?

　As Doberk looked grim, suddenly Julian's eyes opened and he stepped down from Doberk's shoulder and stood on his own feet.

'Hey, Doberk. Apparently I can't watch Doberk's struggling nature.

Julian!　That tone..........Finally, you're back. And what's that, the way you talk....

We'll talk later, Doberk. Let's hurry up and get out of here. This is a no-win situation, haha.

　Julian gives a carefree smile when he says that, as if it's someone else's idea.

'It was your idea... or rather, the other you. Well, okay, but what are you going to do, it's going to be very difficult to escape at this point.

'Yeah, well, I have an idea. Also, I need Mizushige-kun to come. He's good. I'm sure he'll be able to help us.

You're a recluse?　 I'll let you do the thinking. You tell me what to do. O'Sullivan can move too, right?

　Dobek said and stood ready behind Mizushige, ready to respond immediately to Julian's instructions.
