I Can See Health Bars in Real Life-Chapter 366 - 22: Another Peaceful Day (Part 2)
Even those who didn’t see what happened due to distance and angle could feel an inexplicable terror emerge, akin to the sudden appearance of a monster in a horror game without any warning.
It was a primal fear sensed from the depths of their being, like being stalked by a predator, leaving cold sweat on people’s foreheads and filling them with dread.
Even those who had long fled the area due to earlier chaos felt the same. They retreated, scrambling and rolling, only stopping when they crashed into others or hit a railing or wall. From a distance, they watched the scene unfold, as amazed as everyone else in the city, with expressions of astonishment.
On the bustling streets of Tokyo, it lingered among the buildings.
In the sky above that part of the city, an enormous form loomed over people’s heads.
The shock left their minds blank, unable to think calmly. They felt as if the entire world had become unreal and dreamlike, strongly suspecting they were dreaming...
"Wha-what exactly is this..."
"Are they filming a tokusatsu special? But, but..."
Only by witnessing this scene firsthand could one understand the magnitude of the shock, especially with the skyscrapers as a backdrop, highlighting the enormity of the creature in reality. Combined with the overwhelming, terrifying aura felt regardless of distance, a suffocating wave of fear and panic swept over them...
Countless people at this moment were left with lasting psychological scars, likely developing a fear of giant creatures.
As for Kaguya, who bore the brunt, she naturally withstood even greater pressure. Even though her wounds had healed visibly fast in this short time, with no signs of the severe injury from having her heart ripped out, externally showing no trace of harm.
Yet at this moment, facing the Nine-tailed Demon Fox and being locked onto by those enormous golden-red eyes, Kaguya still felt immense pressure, as if even her Celestial Maiden Body was not enough to ensure safety.
Despair was out of the question...
But the anger had already reached the sky!
What, does this Demon have a screw loose, playing the fool to trick the cunning? Is it even possible to be so outrageous!
Especially in retrospect, considering her previous smugness, believing in her shrewd plans, and plotting in vengeful delight on how to torture the two, sure of her actions... This insidious and cunning Demon was left feeling entirely unwell, practically exploding with rage.
This feeling of having victory in hand, smug arrogance, only for the situation to sharply reverse, resulting in a slap in the face, really easily made one feel like a Clown. Most would find it particularly humiliating, let alone her, who could even manipulate a Celestial Maiden, always seeing herself as the most special one.
Kaguya’s ample chest heaved incessantly as she gritted her teeth and said fiercely:
"Good! Very good! This time I misjudged! But you really went to great lengths, despite your status, to do such a thing..."
As she spoke, she glared malevolently at the Witch opposite her, her eyes full of anger: "But to go to this extent, is it just for this dead person?"
It couldn’t be that the other party was merely pretending to be weak to catch the strong while waiting for her here, and besides, even this Witch seemed extremely shocked at the moment, unable to maintain a calm demeanor, making it clear she also didn’t know about this, probably having previously misjudged it like herself.
So what more is there to say, with such a disguise, following this Witch, is it not obvious what the purpose is?
On the other side, Kikyo also seemed momentarily stunned, having heard Kaguya’s words in disbelief.
The Nine-tailed Demon Fox’s golden-red eyes burned like fiery flames, observing the small figure within, then lightly flicked its tail, making Kaguya’s heart leap in fright, her figure suddenly blurring and disappearing into the air, while a blazing flame simultaneously ignited explosively and flashed by.
It felt as if a long fuse in the void was ignited, the flame instantly racing from one side to the other.
It pierced through the spot where Kaguya had been and the thousand-meter space behind her, causing the glass of the buildings on both sides of the empty street below to shatter, scattering countless fragments, with a long, deep trench appearing in the middle of the street, no longer just burn and scorched marks, but a crystalline crimson.
At the trench’s end lay an empty intersection, with a massive crater as if a meteor had struck. Its depth was unfathomably exaggerated, also containing crystalline crimson within, where earth and stone had melted and re-solidified into crystalline protrusions, still radiating the heat and crimson of the melting process, with flowing lava...
"Damn it!"
Accompanied by swirling cherry blossoms, Kaguya appeared mid-air in another direction, feeling both frustrated and anxious: "With such Power, there’s nothing you couldn’t obtain. If you and I joined forces..."
Her words were cut off, even before she barely appeared, as a massive, bloodthirsty mouth lunged violently to devour her!
