Chapter 177: 102. Little Boy, Insignificant yet Grand (Two-in-One, 10,000-Word Mega Chapter)_5
"Director Fujishima wasn’t good either, after all, he’s older and not as agile," Fujiwara Reya replied indifferently.
"No problem!" Chief Priest Fujishima laughed instead of getting angry, staring coldly at him, "Go ahead and use any tricks you have. I want to see where a brat like you gets such confidence!"
Kasahara Asuka tugged worriedly at Fujiwara Reya’s sleeve, "Senior..."
"Don’t worry." Fujiwara Reya patted her head, then turned to look at the high platform.
It was coming!
He clenched his teeth.
*After all the things he had done ahead of time, it was finally time to reap the rewards.*
*Using every possible means to deceive and coerce Kawashima Miki, having Kasahara Fumi spread news, conspiring with Mrs. Kasahara, most of the preparations were all for this moment.*
*As the representative of Asakusa Shrine, seeking to regain its glory required him to demonstrate convincing strength. The help of the four directors was ultimately just external aid. Only by becoming strong himself would others truly respect and acknowledge him.*
*Fujishima, as Chief Priest, was the perfect stepping stone to reestablish glory. Both his status and strength made him the ideal choice.*
On the high platform, Mrs. Kasahara met Fujiwara Reya’s gaze.
Like a secret signal, she blinked, then coughed lightly and announced, "Just touch, no harm allowed!" She then looked at Kasahara Asuka and ordered, "Go back to the audience seat, and if you run out to cause trouble again, you’ll be grounded for a year!"
"Hmph!"
Kasahara Asuka pouted.
Reluctantly returning to the audience seat, she saw Hoshimi Rinko focused intently on Fujiwara Reya. Her eyes darted around mischievously; she joyfully leaned over and cheerfully greeted Hoshimi Rinko in her ear.
"Senior Hoshimi."
"Hmm?" Hoshimi Rinko frowned slightly.
"Senior Fujiwara patted Asuka’s head."
"..."
"His hands are so warm."
"..."
"I wish he could pat my head forever."
"..."
"Senior Hoshimi, poor you."
"?"
"Knowing each other for more than a year, and you haven’t even held hands yet."
"!"
Hoshimi Rinko’s breath caught, her fist clenched instantly.
"Heh heh~" Kasahara Asuka’s lips curled into a mischievous smile, lowering her voice to deliver another blow, "Senior also keeps two pairs of Asuka’s knee socks hidden, using them every night while inhaling Asuka’s scent. Heh heh~~ Senior Hoshimi, you’re just a loser."
"Ha, haha..."
Hoshimi Rinko let out a laugh filled with despair.
Her eyes turned cold, looking toward the brightly lit center of the hall, where every corner was illuminated. Fujiwara Reya, expressionless, exuded an incredible calmness, like a prince from a foreign land.
A moment of confrontation passed.
Fujiwara Reya reached into his collar, grasping the Shadow Beauty Blade he had taken from the system space, and slowly drew it from its sheath.
"Ching~"
The blood-red blade cast an eerie crimson glow over the hall.
*Just a simple action, yet it emanated a formidable aura.*
The crowd observing fell silent, their expressions slightly altered. Even the four directors’ expressions became much more solemn.
"Truly remarkable!" Mrs. Kasahara praised.
*She wanted to elevate Fujiwara Reya to the position of director to secure the Kanto Region’s interests. The better Fujiwara Reya performed, the less resistance there would be to recovering the director’s position. The more support the Kasahara family provided in his low times, the greater the future benefits.*
*The future promised a delightful win-win scenario.*
*Of course, all of this was contingent on him having enough strength on his own.*
"Indeed, it’s a fine blade." Director Fujishima furrowed his brow slightly, feeling some apprehension, yet his expression remained calm. "It’s just a pity you can’t break my defense barrier unless you show your true form!"
Upon saying this, he swiftly formed hand seals.
’Kotodama: Barrier!’
Once formed, the barrier appeared.
A pentagram emitting blue light lit up on the floor. The azure barrier covered two meters around him, forming a sturdy shell.
The light in the hall dimmed, then brightened a bit. Lowering his gaze, Fujiwara Reya could even clearly see his reflection on the wooden floor.
*Indeed.*
*Facing an opponent of the same level, he couldn’t break Chief Priest Fujishima’s barrier without using the Great Tengu form.*
*But...*
*He was a priest.*
*He had Shikigami!*
Under the protection of the barrier, Chief Priest Fujishima no longer controlled his emotions, shouting loudly!
"Boom!"
The energy around him instantly concentrated into an extremely sharp arrow shadow, aimed at Fujiwara Reya.
*Like his previous outburst, it was a full-power strike. Even though killing was not allowed in the Council Hall, if he injured someone, he’d at least retain some dignity.*
*If he could force the brat to reveal his true form, that would be even better.*
*Even if he couldn’t, the result would still be favorable for him. If Fujiwara Reya couldn’t show comparable strength, the boastful words he had spoken earlier would be proven false.*
*A seventeen-year-old at the rank of general?*
*Ridiculous.*
*Chief Priest Fujishima completely dismissed the possibility.*
*Therefore, the consequences of being countered were never part of his consideration.*
The arrow shadow moved at an astonishing speed, rushing toward the boy.
Chief Priest Fujishima’s decades of divine power were infused in it, regardless of any countermeasures by the boy in front, it would pierce through him.
Kasahara Fumi’s expression became stern, her sharp brows rising like swords.
The closest person to Fujiwara Reya, she was already prepared to step in. She didn’t know what tricks Fujiwara Reya had up his sleeve, but just in case, she was ready in advance.
