"Charge! Kill these mongrels, for our town!"
Countless warriors clad in overlapping iron and leather armor charged forward with polearms while the long-range infantry aimed the bows and arrows against their enemies in the forest.
All of the exceptional and trained warriors knew how they suddenly appeared in the green forest but the other infantry held by the clan leaders, they are in shock. However, there was no time for dawdling and hurrying with reinforcements, supporting each valiant warrior with a thirst for victory and peace.
At the distance, Yoichi glanced at his clan members with a knowing look and nodded while Satomi and Maki exchanged stares at each other and rushed to a different spot on the battlefield.
[Battle Instinct has been activated.]
[Against All Odds has been activated.]
[Calculating...]
[30,049 people have been enlisted as opponents. 30% overall attributes boosted by (Against All Odds).]
'Why the hell my boost percentage was weird? The last time this ability activated and gave me 10% for 100 people but how the hell is this 30% with over 30,000 opponents?'
[Based on the information—]
"Ah! I don't have time, let's enjoy this thrill!"
Yoichi fought against many opponents with his tanto and instantly killed them with just a swift slash in the neck, almost instantaneously appearing on each side of the battlefield and painting the whole green forest into blood-soaked land.
The battle was indescribable and chaotic due to the geographical location of the massive warfare. Both sides had different types of advantages like the quantity the crooked, unprincipled bandits or the quality of weaponry and unity of the warriors.
It's 10,000 warriors vs 30,000 bandits inside a cramped and bushy forest. Various types of unpredictable attacks of the bandits versus the standardized military combat styles are scattered across the atmosphere. Killing intentions and negative emotions are interlaced jointly to form a gloomy and bloodbath scene in history.
"I wonder what happened to those two stinky troublemakers... We'll see later..." Yoichi swiftly lacerated the bandit's neck as the gurgling sounds of blood came out of the bandit's mouth, ultimately resting forever in the forest as a fertilizer.
By the exceptional usage of his [Phantom Dispersion] and [Body Flicker], Yoichi harvested many ignorant and arrogant pricks on the battlefield. Each second of a minute, he ripped them apart as the smell of iron permeated him, becoming a blood-stained killing machine.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill them all!!!"
On the side, Yoichi glanced at Yasataka, a burly man with packed muscles in the bloodthirsty, cold gleaming aura that skyrocketed and decimated all the warriors in half with a brutal swing of his axe.
Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!
Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!
Earth Release: Bottomless Swamp!
'Shit! What the fuck is these mysterious skills? How could they launch a fire, and wind with softening the ground?'
In a mystical scenario, a blazing gigantic fireball along with the tempestuous winds swept away the burly man, who wanted to escape the horrifying and bizarre techniques but was unable to flee due to the ground becoming muddy like a quicksand.
With no other choice, Yasataka swam inside the swamp but his comrade didn't fare any better. All of his cronies in the back got annihilated by the fearsome combination of fiery flame, strong winds, and an inescapable quagmire.
On the front, Ryoma, Natsumi, and Sumiko released their mystical ability as the bandits gulped their saliva involuntarily in fear due to the exceptional and mysterious techniques they fired.
"Yasataka!!! You fucking imbecile! How can you die in front of 3 kids? What a fucking disgrace!"
"Ah! You bastard! Why are you attacking us?!"
"Shit, are they the spies from the town?!"
"Aaarrgghh! All of you are crazy!"
On the backlines, Nobushi was blocked by Makima as her psychic powers made an entrance and created a breathing room for the children to showcase their talents by controlling the weak minds of the bandits and killing their former comrades.
'What the hell is wrong with these people? Also, how could they release such devastating attacks?! Unless... These people have secret inheritances from the past!'
"Argh! Die, you snotty brats!"
At that moment, the earth suddenly shook as a burly man sprouted out of the ground and made a heroic leap by using his muscular legs with his massive axe, ready to decapitate the kids in his landing.
However, the three children were alarmed and utilized [Body Flicker], going to Makima's spot with serious expressions on their faces. The brawny guy they thought was deceased became alive yet the hunky man was filled with gashes and bruises due to the friendly fires and mystical attacks on him.
"My lady, pardon my comrade's unruly behavior, may I ask for your name and how you get your valuable power?" Nobushi greeted Makima and secretly licked his lips. Even so, his avaricious thoughts never escaped Makima's mind-reading control.
"Fufufufu~ I am sorry, I don't entertain stinky brutes like you two but I am impressed! One extinct monkey in the forest has distinct manners, how wonderful. Maybe your gorilla friend could learn from your manners and become two extinct scoundrels!"
Makima sarcastically replied, earning a veiny glare from Nobushi and Yasataka, extremely humiliated.
"Pweh! Bitch! I will completely rape you once I am done beating your charming beauty! I am sad about your futile attempts, maybe surrender now and we could talk in bed! Hehehehe!"
'Oh no, I pray for your soul!'
Nobushi's wicked laugh made Makima's golden eyes gleam in the cold glare while the three children took a step back and trembled.
"Invasive Control!"
"Maybe try your luck next life, I am amazed at your guts... See you!" Makima clenched her hand with her psionic control and extraordinarily invaded Nobushi's consciousness with aggression.
'What?! Why I can't talk? My body...was out of my control! Bitch! I will kill you!'
Looking at Makima's cold smile, Nobushi's control of his body gradually slipped out of his power as his eyes went into a blank state and instantly attacked Yasataka, who was at his side all along.
"Nobushi! You bastard—"
In an instant, Yasataka's intuition grew tense but it was too late, Nobushi had already pierced into his heart. The hunky and muscular idiot with his last strength punched Nobushi's head and landed his attack until he plopped into the ground, forever gone in dreamland.
On the other hand, Nobushi's head flew far away as his body also fell to the ground, dead without even having a chance to struggle back against Makima's incredible psychic control.
"Let's help our warriors against these brutes!" Makima clapped her hands and waved off the blood on her clothes as the children couldn't help but sigh in relief from the scary scene earlier.
'What would happen if I was in that position?'
The children instinctively shivered yet regained their wandering minds and left the scene with Makima, helping the warriors fighting and destroying a bunch of thugs nearby.
"What about Satomi and Maki? Let's see Paul Allen's— Ahem! Hehehe..." Yoichi finished watching the scene and left the spot without anyone noticing as he annihilated the group of bandits near him.
Although the weird and complex overall boosts of his passive ability were somewhat odd, 30% was still enough to kill all of them without any sweat in his body. Not that he was complaining or something, it's just that suspicious about the temporary upgrade in his attributes.
Then, he went to look for Satomi's and Maki's battle ahead of the gruesome bloodbath in the forest.
->->->->->->->->->->->->->->->->->->->->->->->->
"Seimei! You scheming rat! How dare you show your face here with your numerous crimes, huh?!"
"What do you mean, Maki? As if you are loyal to that dog emperor! Look at yourself, you are enjoying what I have done and planned all by yourself and your wicked clan. Tell me, Maki, what did you see in Yoichi that you became his dog?!"
On the slaughtering battlefield, Satomi and Maki managed to find their prey, Shin and Seimei who were fighting against the horde of warriors with thrill and delight in their faces.
Eventually, two pairs of exceptional individuals with fearsome strength and brilliance began their show-off, an eye-to-eye exchange with a readied stance whenever someone started the fight.
"Yo, what's up?! Are you the Blood God around these parts? Can you show us a trick?" Satomi was picking up her ears with her pinky fingers and completely ignoring Shin's angry stare.
"Blood God Art: Ensnaring Tendrils!"
"Hahaha, no one disrespected me like this and I will make an exemplary out of you!" Shin was incensed and revealed his tendril-like powers as the vines shot up to entangle Satomi's body.
"Hah! Stupid bitch! That's what you get for— What?? How can't I absorb her whole flesh?!"
Scoffing, Shin was elated until a shocking and mystical scenario happened to his tendrils. His vines were interweaved directly into Satomi's figure but as if there was a space between his tendrils and Satomi, a vast space, so close yet so far.
"I must say...your ability was disgusting! I am amazed at the sheer nauseating powers you had. Maki, do you want a switch? I will be completely bored with the human-plant skills this guy has." Satomi shouted as Maki rolled her eyes nevertheless switching opponents with Satomi.
Both of them wanted to fight for a long time, especially with these two troublemakers in their front as a punching bag from all the stress and psychological pressure they felt in these years.
Shin and Seimei felt the tension in the atmosphere, not knowing Satomi's invincible defense and raking their minds to find the weakness in its indestructibility and despairing infinite spaces between Satomi and their attacks.
"Let's start the fight, shall we? I hope you'll give us a great time or else..." Maki's chivalrous smile shone in her teeth as she summoned her spear through the ring Yoichi gave her for 6 months.
All inside their spot were mangled corpses of both bandits and warriors, trees painted in red blood, and their clothes were dripping in gore red.
'Yoichi Murakami was not here to protect his wives, we have a chance to defeat these bitches in broad daylight!'
Both Shin and Seimei nodded as a bunch of tendrils shot out of his body and shikigami with various colors spread across the land in different colors and structures.
'Akashic, give me a popcorn, please~'
[Affirmative.]
*Crunch*
"How exciting! I have a first-class seat in this battle! Will the plot armor save them or what? We will see!" Yoichi ate his popcorn in relish, the battle was about to start.
