Chapter 101: Kazuma Saves Mei Mei
Bang!
The tombstone exploded, and Mei Mei swung the giant axe to break the seal.
Without hesitation, she chopped at the head of the Smallpox Deity.
The battle axe moved swiftly and sharply.
In response, the Smallpox Deity remained unflustered, clenching it's right fist and knocking it against the palm of it's left hand.
Bang!
A strange noise echoed through the area, resembling the muffled sound of a coffin lid closing.
A coffin-like structure materialized and sealed Mei Mei once more.
Clang!
The coffin hit the ground, shaking twice, and then it laid still.
"Tsk! My chest feels so tight."
The coffin was dark and cramped, preventing Mei Mei from using her battle axe.
Then, the massive tombstone descended once again, completely suppressing and sealing the entire coffin.
Mei Mei soon realized what was happening outside.
So that's it.
This is the technique?
Within its limited range, it automatically locks onto its target.
Moreover, such attacks arrive without any warning and are unavoidable.
The Smallpox Deity locks onto the enemy and starts a three-second countdown.
If you don't escape the coffin within three seconds, you'll be infected with a deadly virus and be sentenced to death.
Boom!
Smoke and dust rose, and the coffin shattered into pieces instantly.
Mei Mei and Ui Ui, who had emerged from the broken coffin, hid behind the tombstone and cautiously observed the Smallpox Deity in the open space.
At that moment, her fingers were already infected.
If she is infected again, the cursed energy within her body would become uncontrollable.
However, she already had a plan.
She would summon her crows and unleash bird strike.
But for that, someone needed to draw the Smallpox Deity's attention.
Thinking of this, Mei Mei glanced at Ui Ui and asked with a smile, "Are you willing to die for me?"
Faced with these heavy words, Ui Ui smiled calmly and said, "It is my honor to die for my elder sister..."
Before he could finish his sentence, a vortex appeared between the two of them, and Kazuma stepped out.
"Sorry, I'm late."
Kazuma pushed Ui Ui aside by a couple of inches, smiling warmly as he greeted Mei Mei.
Seeing this, Mei Mei let out a soft sigh, and her tense heart finally relaxed.
Ui Ui pouted in dissatisfaction.
It's that annoying guy again. He threatens him with summer homework.
However, this is the domian of that cursed spirit.
How did he get in?
Didn't they say he was the only one excluded?
Also, what's going on with his illusory state?
Kazuma clearly saw the confusion in their eyes and said, "The curtain hasn't been fully broken. I'm currently not in the real world, so I'm temporarily unaffected by the rejection."
"You can just think of it as me not being in this space for now."
Upon hearing this, Mei Mei remained unfazed, as she had seen it, but Ui Ui wasn't as calm.
Ui Ui exclaimed, "There's actually such a magical cursed technique?"
Kazuma said, "Alright, I don't have much time. Leave the cursed spirit to me."
Kazuma confidently strode towards the Smallpox Deity.
Ui Ui asked, "Sister, Kazuma... cough cough, can my brother-in-law escape the coffin seal of that cursed spirit?"
Ui Ui frowned in confusion.
Who gave him the confidence to walk forward so boldly?
Mei Mei said, "Well... the coffin appeared without warning. Even Kazuma might not be able to avoid it."
"Then, isn't he seeking death?" Ui Ui exclaimed.
Does that guy really want to show off in front of his sister?
Doesn't he value his life?
"Hehe."
Mei Mei smiled and explained, "He's not seeking death. It's just that he doesn't need to hide at all."
Hearing this, Ui Ui's eyes widened as he looked at Kazuma's back in disbelief.
No need to hide?
Right!
He mentioned before that he wasn't in this space.
If that's the case, doesn't it mean that he's temporarily invincible?!
Thinking of this, Ui Ui took a deep breath.
Isn't this ability too unfair?
If anyone else had said that, he'd never believe such a power existed, but these words came from his sister herself.
From her eyes, it seemef like she had great trust in this man.
It's truly enviable.
The next scene completely shattered the last shred of doubt in Ui Ui's heart.
He saw the Smallpox Deity's cursed technique activate again.
The coffin appeared once more without warning, sealing Kazuma.
But before the Smallpox Deity could be happy, Kazuma passed through the coffin.
The Smallpox Deity widened it's eyes in disbelief, staring at the man who had suddenly appeared in it's domain.
The coffin it had summoned doesn't work?
Impossible!
The Smallpox Deity roared and summoned a series of coffins to increase his power.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Multiple coffins materialized, one after the other, trapping Kazuma completely.
However, something strange happened again the next second.
Kazuma walked through the coffins once more.
Seeing this, the Smallpox Deity began to doubt his very existence.
Ui Ui, who was hiding behind the tombstone and watching the battle, was completely dumbfounded.
This... this is actually true?!
Kazuma doesn't need to hide at all.
The strange cursed spirit that had once forced him and his sister into a desperate situation, even making him willing to sacrifice himself, was no threat at all in front of Kazuma.
Just moments ago, his sister had said that this was just the tip of the iceberg of his abilities.
Thinking of this, Ui Ui felt a shiver run through his body.
No wonder his always-arrogant sister approved of Kazuma.
How strong is he?
Thinking of this, Ui Ui swallowed.
At this moment, Mei Mei spoke up, "Ui Ui, I once asked him if he was willing to die for me."
Ui Ui's breathing hitched.
Damn it!
That guy was asked first!
Ui Ui asked, "So, how did he answer you, sister?"
Mei Mei looked ahead with a smile, watching Kazuma.
She said, "His answer was to live only for himself, but he said that he'd make sure I had no worries."
"Obviously, he did."
Ui Ui breathed a sigh of relief and said, "What? He actually put himself first when answering. That answer's not good at all."
"If it were me, I would've definitely put you first without hesita..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Mei Mei interrupted him, "Really? But why do I feel that the former makes me more relieved?"
What do you think?
