The Pirated Onmyoji of the Detective World

Not only that, but a strange figure, with either bat wings or pterosaur wings, appeared above the two of them, circling continuously and occasionally emitting strange howls.

"Is this... a monster extravaganza?!" Looking at the strange creatures around him, Aragaki Yuu glanced helplessly at Koizumi Akako beside him and muttered.

"Clear!"

As the armored knight in front of them issued a strange command, the surrounding monsters instantly sprang into action. Although their movements differed, they all rushed towards Aragaki Yu and Koizumi Akako without prior agreement.

Upon witnessing this scene, Aragaki Yu and Koizumi Akako instantly realized that the situation was unlikely to end well.

What follows is an inevitable battle!

Koizumi Akako and Aragaki Yu exchanged a glance, and she immediately understood the meaning in Aragaki Yu's eyes. Although she was a little worried, she immediately left Aragaki Yu's side, brandishing her scythe, and immediately went to meet the armored knight in front of her.

Chapter 499 Controlling both killing and burying

At the same time, Yaodao-hime, who was protecting Aragaki Yu, also pushed off with her feet under Aragaki Yu's command and rushed towards the motorcycle armor woman behind her.

At the same time, Chihime, holding a giant conch shell, and Hotaru, holding a dandelion, also appeared beside Aragaki Yu, blocking the charging toad monster and crocodile monster.

The little tengu and the snow woman were tightly entangled in mid-air by a strange creature with dragonfly wings and pterosaur wings.

Princess Kaguya obediently floated beside Yuu Aragaki, taking over the role of the Yuki-onna (snow woman) in protecting him.

Ahead, Koizumi Akako's giant scythe and the armored knight's spear clashed repeatedly.

With the added advantage of riding a similarly armored mount, the armored knight's impact was clearly superior to Koizumi Akako's. As a result, in the clash between the spear and the giant scythe, Koizumi Akako was forced to retreat repeatedly.

Of course, she also kept flashing the gem in her hand around the armored knight, and with her more agile skills, she would occasionally slash at the armored knight with her scythe.

However, all that was produced were the crisp metallic clanging sounds, and amidst the bursts of sparks, Koizumi Akako felt her hands ache from the impact.

What surprised her even more was that, before she had used the enchanted scythe, even the hardest alloy in the world would not have been able to withstand the continuous blows, yet the opponent's armor remained completely undamaged.

As the scythe blade struck the opponent's armor once more, and in that instant when she was forced back by the knight's lance, Koizumi Akako finally noticed—

It turned out that every time his weapon struck the opponent's armor, the struck part of the armor would be covered with a strange, dim red light, blocking his blade.

"Hmph!" Koizumi Akako snorted coldly. After crushing a ruby ​​hidden under her cloak, the blade of her giant scythe, burning fiercely, charged towards the armored knight once more. "As expected, even this guy is no ordinary person!"

As for Yaodaoji's side...

When the armored figure on the motorcycle saw the Demon Blade Princess rushing towards him, he raised his hand without hesitation and aimed it at her in the path.

boom!

boom!boom!boom!boom!

In an instant, several burning, spinning fireballs were launched from her palms like cannonballs.

Clusters of fireballs, like streaks of red meteors, locked onto the demon sword princess as she dragged her sword away.

Facing the incoming fireball, Yaodaoji showed no fear and slashed at the fireball in front of her.

This strike, though launched later, arrived faster than expected. The blade's energy, created by slicing through the air, exploded at a speed faster than any fireball, gradually spreading out in the air and colliding violently with all the fireballs.

In a single exchange, the blade's energy devoured all the fireballs, transforming into a heatwave that swept towards the Demon Blade Princess and the armored figure opposite her.

The sheer scale of the formation was so great that even Princess Kaguya, who was several meters away, instinctively summoned a bamboo-joint barrier to protect herself and Aragaki Yu.

Meanwhile, the little tengu and the pterosaur monster tacitly abandoned their battle on the ground and engaged in a fierce duel in the sky.

Both were incredibly fast in their attacks and defenses. Although neither was armed, every move they made carried immense power. During the fight, their bodies jolted violently, accompanied by the whooshing sound of air being cut, as their wings collided incessantly.

Or perhaps it was the pterosaur monster's frantic claw strikes, or the little tengu's cunning arrow attacks. The two sides went back and forth, and suddenly a strong wind rose around them, making the whole sky seem to be shattered, creating an extremely intense atmosphere.

On the contrary, the confrontation between the Snow Woman and the dragonfly monster with dragonfly wings fighting alongside her seemed the most peaceful.

Countless dragonflies, each the size of a fist, flew from behind the strange man, whistling towards the Snow Woman like miniature fighter jets. His bizarre tail, attached to his back, could shoot out giant, gleaming needles that would occasionally strike the Snow Woman.

A blizzard swirled around the Snow Woman, and with a wave of her hand, snowflakes condensed into ice spikes in front of her, which, amplified by the blizzard, shot towards the swarm of dragonflies in the air like arrows.

In an instant, it was as if fireworks were going off in mid-air. As the dragonflies collided with the ice arrows, the dragonfly's severed limbs and ice crystal fragments were scattered all over the ground.

Chihime was constantly harassed by the toad monster. While the conch shell was able to defend itself against the toad monster's venomous tongue, Chihime, who had never seen modern firepower, suffered greatly from the bullets fired from the machine gun on the toad monster's arm, and was left looking rather disheveled.

After appearing in this world, Senhime, whose strength had been greatly reduced, did not know what the fiery thing was, but she was certain that if she were hit by it, it would probably hurt.

For a moment, the two sides were at a stalemate.

As Aragaki Yu watched the battles that seemed to be evenly matched for the time being, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

Just as Aragaki was considering which side should gain the advantage first, the battle on another battlefield, which he had subconsciously overlooked, suddenly ended.

A slightly frightened cry was heard, followed by a loud bang, and the crocodile monster was smashed into the wall by Yingcao with a dandelion hammer.

Yuu Aragaki and Princess Kaguya, who was protecting him, stared in disbelief at the direction of Hotaru, who was holding a dandelion and panting heavily as she watched the dust rise in front of her.

The crocodile monster that had been confronting her had vanished without a trace.

Judging from the fact that half of the wall has collapsed and the entire building is cracked, even if the crocodile monster that was blasted into the wall has high defense, it's probably going to be in for a rough time.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, the crocodile monster embedded in the wall fell straight down and slammed hard onto the ground, motionless.

For some unknown reason, Yingcao, who showed a frightened expression, was still not satisfied. While shouting "Help!", she used dandelions to hit the crocodile monster who was unable to move on the ground.

boom!

boom!

boom! !

For some reason, looking at the scene before him, Aragaki Yu felt a strong urge to nurture her.

"Eighty! Eighty! Eighty!..."

This crocodile monster must have suffered countless torments until its entire body was pounded into the ground by Yingcao like a groundhog, only then did Yingcao stop her actions.

Even looking at the deep crater she had created on the ground, Yingcao hurriedly filled the crater with pebbles that had fallen from the wall, and then stomped on it a few more times to make sure the ground was stable before she calmed down.

Really are……

They handle both killing and burying...

Chapter 500 War Puppet

Perhaps because he saw his companions defeated, the leading armored knight seemed a little impatient.

The crimson light in his eyes deepened, and a black vortex appeared in his pupils.

His entire body instantly emitted an eerie aura several times stronger than before, as if a ferocious beast had been born.

At the same time, a dark, ominous light quickly enveloped the knight's lance in his hand.

Seeing this, Koizumi Akako knew she couldn't dawdle any longer.

Who knows how much stronger this thing has become? It would be incredibly embarrassing if I were to crash and burn here.

Then, with the shattering of a gem, a huge magic circle appeared out of thin air beside the armored knight.

"War puppets!"

The next second, a giant mechanical arm suddenly emerged from the magic circle and grabbed at the armored knight.

The armored knight barely dodged the sudden attack of the giant arm by leaping off his warhorse.

Then, to the astonishment of the onlookers, a mechanical giant, resembling a steel behemoth, slowly stepped out from the magic circle. It was about three or four meters tall, its body made of silver metal, radiating a cold luster.

Although its movements are not as fluid and natural as those of humans, they reveal a unique sense of rhythm. Even the simplest stepping motion is powerful and full of strength; from the dull sound of its footsteps landing, one can probably guess how astonishing its weight is.

Although it looked clumsy, its movements were surprisingly swift. Before the armored knight could react, the mechanical giant's hand struck the opponent again.

Seeing this, the armored knight had no choice but to rein in his horse and turn around. The mechanical giant's hand slammed into the ground like a giant cannon, so powerful that the ground nearby trembled.

The armored knight, who had almost fallen off his warhorse, was filled with rage. Before the mechanical giant could retract his hand, he raised his spear, gathered his energy, and thrust it at the giant.

A bit of cold light arrived first, and then the gun shot out like a dragon!

With the knight's roar, a chilling black light condensed on the spear, and the spear tip pierced the mechanical giant's vital point like lightning. The speed and power of the spear truly left Aragaki Yu speechless.

However, the mechanical giant was not afraid at all. Facing the cavalryman's lance, it suddenly stretched out its right palm and, at the critical moment, firmly grabbed the lance in the knight's hand. Then, by sheer brute force, it pulled the knight off his horse and swung the lance around, throwing the knight away. The force of the swing was awe-inspiring.

Fortunately, the knight's mount was also sentient. After seeing its master being thrown away, it risked taking a blow from the mechanical giant and galloped to where the knight had landed, catching its master safely.

Just as the mechanical giant and the knight were locked in battle.

Koizumi Akako's aura had completely changed; a red flame flowed through her entire body, and a powerful aura swept out from her.

As a successor of the Red Magic, Koizumi Akako naturally possesses many hidden tricks up her sleeve.

Under the intense aura, Koizumi Akako's entire body was bathed in a crimson light. Her slender figure, wielding a giant scythe, walked step by step toward the armored knight, as if stepping into the realm of a killing god.

A powerful aura spread out, and the knight who was still locked in a stalemate with the mechanical giant changed his expression drastically. He felt that the strange girl holding the scythe was like a completely different person, and the oppressive feeling emanating from her was even greater than that of the mechanical giant in front of him.

Left with no other choice, the armored knight had to abandon the mechanical giant in front of him and launch a preemptive charge towards Koizumi Akako.

To his surprise, the girl's aura grew stronger with each step she moved forward.

Can't drag it any longer!

His gaze sharpened, and as he approached Koizumi Akako, he raised his gun, gathered his strength, and with a roar, thrust it out!

boom!

A piercing metallic clang rang out.
