The girl with white hair and red eyes is serious about revenge

The blade was only a hair's breadth away from Perlis' skin, but it couldn't hurt her no matter what.

"..."

Perlis didn't say anything. Her bloodshot eyes, which seemed to be covered with mist, just condensed slightly, and Shinjiro Hitaro immediately staggered back a dozen steps.

"What...what's going on, you...you...you...I..."

Hitaro Mama stared blankly at Perlis who was standing in front of him, his words coming out randomly and he looked very dazed.

Then he suddenly burst into a wild laugh and shouted loudly:

"Hahahaha! I get it! [Pure White Fireworks], you want to duel for him! Right! That's perfect! I deliberately didn't use my full strength just now, just to cooperate with your test. Since you want to duel with me so much, then come on!"

"...?"

Perlis was a little confused for a moment. She shook her hands lightly and said indifferently:

"Do you really want to duel with me?"

If the initiator of the duel was Hitaro Mama, then Perlis did not think that killing him would have any negative impact on her - after all, the conditions were proposed by Hitaro Mama.

Moreover, this person is indeed...Perlis silently glanced at the arrogant but ignorant face of Mama Hitaro and said nothing.

“Hahaha, nonsense! As long as I defeat you, I will be superior to the Blade of Babel! Let Shibata be the witness!” Shinma Hitaro pointed at the first mate fiercely, and the latter’s hearty smile froze instantly. “I said, I have studied all your moves a long time ago. I know you better than you know yourself!”

It's quite scary...Perlis sighed silently, then walked forward and lightly took out the butterfly knife.

Just scare him a few times, if blood really splatters on the spot, it might scare the sailors...

Perlis glanced at the frightened sailors behind her, and then looked again at Shinma Hitaro who was holding the sword in one hand in front of her.

"Okay, two young men," Shibata Kazuki's hearty smile faded a little. He looked at the butterfly knife in Perlis's hand, feeling a little uneasy. "Then... let's treat it as a training session, how about that? It's a good opportunity for Miss Perlis to demonstrate to everyone, what..."

"Let her demonstrate? Forget it! I know all her moves!"

Hitaro Mama rudely interrupted Kazuki Shibata, then pointed at Perlis with saliva flying:

"Why are you using a small knife? Do you look down on me? Pull out your sword!"

4) Gaze from the Abyss (Part 5)

Is he okay...Perlis stared at Hitaro Mama in silence, and suddenly felt an incomparable sense of absurdity.

If the black knife was really unsheathed, not to mention the frail Hitaro Shinma, even the "Blue Reef" would probably be damaged.

How did I meet such a person...

Thinking so, Perlis put away the butterfly knife, thought for a moment, and then grabbed the scabbard of the katana with her hand.

She went along with the other party, firstly to try to calm him down, and secondly because she planned to fight directly with the scabbard, which should allow her to better control the strength.

"..."

Seeing that Perlis was already in the mood, Grissom Tren was a little worried, afraid that she was really angry and was going to use all her strength:

"Ms. Pearlis, he might just be, you..."

Perlis tilted her head slightly and nodded towards Grissom, indicating that he would control the strength.

So, Grissom didn't say anything else, but just continued to look at the two of them with a little concern.

At this time, Hitaro Mama had also taken his stance. He leaned down low, holding the sword backwards, looking very strange.

Why is there such a posture...? Perlis was puzzled for a moment, and then realized the reason:

Is he imitating the way I run with the dagger?

I'm sure I won't look so ugly when I do this...Perlis was a little embarrassed, but she just stood there motionless, holding the black hilt of the knife in her hand.

First mate Shibata Kazuki saw that the situation was irreversible, so he took a deep breath and then recited carefully:

"In the name of His Majesty the Blue Emperor, I, the samurai Kazuki Shibata, hereby bear witness..."

"Long-winded!"

Shinma Hitaro roared rudely, then rushed towards Perlis, swinging the katana in his reverse grip violently -

"call--"

Perlis slightly turned her body and immediately dodged the knife attack from Shinjiro Hitaro.

The next moment, time slowed down in Perlis's eyes. She gently waved the scabbard, causing the obsidian scabbard head to hit Shinma Hitaro's hand fiercely.

"what!"

There was a crisp breaking sound from Shinjiro Hitaro's wrist, and he let go of the sword in pain, and it fell to the ground.

Perlis did not pursue the victory, but just stood there calmly and spoke softly:

"you lose."

"I don't!"

Hitaro Mama stood up with a roar, then took out a musket from his waist and aimed it at Perlis's head.

In an instant, both Shibata Kazuki and Gleason reacted. They rushed towards Mama Hitaro and tried to snatch the gun from his hand.

But it was too late, Hitaro Mama's finger was already on the trigger.

"..."

In the slow passage of time, the bloodshot eyes reflected the pistol and the ferocious expression on Hitaro Mama's face.

Perlis suddenly felt that he was very pitiful——

"Bam—"

"clang--"

Fire burst out, but Perlis just waved the scabbard lightly, and the bullet was accurately shot away by her.

But Shinjiro didn't stop, but pulled the trigger again and again:

"Boom--boom--"

"Dangdang——"

Polly deflected the bullet again effortlessly. She remained standing still and spoke softly:

"You lose, put the gun down."

"You can't dodge! You can't dodge!"

Hitaro Mama roared, threw away his pistol, and took out another pistol with blue light from his waist.

This time, Perlis lost her patience——

"Snapped!"

With a snap of his fingers, a blue arc burst out, instantly blowing the barrel of the hand gun apart.

"Ahhhhh!!"

Hitaro Mama's body was entangled in azure arcs of electricity. He fell to his knees on the ground, twitching and covering his neck.

Gleeson and Shibata Kazuki were stunned for a moment. They looked at Shinma Hitaro who was twitching on the ground, and then at Pearlis, seeming a little unbelievable.

Facing their gazes, Perlis simply spoke lightly:

"It exploded."

After saying that, she didn't stay for even a second before heading towards Mei Xinghui on the upper deck.

When passing by Grissom, Perlis patted him on the shoulder gently and whispered in his ear:

"Stay away from him."

"I..."

Grissom turned around and stared at Perlis's back, stunned.

He turned around again and saw that Shibata Kazuki had already carried Hitaro Mama on his shoulders and was preparing to take him to the infirmary on the lower deck.

When his eyes met Grissom's, the first mate smiled helplessly and sighed:

"It seems that our artist has run into a tough opponent."

......

When walking onto the deck, Perlis passed by Mei Xinghui.

At this moment, she heard the civil servant's daughter whisper:

"Thank you for saving Grissom. Your abilities are very interesting."

Perlis regained her composure, turned around, and met Xinghui Mei's violet eyes:

"Do you have any impressions? For example, inspiration from myths and legends?"

"Of course," Mei Xinghui nodded slightly, "The ability you displayed is very similar to the power of 'blessing' in the legend of Mother Goddess Ersa."

Mei Xinghui said this, and then she recited the sentence that she had memorized by heart:

“He saw the red blessing flashing on the sharp sword in the prince’s hand. He laughed and called himself a god, and struck his enemies with the red thunder.” (Note 1)

She paused for a moment, her violet eyes sparkling with light, and then she spoke carefully:

"Although 'Red on the Sword' and 'Red Thunder' are both very common strong factor abilities from today's perspective, these are technologies that have only appeared in modern times. If similar fragments appear in myths and legends, it can only mean one thing."

"That is, the 'destruction factor' that modern people talk about is actually a kind of force, and the series of applications derived from the factor energy technology are just means for modern people, but not the only means."

"From that ancient history to the present, there are beings in the world who can directly manipulate factor energy, such as... you in front of me!"

Mei Xinghui looked at Perlis with shining eyes. The expression on her face remained indifferent, but Perlis inexplicably felt that she would be pounced on and swallowed by this young lady of civil service in the next second.

Being treated as a mysterious species... Perlis inexplicably thought of the Federation defining her as a "Highly Classified" containment object, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart.

When I was young, I was an outlier among the crowd. Now it seems that I am going to become an outlier among humans...

However, Perlis was not surprised by this conclusion. She still remembered her experience on the execution platform of Wanren Mountain, facing the giant axe of the executioner. At that time, she lost her bracelet, but still relied on her instinct to manipulate the potential energy of the factor and dodged the fatal axe.

From then on, she vaguely realized that there was something ancient in her blood. From the mountains of Wanren Mountain to the peak of the Tower of Babel, when Perlis looked back now, this journey seemed like a destined path that had been paved long ago.

"..."

Perlis did not disappoint Mei Xinghui's gaze. She raised one hand slightly, a halo lit up in her blood-red eyes, and she manipulated the factor energy.

"Zizi..."

Jumping red arcs of electricity suddenly appeared at the fingertips of Perlis, swirling and bursting.

"Wow... so amazing..." Mei Xinghui stared at the scene blankly, and even lost the mask of an indifferent lady for a moment, "It's just like... just like that adult..."

Like that adult...? Perlis was stunned for a second, then quickly asked:

"Who is that lord?"

She appeared calm on the surface, but the little lake in her heart was already bubbling with bubbles.

There are still beings active in the Dila Sea that can also manipulate the energy of the factor? In an instant, the white-haired figure looking back in the sea of ​​flowers flashed in Perlis' mind.

Could it be my mother?

"..."

Xinghui Mei blinked lightly, then lowered her head and exhaled:

"I shouldn't have told you, because this is a secret within the palace..."

It's a secret...Perlis suddenly felt like an insurmountable wall was erected in front of her: Mei Xinghui was obviously a staff member of the palace, and it was impossible for her to leak important secrets casually.

It seems unlikely to be asked.

"..."

Just as Perlis was about to give up, suddenly, a great idea popped into her mind.

Although the idea was really weird, since the information was important, Perlis decided to muster up the courage to give it a try.

"cough..."

So, Perlis lowered her voice, stared at Mei Xinghui's eyes seriously, and said seriously:

"I...I'm looking for my own kind."
