This time, tree demons appeared in the very first round . The monsters' difficulty level was evidently harder than in yesterday's training session .

However, since s.h.i.+ka, Natsuya, and Hitaka had joined in for today's training session, the fighting was actually easier than the last time .

Three Sakura female demons and one Mist Demon appeared together during the first boss fight round!

Seiji supported Kaho with his Mana, having her release an insect swarm to fight against the buffed regular Sakura samurai army and the tree demons . Natsuya dealt with the Mist Demon, s.h.i.+ka and Hos.h.i.+ teamed up against a Sakura female demon, Hitaka and Hisas.h.i.+ teamed up against the second female demon, and Mika and Yukari teamed up against the third demon, while Mayuzumi and her summoned spirit Idelia provided cover for everyone… All the team members performed excellently and dealt with the monsters without much trouble .

In the second monster wave, more tree demons appeared, and there were more female demons and Mist Demons in the boss fight round .

Seiji's group dealt with the second boss fight using the exact same tactics, except with Seiji and Natsuya teaming up against the Mist Demons .

Seiji wasn't surprised when Sakura female demons appeared together with the regular monsters in the third wave of attacks .

During the boss fight, some new demons appeared for the first time . Sakura Snake Demons and Samurai Demons!

As the name suggested, a Snake Demon was a gigantic snake-like spiritual monster with a body length of over fifty meters! Its black scales shone with a metallic sheen, and it had blood-red eyes that kept emitting a red mist which curled around it . This made it seem as if its body was on fire .

The Snake Demon moved by flying . Its gigantic body seemed to glide in midair, which was a stunning visual impact that caused almost everyone to pause in surprise .

The Samurai Demon was a much stronger and leveled up version of the regular Sakura samurai . This demon's body was seventeen meters tall, and it wore black armor that shone with an identical metallic sheen, just like the Snake Demon's scales . It also had blood-red eyes that constantly emitted a red mist that surrounded its body .

Although the Samurai Demon was only one-third the size of the Snake Demon, it still gave off a powerful pressuring aura as it walked over with a sword in each hand! It made everyone feel as if they were facing off against a giant mecha .

Seiji had yet to fight against a mecha in real life . But as he looked over the giant Samurai Demon, he felt that it would feel similar to this .

The Snake Demon and Samurai Demon were both cla.s.sified as vicious demon danger level!

Not only Seiji's knight order members, but even Natsuya and s.h.i.+ka felt pressure and danger from these two boss monsters .

Seiji remained calm as something flashed in his eyes .

Kaho continued using her insect swarm to deal with the regular Sakura samurais and the tree demons . The insect swarm even managed to somewhat occupy the Sakura female demons .

The Snake Demon flew towards everyone, while the Samurai Demon approached from the ground . A group of Mist Demons followed behind them… the insect swarm was basically ineffective against these stronger enemies .

Everyone saw the Snake Demon open its mouth wide and swiftly gather red mist at its mouth . The red mist formed into a gigantic spiritual bullet that it then shot out!

If this huge spiritual bullet hit anyone, it would surely cause serious injury or even death!

Reversal spell, [Dragon Counterattack]!

Seiji stood in front of everyone else and lifted his sword as he cast one of his ultimate defense spells . A large amount of small spell formations instantly appeared before him, absorbing the monster's attack and transforming it into a divine dragon form that went straight back towards the Snake Demon!

The golden dragon roared as it rushed towards the Snake Demon . However, the dragon exploded as it was sliced into two by a bright red arc right as it was about to hit the Snake Demon!

The Samurai Demon had saved the Snake Demon .

With a single swipe of the sword in its right hand, it had sent out a bright red wave of sword energy that crushed the [Dragon Counterattack] spell!

The Samurai Demon then got on one knee . It was evident that it was gathering energy for some sort of attack .

"Retreat! Scatter!!" Seiji immediately shouted towards everyone .

Spring! The Samurai Demon jumped high up into the air .

Now, what did it feel like to see a seventeen-meter-tall giant jumping right towards you?

It was difficult for Seiji to describe . The best a.n.a.logy he could come up with was seeing a meteor hurl straight at you…

*BOOM!!!* The moment that the Samurai Demon landed, it swung down with both swords, sending out a huge areof-effect shock wave!

Since everyone had retreated in time, n.o.body was struck by the swords . However, everyone was. .h.i.t by the shock wave .

Fortunately, Natsuya had already cast a defensive barrier on everyone . In addition, everyone also had their own defensive abilities, so n.o.body was injured .

Double [Overload] followed by [White Calamity]! Seiji decisively used his limited-usage ultimate abilities .

A pure white spirit was instantly created .

Natsuya and the others were shocked to see this .

"s.h.i.+kchan!"

Hearing her adopted older brother call to her, s.h.i.+ka instantly understood what he wanted . She rushed up to the White Calamity spirit .

The spirit entered her body, instantly causing her to glow with a faint white light . It felt like she was now releasing a powerful mystical aura .

The [White Calamity] spirit that Seiji created was capable of attaching itself to any spiritual ability user . This was the first time Seiji and s.h.i.+ka were testing its abilities in actual combat, however .

"You take care of the Snake Demon!" Seiji told her .

Rather than the Samurai Demon, the Snake Demon was the greater threat as it could move freely in the air . Only someone strong enough could fight against it .

s.h.i.+ka immediately charged forward, jumping right at the Samurai Demon .

The Samurai Demon swung its sword in an attempt to cleave her . However, it suddenly stopped in its movements .

Destruction curse, "Icefall"!

A powerful chill started emanating from s.h.i.+ka's Demon Blade Muramasa . A giant sword of ice sliced down together with her blade, landing a direct hit on the Samurai Demon's head!

*Bam!!!* This one hit smashed the Samurai Demon's head into pieces, causing its armor to crack and emit a large amount of red mist .

s.h.i.+ka then stepped on the now headless Samurai Demon's shoulder and used it as a platform to jump high up into the air, aiming right for the Snake Demon in the sky!

The Snake Demon swung its tremendous tail with high speed right at s.h.i.+ka . But, somehow, the tail missed, and s.h.i.+ka counterattacked with a vicious stab into the tail that also allowed her to climb onto the demon's body .

Clang! Clang! Clang! …s.h.i.+ka continuously swung her blade, dealing heavy damage with each swing . This caused mist to constantly escape from the Snake Demon's body .

"Gyahhhh!!!" The Snake Demon made pitiful sounds as it started twisting abnormally in the air .

While s.h.i.+ka was busy slaying the Snake Demon, the fight on the ground was still continuing .

Containment spell, "Demon-sealing circle"!

Natsuya cast a spell that created a giant dark red ring with a faint pentagram and s.h.i.+ning runes within .

The next moment, she pointed at the Samurai Demon, causing the ring to fly over and encircle it while glowing with a brilliant light!

Mist kept escaping from the headless Samurai Demon's body which was shaking all over as if it was about to collapse .

Yet, the next instant, it swung both its swords, twirling around where it stood and letting off a powerful shock wave!

*Shatter!* The dark red ring broke and disappeared with a sound like shattering gla.s.s .

Seiji and Natsuya combined their barriers to block the shock wave .

Everyone else had already retreated further back, so they weren't affected .

A large amount of mist swiftly started gathering at the Samurai Demon's missing head . However, Seiji wouldn't allow it to regrow a head freely . He immediately cast a spell . . .

[Evolved Demon Suppression Bell]!

*Clang!!* A gigantic golden bell appeared, and covered the Samurai Demon… no, more accurately, it was only large enough to cover the upper half of the Samurai Demon's body!

This scene seemed almost comical .

While the Samurai Demon stopped moving for a moment, it then sent out another explosive shock wave that shattered the golden bell!

The Samurai Demon then kneeled once again .

Seeing that it was preparing another attack, Natsuya and Seiji tacitly took identical actions .

Spirit sword, "Red Lotus"! Natsuya's sword started glowing a dark red .

Spirit sword, "White Lotus"! Seiji's sword started glowing a pure white .

They aimed together at the Samurai Demon's legs, and sliced out!

The moment that the Samurai Demon jumped, Seiji and Natsuya charged simultaneously while attacking the demon's left and right leg in unison!

Their tacit cooperation could be termed perfect .

The Samurai Demon was knocked off balance in midair and crashed wretchedly into the ground .

Seiji and Natsuya looked at each other and exchanged smiles before pressing on with their attack .

They continued cooperating excellently without need for verbal communication against the Samurai Demon . As they chased after it, they even took the time to kill the nearby Mist Demons .

Everybody else wasn't merely standing around as Seiji and Natsuya hunted the Samurai Demon .

Kaho did her best to control her insect swarm on her own to fight against the Sakura samurai and tree demons . Hitaka agilely danced between several Mist Demons and kept them busy . Mika and Yukari worked together to kill the Sakura female demons as quickly as possible . Hos.h.i.+ and Hisas.h.i.+ took risks while stalling several other female demons . Mayuzumi had Idelia support Hos.h.i.+ and Hisas.h.i.+ .

Kazuko adjusted her eyegla.s.ses while floating in midair and observing all of this .

Behind her, the Snake Demon screamed pitifully and writhed in midair as s.h.i.+ka sliced it many times in succession .

. . . . This time, tree demons appeared in the very first round . The monsters difficulty level was evidently harder than in yesterdays training session . However, since s.h.i.+ka, Natsuya, and Hitaka had joined in for todays training session, the fighting was actually easier than the last time .
