Chapter 815: The world after death

Translator: imperfectluck Editor: Kurisu

The moment that the [Evolved Telekinesis Clone] sliced through the warrior, the clone also collapsed and disappeared.

That clone had been created from the Evil Goddess’s power, which Seiji forcefully transformed into his own clone. Basically, he had haphazardly used stolen power to create that clone, which was obviously rather reckless. Just the very fact that it succeeded without self-destructing instantly was great already.

It was thanks to this clone that Seiji had been able to break through the warrior’s defenses. However, the fight wasn’t over yet.

The warrior’s body collapsed and vanished, but demonic mist instantly gathered and formed a human form with a new body!

“Demon Suppression Bell!”

Seiji cast his golden bell spell in time to suppress the black flame sword, which was floating in midair. This managed to obstruct the demonic mist’s actions.

This sword was the true body.

Seiji could already tell this during the fight. He had also received a hint regarding this from the White Sakura Goddess. Defeating the warrior wouldn’t mean the end. He had to completely suppress this black flame sword!

The demonic mist reacted furiously, trying to break free from the suppression. However, Seiji cast more spells to suppress the sword while having his companions come over to help.

Natsuya and the others teamed up to attack all the mist that poured out, not giving it any chance to form another warrior!

The demonic mist became even more agitated as it even seemed to screech furiously like a monster would. This loud sound rattled everyone’s eardrums.

Everyone could faintly sense that a tremendous and fearsome existence was angrily watching all of them, giving everyone bone-piercing chills.

If it wasn’t for Seiji’s presence, this invisible pressure would likely cause all of them to tremble in fear already.

This was unmistakably the Evil White Sakura Goddess’s pressure.

She was incredibly powerful. However, Seiji and his friends also had the assistance of a goddess.

With the White Sakura Goddess’s assistance, Seiji slowly managed to seal the Evil Goddess’s sword!

Although the White Sakura Goddess was much weaker than the Evil Goddess, this was still the White Sakura Goddess’s home territory. Suppressing a sword was still doable for her.

The problem was with Chiaki, the catalyst for her divine power.

Chiaki was unable to handle the goddess’s power for too long. Seiji needed to increase the speed of sealing the sword.

Yet if he increased the speed, there was the risk that a mistake would be made, allowing the Evil Goddess’s sword to break free.

This was a difficult choice to make. However, Seiji decided to take this risk as he would load if things went wrong.

“I’m going to increase my power now to seal this sword as quickly as possible. However, this process might be dangerous. All of you, be careful!” Seiji created a save file at this moment in time as he warned everyone.

“Understood!” Everyone agreed.

After making sure that all his companions were on guard, Seiji took a deep breath before swiftly creating many hand seals. A powerful golden light instantly released…

“Demon Suppression Formation!”

A large pentagram spell formation expanded with a pillar of light rising up from each of the five corners. The beams of light connected at the top and released countless mystical runes.

“Suppress the demons of the world…

“Stop the evils of the world…

“Destroy the evil spirits of the world…

“In the name of the gods, my will shall seal you…”

Seiji solemnly incanted as he cast his spell. He swiftly powered this spell up to its maximum.

“Absolute Suppression! Seal of Light!! Demon Sword of the Evil Goddess, be sealed away!!!”

Together with a loud rumble, a giant golden-white seal appeared while enveloping most of the demonic mist within its brilliant divine glow. Countless white cherry blossom petals could be seen flying underneath this seal.

“Ahhhhhhhh!!!” A sound that resembled both a roar and a scream as if a tremendous beast struggling could be heard from within the seal.

Seiji could only hope that Shigure Tendo’s consciousness would be alright.

It was difficult to hold back against the Evil Goddess’s power, so Seiji could only pray for him.

Suddenly, a streak of black light broke through the seal of light and speedily shot towards a certain person!

There wasn’t even enough time to shout “watch out”. Seiji tracked the black light and saw that it was aiming for…

Mayuzumi!

Natsuya and the others had all been on guard. They instantly activated defensive spells to block the black light. However, the black light penetrated through everything!

Mayuzumi’s summoned spirit Idelia placed herself in front of Mayuzumi, yet she was shot through as well. The black light was just about to hit Mayuzumi’s body when she suddenly vanished at the very last moment, causing the black light to miss.

Yukari had saved her.

With astonishing speed, Yukari had shot out spiderweb strands to pull Mayuzumi away, narrowly dodging this attack.

However, this still wasn’t over. After continuing for another ten or so meters, the black light stopped in midair and then suddenly turned around, still shooting at high speed!

*Bang!*

Hoshi shot out an arrow of light that accurately hit the black light.

Mai, Hitaka, and Rana almost simultaneously shot out Mana Bullets. Natsuya cast spiritual blades, Hisashi released lightning, Shika cast ice blades, Mika cast dark blades, Kaede cast wind blades, Kaho summoned insects, and Kazuko summoned demons… Everyone attacked the black light together! They managed to forcefully stop the black light in its tracks.

The onslaught continued for quite a while.

Everyone surrounded the black light and continuously attacked it until it was completely destroyed.

Seiji heaved a sigh of relief at seeing this.

Danger had indeed occurred. However, it was excellent that his companions had managed to prevent anything bad from occurring while he was occupied with the sealing spell.

Seiji continued focusing on sealing the demonic sword.

Finally, all the demonic mist dissipated, and the sealing was completed successfully.

After Seiji stopped casting his spell, everyone saw a longsword remaining on the ground.

Seiji felt that this sword looked rather familiar. Although he wasn’t one hundred percent certain, he felt that this was the sword that Shigure Tendo had used back at the Bloodwine Ritual tournament.

The next moment, the longsword became hazy as it turned gray and then gradually took a human form.

Seiji walked over.

“Shigure Tendo, wake up!”

There was no reaction.

Seiji called out again.

Still no reaction.

Seiji looked at the gray human figure on the ground for several seconds. He walked over even closer and crouched down next to the figure. Seiji then pointed and created a tiny White Lotus spirit sword which he then used to poke the figure’s head.

Poke~ Poke~ Poke~

Everyone else was rendered speechless.

After countless pokes, the gray figure finally moved as its figure gradually became clearer.

However, the figure was still too hazy to clearly make out a face. Everyone could only tell that he was a boy wearing samurai attire.

He slowly sat up and looked all around him.

“…Who are you?” His voice sounded somewhat ethereal.

“Before asking who I am, you should first introduce yourself. We all saved you,” Seiji told him.

The figure fell silent for a moment.

“I am Shigure Tendo.”

As expected.

“We meet again… Although I don’t know if this counts as ‘meeting’, Tendo-san.” Seiji paused for a moment before choosing to say his real name. “I am Seiji Haruta.”

Although he could choose to conceal his identity, Seiji felt that it would be easier to communicate with Shigure by using his real name here.

“Seiji Haruta… -san.” Shigure looked at Seiji. “Where is this place?”

“The world after death.” Seiji suddenly wanted to make a joke.

Shigure fell silent for a moment.

“I understand. I’ve already died,” he stated lightly. There was no sign of joking or resistance in his tone. It sounded like he completely accepted that he had “died”.

“Hey, don’t accept this so easily!” Seiji couldn’t help but make such a comment.

“Haruta-san, are you also dead?”

“I’m not dead at all! You’re not dead, either. I was just joking with you.”

Shigure: “…”

Seeing how silent Shigure was again, Seiji suddenly felt a sense of guilt. He felt like he had just fooled someone who was too honest.

It was just clearly supposed to be a joke! Seiji supposed that Shigure was the type who would miss even such obvious jokes.

“This joke isn’t funny.” Shigure was all serious.

“Sorry… I just wanted to liven up the atmosphere.” Seiji felt pressured by how serious Shigure was, so he apologized. “This is the dream world. We just had a fight. I want to ask you why you appeared here, what happened to you, and what exactly is going on… Could you please tell me?”
