Chapter 16

Seiki could hear Suguru’s voice, and he could tell that the man was worried. “Are we sure we want to go against Ichikeya?”

“Pick it first and we’ll see,” said Rieko. Seiki thought he could hear Suguru sit down on the ground. “If it’s the key, then Ichikeya doesn’t own it in the first place. And I really wonder what Takeru is going to say if he learns about this.”

On the pine tree to Seiki’s left, Satoru the ryoushi was still quietly observing the situation. After a few seconds, he stared intently toward one spot on the ground, then another, before meeting Seiki’s eyes again.

Seiki knew what it meant, and his heart filled with hope.

Silently, the ryoushi nocked three arrows, pulled the bowstring and, with one last glance at Seiki, he let loose his Rapid Shots.

Suguru and Chise cried out, and the paralyzing effect of Freeze fell off Seiki like melted ice as the two obake took damage. With the Hikari still in his hand, Seiki pushed himself off the ground and dashed forward toward Suguru, who held the wooden box. His chest was still damp with blood, but the nasty gash was already closing and his health was slowly climbing back up.

The first three arrows had caught the obake unawares. A second bout of Rapid Shots followed, piercing deep into the damp ground, and Rieko shouted, “On the tree!” as she Dispersed to avoid more arrows.

Seiki swept out his sword as he rushed past Kojiro and Chise, cutting the obake girl and throwing her backward. Kojiro lifted the Oni Cleaver to Parry, and Seiki felt the impact vibrating in his hand.

“Now this is more like it,” said Kojiro in relish.

On his right, Seiki could see a flash of purple and silver.

Satoru had clued Seiki in on where his companions were hiding, and Seiki ducked low as Itsuki appeared from the bush and shot out her Poison Dart at Rieko, which connected as the obake came out of Disperse. With a sweep of the ninja’s other hand, a smoke bomb exploded in front of Kojiro as he was about to rush in with his raised Oni Cleaver.

Suguru had been on the ground, working on the lock. An arrow had struck him on the shoulder, and the man was now back on his feet, looking up into the tree as he tried to locate and Life Drain the hidden ryoushi. As Seiki closed in, Suguru gave a start and raised his hand to lay down Nether Chills around him. This was a rather mildly damaging area ability often used for its slowing effect but, considering the level difference between them at this point, it would most likely be enough to immediately kill Seiki.

Seeing the air misted up around the obake, Seiki stopped short just out of its range. From the corner of his eyes, he could see Renshiro burst out of his hiding spot behind a tree, and his Sweeping Blade struck both Kojiro and Chise from behind.

This freed Itsuki up for a second, and her hand shot out with a volley of shurikens that forced Suguru to Disperse.
