Even if his right hand was torn, and he was pushed to the ground, Tsukasa didn’t show a panic expression. Instead, he must admit he was marveled by the power of Desperado. The only thing he was worried about was the damage caused by their fight.
No, it wasn’t because of him. Instead, it was all the damage caused by Nene’s outburst.
Three kilometers around, their surroundings had turned into a ruin.
Whether it was animals, trees, or any others couldn’t be seen as if they were running away from this catastrophe.
However, could they?
When Tsukasa fought Desperado, he realized what kind of shitty character Desperado was.
If he compared it to an RPG game, it was like having reached the top level, wearing the best equipment before rampaging on the newbie town. Her power was simply unstoppable, and unless her opponent was also a Desperado, it was extremely, if not impossible, to defeat her.
As for a reason, it was because Tsukasa felt Desperado was a star.
Desperado could attract anything, the cause, and effect, ignoring fate itself.
In other words, if they wanted to, everything was inevitable.
If he gave an example, if Despedo wished for something, they could achieve it. They just needed to think of them inside their minds, and they could immobilize, wound, or kill Blazers just by having such strong intentions in their minds.
It was so shitty, right?
If Tsukasa’s will wasn’t strong enough, he wouldn’t be able to do anything and just die.
However, at the moment, Nene exceeded that.
If Desperado was someone who stood at the boundary of a human and a demon, then at this moment, she had become a demon.
Still, even so, there was no crisis in his eyes.
Instead, Tsukasa was filled with curiosity. He used his left hand, which was still intact, and caressed her cheek gently.
Nene didn’t fight him and rubbed her face against his hand like a cat.
‘She seems to be moving with instinct.’
Even if Nene wanted to kill him, it was impossible for her to love him, especially when she was crazed about him.
Still, what dumbfounded him was the fact that the resilience of her body was as hard as the Device.
In other words, Nene’s body was fully formed with magic instead of skin, muscles, bones, and the parts of that normal human.
Tsukasa must admit he felt amazed, but this fact wouldn’t change, and he was going to defeat her, so…
“If you can become a demon so you can get me, then I can become a demon too, so I can get you.”
Tsukasa didn’t hesitate and shattered all the black chains around his body.
Everything was so natural, and it was as if his body had been waiting for this moment.
The moment he shattered the black chains around his body, he became a Desperado.
Even Nene, who had become a demon, couldn’t hide her surprise and looked at him in shock. Still, it might be because of her instinct. She quickly put a distance of tens of meters away and looked at him warily.
Tsukasa looked at Nene subtly and chuckled lightly since he realized even if Nene became a demon, her instinct was as sharp as ever.
After he became a Desperado, nothing really changed about him.
However, Tsukasa realized how amazing this state was. After all, he could affect the cause and effect in this world. When Nene was on top of him, he was about to use her finger to defeat her.
Still, Nene ran away.
Tsukasa looked at this torn right arm which was thrown quite far away, but he knew he couldn’t take it.
“Let’s settle everything here.”
While Nene couldn’t talk, she knew what Tsukasa did, but even so, could she care?
Nene just leaped and raised her fist, ready to slam him again.
The fight had started directly, and Nene didn’t give him a chance to get used to the state of being a Desperado.
Tsukasa also didn’t need it since he could get used to becoming a Desperado when they were in battle. He still held his Drying Pole and fought with his left arm.
The clash of a blade and a fist destroyed many things. The might between the two might not be much different from an earthquake.
It might seem weird why Nene’s fist wasn’t hurt even if she touched his blade, but like what Tsukasa had said before, every part of her body had become a Device.
In other words, Nene was the weapon itself.
Still, suddenly Tsukasa thought about the legendary monsters that appeared in the myth and the storybook, then compared them to Nene’s appearance. While it was a shocking fact, he realized this might be the source of those monsters.
Desperado was the boundary between a human and a demon, then what if a Desperado decided to enter the demon side?
The result was right in front of him.
Nene was a demon.
Tsukasa knew he had to stop her, or else she might not be able to return.
‘Still…’
Tsukasa looked at the surrounding terrain and decided to move their fight onto the pacific ocean. He knew this fight might couldn’t be hidden, so all he could do was stop this fight as soon as possible.
When they reached the beach, Tsukasa didn’t hold back anymore. He focussed all of his absorption ability on his blade, increasing its efficiency by a hundredfold, and used his breathing technique to the maximum.
‘Then lastly…’
Tsukasa also used the power of the Desperado, causing reality to be affected by the cause and effect of his blade.
However, Nene was oblivious to all of that and kept charging at him like a wild beast.
‘Come back.”
Tsukasa inserted his will on his blade, gripped the end of the Drying Pole in one hand, and made a powerful downward swing.
His physical ability, which had been enhanced several times by many things, and the grip combined itself with the centrifugal force of his swing, creating an attack that couldn’t be seen.
It was like an afterimage, a haze, and when everything ended, it split everything, whether it was the sea or the sky on a global scale.
Nene’s pupils enlarged before she passed out and fell on his arms. Her features also returned to normal as if nothing had happened to her.
Still…
Tsukasa, who had caught Nene in his arms, looked at the aftermath of his attacks. He looked out with a helpless sigh, wondering whether he could hide all of this.
‘Now that to do…’
The only thing he was glad about was the fact the earth wasn’t split, and he was glad to do it in the sea.
Watching the sea which split in half to a distance, Tsukasa hoped that no ship would be caught in this attack.
‘Well, let’s rest first.’
Tsukasa floated to the beach before falling on the beach with Nene in his arms, and frankly, he was just too tired to do anything. However, he knew he couldn’t do that, so he had to call one person he and Nene could trust. He took his student handbook and called that person.
Instantly, the call was connected.
“Director, can you come here?”
“….” Kurono.
