Chapter 755 - 755
Eiji carefully sensed the differences within himself at this moment.His breakthrough was clearly different from others. Kurogane Ikki had pushed open the stone gate with his formidable will, while he had shattered the stone gate with a blade that could cut through everything.
Although both had entered beyond the stone gate, the difference in their methods might lead to unexpected developments.
That being said, he didn't actually know what this realm was supposed to be like in the first place.
"Twin-Wings, you should know what this realm is, right?"
Happily, there was a senior who had long since stepped into this realm right beside him, so Eiji tentatively asked her.
"Just call me Edelweiss."
The silver-haired Valkyrie nodded, the killing intent in her expression having completely vanished.
"That is the realm known as the Demon. I'll explain it to you in detail..."
Her attitude was very friendly.
She told Eiji everything she knew about the characteristics of a Demon, holding nothing back.
Transcending fate, remaining untouched by causality, autonomous mana enhancement, and most importantly, the power to influence causality.
"Isn't that invincible?"
Eiji was startled by what he heard.
He truly hadn't expected a powerhouse at the Demon realm to be so terrifying!
"It's not that invincible."
Edelweiss stroked her chin, pondering as she explained.
"Although Demons can influence causality, generally they can only exert influence. Actually converging causality into reality is exceptionally difficult, and it also depends on the opponent's strength level, will to resist, and so on..."
The essence of a Demon is to influence causality.
But even among Demons, the strength of this influence varies.
Some Demons have strong enough influence to forcibly converge causality, fixing it into reality.
Once causality is fixed, the outcome becomes unchangeable. Even other Demons would find it difficult to oppose this.
But many Demons don't have influence strong enough to achieve this.
When unable to fix causality and only able to influence it, if the opponent resists strongly, it's not impossible to resist this power.
"So overall, most Demons can only use this move to bully weaker opponents, right?"
Eiji expressed his understanding.
Against opponents who aren't Demons, this ability is extremely dangerous.
If the opponent is also a Demon, the effectiveness of this influence is greatly reduced.
Only those who can fix causality are the most fearsome.
"Correct. Generally speaking, the greater the difficulty in opening the stone gate, the more solid the shackles broken, the stronger the Demon's influence over causality becomes after breakthrough. A Demon like Kurogane Ikki has terrifyingly strong influence."
The greater the difficulty, the more effort expended, and the greater the rewards received.
In a way, this could be seen as fate's compensation for Kurogane Ikki, a Blazer whom fate never favored and causality never loved.
Before, he was least expected to succeed. Who would have thought that upon growing up, he would achieve so much? It's like parents feeling they previously mistreated him, so they give him more benefits now.
That's the kind of feeling it gives.
Of course, this is just joking talk.
At this point, Edelweiss paused, then tilted her head slightly as she looked at Eiji.
"What's wrong?"
Eiji gave her a strange look.
A trace of confusion appeared on her face—for her, this expression was truly quite rare.
"Nothing, I was just wondering... for a Blazer like you who shattered the stone gate to break through to Demon King, whether your traction force is strong or weak..."
Edelweiss said this while examining Eiji with keen interest.
"You don't know?"
"I don't know."
Under Eiji's surprised inquiry, Edelweiss honestly shook her head.
"I've never seen a Blazer like you before! Someone shattering the stone gate to break through to Demon King - this is the first time I've heard of it!"
All Blazers push open the stone gate to break through to Demon King, with the only difference being the level of difficulty.
Why is it only you who chopped the stone gate to pieces and stepped into Demon King?
We all come from the same world, so how come you're so exceptional?
Edelweiss was very interested in Eiji.
An unknown phenomenon had occurred with Eiji - something even she didn't understand.
"Even if you say that, I don't really get it either..."
Eiji scratched his head, his expression confused.
This was his first time breaking through to Demon King too, and he only knew the what but not the why of many things.
"In that case... are you interested?"
Seeing this, Edelweiss' face showed a faint, elusive smile.
She raised her dazzling twin swords again, her eyes covered with fervent determination.
This was different from the deliberately fabricated killing intent from before - this was pure battle spirit, born from interest in a swordsman of equal caliber, wanting to spar with him.
He had learned her swordsmanship even before breaking through to Demon King.
She really wanted to know just how powerful he had become after breaking through to Demon King!
Throughout the entire world, only this young man was qualified to make her show such eyes.
"Interesting!"
Opposite her, identical battle spirit appeared in Eiji's eyes.
Their gazes collided, the surrounding air currents screaming sharply as their auras clashed, easily tearing the ground apart.
Immediately after, twin blades and twin swords moved simultaneously, transforming into countless flashes of light that interwove!
...
"That is...!"
"Demon King realm!"
Saikyo Nene and Nangou Torajirou trembled with shock from head to toe.
What had happened?
How had the little brat, the junior apprentice brother, suddenly broken through to Demon King realm overnight?
Wasn't it said that the difficulty for him to break through to Demon King was more than twice that of normal Blazers?
Was a doubled difficulty that easy to overcome?
What exactly had they missed during this one night?
"I told you before."
Edelweiss rubbed her temples.
"Kurogane Ikki might not be able to defeat him!"
Though her spirits weren't great, her face showed a full smile.
This excited feeling was as if she herself had achieved a breakthrough.
"What are you so proud about?"
Saikyo Nene coldly retorted.
"So, the little brat was trained by you?"
Nangou Torajirou let out a long sigh, having guessed something.
"Is that true?"
Saikyo Nene exclaimed in surprise.
"That's right. Last night while Nangou-sensei was training Kurogane Ikki, I went to train Eiji."
Edelweiss said with a light laugh.
So that's how it was.
Nangou Torajirou nodded secretly.
He had found it strange before - how many people in this world could make Xiao Ai show that exhausted look? If it was the little brat who had broken through to Demon King, then it was indeed not impossible.
"But isn't it still too early to say the little brat can defeat the Kurogane boy?"
Even after learning about Eiji's breakthrough, Nangou Torajirou didn't get too excited too soon.
Kurogane Ikki's pulling power was immensely formidable, even capable of anchoring the causality of victory—a rarity even among Demon Persons.
Could the young brat really win?
"Just keep watching."
Upon hearing this, Edelweiss showed not a hint of panic.
"His swordsmanship right now is truly terrifying!"
As she spoke, her expression was exceedingly grave.
So grave, in fact, that it made Nangou Torajirou feel she harbored a trace of unwillingness.
