Holy Akashic Conqueror 65 In the past White, present is Red

Those five middle-aged men were more troublesome, cause all of them had very good coordination and were good at group attack. Another point was that they weren't attacking him and were just observers. He knew they were searching for a weak spot in his combat style and for an appropriate opportunity for an ambush attack. Still, Lucien let them be as he was now focused on killing agents of Vasuki cause they were much weaker than members of Washuu Clan apparently.

Lucien rushed at their formation again and with the jump he slashed one of the agents, sending him flying away with his tail. Death. One down, only two more to go.

As soon as he landed, he slashed with his katana, severing hand of the agent to his right, turning to the agent to his left, who was slashing at him with katana. Lucien swiftly dodged the attack and he pierced the agents through his heart, instantly killing him on the spot.

Then he slashed at the agent whose arm was severed, separating his body into two parts. Now only he and those five middle-aged men from the Washuu Clan remained alive. they both looked and observed each other for several seconds until Lucien exited his Kakuja state and congealed five kagune katanas and controlled each with telekinesis.

At the same time, all those five katanas each shot with lightning speed at their targets. Lucien didn't want to fight them all at once, cause their coordination was looking too troublesome to deal with. So he just used his telekinesis. In just a second, all five katanas clashed with swords of their targets and sparks were flying in the air and sound of clashing weapons was heard through entire valley.

Compared to the past, controlling larger numbers of weapons through telekinesis was much easier, cause he was more proficient in it. But there wasn't control as a control. One type was a direct one, where he would be controlling weapons through telekinesis personally. Another type was when he would leave a small imprint of his psionic energy on the target and weapons would automatically attack the target. With direct control, he could control up to fifteen weapons with his current psionic powers.

After several minutes of the intense fight, Lucien was gaining an advantage over those five middle-aged men from the Washuu Clan. As he was making the attacks stronger and faster, they were having problems with keeping on with them. When the fight was in the full flow, he congealed one kagune dagger, which was hidden, close to the place where they were fighting.

Suddenly when one of those five men showed weak spot as he just barely defended against attack from Lucien's katana, from nowhere kagune dagger shot with terrifying speed and slashed his neck, instantly killing the man. Lucien was smiling widely under the mask and remaining four men, were rather indifferent to the death of their comrade.

'Truly professionals. Even the death of their comrade can't distract them. Even I must admire their rationality over the situation and keeping a calm mind. Some other idiot would start raging around and losing even that bit of rationality that they kept till now.'

Thought Lucien in his mind as he was controlling entire battle to his satisfaction. And soon another man was killed in flash, the reason was same as the first one. After the second one was killed the men were still able to keep their composure. Seeing this Lucien chuckled and intensified the fight by more levels. Katanas were attacking more fiercely and faster. Each of them was aiming at a vital spot of the enemy.

Soon enough one of three remaining men couldn't defend and he was pierced through. When only two of them were remaining they calmness was finally broken and they were panicking. They both looked at each other, before nodding their heads and one of them rushed at Lucien while the last one chose to escape. Probably he wanted to deliver the message about this attack and another one was just stalling for a time.

All in vain. One katana killed the escaping man as soon as he turned his back to Lucien and focused on escaping, apparently he forgot that he could be still attacked. What an idiot. And that unlucky one that was rushing at Lucien was pierced with several katanas at ones, but none of his vital points were struck. Thus he died slowly.

Lucien was thinking about keeping one of them alive, but it was rather useless as he already knew there was an ancestral site of the Shi Xue Clan located from books in his library. Then he watched an entire valley as it was painted with the color of red.

Before the start of this "battle" entire valley was pure white in color, just like the snow which was everywhere. But now after massacre happeníing here, it was turned to the blood red color. It was looking ominous and radiating aura of blood and death.

"What a mess. I should look for something useful at least."

Said, Lucien, as he stored all bodies in his Cross Crest, more precisely in the special room that was used for refining bodies in Charles Patricius: Our Transient Glory. After looking for some useful things that may be here, left by the Washuu Clan, Lucien found only some useless things like tents or some things here. Even some firearms and ammunition were here, but he didn't take it at first as it was useless to him but cause he was greedy bastard, inherited after his grandpa, he took it and stored it in Charles Patricius: Our Transient Glory in the storage room.

Then he looked at this valley that was painted to the new beauty and returned to the Charles Patricius: Our Transient Glory for rest as he was tired from the fight and also from the usage of telekinesis. He wasn't tired much but still, rest was very appealing to him. He knew that he was in the right path and it didn't matter even if the Washuu Clan obtains that inheritance as this was the only path leading in and out. He could intercept them anywhere he wanted, but still he wanted to look at the ruins and search the ruins itself for some hidden resources.
