The Oni race is naturally comprised of beings with tenacious vitality.
Bai Luo hadn't realized that even after losing her reason, Torachiyo still knew how to play dead.
Having tricked people his whole life, Bai Luo finally got a taste of his own medicine.
Fortunately, he quickly realized the danger because the System hadn't notified him of the trial's completion, and he used his dual swords to block her just in time.
What kind of beast is the most terrifying?
An injured beast.
When they know there is no way out, they become even more frenzied than usual.
That was Torachiyo's current state.
Already corroded by darkness and now surely wounded—one could say her buffs were fully stacked.
After she seized the opportunity, Bai Luo was flipped directly onto the ground.
Torachiyo didn't let up; bringing a gust of fragrant wind with her, she pressed down on Bai Luo before he could get up.
She opened her mouth to bite at his neck.
The duration of Four-Sided Slash had ended, meaning Bai Luo had no chance to teleport to a sword shadow to escape her suppression.
He could only barely raise the Elucidator to block her mouth.
Teeth clashed with the Elucidator, sending out dazzling sparks.
"Mrs. Chiyo, calm down! You're a married woman! Your son Doukei is watching from outside!"
Although Torachiyo had become incredibly mad due to the dark corruption, her looks were still intact.
But Bai Luo didn't have any other thoughts because of that.
Not because she was Mikoshi Doukei's mother, but simply because she was hell-bent on killing him, so he didn't dare entertain other thoughts.
"Dou... Doukei..."
[A/N: Mikoshi Doukei was the original name of the founder of IwakuraArt. It was only after creating the Tengu Sho technique that, the Tengu Maiden bestowed the title "Douin" to him. From that moment onwards, he was known as Mikoshi Douin]
Mikoshi Doukei's name seemed to restore a shred of Torachiyo's reason.
But only for an instant; she soon descended into madness again.
And she seemed even more ferocious than before.
Actually, Bai Luo could use other methods to escape, such as his Fire of the Earth Core.
Unfortunately, during the trial, active effects from equipment were banned. Fire of the Earth Core was included in that.
"Right, that thing!"
Bai Luo remembered the Skill Card he drew in the second round.
He tried to access it and found that the Skill Card wasn't classified as equipment, but as a consumable.
Meaning, he could use it!
"Use Skill Card!"
Unable to free his hands, Bai Luo used his mouth.
He bit down, and a card appeared in his mouth.
At his will, the card turned into a golden light and vanished into the void.
"Heheh..."
A maiden's light laughter drifted faintly past Bai Luo's ears.
In an instant, a pitch-black tear was ripped open in space.
Inside the darkness, many eyes peered at everything around them. The blood-red eyes shifted constantly, seemingly curious about everything in this space.
*Ding ding ding...*
An urgent warning sound rang out, making Torachiyo subconsciously raise her head.
*Clack, clack...*
In her blood-red eyes, a never-before-seen steel behemoth was gradually enlarging, roaring as it rushed toward her at high speed.
Wooo—
Although the steel behemoth didn't seem very fast—at least much slower than Torachiyo—when it hit her, it sent her flying.
The speeding train traveled recklessly through this strange world until it carved a thousand-meter-long trench in the forest, finally disappearing at the end of the trial space.
Bai Luo, covering the abdomen that Torachiyo had pressed down on, slowly stood up.
Although the train hadn't hit him, it had undeniably rushed right over him.
It was his first time experiencing what it felt like to lie on the tracks. It was f**king thrilling.
Seeing the smoke swirling before him, he recalled the laughter he heard earlier.
The bell-like laughter inspired infinite imagination, but it only made Bai Luo curl his lips.
"An old hag of unknown age daring to act all cutesy here, truly..."
Swish.
A rift appeared behind Bai Luo. A small hand, resembling a child's, reached out holding a folding fan and smacked Bai Luo hard on the forehead.
It made Bai Luo stumble.
With that, Bai Luo shut his mouth completely.
You said it was just a Trial Card?! Why can she still attack me?!
Complaining internally, Bai Luo's hands didn't stop.
Holding his dual swords, he carefully watched the end of the trench carved by the train.
Smoke swirled there, obscuring any figures.
Having suffered once already, how could Bai Luo not be careful?
But the System's subsequent notification made him breathe a sigh of relief.
[Congratulations, you have completed the final stage of the trial.]
[Drawing Class...]
[Congratulations, you have drawn the Special Class Change Tome - The Guilty King.]
"The Guilty King?"
Looking at the lavender book covered in crystals manifesting in his hand, Bai Luo's face was full of question marks.
Is it Gilgamesh? Or Ainz Ooal Gown?
Or perhaps...
Hiss—
Guilty? King?
Guilty Crown?!
Shu Ouma?
Looking at the trial space that hadn't vanished yet, Bai Luo decided to test this new class first.
After opening the book, countless threads flew out and wrapped around Bai Luo's right hand.
Something resembling crystals covered his right hand at a visible speed.
[4th Class: The Guilty King successfully activated]
[Obtained Passive: Savior]
[Obtained Skill: Void Extraction]
[Obtained Elemental Burst: Power of the King]
Passive Skill: [Savior]
Continuous channeling casts a spell that provides damage absorption and healing effects to all nearby units (including enemies). Enters a crystallized state upon ending.
Skill: [Void Extraction]
ActiveEffect: Rush to a hero and extract the Void from their heart, gaining a new skill effect.
PassiveEffect: The Guilty King can pre-store a special Void - Singer'sSword. Afterward, this Void can be arbitrarily housed in the heart of any unit.
Elemental Burst: [Power of the King]
ActiveEffect: When The Guilty King is on the field, the Voids of other units will be revealed. All units' Voids are differentiated by their Vision's element. No second type of Void will appear within a single element, with very few exceptions.
Note: If the target possesses no Vision, a random Void will be generated.
As expected, the effects differed from the original work and even changed slightly from the game skills.
For example, the Voids.
Reasonably speaking, everyone's Void should be different, but the System defined it so that Voids are differentiated by the attribute of the Vision.
For instance, Pyro would only generate a certain type of Void, while Anemo would generate another.
A Pyro attribute would absolutely not produce an Anemo Void.
Speaking of which... according to the skill description, Bai Luo currently possessed a Void.
And this Void seemed to be in...
A certain light began to flicker on Bai Luo's chest.
He raised his right hand and touched the light.
Crystals sparkled, and a greatsword the height of a person was pulled from his chest.
Bai Luo: "..."
Suddenly, I have the courage to go toe-to-toe with the Raiden Shogun.
