Shiki stood on the tomoe pattern formed by electro element, her sleeves and skirt fluttering wildly in the strong wind. Bells rang out rapidly, creating an unsettling sound.
Her rainbow-blue Mystic Eyes of Death Perception lit up, and then Shiki saw a bird, a giant bird with a wingspan of hundreds of meters, traversing through the thunderstorm.
The Mystic Eyes of Death Perception could see things that ordinary people could not. Undoubtedly, the Thunderbird was already dead. This giant bird now was merely the electro archon's residue left behind after the Thunderbird's death.
Just like the Tatarigami of Yashiori Island, but unlike Orobas, who remembered nothing, the Thunderbird's resentment retained a considerable degree of consciousness.
It knew who had slain it, so upon sensing this similar aura, it immediately became enraged.
"Screech!"
A bright cry came from the thunderstorm, and at the same time, the thunderstorm hovering over Seirai Island became even more active.
Shiki activated her Archon authority, intending to forcibly dispel the thunderstorm, but the Thunderbird's resentment was exceptionally strong, and for a moment, it contended equally with Shiki.
"Indeed, I knew it wouldn't be that simple."
In the game, the Traveler gradually restored the great barrier, re-sealing the Thunderbird's residue, leaving only the Thunder Manifestation, a useless thing, on the platform.
But now, Shiki had not restored the great barrier, because she didn't want Seirai Island to be perpetually shrouded in thunderstorms.
She wanted to completely eradicate this thousand-year-old residue from its root.
The hilt of the Kuji Narukami appeared from Akasha. Shiki grasped the hilt, slowly "drawing" it out.
"A thousand years of resentment, how shall it be repaid!"
The massive Thunderbird burst through the dark clouds, but what surprised Shiki was that it could actually speak?
But it seemed that was the only sentence it could utter. Shiki saw no clarity in the Thunderbird's eyes, only turbidity and resentment.
"Very well, a thousand years ago you perished by Raiden Ei's hand, so a thousand years later, let this move be the finale."
Shiki placed the Kuji Narukami beside her face, simultaneously closing her eyes and recalling the scene she had witnessed from the ley line.
Musou no Hitotachi, what it pursued was a state of mind. As the saying goes, the blade cuts the flesh, the heart cuts the soul. Musou no Hitotachi was by no means as simple as merely splitting an island.
Musou, meaning to cast aside all distracting thoughts in one's heart, solely to unleash a single strike to eliminate the person before one's eyes. In this regard, it was somewhat similar to Tsubame Gaeshi.
Because when Shiki used Tsubame Gaeshi, her mind was also incredibly clear, otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to achieve dimensional folding.
So, what if the two were combined?
Boom!
Dazzling electro element light burst forth from around Shiki, illuminating the entire dark cloud in golden yellow. Then, enveloped in the lightning, Shiki opened her eyes.
Tsubame Gaeshi: Musou
Unbeknownst to anyone, three golden lines, stretching for thousands of meters, appeared in the sky above Seirai Island; they did not form a huge light curtain like the Musou no Hitotachi, nor did they produce deafening sounds.
There were only slender threads and the cut thunder.
Shiki held nothing back; all three slashes were aimed at the lines of death, and the golden lines perfectly overlapped on the Thunderbird's massive body.
"Chirp!"
