The air around Geto and Yuka was tense and displaced. A strong breeze blew their hair around as their cursed energy twirled around them, reinforcing their bodies.
Geto calmly watched Yuka and Rika, sensing the strong cursed energy around them. Occasionally, his eyes would wander off into the distance, explosions and the sounds of fighting reaching his ears.
Maki and the cursed spirits he released were still fighting, but Geto knew it would only be able to hold her back for a few minutes max.
"Rika... Are you ready?" Yuka got into a stance, her katana pointing at Geto as she asked.
"Rika is ready to smash some flies into the dirt for Yuka!" Rika replied with an eerie grin, the air around her distorting as a massive amount of pink cursed energy shot out.
Boom!
The ground rumbled, sending debris and rocks flying out like bullets, all while the area around Yuka and Rika started shaking from the weight of Rika's cursed energy.
"Such cursed energy! Dare I say, it might even be as much as the legendary Curse user, Ryomen Sukuna~"
Geto spoke to Yuka, smiling in amusement and greed as he watched Yuka and Rika. Yuka and Rika ignored him, their cursed energy a towering pillar around their bodies.
Boom!
The guard was in as Rika and Yuka rushed towards Geto and his cursed spirits. Geto waved his hand quickly, sending Kappa at Yuka, while Tamamo flew at Rika.
Splash!
Kappa dropped into the ground, sending earth droplets into the air as if it were liquid. With a loud boom, Kappa rushed towards Yuka like a shark, his turtle shield pooking oiut on the surface of the rippling ground.
"KAKAKA!"
Kappa laughed as he jumped out of the ground, a swirling mass of earth and rock in his palm, acting like liquid. With a punch, he sent it towards Yuka as if a thousand raindrops.
Yuka dodged to the side, her cheek grazed by a raindrop, while the already destroyed building behind her collapsed, skewered by the raindrops.
"Die!"
Yuka let out a groan as she slashed her sword down, covered in Positive Energy. Kappa's eyes widened at the threat, while Geto, behind, watched without shock.
Kappa dropped back into the ground, barely dodging the slash from Yuka.
Boom!
An explosion erupted from behind Yuka as Rika smashed her fists into the ground, covered in massive amounts of cursed energy. Tamamo appeared behind her, sending blasts of pure cursed energy.
Boom!
Rika was sent flying, her skin burning into charcoal, which quickly fell, revealing newly healed skin. Rika's eye bulged in rage, sending a beam of cursed energy at Tamamo.
"DIEEEE!!!"
Tamamo vanished from Rika's senses, bursting like a bubble as her beam went through, ploughing a massive trench spanning tens of meters forward.
While Rika was distracted by rage, a figure appeared behind her.
Clap!
Bishamonten sneaked up behind Rika, and with a loud clap, he touched her. Immediately, Rika spun around, smashing a hand towards him, only to miss by a wide margin as if she tripped forward.
Pew!
A beam of tangible energy rushed out from Bishamonten's hands, shooting back into Rika. The luck that was sucked away was converted into bad luck.
Boom!
In the distance, Yuka parried a beam of liquid earth, sending it straight towards Rika, smashing her into the distance with a shockwave.
'Shoot! I need to deal with this cursed spirit before Geto decides to join in!' Yuka glared at Kappa, her hands shaking from effort as she realised she was behind in strength.
The ground, which turned into liquid, still had its original mass and weight, so it was much stronger in terms of attack than if it were water. The force behind every attack was lethal.
Yuka's eyes flashed with determination as she jumped forward, slashing towards the Kappa's head. The Kappa lowered into the ground, dogging by an inch, before thrusting its palm at Yuka's stomach.
Yuka's stomach rippled before a massive burst of intense cursed energy, mixed with liquid rock and earth, tore through her guts, blowing a hole clean through her.
"Agh!" Yuka groaned in pain, her eyes wide and her pupils trembling at the burning ache as she took the hit.
"Hmm?"
Geto watched in surprise as Yuka was thrown onto the ground, her stomach showing a hole the size of a fist. He narrowed her eyes, waiting for her to heal, but to his confusion, she didn't.
'Could it be that her reversed cursed technique comes from Rika? If that's the case, then with Bishamonten taking her luck, she might not be able to share it with Yuka,' Geto analysed with narrowed eyes.
In the distance, Rika was having trouble; every attack of hers was stronger than Tamamo and Bishamonten, but her luck was bad, missing most of her attacks, while falling straight into theirs.
"Take her down,"
Geto directed Kappa towards Yuka, attacking her while bleeding out on the ground. Yuka's eyes were covered with her hands as she curled up on the ground in real pain.
Swoosh!
Kappa's hand, with a ball of water twirling in his palm, lowered towards Yuka's head, intending to end her life in an instant.
Shing!
Yuka jumped up, severing the Kappa's hand in an instant, her sword covered in massive amounts of positive energy. Kappa shrieked in pain, his severed hand turning into ash in a second.
With another lunge, Yuka stabbed into his body, pumping positive energy into his insides. For a second, nothing happened... Before Kappa exploded into a rain of flesh and bones.
"Shit! Do you know how hard it was to get a Special Grade cursed spirit in my collection, you retarded dumbass?!!" Geto's eyes bulged with anger as he felt his connection with Kappa be severed and vanish.
Yuka wiped away the blood that splattered onto her cheek, using her reversed cursed technique to heal the hole in her stomach and the cut on her cheek.
"Shut your genocidal ass up. I do not care about your troubles. Now, get ready to die for everything you did," Yuka looked at Geto with a cold face, a sneer on the corner of her mouth.
"Oh, really? Are you willing to go this far to save those non-sprcerer monkeys? What's so great about them? They are stupid, violent, and weak! Why should you try so hard to save them?!!" Geto cursed loudly as he clenched his hand around Playful Cloud, a vicious expression on his face.
Yuka sneered at Geto's words.
"You know, when you told us about your genocidal plan back then, the first thing that I thought about you was..."
"This guy is so pathetic."
"What?"
Geto paused, his face going blank at Yuka's words. Yuka chuckled, a warm and gentle expression climbing back onto her face.
"Don't be angry, Geto-san. I am sure that there are many more people out there, more pathetic than you," Yuka continued, causing veins of anger to burst out on Geto's forehead.
Boom!
"ARGHHHH!! STOP DODGING AND FIGHT ME!!!"
In the distance, Rika let out a loud shriek of anger and frustration. Bishamonten flashed away, shooting beams of cursed energy continuously at Rika, who practically walked into them, even while trying to dodge.
She attacked the air, caught in illusions of Tamamo, and attacked from two different directions. Rika couldn't do anything against the two; their cursed techniques rendered her attacks useless.
Yuka looked back, and she narrowed her eyes.
"I had had enough of this. I don't like it when people bully Rika, or anyone for that matter," Yuka covered her mouth, her eyes cold and detached.
"Don't Move,"
